In this piece we will look at an NBA Totals Angle that applies to the Utah Jazz. Looking back over the past few seasons we note that teams who have played on the road the previous night and now come into Utah to take on Jazz are just 1-19 straight up. However if Utah played at home as a favorite of 5 or more points in their last game we see a real money maker taking shape. By looking at the graph below wee see that these games have played over 10 of the last 11 times. This may be due to the Utah Jazz up tempo style,coupled with an un rested team that just may not have the energy on defense in the second of back to back road games. These teams get roped into the up tempo style and while they can score with the Jazz, they are unable to stop then on defense. This scenario arises on Wednesday night when the Atlanta Hawks come to town off a hard fought win in Sacramento last night. The Jazz are rested off a home favored win over the Pistons as a nine point favorite. Look for this Totals angle to arise throughout the season, and capitalize by taking the over. Enjoy the totals angle below.
