A series of mistakes by Utah gave Denver the 110-94 upset. "We just lost our focus," said Utah coach Coach Young. "Frankly, they were overmatched and they knew it. We did what we wanted for most of the game, but just blew it. What a tough way to go. You have to give them credit - they stuck around against a tougher opponent and were in position to take advantage when we gave them freebies."
