Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

Lol.. Why won't they take care of business against the Nuggets?

They might. This race has just shown not to have confidence in any eastern conference teams who don't have much to play for beating one of the ten Western conference teams who are playing at a playoff-level intensity every game.
 
Jazz have a one game lead on the Nuggets and Denver still has three more away games against playoff teams - Philly, Toronto and OKC. If they drop all 3 of those games while the Jazz pull out wins in their next three (@GSW, and home against Boston and Memphis) and they’re all but guaranteed to get in. This is going to be a critical stretch. Get it done now, and they might be able to help get some guys rest before the playoffs start. Fail, and they’re stuck fighting the rest of the way.
 
Philly better keep dominating the Northwest lol. Denver needs to start losing some of these road games...
 
Regarding the Warriors, Curry may not be ready by the start of the first round. Being re-evaluated in 3 weeks doesn't clear him for contact. KD has torn cartilage in his ribs. It's not a small injury. Klay has a broken thumb on his shooting hand and is out another week or two at least.

The Ws are going to be vulnerable in round 1.
 
Timberwolves lost and the Pels are getting blasted. Bodes well for the Jazz. Just have to win vs. a depleted Golden State and have the Nuggets lose to Philly. . . and the Jazz are in a pretty good spot going into the final 8 games.
