We are making the playoffs.


Mod pls sticky this thread.
 
Too Early. While I love the way the team is playing it's still preseason. And this team is going to have some really rough stretches.
.
Anything over 30 wins would be an amazing feat for this team.
 
Like i said....the west is too stacked.

We will win a good amount of games at home but the road will be quite a crap fest.
 
I picked the jazz to win 37 games a few months ago.... I'm bumping that up to 41 games.

No playoffs though.

I will be super excited if we are in the playoff hunt come March though
 
I say 38 wins with a few heartbreakers. No post season unless a few teams implode.

Keep officiating in mind and look at how Exum was treated tonight. That's gonna cost us a few games.
 
I believe we can crack the 40 win threshold if the things go well. I know that won't be enough for the eight seed because of the deep conference like people have mentioned. But the possibility of the Jazz getting 44-45 wins is not that far fetched to me and it could be enough if we can also have some luck.

I see it's very difficult and unlikely to happen but I think it's not impossible at all. With Quin Snyder and the spirit the team showing right now, it's definitely doable in my opinion.
 
I voted for cheese. I'm hoping for a nice smoked aged gouda. My second choice would be a buttery young ementaler. Mmmmmmm.


No way in a bloody mooned blue hell on a pancake we are making the playoffs.

Could very well have a situation (I think it's happened twice before) where all 8 playoff teams in the WC win at least 50 games. Jazz could very well make a run like Phoenix did last year and just miss. Snyder even has a shot at COY with expectations coming in from the media and odds makers of 24 wins. Jazz finish at .500 or better and he'll get some votes.

I predicted 52 wins. Y'all are only beginning to approach my level.

Ya, but you were just screwing around. I legit picked 44

It's gonna happen.

Like gameface said though, Exum is gonna be killing us if he keeps playing like that. Probably gonna have to use a different back up points sometimes.
 
If this team has an outside shot (say within 4 games) of a playoff spot in March, I'll be ecstatic.
 
I predict 35 wins. Because the Jazz picked a raw future star in Exum, the player development is still the first priority not the Ws. Though the Jazz may exceed expectations if

[x] Gobear continues to improve
[x] Kids win some close games
[x] Everyone fights, shows resilience and confidence
[x] P/R defense improves

Then 43 wins is possible.
