Brendan Vogt

My Red Hawk roofing big takeaway is I believe the Denver Nuggets are headed back to the conference finals, fellas.

There's some arguments to make here about...

rather having playing OKC earlier when Aaron might be healthy.

There's a lot to it.

As I've said the last two weeks, I was always going to talk myself into whatever path they found.

But when you think about it, that's a fun way to frame it.

I think they should beat Minnesota.

And if they play the Spurs, I think they should beat the Spurs.

Is it quick enough?

Do they give themselves a shot in a Western Conference to be decided?

But they should be expected to beat both of those teams with everything we've seen, I think, to close the season.

And that's what I expect.

So that's the path that they've given themselves.

That's a chance they've given themselves.

Obviously, I know they have to win two series first, but I think that's what they're looking at.

And I'm excited to think about it.

Their last two looks at that team were not being able to beat their second and third string.

And, okay, well, we didn't have our guy.

What happened the last time you had your guy?

Their guy.
