VIDEO: Jazz beat Rockets on controversial Derrick Favors dunk

Russ Isabella-USA TODAY Sports

If the Houston Rockets miss the playoffs by one game and the Utah Jazz get in, Houston can look back on tonight.

The Toyota Center crowd's chants of "Defense" didn't really do much as Utah's Derrick Favors put away the easy game-winner with 1.6 seconds left Wednesday night. With the victory, the Jazz moved into eighth place in the West by a half-game.

As Jason Terry reacts after the play however, Favors' move wasn't without controversy. The back of his right foot appeared to have been out of bounds.
