The Utah Jazz saw everything go right on the road in Houston for Game 2, but Game 3 saw them throw the game away in the first quarter, and they never recovered. The Jazz were guilty of seven first quarter turnovers and were down by 30 at the half. The entire 2nd half was garbage time. There were no players logging more than 32 minutes on eaither side, so fresh legs and a tempo in the first half that saw 110 points scored is a lot more likely to be the case over 48 minutes in Game 4. Neither team shot the ball well, and despite all the garbage time and the poor shooting, the game was one possession from eclipsing the total. The Rockets are going for 110+ points per game thus far without shooting the ball well. This one goes OVER the total.
