With Utah leading 66-46 in the third quarter, Williams threaded a pass from the top of the key to Harpring under the basket for an easy layup.

Bogut, who received a loud ovation from the crowd of 16,176 fans, cut the margin to 15 at 74-59 later in the third with a two-handed dunk on a missed layup by Bobby Simmons. Jiri Welsch made a free throw to get Milwaukee within 74-60. But Brown tipped in a rebound just before the buzzer and the Jazz led 77-60 at the end of three periods.

The Bucks didn't make much of a run in the fourth, and when they did the Jazz answered right back. Williams started a 9-0 run for the Jazz with a layup, Jarron Collins and Okur scored after pulling down offensive rebounds and Brown hit a 3-pointer to put Utah up 92-70.
