The Denver Nuggets had an impressive run to win the 2023 NBA championship, and there’s no doubt that they were the best team in the league this year. They beat a number of difficult opponents, such as the Los Angeles Lakers and the Phoenix Suns, on the way to their championship.
There is no doubt that many who consistently follow basketball were able to appreciate what the Nuggets were able to do. One of those people was former president Barack Obama, who praised them for winning their first championship in franchise history. Obama is notably a huge fan of the NBA.
“Congrats to the Denver Nuggets and the remarkable finals MVP Nikola Jokić for bringing home the franchise’s first NBA Championship!”

There’s no doubt that this 2022-23 Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic will be remembered well in history. Being the first to bring the championship to a franchise stands out in the history books, and it is clear that the team was able to do something special.
Nikola Jokic had a spectacular Finals, averaging 30.2 PPG, 14.0 RPG, and 7.2 APG against the Miami Heat. There’s no doubt that he had one of the best Finals series of all time, and he deservedly won the Finals MVP.
The Denver Nuggets Could Become A Dynasty
There’s no doubt that the Denver Nuggets have the ability to keep this core together for a while, and their championship window is wide open. This is only the beginning, and Mike Malone has already stated that he wants them to become a dynasty.
“Pat Riley said something many years ago, I used to have it on my board when I was head coach in Sacramento. It talks about the evolution in this game and how you go from a nobody to an upstart, from an upstart to a winner, winner to a contender, a contender to a champion. The last step after a champion is to be a dynasty, so we are not satisfied. We accomplished something this franchise has never done before. We have a lot of young, talented players in that locker room. We just showed through 16 playoff wins what we’re capable of on the biggest stage of the world.”
It will be interesting to see whether the Denver Nuggets will actually become a dynasty. They definitely have the ability to go back-to-back, and we’ll see what happens in the future.
