Utah @ New Orleans

**SparJMU** · 04-09-10, 07:48 AM

By the way I don't post my picks too often, I am hoping for some feedback on this one. I feel like the general public will be all over the Jazz so I am scared I am missing something.

**PAULYPOKER** · 04-09-10, 08:07 AM

I dohno man My Jazz is on the brink of self destruction right now

Good luck

Care to elaborate Pauly? If you are a Jazz fan you probably know much better than I do.

Personally I think you should throw that Houston game right out the window considering they played a game to 140 the night before, and arrived in Houston at 4 am. So if we forget about the Houston game, they are 7-3 in their last 10 games, all 3 losses coming on the road.

My biggest worry here is that Utah is such a better home team and often play poorly on the road, but at the same time shouldn't they be extremely focused down the home stretch?

I like utah

**PAULYPOKER** · 04-09-10, 08:26 AM

Hornets have been tuff at home lately and the Jazz are damaged goods from the ass beating Lakers gave em, they basically feel like why even try we can't get pass the Lakers anyhow not literally but this has to be weighing in on their deep subconscious, what I'm trying to say is they are still licking their wounds IMO

**SparJMU** · 04-09-10, 08:55 AM

Gotcha. Thanks for the feedback.

I guess the question then is whether the Jazz will roll over and die, or whether Sloan can get them to make a run at it down the stretch. I think I am going to bet some money that the Jazz win this one, but I appreciate the constructive feedback.

Would playing the over be more "safer"?

**SparJMU** · 04-09-10, 09:40 AM

A lot of people whose opinions I respect are actually betting Under today. I am not a credible source whatsoever when it comes to over/unders, so I would look elsewhere.

I would say the over 207.5 is a pretty good play

**migz** · 04-09-10, 09:51 AM

Line up to +7.5. What do you guys think? I like NOH+7.5

Definitely.

**mart59a** · 04-09-10, 11:14 AM

Is Okurs status a factor?

**bigdaddyjames** · 04-09-10, 12:22 PM

i like utal and the over AND i am pretty good at NBA .......

**talnted** · 04-09-10, 12:40 PM

At first glance, I like Utah here as well. I am looking more into this game right now.

**NickS8753** · 04-09-10, 12:41 PM

looking good to me

**SparJMU** · 04-09-10, 02:03 PM

Thanks bigdadd and talnted. If you guys come up with anything to change your minds let me know. As of now I am risking 2 or 3 units on the Jazz.

**og4667** · 04-09-10, 03:54 PM

betting the JAzz to cover 7.5 pts on the road doesn't sound like a good idea especially on a friday. If anything you gotta take the points.

**Cornerback** · 04-09-10, 03:58 PM

Yeah, I like the UNDER.

**Nomocino** · 04-09-10, 04:01 PM

I have a feeling the Jazz will show up big tonight, by 10

**SparJMU** · 04-09-10, 04:05 PM

All right well I am checking out for the night. I bet the Jazz when it was 6.5, I might hedge part of that at NO +7.5 because I am losing confidence. 90% of the public is on CHC and UTAH, two road favorites. Something's gotta give.
