Anyone know when Alec Burks is returning to the line up?

It's too late. Gobert and Burks should pack it in, get healthy. Nothing to hurry back for going on.

I was told he was healed. I don't get what's the holdup. Initially he was supposed to be back with surgury in 6 weeks. It's going to be double for whatever reason.

Our excuses for why we suck, suck worse than the Jazz. Because Exum and Burks are out, we aren't that great? Give me a break. The Clips have torn **** up without Blake Griffin.

They are a veteran team that knows how to play the game. We are the fourth youngest team still trying to figure things out.

They play with a lot of consistency where as we are very erratic due to all of the youth. Believe it or not, we'd be more consistent with Exum, and let's also not forget that Gobert and Favors were out at the same time for a decent amount of time.

I also remember the Jazz doing fine and not missing a beat when Stockton was out for a period of time one year, and same with Malone when he'd miss a game here or there. They knew the system inside and out and were a well oiled machine. This team isn't. Hopefully they get there.

I said when Exum went down this would be a problem for us having too many bad stretches in games and throughout the season. This wasn't unexpected for me. Just didn't think we'd have this big a problem with injuries.

They do have the guy who was widely considered the best PG before Steph Curry emerged.

Let me get this straight. They have Chris Paul and got better when Griffin went down so that makes sense but once Exum/Burks went down for us, we were ****ed?
 
Other teams have a GM who believes in having a quality bench. They have owners who believe in spending money to field a playoff team. We don't. DL has restricted himself to shopping at the Dollar Tree to fill out the team. The Jazz' payroll is 28th in the league (AGAIN).

So many small moves would have made a huge difference... Jared Dudley, omri casspi, Cory Joseph, teletovic, didn't have to be nordstroms but hell let's at least walk the aisles of wal mart... Instead we went to whatever dollar store the have in Europe and got Neto and Pleiss.
