The joint-longest NBA play-off game in history saw the Portland Trail Blazers outlast the Denver Nuggets in four overtimes on Friday.

The Portland Trail Blazers escaped with a 140-137 Game 3 victory to take a 2-1 series lead. 

The four overtimes are tied for the longest game in NBA playoff history - the first since 1953. 

Rodney Hood hit the eventual game-winning 3-pointer with less than 20 seconds to play.

Game 4 is a must-win game for Denver.
