New Orleans struggled defensively last year and that definitely will not be helped by the pause. Look for the Pelicans defensive woes to continue to struggle and that will cost the Pelicans the chance to win the game as the Jazz take advantage of the weaker defense of New Orleans to win the game outright as the underdog. Final Score, Utah Jazz win 119-111.
