Quick Popovich reaction: #Spurs didn't play physical enough, he's not happy, and everyone plays the last 2 games.. no rest


Damn it.
 
Clippers closed the season on a tear and we didn't. I'm hoping we can steal one in LA and protect the house.
 
The Jazz seem to go in spurts a lot this season as far as win a few, lose a few, win one, lose one, etc. So, my hope is that if the standings remain how they are now and we start out on the road it will be right on time for the Jazz to right the ship and steal a game while also holding serve at home. They've had similar streaks all year so I won't be surprised if we enter the playoffs on a losing streak only to shock the Clipps in game 1.
 
I'm strongly considering booking my airfare now. Highly doubt we get the 4 seed now.

I guess I'll wait til tomorrow night though.
 
Yeah, you're nuts. Clippers are a bad matchup for us, but they are no where close to 3rd best postseason team. They are several spots back, but the very idea that they are better than the spurs is crazy talk.

LAC beat a FULL SAS squad in San Antonio. They can beat SAS in a 7-game series too. SAS have 1 and half stars, LAC have three. Depth, coaching, good team-play, synergy stuff matter more in the regular season. Postseason is another stage.

You people watch clowns on NBA TV and check the standings and have you own ideas about stuff. So LAC being better than SAS postseason, such a usual talk among professional bettors, is odd to you.
 
Jazz stopped the chase. Resting Hood and Favors, Neto out and Hayward and Hill are questionable for the game today.

5th seed it is.
 
Agreed. I'd be making churro threads for him rn.

At any rate, hyping draftees is fun and I loved my Burkefest. NAOS stays ho-hum when it comes to talking about Stanley Johnson tho. He's sure..er..having a season. As is the very balanced Trey Lyles who "you just have to see in person" in order to understand his prospects.

I'll buy Stanley Johnson stock right now.

And, yeah, Lyles will figure it out.


(psssst, not everything you say is worth replying to.)
 
So if the Jazz win and the Clippers lose is it back to hype or will we still be conceding 4th to the Clips?
 
Time to bring on the miracle! LAC loses big and Jazz pull off a stunner. 4th seed back in it's rightful place in a few hours!!!
