Wednesday night NBA sees a potential first-round matchup between the Jazz and Nuggets. The truth, though, is that these two will avoid each other at least one round if the two get their way.

The Nuggets are looking to maintain the No. 2 (or even No. 1) seed out West, while the Jazz are looking to improve upon their current sixth-place standing.

The Nuggets open as seven-point favorites.

Utah Jazz

The Utah Jazz enter this contest averaging 110.1 points per game. That number is only good enough to put the Jazz in the No. 20 spot in that category this season.

Defensively, Utah is giving up just 106.7 points per contest. That number puts them inside the top five of the league.

When looking at advanced metrics, Utah’s offense is shone in a brighter light, but the team does still remain in the bottom half of the league.

As far as Offensive Efficiency goes, the Jazz are No. 18 as of this writing, scoring 107.2 points per 100 possessions.

On defense, Utah is a top-three team this season as far as advanced metrics are concerned.

On the year, this group is giving up just 103.8 points per 100 possessions, putting it behind only the No. 2 Indiana Pacers and No. 1 Milwaukee Bucks in Defensive Efficiency.

Denver Nuggets

The Denver Nuggets enter this contest scoring 112.3 points per night. That number is only good enough for 13th in the Association, but that raw stat is heavily influenced by the team’s slog of a pace.

On the year, the team is 28th in pace.

When looking at Offensive Efficiency—an advanced metric that does not take pace into account—Denver rises all the way to No. 4 in the country, posting 111.1 points per 100 possessions.

Defensively, the Nuggets are giving up an average of 106.9 points per contest. But again, that’s taking pace into account, as the number is good enough for sixth in the league.

When looking at Defensive Efficiency, the Nuggets fall to 11th, currently tied with the Detroit Pistons.

This group is giving up 106.6 points per 100 possessions.

Free Utah Jazz vs. Denver Nuggets NBA Prediction: Jazz make this a game.

The Denver Nuggets had an odd three-game skid recently, but they’ve recovered nicely and currently have a five-game winning streak to their name.

But the Jazz are too good defensively to let the Nuggets’ offense walk all over them.

4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Jazz ATS

Although an underdog SU win is very much in the realm of possibility here, we’re looking specifically at that spread as a very winnable one for the Jazz.

As long as Utah can keep this one relatively low-scoring, the road team should keep this competitive all the way through.

BetOnline Sportsbook Review

BetOnline is where I go when I want to get serious about the number. Early lines, high limits and a massive betting board give me more chances to find an edge before the market catches up. Football is especially strong, but there’s no shortage of props, futures, live wagering and action across the major sports. I’ve learned over the years that half a point here and ten cents there can make a hell of a difference. BetOnline gives me another place to find them. — Razor Ray
