14th Tank Platoon

Congrats to the Kings for their impressive home win over the Wizards. The Jazz are now 2 games up on the Kings in the tank race and should be able to hold them off. Jazz just need to worry about the Lakers and Celtics.

Celtics beat Miami. Yes now the Jazz are tied for forth with the Lakers. Memphis better hold on because I still haven't give up hope (slim) they can go on a run and catch GS. I know GS schedule is easy but there is still a small hope. I hope New Orleans holds on vs Toronto. The more space the better.

Lakers are actually 6th right now, then lakers and us. Unless you are just looking at wins, which really are the only thing that matters, then yeah.

Let's go Detroit, Lakers!
 
Jazz losing and Celtics winning make their a stellar night for the tank. Now if we can get a Laker win...
 
Biggest game of the season on Saturday...we absolutely must lose to Orlando if we want any shot at the 3rd worst record in the league. On Friday...the core 5 need to make a trip out to Park City and eat at the same Pizza joint Michael Jordan went to.

GS is going to be in the playoffs. Phoenix has already dropped too far. Its now a difference of if the Jazz get the 21-25 pick. They could pass Miami and Portland, who have both been kinda slumping and end 5th in the West with only Indiana in the East with a better record, but they could also end 8th and have Indiana and Miami with better record. I've given up the GS watch. Even with injuries, they have too many easy games left to completely tank.

We would have a "punchers chance" of finishing 3rd if we lose that game. Orlando plays Indiana and Chicago the last two games of the season. Both those teams may be resting starters for the playoffs depending on the seeding
 
Vucevic has been ejected for two technical fouls against the Suns...is there a chance he will be disqualified against us Saturday? Orlando's tank has no end...it's shame!
 
Great run of results so far, but you just know that we`re gonna beat the Lakers in the penultimate game to move from 4th to 6th in the lottery.
 
Looking at the schedule, it looks very likely that we will finish either 4th or 5th. Boston are playing well and have 2 games left against Philly. Sacramento are two games ahead and are playing Milwaukee and the Lakers. Detroit are playing both Philly and Milwaukee and are not losing out. I can`t see us winning less than two games, and we will also likely beat the Lakers and probably one more home game. It basically comes down to the Lakers game; lose that and we finish 4th. Win it and we`re fifth, or maybe even 6th if one of the other teams really hits rock bottom.

I've been surprised at how far we've come this year. I wouldn't totally rule out the Lakers loss, tbh.
 
So Orlando has this tank thing down, I'm certain that Vaugn is on board with the tank and is making deliberate moves to lose. It's sad that the jazz have a coach that is trying (or is he ????)and the results are about the same.

Also, I'm imaging a 76ers v Magic game as a spoof film, like Scary movie or Airplane where the dueling teams try to out do each other to lose, all while pretending to play to win but convincing no one.

Jacque Vaughn trips Jameer Nelson as he dribbles past. Varnando scores 2 baskets so Hinckle spills water on the floor in front of him causing a fall. Violet Palmer throws up a jump ball, but Sims and Vucivic just stand there looking at each other
