On May 15, as part of the regular season, the NBA will host a game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Utah Jazz. We offer you a forecast for this match.
Oklahoma City Thunder»
Without the two Canadian youngsters Gilges-Alekander and Dort, Oklahoma has serious problems. The team loses all the time, and still no one believes in it. But once a year, and the stick shoots. Especially in the NBA. We like to bet on obvious underdogs, especially in matches that don't formally decide anything.
"Utah Jazz»
Without Mitchell and Conley, Utah is losing, but it also shows that the team is just finishing the regular season, hoping to keep its strength in the playoffs. It is still unclear whether the first line in the West will give at least some advantage. Obviously, Snyder is hoping that the two star point guards will make the playoffs after all.
Injuries and disqualifications:
- Injuries:
- Gilges-Alexander (leg injury), Dort (knee injury), Muscala (ankle injury), Horford (coach's decision) – Oklahoma. Mitchell (ankle injury), Conley (muscle injury) - Utah.
Statistics and figures:
- Oklahoma has lost eight straight games;
- Utah has lost twice after five straight wins;
- Utah has won three of its last five games against Oklahoma.
Forecast:
We continue to hunt for big odds. We understand that the chances of Oklahoma winning are slim, but just look at the odds. It was about the same on the Thunder when they beat Boston on a road trip. "Utah" is clearly now in a relaxed state, just waiting for a little respite before the playoffs. So there may well be a sensation.
