Inside the Utah Jazz's fourth-quarter run that set them up for Game 2 win over Rockets

With 8:04 remaining in Game 2 between the Utah Jazz and Houston Rockets Wednesday night, Rockets guard Eric Gordon made a 3-pointer to lift his team from a one-point deficit to a two-point advantage.

Given that Houston had come back from 19 points down in the second quarter and only trailed by a point entering the fourth, it appeared that the shot might have been the beginning of a game-ending run that would see the Rockets take a 2-0 series lead.

Instead, Houston wound up scoring only two points over the next 4:34 as the Jazz built a 12-point lead that proved too much for the Rockets to be recover from.
