Ah, the Denver Nuggets live to fight another day. With it, Nuggets fans have copious thoughts, and hope is restored in the Nuggets making this a series again.
Let’s talk about it:
Does Denver continue to play high on the pick and roll and force Mitchell/Conley/Clarkson to drive? Felt like that worked well late.

The biggest story tonight was Denver’s defense finally clicking during the second half. After allowing 63 points in the first, the Nuggets locked down in the second half and allowed just 44, the lowest amount they’ve allowed in any half of the playoffs thus far.
