Aaron Gordon talks Game 4 NBA Finals WIN, FULL Postgame Interview 🎤

[@Cardb33]

Gordon is having a Wiggins type impact on the Finals. A guy who was drafted high and was pushed to be a #1 or #2 option when in reality they're better off being the Swiss Army knife of their team. They are very versatile and they are capable of contributing big time to a championship. It's amazing seeing him thrive in this role. He's really come a long way from his Orlando days and I'm very happy for him. He's found a home in Denver.

[@kupendatv]

No cap

[@JayNicolls]

Excellent comparison

[@spurstilidie4637]

He's a dawg!!! Put some respect on his name please.

[@82cardshark]

A championship will make up x100 for his dunk contest robbery

[@Cardb33]

@@spurstilidie4637 I believe I did put some respect on his name. He's contributing heavily to a championship Nuggets team. He's their Swiss Army knife. He's the Nuggets version of what Wiggins did for the Warriors last year. The impact and the versatility can't be overstated. Jokic and Murray are the stars and they're why the Nuggets are here but make no mistake you don't win a championship without guys like Aaron Gordon being the glue and filling so many roles. Today he was their best scorer, he played great defense, he made big time shots when they needed him to, he was the difference.

[@chuck.fleischer]

I feel like people still aren't giving him enough credit to what he's done all year and in the playoffs. First round he had to guard KAT, never easy, second round had to guard KD, good luck tryna do that, WCF, had to guard LeBron and this round, he's had to guard Jimmy. Insane

[@genjuitsu6422]

Bro AG is him

[@Titan_Moss37]

Yup, the nuggets definitely wouldn’t be here without his defensive contributions.

[@johnm841]

He's also had to guard, or at least switch on to, Ant Edwards, Devin Booker, Anthony Davis, and Bam. Hard to come up with a more impressive guantlet of players to run through

[@yurielcundangan9090]

Love Gordon with Joker.It's nice to see somebody stick on their values

[@agthaog1986]

true, i liked how joker and millsap played but it kinda felt like they were deferring a bit too much back and fourth plus im not sure if jokic defensively was fully there yet. now jokic is primed and gordon is just soo open to learn and at the sametime DO since hes not exactly viewed as a "major" piece

[@mikewilliams9069]

Values of being a sellllouttt

[@mrjinkorea]

Kudos to Nuggets management for getting Gordon. Maybe the best trade in team history. He complements Joker and Murray perfectly and he's a huge reason the Nuggs are gonna win their first title.

[@SoulMythology]

This dude balled out of his mind tonight. When the Nuggets needed a 3rd option to step up, he stepped up. He was a beast offensively and a menace on defense. Aaron Gordon is a huge reason why this Nuggets team is where they are at. Give this man his props!

[@Rangerderp22]

AG is a seriously likeable, talented and unselfish player who fits perfectly into this team. The Nuggets are going to be a serious threat for years if they can keep this lineup

[@lainguyen7093]

AG was the right last piece on the starting line up they’ve been missing to win it all. They barely got him last year so they couldn’t win last year. But this year they’ve built chemistry together and it has been one hell of a season for them.

[@Kingfisher1215]

Actually, that was KCP. He was the final piece. AG has been starting for Denver for a few years.

[@lainguyen7093]

@@Kingfisher1215 few years? Lol bro they barely got him the second half last season. That’s when Jamal was still hurt.. This season was their full season together plus Jamal Murray.

Yes AG has been here 2 1/2 years now. Your missing an entire season where he was our second option because Murray and Porter were injured

[@lainguyen7093]

@@ethankelly4719 yes…. And that was the second half of the last season where he got traded to Denver sir.. aka he’s only been with nuggets for 1 and a half season lol

[@SS-of2gr]

As a University of Arizona Grad, I'm super proud of Aaron Gordon. He got robbed in both Dunk Contests, but now he will get redemption. Love this man, best interview in sports.

[@2Maradoo]

AG has sacrificed so much for this Nuggets team. Not only this year in the matchups he’s stepped up to defend, but also last year owning the moment and being the second man up. Denver loves you Air Gordon.

[@josephlituma8048]

agree with all that & on top, he had to sacrifice playing minutes once Murray and MPJ came back to the rotation, accepting what’s better for the team then himself and stepping back as a fourth or fifth option. He was a first option at Orlando but he knew when he came to Denver he’d become a role player. But his brilliance and consistency have allowed him to showcase hes more than that when his team needs him to be. AG is the definition of a teammate and a champion. 1 more game man

[@samhathaway2251]

AG is amazing. If the Nuggets didnt go get him idk if we are here rn. his dedication to improving every offseason and raising his basketball IQ has been incredibly important to this Nuggets team. His defense on wome of the best players in the game has been instrumental. Such an easy player to root for ❤

[@doctorslayer2106]

What's Crazy is AG got to the NBA Finals First than Zack Lavine. So Question what is much more Sweeter winning a Dunk Contets? Or Winning The Larry O'Brien Trophy?

[@Theckonestroh]

AG we aren't seeing his best! We are just seeing his first steps to the next level. In 2 ot 3 yrs will see AG put up 45 in the playoff game. It will be his complete game. Happens with every great player when they emerge. IQ only takes you so far when your fighting gravity! Misunderstanding when it just becomes another rep and he pays no attention. Right now he calls out every detial for reporter. Why I loved Barkley, Iverson, Kobe and Shaq never sweated a reporter with all the detials.

Denver really does have a big 3. And a stable of 4s in MPJ, KCP, Bruce Brown, Christian Braun, who can all have great games depending on what's needed. Denver is gonna be a problem for a few years.

Gordon can you be a scorer but on most nights he and Porter subordinate their scoring for defense and rebounds.

I have been cheering for Denver and Miami since the playoffs started. That being said Miami lives and dies by the 3. Denver is that small market team putting Perk, Skip Baseless and ESPN to sleep with every win. 😊

How is Gordon not an all star? He's legit the third man on the best team in the world.

[@johnelway3728]

[@jtaustinmusic]

Every single nugget buys in. There's no chest thumping and that's why they're so good. New dynasty.

[@TomO-nx1bd]

You just can't get an edge over Denver, they'll always have a guy who'll step up and hurt you. This is all in part from Jokic's uncanny ability to keep everything in balance and let his teammates do what they do best when they're on a roll.

[@josephlituma8048]

AG has sacrificed so much for the Nuggets team. Having to guard the best player in every series and relying on him when the opponents blitz Murray or Jokic. & on top, he had to sacrifice playing minutes once Murray and MPJ came back to the rotation, accepting what’s better for the team then himself and stepping back as a fourth or fifth option. He was a first option at Orlando but he knew when he came to Denver he’d become a role player.

Glad AG out there contributing to a finals run on the verge of winning it all. Because I’ll never forget that dunk contest where he displayed way better/difficult technical dunks that he slammed on the first try. Each one had an “!” on it. So I’m glad, etch your name in NBA basketball history. 1st nuggets championship years later. Imagine that.

[@de1738]

[@TheRealKillaTrav]

I'm going to be THAT guy and go with the unpopular opinion: He's this year's Andre Iguodala. I think Gordon deserves to win the Finals MVP for the way he's been playing defense on Butler and Bam. He's the defensive anchor of this team and it shows. Nuggets were overall an average defensive team this season but it just shows in these Finals how he's been their best defensive player. He's also been the most efficient player averaging almost 70% FG. I get Jokic is putting up historic numbers, but I feel like he should get the Finals MVP just like Iguodala did in 2015.

[@Mario-ll7lf]

That was robbery though LeBron averaged 30 point triple double still without Kyrie. Finals MVP should have been Steph no doubt.

One thing I love about having new teams in the Finals, like Denver, is because now we see who the real fans are vs the bandwagon fans. One more game, Denver. If you guys win, I can't wait to see all of the Denver gear, especially here in Minnesota!! I am a Timberwolves fan and always root for Western Conference teams in the Finals. Good luck and finish up the Finals on Monday. Don't give Miami any hope.

[@HBK970]

Nuggets fan and y'all T'Wolves probably gave us the toughest challenge out of all the teams we faced other than Phoenix but they were a 4 seed and ya'll were 8 seed... lets just say it took almost 20 years to get revenge on ya'll for when you guys were the #1 seed and we were the #8 seed and instead of Jokic MVP it was KG MVP back then. Good luck next year, hopefully if we meet again it will be in the Western Conference Finals!
