Utah Jazz vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction

The Utah Jazz haven’t shown much heart defensively in two games and got rocked by the Warriors. Going on the road probably doesn’t help matters. The Dallas Mavericks will be eager to get a nasty taste out of their mouth after a loss to the Suns, and they have the offensive horses to bury the Jazz similar to how the Warriors did. Big number, but it’s nothing the Mavs can’t cover if those shots are falling. Give me the Mavs in a comfortable home win.
