We have a 5-2 record this week going into Saturday.
I looked at Saturday's games forever and came up with these 4.
My neck is killing me so the write-ups will be short.
I need to get away from the PC Saturday, so I will alert you via phone/text if anything else comes up.

UTAH JAZZ -8 vs NOrleans..................................9:00 EDT
NORL played OT last night in LaLaLand.
They fought hard to get back in that game and now fly to play a rested Jazz club that will be playing in tribute to their well-liked ( loved actually) owner Larry Miller who passed away at the young age of 64.
UTAH has won 6 straight at home, including 5 point wins over the Lakers and Celtics and 2 or 3 20 point blowouts.
