C'mon Jazz! WE ARE STILL ON THIS!

*I just realized the picture looks terrible. Darn it Microsoft Paint.

If you look at the picture, we are currently 9th on the Western Conference. THIS SOUNDS TERRIBLE! If the playoffs were to be played today, WE WOULD BE OUT!

Wow, give it to the drama, which for sake of redudancy is very dramatizing.

However, when we clear our minds of bashful thoughts, in the air we notice that.

Houston who trails us has 20 games won, and Phoenix who is at the top has 26 games won. We stand right at 21.

Now in the perspective of games behind, it doesn't get any more difficult. Jazz are just 5.5 games behind the leader, and 8 teams are crunched in between. This is so still in the picture, that I think the woes as of late are making us very negative to what it is still a very open field. I believe we will go into an 8 or 10 winning streak, and that should get us back to the top 4.

Come on guys! :clap:

WE ARE STILL ON THIS!

I think 1st, 2nd or 3rd aren't options

we are only behind 3 games to 4th seed and a portland team who is bound to flop in coming weeks. not exactly doomed.

I agree. Portland is heading out on an extended road trip this week. They have been about as good on the road as we have, so things could even out with them soon.

I really think that this team is yet to play their best basketball. They have a good chance to still win the Division.

It's taken a while, but this team seems to be finding their chemistry!

We seem to be healthy again. hopefully the jazz can take the confidence they've built at home with them on the road. If they can, I see them competing at a very high level.

We are too damn streaky. We can't afford another run like the disaster of a few weeks ago. Hopefully that was a one-time thing that we got out of our system and have some confidence back.

We are still on what? That doesnt sound too good.

I'll tell ya, the key in this one is Memo. He has been an animal the last two games and he hasn't exactly been matched up against scrubs (Amare and Dwight). He said that he is 100 percent again. He plays well and everything will flow again. I see the Jazz getting back up in the top 4 or 5. They're too dang good to sit in 9th.

Wild Wild West... with more than 55% we're still out of play-offs.

My prediction is 6th or 7th seed, 2nd in the northwest behind Denver.

I think we will surge to win the northwest division, and finish 4th place therefore. I should remind that the winner of the division at least gets 4th place.

But not home court, if they have the worse record.

If the jazz are to win a series anyways, they are supposed to do it away from home. Look at Houston! OHH YEAH BABY!

This is going to be a fun second half of the season.
