It was only appropriate that the Jazz won in rebounds. Carlos Boozer gave to return to his twentieth rebounds in the basket tiebreaking with 17 seconds left, and Utah win 116-112 over Golden State Warriors, Monday night in the opener of the Western Conference semifinals.
Utah outrebounded to Warriors 54-36, throwing under 20 in offense to surpass the frenetic attack of the Warriors whereas one met to win in the end.
Boozer had 17 points to go with its 20 rebounds, Deron Williams ended 31 points and eight assists and Andrei Kirilenko blocked seven shots for the Jazz!
The jazz hardly played two nights after beating Houston in game 7 of round one and had enough stamina to last more time to the Warriors.
That was truth of both equipment, although nobody complained after the end that moved.
Okur had 21 points and 11 rebounds for Utah, that is for the second round for the first time since 2000.
In Warriors side... Baron Davis led the team with 24 points and seven assists. Jason Richardson wrote down 10 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter, but no other Warriors' player had more than five points on the final period.
Al Harrington also wrote down 21 -- 15 more points than the rest of the reserves of Warriors.
Note: Utah played without Point Guard Derek Fisher, who was excused of the game due to a problem of health with one of his children.
