I think they will be fighting for the 8th spot.

Like you said, I think those 6 teams (if healthy) are a lock for the playoffs. That leaves 2 places for competition and if the Pelicans improve or even stay the same, they'll take the 7th spot quite easily.

It could be a dog fight for that 8th spot.

I know most of you Jazz fans won't agree, but I am not sure

I agree, it is sad that the NBA didn't go to a "best 16" team playoffs scenario

Making the playoffs without Exum would be quite the accomplishment

Deron Williams was bad in New Jersey with a bad cast

kimdaddy35

10/7/15 2:30pm

I think Deron's bigger problem is he is way injury prone

You could be right... he has averaged 70 games per year over the past 3

kimdaddy35

10/7/15 2:38pm

He was the bad cast in NJ. All of the other players called him

By all of the players you mean Paul Pierce?

I'm not "sure" either

You are vastly overrating several teams......

I think the Jazz had a better overall roster than the Cavs team that

kimdaddy35

Yep - agree. That's why of all the teams you listed, N.O. is the one most

I think they make the playoffs, I would be more confident with a trade for a pg

I'm predicting 6th. Several of those teams are an injury away from mediocrity

Injuries happen and can change things quickly

I dont see Dallas doing anything. I think we will finish ahead of them.

10/7/15 2:36pm

For me the key to Dallas comes down to how far will Dirk regress

kimdaddy35

10/7/15 2:53pm

How do you even play Dirk without Chandler to help him on D?

I do think the Jazz will make the playoffs, I am fan for sure. However,

You really don't have to worry about the Lakers this year

I agree for the most part

The Grizzlies won't be able to beat the Jazz.

Lance71

Wow! That is a lot of faith in a guy that Jazz coaches themselves

kimdaddy35

Did you follow the Jazz and Rudy at all last season?

hessrp

10/7/15 3:27pm

Sure, they went 38-44 and finished 10th in the West

kimdaddy35

10/7/15 3:36pm

Neat. I'm glad you can see things from the 500 foot level

hessrp

10/7/15 5:33pm

No I see the team on an unbiased level

kimdaddy35

So, you didn't follow the jazz.

I agree. It is a lot of faith in Gobert. I have that faith. If I was a betting

Gobert had a tough go against gasol a few times last year.

There is no way IMO Dallas will be better than Utah this year.

Garnett is NOT a solid peace other than presence. On court he is a shell
