11 Wins to Go For Sloan

[seelenjaeger]

Finally I started rooting for Utah last night. It seemed to be a mission impossible at the start of the season, and they finally seemed to give in around the all star break when their record sank below the .500 mark, but they are STILL in the Hunt for the 8th place, and, a reminiscent scenario, they are still able to give coach Jerry Sloan his 16th consecutive season without a losing record, which would tie him with Red Auerbach.


After beating the Queens last night, Utah is back at 30-30 with the upcoming schedule:

That´s 8 "easy" games (5 of them on the road, so scratch the "easy"), leaves them to win at least 3 tougher ones ...

GO UTAH!

A back to back against the Blazers after a Pacers game on the road, Memphis on the backend of a back to back on the road, Lakers on the backend of a back to back after playing the Nuggets. Then the Lakers again, Twolves, Mavs and Rockets once more.

Wow, brutal freaking schedule.
