Hate to post it, but here’s the injury.

Speaking firsthand, ACL tears are painful. Pain at first turning to shock and then numbing, not super painful, but an ACL tear is easy to test without a MRI.

Pivot shift test determined mine was torn. Snapped like a rubber band and bunched up at one end.

Joe won't return. MRI tomorrow. Everybody pray for Joe.

Who started second half for him?

I didn't see that angle at that speed.

That's... bad...

Of course. It was bizarre situation. At that moment, everybody was pointing fingers at Elliott especially as we lost game 1. Everybody was like why?

Now the narrative is that Don is an ahole and responsible? I'm so tired of this BS. Slander after slander

It was very bizarre situation. Everybody was asking questions. We were all floored when he didn't play. I'm pretty sure Quin wasn't expecting it and definitely Don didn't.

That happens to any other all star, and there are major questions after the game much less waiting until the off-season. I think the lack of communication within the team was the major issue. Sure Don could have been involved, but the situation called for action.

He walked away on his own according to Zanik.

Utah Jazz make training staff changes for new season, as Donovan Mitchell says his ankle is 100%

Donovan Mitchell's ankle injury was one aspect that put a damper on their performance last playoffs — an injury that proved to be a controversial one. The Jazz have made changes to their training staff; meanwhile, Mitchell's worked out to 100% with his own training staff in Miami.

Best wishes to Joe.

Looks like Quin’s plan A of “get healthy and play well at the right time” is now off the table. It’s just a shame he doesn’t have any other plans.

It was bizarre for sure but there was some merit to the injury. Mitchell's got worse as the series went on so trying to protect him could have been the right thing.

The thing is Mitchell didn't like it, there was drama and Elliot got fired either because Don wanted it or Jazz tried to placate him on their own. I don't think it's much of an issue.

Butler gets his 3rd foul and a turnover in one second of action. Cool.

It has its place. It should happen about 1/10 as much as it does though.

Zanik said Elliott wanted to do other things.

If Don wanted him fired and had that much pull, it would have happened right away.

Donovan Mitchell got one of the best NBA medical doctors in the NBA fired because he's a ****ing baby and now we are dealing with the repercussions.

Really… GTFOH with that.

I think it was communication thing.

I just think blaming Don for Joe getting hurt is a great sign of how stupid things have gotten around here

Season-ending might mean we've seen the last of Joe Ingles and I am not ready for that ****. I don't even care if he sucks, I can't handle that. One of my favorite players ever. Legit on the verge of tears right now.

Me too… it’s over. I’ll bet he plays Australian league but we’ve seen the end of Ingles in the nba.

That's just company speak. Elliot was 'let go', 'looking for other opportunities', 'parted ways'. Whatever it was, he was fired because of what happened.

I think it was communication thing.

Especially on that type of play… just a completely douchebag comment.
