J-Notes contributor John Keeffer joins the latest Three-Point Threat Podcast to discuss NBA Playoffs as well as what lies ahead for the Utah Jazz!

The 2017-18 Utah Jazz season came to a close at the hands of the Houston Rockets in Game 5 of their second-round playoff series. While it was sad and disappointing to see it end, there’s no denying that this was an exceptional season for the Jazz in which they dramatically exceeded their expectations.

Not only that, but there is certainly a bright future ahead for this incredible Utah Jazz team.

Before thinking about what’s next for the Jazz though, in today’s episode of the Three-Point Threat Podcast, J-Notes contributor John Keeffer and I first look back at the Jazz-Rockets series for Point 1 and give our thoughts on both the good and bad about the series.

Then for Point 2, we take a look at what surprised us about the second round of the playoffs while also giving our predictions for both the Eastern and Western Conference Finals.

Last of all, for Point 3, we turn our attention back to the Jazz and dive in to what they need to focus on this offseason in order to take an additional leap and vault themselves closer to contender status with the likes of the Rockets and Golden State Warriors.
