I am 53 and I have been a Nuggets fan since seventh grade. It's late July and I'm still amazed and so proud of the Nuggets for finally winning the NBA Championship. The Nuggets are the definition of the word team. There are no "me" guys on the Nuggets they play like a team. They are not afraid to pass the ball and let somebody else have the shot. These playoffs were truly amazing and I can't wait to see if they can go back to back.

Bro the fact Nikola went out of his way to give everyone a handshake and a pat on the back warms my heart

I cried. I grew up in Colorado watching the Nuggets. My era was the original team of Dan Issel, David Thompson, Bobby Jones, Monty Towe, Chuck Williams, Byron Beck, etc. with Larry Brown as coach. I was 13 when they entered the NBA (yeah, I'm 60 now), and it has been a long long time for this to happen.
I'm glad David Thompson was there to see it, he helped to make the Nuggets a great team all those years ago. Congratulations Denver Nuggets!

It’s good to see new teams win in every sport not just the same teams.

As a nuggets fan for 34 years and how beyond awful we use to be, this by far is incredible. I can’t stop being proud and celebrating. My dad died last year and I can now say dad they finally did it! The nuggets got one!
