Opening bell: Denver power forward Aaron Gordon was the X-factor in the Nuggets' 115-107, series-tying victory in Game 4 on Sunday night at Target Center. He brought the ball up the court at times and shot almost flawlessly even though his attempts often were contested. He made his first 10 shots from the field and finished 11-for-12. He also had seven rebounds, six assists, two blocks and a steal. He's the first NBA player to record 27 points, seven rebounds and six assists while shooting 90% from the field.
