I'm still questioning it. The only good team we've beaten in the last 12 games is the Clippers. That was literally the only game that impressed me.
In the upcoming games against Indiana, Dallas, Houston, and Denver, if we go 3 for 4 in those games then I would say we are shaping up to be contenders. Otherwise the wins are simply due to the super easy schedule.
The Jazz do such a good job spacing the floor with their shooters, I wish we had a big, athletic wing who could drive hard to the rim to take advantage of it. So far, Mitchell and Clarkson are breaking the paint with regularity. I just wish we had someone bigger who can do it.
The Jazz have had one of the top offenses in the league during this past stretch. The question is how many good defensive teams we've played. Sacramento's defense tonight was non-existent.

I'm not completely sold either, but we've gone 17-3 over our last twenty games. Only Milwaukee can boast a similar record, and they hadn't exactly had the most difficult schedule either.
Just started watching the replay game. Great first four minutes! Thanks to AT&T for at least letting me watch this.

I know this may come as a shock to you... but even though Sacramento is in California, it isn’t in the same league as the two teams in Los Angeles. Ingram and favors tore us a new one the other night. Lebron/Davis and Claw/George are much better than Ingram and Favors. Blowing out the queens means nothing. They’re a franchise that hasn’t made it to the playoffs since I was in high school. Hell, did we even have wireless internet when the queens were last in the playoffs? Wasn’t Napster still working and MySpace still cool?

The question isn’t whether we can score. The question is whether we can beat a top team in a slug it out playoff series with Rudy as our only big man and a bunch of scrubs filling in at the backup 4 and 5 positions. I think New Orleans exploited weaknesses that we all saw coming back in July. It’s delusional to not think that the top teams all loaded with talented big men won’t exploit. I really don’t see us getting past the Lakers and probably the clippers without upgrading our frontline. Gobert shouldn’t be expected to stop Lebron, davis, Kuzma, and Dwight.

Wow what a run. This team is so fun to watch. I think they can run with any team in the league. I love the chemistry. Do not change a thing. If there’s an injury then next man up. This team has as good of a chance at a championship as presently constructed than anything else possible. We’re not trading for top five player in the league and I think that would be the only way to improve what we’ve got. Go JAZZ.
You obviously didn't read my following post on the subject. Or even the content of the one you quoted.
Which doesn't surprise me based off our interactions in the past.
Jazz with an absurd 130 ORtg again...
This is what I'm talking about when I say we are legit contenders because of the level of basketball we are playing rn and the composition of the team.
Anybody who is saying "oh we're just beating up on the Queens" or saying that we're just playing like this because of weak schedule, is missing the bigger picture.
Lots of teams win games against weak opponents, but they don't do it by playing at THIS high of a level. They don't do it by having the #1 rated offense over a 15 game stretch.
It's the level of play that is impressive. Not the wins. This level of play is capable of beating anyone.

I quoted your entire post when responding. What more do you want? You said the jazz were contenders. I said that they weren’t as long as Gobert is our only big. Then You whined.
Stop complaining and write better if you feel like your point was misunderstood.
