Rockets x2
Portland x2
Blazers x2
OKC x2 (once on a b2b)
GSW
Sixers
Eh, traveling is as much about geography and conference make up as anything.
here's SOS based on Pelton's projections:
Harden, Westbrook, CP3, AD, Curry, Durant, Thompson, and now Lebron. The East has Hayward and a gimpy Kwahi. There's your statistical correlation.So eastern conference travels less and wins less. Western conference travels more and wins more.
I wonder if there is a statistical correlation?

Unless I miscounted, the Jazz only play the Warriors three times. That's huge, almost like an extra win built in.

It is skewed to the West but there are 3/4 legit MVP canidates in the East. This is my list of who I would consider MVP candidates (who could actually win not just be in the conversation) in the NBA next season, which has 6 of the 10 in the West.Smd,..... bro you forgot Spida.
Honestly, Hayward shouldn’t even be in that convo.
List the legit mvp candidates (Hayward is a lolz in that category) and it’s so heavily skewed to the western conference.
It’s crazy.

The teams th Jazz only play 3 times are the Spurs, Warriors, Pelicans and Clippers. That’s pretty good. Only 1 game in San Antonio and the Bay.
Here are Locke's comments on the schedule https://www.lockedonjazz.net/jazz/emptying-the-noggin-on-utah-jazz-18-19-schedule/
The Jazz schedule is pretty fair, they play 10 games when they are rested and the opponent is not, they play 10 games the opponent is rested and they are not and they play 62 games when teams are at equal rest.
