Larry Miller picked a poor game to miss. True, the Jazz owner may have scored a few points with his Mormon God by choosing, for religious reasons, not to attend the first Sunday game at Utah in seven years (although I’m going to assume he’ll still keep the profits from the game).

Deron Williams had 29 points and 14 assists as his Utah Jazz beat the L.A. Lakers 123-115 in overtime to even their second round series at 2-2. Kobe Bryant finished with 33 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds but a back injury that he suffered early in the game got progressively worse and significantly hindered him down the stretch.

Pressure is still on Utah, who can't afford to go down 3-1. Fewer TOs and more made jumpers and the Lakers can steal on in Salt Lake. A heartier constitution displayed by Pau Gasol won't hurt, either. BK
