Me too. Honestly what I'm most worried about is the Jazz not going all-in this year and nabbing one of those top picks. Without the potential superstar what I said is almost a guarantee.

This summer Lindsey proved that he sees what we see. I'm holding out hope that he'll make a move to get us a bottom 3 record.

I think our tank is still in tact. We arent exactly racking up the wins. We have lost more games than anyone. I think the Jazz have to play a delicate game of balancing progress this year and the tank. In the beginning we were worse than bad, and that had the potential to be damaging to the team. I think the Jazz should and will let this little bit of success pan out for now. Because the odds are that we will sustain enough injuries to temper any overachieving we might have. We are barely a decent team at full strength. With injuries we are terrible. I think we can all feel safe about our chances in this.

I read on espn fantasy basketball that Richard Jefferson sat out practice today with a bad back and is doubtful for tomorrow's game. But I didn't see any local reports about it. Has anyone heard if Richard is really hurt?
I wonder if ther is a real injury or if DOL is helping Richard remember that title hunting season doesn't start until July 1.
(Isn't this Richard's first game back in utah after he made the title hunting comments on the last road trip?)

I haven't heard anything about that. What I did hear, however, was that Gasol won't be making the trip to Utah

97.5 on the radio today during the jake and tony show reported that Jefferson is doubtful for tomorrow's game.
Hopefully we are trying to tank. The lakers at this point are just as vulnerable as they've ever been. I could easily see us beating them by a god 8-15 pts tomorrow. Seriously, look at their starting 5. Talk about ravaged by injury, sheesh!
MIL at Brooklyn tonight... After all those OT I'm ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY sure that it's time for them to WIN TODAY!!!
Why do you insist on jinxing?
every time you jinx an underage girl loses her verginity
LOL.. so you're one of those people who think that what I "think", 5,000 miles away, will actually have an impact on the outcome of the game?!?!
Are you being serious right now???!!???

Horford with a major injury it looks like. Hate to see this but it does work in the Jazz favor for two reasons. 1.) Tanking teams out east are occasionally going beat a Millsap/Teague led team. 2.) Marvin Williams could be traded back there as a one year filler for them.

"If it is indeed a torn pectoral for Horford then it will likely cost him the remainder of the season. Horford tore his left pectoral muscle just 11 games into the 2012 season."

Its good news...they have 16 wins.
Just trying to make sure you understand the consequences.
Do you think they'd give us their Brooklyn pick for Williams?
wow didn't realised they already have 16 wins.. this is good for us then, LOL...

I think they probably ask for Gobert as well. They would pick #7 as of today but could see that pick going to around 16 if Nets make the playoffs in the weak east. Not sure if I would do that or not.
Good-ish news for the Tank - Larry Sanders checked into the game for the first time since the injury in the bar fight.
