Thunder came from start to Knicks, where the stars seemed to work together. Jazz is usually a stable home team and won a victory in first match, but they lost a tight and hard battle tonight against Timberwolves and should be hard at making points.
IT TALKS FOR THE TIP:
Thunder came very well from the start in the first match against Knicks, where all the stars performed. (* 1)
Thunder defensive looks solid – and in the first match, only the uniqueness of Porzingis caused Thunder problems. (* 2)
Jazz lost a tight match tonight against Timberwolves – The Jazz squad is not very wide and R. Hood was injured. (* 3)
Thunder has a massive matchup advantage on the PG and SF position, where Westbrook and George are among the best in the league.
Jazz did not really impress Nuggets, where it was back until Nuggets went down in the fourth quarter.
Thunder has every man ready and Westbrook, Melo and Adams were all held for 35 minutes in the Knicks match.
YOU SHOULD HAVE EYE WITH:
Thunder has probably had a lot of focus on the first match at home and against Melo’s former team Knicks (statement match)
Should you point out a weakness in the Thunder defensive, then the PF / C position, where Jazz has Favors and Gobert, can cause problems. (* 4)
Thunder has a match again Sunday against Timberwolves – which can take the focus of this match.
Thunder won 3 out of 4 matches against Jazz last season, but only 1 victory was more than 3 points.
Jazz is usually a good home team, and they created a nice comeback in the first game in which Nuggets was defeated.
