Considering that there have only been 13 of such instances whereby an NBA team triumph a 3-1 deficit to win a championship series leaves little much to tell concerning whether Miami Heat can still emerge victorious in the NBA finals.
After seeing game 4 at Miami, it just felt like a game 5 was not needed to prove that the Nuggets had already won the series. There was just something really weird about game 4, in fact until 1 minute left in the game i still felt that Denver Nuggets wont take home the win.
The irony about game 4 was Jamal was not really generating great looks at the basket and even Jokic got into foul trouble and couldn’t perform as much . However Aaron Gordon was the secret weapon of the 4th.Aaron Gordon is literally a bully to small guards when he approaches the rim.
Aaron Gordon always had enough space to drive freely to the rim and dunk. Miami had no answer to whatever Aaron Gordon Gordon was doing whenever he drove into the arc. In my opinion he had a little much uncontested space to maneuver his way to the rim.
On the Heat end of the court,Bam Adebayo has been impressive in this series especially when it comes to holding down Jokic and even Jamal Murray, however Bam’s effort does not just seem enough.
Jamal has been a weapon of mass destruction to Miami’s defense and it has been beyond spectacular to see him performing at a prime level when it comes to making passes to his teammates. As for Jokic he has been impressive, but to an extent he has been held down a little. The Nuggets seem to really have it all these season and they really deserve it. Game 5 will be a perfect decider on how near the Nuggets are to winning a championship.
And Yes I believe in Miracles!! What if Miami dominates Game 5? I guess we will have to see
