Clippers are locked into the 4th seed. Decent chance DeAndre Jordan and/or Chris Paul rest against us.
Fingers crossed

I noticed that no Western Conference team grant discounts to the Jazz this season, they know the Jazz are not a an easy team to face in the playoffs.
***ing Popovich played Leonard 38 minutes yesterday.

Warriors talked about resting Curry against us but changed their mind game time. Pops told the players they were going to rest against the Jazz since it was a meaningless road game and changed his mind to start the game and then played the starters lots of minutes. I think teams don't like the Jazz and or don't want to see them in the playoffs. I am guessing we aren't going to see the Clips rest against us. Frankly I really want to make the playoffs but I want the team to earn it and I want teams to play their best against us.

This.

Yes, but it is unfair if the same teams that didn't rest their best players against us, they decide to rest them against Dallas, Houston or Portland in these last crucial games. It distorts the race for the playoffs.

We already deserve the playoffs after all the injuries and the moral victories.

Pretty sure Pop never said that.
 
Yeah, if I was a western conference playoff team, I would want no part of playing first round playoff games in Utah. The Jazz consistently play hella hard and have an excellent home environment.
 
DeAndre Jordan is out tonight against the lakers, they didnt say why. Maybe he got a run in his nylons and couldnt find his ring.
 
Pretty sure Pop never said that.

Here is what Parker said about Pop:
"He said he wanted to play. So if we played Utah, I don't see any reason now we're not going to play Golden State. Before, we were going to rest everybody like against Utah and Golden State. But I guess he changed his mind. Everybody's playing now."
