Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic has struggled in three games during the Western Conference Semifinals. OKC found a way to go 2-1 in those games.

This has been one of Jokic's worst career stretches. The Thunder's league-best defense has made him uncomfortable. Isaiah Hartenstein can bang with him down low while Chet Holmgren's rim protection forces him to second-guess on his decisions near the rim.

The Denver Nuggets suffered a heartbreaking loss at home in Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday, which tied the series at two games apiece. This followed an exhilarating overtime victory for the Nuggets.
