DENVER -- In the biggest fourth quarter in Denver Nuggets history, veteran center DeAndre Jordan had a message for star point guard Jamal Murray during a timeout.
"Go win this game," Jordan said to Murray. "Twelve minutes, bro, and you in history.
"Immortal."
Murray, Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets heeded the call for history Monday night, coming up with championship-winning plays in the final minutes of Game 5 to bring home the Larry O'Brien trophy for the first time in the franchise's 47 years in the league with a 94-89 win over the Miami Heat before an overjoyed Ball Arena.
