SALT LAKE CITY -- One win and they’re in.
After struggling mightily in the early going, the Trail Blazers settled in and settled down to come away with a 105-98 victory versus the Utah Jazz in front of a crowd of 6,506 Wednesday night in Salt Lake City.
“I like that we kept our composure after a slow start,” said Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts. “We didn’t shoot the ball well, we got down early on the road and we kept our composure, kept competing, found a way to make it close in the first quarter.
