2-3 more straight wins and they're entering a rather elite teritory:
Here are the best starts to a season in NBA history, per Land of Basketball: 24-0 -- Golden State Warriors, 2015-2016 (lost in Finals) 15-0 -- Houston Rockets, 1993-1994 (won championship) 15-0 -- Washington Capitols, 1948-1949 (Lost in Finals) 14-0 -- Dallas Mavericks, 2002-2003 (Lost in conference finals)

Would be funny if they make the finals only for LeBron to beat them

Watching Wemby stepping outside to shoot 3s on every possession will do that to you.

But seriously, good luck to him. It's an illness I am very familiar with and fingers crossed it's only a small setback.
The funny thing is the moment Pop got ill Wemby started hitting those 3s. He’s been 14/27 in his last 3 games.

I watched the game vs Knicks live last night as it was a rare early game. Jazz have a problem. Need to find some mystery injuries because Lauri, Colin, Walker and John C are going to win too many games. Let Key keep stinking it up, and Cody Williams, who looks like a deer in headlights. When those guys go out you see teams rack up the score (Knicks went 17-0 run at one point), as soon as they came back in it was 15-3 or something and game was over. I don't think another 9th or 10th pick is going to cut it, next summer's draft is stacked but some potentially elite guys up to maybe 6 or 7 only. Let the big guys play in the games vs WC teams and on the road and rookies can all play at home. Sit guys. Do something so the team doesn't win 30 games again.

I think I read that at that point yesterday the WC v EC match up so far this season was 42-22, that's a big gap, and that's with a 15-0 Cavs team and the Celtics.

Watching Randle at Minnesota seems like such a weird fit in terms of team make up and ethics. He'll score you 20+ points every night but you've no idea which guy will turn up each night when it comes to D. Must be extremely irritating for guys like Rudy.

and KAT is playing good — happy for the trade so far. Miss Donte’s actions off the bench tho
