The set-up: The Jazz come to town off two straight losses to the Nets and Knicks. The Bucks have won three straight, most recently a 130-115 victory over Detroit. One of these teams is feeling a lot better about itself these days, while the other is on the verge of hitting the panic button. I obviously don't expect the Bucks to come out and overlook Utah, but I do think that the Jazz is for sure the "hungrier" dog in this fight.

The pick: The Bucks could rest starters as well in the second half of this non-conference game, with Cleveland coming to town tomorrow night as well. The Jazz will be risking life and limb here to try and pull off the upset and while that may not happen, I do expect this one to be decided by whichever of these teams has it hands on the ball last. I'm grabbing the points.

This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Utah Jazz.
