On May 16, in the Western Conference semi-finals G6, the Nuggets defeated the Thunder 119-107, tied the total score to 3-3, and the series entered the tiebreak stage. This is the second time this playoffs has been tiebreaker, and the Nuggets have both occupied a place in these two times, which reminds people of the curse of the name "About G7". In the first quarter of the game, the two sides were evenly matched, and the score gap was always controlled within 5 points. Entering the second half of the second quarter, the Thunder took the lead, Alexander scored 6 points, and Homgren added bricks and tiles outside the three-point line to help the team play a 9-0 offensive, widening the gap to double digits. Faced with an unfavorable situation, the Nuggets' four main players quickly counterattacked, hitting a 12-0 climax, instantly tying the score.

In the second half, the Nuggets' main players were no longer dragged down by the Thunder like they did in the last game, and the role players finally ushered in an explosion. In the third quarter, Strauser made all three shots, scoring 8 points alone, and Porter also made two mid-range and long shots. The Nuggets narrowly beat 11 points in this quarter and entered the last quarter with an advantage of 8 points. In the final quarter, Jokic scored 11 points and continued to maintain a stable performance, but this time he no longer fought alone, and the team did not collapse like the G5. Strauser and Westbrook teamed up to contribute 11 points, successfully curbing the opponent's counterattack, and eventually both sides left the suspense of the victory and loss to the final battle three days later.

In this game, Westbrook made 3 of 8 shots and scored 8 points and 3 rebounds. Although the score was not high, his fighting spirit and active defense on the court injected energy into his teammates. Strauser made three three-pointers in the second half and contributed 15 points, winning a chance to breathe for Jokic and Murray. Braun's performance was second only to Jokic. He made 8 of 14 shots in the game, 3 of 6 three-pointers, and 4 free throws, scoring 23 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals. He performed well on both ends of the offense and defense, especially in defending Alexander. The team's second-in-command Murray contributed 25 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists with 9 of 19 shots, showing his strength that matches his value. Jokic made 9 of 14 shots in the game, made 10 of 12 free throws, and scored quasi-triple double data of 29 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals.
