北京時間4月14日，NBA常規賽迎來收官戰決戰日，西部一場焦點對決，火箭主場對陣掘金。此前兩隊本賽季有過兩次交手，各取一勝。掘金此前戰績為49勝32負，排名西部第四；火箭戰績52勝29負，排名西部第二。火箭早早鎖定西部第二的位置，但對掘金來說，本場比賽根本沒有退路。一旦輸給火箭，掘金有可能掉到西部第七，這也是建立在森林狼不會在墊底爵士身上陰溝翻船的基礎上。不過掘金只要贏球，將鎖定西部第四。用代理主帥小阿德爾曼的話說，他們希望把主動權掌握在自己手中。

The Rockets are also quite interesting, in the previous games, they defeated the Thunder and Warriors one after another, and then took turns to release the Clippers and Lakers, but these two losses made Udoka a little dissatisfied (conceding 1 points per game), and bluntly said that the team must keep the game when the playoffs come, otherwise the players will lose competitiveness. So in this game with the Nuggets, the Rockets played with the strongest lineup. The American media also analyzed the record of the five major opponents that the Rockets may face in the playoffs, 0-0 with the Timberwolves, the two teams are on par, and the scores and losses are about the same, which is obviously not easy to play. Facing the Warriors 0-0, it is not easy to fight; and the Nuggets were 0-0 before, and the Rockets had a slight advantage.

Playing the Clippers 1-0, but the Clippers did not have Leonard in the previous encounters, so it is not very valuable for reference, and the matchup with the Grizzlies is 0-0, but obviously, it is difficult to meet the Grizzlies (the Grizzlies are basically locked in eighth in the West, and it is a bit difficult to win in the first round of the play-offs to get the seventh seed). For rockets, there really is no soft persimmon to pinch in the west. In addition, the Rockets lack prominent arrows and lack the ability to solve the game, and there is a high probability that they will become cannon fodder this season. Back to the game, the Nuggets start: Murray + Bryan + Porter + Gordon + Jokic; Rockets starters: VanVleet + Jalen Green + Brooks + Amen Thompson + Shin Kyung. After the opening, Shen Jing made a layup + a violent dunk, Jokic and Gordon attacked strongly, and Amen responded with a rebound.

Jalen Green was really bad defensively, and was used as a breakthrough point by the Nuggets, but fortunately, it blossomed inside and outside Brooks and Amen. In the middle of the period, Jokic hit a three-pointer, Murray broke through for a layup, and Gordon bumped into Jalen Green to continue to dunk. Amen and Adams stopped the bleeding, Jokic scored three points + Wei Shao picked up a basket to widen the difference. At the end of the quarter, Jokic continued to bombard with three points, and with Wei Shao's killing, the Nuggets led the Rockets 6-0 in the first quarter. Entering the second quarter, VanVleet scored 0 points in a row, Wei Shao made a kill + broke through the board, Wei Shao could easily eat Green alone, and the Nuggets always maintained a double-digit point difference. In the middle of the game, Jokic threw + Gordon chased a three-pointer and started again, but Van Jordan made a jumper and responded with Amen Thompson's dunk.

In the second half, Amen continued to dunk and carry the Rockets' offense, Porter and Van Jordan hit three points, Murray continued to make fouls, and the Nuggets made a 21-0 Rockets at halftime. Entering the second half, after Gordon accelerated to the basket, Amen made a kill + Brooks hit three points, the Rockets just had some improvement, Murray hit three points, Porter counterattacked and made a layup, Murray got rid of the rebound against Shen Jing, and the Nuggets continued to widen the difference. In the middle of the game, Van Jordan finally hit a three-pointer, Gordon ate cakes in a row, and with Porter's bottom corner three-pointer, the Nuggets opened up a 0-point difference! The Rockets lost to the Clippers and Lakers in a row before, and although the main team returned, it was obviously not tight, with too many defensive openings and rebounding balls.

After Bryan scored a layup, Udoka was obviously dissatisfied, and directly replaced the bench and surrendered early! After that, Wei Shao and Gordon continued to widen the difference, Jokic jumped at the end of the quarter, Watson hit three points, and the third quarter was played, and the Nuggets were 30-0 Rockets. The fourth quarter seemed to lose suspense, the Nuggets finally defeated the Rockets 0-0, ended with a 0-0 record, and finally ranked fourth in the West, while the Rockets finally settled at 0-0, ranking second in the West.
