Jokić fueled a second-half comeback against the Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals with 42 points and 22 rebounds before Gordon hit a game-winning three in the final seconds to give Denver a 121-119 win.

Teams usually face an uphill climb just to play Nikola Jokić and the mile-high Denver Nuggets, but it could be the Nuggets facing an uphill battle in their second-round series against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Obviously, this was the second game-winner of the playoffs for Gordon, who won Game 4 of Denver's first-round series at the buzzer with a dunk. Jokić, meanwhile, just had one of the best playoff games of his illustrious career to steal home-court advantage. He ended the night with 42 points, 22 rebounds and six assists to seal the victory.
