🔥 NUGGETS FORCE GAME 7 THRILLER IN HEART-POUNDING SHOWDOWN!

DENVER STANDS TALL: NO QUIT IN THE DEFENDING CHAMPS!

DENVER — The Denver Nuggets refused to let their season crumble on home turf. After two gut-wrenching collapses against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the defending champions rose from the ashes Thursday night with a ELECTRIFYING 119-107 WIN in Game 6, tying the Western Conference semifinals at 3-3 and setting the stage for a WINNER-TAKES-ALL GAME 7 in Oklahoma City!

🏀 THE TURNING POINT: NO MORE COLLAPSE!

After blowing fourth-quarter leads in Games 4 and 5, Denver entered the final frame Thursday clinging to an 90-82 advantage. This time? NO SURRENDER. The Nuggets unleashed a masterclass in clutch basketball, fueled by heroic performances across the roster.

🌟 STARS SHINE BRIGHT:

- Jamal Murray silenced doubts with a FIERCE 25-POINT EXPLOSION (8 rebounds, 7 assists), battling through illness to ignite Denver early. His opening four-point play set the tone, proving he’s built for the big moments.

- Nikola Jokić (rested and ruthless!) watched his bench ball out to start the fourth, then returned to seal the deal. The Thunder had no answer for the refreshed MVP.

- Julian Strawther — the unlikely hero — detonated off the bench with 15 POINTS, including 3 CLUTCH TRIES in a game-changing third-quarter run. His dagger three with 36 seconds left sent Ball Arena into FULL TILT!

⚡ COACH’S GAMBLE PAYS OFF:

Nuggets coach Michael Malone (not David Adelman as previously misstated) took a bold risk, resting Jokić for the first four minutes of the fourth. The bench responded, stretching the lead to 97-86. Result? A rejuvenated Jokić and a crowd roaring louder than a Rocky Mountain avalanche!
