How many tough games do we have the rest of the way?

We still have the Cavs, Spurs x2, Clippers (again), Warriors + a few tough road games @ Chicago and Indiana. I think we finish right at 50 or 51 wins.

a lot

Though the Spurs/Warriors games have big rest potential (they could be resting players hopefully).

Doubt it...both are tied for the best record in the league. They'll be fighting tooth and nail till the end.

Def support this thread.

Durant and aldridge are both out, they have been resting players like crazy lately. I would not use "tooth and nail" to describe what they are doing. Did you watch the snoozefest when they played each other on Saturday? They tried to rest the entire western conference.

8 down 7 to go. We now need to go 7-7 in the final 14 games to hit 50 wins.

We're road warriors and only have to go .500 from here on out to hit 50.

It's gonna happen

9 down 6 to go. We now need to go 6-4 in the final 10 games to hit 50 wins.

It has been a minute since I've updated this thread. This was a much needed win. With our upcoming schedule it is going to be tough to get to 50.

Cool fact: If the Warriors are still up 2 games on the Spurs when they play the Jazz on April 10, the Jazz can lose that game and make the final game against the Spurs meaningless for the Spurs. Hence, the Spurs might rest guys. If the Warriors can get up 3 games on the Spurs when they play the Jazz, then the Warriors would have nothing to play for either -- unless to get KD some reps.

Or just beat them every time.

If the Jazz win one or two games in the playoffs, they will reach 50 wins this season.

Would this be considered blatant "goal post moving?"

More a way of saying they won't win 50 regular season games.

The OP didn't specify regular season wins only, so post season wins should count too...just trying to keep this thread alive guys. We still have a chance.

Hey, at least we vet a higher pick if we drop a few spots.

If I were a betting man, I'd say the Jazz will not hit that mark...I hope they prove me wrong.

It is within reach, but a little bit difficult. I don't know if they will do it or not, but this team is still a huge improvement over last year. If they had been healthy, they would be approaching 55 wins right now, and maybe be in contention for the 3 seed.

11 down 4 to go. We now need to go 4-3 in the final 7 games to hit 50 wins.
