Jazz Snatch Win against Clippers in
Along with Okur’s three he racked up 15 points and 13 rebounds. Fisher also had a double-double with 15 assists and 12 points. Boozer scored 22 points and 13 rebounds, while Millsap had 15 points and 7 rebounds.
“It’s fun to have energy like we had tonight,” said Derek Fisher.
From the beginning of the game the Clippers came out strong and took control of the game. But after the second half, the Jazz regrouped and outscored the Clippers by ten in the 3rd quarter. After Okur’s three late in the 4th quarter, the Jazz didn’t look back.
How well the Jazz do in the 3rd quarter usually determines whether or not they win the game, said Marty Burns, sports analyst for Sports Illustrated. “The experience of Derek Fisher is what took them there.”
With only a few minutes left, tied at 97, Milsap set a screen for Okur at the top of the key. Fisher then dished it to Okur, who sank the three to seal the win. From there on the momentum the Jazz carried could not be stopped, even after an attempted three by Elton Brand to bring the Clippers within two. Elton Brand scored 33 points.
