In the 4th and final quarter the game has become an exciting game to watch as the home team Cavaliers roar back in the game and cut the Nuggets lead into single points 115 – 114 with under 3 minutes to go in regulation since then the visiting team Nuggets drops an 11 – 0 run to put away the Cavs in another disappointing loss similar to the end collapse against the 76ers.
