Nuggets Champion Reacts to Lakers Slamming Their Trash Talk
USA TODAY Sports

Multiple players on the Los Angeles Lakers have come out recently and made it known that they have heard all of the Denver Nuggets' trash talk from this summer. From Michael Malone being called "the Lakers daddy" to Malone himself taking some jabs at LeBron James and the Lakers, it seems Los Angeles has heard it all.

Speaking with Mark Media of Sportskeeda, Nuggets champion Christian Braun was asked about this, and said the following:

"We’re not into it that much," Braun said. "Obviously, that’s what a lot of people want to talk about, but they’re a great team. We know that. They’re a good team. There are a lot of good teams in the league this season. It’s training camp for the next season. So all of that is in the past. We won last year, and we know that was last year. It’s important we put an emphasis on that we back up what we did last year so we can defend. We have to come out with the same hunger and the same emphasis on winning as we did last year. We know it’s a new year. We don’t focus too much [on the trash talk].”

This has been the reaction of every Nuggets player or coach who has been asked about the Lakers slamming their trash talk, as everyone in Denver seems to realize that last season was last season.
