My Prediction
Atlanta Hawks by 12As much as it pains me to say it, we're in for a bit of a lopsided affair today, folks—I mean, chums. On the one hand, we have the Utah Jazz, a team that's showing about as much grace as a wounded gazelle on roller skates. Their current record is a dismal 16-62. Their recent games have been more spillage than thriller, you don't need to be a maths genius to see that.
On the bright side, Utah really has some standout talent: John Collins and Collin Sexton are putting up some decent numbers, if you like reading into stats like that. John Collins, in particular, has been lighting it up with an average of 25 points per game last month. But let's not kid ourselves, the numbers aren't everything, especially when you're clocking more losses than a GPS on the fritz.
Switching gears to the Atlanta Hawks, we've got a team who's not exactly having a stellar season themselves, but they're pulling off a somewhat reasonable 36-41. Trae Young has been cooking up a storm with his 25.6 points per game in the last month - not too shabby, eh?
Looking back at the past clashes between these two teams, they've been close, but the Hawks have pretty much been plucking the Jazz’s feathers.
In summary, if the Jazz are dueling banjos, then the Hawks are a symphony orchestra - not perfect, but at least they can keep time. So, here's how I see the chips falling...
