Meh, Utah is missing Boozer, lost CJ Miles in the 3rd, and Collins is also out (not that he really matters). The game is at Utah, that's the difference.

Looks like Portland might loose tonight, so the Jazz have a shot at stealing the 8th spot in the west., and just .5 games away from 7th (Houston). :-D

If Utah can keep within 5 games when Boozer comes back I think they can win their division. At full strength they are better than Denver and Portland.

Blasted injuries. If Utah were healthy, it would be a top 3 team.

Oh well....Murphy's Law I suppose.

Wow, what an awesome game for Indiana

GRANGER - simply fantastic, not just because of his scoring either, my first real look at him this season (would of liked to see more of him)

That's a really tough loss for Phoenix, 2nd buzzer beating loss at home in 2 weeks... but yeah, I love when teams like Indy come into Phoenix and play them well/tough.

Very enjoyable game to watch if you're not a Suns supporter
