Denver’s building was sent into a frenzy by an equal dose of hope and belief. Hope that a Game 7 was possible. Belief that it could stomp the Thunder, 119-107, to unlock it.

Denver came out on top in Thursday's Game 6 on its home court to send up a winner-take-all matchup on Sunday in Oklahoma City. A second-half surge allowed the Nuggets to pull away by double digits and keep their season alive.

The Oklahoma City Thunder will face the Denver Nuggets in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals, with a matchup against the Timberwolves on the line.
