If the Denver Nuggets will finish the series next game there will be no doubt they deserve the championship because they work hard to stay at the top in the season games and got the number 1 spot in the western conference until they made it to the finals. Also Jokic need to get that Championship to prove to everyone he didn't need to go to a superteam to get a championship like others.

On NBA , what can I say more ? let Jokic win it man and let him go back to his horses because I really enjoy to see his videos regarding this topic.
Well, it's just going to be a matter of time and maybe by tomorrow, he's going to win it. If the Nuggets win the match in game 5 then this is all settled.

That man is a treasure outside the basketball game and a ring should be well deserved for him and for Denver as well.
And it won't be surprising if he's going to make another standard for most teams upon taking over a championship. That's like a tough standard but if teams see a prospect just like him, they'll get him for sure. Just like what we're seeing on the rumored top 1 pick this upcoming draft whom is Wenbanyama.

Did you guys heard and saw the boo's McGregor got last night ? Hahah it was hilarious to watch and hear those fans booing him even if I have big respect for McGregor and what he did for sports some years ago.

I didn't see the Mcgregor stuff, but I don't think there will be an issue regarding Jokic winning the title. Miami has to win the next 3 and so far in the series they cannot even win 2 in a row. Denver will be crowned the champs IMO and it could happen tomorrow night.

This may be the most ridiculous and useless ad I've ever seen. It was not difficult to predict such an outcome. McGregor has a great power that he cannot control, and this power harms everyone. I think it is a very bad thing that they broadcast violence on television in this way.
Why does he strike once more after throwing the first punch? This is not the show, it seems like he wants to hurt the other person. Fortunately, the mascot's health is recovering

I saw McGregor but I didn;t know there were chants of booing him. I thought he is a Miami Heat fan so that should not happen.

About the championship, Giannis had 1, Embiid had nothing, so yes give this to Jokic this time and maybe Embiid can have it next. Three big men who had been fighting for the MVP race getting their championship rings. But I seriously doubt that will be the case.
I think the Denver Nuggets will reign for 2 more years, Golden State Warriors on the sidelines and Boston Celtics the same. It's not like the Nuggets are lazy, they won't be the top of the West if they are. They worked for it and put themselves at the top of the league just so to prove they are not the team to mess with and have the upper hand on homecourt advantage.

I do love what is happening now. Give the championship to those who deserve it and I think the Nuggets do so. This is why I do believe that Jokic should've been the Kia Season MVP, the value of him is just too much to not claim it. But the media messed it up just so he won't be equaled to the likes of Larry Bird and others who claimed the three-time consecutive season MVP. It's wrong, it became like a political agenda.

It was supposed to be an advertisement for his new brand, but it turned out to be a disaster. Of course, you can understand how the fans would feel. It was a strong punch that no longer carries a positive message. Instead, it seemed to promote harm rather than peace, in other words.

He may be a simple man, and while we may have limited information about his life outside the NBA, his performance within the league is almost perfect. Not only is he currently the best big man, but he is also widely regarded as the best player in the NBA. If his team wins Game 5, he will make history for himself and his team.

Miami is adjusting and really trying everything to win but the talents of Denver's squad is really  hard to handle.

It's a 2-way advantages for the  Nuggets, both offense and defense are really working and the players
are showing everything to do their job the right ways.

Something that adding the pressure for Miami, they are good but once their shooting percentage is
bad, expect the outcome will be the same just like how game 3 and game 4 ended.


There's only a very small chance that the Miami Heat will come back, but even if they lose in the finals again, they have still done a great job to reach this far. Miami could potentially pull off an upset in game 5, and if they win game 6, then who knows, we might have a thrilling game 7. I understand that it is unlikely to happen, but as they say, the series is not over until the Nuggets have secured 4 wins.

The only thing that Denver lacks is deep playoff experience which would've made it interesting if they faced Boston or Milwaukee in this finals. And with a championship ring, this team might be even more dangerous in the following years should they remain healthy.

Of they basically remain in tact this team will compete for the chip for the next 5 years.  They have a winning formula that can be repeated over and over.  Having jokic on the floor eliminates of a lot of the possibility of long stretches of losses.  Next years topics will be 3 things: can wemby play in the NBA to the same level, can anyone beat the Nuggets, and who and it can be anyone, will come out of the east.

I'm glad that Denver finally completed its championship team. And in a season where the league's superstars are healthy like Bron and KD and a healthy GSW. A ring will definitely boost their gaming experience and morale so there is a high possibility that this team is capable of building a dynasty if they stick together and remain healthy.

Wemby will be drafted by the Spurs which has a historic record of even developing players that were drafted late. The Spurs turned big men Robinson and Duncan into superstars too. Coach Pop albeit old might be called to return next season. I am curious about what will happen to Boston but if Tatum and Brown stick together, they will remain strong and they're still young. Giannis physically is still in his prime so the Bucks will remain a threat as well.





Well in some news Miami Heat Mascot Burnie in some skit during the halftime of the NBA when McGregor is promoting his cooling pain relief spray Bernie a glove started to approach McGregor but the Irish MMA fighter suddenly punches up Burnie and then drops him on the ground to follow up another punch when I have witnessed it, looks like it is not just a controlled punch and maybe Conor McGregor is thinking that the Mascot will protect the person inside which is very difficult to tell, but that punch has power into it, the Man behind the Mascot has reportedly taken to the emergency room and was hospitalized, and have given a pain reliever and now are doing great at home, here is the link on Twitter of the assault on the Mascot https://twitter.com/ComplexSports/status/1667358119561756673?s=20

And Connor McGregor is finally back in the winning column at last. I just did not expect it to happen during the NBA Finals. But that was crazy, any trained professional fighter can of course put the man inside in danger. It would've been nice if Connor McGregor wore a mascot of himself to lessen the punch impact although his pride won't allow him to do that. This reminds me of Deontay Wilder punching a mascot when he was invited to be a guest at a show. Poor man's jaw was broken.

Unless there's a turn of events where Miami snatch the title away from them, which is far, in my personal opinion, from happening.

Jokic will be the finals MVP as all of us witnessed how great he was in all aspects. The numbers state
it all and there's nothing that can steal the title aside from Miami winning the finals, and then again, it was too far
to happen, one more game and it might be the end of this series.
3 games remaining with a result while the Nuggets have a 3 win advantage.
I'm sure the Nuggets will finish the game faster where in game 5 they can have a win so Miami has lost hope of winning.
Nikola Jokic will perform better and it is possible that he will also become MVP in this season.
This would prove to be the strongest in the West region would be victorious.

I think it is already expected that the Miami Heat does have some disadvantage in Game 5 because what happened in the recent games did really put some trauma into their heads as no matter what they have done, they still fail to rally and to survive almost each game in their series. But it's still too early to decide about that mate, the Heat is no that poor in-terms of their performance as they too have managed to have a seat in the Finals, so we will see in the next game what will they do but I do agree that series might have been finished already.

I agree that it is not going to be a comeback, they tried their best but their best wasn't enough. Jokic is just way too good for this league and they are doing something that can't be matched. This was one of the reasons why I thought Doncic should have gone to Denver, yes they didn't had some high pick, they had 14th pick, but if they packaged it whatever they had at the time, maybe they could have gotten the pick, imagine a scenario where Doncic and Jokic plays together, that would be insane, their pick and roll would have been even better than Murray and Jokic.

In any case, right now Jokic is unstoppable and he is on the way to win the title, he deserved it and he should have been MVP again as well if you ask me but he doesn't look like the kind of guy who cares about it at all, so FMVP must feel better.

And I guess it's a blessing in disguise for Jokic losing the MVP to Joel Embiid this season. But what's important and what others players are also saying, that it's the championship that counts, not the individual award although it's good to have the trophy in your room. So I guess this will be the sweetest MVP that Jokic will get if ever they are going to win the next game at their homecourt and be the NBA champions. And if we will go back and see him reaching this heights, maybe we can say that it's just a matter of time and all the pieces working together. Him and then a healthy Jamay Murray and Porter Jr, and add Gordon who seems to evolved as he as obviously a high flyer and a dunker. But when we moves to the Nuggets team, his role has change.

Blessing in disguise to the fact that he inspired to perform more better than him. It also shows that Jokic deserve to get that trophy but guess this one happens. But still its fine since Jokic know is near to get his first ever Finals MVP and get his team their first ever championship ring. For sure this will be big for them since this is the first time happen to them. I bet this series will end up on game 5 since we can see that Miami cannot handle the Nuggets roster.

Or what if Jokic has the Jordan mentality? took it personal that's why he bring out the best in himself and now maybe showing those who didn't vote on him in getting the MVP. But as we all know, he was a clear winner for this year, so I guess he deserves it more for being the FMVP and his team bagging their 1st ever championship. So yes, you can call it blessing for him now.

Just one game more for the Nuggets, we also should give props to coach Malone, he is one of the most underrated coach. We took about coach Spo adjustment in how he bring the Heat to the finals. But Malone also did well in inspiring him team to perform every game, win or lose.

Nuggets is the team that have the best offense and best defense in the league. They don't only rely on Jokić, that's the best part. When Heat defend Murray and Jokić with 3 players, the others punish the defensive mistake. Aaron Gordon played his career game, Bruce Brown scored when all eyes on Murray and Jokić, KCP made two critical defense back to back and these all made the difference. Nuggets will finish this series at home, that's clear. And it's not Heat's fault, they faced against the best team in the NBA.
That's correct and it was proven in Game 4 where Jokic was in foul trouble. Every player stepped up their game. Bruce Brown made some crucial shots that put the dagger to the Miami Heat and erased their hopes to return in the 4th quarter.
Denver Nuggets is just too much for them and if we breakdown the win of the Miami Heat in Game 2 at the home of the Nuggets, we could say it was pretty hard work before they can claim one win against them.
Now, they will be back at home and I doubt Jokic and the whole Nuggets team will let that be repeated. Protect the home and show their fans how good they are, and we should not also forget their playoff home record of 9-1. That's something on paper, they are just defeated once and the odds for them to win again in their home is so high.
Once the Nuggets start well in the first quarter, I highly doubt they will let the Heat catch up. Consider it almost over as it will also break their confidence while it will boost the energy of the Nuggets.
But I am curious what tricks Coach Spo has, he already tried different tactics but it seems like it's not working. We will see on Game 5.

We just have to look back as how the Nuggets swept the Lakers and we can see that it's almost a repeat for it though, except that the Heat was very lucky to steal game 2 from them. Otherwise it will be another sweep for them in the next game.

It's really hard to beat a team that each players knows it's role. It's not that deep to be honest, but their players knows when to step up their game and even though they don't have the experience as a team in this kind of games, they go and play like there is no tomorrow. So yeah, most likely in the next game, it might be over. Not sure what coach Spo can do as the Nuggets is unstoppable at this point.

It means that the other Denver Nuggets players are not slack, this is bad news for the Miami Heat, and I guess some positions were been given to some players to be on the offense and the defense, for some purpose like this, and I think that the Denver Nuggets have made a great thing in giving Aaron Gordon the offensive position he deserves, this is not some shifting position but the other team members have stepped up to the occasion to their part in giving the Denver Nuggets the 3rd win in this finals,

What's weird about Jokic is that, he has made many achievement, broke many records already, and has made some historic numbers, but whenever the media ask him on how he feel about this accolades, he always say "Not that much" like he doesn't care about that achievements at all.

That Game 4 just showed how much difference the players of Nuggets and Heat have. The Heat players have the will to win, but the Nuggets have the will to win, players who can step up when needed, and talented players. With this 5th straight road win, the Nuggets have the complete control, and on the road to win the title already. Only 1 team in NBA Finals history has won the title after having a 3-1 deficit. Lebron James, Kyrie Irving and the Cavaliers back in 2016.

Anyway, I will share again some of the historic moments that the Nuggets have made in Game 4. (saw it online)
- Jokic, and Murray are the 3rd pair of teammates in NBA history to have 500+ points, 100+ rebounds, and 100+ assists in one postseason.
- Jokic is the first player in NBA history to record 250 rebounds, and 150 assists in a single postseason.
- New playoff-career high for Aaron Gordon with 27 points.
- Murray joins Magic Johnson as the only player in NBA history with 10+ assists in 4 straight Finals games.
- Murray is the only player in NBA history to have 10+ assists in his first 4 NBA Finals games.
- Brown, and Gordon are the 5th set of teammates to have 20+ points on 70%+ FG in a Finals game.

Truly the Nuggets are just amazing not only in the regular season, but even in the playoffs. Kudos to the Heat team for being the 2nd 8th-seeded team in NBA history to clinch the NBA Finals, but I think that the Nuggets deserves the championship this season.
