Utah Jazz vs Golden State Warriors Prediction

The Utah Jazz are a bad team that's on the end of a back-to-back and banged up. The Warriors should win and should win comfortably. The problem is, the Warriors also shouldn't be a game below a .500 record. The Warriors have underachieved all year, and they're still down two of their best players in Green and Kuminga. The Warriors are also 1-7 ATS in their last eight games as a double-digit favorite. The Warriors have had issues simply winning night to night, so seeing them as a double-digit favorite is a bit odd. While I don't want to back the Jazz as much as the next guy, I can't get involved with the Warriors and this line. If forced to pick, I'm going to side with the Jazz and the boatload of buckets.
