This is an 8* on the OVER

The best teams from each conference meet Monday in Salt Lake City. The Jazz have made a strong case to be considered the league’s best team this year as they have won 18 of their last 19 games to get to 22-5 on the year. The Sixers are 18-9 and have actually lost two in a row, both on the road to Western Conference teams (Portland, Phoenix). It’s going to be a tall task to finish this four-game road trip with a .500 record. But we do expect there to be lots of points from both sides tonight. Four players scored 25 or more points for the Jazz in Friday night’s very impressive win against Milwaukee. In this 7-0 start to February, there has been only one game where Utah failed to score at least 112. The Sixers are 9-3 Over the L12 games. The Over is 4-0 in the Jazz’s last four Monday games.
