Schedule discussion

Figured this might be worth its own thread, stickied for a day or two.

October 18th? Wow. It looks like they're finally getting serious about giving players proper rest. Makes sense because of all the uproar over key players sitting in nationally televised games due to tiring schedules, as well as the trend towards more and more injuries every season.

Does anyone know when individual game tickets go on sale? Keep getting linked to "season membership" tickets only.

I'd just randomly like to mention for no reason that when Luis Figo left Barcelona to sign with their bitter rivals Real Madrid, Barca fans threw a pig's head at him next time Real played in Barcelona.

Woot woot!! Wonder what the over under on national games will be. I say 3.

Apparently it's 7.


edit: or 10, if you include NBATV

 

[colton]

We play Golden State 4 times instead of 3 times. So probably one extra loss there.

10-national TV games for the Jazz. 34 for boston. It's the number Lindsey couldn't overcome.

Jazz have fewer National TV Games than New Orleans, Sacramento, Phoenix, the woeful Knicks, Denver and Potland. Even Dallas which is in full out tank mode has more national games than the Jazz.

Pre Christmas road trip looks pretty brutal. 6 games in 12 nights, including Boston, Cleveland, Houston, and OK City.

As someone else mentioned, a lot of home games at start. Specifically, 10 of first 14 are at home.

 

[colton]

I count 14 back-to-backs. Not sure if that's low or high.

It's worse than that.

December 9-February 7, a two month stretch. 19 road games. 8 home games, two of which are single game home stands.

Jazz are always going to get boned worse on the schedule because they refuse to schedule home Sunday games.

At least it was cooked.

 

[framer]

Beginning and end of the schedule seem kind of soft in comparison. I think that will be beneficial for the Jazz as they work in the new players and as they prepare for the playoffs.

 

[JimLes]

At least it was cooked.

A real man would have picked it up, taken a bite, then flipped the crowd off.

 

[dipship31]

I'm hoping the Boston game will be early in the season, but I bet we end up going to Boston within the first couple months of the season and Boston comes back in here in Feb or March.

Well damn, I didn't want to be right

 

[Jazz Traveler]

All 4 games vs. San Antonio are the 2nd game on a back to back.

Dante Exum, Dante Exum and Rudy Gober are going to kick some serious ***, that's all I know.
