Loved what happened last night... Good thing no moose was found in Miami.
Jazz -5.5
Seems like everyone likes Denver because of the playoff push but i did see something that can motivate the Jazz to play good tonight. Assuming it's going to be HOU and UTAH in the 1st round, HOU will get homecourt advantage but with the schedule remaining, there's a chance Utah can still get the homecourt. HOU has @Den, @Utah, LAC - not sure if home or away but who cares, LAC will lose either way. UTAH has Den, Hou, @SAS. Series between them is 1-1. So here's the scenario, Jazz beats Den and then Den beats HOU tomorrow and Jazz beats HOU the next day. Both teams will be tied so it depends if Jazz beats SAS to get homecourt assuming both have the same record. Am i nostradamus...? Anyway, Denver has HOU tomorrow so i doubt they'll play extremely hard tonight. Den just needs two wins to clinch so why try to play hard against a very good home team while you can just play hard at home with the crowd backing you up? Also, Utah just lost the last game and they usually bounceback strong at home. Oh boy... i just confused myself on this writeup... Go Jazz Go! LOL.
