Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

I love how Jason Terry has averaged 29 minutes in the last three games and he's on the way there again tonight. Are the Bucks that desperate? He's got to be the last member of the 1999-2001 headband contingent unless old man Carter and Z-Bo are secretly keeping that flame alive in Sacramento (like anyone would know).

One of the many TNT classics over the years was Barkley making fun of LeBron for moving back the angle of the headband as his hairline moved back.
 
Come on. I think that kind of comment devalues Gobert. DM is not quite all-star level right now. You might argue he's borderline.

Gobert can be fairly argued to be a superstar.
Gobert is the best defensive player in the league and the key reason the Jazz are winning games now. Whether he gets the recognition he deserves, he absolutely is a superstar.

Donovan Mitchell isn’t at an all star level yet, but he’s certainly a star. He’s an outlier to the max degree. He’s leading a top 5 team as the #1 option as a rookie. Crunch time comes, and he’s the guy with the ball in his hands. More often than not, he delivers. The list of guys who’ve done what he has this season is short and filled with Hall of Fame caliber players. Of course he’s a star.

And once he does it in the playoffs, the accolades will come rolling in. Legacies are built in the playoffs. Rudy and Donovan have done what they needed to get to the postseason. Hopefully they can continue to play at their top shelf level regardless of which team(s) they go up against.
 
The bucks are really bad and don't deserve to be in the playoffs.
I want them to suck *** until Giannis forces his way out. The more star players that find their way to blockbuster trades or free agency, the more likely the Jazz are to lure one to team up with Gobert and Mitchell.
