Conley hamstringing again

[slc]

Players risk playing when they are hurt
Durant played hurt for Warriors
K Malone played hurt for Lakers
Even Rudy played hurt couple years ago
Conley should make the final decision whether to play or not
Conley is a warrior and most likely would risk playing

I think they’re also a little afraid of listing him as active because it looks like they’re factoring non-health issues into the decision.

It looks like they are licking their finger and placing it in the wind to me.

Sounds like Harden is deciding he gets to play tonight... it could be incredibly short sighted but these guys know their bodies... just depends on if they are honest with themselves.

Is Conley a warrior though?

Because he’s the only one who feels entitled enough out of the 15 guys to have his personal trainer on our bench during a game. It’s absolutely a “I’m too good for the same staff the rest of you all have” type of mentality. Having his own staff with their own opinions is fine. But they are not part of the organization or group that’s in a playoff series and they have no business on the bench during a game. That doesn’t build cohesion or lighten tension, that makes it worse and builds divide.

Are you really knowledgeable enough about the team dynamic and his staff to really speak on this or are you just speculating that it's a selfish thing because you don't like him?

Because LeBron James has had his own medical staff for years and he's doing things at his age and years played that nobody thought possible. Seems like Don is doing the same thing.

I have always been given advice that I should consult with two doctors before making an important medical decision. Considering these guys make 100s of millions with the hope of making 100s of millions more, do you blame them for paying for another opinion? Wouldn't you? Would you 100% just trust your work's doctor if they gave you workers comp medical attention that you questioned?

Conley is questionable for tomorrow's game.

As in: he ain't playing.

Idk what’s going on tbh. Maybe it’s worse than we think. They actually cleared Mike for the last 2 weeks of the season, and wouldn’t clear Donovan. He’s questionable for tomorrow, which is no surprise, but it feels like we’re headed towards out.

Let’s see how this goes tonight. KD thought he knew his body too, and snapped his achillies a few plays later.

You can consult two doctors. You don’t go pick up the doctor giving you a second opinion and take them over to your other doctor for them to tell them they’re wrong. As I’ve stated multiple times. I don’t have an issue with him having his own people. I have a problem when he’s mixing them into our games/bench. This isn’t hard to get through your head or understand. His personal trainers have no place on our bench during games or we may as well just start only hiring the people he hand chooses.

Between McMahon and Locke I have no confidence Mike plays tomorrow... Locke seemed pretty doubtful. I think he might truly be done.

DM needs to go for 50 tomorrow... Clips gonna have to miss a few of their open threes.

This. Sucks.

It's very discouraging. The most promising Jazz season since 1998 is about to end well short of what any of us had hoped. I worry we're bungling Mitchell's peak years and he's going to get fed-up with losing in the semifinals every year and bolt.

And I can't say I don't blame him. I've thrown around this stat a lot over the last few years but it rings true currently: if Utah doesn't advance against the Clippers, they will have the third longest WCF drought behind Minnesota and Sacramento - not surprisingly, the two worst-run franchises in the NBA currently. That says a lot.

I don't trust the Jazz FO. If they had kept Donovan out, the Jazz may have lost to the Grizzlies. Mike himself said before the start of the Clippers series that this is the playoffs and he was ready to play. That was a week ago.
