This game is part of the Shootout, so the winner will face the winner of the Lakers/Bobcats game tomorrow and the non-winning teams will face off as well. If we end up facing the Lakers (i.e. we either both win or lose), that game will be televised tomorrow night at 7:30pm.

[Hooch20]

Win or lose the Lakers play at 7:30 tomorrow.

[mkwest]

Win or lose the Lakers play at 7:30 tomorrow.

Thanks for the heads up. I couldn't pull the schedule on my TV earlier, because it hadn't fully updated yet and still said "to be announced". I couldn't get the Fox Sports website to load either.

[PETEY PABLO]

Can some one keep us up to date on the score. I am at work.Thanks.

16-14 Jazz at the 6 minute mark in the first quarter. Butler leads all scorers with 8 points (3-3 FG, 2-2 from 3). Baron has an assist on 5 of our 6 baskets and set up Griffin for a nice slam earlier in the game.

[mkwest]

I just read that Telfair is out again. Baron will have to rest another day.

[mkwest]

Kaman with a nice dish to Griffin for an easy slam.

[mkwest]

Jazz players hitting their shots while the Clippers are struggling to find iron. 27-18 Jazz with 2:46 remaining.

[mkwest]

Thornton and Jordan replace Kaman and Butler.

[mkwest]

DJ immediately hits the boards, hustles down the court, gets fouled and knocks down both free-throws.

[mkwest]

Then he quickly picks up 2 fouls. Smith will enter the game and Jordan will head to the bench.

[mkwest]

Baron for 3! Bingo! Clippers are now within 2. 10 seconds left in the first, but Blake forces the turnover. 28-26 Jazz at the end of 1.

Interesting stat: Blake is 9 of 12 (75%) from the line this preaseason. He shot 59% last year at OU.

[mkwest]

Collins, Ricky, Thornton, Smith & Griffin start the 2nd.

[mkwest]

35-30 Jazz with 8:58 remaining in the half.

[mkwest]

Kaman is back in the game for Griffin. Smith just hit 2 foul shots to make it a 3 point game.
