And now, Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

What's up, everybody? Welcome to Move the Sticks. DJ, Bucky, back together. Buck,

how are you doing, man? Did you watch the finals, the Nuggets clinching that one last night?

I did. I did. And look, it was great to watch. And I think it's everything that we've talked about when it comes to team building.

If you have a talented team, if you can get them play hard and get them to play with toughness, man, you can do a lot of different things.

And sometimes, DJ, I know when we've been building teams,

you always have this team that is basically kind of like the litmus test, the measuring stick.

And I think for the nuggets playing the Miami Heat, force them to take their game up a notch.

And what I am curious about is how they can take the lessons that they learned this year,

playing a team like that in the finals,

and how they can take that and build upon it as they go forward and try and do it again and again.

Because you heard Mike Malone talk about, hopefully this isn't the last one that we're going to get.

But can they take what they learn from playing against a team that really is built on effort and

toughness and grit?
