During the season Utah always demonstrates high-quality play and this season was no exception, although there were several failed meetings. “Jazzmen” look confident in almost every game. They attack and defend their ring competently. Now the team has a streak of victories, which raised the club to the leaders of the Western conference. Utah looks especially powerful at home, where even the strongest teams in the league simply have no chances, which we saw in past fights, where Boston, Milwaukee and then Miami and Philadelphia fell. Only in the last game, for the first time in a long time, the jazzmen were defeated and even against the powerful Clippers on the road.
It looks like Washington has finally found its game. In recent matches the “capital” look much better. They managed to defeat Boston (104-91), Houston (119-113), Denver (130-128) and Portland (118-111). All this allowed the “sorcerers” to leave the last place in the East and move to the 13th line. It is worth noting the stable performance of Bradley Beale. In recent matches the Wizards leader has scored at least 25 points. Once again he confirmed that this year he deservedly got into the starting five for the All-Star Game.
