Denver

The Nuggets approached the playoffs far from optimal shape, but during the first round they had to rebuild and improve themself. If in the first confrontation Michael Malone's charges still won (135-125), then serious problems began.

Denver lost the next three matches and it seemed that Utah had the initiative and would simply squeeze the opponent, but Nikola Jokic and the company took their minds, thereby leveling the score in the series.

The Nuggets should approach the decisive match as concentrated as possible, as a ticket to the NBA quarterfinals is at stake. In a word, the real "Fight" awaits us.

Utah

The Jazzmen did not act very well after the restart of the season, but reaching the playoffs was only a matter of time. In the first round the team hit a rather difficult opponent in the person of Denver, so they had to turn on the speed.

The opening meeting ended in overtime defeat (125-135), but Queen Snyder managed to find the right words and his players won three matches in a row. Of course, we must give credit to Donovan Mitchchell, who did an excellent job as the leader.

Utah were leading 3-1 in the series, but allowed themselves to relax, which Nuggets took as an advantage and evened the score. Now everything will be decided in the seventh game.
