Jazz 2017/18 Playoff Bus! All Aboard!

Colton is to nice to put up much of a fight. I'm not. I've always been a fighter. I just tone down my mouth and personality to dull as hell levels for JazzFanz.

Colton has a point tho trains don't go CHOO CHOO. Maybe you need to loosen the muzzle to help the blood flow...

No sir! People need to know the Playoff Bus is coming through. They can hear this puppy for miles and miles.
 
Jazz crushed them!!!! Yeah yeah no Curry. No Jazz player played over 28 minutes. Durant played 29 and Thompson played. Jazz are 3-1 against them this season.

Are y'all ready for a killer night!!!!!

Jazz @ Blazers
Grizzlies @ Thunder
Nuggets @ Wolves
Spurs @ Pelicans

Only bolded two games as they are the key ones to keep an eye on.

If the Jazz win they are the 3rd seed. If they lose they land anywhere from 4-6 depending on the other outcomes. Now, if the Thunder beat Memphis than it will be Jazz/OKC in round 1 regardless of whether the Jazz win or lose. They are the team I want to face the least. If they lose than one of the other 5 listed above becomes our opponent and I'd rather face who ever it is.

So, a Jazz win and Thunder loss. That is the key IMO.

Jazz can't play the Blazers after winning last night so if the Thunder lose the Jazz are guaranteed to play any of the Nuggets, Wolves, Spurs or Pelicans WITH homecourt no matter the outcome of our game.

Go Grizzlies!!!
 
I want the 3rd seed!!!!!!!!

Jazz > Thunder in 6
Jazz > Warriors in 5
Jazz > Rockets in 7
Jazz > Sixers in 6

Mitchell and Gobert are each given 5 wives. They get to choose from any woman living in Utah. A new set of statues appears in front of Vivint this off season. Gobert blocking a shot, Ingles trash talking someone, Mitchell dunking, a bottle of mousse for Rubio and a mountain of coke with a dead hand sticking out for Snyder.

Don't make this weird.
 
the grizz stand no chance. They might as well not even show up, thats how much they don't care about this game.
I hope they play Marc Gasol 30+ minutes and he craps all over Steven Adams. Add a great night from Tyreke Evans and Marshon Brooks? I want to believe.
 
Unless the impossible happens, Memphis beating OKC, Portland is going to have homecourt vs the winner of NOP vs SAS regardless of whether Portland wins tonight.

Portland is playing for the second round opponent and avoiding the Houston side of the bracket. Utah is playing for home court in the first round, a much more proximate reward.

That said, being on GS's side of the bracket this year as the 3 seed also means possibly avoiding them altogether in the 2nd round because they're without Curry in the first round. I can absolutely see a healthy Minnesota team taking them out. Minnesota was the clear #3 WC team prior to Butler's injury. Anything can happen regarding Houston's health in the first two rounds which is why you want to avoid them for as long as possible.

Tonight I'm also rooting for the Spurs and Minnesota.
 
We're really great this season after years we're really great.
I don't like OKC matchup at all. this is the worst opponent for us in first round.
Let's wait and see what this night brings.
 
There's an aspect to the Grizz/Thunder game that could generate a weird outcome. Westbrook is undoubtedly going to try to snatch 16 rebounds for the triple-double average.

Memphis could attack his off-ball defense as he will surely be waiting for rebounds and also take advantage of when he crashes in for an offensive rebound by leaking out.

This actually happened a lot last year when Westbrook was trying to get his precious 3D average for the season.

He would routinely try to chase down offensive rebounds leaving the back court exposed in transition.
 
Alright Marshon Brooks, I haven't asked you for a lot before now, but if you could score 80 tonight that would just be great.

I'm loving Brooks resurgence.

It's hard to judge a guy by what he does in April but I'm happy the dude played his way back into the league
