The Dallas Mavericks (49-29) vs. The Utah Jazz (52-26)The Mavs dominate at home and the Jazz are, well, how do you say, stinky on the road. Mavs are 32-7 at home. Jazz are 17-22 on the road. Dallas is the favorite 66% and Utah is the underdog at 34%.
The Mavericks won the first game on December 8th with the score of 125-117. Josh Howard led the way with 47 points and 10 rebounds for the Mavs. The Mavericks then went to Utah and lost 99-90 on December 26th. Dirk led the Mavs with 20 points and 9 boards. On March 3rd, the Mavs went back out to Utah and lost again with a 116-110 score, with Howard putting up 25 points, Dirk had 7 boards, and Kidd dished out 9 assists. This is the final regular season game between the two.
The only think left to point out is that the Mavericks have split the last ten and the Jazz are 8-2 over their last ten.
The Mavericks are really gelling right now. I think they are going to steamroll into the playoffs. I still think my most recient hunch will be on the money (a Mavs first round exit), however, that may change come playoff time. This team is getting better and better. Look for a killing tonight. Forecast: Mavs win - 103-97.Home Plate
