SALT LAKE CITY — One of the main things the Utah Jazz were determined to change in Saturday night’s Game 3 against Houston was a better start. The Jazz couldn’t afford to dig themselves a hole as they had in the first two games, particularly Game 2 when they trailed by 20 after the first quarter.
“We’ve got to come out here and set the tone and put together a game we feel good about,” said Kyle Korver, a veteran of 12 straight years of playoffs. “We haven’t played like us.”
So Jazz coach Quin Snyder decided to change his starting lineup and switch up his usual rotation.
