Lights became the main discovery of the last season, when thanks to the desire for victory and character they reached the final, but lost in the Lakers series (2:4). The team has become a real leader in the league and it will be very interesting to see what the club will show in this NBA draw. Miami was not very active in the transfer market. However, there was no reason for this. Rumor has it that the Hit management is aiming to invite Yannis Adetokunbo, who will become a free agent in 2021. The star player himself is not averse to changing his registration. Erik Spoelstra’s players lost the previous meeting with Orlando (107:113), which was clearly a surprise, so there is no doubt that hosts will be in the right mood for the match against Pelicans.
The Jazzmen also finished last year’s performance in the first round of the playoffs, although unlike Portland they showed character and fought to the last. We saw seven games in the series against Denver and each of them was spectacular. Utah did not change their line-up much and, to be honest, this is the right decision. The team is quite combat-ready. There is a brightly highlighted leader, as well as a good coach runs the “Jazz”, so this club can be called a “dark horse” that can surprise. Queen Snyder’s team have not lost a single match in preparation for the new season, as they dealt with Phoenix twice and then replaced the Clippers (125:105).
