Vegas line is 27.5 wins and at least 45 I think will be needed for playoffs.
Go figure how unlikely playoffs are this year.

No offense but I will not judge my opinion on how good the Jazz will be based on Vegas betting lines.
 
If we only had a bench and a coach with brain...

From some of the tweets I am starting to wonder if Corbin might surprise. The C5 are being underrated. possibly Corbin as well. Yes the bench sucks.

I think the hunger, talent and aggresiveness of the C5 will surprise people.

bookies make money for the reason I find their predictions are usually fairly accurate. And I had Jazz at 25-29 wins so they are right in the middle where I think we will end up.

Fair enough. I don't have faith in vegas bookies though.
 
I believe we will surpass the 30 wins threshold, maybe even the 35.
 
Playoffs, ladies and germs. If we believe it, we achieve it!!! Prayers!!
 
I think we could if Burke can pick up his speed and start running and making the correct play while playing fast. So far, the accounts are that he is still trotting to half court and over dribbling/eating time, thus not taking advantage of all the really fast runners in the starting 5/ altitude advantage. There are also reports that he isn't keeping his head up, and by consequence isn't aware of wide open teammates.

Listen to Locke's recap of practices so far in this morning's tip off.

The other factor would be rotation. I think we have enough talent to snag the 8th spot if there are no unjuries, everyone gels, and player's minutes are proportioned to what they can contribute, but that is a lot of things to ask for (and could be said of almost every team).
 
I can see us passing Sacramento, Phoenix, Wolves and Lakers... could you guys help me out here cause im struggling to name a fifth team. Maybe Pelicans? But they also bring a good team together this off-season.

I think we just have to lower our expectations for this season and enjoy the tanking.. oops.. young guys playing. But, as much as the next guy i want this team to overachieve and surprise all the odds-makers and those nerds on ESPN.
 
I think its possible we surprise and make the playoffs but its not likely. Which kind of sucks because we will be right in no man's land again.
 
Why? If this team made the playoffs that means that our core has blown up. All that with a horrendous bench. A kick butt free agency class and 31 million coming off the books.

It is certainly a win-win scenario.

lol to be honest I just wanted to say that. no meaning.

I hope we either make the playoffs, even as an outside 8 seed, or completely blow up and end up 3rd worst (or worse) in the league. Please no more #14 picks. Ugh.
