Betting on the Golden State Warriors
The Warriors are once again grinning after a terrible stretch that made it seem unlikely that they would be able to compete for the NBA title once more. Despite their remarkable improvements, however, they still have some areas to improve, one of which is their performance away from home, where they have a dismal record of 2 wins and 10 losses.
As a result, San Francisco should be concerned about this game because, despite their recent dominance over the Jazz, the home team won eight out of their last ten meetings, which goes against San Francisco this time.
Led by an inspired Stephen Curry, the reigning NBA champions have been great on offense, averaging 117.7 points scored per game; however, on the other hand, their defense has been very poor, especially away from home, where they have allowed an average of 122.7 points.
Betting on the Utah Jazz
The Jazz were anticipating a challenging rebuilding season, and after a strong first month of play, things appear to be taking a more natural course. Despite still having a winning record, the Jazz have only picked up two victories in their past eight games.
This included a painful loss at home against the Portland Trail Blazers in their most recent game, in which they were unable to bounce back from a lousy first quarter and ended up losing 116-111. Jordan Clarkson was the team’s top scorer with 24 points, followed by Lauri Markkanen who contributed another 21 points.
Like their opponent, the Jazz have shown offensive strengths this season, averaging 117.7 points scored per game. Still, they have been very weak on defense, allowing an average of 115.5 points, something they already showed in their previous matchup against the Warriors.
JefeBet Prediction
The Warriors are currently playing well, but now they must deal with the biggest issue they have had this season: playing away from home. This task will be particularly tough this time around considering their poor offensive performance and the host team’s offensive prowess.
But those same words could also be used to describe the Jazz, who have been very sloppy defensively: not even at home, where they have an 8-4 record, have they been able to produce strong defensive showings.
Seven of the last ten meetings between the Warriors and the Jazz, including the only one they have played this season, ended in the Over. Given the performances both teams have had on offense and defense, we anticipate this game to be entertaining and continue the trend of giving us a score with many points.
Prediction: Over.
