Official Record Prediction Thread

We will end up in the 6th seed with the Lakers, OK, Dallas, SA and 1 other team ahead of us. We will finish the season with 38 wins. I see us going up against a tired Dallas team.
 
Ok, official predection: 36 w 30 loss.

It'll take some time for everyone to click, but with the athletes the Jazz have and the former all stars/future all stars the Jazz have, they figure it out mid season and start clicking. The question is: will this be good enough for the playoffs?

I think 36-30 gets us in. Like I said earlier in the thread there are really only 4 teams guaranteed to make the playoffs (barring major injury) - Dallas, Lakers, Thunder and the Grizzlies. The West is wide open after that.

I like where your head is at.
 
I'm going to go with 34-32. Just missing the Playoffs this year. I think the team need this year to really gel and get the youngsters up to speed. Next year I do feel we could be a lot better than around .500
 
I love the Josh Howard signing. Anyone want to change their predictions?

well, that means no AK so I will have only one prediction left now. 27-39. Howard is irrelevant to our record - he is not even close to a player he was few years ago. Jazz needed passing and defense and instead got mediocre jump shooting.

Not trying to flame, but you do know that Josh Howard is considered to be one of the better defending small forwards in the NBA, right? The USA team invited him along the Shane Battier and Bruce Bowen to fit the "defensive specialists" roles back in 08. Quite prestigious, if I do say so myself.

One small thing - it was in 2006 ( Early in 2006, Team USA director Jerry Colangelo invited Howard to serve as one of Team USA's possible defensive specialists (the other two being Shane Battier of the Memphis Grizzlies and Bruce Bowen of the San Antonio Spurs) in the 2008 Summer Olympics. And yes it is quite prestiqious but obviously Howard did not think so and rejected that offer never showing up at any of the team US camps. 5 years ago he was good defensive player, question is how much he has left after ACL injury and getting 5 year older? I doubt he is better defender then even Hayward now.
