Utah made some believers today with a big win over Milwaukee. "I know all the headlines are going to say 'Utah upset Milwaukee', but we knew going in that we could play with these guys. It's no upset in my book," said Utah coach Coach Young. "We've had some trouble early on, but the team's finally getting it together. Just look at Bowling - he was unstoppable." Today's win certainly helps get their message out, but Utah still have some work ahead of them. Utah was led by Bowling (20 points, 6 boards, 0 assists, a block), Henderson (9 points, 14 boards, 0 assists, a block), Lacroix (15 points, 6 boards, 0 assists). Milwaukee was led by Thomas (18 points, 6 boards, 0 assists, a steal), Coleman (5 points, 14 boards, 0 assists, a block), Mcghee (19 points).

Utah are now 20-20 and 12-7 at home with today's win. They hold at #3 in the Northwest and stay at #9 overall in the Western Conference. Milwaukee broke their tear at 13 games, and drop to 30-10. They remain at #1 in the Central and remain at #1 overall in the Eastern Conference.
