(Odds for the Utah Jazz ML is currently around 1.20.)
The Utah Jazz faced a tough Portland Trail Blazers team out for revenge after the All Star Break and it resulted in their long 11 game win streak finally ending. When looked at another way, the Utah Jazz are still 11-1 in their last 12 games. The Dallas Mavericks have lost 3 games in a row and their playoff hopes ended long ago. The Jazz won the first meeting in Utah by 15 points. The question is was the loss by the Jazz to the Blazers just a momentary hick-up? I'm leaning YES...
My pick is the Utah Jazz ML.
(I am currently in the negative with my picks. Game starts in about 12 minutes.)
