Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

I witnessed a miracle through the color configuration on my computer screen. It was as if Larry H. was speaking from the dust, giving his final blessings on our championship run.

At least that’s how I like to view it.
Okay. Still don't have the slightest clue what you're talking about though.
 
If you say so.

Every once and a while the face of Mary appears on a tree stump. I suppose you don’t believe in that, either.
 
Here we go! The final stretch of 24 games for the Jazz. Andy Larsen tweeted that the Jazz are favored to go 18-6 the rest of the way. That would leave the Jazz at 48-34. Only 3 games off last season.

Last night the Clippers lost and the Thunder won so mixed results. But the Thunder and Wolves are the only 2 teams from 3-9 that I think finish ahead of Utah. Utah will finish 5th! and face either the Thunder or Wolves in the first IMO.

Tonight's Games:

Jazz v Blazers
Wolves @ Rockets
Heat
@ Pelicans
Spurs @ Nuggets
Clippers @ Suns

Tonight could be a very big night for the Jazz. If the bolded teams win the Jazz will pass the Clippers for 9th. They will be .5 games out of 8th and only 1 game off 7th and 6th. Also a win tonight would clinch the tiebreaker against the Blazers come seeding time. Those tie breakers could be important.

We already own the tiebreaker against the Spurs and 1 more win against the Pelicans and Clippers and we own those tie breakers as well. OKC owns the tiebreaker over us and the Nuggets and Wolves only need 1 more win against the Jazz to own it as well.

OP updated with standings

Why would we want the Blazers and Wolves to win? especially the Blazers.

So in other words, anytime you see two colors that could potentially be associated with the Jazz, regardless of the order and regardless of whether their are some other non-Jazz colors mixed in you see it as a positive omen. Very well. I like!
 
ESPN projects this:

http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/page/BPI-Playoff-Odds/espn-nba-basketball-power-index-playoff-odds

1. Warriors 63-19
2. Rockets 62-20
3. Wolves 48-34
4. Spurs 48-34
5. Thunder 47-35
6. Jazz 44-38
7. Nuggets 44-38
8. Blazers 44-38

I'll take a 1st round match up with the Wolves and a second round match up with the winner of Rockets/Nuggets. Yes please!!

wolves vs jazz would be FANTASTIC for the 1st round. Imagine rubio coming in and burning them. I'd laugh my *** off.
