The Nuggets regained homecourt advantage with a win in Game 3. Now, Game 4 feels like a must-win for the Heat.
Denver took a 2-1 series lead behind a historic night from its duo of Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. The tandem became the first pair of teammates in NBA history to record a 30-point triple-double in the same game, with Jokic going for 32 points, 21 rebounds and 10 assists, and Murray going for 34 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
The Heat's offense had no answer for that one-two punch despite getting 28 points from Jimmy Butler and 22 points and 17 rebounds from Bam Adebayo.
Miami's back is now against the wall, in danger of falling into a 3-1 hole when the series shifts back to Denver for Game 5.
Will the Heat even the series at two games apiece, or will the Nuggets place themselves one win away from their first NBA title? The Sporting News has you covered with all the information you need to tune in below.
