Official Round 1 Predictions: Jazz-V-Thunder

[Jazz Traveler]

Jazz in 7

Did anybody pick OKC?

The thing that worries me is that PG, I'm assuming is going to be guarding Mitchell the entire series which will severely hurt our chances at Mitchell bailing us out when the offense isn't going anywhere. Quin is going to have to get seriously creative.

I think Mitchell is smart enough to adjust his game after Game 1 to counter whatever PG could possibly try to take away from him.

I hope they wear the gold.

Would be weird if he wore those shoes with the gold unis though.

What worries me most is Russ turning into a Pull-up God. Feels like he always makes his jumper against us. If he isn't hot, I trust Gobet to keep Russ in check around the rim.

PG is an incredible defender and now that he won't even be the #1 option on offense he can focus even more energy in that department. He has the exact combination of quickness, length and timing to neutralize Mitchell. With that being said, I love that Mitch gets to face this now and face this early, can only learn from whatever happens.

If George is on Mitchell like everyone is saying then should Ingles abuse his defender?

Can he deal with fighting through the best screens in the nba for a 7 game series though?

I'm not taking anything away from PG, he's a very good player. But I still think that Mitchell can figure out how to overcome adversity after at least the 1st game and figure out a way to lead this Jazz team like he has the whole year.

I think Someone Else[tm] needs to step up. PG13 is going to give Donovan fits, and this is the playoffs, so he's not going to get a lot of whistles. Ingles and Ricky will be super important.

Jazz in 4.

OK, after thinking about this a bit more I've decided to revise my prediction. Jazz in 5.
