Lakers games are going to be tricky, but we caught a huge break with the Golden State situation. Those are wins we weren't projected to get. Put us back into the 90% playoff odds at fivethirtyeight.
Denver is playing Phili and the Raptors monday and Tuesday. They have to win at least one of them to stay in it. If they lost both we could be feeling pretty good. Can't trust the east to do that though. Let's just hope the east wins one (likewise, if Denver somehow won both--that would be scary.)
Got to beat Boston. Not an easy game by any means, but with Kyrie out we have to take advantage.
Looking at the schedule, the Jazz really are in the drivers seat. Denver has a brutal schedule. Denver and the Clippers play each other. And then we play the Clippers. Would be sweet to put the final bullet in the Vampire Clippers.
Next sunday's game against Minnesota is going to be huge, I feel like.
If we win 5 of the final 8, I think we're in for sure. Feel like we could go 7-1 and get a higher seed. Don't know, but that Spurs game has me feeling pretty confident in this team. Even though we lost that game, I think this team just has something special. Something a Jazz team hasn't had in a long time. We have a lot of holes and weaknesses, we are being led by a Rookie and so naturally are going to be inconsistent, but this team has a ton of heart, and just has some really good players who aren't afraid of the moment. They also have a chip on their shoulder. We are playing with something to prove.
Most fun season in years. And such a bright future no matter what happens. Next year is going to be lit.
