Denver improved to 51-24, the third-best record in the West, with the rare blowout win in Utah."I think it is a solid win for us in a race that is probably going to go down to the last week,” said Denver coach George Karl, whose team has a half-game lead over Memphis and a two-game edge against the Clippers in playoff positioning for the 3-5 spots.Utah’s Gordon Hayward scored 18 points while Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap each contributed 16, but the Jazz saw their season-high winning streak end.
