  1. Never heard of you guys but this video popped up and I watched the entire thing. Y’all got a subscriber.

  2. Jokic was like 10 assists away from AVERAGING a 30 point triple double in a 20 game play-off run. I must say pretty bad stat padding…

  3. I'm a nuggets fan, so the idea of a dynasty is obviously exciting, but I think it's a bit preemptive to be talking about that. It's hard enough to win a championship once, let alone multiple times. I think if they win one more then we can start talking about a potential dynasty. I'm just happy we finally got one lol

  4. also they beat 3 PLAY IN TEAMS and a pheonix team with a 2 man roster how is that a great playoff run??

  5. I believe we as fans were robbed of what could’ve been, the greatest season ever played by a center. Jokić shut down the last month and a half because of the race baiting in the MVP vote.Anyone that watched the team all year understands this. He would have played to stay in the first seed.However,The NBA was robbed by a racist / anti Jokić narrative .

  6. Agree 100%. There’s a Wild West out there so repeating will not be so easy. The only recent repeaters are the 2018 & 2019 championships. But I think at least they will take one more.

  7. As a nuggets fan, I know how hard it must’ve been as Blazers fans to make this. That rivalry the last few years got intense. Credit you guys for putting together a great video going back over the years for this team, truly fulfilling.

  8. Giannis did come close to get back to the finals
    Without Middleton he pushed the Celtics to 7
    This year they didn't get close

  9. I know lots of nuggets fans who were confident we could win the chip as soon as we made the Bruce and kcp trades, myself included. Lots of nuggets content creators have videos of it, even seen more than handful of large bets on them to win placed in the preseason so I don't really understand the "one random nuggets fan might've picked them" part

  10. Vid is so good, the contest, the way you complement each other, like Nuggtes best duo, really good work guys, very refreshing

  11. Bet you in another year, this team would look like a team that’s “unfair” when they contend for another championship. It’s going to be hilarious how much they are hated compared to how much they loved right now.

  12. I think the nuggets will win 2 more championships out of the next 5. So by the time Jokic's current contract is done, they will have 3.

  13. The Blazers have not been the same since Paul Allen died. Give the team to Phil Knight. Portland is an embarrassment. They suck.

  14. Lol this is fascinating to see my Nuggets from a Portland perspective. I won’t say that I knew last summer that we’d win the title this year, but I definitely thought we had a shot when we FINALLY got the 3&D guys we’ve needed for years. But nobody had any idea what Jamal/MPJ would look like until early January (including them). That’s when I knew.

    As for dynasty, I completely agree with guys. Back-to-back is absolutely on the table, especially if Bruce comes back. Then see where we go from there.

  15. Millsap seems a "meet salary floor/give a vet a payday".

    They just dumped Gallinari… so that leaves Jokic on a second round contract and Murray on a rookie contract – similar to Lou Dortz's deal in OKC (except "loyalty" instead of "experience").

    Millsap was "prototype AG" – especially if you saw him in Utah…

    You see his contract and kinda expect "20/10 team leader" – but his experience and "stretch big" game with solid NBA PF body made him really valuable to them.

    Replace him with a prime version and you have more of the "lob/dunk" threat AG is now

  16. Laker fan here! I actually had Nuggets winning it all from the start of the szn lol I thought we could at least take a couple of games off but jokic was too much

  17. Yo, great video, you got yourself a new sub. I just released a super similar video on the same day on my channel, it was interesting to see the differences in how we laid the story out!
