One Ring for One Porter
We’re not mentioning the Kroenkes here, so don’t get your hopes up. If you want to dunk on them yourself, go to Twitter and find the worst of @MizzouHoops output last night.
We will, however, take some time to congratulate Michael Porter, Jr., a young guy who didn’t choose to be drafted by the Nuggets and is instead carving out the best NBA career he can have in Denver. Congrats on your ring, Mike!

MPJ had 16 points and 13 rebounds in the Nuggets’ Game 5 victory over the Heat. Let’s take a run through some of the best congratulatory sentiments.

Just witnessed a very very cool moment between Michael Malone and MPJ

MPJ is already passing off the praise, which is deserved in Nikola Jokic’s case.
"I don't know how you can say [Jokic's] not the best big man ever."

“I’ve loved Imo’s pizza for as long as I can remember, so this sponsorship was an easy ‘yes’ for me,” Burden said. “I look forward to the opportunity to serve as an ambassador for a brand I admire and a pizza I absolutely love!”
Props to Watkins for the joke.
