They haven't named a series MVP, but it would be surprising if it wasn't Jokic.

It would be incredible if it wasn't Jokic. Interesting series to watch - you can only admire the Miami Heat, Jimmy Butler's heart and Eric Spoelstra's coaching ability, but Butler needs more talent around him on that team. Denver was clearly better all series long, and Jokic is the best player in the league for the third year in a row, even if he got cheated out of the league MVP this year.

NBA has good talent. It’s just too much for me to watch anymore. Maybe I’m old. Maybe tired of wokeness. Maybe just tired.

To be fair, the NBA is the most un-woke of the American sports leagues.

Congratulations to the Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic, the world's best basketball player.

Somewhere, Kendrick Perkins is ventilating some drywall.

Same here. Seems like the NBA is more popular with Blacks and Asians. Hispanics and Whites follow baseball. Football is the America's game right now. Woke Whites and Hispanics like soccer. Canadians are crazy about hockey. Southerners still dig NASCAR. I think that's all the pro sports we have.

Back in the day, I loved the Nuggets.

Had a C-band dish and watched all their games.

Their coach Doug Moe was such a character.

Alex English was the sweetest mid-range player that I have ever seen.

Fat Lever nearly had a quadruple double one night by almost getting ten steals.

T R Dunn was a undersized forward who did everything but score which the Nuggets didn’t need him to do.

They called Michael Adams the long ranger because he could hit the three.

On C-band, you got a live feed with no commercials and the announcer said stuff they didn’t say on the air.

Never forget the Nuggets were playing Magic’s Lakers in the forum.

The Nuggets were behind by two with seconds left and Moe a called time out to draw up a play which the Nuggets did do that much because he hated drawn up offenses.

After he drew up the play the announcers said off air that Moe had gone over to Jack Nicholson and told him the little guy with the three for the win.

The little guy being the 5’9” Michael Adams.

I thing he missed but Doug Moe was going for the win not the tie.

RE: It’s official, he’s the MVP.

Nikolai Jokic has eyes behind the back of his head. I’ve never seen a Center who plays like a passing point guard.

As a Celtics fan…I enjoy seeing the Heat lose. But they were pretty scrappy this year.

Jeff Green is on Denver. He was one of my favorite Celtics.

Two foreigners led the Denver Nuggets to the championship. A Serbian and a Canadian.
