<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>SALT LAKE CITY (July 15, 2006) ? The Utah Jazz (1-0) began their second game of the Reebok Rocky Mountain Revue in front of another sold out crowd at the Lifetime Activities Center at Salt Lake Community College. With three key players out for the Philadelphia 76ers (1-0) out, on paper it looked like the marquee game of the second night was going to be another blowout, but that?s why they play the game.Shavlik Randolph, the leading scorer for Philadelphia had to leave the team due to personal reasons last night. Randolph had 25 points in game one of the 76ers? Revue yesterday. Rodney Carney scored 17 points for Philadelphia last night and he was not able to play in tonight?s game after straining his left hamstring. Bobby Jones strained his right hamstring yesterday in limited time.Ronnie Brewer thrilled the crowd again, this time early in the game with six points in the first five minutes of the game.Despite the top two scores from Philadelphia being out, the 76ers hung tough in the first quarter and were tied with the Jazz, 21-21. However, the Jazz took over the game in the second quarter as Deron Williams led Utah with five points in the first minute of the quarter. The Jazz scored the first seven points of the quarter.Brewer entered the game again with just over six minutes left in the first half and it took him little time to get the Utah fans on their feet as he made another easy lay up just seconds after coming back into the game. The Jazz lengthened their lead to 15 with Brewer back in the game.The 76ers narrowed the lead to 10 points at the break thanks to a few turnovers by the Jazz. The score at the break was 44-34, in favor of the Jazz. Brewer and Williams had 11 points each for Utah.The 76ers pulled to within six points at the end of the third quarter thanks to 11 Jazz turnovers. The Jazz out shot Philadelphia from the floor by 12 percent, yet still were outscored in the quarter by four points.Philadelphia scored the first 10 points of the fourth quarter as part of a 14-0 run spanning five minutes. The run was stopped when C.J. Miles penetrated the middle of the Philadelphia defense and scored an easy lay up. At that point the 76ers led 64-62.As the 76ers lengthened their lead to five with four minutes left in the third quarter, everything seemingly began to go Philadelphia?s way as one offensive possession after another was turned away by bad bounces and offensive fouls that got the crowd booing louder than the previous night?s altercation between Rafael Araujo and Marvin Williams.The dagger came when Ben Green hit a three-pointer in the corner to give the 76ers the 75-68 lead with 1:45 left in the game. The Jazz never recovered from there and Philadelphia went on to win by the score of __ in a game in which the Jazz had to be heavily favored after the 76ers lost three players going into the game.Brewer ended with 17 points to lead the Jazz in scoring while C.J. Miles and Deron Williams added 14 points each. They shot 55% in the game in the losing effort while the 76ers shot just 41% in the win. The 76ers shot 45 free throws and made 32 of those on 42 personal fouls.The leading scorer in the game was Louis Williams who had 27 and Steven Smith added 23 points for Philadelphia. Also, Ivan McFarlin contributed 12 points for the 76ers.</div>Source: http://www.nba.com/jazz/Revue/06game6.htmlBoxscore: http://www.nba.com/media/jazz/06game6.pdfWilliams had a really good game with 27. And you know Smith is making the team, he's really putting in work out there.
very good game indeed by Williams. He got to the FT line 15 times, too. Good all-around game, he had 5 assists to boot.
Wow were doing great. Great game for Louis Williams. 27 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, and 3 steals. Great overall game except those 5 turnovers kind of hurt him lol. I really do hope we sign Smith. He's been playing well for us in the two games. I think we can be the best team in this league if Carney, Randolph, and Jones are back soon.
Great game for Louis. I wonder why shav didn't play? Its a shame jones got injured in the last game, hopefully he'll be back soon.editoops nevermind, i just read the article. Now i know why shav wasn't there.
