Game notes

How important is tonight's game? No NBA team has ever come back to win a best-of-seven series after falling behind 3-0. ... The Jazz have a 9-1 home record against the Spurs in four previous playoff series. Utah has a 12-10 all-time postseason record vs. San Antonio and has won three of four series. ... At home in Game 3, the Jazz are 7-5 in the first round. ... Spurs big Tiago Splitter is probable after missing Game 2 with a bone bruise on his left wrist.

Corbin has been seriously out coached so far, he might be able to change that if he goes big and starts Favors, Milsap, and Jefferson. Corbin seems to be the only person who cares about this series who can't see that going big is the Jazz's More..

Even Vegas does not expect the Jazz to put up much of a fight tonight. Oddsmakers have Spurs as a six-point favorite -- on the Jazz home court, with everything at stake!

Ty just isn't going to change and start Favors over Howard.

He continues to ignore all the stats and think experience trumps talent.

Just pull the handle, as the Jazz get flushed out of the playoffs.
