The Utah Jazz shattered records, albeit dubious ones in a 96-54 embarrassment in Game 3 of the NBA Finals to give the Chicago Bulls a 2-1 series lead. The margin of victory was the highest in the Finals.
Not only did the Jazz score the fewest points ever in the Finals, breaking a 43-year-old mark when Syracuse lost to Fort Wayne 74-71 in 1955, but it was at the time the fewest points in an NBA game.
The Bulls held the Jazz to 30 percent shooting and forced 26 turnovers — a Jazz franchise high in the playoffs.
