NBA 2023-2024

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

To some extent that’s on Malone’s staff for not being able to construct a lineup without him that can play basketball. Like beyond even a talent thing, getting a handful of professionals together who can occasionally run some plays and score and occasionally get a stop. I’ve seen worse combinations do it.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

I will forever be grateful that the Nuggets even got one title. Sports in general are not very good about league parity when the big market teams always dominate free agency. The Nuggets would have never gotten close to a title if they didn't completely strike gold on a fluke late draft pick that landed them literally one of the greatest basketball players of all time. They built the vast majority of their roster through home grown drafting and had enough in the bag to get Aaron Gordon in free agency that put them in position to win, and they did it. This squad is still talented enough for maybe another season or two to contend for the title but their run is almost certainly over after that. Unless the caliber of a guy like Jokic can intrigue high caliber players to take less money to play in Denver on a free agent deal, then they are likely done. They're not gonna strike gold in the draft again, that's for sure.

The Wizards have not made it past the second round of the playoffs since the 70's. I support literally one of the worst franchises in all of sports if not the worst

I've never even seen a good Bullets/Wizards playoff run come to think of it.
