Utah at Minnesota – All That Jazz

February 25, 2009

The Utah Jazz (34-23 SU, 31-26 ATS, 30-26-1 O/U) are on a Philly cheesesteak sized roll, having won and covered the spread in five straight games and eight of their last nine games overall.

The Minnesota Timberwolves (18-38 SU, 26-29-1 ATS, 31-23-2 O/U) have lost three straight games and eight of its last nine overall while going an uninspiring 2-7 against the spread during the span.

Underrated shooting guard Ronnie Brewer scored a team-high 19 points as the Jazz overpowered the Hawks 108-89 on Monday night to easily cover the spread as 7-point home favorites while the teams played under the 205-point O/U total.

Blossoming shooting guard Randy Foye scored a team-high 25 points for Minnesota in its 118-110 loss to Toronto on Tuesday night. The T-Wolves failed to cover the spread as 6.5-point road underdogs while the teams played over the 208-point O/U total.

U-T-A-H J-A-Z-Z, that’s how.

Despite being on the road in this matchup – and dropping three of four against the spread against the Timberwolves – the red-hot Jazz roll to a double-digit win in what may be the easiest pick on the board tonight.
