Denver Nuggets 2023 NBA Champs!

Surprised this wasnt already here! This is my team, my boyhood team, and a team that I worked for a couple of seasons as a ballboy/locker room attendant. In all those years, you could barely find any Denver Nuggets merchandise in the city of Denver! I had an Alex English T-shirt (found only at the arena) a Fat Lever T-Shirt and a Michael Adams T-Shirt and I never once saw another kid wearing any of them. This was IN Denver!

So, to see my team, a team that barely ever had any kind of a following, climb the mountain and win a championship, well I just love those guys and it was a moment I never thought I would get to enjoy. Jokic, Murray, Gordon, KCP, Green, Braun, Brown, MPJ and all the rest, you guys are immortals!

Congrats! I don’t have a favorite NBA team but I like this Nuggets team. I remember when Mutombo and his Nuggets team beat the Sonics in the playoffs years ago. Loved that series.

I find it funny how some fans seem mad that Jokic just doesn't seem to care much about winning like it's just a job to him lol

Funny enough, I was there for Mutombo's first ever practice with the Nuggets after they drafted him and Mark Macon (Bust). Thats how far back I go to when I worked for the team, LOL. Mutombo was a class act. I got invited to the team dinner his rookie year and had this raspberry colored string tie that Mutombo thought was the funniest damn thing. It was a riot to hang out with those guys. Oddly enough that upset (Seattle series) happened just after I got out of OSUT training at FT Knox (combination of AIT and Basic). I had been following the series in the paper, and made it to Houston in time to watch game 5 with my family. I then saw them in the next round against Utah before heading to S. Korea, to this day the last NBA game I have attended in person (Army has taken me all over the world the last 30 years but not to any NBA games).

Oh he cares about winning, and not letting his team down. Its just that basketball is not more important to him than at least 5 other things, notably family and horses. I find it pretty refreshing honestly. The league has no clue how to promote a guy like that though.

I’m a Denver resident and was stoked as hell when they won. They dominated like the Denver Avalanche did the prior year! Awesome to be a sports fan in The Mile High City!

I don't have a favorite team, but I always enjoy watching. I recently started using https://ggbetph.net/en/ and so far I have only positive impressions. Their platform provides a wide range of sporting events to bet on and good odds. I like their interface and ease of use. I had no problems with withdrawals, the process was quite fast. As for support, they provide online chat where you can get help with any questions. GGbet is licensed and has a pretty good reputation among players. They also cooperate with several major sporting events, which in my opinion shows that they take their business seriously.
