Lame.

This is basically the playoffs. He can go. Play his ***.

I've been playing Locke's podcasts backwards; so far, no mention of Burks, although ... has anyone seen Burke lately?

They changed his America First Credit Union Ad. Now there is a voice-over that says n't after Trey says is. (voice-over)

Salt Lake is(n't)my town
Utah is(n't) my team
and America First is(n't) my credit union (I BANK AT A BANK. 1%er, BITCH!)

The ad is weird but the last bit seemed to be a little over the top
 
Someone on the medical staff test ingles asymmetry, balance, and lifting abilities... Then when your done compare to Alec's test... Then punch yourself in the balls and clear him to play.

This was my rant earlier in this thread... They are being incredibly conservative. He's healed, he's playing, he wants to play, put him out there and stop trying to be the smartest ****ing guy in the room. Somewhere John Stockton is shaking his head and Karl Malone is talking in third person about how Karl Malone never needed no balance tests to put da ball in da hoop.

do you think there would be as much mystery about his return if Utah had the same in-your-face ******* reporters that larger markets have? Our media need to step up and get some answers.

They're probably to busy writing their hunting or fishing news stories. I know when I lived in Utah many years ago, they would skip basketball or baseball scores to shown footage on a Paul James Alaska fishing trip. Seems like they haven't gotten any better. There was no internet back then so it drove me nuts when they didn't cover the scores.
 
There is no other team anywhere on any sport that doesn't play healed players cause the right arm can lift more then the left hand.
Isn't that what happens to everyone. Like your left handed or right handed.
The Jazz sound like they hired some hippy trainer who drives a prius and believes that meat is murder. Get a new doc.

It doesn't happen to basketball players because they are so famous they don't have to do as many right arm workouts as you.
 
I believe the plan was always to bring him back for the Clippers game so he can bury Pierce in the ground so badly that he has to retire at that very moment, or his soul just leaves his body... either way. Basically combining the following except it would be Pierce at the end.

I wish I had the time to find the gif of Burks dunking on the Clippers and then put Pierce's head on DeAndre's and then add that coffin from the last .gif (I know I've scene one where they made a spirit leave his body as well but couldn't find it).
 
We truly are blessed to have so many sports medical experts on Jazzfanz. The outrage in this thread is hilarious.
 
I would've preferred that they never reported that the ankle was 100% healed. How long has it been since it was reported that the ankle was healed? A was it a week, two weeks, longer??

Your lack of outrage is hilarious.
 
Tbh I don't think it matters if Burks getts ready. The Jazz don't have an easy schedule and in order for Burks to potentially make an impact IMO it would require a 6th seed, which isn't impossible but rather unlikely right now. Even then it isn't given that an extra 3 games for Burks before the playoffs would provide him with enough practice to affect the outcomes of games against OKC.
It could even be better long term to get a glimpse of what playoff Spurs basketball means. Learning experience for next (hopefully more healthy) season.
 
Just read an article in the Utah jazz newsfeed section saying that he will play in games this week.
