2010 NBA Playoffs: The Utah Jazz stunned the Nuggets with a 114-111 win at the Pepsi Center on Monday night. The Nuggets will look to exact a little revenge this evening as the two division foes square off in game three of their best of seven playoff series at the EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City. Tip off is scheduled for 10:30pm ET on ESPN2. 2010 NBA Playoffs Game 3 Odds & Picks at SBGglobal.com have the Jazz listed as a -140 moneyline favorite in tonight's contest.
Utah knotted up this series 1-1 with a 114-111 win on Monday, handing the Nuggets just their eighth loss of the season at the 
Pepsi Center. The Jazz overcame 18 turnovers by knocking down 53 percent of its field goals and six of their 13 attempts from beyond the arc. Carlos Boozer, who showed no signs of injury, played big inside for Utah as he scored 20 points and grabbed 15 rebounds. It was Deron Williams who led the team, though, with a 33 point, 14 assist night.
The Nuggets shot fairly well as a whole, hitting 47 percent from the floor, but they connected on just four of 18 from downtown in Monday's loss. Carmelo Anthony followed up his tremendous game one outing with a 32 point, six rebound, four assist, three steal effort, but it proved too little against the red hot Jazz. Chauncey Billups also had a solid outing, dropping in 17 points while dishing out 11 assists.
The road has not exactly been kind to Denver as it has gone 19-22 away from the Pepsi Center this season. EnergySolutions Arena, in particular, has been a house of horrors for the Nuggets in recent years with Denver winning just twice in its last 10 trips to Salt Lake. Carmelo and company can at least hang their hat on the fact that they did get a 105-95 win there in January.
Utah, for its part, has gone an impressive 32-9 at home this season. The Jazz had won 10 in a row at EnergySolutions prior to their 86-100 loss to Phoenix in the regular season finale.
2010 NBA Playoffs Betting Trend: The Under is 9-1 in the Nuggets last 10 games playing as a road dog against a Northwest Division opponent.
