Disagree. Heavy weight lifting + Heavy eating and it can be done. It is hard but certainly possible.

Very few outside of Boston appreciated how dominant our season was.

We're getting close to seeing this again. So many wide open corner threes, thank you unselfishness and ball movement.

Cs led the league last season in corner 3FG% at 44.1%. Although we took the third fewest from there in terms of 3-pt rate.

As a percentage of total threes or of total shots? Just curious.

Watson is about to lie down on the floor. Jays and Al with hands on knees. And Derrick's like, "when does the practice start?"

Sometimes organizations are forced to play players to keep the fans coming even though that contract may stop the hard work that got them to get that contract. In 07/08 it seemed that every player that signed a big or small contract knew what the end game had to be and they made sure the investment that was made in them turned into that banner. JB signed that record deal, locked up his future but he knew that there was still a journey to be finished, #18. I feel the same way this season with all the contracts given out. All those players see another journey in front of them even though for a few their future set with that money.

A city like Denver drools over 1 championship. They'll remember it forever, and I think that resonates with the players as well. 60 years without a trophy and Jokic brought you a championship. Kroenke has all the money in the world and some because of his ties with Walmart. Money will never be an issue. But at the end of the day, the fans finally got their championship. The roster gets mishandled and any type of run is over IMO. But, players get paid, they'll win games and when they don't have another parade they'll always say "hey, after 60 years we brought you a trophy". All is forgotten.

I really believe in the players that the C's have and they understand legacy. If all the media clowns say that "dynasty's are done", that roster is one that wants to prove that statement wrong. Even if they all got paid.
