Atlanta Hawks – Utah Jazz: topicality and form
Very inconsistent at the start of the season, the Hawks are unable to really connect and have never managed this season to win more than 2 games in a row. Defeated by the Nets (108-117) in their last game, the Atlanta players have very average results this season and are the 17th offense in the league, with 107.9 points registered on average per game. Against the Jazz, very solid since the start of the season, Atlanta will have to change course both offensively and defensively while the Hawks are currently the 13th defense in the NBA.
On the Jazz side, the record is much more comfortable: 1st in the Western Conference, tied with the Warriors, Utah had started its season perfectly with 4 wins in 4 games. Defeated by the Bulls (99-107), the Utah players have rebounded well and remain on 2 wins. In front of their public, the Jazz will want to continue to advance and will count for this on Donovan Mitchell, author of 36 points in the victory against the Kings, and on Rudy Gobert, 15.7 points and 17.6 rebounds on average since the start of the season.
The Jazz is the favorite of this meeting and will want to continue on the floor of the Hawks. Too fickle since the start of the season, the Atlanta players are likely to bow to their home crowd against a very fit Utah team. A victory for Jazz therefore seems logical.
