So regardless of how this postseason ends, this season has been pretty damn special. What are your favorite storylines from this year?

Tough as Nails - Injuries. 50+ wins. Burly.

Ascension of Rudy - obv

Hayward an Allstar - Looks like the first of many.

Joe Johnson - Jesus.

and my fav...


Johnson to Hood for 3 is a thing now. Cute.

What am I missing?

When every sports writer, tv pundit, blogger, and forum poster have to walk back talking **** on the Jazz's pace of play.

"Oh, you have to play the Jazz for 48 minutes with no break. That's hard."
 
This really has been a frickin blast to watch this year. This is easy top 3 favorite squad/year with the 97/98 teams

"using your expiring assets to add depth to the squad rocks the boat too violently and may destroy our delicately balanced beamed cakk bakk" - me
 
Also I think for the first time this year the Jazz surpassed the Spurs as the team with the most International players.



Heard it on NBA TV last week IIRC.
 
Although not on the court, the Millers ensuring the Jazz stay here and the announcement of the jersey patch for charity helped cap off an awesome season.
 
I think we saw it last night. The Jazz have figured out ways to win games on the road without bringing their "A" game.

This is something we haven't seen since Stockton and Malone. Even the DWill/Boozer/Okur 50 win teams almost never grinded out wins on the road.
 
So many awesome things with this team this year.
Fighting through injuries
Rudy straight up destroying other teams and his fire and leadership growing by the minute
Hayward's all star nod and overall improvement
Ingles being a legit NBA starter
Joe Johnson killing the clippers
Legacy Trust
Other fans and organizations starting to fawn over our front office and roster, noting how similar we are to the spurs
Winning tough games when we dont play well. We never use to close out games

So many great things
Getting to the second round and potentially causing the Clippers to blow up their team would probably be #1 though

I disagree. I was actually thinking about that last night. The Jazz operate on such a razor's edge, no room for any mistakes. They MUST play an A game or they will lose. Heck, we know Klay or Steph can be off and that team will win. Kyrie and Love can play D games and that team will win. The Jazz? They have some really good players but they must all be on their A game or they will lose.

Did you not watch game 5? Who had an A game outside of Hayward?
