13-2 wouldn't be surprising. But neither would 11-4

im leaning towards 11-4 being a realistic scenario. i have losses at OKC, at IND, one to ATL, and some other random one, possible GSW.

yeah 11-4 or 10-5 is more realistic to me. We generally lose @SAC, the best we can hope for is to get a win where we don't expect one. I just hope either Atlanta, Indiana, or OKC has a bad game against us on their home floor.

I think we match up well with ATL, I find it funny that the one site had us losing to them twice... I wouldn't be totally shocked at once but meh. OKC and at INDY probably, even though we've played both excellently lately. I bet we will probably puke somewhere at least once or someone will go nuts, maybe either @GS or @Mil. Maybe one crazy loss if Sac or Phx goes nuts. I think we will stay fouces though and matchup well to this whole schedule. Even if we have a crazy loss we might make up for it with an ATL sweep or an INDY or OKC win.

I'm saying 3-4 losses.

1 more than the 9th seeded team is good enough for me.

We're due for a win in OKC.

hopefully being due doesn't actually mean anything, or that might mean a loss tonight against the wolves and possibly next game against them too!

*As a Jazz fan, I would like you guys to give me your best and worst case scenario for both March and April, for what you predict as your wins and losses. Give me you worst possible outcome in W's-L's, and your best possible outcome in W's-L's...

I want to compare them to our predictions, and also with HOU and GS fan made predictions, so I/we can figure out who is making the cut. So if some of you can make a full March and April prediction on top of your March predictions that would be awesome.

Your logic makes no sense, there is no chance they will not win anymore games, and no chance they will win them all, so that is it not a basis for any worst or best case scenario. I thought if you would give me two illogical answers between all of you, I thought I could average them out. I will see if my guesstimate sounds right to you guys:

I was thinking: Current 29-30

12 Road More - 6 vs Playoff +.500 - Your 52% on the road
11 Home More - 6 vs Playoff +.500 - Your roughly losing 1 game for every 2 wins

You face, HOU x1, GSW x2, POR x1, and DAL x1

I guess you win 12 more games, 6 on the road and 6 at home...even if not towards the .500 teams. A

I am guessing around 41-41 season. But if you win the HOU and GSW games, that will help you catch up even more.

I also am predicting that HOU and UTA are 44-38ish, and GSW 48-34.

I personally think it can happen, but HOU is the only team I think you have a chance of passing up, and they have a pretty sweet schedule, only 9 more +.500 teams, 3 of which on road, while spending 2 weeks in Houston to finish March, with 1 road trip before going back home for a week before finishing off in PHO and LAL.

Then again, professional predictions, say HOU will be 6th, and GSW and LAL to be 7th and 8th. With Utah having the 41-41, not LAL.
