Deron Williams and Dee Brown help Utah roll over Warriors

Deron Williams showed why he is one of the top point guards in the NBA tonight, scoring 31 points and handing out 8 assists in Utah's playoff win over the Golden State Warriors. Deron played against Baron Davis for much of the game and held his own against the outstanding point guard. Dee Brown actually played some important minutes during the game and scored 6 important points, including a fast break layup against two defenders to tie the game late. Dee looked solid as a backup for Deron and played with Deron at some points to give Utah more quickness against the fast-breaking Warriors. I expect Dee Brown will see more action in this series due to his quickness and excellent defense against Baron Davis.

After some stellar plays by Deron and Dee, the TNT cameras showed Illini Coach Bruce Weber in the stands enjoying the game. He must be really proud to see two of his three guards on the floor for the Jazz.
