I think there is a good chance that we beat the Jazz but yeah that's a pretty brutal start to the season. I wouldn't be shocked if we were 1-7... that's what I'd predict but the Jazz could beat us to put us at 0-8. Hopefully we beat a team or two early on that are better than us and can start 2-6.
We better hope we're better than the Jazz. Shit if we aren't we won't win 30 games this season. Looking at the schedule we're going to need Shaedon, Scoot, Tou, Deni and Clingan to take big steps forward, we're going to need Jrue and Jerami to return to where they were playing before last season and we're either going to need Rob to play most of the season or Yang to be an all-rookie level contributor.
That's a lot of shit breaking the right way for us and I think that's just what we'll need to get into the play-in at around 41 wins. To get into the playoffs some of those steps forward for our young guys will have to be huge, like going from where they were to all star level play.[/QUOT
