This is a 10* Northwest Division TOTAL OF THE YEAR on the UNDER Blazers/Jazz.
This one sets up as a lower-scoring defensive battle from a couple of different situational angles.
Portland is now just 11-11 after a 128-109 road loss at the Lakers. The Blazers only average 109.8 PPG, which is ranked 25th.
Note that they've seen the total go UNDER the number in eight of their last 12 after a 15 points or greater SU/ATS road loss in their previous outing.
The Jazz are now 14-11 after their 139-119 home win over the Pacers just last night. Utah averages 117.9 PPG, which is ranked third in the NBA, but I think fatigues will be a factor here in the second game of the back-to-back.
The last thing Portland wants to do is to turn this into a track meet. These teams played against each other in mid November, and Utah won by a score of 118-113 as a 4.5-point underdog. The total went OVER in that one, but the overall situation, combined with the above stats/numbers make the UNDER the correct call here in this rematch.
Good luck, NP
