Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

Next 10 games
Jazz 8-2. Doable with schedule
Clippers 5-5 could easily be worse
Nuggets 7-3. Easyish schedule
Okc 6-4.
Por 6-4.
NO. 5-5. Tough schedule
Twolves 4-6. Could easily be worse. Brutal schedule, no Jimmy butler
Spurs 5-5. Also a brutal schedule. Could easily be worse

This is going to be an interesting finish if things play out like the schedules look

If it plays out close to that it will make 8 teams all within 3 games of each other for the 3 through 8 spots with 10 to 12 games left. This is one of the best closes to a season in a long time.

Are you considering that som of those teams have to win their tougher games because they are playing each other?

I didn't go through it that in depth, but I think it will be close to that. For the teams playing better right now I errored on their side for the win in a toss up. Then again I am pretty high so who knows.

Looking at the Nuggets, they could easily go 8-9 wins in their next 10 games. Its going to come down to whether or not teams like Cleveland, Indiana, Detroit, Milwaukee, etc... can help by beating some of the other teams ahead of the Jazz.
 
I’m going to bump the tank thread... every time I do we win like 7 straight.
 
The Kings, Suns, and Magic are a disgrace to the NBA.
So were the Jazz a few years ago. Your point? Those teams are looking to reset their rosters, just as DL did in his first couple of seasons. Lindsey just didn't go far enough and wasn't able to get multiple high draft picks. His only prize was Exum. Subsequent losing rosters only netted Lyles and picks he traded.

i give him credit for offsetting Burke with Gobert, getting a serviceable Hood which he's now parlayed into Crowder on the cheap, and turning Lyles into Mitchell. Of course he wasted a pick by trading for Hill (without securing an extension agreement) and then another 1st to get Bricky. If Dante turns out to be Mitchell's wingman, DL will look like a genius, though.

The Jazz have been struggling since the break, but it really is an easy next 10. I see them going 7-3 at worst. It's going to be Denver vs. Utah for the 8th seed.

Did Utah ever have eighteen wins on the season at this point in previous years? Can't recall.
 
We need to win some of these 50/50 games. I know we were favored against Porty, but I never felt great about that one. Will take 46 wins to make the playoffs imo... need to go 15-6... tall order.
