The Thunder tied the score!
The momentum shifted in an instant!
The Nuggets had held onto their lead for nearly half the game, but at last, their opponents had caught up.
Now, the balance of offense and defense was about to shift!!
Denver's next possession.
Murray hurried the ball across half court, then passed it to Jokic.
Jokic held the ball at the top of the key, facing Davis, and quickly drove.
He went right, powering past AD to the free-throw line, then spun with the ball. After turning to the left side of the basket, Teacher Jokic didn't slow down. He pounded the ball hard and drove inside again, then went straight at Davis.
Using the force of the contact to step back, Jokic quickly rose for the shot.
It wasn't a move he usually made, but if he kept driving toward the basket without fully getting past Davis, taking a shot would be dangerous.
Besides, out of the corner of his eye, he had already spotted Chen Xi coming over to help.
Under the pressure of the defense, Jokic had no choice but to adjust his posture, cut the move short, and finish the play.
He released the ball from an extremely high point, and it headed straight for the basket.
Dang!

Three consecutive clanks rang out as the ball struck the rim, setting the fans' nerves on edge.

On the other side of the basket, Batum leaped with all his might and secured the defensive rebound, then quickly passed the ball out.
A through pass found its way into Chen Xi's hands.
Chen Xi turned and pushed the ball in transition.
