The Utah Jazz have started 3-5, a much better situation than they found themselves in last season when they started the season 0-8, and 1-14. The Jazz will take the floor in Atlanta as an underdog for the ninth straight time, and they certainly have played over the line, netting the point spread win in four of their last six. Atlanta has been mediocre, starting the season at 3-3. While they have gotten balanced scoring, they really don't have the pure scorer to bail themselves out when things get testy or down the stretch. The Hawks have had issues vs. the Western Conference where they own a 1-6 ATS mark in their last seven, and the Jazz have stepped up when they are on a day of rest at 5-1 ATS in their last six. Take Utah in this one.
