Denver coughed up a 22-point fourth-quarter lead but still beat the Clippers thanks to Gordon’s dramatic dunk to tie the first-round series at two games apiece.

The firing of their head coach and general manager right before the start of these NBA playoffs comes to mind most. I've seen them at their highest highs, such as when they went a dominant 16-4 through the entire 2023 postseason en route to the first championship in franchise history.

How confident were the Nuggets that Aaron Gordon’s dunk was out of his hands before the buzzer? Depends who you ask.
