Since your from Wyoming I know basketball is such a foreign sport and not rodeo but are you serious?
OKC still has Russ who is by far better then anyone the Jazz have. They have solid role players also. Now Russ gets to hoist up more shots but to answer your question, No Utah is not better then OKC at this time.. This is some homerism if you even think. Utah wasn't even a playoff team and you want to say thwey are better? lol Russ is a top 10 player and now with Durant gone Stats wise I expect him to be a top 5 typle player and make a run for MVP since he will be carrying the load and not sharing touches anymore. I was just waiting for
Jazz fans to say they are better. I saw this coming.lol

Okc missed the playoffs two years ago with no durant. They had russ. And ibaka.
Amazing how bad you are at this stuff.

The thing that annoys me about this board software is that even when you put someone on ignore, you still have to see their mouth breathing posts because others quote them.

You don't get jack for winning the division anymore and The Jazz are clearly a step behind GSW, SAS, LAC and a healthy Grizzlies team.

A lot would have to go right for Utah and some stuff would have to go wrong for other teams for The Jazz to finish top 4.
 
OKC was cursed when they traded Harden. Its been a slow death from there. Sure they are one of the Wests best but with three all stars they should
have been counting the rings.

Now with Durant and Ibaka gone they are beatable. Still a good team, but we must taste the blood in the water. The Jazz have to man up and pass teams like Dallas, Memphis, and OKC.

GSW are already out of our league. This is about seasoning our team in the playoffs, and moving up the ranks. Then in two/three years maybe Durant is gone, maybe the Warriors arent quite as good as they are today. Great news for us moving forward.

OKC lost both Ibaka and KD, sorry I don't think they are improved. Memphis have two stars coming off serious injuries and Parsons knee could go at any time. Randolph is old. Will the be tough to be sure but I don't fear Memphis. I think we can beat them in a series.

The two teams are SA and GS and now that gap is wider.
 
We have a chance. The Thunder will still be good though. Westbrook is a star and will carry them. Oladipo, Adams, Kanter, Roberson, Sabonis, they are still a deep group. It's a battle between the us and them for first and second, Blazers third, Nuggets and Wolves a close fourth and fifth.

I don't doubt you but I also don't understand why OKC acquiring the draft rights to Sabonis doesn't push our rights to the pick up to 2017.

Never mind, finally figured out that there was a stipulation that the pick couldn't be conveyed until 2 years after PHI received the pick owed to them.

Russ also missed a lot of time that year
They have improved roster since then
Ibaka never been a guy that's going push teams over the edge. He is a very good role player.

Just wait I bet OKC if they keep Russ are better then your pathetic Jazz this year

Oh, I didn't know about the 2 yr stipulation. Damn, call it the Kanter curse. We're getting 2nds as RW will leave and OKC will rebuild.
 
Jazz are still fighting to make the playoffs. They can make the playoffs but some of yu are inbreeds and just assume Jazz now have a plyoff spot.. Teams like the Rockets who made it last year are fighting for that spot and they have a superstar, Utah doesn't
Minny is clearly a team who have 2 players better then anyone the Jazz have. Spurs just gained Gasol so they are a playoff team, OKC has a better coach then the Jazz and a superstar the Jazz do not.
Clippers are the clippers
Portland is going be better. I said it last year, was laughed at and proven tright at the end of the year.
Dallas is still going compete for a playoff berth.GSW,Spurs,Clippers,OKC, Minny, Blazers....that leaves 2 spots open and the Jazz are one of the two teams fighting for it but guess what other teams improve too. Denver is going fight for it, Houston, Dallas, Memphis who has a better starting core then the Jazz...
I am going laugh at all of you when the Jazz dotn make the playoffs agaion.. Adding George Hill and Joe Johnson is scaring off the rest of the nba I tell you

Why don't you just leave and find another board? You're nothing but a troll.

Although, you never know. Maybe they decide to avoid another KD situation & deal Westbrook for enough to keep them in the running for the 6-8 seed instead of losing him for nothing next off-season.

I didn't say anything about OKC other than the fact that finishing in front of them to win the division in and of itself is meaningless. Hell, it's possible to win a division these days and not even make the playoffs.

As far as seedings are concerned, as of today Jazz have:

An outside shot at finishing 4th
A fair shot at finishing 5th
A good shot at finishing 6th
