Too much can change, and change quickly in the next 19 days. I reserve the right to edit my predicton right up to the deadline.
I agree with the Oncorhynchus nerka from Hooverville, there will be many close games while the team searches for a way to close games (they struggled closing post D-will and its importance cannot be understated in NBA games)
On Dec 6th I was at 20 wins.
Dec 8th - I got sucked in on media day, KOC "We want to Win", Ty Corbin, "We're going to make the defense easier so guys don't have to think, but leave the offense pretty much the same." - + 5 wins, 25 and 41.
Dec. 10th - AJ ripped, Memo healthy, Watson 2-yr deal +6 wins, 31 & 35
Dec. 12th - Jazz to force basline, players say Burks is amazing best rookie, Locke predicts he starts. +5 wins, 36 & 30.
Dec. 15th- Realization that Jazz still have unproven sg and no real sf, last year's big problem. -4 wins, 32 & 34.
Dec. 17th- Watched scrimage. Kanter is raw, front court not as loaded as I thought. Hayward looks good, but gets lost for periods, I keep waiting for him to take over same for Harris. Who is going to put the team on his back and say "We are NOT going to Lose"? Nice guys finish last. -4 wins 28 & 38.
Dec. 20th – Jazz lose by 20 to PTB. Starters looked tired, not a good sign for game 1 of a compressed season. Harris 5 TO to 2 ast. Memo & AJ combine for 5 rebounds. Howard 0-4 in 5 minutes. Atleast Ty was smart enough to sit them and play the B-team. -7 wins for the starters, + 3 wins for Coach playing the B-team. 24 & 42.
Dec.22nd - Jazz beat Ptb last night in a strange game where Bell and Harris looked like they retired three years ago and Dr. CJ/Mr. Hide made another appearance. Gordon and Favors response to starting was underwhelming. Today Jazz traded Memo for a 2nd round pick in 2015--I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Millers sold the team, but that won't impact the record, will it? No SG, no starter level pg or sf, front court depth gone, uncertain direction from front office. -4 wins. 20 & 46.
