Well, with our earth and solar system passing through the central plane of the Milky Way at the end of its 13,000-year half cycle, the charged photon field of the galactic plane causes a reaction with our sun that in turn places gravitational forces upon the earth, leading to increased vulcanism and seismic activity in addition to potentially disruptive solar flares. Strangely, this is occurring at the same time that the earth completes its process of precession (the wobbling of the earth around it's vertical axis by 23 degrees). Should this cause a physical pole shift to occur, it would displace a significant volume of ocean water, about a half mile high, due to the swelling of the ocean around the equator (caused by the centripetal force of the earth's rotation). This would devastate most coastlines, where 80% of our civilization concentrates. So is it the end? Well, portions of the humanity would certainly survive, but we can think of it as the end of a galactic cycle.

This is what some people say...

I think the jazz are ok.
This is a strange season.

Tonight, the Clips got the snot beaten out of them by Denver, in LA

It's just the way this season is, with so many games played in a short time.
 
I predicted the Jazz would finish the season at 35 - 31, 4 games over .500. Most people predicted they'd do quite a bit worse than that. Kanter is looking like he's going to be a player. Burks is showing real potential also. Hayward is up and down, but coming along also with more responsibility this year. It's Favors who's still trying to find an identity on this team, but at least his defense is maturing. He seemed a click late getting to some rebounds tonight, as did everyone else.

The Toronto game was the beginning of the end. That was our statement game.

No big deal to me though, as this team is pretty much who I thought they were. Actually, they're better than I thought, but still not as good as people are hoping. I'm just grateful that we're competetive for the most part. If we were getting blown out consistently, then I'd be seriously concerned.

I didn't believe we were a playoff team before the season, and I see no reason to change my mind. 2 lotto picks looking pretty good after tonight.;)

Jazzfanz, the place where Matt can vent and say things he can't say on tv.

Well now, who has been watching a little too much History Channel? On the other hand the good news would be that the Heat, Lakers, Clips, Knicks, Blazers, Nets etc. are toast. And Topeka, Kansas et. al. may have a team soon.

Catchall, great job describing this scenario though. Did you have to copy that from another source or spill it right out from the top of your head? Maybe we should move further inland though, just in case.
 
Corbin has got to get better at reacting to the opposing coaches' personnel adjustments, and do a better job keeping the players' heads where they belong.

Utah didn't get buried under a lack of effort, we got burned when we subbed our back court and they didn't. Tinsley should have stayed in as long as their starters, or just taken out for a short time. Utah also consistently was drawn into a running style which removed our advantages.

Further, Burks cannot run an offense he doesn't understand. You have to initiate the plays with Hayward or CJ, somebody who knows what they're doing.

This.
I feel our good record to this point is because of the home heavy schedule. We'll it all even out with these road games. They are basically the same team as last year.

Ah Milankovitch... You brought a tear to this Geographer's eye.
 
Said it early when everyone was soooo pumped.... say it now. Feb and March will bring us back to earth.

I would have preferred the opposite.. slow start to the season and strong finish to hopefully give the players hope. I just hope that the next few months we show promise and the players believe because a losing culture can spread quickly.
 
I think when all is said and done the Jazz will be fighting for 7 and 8th seed with 3-4 other teams.

Burks is the troublesome one among the youngins. Hayward is fine, just having a little trouble with getting shots to fall. In all other ways he looks great: D, passing, penetration, fast breaks, blocks, rb, etc. Burks is out of control and does not seem to have a vision of the team game.
