This young Thunder team has done a lot in the past few years, but a Game 7? Sunday will be a first, and it'll be unlike anything they've experienced.

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.

The Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Denver Nuggets 112-105 in a close Game 5 on Tuesday to take a 3-2 series lead. Earlier in the night, the Indiana Pacers beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 114-105, eliminating the East’s top-seeded team on their home floor by winning the series 4-1.
