Harden is shooting 0-15 and the Jazz are still losing. utah has zero scoring outside of Mitchell, not sure why they got rid of Hood and Alec Burks for Kyle Korver

yeah, Jazz are a threat to us, but not a threat to Houston. Just the way those teams are built, I was expecting Rockets in 5 and that's if Utah shows up and balls out in one home game which they might not.

let's be honest,, we would be beyond furious if the Jazz pushed the Rockets down to our bracket lol.
pro tip for the Jazz, win more games and you too can alter the seedings to your liking.

Remember how people were complaining that the Nuggets were a tryhard team in the regular season? That they were really more like a 5-6 seed, but they pushed for more regular season wins while teams like the Rockets coasted a little? Yeah, that 9-1 Nuggets start vs the Rockets' 1-5 or the Jazz' 4-6 starts turned out to matter for seeding. Last year the Nuggets missed the PO by one game because they came out slow; this year the Jazz/Rockets got knocked into an unfavorable bracket because they came out slow. Win more games and you can complain. Like, the Warriors can complain if they have to face the Rockets a round early, but the Rockets/Jazz don't have the right because they didn't win enough games. That's on them.

I still don't think the Nuggets were trying to be that cute by resting players against Portland. The players needed the rest and we could pretty easily have landed in 3rd as a result. The potential playoff seeding was just a bonus and it happened to work out for us.
Remember, s**t like this very rarely works out for the Nuggets. #forevermiserable

We had by far the toughest schedule to end the season of all western playoff teams
We were exhausted

Malone played Juancho and Isaiah Thomas down the stretch of that game.
let's just say, he was taking a very liberal approach towards the concept of losing.

Utah played the largest role in coercing Iguodala to join the Warriors. They volunteered to take dead salary from GS, specifically to f**k us. Make no mistake - Utah hates us.
I feel bad routing against them because I feel kinship with western states - but nonetheless - f**k Utah. They truly are our arch-rival and no franchise works behind the scenes to sabotage us more than Utah.

Utah is actually becoming quite a tech hub. SLC is a āgaspā hot city to live in now, amongst my tech friends

I love basketball, but imagine that's your only source of fun out there... Anyways, how about they thank the "basketball gods" for having the easiest schedule to close out the season + it's the time when a lot of teams are either tanking or resting players...

I think we're all guilty of looking at a small sample size and deciding that tells a larger story.
There were a bunch of Nuggets fans who looked at the Jazz early record and decided they were cooked or close to it even though all of the prediction models expected them to get really hot as the schedule gets easier.

Of course, this is just letting some steam off while waiting for the Spurs game...

Suns fired Igor Kokoskov. 1 year and done. The Suns now have the title of most dysfunctional franchise. It's competitive, but they have edged out ahead of the competition. Booker's 5 year contract extension hasn't even started yet and he's already on the clock for a trade demand.
