2. Second game we lost by 6 with Gobert fresh off a return.

3. We got blown out in the third game without Gobert.

4. We have not played them since December.

5. They locked Donovan down with Roberson.

6. We have never faced them since the defensive emergence of Royce.

7. We have had JJ and Hood when we played them.

8. They have not faced us with Crowder.

9. They have never game-planned for the new-look Jazz.

10. Carmelo sucks.

We also we're blowing them out in that second game but we had played a ridiculous schedule and that was a rough back to back and the Jazz ran out of energy. It was very apparent in that game jazz simply had nothing in the tank.

We can beat them. Then they will break up, just like clippers.

This is what I'm talking about (I haven't actually been talking about it). All these people worried about how the pre-surge Jazz played. Don't you guys realize this team that is about to go to the playoffs is NOT THE SAME TEAM that was what, 19-28? Throw everything that team did out the window. That's not the team headed for the playoffs.

I'm not going to go crazy and flat out say the jazz are better than the Warriors or the Rockets, but other than those guys, the Jazz have been the best team in the west for a while now.

OKC hopes they don't draw a matchup with the Jazz in the first round. Just like every other team we might play. None of them want to face us.
 
Well there's a really good chance Memphis at least tries against OKC, they're locked into 2nd in the tank race. Hopefully Gasol goes bonkers, but I'm not going to hold my breath

It dates back to last year tho. Jazz were 1-3 against them last year despite being the superior team.

Adams doesn't outplay Gobert, but he certainly annoys him.

How does Rubio matchup defensively against the hyper athletic Russ?

They have one of the best perimeter defenders to stick on Mitchell in PG13. Will that ruin our offense?
 
OKC just matches up well against us.

The hyper athlete PGs give Rubio trouble.

Long defenders give Mitchell trouble.

Physical centers can bother Rudy.

I just hope Ingles actually shows up this year offensively in the playoffs because I don't think the Jazz can beat OKC if he doesn't.
 
The biggest positive for the Jazz is that Melo has sucked this year. I still worry about him getting hot and winning OKC a game tho.
