The Utah Jazz in the 1st two games got beat easily by the Lakers.  Kobe was outstanding and the supporting class for the Lakers were solid as well.  Part of the Lakers dominance was the lack of scoring out of Carlos Boozer who in the 1st two games of the series Boozer average 12 points per game.   Boozer tonight being back home in Utah where the Jazz are 40-5 before tonights game had the game of his young playoff career. Boozer had 27 points and 20 rebounds and lead the Jazz to a win over the Lakers.  The Jazz tonight was 39-78 from the floor and shot at 50%. In all there were 5 players for the Jazz in double figures.  Boozer after the win had this to say”I tried to stop thinking so much out there. My teammates were waiting for a big game out of me and I was too. … I had to play thought-free and just react and play,” The Lakers played well Kobe Bryant had 34 but Boozer was too much for the purple and gold. “We clawed back but you can’t turn the ball over so many times,” Bryant said. “We had a lot of open looks and you can sustain a game like that if you don’t turn the ball over.”  The Jazz with the win are now for the season 41-5 and the Lakers with the loss are now 6-1 for the playoff season.  Game 4 will be Sunday in Utah.
