What's new

9-7 is better than 10-6

Fine, I'll start.

This year 10 road games.
Last year 5 road games.

Okay, next poster.

it doesnt matter if you win by an inch or a mile, home or away, winnings winning.

If we stay over two games over .500 through January 12, we will be a top 4 team.
 
If we won every home game and 40% of our away games we would have had a 12-4 record last year at this point.
 
OP is right. With the road heavy schedule early I see this team getting some serious late season momentum going. If we were 9-7 with home/road games flipped I wouldn't expect this team to make the playoffs.

That's not saying I'm excited about the team right now. I want to see some sense of direction and commitment out of Ty. At this point I'm not going to hold my breath. He doesn't seem to have any courage as a head coach, nor the slightest degree of coaching brilliance.
 
I think we have a pretty decent record thus far. i think we have a real test coming to our own ESA this week with the clips giving us a visit. if we beat them at home i will be way excited! i think this will be a real home test for us. i am also hoping we have OKC number this year.
 
I see your point Spazz. I'm no longer in panic mode. In fact, you've convinced me we may play our way to a 3 or 4 seed!!!!
 
I'm glad a lot of players who probably won't be on the team next year are helping us become marginally better. Yay Phew.

I'll get excited when we string together a few quality wins and/or when trade(s) happen.

Whoa... whoa... whoa. Let's not go overboard there Mr. Excited.

Reign it in just a little. This is not UK we are talking about.

Oh, like the trade of Harris for Marvin?

How about the trade of a trade exception for Mo?

Not good enough? How about we actually sign a free agent that is decent in Foye?

Still not good enough? How about KOC changes positions and they take Lindsey from the Spurs organization to be our new GM?

And... it's still not good enough.

How about we win 5 of the last 6 games for a string of wins? Na.....

I'm getting the feeling nothing would be.
 
Mo Williams has been injured, Josh Howard is gone, most the team is sucking.....cough Millsap cough...


Jazz are starting to play better, would love to see a win over OKC. That would really push this team to the next level to beat a contendor on the road.
 
Today the Jazz are 2nd in the Northwest Division, and essentially 6th in the West. Unbeaten at home and have atleast won some of the games they were supposed to on the road.

They did this while trying to install a new offense, assimilate 3 new players, playing many of the games with Tinsley as the pg and all the while Coach Corbin is juggling a big man rotation that the whole leauge knows can't co-exist.

I'm happy.
