I Don't Flipping Care What Happens Against the Warriors

Give the guy a break, he is from Newz Ealand or something. He probably has to rub a sheep really fast to turn on the lights and get his Apple II to connect to AOL. No way he knows where Sacramento is.
 
Nah. Jazz gonna shock the world. Accept it now. Be one of those people who said "I called it before it began."

Jazz in 7.

To be fair most of them are not correct or real. Like Sacramento, that cant be a real place, or at least anywhere anyone would want to live. JK I lived there for a year it made my top 10 best places I have lived. It was right at the bottom of the like 10 general places I have lived.

I agree with this. By the time Malone and Stockton made their finals run it was starting to feel like "son of a bitch it's about ****ing time we got there". This team is much more Cinderella-ish, which makes for a nicer more exciting vibe.

We are more like the late 80s/ early 90s Jazz.

Agreed. After we closed out this series my dad and I were reminiscing about one of our favorite times as Jazz fans, the 7 game series with the Lakers in the late 80's. We were supposed to get swept but then we pushed it to 7 games and damn near pulled out the last one too. It was so exciting. We went to all of the home games in that playoff series, some of my first in-person basketball at that level. Damn that was fun. This year it might be even more fun. I can always say I was at the first game against the Clips in the Staples Center when we lost Rudy and shocked LA. Awesome!

Jazz in 6 in the greatest upset in NBA history. Steal game a game on the road, just like Bulls stole a game in 1997 after Jazz went stale sitting for 10 days. We dominate inside. Rudy annihilates Draymond. Favors plays like last year's Favors. Durant limited mobility from knee. Dante and Jingles shut down the perimeter. Low turnover rates and Warriors can't run. Gordon is Gordon.

We play loose, nothing to lose.

Warriors get tight, missing expectations and in a panic.

That was a fun, untethered thought experiment.

This team is destined for greatness. In order to get there, we have to first face adversity. Rudy has gone down twice, Hayward was sidelined with food poisoning. Now, we're facing the "best team" in the league that the media are hyping as unbeatable.

The whole world is against the Jazz and writing us off. The Jazz have other plans in mind and it started in LA and will continue on against the Warriors. The NBA is about to realize we're a formidable squad not to be taken lightly.
 
What I love most about this team is the fact that many of the players packed for Oakland!
 
The thing I love is that we have several players who I have no doubt believe we can win this series. I chose to believe with them. That late season win was a big thing, regardless of them not having Clay. It won't be easy and the odds are against them, but it's not an impossible feat like some people think. I think this will be a 6 or 7 game series, with Utah having a chance to shock the world.

GO JAZZ!!!
 
YEAH, WE'RE GOING TO SHOCK THE WORLD BY PLAYING 4 GAMES AND NOT LOSING OUT IN 3 AND A HALF LIKE RICK FOX SAID. CAPS FTW
 
As long as we play tough I'm happy. But it's not going to be a cakewalk for Golden State (unless the refs screw us X2). The Clippers are a solid team and we beat them. CP3 is one of the best point guards in the league. And despite Curry, Green and Thompson one must also realize they have crap centers which will especially help Favors when he's playing center. We played the Warriors pretty well during the past two seasons - perhaps better than we play the Clippers.
 
I'm going to the game with my son... anyone ever gone super early and gotten autographs from the guys? We are sitting near visitors tunnel.

No doubt OP, we are playing with house money at this point. Icing on the cake you might say.

The rebuild has been a resounding success and I loved every step of the process. (Even rooting for losses during the tank was really fun imo)

Go Jazz!

It would be great if the players felt like they were playing with house money as well. They would play loose, and our shooters would greatly benefit by that after playing so tight against the Clips.

Great series. Spring of 1988. My first real look at the Jazz since I was in Detroit. The Mailman was huge and took the NBA by storm in that one. G.S. series could be similar.
