Do the Jazz have much of a chance of winning the series when Luka returns? They can barely manage to beat Dallas without Luka so far.

Dallas should just rest Luka. Gives us a more entertaining series :P

All the people wanting Kristaps to be Dirk 2.0, when all along it was Maxi Kleber

Zero chance that jazz team is back the same if they lose this series.

Time to blow that sucker up.  Need to retool that entire roster. It doesn’t work.

Golden State is starting to look dangerous and they're only just getting healthy again.

WOW, 41 for Brunson. What a game  :o

To somewhat the same extent, idk but something has seemed off about the Jazz just like people have been saying about the Nets. Lot of talent, theoretically some good pieces around the roster but I guess either the chemistry, cohesion and/or killer instinct are missing.

Agreed with the above posters, if the Jazz lose this series I think there'll be some trades this offseason probably of 1 or 2 of their stars (Gobert, Mitchell?). I mean, no Doncic and they are tied 1-1 and even the 1 Jazz win was barely a win, Dallas nearly won that one too.

I still think in a series with the Suns, the Suns will win. But yeah, I have GSW in the WCF

That would be a good series.  I may give the edge to GSW because of their experience and Steph, but Suns looked great in Game 1. I hadn't watched them this year and was surprised by their pace, shooting, and defense. Also didn't realize Chris Paul was 27 again.

That should be the WCF, but I think the Warriors will take the Suns out. Too much firepower. Suns need Booker and CP3 to be great every game.  They don’t have anyone else to pick up the slack. Golden State has Steph, Klay, Wiggins, and Poole who can score the ball at a high level. Plus, they have bigger wings to put on Booker.

Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Aaron Gordon is just rubbish come playoff time. What an obscene contract extension.

Even as someone who thinks Embiid should be MVP… watching the Nuggets this season you can also understand the Jokic argument.

Legit, this Nuggets team is atrocious without Jokic. And even with Jokic playing well the Nuggets might get swept here by the Warriors. OOF. Nuggets without Jokic might actually be a terrible team

At least Embiid has Harden and Maxey who is balling too in support

The Nuggets without Jokic would be no better than Orlando
