Utah is in the playoffs for the 20th consecutive season, the third-longest run in league history. This appearance comes with the usual faces -- Karl Malone, John Stockton and coach Jerry Sloan -- but also the possibility that it could be the final games together for the Big Three. Malone, whose 40th birthday is three months away, leads the Jazz in scoring (20.7), rebounding (7.8) and minutes (36.5) and has missed only one game. Small forward Matt Harpring has been a major addition. He has given Utah another scoring threat and has become a serious candidate for Most Improved Player. His 50.9 percent accuracy from the field is part of why the Jazz could lead the league in shooting.
