DENVER — The Denver Nuggets aren’t going down at home.
Following consecutive late collapses in losses to Oklahoma City, the Nuggets closed strong Thursday night for a 119-107 Game 6 over the Thunder. The win ties the Western Conference semifinal series at 3-3 and sends the series back to Oklahoma City for a winner-take-all Game 7 with a berth in the Western Conference finals at stake.
Gassed and worn down by a deep and relentless Thunder roster, the Nuggets lost Games 4 and 5 after holding leads of at least eight points in fourth quarter of each game.
