It probably will be the same story just a different day. Dirk will go for at least 35.

I was wrong and you were wrong. But you were more right than I was.

after houston's loss, i have them projected at 35 wins now (L at dal, W at noh, W vs. gsw, L at mia, W vs. noh) so now we get in without a perfect finish.... but just in case houston surprises anybody, the jazz should go ahead and win all 4.

Just for clarification.... Utah can win a regular season home game?, or a first round playoff series against okc or san antonio?
I dont think anybody doubts that the jazz can win at home in regular season. Do they? Of course utah CAN win the game tonight.

they don't have to win a playoff series for this season to be a success.

DEN: 34-27, 2H/3R remaining, 4 against .500+ teams, combined OWP .572 (nerd projection: 37 wins)
DAL: 34-28, 2H/2R remaining, 3 against .500+ teams, combined OWP .560 (37)
PHX: 32-29, 4H/1R remaining, 5 against .500+ teams, combined OWP .628 (33)
HOU: 32-29, 2H/3R remaining, 2 against .500+ teams, combined OWP .451 (35)
UTA: 32-30, 3H/1R remaining, 2 against .500+ teams, combined OWP .504 (35)
if it plays out like that: 6) dallas, 7) denver, 8) utah, 9) houston, 10) phoenix.

Not that I do not like any projection that has the Jazz making the playoffs but why do you think the Suns will only win 1 out of next 5 games, despite having 4 home games?
Phoenix has OKC, LAC (back-to-back), DEN, @utah, and SA (back-to-back). I originally had them closing 1-4 as well, but I think they are playing better lately. They've only lost one home game in the last month (to the Spurs), plus they have recent road wins in Sac, Utah, Minn and Hou. I assume they will win 2 or 3 at this point.

Of their four remaining home games, the only one that I will confidently say that Phoenix is most likely to win is against Denver and maybe OKC. I think their only chance against San Antonio is if the Spurs are resting players. I think that they lose to the Clippers too.
