Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

blake griffin better do something good for once and **** NO up.

Pistons are desperate to make the playoffs, so I think they will play like hell for that one.
 
As I look at the remaining schedules I see OKC with 49 wins the Jazz with 44 wins, Portland and the Clips with 43, Denver with 42 and NOP with 41. This is the best possible outcome. 6th seed avoids the warriors till the WCF. Get ready to shock the world!
 
@Stoked can I get a breakdown of tonight's bus related games please?
 
Yeah, Utah can't afford to be dropping ANY games at all. The teams ahead of us just aren't losing. A loss to the spurs tonight could have been a major pot hole. These other teams refusing to lose is getting really frustrating. 10 straight wins and still can't gain any ground. $@%^#$@!

It’ll happen. Plus, the Jazz schedule eases up while others get tougher. If they can hold court (like they should) against Phoenix, every win like that will help them advance in the standings. I’m not too torn up about the Pelicans beating the Nets, but I’m hella stoked about the Jazz beating teams like the Warriors, Raptors and Spurs. Don’t think the Clippers or the Pelicans can do that tbh. They’ll drop games at some point. The Jazz were down 5 games and have only barely started to climb out of that hole.
 
Still going to be really tough to make the playoffs. Obviously we are not going to win every game, but we cannot regress at all. There can't be any mistakes--we used them all up in December and January. The Clippers are still really good. Pelicans have Davis and an intense desperation. Denver is really good.

Jazz did not play below 500 games great earlier the season. I think we are like 10-7 or something. That has to have changed. Every game is big and we have to thrash the below 500 teams with fury.

Start Wednesday.
 
Jazz with a thrilling come back win to make it a 10 game win streak!!!!!! MVP chants broke out for Mitchell, Favors and Ingles feasted. Gobert also checked his ego and told Snyder to leave Favors in because it was working. Love this damn team!!!

Unfortunately the Pelicans and Clippers won but the Jazz have substantially narrowed the gap. We are now only 2 games out of 6th and 3 out of 5th. But that is OK, the Jazz are coming and seeds 3-9 can feel it.

Tonight's games to watch:

Cavs @ Thunder
Rockets @ Wolves (a wolves loss is nice for Utah but I hate the Rockets)
Spurs @ Nuggets (we are closer to the Nuggets)

Jazz remaining Feb schedule:

2/14 - v Suns - W
2/23 - v Blazers - W
2/24 - v Mavs - W
02/26 - v Rockets - W

I so badly want to be on a 13 game win streak when the Rockets come to town. Rested from an extended home stand... Obliterate them and listen to Clutch Fans melt down. Trash *** fans
 
@Ben_Dowsett
Updating remaining strength of schedule for teams in the race for the bottom 4 spots in the West playoff race (based on current standings - 1 = hardest, 30 = easiest):
OKC: 9th
POR: 7th
DEN: 5th
NOP: 14th
LAC: 8th
UTA: 26th

Jazz have 12 games left against the tankers: 2 Suns, 2 Mavs, 2 Kings, Magic, 2 Grizz, Hawks, 2 Lakers

Winning those 12 puts the Jazz right at .500.
 
Jazz are favors in all of their remaining games except 2 or 3.

GO BUS GO!!!

CHOO CHOOO!!!!
 
Suns game is the ultimate trap game. They knocked us off earlier this year, too, no? We worked them by 32 last time we played, and it was DM's 40pt game before he entered his mini slump.

That earlier game is what woke Mitchell up. In the 4th quarter he changed and hasn't looked back. We should wish that game played out exactly as it did lol. That one is sacred.
