While the Golden State Warriors take the NBA by storm, the Denver Nuggets continue to silently build a deadly team.
If you are looking for who could be the Cinderella team in the NBA, look no further than the Denver Nuggets.
The Denver Nuggets are silently constructing a team who very well could be the one to not only take down the Golden State Warriors, but possibly even end their dynasty if you are feeling very ambitious.
With a core consisting of Nikola Jokic, Gary Harris and Jamal Murray, one could make the argument they are the team who matches up best against the Golden State Warriors. We have not even got to guys like Paul Millsap and rookie, Michael Porter Jr. as of yet.
However, if you analyze this team without Golden State in the picture, then you should see the same thing. The Nuggets are truly becoming the NBA’s “Rocky Balboa,” of the league. They continue to work towards de-throning Apollo Creed.
The Nuggets may not be well liked by every NBA fan. The Los Angeles Lakers fans, particularly the ones who like Lonzo Ball. However, there is still something special brewing in the Mile High.
Nikola Jokic is a well liked character and Gary Harris and Jamal Murray are two of the hardest workers in the entire NBA. The team has missed the playoffs by one game in each of the last two years, but are finally ready to make the next stride.
The Nuggets have gone through heartbreak after heartbreak and it is time for them to finally have something to go their way. Denver has assembled a team on paper who is one of the most intriguing squads in the league.
A core which has fans of other NBA teams talking and saying “Watch out for them.”
