After winning the Finals this year, the nuggets are pretty much bringing back the same team without Bruce brown but other teams like the bucks, Celtics and suns have improved. Imo I think the next 2-3 championships will be won by either the Bucks or Celtics and I think the Nuggets will make the finals again this year but the only way they might win again in the future is to either make a trade for a 3rd star or get much better depth.
The difference is our team is entirely in its prime, or not even there yet.
Yeah, Bucks fans said the same thing. Lakers fans thought they were set with AD being relatively young too. Anything can happen.
injuries made AD go from a top 3 player and top 3 pf of all time into a fringe top 10 guy.
They only got past the second round because Giannis injured kyrie out of frustration (and because harden pulled his hammy). I think most people were aware that the bucks ring was one of those “once in a lifetime” events.
Nobody considered them the best team in the league and nobody outside of Milwaukee considered Giannis to be the best player in the league after KD outplayed him.
On the other hand the nuggets bodied a mostly healthy suns, lakers, heat with jokic looking like he was easily the best in the world.
As long as jokic, Jamal, Gordon stay healthy, nuggets will continue to contend.
None of those teams were healthy.
I agree anything can happen but those are some god awful examples. OKC with Durant, Westbrook, Harden going to the finals super early then never again comes to mind as a better example
So you agree with my overall point yet chose to argue anyways. Go find a friend.
I’m not arguing lol, I’m simply telling you your examples are shit
