Is there a support group for Burks fans? I need emotional support right now. Anyone know Paul pierces address?

I'm ****ing fuming right now. This is outrageous.

I don't remember who said it, but I read somewhere on the forums(either here or on realgm) that they were seeing Burks at the airport several days a week and he was flying to LA and NY. The person who posted this said, he's probably getting second opinion from independent doctors. And it turns out that was correct. I'm glad that he did his surgery away from our medical staff, they've proven to be worthless. I really hope some heads roll! This just cannot be happening. You cannot screw up the supposedly routine surgery and rehab of a multi-million dollar athlete like that. This just cannot be happening. It's amateurish.
 
You should be jumping up and down as it will result in more minutes for your boy no matter what position he plays. More minutes = faster progress. Or this equation is too difficult for you to understand?

Do yo watch the games or are you just a dumba$$,it makes a big difference when your young and having to play a totally different position (SG instead of PG) OR are you just a secret Shelvin Mack lover when he plays PG instead of Exum.
I make no apologies for thinking Exum is way better for the Jazz then Mack is in handling the ball,so you can go sniff in some other hole ....
 
I am definitely leaning towards Burks being a bust at this point. Time to cut bait. He can't help us if he's never healthy.
 
I had a feeling he wouldn't be back. Just way too quiet. It sucks. I feel for Alec who I'm sure wants to play.
 
So the Jazz spent 3 months determining what was exactly wrong with his ankle and had 5 different specialist look at it. Crazy.

Damn, jumping to conclusions much. I'm sure the Jazz are the ones who have been sending him to see out ankle professionals, not Burks. Complications can happen with any doctor in surgery to no fault of theirs.

Kristen Kenney said during her report that the Jazz had known about this as early as September. Wonder why they waited so long?

Probably wanted to multiple opinions and probably had to see how the ankle would react to the rehab they were doing. I don't know, hard to say because Im not a doctor and more importantly, not his doctor. I'm guessing w/e happened it was a highly unique situation.
