The Nuggets had a chance to author the first four-game series sweep in franchise history Sunday night. Instead, it's back to Denver with one more game to win. “That’s a missed opportunity.” Story from msinger
MINNEAPOLIS – Most of the heavy lifting was already done, and it looked like the Timberwolves were headed for hibernation.
Down 96-95 with 12 seconds left, Jokic went to the free-throw line for two looks, a place he hadn’t visited once in Friday’s Game 3. On a night when the two-time reigning MVP hung 43 points on 26 shots, including five 3-pointers, Jokic missed. His errant free throw changed the complexion of the comeback and the game.
First Jokic took the blame for the free throw. If he had made both, maybe the Wolves wouldn’t have mustered a game-winning shot to stave off elimination. That do-or-die scenario never played out. Nuggets coach Michael Malone was most disappointed in the defense, which had yielded just 16 points in the fourth quarter but conceded 18 in the extra session.Minnesota shot 75% in the overtime session. It hit four 3-pointers, including a banked triple from the corner via Mike Conley. Some of the baskets were the result of defensive breakdowns. Others, like Nickeil Alexander-Walker’s second 3-pointer of the session, came despite a quality contest.
