Okay folks, so the first round of the playoffs are history. The Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers, Miami Heat, Indiana Pacers, Los Angeles Lakers, Clippers, Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs all advanced. In the playoffs there are teams that are serious threats to win it, and teams that just aren't. The haves and the have nots. I'm certain that some of the hesitancy of some fans to 'go for broke' going for the playoffs back when we were the #12 seed was because even if we did made it we would do poorly. To be fair, we did get swept by one of the best teams to ever beat a Utah Jazz team in the playoffs. But to also be fair, we weren't *that* great a team either. We know our strengths and we know our weaknesses.
Were we the worst? Which team was the worst team, if it wasn't us? The New York Knicks? The Atlanta Hawks? The Chicago Bulls? Orlando Magic? Denver Nuggets? Dallas Mavericks? Memphis Grizzlies . . . . or was it honestly us? What do you think Jazz fans. I say we were better than the Knicks.
