The Utah Jazz couldn't beat the Denver Nuggets during the regular season, but they aren't having much trouble with that in the playoffs.
The Jazz, the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference, are poised to advance against Northwest Division rival and No. 3 seed Denver when the teams meet for Game 5 of their first-round series Tuesday near Orlando.
After dropping the first game in overtime, Utah has won the last three to take a 3-1 lead in the series.
The Jazz won Games 2 and 3 by 19 and 37, respectively, but Sunday's Game 4 was tight.
