Salt Lake City, May. 9. - So much for Carlos Boozer's slump and the Lakers' unbeaten run through the playoffs.Boozer scored 27 points and tied a career playoff-high with 20 rebounds to lead Utah to a 104-99 victory Friday night, cutting Los Angeles' lead in the Western Conference semifinals to 2-1.
The Jazz handed the Lakers their first loss of this season's playoffs and got back into the series by doing at home what they couldn't do on the road. The Jazz hit exactly half their shots and forced the Lakers into 18 turnovers, looking very little like the team that stumbled through two straight losses in Los Angeles to open the series.
