Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

[framer]

Jazz are kicking December's *** at this point. And you guys were so scared. . .

 

[str8line]

Play of the season so far IMO was Donovan taking it in against Cousins and kneeing him in the nuts.

Where do I buy the ticket?

Jazz future looking like:

 

[JimLes]

According to Denver media, Jokić will miss 5-8 games. Millsap is already out until well past the AS break.

Davis is out tonight against the Blazers, but I can't find any info on further prognosis. They're describing it either as a groin or pelvis injury, which sounds like something that would keep him out for more than just one day.

I'm not sure either of these teams can even tread water while Jokić and Davis are out.

Steiffel Tower and Spida. How did you find such a perfect pic?

The West is shredded right now. Damn. If the jazz exceed expectations through December -- and avoid further injury themselves -- then things will be looking pretty good. I think a 6th seed is back on the table.

Clippers down 20 at the the half to Mavs. Dirk hasn't missed a shot. 4/4 from the arc. Hasn't taken a 2-pointer.

I think the tank is on for that team. I also can't see the Grizzlies pulling out of their hole.

Pinterest, of course.

I think the Grizzlies and the Clippers are more or less out of it. I've already written off Suns, Kings and Mavs and Lakers don't look like much.
Stll leaves Thunder + all the teams currently in a playoff spot. Pelicans and Nuggets are injury-ridden right now, but both came up with wins tonight. Looks like 4th through 9th seed may end up a battle between the teams that are there now.

 

[JazzFever]

Barring more injuries or a stupid trade, the Jazz are going to be in the playoffs. Just too much dysfunction/injuries amongst the other teams. The only question is what our ceiling may be.

Clippers @ Wolves
Spurs @ Thunder
Rockets @ Lakers

Go road teams again.

Not sure Lakers' a threat to us at this point...

Yeah, I guess not, but I don't think we're catching the Rockets either. And the Lakers are kinda young, so I'm thinking they could start to gel later on. And they have no reason to tank. But probably not the most important game.

 

[Jack Strop]

Rockets and Warriors out of reach. And somehow Spurs are at a very high level without Kwahi. But 4th seed is within reach. Of course, so is 9th. i'm buying a fully-refundable ticket for now.

 

[DasJazz]

I think we'll end up at about the 4-5 spot and play Minny in the first round.

We’d bump them. Then bump Houston, as we always do.

 

[MVP]

We are riding 5 game winning streak. Next Wizards without Wall - we should make it 6!

Updating OP with standings. Leaving the day to day games to @hgb

Speaking of which...
Wolves @ Grizzlies (I guess Memphis could come back, but I don't see it happening)
Warriors @ Pelicans
Nuggets @ Mavs (would love a home win here)
Wizards @ Jazz (very much winnable, need to keep the momentum going now)
