The Denver Nuggets have captured their first NBA Championship in one of the more impressive postseason runs, especially from Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. A small market team has won the NBA Title, the fifth new Champion in as many years, a possible sign that there is a new age of parody in the Association that many have clamored for. What did the OKC Thunder learn from the Champion Nuggets?
Denver dominated most of the season before coasting to the Finish line post-All-Star break on their way to 53 wins. The Nuggets lost just four playoff games this season, turning in a 16-4 record since April 16th.
