The Mike Elliot stuff needs to stop. Couldn't get Mike healthy last year... Mike learned about this thing called Yoga and now he good. But he totally could have stopped the Joe Ingles ACL or Donovan concussion!!!

We good lol? We haven’t reached the part of the season that hamstring is going to be an issue.

It sucks when facts fly in the face of your bull ****. Elliot couldn't stop a hamstring strain... I'm sure he would have healed a calf strain, ACL tear, and a concussion... not to mention he'd have fixed Bogey's finger.

Facts don’t fly in my face, the results under Elliot for injuries was very good.

It was an issue multiple times last year... and the year before that... so far been pretty good no?

Lol, so there’s some context to those numbers and you know it.

Exactly. For instance, a lot of the games missed this season were due to COVID + Mitchell's concussion - things that are impossible to blame on the trainers.

Sure... other than the re-occurring soft tissue injury that stopped Mike he nailed it. It could also be that part of injuries are luck. We have still had pretty decent health... its just that all the injuries hit at once.

So Bogey gets 60... JB ends up getting a DNP-CD because Forrest plays all 48. Also Udoka fouls out in 14 minutes of play and Hughes plays the 5.

I'm also ready for the "Memorial Austin Rivers Scores 50 on Us" game.

Even Debbie Downer thinks this **** too much.

FTFY

If we had better trainers Mitchell would be much farther along in developing Homer Simpson syndrome and be much better able to take a surgical 2x4 to the head with no repercussions. Duh.

Jazz are -4 tonight. Do what you want with that information.

Nuggets feel like free money. Jared Butler needs to get 40 to win tonight. Unless Jokic is out... I think he was questionable last night.

 

[Jazz Traveler]

Hoping Mitchell doesn’t have post concussion syndrome. That can turn into months or longer.

Nba players are the softest men in the world.

Looks like Butler and Hughes will get a lot of minutes tonight.

Nah we’ve signed Shelvin Mack Sr. and Jr. to 10-days.

 

[Jazz Traveler]

Forced to give Butler some minutes. There really is a silver lining.

Rivers vs. Bojan the matchup we’ve all wanted

We got this: "Acting Jazz coach Alex Jensen said that with Donovan Mitchell, Joe Ingles and Jordan Clarkson all out tonight, expect a lot of backcourts featuring two of the three of Mike Conley, Trent Forrest, and Jared Butler in various combos."

Not expecting much as far as a win but it could be a fun game to watch with both teams mixing up their lineups. Hopefully an above average energy game.
