Is Conley Ded?

[oneye]

Jazz are notorious for not giving people the full diagnosis. Which kind of sucks because it fuels an idea within some fans that certain players are soft. My guess is that this "tight hamstring" is actually hamstring strain. If that's the case he was likely to be out for at least a few weeks as soon as the injury happened. But they say "hamstring tightness" and make people think it's a game time decision every night smh.

It's like Donovans toe/foot injury. They would never say what was actually wrong and he ends up being in a boot most the summer, later you find out he had a metal plate installed in his game shoes leading into the next season and they didn't let him play basketball almost the entire offseason. Just be up front about injuries playing them down or not just saying what the actual severity of it is is just dumb.

The tight hamstring could be anything from a strain, to a cramp, a partial tear or a back issue like a bulging disc. It would be nice if they shot straight.

The original diagnosis was "hamstring tightness" and Conley will have missed two weeks for it. But there's been very little news about it. He's participated in practices, though maybe not full contact.

We’ve had the same thing with Ricky the last couple years and it lingered all season... hopefully they are being really cautious and just making sure he’s 100% prior to bringing him back. Hamstrings are kinda important.

so... not ded

Did anyone notice what Conley has been doing on the sidelines? Did he travel to Minnysoda? Does he sit on the sidelines with a far away look like Dante or is involved and interactive with teammate s and coaches?

My guess is they’re being super precautious about it especially with the competition the Jazz are playing right now. Hamstring are nothing to **** with. If he popped it count the entire rest of his tenure as permanently out with injury. It’s great they are precautious with it. If your not it’s like Rodney Hood saying before the game his achilles was bothering him, playing, then popping it in that very game. Mike can sit until he’s 100%. The Jazz have enough talent they should win most of their upcoming games without him. You need him long term. Risking something short term that will have long term implications is beyond stupid.

The rare good point! Is Conley going to New York too?????

Neto had a string of shagging injuries

Does anyone know the official diagnosis? That tight hamstring is taking a long time loosening up.

According to the Dante model, it takes at least 5 years of no production and noticable talent regression to be considered ded.

Neto had a string of shagging injuries

Lol. Has to be true

He's a ridiculously more expensive version of George Hill at this point. Hope I'm wrong as the season pushes forward.

I know everything has changed, but how long do you think John Stockton would have set out with this injury?
