Utah Jazz 2018-19 Championship Bus CHOO CHOO

I didn't like the Charles Barkley dribble dribble while inching his butt into the post game either. It was effective, but just bad basketball to watch.
 
I think the Rockets catch Denver and take the 2 spot, so wherever the Jazz end up - it’s either GS or Houston in the second round. I think we can take Houston to 7 - if everyone’s healthy...

I'm just not that scared of Houston. The Jazz would have a fair chance against them. Would much rather play Portland. But since we'll end up in 4/5, it's a second round exit either way.
 
This is starting to shape up as a series against Portland, then GS

Jazz need to hit the 2nd round. But the WCFs would be magnificent for this team.

If only we can avoid GSW and the Rockets until then. Likely a pipe dream at this point.
 
Great night with the Jazz winning and the Clippers and Spurs losing, if only Portland would have lost it would've been perfect.
 
I may be wrong but right now I see no chance of getting the 3rd seed. We are almost guaranteed to finish 4th or 5th vs Portland or 5th vs Denver.
Barring a huge surprise, in order to get home-court advantage we need to win our 4 games and Denver to beat Portland twice. Keep reading to see the reasons why:

These next 2 games:
Portland @ Denver
Denver @ Portland

Possible outcomes
They split both games: 99% chance we finish 5th vs Portland.
Portland wins both: 99% chance we finish 5th. Good chance it would be vs the Nuggets.
Denver wins both: our chance at home-court advantage. We need to win all 4 and since we hold the tiebreaker over the Blazers, we would get 4th.
 
We need the blazers to lose 1 game cause if they win out and the rockets win out. We get the rockets
