Utah was looking like a serious Western Conference Playoff contender for the first half of the season. But the Jazz had to battle through perpetual injuries all season. It is true that Utah won the Northwest Division championship. However, they were not consistent enough to earn home-court advantage for the NBA betting postseason. Despite their lower seed, Utah opened as a favorite against the Dallas Mavericks in their opening-round playoff series. The Mavericks closed strong in the final weeks of the regular season. In fact, Dallas became one of the most profitable teams on the board.
