    They are lost. Lucky to win one game in the playoffs.

    I wont say it's over yet but I give us a 10% chance of getting to the 2nd round and 1% at the WCF.

    Injuries suck, one of the most rollercoastery seasons in a long time, at least CJ and Leonard look good. Next season will be the true go for it all year (Assuming we don't get blown up by LA leaving and Wes comes back at a decent level).

    All depends who we get. Memphis with a hurt Conley and hurt Tony Allen is a 50/50. id give us the edge vs the Rockets then give us a significant disadvantage against anyone else.

    Honestly the way we're playing... Both those teams likely beat us in 6-7 games.

    Get off the ledge, this was a Jazz team that it was obvious we didnt come prepared for. Sure were going to be the underdogs, or so says the media, vs whoever we play but its not like we are going to get run the fuck over. If we lose we lose but you can bet we will make the other team earn those wins.

    Dude. We were without two starters tonight. Aldridge is resting a lot because is going to BEAST in the playoffs and no one can stop him this year. How we play vs Utah on April 11th without Aldridge means nothing. You should actually be excited. CJ is playing like an All Star and will be a very special weapon for us in the playoffs.

    It's not just the Jazz game though. We just are getting slaughtered defensively.

    In the three games we played with Aldridge before the GS game, we held opponents to 91, 90, and 77.

    Our D has sucked since Wes went down, especially in transition, our O on the otherhand has been fanfuckentastic. Your O can carry you through a round in the playoffs just not more then one.
    Ill only really be worried if we draw cp3 in round one, he will carve us alive.

    It certainly isn't looking good, but NO has plenty of ways to change the team this summer.

    With the Memphis loss and Clipper win the Spurs just moved into 5th place. We now have to play the Spurs and i am thinking it will stay that way. NO GOOD at all....
