Rock ... I don't even know where you go from here lmao .. like Nuglife has been doing you in for years. The FT's, the missed 3's .. what do you even look like optimistic? lol Shoutout all the older members as well. I've been following the team for like 18+ years and am 32. Couldn't imagine what it's like for some of the folks on here who are 50+ and been around the Nuggets for a lifetime. The first championship team I was a fan of was Rick Barry’s 1975 Warriors. I grew up in Northern California wine country. Moved to Denver in 1984 and saw my first Nuggets game in April that year. Became a fan right away. Fat Lever was my favorite Nugget in the 80’s since I saw his senior season at Arizona State. He had 40 points in his last college home game. Saw him at a Scottsdale bar that night and congratulated him. He was super nice. Kiki was also my favorite when he was here as he went to UCLA right after I graduated. I actually shot baskets with him by accident in Pauley Pavilion in 1978. My original handle here (look at my profile) was GoKikiGo, then GoBearupGo, now GBG. It has been a long journey of basketball fandom for me, from watching John Wooden’s Bill Walton UCLA team in 1973 to now. But this is as good as it gets. Jokic is a perfect human being and player. Or as close to perfection as humans can be. Wooden was like that as a coach. I am lucky as a hoops fan. |

Has to be insane. We all just got to witness an All-Time great season by Jokic, Murray in the playoffs, and the Nuggets as a whole. Who would have thought as Nugget fans that would be a possibility. |

We all got lucky, including the players. Got through entire playoffs with no significant injuries. That was key. |

Started following basketball and the nuggets when I was 17 when we drafted Melo. Use to skip class and go and hack the library computers to watch games. It’s all worth it and feel the journey has just begun. We’re truly blessed to have a player like Nikola Jokic dress in Nuggets threads xx haha same here I remember putting the NBA on 1HD when it was around on the library TV |

Hopefully Gillespie wins the job but you don't bet the season on that. |

Congrats to the Nuggets!
What a great team. And, you can't have a great victory without a great opponent. Miami was tough. They have nothing to be ashamed of.
And, btw, this is from a Warriors fan who really appreciated how an injured Nuggets team competed last year.
I also appreciated good sportsmanship and clean play by the Nuggets and Heat.

The one weird thing about playing into June and winning the Championship; It's only a little over 4 months before the start of the next season.
Not quite the 5-6 months we're used to after getting bounced in the first or second round in previous years.

Not quite the 5-6 months we're used to after getting bounced in the first or second round in previous years. In less than a month we'll be watching Watson, Gillespie, White, and Kamagate in Summer League. Assuming they'll have Braun skip it. |

I still don't know what to say other than the Nuggets are NBA Champions! I've literally been waiting decades for this moment and it's sweet!
