It’s officially official: the Denver Nuggets have claimed the 2023 NBA Title. It was a gross, ugly game 5 that had me shadow-boxing my TV, but at least we got some solid entertainment this Monday night. There was a lot of Jokic, a lot of Jimmy Butler choking (more on that later), and a lot of tears as Denver hasn’t won an NBA title ever. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I was actually happy for Jokic and Murray and all the other chicken Nuggets. My generational hating streak has come to an end I can peacefully accept that Denver was the best team this year. It’s still bullshit how much better they shot from 3 in the WCF vs. NBA Finals, but it’s time to let that go.
As for Miami, there is only one person to blame: Jimmy Butler. The performance I witnessed with my own two eyes tonight was simply disgraceful. Until the last few minutes of the 4th quarter, he had 8 points on 2-11 shooting. He kept driving to the basket then throwing some lame duck kickout pass to a role player for a bricked 3-pointer. How much do you expect your role players to carry you Jimmy? I can’t believe we had Heat fans calling for you to have a statue instead of Lebron James. Miami Lebron would have NEVER let this happen (excluding 2011 when this did happen). In fact, if he ever had role players play half as good as these Heat did, he’d have at least 3 more rings probably. Jimmy FRAUD was born tonight. His “clutch” buckets shouldn’t even count because they only consisted of lucky ass 3-pointers and bullshit free throws. I’m sure he’ll go 5-5 will cool quotes in the post game presser though. I’d put my life savings that “We’ll be back” will find its way out of his mouth tonight.
I don’t want this article to distract from the real story tonight: Lebron James. Wow will he and the Lakers bounce back to dethrone Denver in 2024? Next on Undisputed.
The NBA season is now over and I am sad. I have no idea what I’m going to write about for the next 3 months. I know absolutley nothing about baseball or really any sport that isn’t football or basketball. I could just blindly throw some MLB picks on the site. I doubt my 10 loyal subscribers will even notice. Maybe I could even just give up this blog and let 6 months of work go to waste. All options are currently being considered. The job is finished, we can go home now.
