Upcoming 4 Game Road Trip Predictions: CLE, MIA, ORL, ATL

[MTS]

Jazz weren't technically the best defensive team in the league.

They have been ever since Rudy became the FT starter.

Huh?
#1 ppg allowed: 85.0 ppg
#1 Def Eff: 90.3
So who technically is better defensively than the Jazz?

Will be very happy with 2-2. Not surprised if we go 1-3.

Before the start of the season my prediction until the end of november was 7-9, and for this road trip 1-3. Now I voted 2-2, as long as the team plays good defense anything can happen.

Why do so many people assume we're gonna lose to Cleveland? Irving is still injured, and our defense has been far better than Cleveland's.

Hayward gonna light up LeBron just like last year.

Cleveland's defense has actually been pretty good and their offense has been amazing, even without Kyrie. They've played a similarly easy schedule as the Jazz (you could argue easier with 2 games against Philly already) but they're on a 6-game win streak and I think our game might play out a lot like their win over Miami.

I was hoping 2-2. I watched most of the Heat-Raptor game and Miami surprised me a bit. They look pretty deep and at times their defense was lock down.

Could definitely be a 1-3 trip.

I say we go 2-2, but for now enjoy this:

Cleveland is our first real test to see if our defense is as good as touted. Considering Portland obliterated us, I have my doubts.

0-4 11% chance
1-3 26% chance
2-2 51% chance
3-1 11% chance
4-0 1% chance

I think Portland is one of those teams that, once schemed for, will struggle and I think Detroit just gave the league the blueprint.

I didn't watch the game. Is the blueprint to outscore them 41-11 in the 4th qtr?

The blueprint is to have a PG that can score 26 point in a quarter and a historically dominant big man that can give you 29 pts/27 rebounds. It's a pretty simple blueprint don't you think?
