At this point, the Denver Nuggets acquiring Aaron Gordon has to be up there with the greatest non-superstar trades in recent, if not all of, NBA history. The fit has been extraordinary from the start as Gordon, with Nikola Jokić as his quarterback, has unlocked the best imaginable basketball version of himself.

Aaron Gordon drained a 3-pointer with four seconds left to cap the Denver Nuggets' stunning 121-119 win against the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. The Nuggets closed out on a 19-6 run after having trailed for most of Monday's game at Paycom Center in the second round of the NBA Playoffs.

Jokić fueled a second-half comeback against the Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals with 42 points and 22 rebounds before Gordon hit a game-winning three in the final seconds to give Denver a 121-119 win.
