SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah Jazz have a lot of things to worry about as they begin their best-of-seven playoff series with Golden State, but one of the main tasks will be figuring out a way to slow down the Thunder’s big three of Russell Westbrook, Paul George and Carmelo Anthony.
Those three average 63.5 points per game among them, third-best in the NBA for top-scoring trios in the league. Westbrook is the league’s reigning MVP, George is a five-time all-star, while Anthony is a 10-time all-star.
“It’s hard to pick one focus,” said Jazz coach Quin Snyder.
