Bodies crashing to the ground, athletes rolling in pain, even some blood being shed. The Jazz's 98-96 loss to Sacramento on Saturday certainly had the feel of a playoff game.
   
An XFL playoff game.
   
Yet amid all the adrenaline, the intense matchup was decided by contact that fell a little short of brutal, the Jazz growled afterward.
   
"I just saw it on film," coach Jerry Sloan said of a foul whistled on John Amaechi, who was trying to rebound John Stockton's missed free throw with 2.0 seconds remaining. "You all have your own opinion on it. I'm not going to say anything about it. . . . But that's about as strange as it gets."
   
Chris Webber, who scored 27 points, 13 of them from the free-throw line, was the beneficiary of referee Marc Davis' call, and he calmly sank two free throws to break a 96-96 tie and send the Jazz to their third straight loss.
