since, up until the recent winning streak, we were missing Gobert, Favors, and Burks for significant portions of the season. Not saying they can win a playoff series against GS, SA, or OKC, but it's not like they're horrible. Only team in the west capable of catching the Jazz for the 8th spot (unless we have more injuries and fall apart) is Portland. Sacramento already imploding. New Orleans, Denver aren't catching us.
