Utah is supposed to be one of the worst teams in the league. It\u2019s the reason why they dumped a lot of their talent and stuck with a younger core that is aimed to get a top five draft pick. However, they\u2019ve been great to everybody&#8217;s surprise. The Jazz won their first two games of the season and have six guys averaging over 12 points per game on the year. Lauri Markkanen was one of the most prominent, as he averages 20.5 points and 8.5 rebounds per game. Even Jarred Vanderbilt is playing out of his mind right now. Averaging 13 boards a night. If there\u2019s anything that Utah does well, it\u2019s surprise opponents. I feel like this team is catching many squads off guard right now because they aren\u2019t very appealing on paper. But this group is clicking already. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other side of things, the Pelicans have won their first two games of the season as well. Their big four on their starting lineup is clearly playing well right now. They currently have four guys that average over 20 points per game this season, with those guys being Brandon Ingram, CJ McCollum, Zion Williamson and Jonas Valanciunas. Ingram is the one leading the charge with 28 points per game while Valanciunas pours in 22.5 points and 15 rebounds himself. McCollum averages 21 and Zion averages 20.5 points. New Orleans is just one of those rosters that make it difficult to defend against. Zion and Jonas are near impossible to defend throughout an entire game with them attacking the basket. To make matters worse, if you choose to block up the paint, Ingram and McCollum will tear you apart on the perimeter. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_2133,w_3200\/https:\/\/pelicandebrief.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/getty-images\/2017\/07\/1209988147.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"549\" height=\"365\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NBA Picks Today<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the pick of this game, I\u2019m going to be rolling with the Pelicans.

New Orleans has talent that makes what they&#8217;re doing sustainable while Utah appears to be just catching people off guard early on.
