The Triple Team: Conley breaks out and thanks the fans in 29-point, game-changing performance

Three thoughts on the Utah Jazz’s 110-96 win over the L.A. Clippers from Salt Lake Tribune Jazz beat writer Andy Larsen.

The Jazz gave up a 17-6 run to end the 2nd quarter that turned what had been a torrid start until a bit of a wash, with Utah only up one going into the break. All of a sudden, a game that the Jazz looked like they should win was in real doubt.

And then Mike Conley showed us that he still is Mike Conley. His scintillating third quarter run, in which he scored 18 points on 6-8 shooting (including 4-4 from 3-point range), adding two assists and two steals, was the Conley that Jazz fans have dreamed about for over half a year now.
