Game notes

The Jazz can close out the series with a win tonight; otherwise, Game 6 is Friday night in Utah ... Only eight times in NBA history, and four times since 1982, has a team come back from being down 1-3 to win a best-of-seven playoff series ... Jazz coach Jerry Sloan on Saturday moved past Lenny Wilkens (178) and into fourth place on the NBA's all-time playoff-games coached list, behind Pat Riley, Phil Jackson and Larry Brown... Sloan's 90 playoff victories, trailing only those three, Red Auerbach and Gregg Popovich.
