Watch as Mike Malone Says Denver Has a Goal to Become NBA Champions as “Outrageous” As It Sounds to Outsiders

The Denver Nuggets do it again. After falling behind 3-1 for the second series in a row, the Nuggets defeat the Los Angeles Clippers 104-89 to advance to the Western Conference Finals and take on the Los Angeles Lakers. They become the first team in NBA history to win back to back series after falling behind 3-1, and Nuggets fans should be very happy that they have a young nucleus who will compete for years to come.

Coach Malone had high praise for Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray, who finished the game with 40 points, outscoring both Paul George and Kawhi Leonard combined and also detailed the belief the Nuggets held to pursue an NBA championship, even if no one else believed it to be possible.
