Disappointing facts: Jazz vs. Playoff Teams

[akirac73]

Jazz have an amazing record vs. non-playoff teams: 21-3, and pretty bad record
vs. playoff teams: 9-16

I found this to be disappointing:

Jazz record vs. Playoff Teams when:
Trailing at the end of the 1st Quarter: 0-8
Trailing at Halftime: 1-13
Trailing at the end of the 3rd Quarter: 0-12

Final Score point differential vs. Playoff teams when:
Trailing at the end of the 1st Quarter: -11.4 (Jazz 90.3, Opp 101.6)
Trailing at Halftime: -9.2 (Jazz 90.6, Opp 99.9)
Trailing at the end of the 3rd Quarter: -11.5 (Jazz 89.3, Opp 100.8)

Conclusion:
When playoff teams jump on us early, you can stick a fork in the Jazz...game over.

This sucks...

Wow, that really does suck. I didn't realize it was that bad. I'd imagine that all the teams probably know these stats as well, and as you said, play us hard in the first half and it's over.
This doesn't bode well for going into the playoffs, hopefully the second half of the season, the Jazz can change this into a more favorable winning percentage against playoff teams.

I'm not worried. Nothing has changed for my projections for the jazz season since the season began.

4th seed. First round win. Lose in the 2nd round in tough series (probably 4-2)

It's a little disconcerting but the playoffs are a different animal. No one will want us in the playoffs.

Tough to know how we'll do in the playoffs. 4 of our 5 starters have basically no playoff experience.

It's a little concerning. But don't you expect to have a worse record against playoff teams that crappy teams. At least this team now beats crappy teams.

Tough to know who will be available even. Will the injury bug rear its fugly head again?

A fourth or fifth seed and a first round win result in a second round sweep of our boys... by the Warriors.

I disagree. I think we win a game or two against the warriors.

What's our record against playoffs teams when we have all of our starters play?

I highly doubt it (2 games that is. We might win 1). I also think getting thru the first round will be tough.

This is a good question.

I don't remember the year but I think it was against the Lakers(DWill era) where the home games were really close, and the road games were bad blowout losses. I would expect something similar barring injuries.

 

[Engorged On Unborn Gore]

I don't think it's that disappointing. What was the expectation? 16-9?

.500 isn't unreasonable, imo.

On the flipside they're playing these better teams much more closely than they have in the past.

1-2. Win vs Cleveland, two losses against Memphis. Average scoring margin -2.7 (Jazz 91.3, Opp 94.0)

We have only had three games with hill, hayward, hood, favors and gobert together? Damn, im impressed that we have as many wins as we do and have a good chance for homecourt advantage in the playoffs. Injuries have been insane for us this season.

Edit: I hope you didn't include last nights memphis game in your post. Favors was out iirc.

Just double checked. We only lost to memphis 1 time with our starters all healthy.

first time we lost to memphis hill and hood were out i think and last night favors was out. (we beat them one time this year)

 

[Siro]

Are we playing better now than when we were injured? We've had an easy stretch, in which we managed to squeeze out tough wins against bad teams. I'm hoping we gel as the season progresses, but right now, we're looking like a first round exit.
