The Nuggets earn a monster road win in Utah. This game had all the makings for a heart breaking loss, but Denver had too much fight.
This isn't going to ease any pain, but this cost the Jazz a chance to tie: Devin Harris has just made a three to cut it to 2 with 1.2 seconds left. Denver inbounds from that. First Martin loses...
Come talk Nuggets at Jazz here.
The Jazz try to narrow the gap on the Nuggets as they push for a playoff birth.
