What's new

Despite the mass panic, we are in fact...

We are going to be so much better now that Burks is out of the lineup.

Winning basketball here we come!
 
I have said for weeks that January and February lighten up considerably. Jazz have one of the easiest schedules to finish the season. We got this.
 
If we were to pull out a win tomorrow, we would be 1.5 games out of 6th. I'm not holding y breath, but that would be huge. Hope Favs can get well soon.

Basketball reference has Gobert coming back mid Jan, not sure of their source, but they don't mess around with info.

Well considering they didn't rule him out last night till almost game time it sounds like he will be back shortly.

Damn that is an awesome 19 game stretch.

Thanks for getting my hopes back up. Get healthy jazz.

Btw, how is Bradys passing yardage lead looking?

Not good. Brees has come out of nowhere. I have about a 78 yard lead over Rivers and 85 over Brees I think. Right down to the wire.

****ing brees???

I didn't see that one coming
 
Back to the Jazz, looking at the slate of 19 games I posted, if we have Gobert back for that stretch and Hood plays solidly (not great, solidly), is there a reason to think we can't go 14-5 over that stretch? 15-4 even?

And yet we're still this close to the 6th seed. That's my point. Listen, I won't lie, the next five are tough. But if we can go 2-3 over that span, we then have a set of games that are very, very winnable. No elite team. They go Lakers, Blazers, Kings, Lakers, Hornets, Knicks, Nets, Wiz, Pistons, Hornets, Wolves, Bulls, Nuggets, Bucks, Suns, Mavs, Pels, Celtics, Blazers. That's a 19 game stretch. If we can get Favors and Gobert back for that most of or even that whole stretch which starts January 10th and can gut out a nice 13-6 or better record, we'll be on our way.

To further clarify this those 19 games go:

@ Lakers 1/10
@ Blazers 1/13
v. Kings 1/14
v. Lakers 1/16
@ Hornets 1/18
@ Knicks 1/20
@ Nets 1/22
@ Wiz 1/23
v. Pistons 1/25
v. Hornets 1/27
v. Wolves 1/29
v. Bulls 2/1
v. Nuggets 2/3
v. Bucks 2/5
@ Suns 2/6
@ Mavs 2/9
@ Pelicans 2/10
v. Celtics 2/19
@ Portland 2/21

The bolded games worry me the most. Let's say we lose them all. That is 15-4. Pretty damn good.

Ya, @Blazers ain't that scary. @Portland however, that's another story.
