    Buddy super confident - Jazz over Clippers

    I've made a solid amount riding the Clippers through their winning streak and games haven't been nearly as close as they should've been. A buddy of mine (who's an amazing capper) is telling me to take the Jazz tonight. With a spread of only 2 it makes you wonder that Vegas knows something we don't? Winning by at least 12 points in their last 7 games it's hard to take the Jazz in this matchup.

    Thoughts?

    clippers starters did not log as many mins last night. so the B2B angle i dont think is really there in this game. also cali to utah isnt a long trip. Mo Williams is not playing because his thumb still hurts. if you wanna take the jazz i would wait to get 3.5 or maybe even 4 later before tip...i will be taking the clippers at -3 tho. good luck on whatever side you take... remember crawford and barnes are on fire!!

    Vegas loves people like you, value is almost always in the dog, especially in a matchup with the fav playing so well

    The real mystery is why LAC is favored at all in this spot. 3rd game in 4th night, 2nd night of back to back, on the road.

    Clipps covered a similar spread earlier in the year at Utah didn't they? That was a close game until the end.

    I'm on Clips 2nite. No Mo Williams, Clip starters got plenty of rest, and have been getting plenty of rest each of their last few games. Clips are confident and on a streak. Vegas is looking for the sharps using the Jazz play homecourt well/ revenge factor/ clips are due for a loss angle imo

    Like I said before, show me another game where Mo, Foye and Haward shot as good from the perimeter as they did against the Clippers, all at the same time. They still lost by one.

    Also, this is not a game where the Jazz frontcourt has such an advantage. Yes, Millsap is the best jump shooter in both frontcourts and Jefferson the better 1x1 player, but off the ball and even finishing they have nothing on Jordan and Griffin plus they don't defend the pick 'n roll well. Then on the bench, Favors and Kanter wont have the usual advantage. Even when they dont score a lot they are always a threat usually (favors and kanter), but Odom even in not in his best shape has looked better and his one of you guys in the league who might not get that overwhelmed by favors quickness off the bounce. And Turiaf won't be demanding double teams like crazy. And when they do, it will be Bledsoe. Kid doesn't double team, Turiaf asks for help, he goes and stills the bigger guys lunch money.

    I don't see any advantage for Utah except... Utah.
