Decisive win. Congratulations to the Nuggets.

This is a team that has 'Nowhere near done' feel to it. Next step.

TBF if you don't like watching Jokic, or at least respect how truly great he is, you simply don't like watching basketball.

Add another potential destination for Nick Nurse. Doc should be relieved.

They're not winning in 2017/2018 without KD.


Who's piling on?


A few here, Twitter and r/warriors.



Hmm, I guess I can understand. Nobody likes a dynasty cut short. People will always wonder how many rings Shaq & Kobe would have accumulated if they could just keep it together. I assume many have that same feeling with KD/Steph.

Booker with 12 points.
It wasn't sustainable to repeat those shooting nights in each game of this series.

But you can't go with only 12 points either in the most important game of the season.

KD looking to move to Tucson as Phoenix didn't fit his persona.

This was a great series. Basketball fans should have really enjoyed this.

Would have loved to see Booker advance as he and KD in a Finals series would be epic (imagine KD/Booker v Tatum/Brown) but they were just outplayed by a better team.

This Denver team though, just simply brilliant basketball.
