Is Detroit dirtiness a unfair advantage, I think so

I can only imagine the struggle Nikola Jokic had when he first got to denver

There’s a reason why the US Olympic team trains in Colorado Springs.

That's why the spurs couldn't listen and we're just frozen in game 7 makes sense to me

Golden State's proximity to the sea, gives them a constant dosage of salt.

As someone from Denver this is something I’ve always been intrigued by

Its like Bolivia in football. They're not a great team but have a tremendous home record, no one likes playing there. (Argentina lost 6-1 there yikes bro)

Denver is the highest city in the US in more ways than one... ;)

This is a big issue in international south american soccer tournaments. Some teams in Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador have stadiums that are 3600mts+ high (12000ft+).

Rockies: No World Series Wins Nuggets: No championships Avalanche: havent won since 2001 Broncos: 3 Superbowl wins Superbowls arent played at home stadium so broncos dont get advantage there

The Ecuador soccer team laughs in the distance

I live in Quito which is the 2nd highest city in South America and the only reason our national team plays their soccer games here is because of the altitude. Because there are much nicer stadiums on the coast of Ecuador with capacities of 65.000 seats, but our already bad national team would lose every game if we didn’t use this altitude as an advantage.
