JAZZ NOTES

Neither Stockton nor Malone was willing to declare the series over. Each said the Jazz must not lose their focus for Game 4 on Sunday.

“We need to come out Sunday like it’s our last game of the season,” Stockton said.

Said Malone: “We’ve put ourselves in a great position. We’re going to come out Sunday and play with the same determination. Now, it’s down to a one-game series.”
