I was a fan when they were at their worst in 1997, winning a paltry 11 games.

This is the farthest they have ever progressed, having just swept the Lakers in the Western Conference Championship.

They have a very good chance of winning it all, something I never thought I would see.
I watched the Nuggets in the 80s too lots of games at Big Mac with my dad, and I absolutely hate the Lakers; the team that always rained on the the Nuggets parade. It felt so good to see them beat the crap out of the Lakers for a change. Its hard to watch the NBA, I disagree with them so much and I dislike professional athletes and sports. It's a such a conflict to watch them, but after so many years of watching them fall short, I have to continue watching the Jokic era; he is not the typical selfish asshole athlete who sells out everyone for fame and fortune. I'll be done when Jokic is done. If they play the same as they did the Lakers, they'll win it; was a great start last night. It was cool seeing the pregame interview with Dan Issel. I hope they have more with Alex English and Fat Lever...and Mt Mutombo. After all the hours spent watching game after game for so many years, it all comes down to three more wins.
