a closer look to the schedule

Jefff · Post #1 » by **Jefff** » Tue Mar 27, 2012 7:31 pm

After tomorrow game in Boston (a tough one, d.rose status is doubtful bus the bulls will react after a blowout loss agianst denver), we'll have 16 games left, with two back-to-back, the first with an home game friday against kings followed with a trip to LAC , and the second one with SA twice.

Overall just seven road games, and a good schedule

Being optimistic i predict just 3 losses (@LAC , @SA, @Memphis), but even if u predict 3-4 more we'll have an over .500 record.

Nothing is written in the "wild west", but not only we have a shot for the playoff , we have to push for the 4th seed that means home advantage in the first round.

9-6, that should put us in the playoffs, emphasis on the word should

I think 8-7 is the worst we should do...... Which should still put us in the playoffs.....

Hollinger has us winning 9 of these games, losing 7 of them, and finishing 6th out West.

I think we can win more than 9. Maybe 10, or even 11.

9-6 and likely 7th in the West playing the Spurs in round one. I want to play any team in the playoffs except Okla City.

Man I am so nervous about the game tomorrow. I do not think we will win, but that is only what i think... my opinion is that of one man! What I meant to say is I am not ready to crown the Jazz yet. We're not quite done teetering on the edge yet.. a few slip ups and we can easily find ourselves back in lottery-ville.

On another note, can you believe Nets were favored by 2.5 yesterday? Went straight moneyline on that bet... boo ya!

16 - 0 I believe they can do it

carrottop12 · Post #9 » by **carrottop12** » Wed Mar 28, 2012 2:27 am

I counted 8 wins which puts us in the playoffs with a 35-31 record, much better than the 27 wins I predicted.

I'm pretty sure we'll 10-5, I think we're 4-3 in our last 7 road games, so if we win 3 or 4 of our road games, then going 6-2 or 7-1 should be easily attainable. We might end up around 5th seed if we play this well. :-)

after the loss in Boston (i had a bad sensation so i decided to miss it) we can still be 16-0..... :-)

I wish we can win at least 9 games. We have to win Houston and Phoenix!

I think we can win more than 9. Maybe 10, or even 11.

Whichever amount of wins the Jazz get, that could be the difference right there between 4th and 8th!!

I'm hoping for around the 11 mark.
