JAZZ BLAZE THE STREAK
The Jazz ended the Blazers 13 game winning streak Monday, 111 to 101, Portland’s first lost since December 2. Brandon Roy who scored 17 this game had this to say, “It was a great month for us. We lost the first game of the month and the last game of the month. Any time you do that, I think that’s a sign of a young team maturing, you can’t win all of them. It’s an NBA season. We’d like to, but Utah played great tonight.”
AK-47, Andrei Kirilenko had 14 points, eight rebounds and seven assists, Carlos Boozer had 19 points and nine rebounds and Deron Williams added eight points and eight assists. The Jazz who got a boost from newcomer Kyle Korver, scored 11 in his Utah debut. The Blazers were three wins away from tying the franchise record and had beaten Utah twice already during the run.
Portland coach Nate McMillan was attending a family funeral and not with the team to see the streak come to an end.
