Stan Kroenke has won NFL, NHL and now NBA titles in back-to-back-to-back seasons -
His latest title came Monday night when the Denver Nuggets won their first championship 47 years after joining the NBA. His Los Angeles Rams beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in the Super Bowl following the 2021 season, and his Colorado Avalanche hoisted the Stanley Cup last summer after dispatching Tampa Bay in six games.
The Nuggets were a founding franchise in the old ABA and played for that league’s championship in 1976, falling in six games to Julius Erving’s New York Nets. Later that year, the NBA absorbed those teams along with the San Antonio Spurs and Indiana Pacers, both of whom made the finals long before Denver did.
“It was a dogfight,” Kroenke said in a rare interview, which seem mostly to come in locker room celebrations of late. “I mean, that’s how they play. They are tough. That’s a great organization. Great coach. Pat Riley’s amazing, his influence on basketball and number of championships. just how clever they are with everything.
