The importance of winning the 3rd seed for this Jazz team

[b_line]

Minus the 1 v 8 matchup. Warriors breeze in 4. Beyond that every team is capable and touch.

Yeah, I should have said any of our possible first round opponents. Ain't no way we are getting to the 1 seed

The difference of CP3 + Blake vs. our 1 + 4 >> the difference between Marc and Mike vs. George and Rudy

This is too simplified. There are infinite factors. Another key one is the Jazz best offensive player. I think he matches up far better against LAC. They are a lot smaller on the perimeter and wing. Plus, Hayward can still do a good job on defense against the more skilled group from Clippers. While he can easily shut out the Grizz wings they can d him up pretty well, and Ennis, Allen, etc. aren't threats to score anyway.

How is that the best case scenario?

*Realistic best case scenario
With avoiding the Grizzlies, Clippers, Rockets in the first round. Of course the Spurs or Warriors being knocked out in the first round is the dream

Hayward is more likely to stay if we make it to the WCF. We're much more promising as a FA destination for all athletes. Come on bruh.

I'm not concerned about Hayward leaving tbh.

"nasty"? A lame NBA buzzword.

good enough for Pop, therefore good enough for JFC.

do u prefer Hood vs Harden? Or Kawhi vs Hayward? Or CP3 vs George? Or Blake vs DFav/Boris/Lyles?

Only thing that worries me about Memphis/SA is that they so much more XP when it comes to the style we play. We can just dick ram our style against the Clips, Rockets, and Thunder.

FOOOOOLIOS!!! We are basically a LOCK for the playoffs yo! I mean we haven't clinched it or anything, but we look AMAZEBALLS! We are on pace for a 53 win season!!!

LoGrad is licking log.

We have an All Star and a legit shafted All Star! We have an elite Defensive player of the year. We are fighting for the 3rd seed just behind the Warriors and the Spurs. We are still SUPER YOUNG. We have done this with a trillion injuries. And we are only JUST STARTING TO GEL! We have a mastermind jedi GM. We have a Coach who sips on vampire blood martinis and deserves coach of the year. We have finally started clicking offensively. WE ARE THE JUGGERNAUT, BOOMBI**HES!

GLOAT FOLKS. GLOAT AWAY. Bath in Koolaid tonight. The mighty Churro has spoken. The chocolate cream filling is oozing out for everyone to see.

CHOOOOOO CHOOOOOO! NBA (and whoever gets us in the playoffs)... WE'RE BACK!!! FEAR SWAT LAKE CITY come playoff time!!!

Alec Burks defending JJ Redick off the ball for 4-7 games would be a frustrating disaster.

You would rather have Trey Lyles/Boris Diaw defending Zach Randolf?

Then put someone else on him, it's not like the ****ing Clippers trot out 3 perimeter players worth guarding in any lineups.

I would rather play the rockets/Spurs without HCA than the Grizzlies with home court folliwed by golden state. Houston doesn't scare me, Memphis does a little, and obviously playing the Spurs beats playing the Warriors in round 2.
