Jazz finish out season 0-2.
Goodbye 50 wins...hopefully we see you next season.

50 is an arbitrary number, i just want playoff wins.

Playoffs wins are arbitrary. I just want to win the lottery.

It is but it also is a significant step in the right direction. I feel the 50 plays more importance than most want to admit.

I don't know if it's important, but it does feel a lot better.

It's only important if the Clippers only have 49 wins.

You don't know if winning in the playoffs is important? How do you profess a team win the championship by NOT winning games in the playoffs. Please advise.

This a riddle? Hmmm. You invite all the other teams to a pre-playoffs party, and then you blow up the building? That'd work.

Rest and health is more vital to us and our playoff push

This is awesome. No Free agent is gonna want to go to San Antonio if Pop makes them play in games rather than rest.

is 50 really that much different than 48? neither are winning chips.

50 vs 48 is psychologically huge.

"I am part of a 48 win team."

"I am part of a 50 win team."

50 wins carries so much more weight. Sounds stupid but it matters.

It sounds pretty similar to me though. People out there like to round their NBA stats into tens. 40 wins.. 50 wins.. double double.. triple double. It's all arbitrary. 20 pts 10 Rebs and 9 assists is still great, even though it didn't hit that arbitrary mark. 48 wins is pretty much just as great as 50.. it just doesn't "sound" as good. It's a 2% difference in outcome which is negligible at best.

Joe Jesus is getting in playoff form. I say he goes off for 30 against San Antonio and marches us to victory.

We play well when rested(obviously) I think that is more important that home court. I'd like to see Rudy get some time off as well. 50 wins only sounds good on paper, a 1st round exit feels like a death sentence for me.
