A week ago, the Jazz had a hard time anytime they matched up against one of the elite teams in the NBA.

But for the third time in as many games, they battled one to the wire, this time falling short.

For the Boston Celtics, 129, 119, it's postcast.

David Locke along with Ron Boone bringing you postcast tonight.

We got to do this fast because I got to get Vegas for New Year's baby.

Oh, wait, maybe for something else.

1115 flight out of here.

I think we'll make it.

I really thought this was, you know, this game is the Jazz leaded by three at the half.

I think it was the game does not go outside of six

points for about a span of about 20 minutes of basketball. So this was back and forth playing

toe to toe, possession by possession. I thought really good game planning from both coaches,

good fun systems to run. This was a really enjoyable game tonight. And I thought it was another step in the

right direction by the jazz. I totally agree with that, David. And like you, I enjoy watching

this basketball game as well, because you can see the players that needed to make plays,

made plays in the game. It wasn't necessarily a stellar defensive team from either side of the ball,

but it was still fun to watch. And you look at a guy like Derek White, for the most part,

took over the ball game during their fourth quarter. Derek White had a historic night tonight.

There are only four players or three players since the year 2000 that are guards that have had 25 points, five rebounds,

five assists and five blocks in a game.

He finished the night tonight with a 27 points, five rebounds, seven or seven rebounds, six

assists, and seven block shots tonight.
