6th. Houston in 1995.

Cool dude must be a new jazz fan... that year sucked hard.

No I'm not a new jazz fan. Just couldn't remember off hand.

I'm messing with you... there is a scar there for me... I know where I was when we lost and thinking it was totally unfair to get them in the first round. I was in jr. High and may have shed a tear or two.

Yeah, hated those Rockets teams back then.

We would've won the title if we could've gotten by Houston in '95

Yep. The two years Jordan was out. I felt like the first year the Jazz went the rest of the top teams in the West were kind of like "I don't want to pay him, you go pay him." "Nah, let's let the Jazz play him, they'll play anyone."

Some predictions (re-posted from playoff chase thread)


I can already see a couple of spicy match-ups.


- Bulls vs Celtics, Rondo going back to the TD Garden. He won't back down against Isaiah. If Butler and Wade are both healthy as well to me that could be a closer match than most anticipate


- Rockets vs Thunder, Harden vs Westbrook? Wow, I mean you couldn't have scripted this any better.


- Cavs vs Pacers, LeBron vs PG13? Pacers gave Cavs a hard time that went to OT just last week.


- Raptors vs Bucks, Carnivore vs Herbivore, in theory Raptors should be able to swallow Bucks alive.


- Grizz vs Spurs, I think this could go 7 games. Grizz gave Spurs a hard time all year long.

Clips are tough but win or lose this season has been fun. Great team great dudes great organization. This team is really good. The west is something else man... just tough.

Appreciate it and enjoy the moment.

Agreed. Well put

Rockets vs okc should be loads of fun

Does anybody know what was the lowest seed team to ever win the NBA championship?

95 rockets were 6 seed. Pretty sure that was lowest. Also, thanks for the painful memories.

You just know that Snyder and his staff have entire game plans already laid out for the Clippers. Y'all ready to watch some mad scientist stuff go down?
