12-3 would be awesome.

56-26 record.

40-10 since 16-16 start.

FJS, you may wanna change the thread name to predict the final 15 games instead of the last 15 games. It might confuse some people.

Anyways I'd say that we probably go 12-3 with losses @ New Orleans, @ San Antonio, and vs. LA Lakers.

Wow I cant believe the season is already coming close to the end. I think the Jazz will finish 10-5 to close out. I cant really say who we lose to because we always play to the competition. That last stretch of games is absolutely brutal.

54-28 still should win us the division.

I would LOVE to see the Jazz go 11-4 to finish out the season, and end up with 55 wins....thats what I figured they would end up with this year anyways! Even 10-5 would be a great finish.

I think we will lose one more at home and at least 2 on the road...the fourth loss is still up in the air for me.

As far as the Division goes, Im not too worried.

that would be a micacle if the jazz turn it up on the road and are able to finish with the same road record as last season.

There's not a doubt in my mind that we'll hit 55 this year. We have a rather easy schedule the rest of the season apart from playing San Antonio twice.

i predict that if we win tonight, then we go on a 12 game win streak; i know that's being really optimistic, but it's definitely possible being that 8 of the next 9 are at home, the only road game coming in Minnesotta, where I think the Jazz will be looking for a little redemption.

I'm gonna go ahead and say that we'll kill LA on Thursday if they don't have Pau in. If they DO have Pau, I still think we'll win, but just not by as much.

I am gonna go on a limb on this one just like I did in January...

I think the toughest one to choose was Dallas cause they are such a good team specially on their home, on an equally as strong home as ours, it is tough. But I think AK and the gang have something to prove back to them. Our last loss to the Hornets was a fluke, much more of a sting right at the beginning that we could almost recover considering that they are a good team. Paul and the Hornets still don't know what to do against us.

Rockets though, I expect them to extend the streak to 23... Pau Gasol and Ray Allen are injured.

10 games at home and 5 on the road, not a bad way to close the season when you have a Western conference race of this magnitude. The rest of march is going to be easy, given that the Lakers game shouldn't be too tough at home and without Gasol. Hell I think we might pass the Lakers given they'll play @ Houston without Gasol (and obviously no Bynum) tomorrow, followed by road games at Dallas and then us.

I got them 11-4. And thats with me going against my gut feeling of a Jazz loss tonight in New Jersey.

I don't know De2nd, I think we can make it happen, it will be the biggest statement stretch the NO/DAL stretch. If they can win it, I think they have a good shot at the championship.

The Jazz aren't winning in New Orleans, Dallas, or San Antonio. Especially that late in the season. It's sad that their schedule to close the season is like that because with a damn good March which I expect from them, I believe they'll lose all the steam in April. Hopefully they can pick themselves up and have a good seed come playoff time.

with deron having pauls number, i think a win at NO is very likely...SA and dallas games will be 50/50, depending on which jazz team shows up

Duiz · Post #18 » by **Duiz** » Sat Mar 15, 2008 11:38 pm

I think the New Orleans one should be one in the bag... But Jazz have to win vs the second best homecourt in the NBA in Dallas, or against their nemesis in the AT&T center. If they win one of those two, or even both of them, they will be championship contender callibrated. I don't know, this time I don't expect them to lose all the steam like last year.

Jazz should win in NO. Had we not had a chernobyl-like meltdown in the 1st quarter last time, we wouldve beaten them easily. We also have beaten them by double digits the other times we played.
