Now were here, might as well win right 4-1 Jazz. I don't think our big lineup has even played againt the real Spurs yet. I am hoping that the Jazz play that lineup a lot. Might as well see if it's a viable lineup going forward.










My real prediction is 4-1 spurs.
 
agreed with above.

The playoffs are not a time for sober predictions. Pure koolaid hysteria... 4-2 Jazz
 
The only way the Jazz have a chance in this series is if they can defend the 3 and stop Parker's penetrating in the paint. Oh they have to run their offense and shoot really well and someone has to step up their normal game (Burks, Favors or Hayward). I hope that the Millsap/Favors/AJ/Hayward/Harris lineup gets some play. I think the series goes 5 or 6 games with the Spurs winning unless the Jazz play out of their minds.
 
the thing that worries me the most isn't the talent differential... it's Corbin's predictability. Popovich is already the best when he's trying to out-maneuver another master. I think Corbin needs to try some unorthodox stuff. I'd start by inserting Favors into the starting lineup and going with the big lineup.
 
I think the Jazz come of age in this series and find a way to push it 7 games before losing. San Antonio is just too smart. With that being said, I think the experience is going to be HUGE for this young team going forward. If you look at last night, you saw Hayward, Burks, and Favors playing major roles in what basically amounted to an elimination game. IMO it was amazing to see those 3 young guys respond the way they did and it should make all Jazz fans extremely excited about what the future holds. Hell, that's not even mentioning the performances of Sap and Jefferson who are at that age in which they should be entering the prime of their careers.

This team is on the path towards become scary good.

I agree with this. The TNT guys were talking about "it is time to see if Utah rolls over..." or some crap like that. Well there is your answer TNT and NBA. This team will fight and they are damn hungry. I think that big strides will be made in the "growing up" of this team. Plus the off chance of that GSW pick being thrown in to increase the talent for the future.

Promising present to go along with that bright future.
 
Spurs sweep. Have you not seen the Jazz play the Spurs recently? Hell they almost beat the Jazz in SLC without their 3 best players.
