15-2 in next seventeen games

[Zerol]

...I just checked the schedule myself....and we've got some tough back to backs on the road....so no way we will end up 15-2 during that stretch! 10-5 would be much more realistic and probable....and acceptable as well!

Mad math skills.

LOL at this thread and the math wizards of jazzfanz! This is a good follow-up to the "sineage" thread

Hey now, you're the one who a) gave me the pet name and b) a) have an avatar of one of the greatest perverts of all time.

Make that wine, honey.

I've hired you to help me start a war. It's an prestigious line of work, with a long and glorious tradition.

You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line"! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha...

I don't get it. Are you saying he's not a pervert? I watch Criminal Minds and stuff. I know better.

i should have been less literal in my hyperbole

i only meant that not all wins are created equal and while the end result of that road trip was impressive, they way the jazz got there, while exciting, wasn't

to go 15-2 at any point in any season is remarkable. that's the pace of the 1995-96 chicago bulls. the jazz are not a tier 1 team, and systemic problems like losing on the road a bunch don't disappear suddenly after one (technically) successful road trip. hopefully expectations will settle after they get clobbered by a team like the wolves in minnesota or the sixers in philadelphia because this team is not on the same level as the spurs, mavs, or lakers, and to expect them to perform as if they are is a recipe for anger and sadness

i mean i'd put oklahoma city ahead of utah too. this is a seed 4-6 team folks, just like last year and the year before that and the year before that and the year before that

Sad but true. That, and the Jazz have a history of underperforming against teams they "should" beat.

Also, does not a weak schedule mean a much tougher schedule later?

I'm talking minimum eight-peat.

This time it mostly means that we have had a very tough schedule so far. According to Hollinger`s stats, only Chicago of the top teams have had a tougher schedule than we have. As for your other point, we have been beating the weaker teams this year, with the exception of GS away and at home to Phoenix. Keeping up this would elevate us into the top tier, but 15-2 is obviously a very long shot indeed - but not impossible.
