Fan lore
The weird, wonderful, and argument-starting stuff.
- 2023: first title in franchise history, and Mile High finally exhaled.
- Jokić: three-time MVP who passes like a point guard from the post.
- Alex English was the 1980s scoring machine before the rainbow threes.
Continuous franchises keep relocated history. Conference titles count from 1970-71, when the NBA split into conferences. Season boards and roster live on the other team tabs.
