OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- Almost nobody expected the new Utah Jazz to look
this good, this soon -- and absolutely nobody thought journeyman point guard
Keith McLeod would be a big part of it.

McLeod had 15 points and 10 assists, and Carlos Boozer added 16 points and
nine rebounds in a 102-80 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Friday
night.

Andrei Kirilenko scored 14 points and blocked five shots for the Jazz, who
never trailed in their second superb performance of the young season. Utah
shot nearly 59 percent, played solid defense and made a prolonged run in the
second half to snap a four-game losing streak in Oakland.

Derek Fisher scored 15 of his 17 points in the second quarter for the
Warriors, who lost their second straight with little help from Troy Murphy
and Jason Richardson. They signed six-year contract extensions this week
worth a combined $128 million, but shot a combined 6-for-28 against the
Jazz.

``They sliced and diced us pretty good,'' Montgomery said. ``They really run
their stuff. I sure like that. They know how to play basketball. They cut,
they know where everybody is, and they play with a tremendous amount of
confidence.''
