Jazz had amazing focus tonight.  They never got caught up in the Nugs style of play.  They also never blinked in the 48 minutes to allow the Nugs back into the game.
Okur was terrific — he has been for some time now.

8:59 3rd Quarter — Jazz 87 Nuggets 54
Boom Boom Shake the Boom.  Boom Boom Shake the Boom.
I have no idea what that means but it is playing on the speakers in the arena and seems very appropriate as the Jazz open the half on a 10-0 run going Boom Boom Shake the Boom  to end this game and seal the Northwest Division.
Okur just hit another three.
Halftime — Jazz 77 Nuggets 54
Second time this season the Jazz have scored 77 points in a half.
The Jazz scored 43 points on 26 trips down the floor — that is unreal.  15 of 21 from the field and 6 of 7 from three.  Eight three’s in a half was a franchise record.
Okur was fantastic.  He hit 4 three’s mostly in transition from Deron, who has 11 assists. 
Deron was moving guys like a puppetier on the floor tongiht. 
Jazz are very sharp tonight.   They are staying in their game and playing in their skin rather than trying to be the Nugs.
Memo has shown the ability to drive to the basket again tonight
Milsap played the three to match-up with Anthony
The bench has been great — Milsap 4 for 4; Harpring 3 for 5; Price 3 for 3; Korver 2 for 2. 

6:16 2nd Quarter — Jazz 52 Nuggets 40
The Jazz are sharing the ball really well
The Nugs get some easy basket because they push the ball relentlessly. 
Iverson is tough.  
Strong balance from the Jazz due to great ball movement and super passing for easy looks.

End of 1st Quarter  — Jazz 34 Nugs 26
AI put Ronnie Price in the wash cycle.  He just worked him everyway he could when they got matched up.  No offense meant to Ronnie who answered great on the offensive end with two buckets.  On the other end Iverson just has so many skills.
Jazz were very smart offensively in the 1st Quarter. They didn’t get too caught up in the Denver style of play.
Jazz shot 58%.  
Iverson has 13
