    What first-round playoff results could cause the most NBA chaos? A rooting guide for Jazz fans

    The NBA Playoffs are fully underway, and while the competition, talent and excitement levels are reason enough to watch, there's nothing wrong with a little added incentive. As the Jazz look to the future, the best chance of them making a big move — catching some of the “big-game” players that would really make a difference and accelerate the rebuild — only comes if there are other teams that are willing to part with difference-making players. The Jazz want drama and chaos in the playoffs because it puts them in a much better position to make a trade offer on a player if the team they're pitching to feels like it lacks direction and can't meet expectations with its current roster. The No. 1 seed Thunder are young with an MVP candidate in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
