No matter if the Jazz are at the top of their game or not playing in Salt Lake is rough as the Thunder take an "L" with Kevin Durant going for 48 points again. How many time shave you seen a Star go for a "Half a Hundo" and win...it's not often.

The Jazz were in control from the jump leading 59-47 at the break and 90-74 after three frames. The Thunder got as close as five late in the 4th but the Jazz rode SF Gordon Hayward of Butler Bulldogs Fame to a surprising 112-101 "W". Hayward tallied 37 points, eleven boards, and seven helpers. He went on a KD-like run scoring the last 17 points for the Jazz in the 4th from everywhere. Jazz Big Derrick Favors added 15 points and five rebounds while Marvin Williams chipped in with 12. The Jazz shot nearly 60% and 44% from the Arc.

The Thunder shot a Knicks-like 34 Money Balls and hit six and that was their game in a nutshell on Tuesday night. Reggie Jackson's 20 points and six helpers weren't nearly enough to help KD and the Thunder on this night. The Only two players in Double figures as they combine for 68 points but took 48 of your 89 shots...uncalled for and will get you beat every darn night.

The Regulators OKC fall to 27-8 and the Jazz move to 12-25 and that is three losses in the last five games for the Thunder.
