Nikola Jokic Reacts to Being One Win From Championship

The Denver Nuggets are one win away from an NBA title, and superstar center Nikola Jokic knows it is not the time to relax. Speaking after the Game 4 victory, Jokic acknowledged that Denver still needs one win.

"It's still one win," Jokic said. "We need to win one more. I like that we didn't relax. We didn't get comfortable. We were still desperate. We still want it. That's what makes me happy, that guys didn't relax."

Jamal Murray added similar comments, saying, "We're just focused, dialed in and ready to do this thing... We're just ready to win a championship. We have the tools to do it. It's been on our minds for a while. We're just locked in. I don't think you've got to overthink it. We're just dialed in, ready to win."

The Nuggets have been dominant this entire playoff run, but they understand the Miami Heat are a competitive group that is not going to go down easy. With an opportunity to close this out at home, the Nuggets do not want this series to get back to Miami for Game 6.

Not allowing themselves to relax up 3-1, the Nuggets plan to enter Game 5 with the same focus and tenacity they have had throughout this entire run. If they do that, they have a chance to hoist the championship trophy in front of their home crowd.
