From the Salt Lake Tribune:

Sometimes, statistics lie.

Sometimes, they don't.

Take the Phoenix Suns' easy-as-they-come, 98-76 victory over the struggling Jazz on Friday night at America West Arena.

The Jazz managed only five field goals in the final 21 1/2 minutes. They scored 29 points in the second half. They scored a season low. They continued their league-worst pace by committing 23 turnovers. Only one player -- Karl Malone -- scored more than nine points.
