Heat only cut the lead by one point in the five minutes Nikola Jokic sat after picking up his fifth foul.

Nikola Jokic is trying to coach from the sidelines.

For the NBA, the only thing worse than a Nugget-Heat finals is a short Nuggets-Heat finals.
— Nikola Jokić Fan Club (2119-0) (@njokicfanclub) June 10, 2023
Heat were a two pack of ass with Jokic on the bench, Nuggets are just simply the better team.

One of my favorite aspects of this Nuggets team is that they only go 8 deep. Often just 7. Pretty rare. Not sure why exactly, but I love it.

Nuggets defense is so locked in. Incredible to watch them sustain this lead during non-Jokic minutes. Championship effort in a moment they could have folded after a series of horrible calls.

Jamal Murray doing his Jokic impression with these assists

KCP just locked up Jimmy Butler and Bam right after, it's looking spooky.
— Ahmed/The Ears/IG: BigBizTheGod 🇸🇴 (@big_business_) June 10, 2023
That Jimmy Butler slam into a guy and get the and-1 call remains garbage.

Bruce Brown and Aaron Gordon just secured a Nuggets championship tonight. Denver’s depth was trusted and used and they’re gonna hang a banner for it
— Cousin Steez (@AndrewDoxy) June 10, 2023
Aaron Gordon has been incredible on defense in the playoffs so far
— Kareem (@Kareem_is_it) June 10, 2023
Nikola Jokic has 3 steals, 2 blocks, 12 rebounds, and countless deflections tonight. Just another phenomenal defensive game from him.
— Harrison Wind (@HarrisonWind) June 10, 2023
The league WILL make a new rule about kickballs because of Jokic

Congrats to the Nuggets. Clearly the best team in the league this year.

Jokic sat for five minutes in the fourth quarter and the Nuggets prospered. They deserve every ounce of this two-game sweep in Miami. https://t.co/gTUFrZnQgO

I'm sorry, but Miami's defense just got SHREDDED. Just embarrassing. GAME OVER. That's four straight home playoff losses for the Heat. I still give them a little shot on Monday night, but just a little. Congrats, Denver.
