On a 59-win pace? Twenty-nine wins in their last 40 games counting last season's 16-6 finish? It's early, yes, but it's all true.</div> Source We jumped five spots from #8 to #3. Good to see ESPN giving us some good ink in the last couple of days.
It's great that we're getting some recognition. Our team is playing great right now. Grant Hill is healthy, Dwight Howard is dominating, Nelson/Arroyo providing a nice PG duo, and a solid bench. I wish I could be more excited than I am now, but I can't help thinking about our 13-6 start last year (or year before?), or the possibility of Grant Hill getting injured. I just hope we can keep it up, and I believe we can as long as Grant stays healthy. Not to say that G-Hill is what we're relying on to get into the playoffs, but he's definitely a big factor in our team's success.
Its crazy every site you go to has either a Dwight or Hill article of some sort. Its amazing that we are finally getting some credit. Its all been about the Jazz so far, but once we knocked them off at home we finally got some press. I understand it very early but damn we have the best record in the East and what second best in the league. Just crazy...
Our record against the West is truly impressive. I think that's why we've been getting so much recognition. Road games versus the West is the toughest challenge for any team.
