Jazz beat Nuggets, go up 3-1

The Jazz beat the Nuggets last night 117-106 to take a commanding 3-1 series lead with Game 5 on Wednesday in Denver at 8:30 p.m. MT on TNT and FSN-Utah. Carlos Boozer had a huge game with 31 points and 13 rebounds while Deron Williams had 24 points and 13 assists. C.J. Miles continued his big series with 21 and rookie Wesley Matthews had 18. Everyone seems to be playing well.

I think D-Will had more assists than the entire Nuggets team, so to me that shows that the Jazz are playing much better team basektball. I really like the way Boozer is playing hard and attacking, he's having a really good series. And Miles is really coming of age I think. And well, everyone seems to have brought their A game. Let's hope the Jazz can close this out on Wednesday.

Carmelo Anthony had 39 points for the Nuggets, but also had nine turnovers, something interim coach Adrian Dantley pointed out in the post-game press conference, saying "'Melo" needs to take better care of the ball. However, I thought he did play hard and at least kept the Nuggets in the game to some extent. Anthony had some interesting comments after the game which I'll chronicle later. Go Jazz!
