SALT LAKE CITY— Utah Jazz won tonight’s game 106-99 againt the Cleavland Cavaliers. Playing in the Energy Solutions Arena, Andrei "AK-47" Kirilenko was the key member to take this win. Providing the team with 21 blocks and 21 points, Kirilenko says "that he had lots of energy for this game and was prepared for it."

After the game, Kirilenko told why he took the Jazz to the top. " After last week’s loss against the Lakers and being blocked by Koby Briant while attempting my dunk, I decided that I was going to block others tonight."

Paul Milsap and C.J. Miles showed great games tonight actually gaining points to the win. The score was 100-99 with one minute left in the game when Milsap made a three-pointer. Running back down the court toward Cavaliers’ basket, Miles stole the ball away and made another and the final three-pointer winning the game.

Lebron James from the Cleveland Cavaleirs said " while we were never in the lead, we were in the game the whole time. It was the crowd that actually took us out of the game."
Utah Jazz Head Coach Jerry Sloan "feels that the guys could do better on defense."
Boozer was the high scorer of the game with 29 points.
The Utah Jazz can been seen at their next game this Friday, Nov. 9 in Seattle.
