Carlos Boozer out for 8 weeks right hand

[balli]

What's this doing in the JAZZ section anyway?

Saying "I told you so' is very much in the interest of the Utah Jazz. Well, the fanbase anyways.

We'll know conclusively just how Boozer treats his injuries because 8 weeks is plenty of time. If he takes 10-12 weeks, he's a straight wuss.

K, Dr. NUMBERICA.

Update: In a Chicago-area Best Buy parking lot, Boozer was quoted as saying,
"I'm getting a splint. Regardless."

P.S. BTW, did CeCe throw a counterpunch?

The real tragedy in all this is we never got a Carlos Boozer Injury Pool going. But even I would have given him at least a week into the season before Armani Suit Duty.

Boozer: "I came around a corner, fell over a bag, put my arm down to try to brace myself and fractured my fifth metacarpal into 3 pieces. It was just dark. My doorbell had rang and I tripped over a bag, tried to brace myself and it popped. I’m 265, 5 percent body fat. I’m heavy, man. I guess I had to brace myself and my weight just collapsed the bone right there."

This quote does not pass my smell test. Why's he bringing his (impressive) body fat into the explanation? But the real slip is "I guess I had to brace myself." He guesses? To me it sounds like, "I'm an excellent athlete so you know this was an accident" followed by, "And here's a plausible theory for how it happened." Someone who isn't guilty says, "I fell, I braced myself, I can't ****ing believe I broke my hand."

I heard from a very reliable source that Carlos was throwing a punch at Kyle Korver, whom he found in bed with Cece.

Now the question is will Cecetelldatruth?

Can someone run up to Kobe's house and ring his doorbell? Maybe he'll fall too and miss the first game vs. the Jazz.

Well, breaking a hand really isn't that predictable. All his other injuries were soft tissue.

...Carlos Boozer is soft tissue.

 

[jazzlurker]

Sounds to me like he was punching the clown...

Sad. Showing more aggression against a wall than he ever did on the court.

I wonder if he yelled "ahhhh and 1!" When he "tripped" over the bag?

Was it "intentional like a mother ******?"

Funniest thing I have read today.
