San Antonio at Utah

The San Antonio Spurs have taken a commanding 3-0 lead in their opening round series vs. Utah. One thing San Antonio is making clear, is that this isn't the same team that got bounced in the first round a year ago, as they have now won 13 straight games. They have held the jazz to 91 points or less in all three games, and it is the first time all year the Jazz haven't gotten 92 points for three straight games. Utah has one option, and one option only: slow the game down, use their offensive rebounding, and dig in on the defensive end, or it is over and out. First round playoffs Game 4s are notoriously UNDER, especially when both are off exactly one day of rest and the total is greater than 195, as the UNDER is 12-4. The Jazz are now 18-7-1 in their last 26 to the UNDER vs. an opponent with a road winning percentage of greater than .600. The last four in this series have all gone UNDER the total. Play on the UNDER.
