Trail Blazers win against Nuggets in record-tying fourth overtime game Globe_Sports
Hood was a starter for Cleveland last season when the playoffs opened, but fell out of favour and refused to check into the final minutes of a blowout win over Toronto in the second round. He was acquired by the Blazers in a February trade.
CJ McCollum matched his career playoff high with 41 points and Damian Lillard added 28 for Portland, which stretched its winning streak at home to 12 games dating back to the regular season.Hood scored seven points in the final OT and helped the Blazers remain unbeaten at home this post-season. But Hood’s 26-foot 3-pointer gave Portland a 138-136 lead as time wound down. Jokic missed the first of two free throws for Denver and Seth Curry made free throws for the Blazers to close it out.“Rodney Hood a huge impact on the game, and they went to him,” Malone said.
Millsap’s jumper with 32 seconds left gave the Nuggets a 129-125 lead in the third overtime, but Lillard’s bank shot closed the gap and he added a layup that re-tied it again with 8.4 seconds left.The Blazers, in the conference semifinals since 2016, have won the last two games after second-seeded Denver’s victory in Game 1.
