Moving quickly from the distant side of the cut, Duncan appeared as if he could not reach the lateral line soon enough. Its night raises, San Antonio were uncharacteristicly deflated and Duncan was, well, as near disturbed as he obtains.
The Utah Jazz undefeated at home in the playoff and gave to Spurs its worse loss of postseason, a defeat 109-83 that quickly changed the tone of these western conference finals.
The jazz obtained his first victory of best-of-seven series, to that the Spurs lead, 2-1. The jazz was driven by the tandem of the inside-outside of Williams (31 points) and Carlos Boozer (27 points), that finally received a certain help in the department who scored 11 points Derek Fisher and Gordan Giricek added 11 points too.
The Jazz’s series-saving run began with a Fisher 3-pointer that gave them a 62-60 lead with 5:58 left in the third quarter. Seconds later, Duncan picked up his fourth foul and went to the bench for the rest of the period. Utah closed the period on a 16-7 run, taking a 75-67 lead into the fourth.
The Jazz grabbed its first double-digit lead, 79-69, on a 22-foot jumper by Fisher early in the fourth quarter. Paul Millsap scored consecutive baskets, on a dunk and a layup, to answer 3 points from Duncan, and Fisher followed with a 3-point play that pushed the margin to 14 points.
Utah now is 7-0 at home in these playoff series, that continue Monday night with game 4.
