I doubt that the Jazz win tonight. The Rockets are already playing like its the playoffs. Don't think the Jazz have the same urgency.
11/12. That's where they'll end up at.
BKN not doing too well early against ORL. ****!!!

So wrapping this up.
Utah splits the ping pong balls with the 9th seed in the EC and drafts at 11 or 12. If Indiana loses, Brooklyn is in the POs and Indiana is in the lotto with us.
Phx is 13th.
OKC misses the playoffs by 1 game and drafts 14th. Oops. That delays our pick from them in the Kanter trade, but whatever.
Miami wins 37 games and picks 10th. Trevor Booker's explosion and Utah's 100% Cotton game cost the Jazz 1 or 2 spots, but it's not a huge deal probably.
I actually like that scenario better. No one knows whether Durant or Westbrook will still be around by then. Plus wouldn't it be cool to have a deep playoff run & still get a useful lottery pick in 2018? (similar to how we got Hayward from the Knicks pick?)
