A roller coaster of a seven-game series between the Utah Jazz and the Denver Nuggets came down to a dramatic final 30 seconds. The game was tied 78-78 when Nicola Jokic put Denver up for good with some sweet footwork and some touch on a shot over the best defensive big man in the game in Rudy Gobert.

I did not think that the Nuggets could win a game under 90 points but what a huge couple plays from Jokić
