Utah Jazz Win Total and Playoffs
Tyson Newman: I’m on the high end here at 46. Yes to the playoffs. I expect the Jazz to be top five defensively, which basically guarantees them 46 wins.
Karthik Narayanan: 47 wins and a playoff appearance. Barring any major injuries, the Jazz are going to be snag the seven or eight spot in the Western Conference.
Greg Foster: 46-36 and the No. 8 seed in the west.
Richard Lu: 45-37. Eighth seed.
Ryan Aston: Last season, I had one of the more optimistic predictions in this department, picking the Jazz to win 34 games. The team went on to exceed even my hopeful expectations. This time around, I’m going to go with the crowd and say they finish at 46-36 and make a return to postseason play.
With a little luck, they could surpass my personal prediction once again.
Blake Draper: 43 wins, Eighth in the Western Conference. The Jazz will build on last season’s strong finish, close with a winning record and grab the last playoff spot in the west. Hopefully the Jazz won’t do anything like this again in their postseason return.
