The Denver Nuggets recently participated in the pivotal Game 6 of their conference semifinals series against the Oklahoma City Thunder at Ball Arena. Despite facing significant pressure, the Nuggets ultimately emerged victorious, thanks to Nikola Jokic’s strong performance.
In the aftermath of the game, a reporter questioned Jokic about the pivotal factors contributing to the Nuggets’ success. In response, Jokic articulated his dissatisfaction with the officiating throughout Game 6 against the Thunder.
Reporter: “Aaron and Peyton came out and then drew a bunch of fouls, and that got them into the bonus, and got a bunch of fouls on those guys. How do you feel like the aggressiveness in drawing those fouls tonight helped you guys get control of the game?”
Jokic: “Definitely helped to get control. I think this is the first time we didn’t have offensive fouls in this series. That’s helpful.”
