Butler gets his 3rd foul and a turnover in one second of action. Cool.

 

[LogGrad98]

going to once again reiterate my utter hatred of the euro foul strategy

It has its place. It should happen about 1/10 as much as it does though.

It was bizarre for sure but there was some merit to the injury. Mitchell's got worse as the series went on so trying to protect him could have been the right thing.

The thing is Mitchell didn't like it, there was drama and Elliot got fired either because Don wanted it or Jazz tried to placate him on their own. I don't think it's much of an issue.

Zanik said Elliott wanted to do other things.

If Don wanted him fired and had that much pull, it would have happened right away.

Utah Jazz make training staff changes for new season, as Donovan Mitchell says his ankle is 100%

Donovan Mitchell's ankle injury was one aspect that put a damper on their performance last playoffs — an injury that proved to be a controversial one. The Jazz have made changes to their training staff; meanwhile, Mitchell's worked out to 100% with his own training staff in Miami.

Donovan Mitchell got one of the best NBA medical doctors in the NBA fired because he's a ****ing baby and now we are dealing with the repercussions.

Really… GTFOH with that.

I think it was communication thing.

I just think blaming Don for Joe getting hurt is a great sign of how stupid things have gotten around here

Season-ending might mean we've seen the last of Joe Ingles and I am not ready for that ****. I don't even care if he sucks, I can't handle that. One of my favorite players ever. Legit on the verge of tears right now.

Me too… it’s over. I’ll bet he plays Australian league but we’ve seen the end of Ingles in the nba.

That's just company speak. Elliot was 'let go', 'looking for other opportunities', 'parted ways'. Whatever it was, he was fired because of what happened.

Especially on that type of play… just a completely douchebag comment.

 

[kabenac]

How is Clarkson so bad after last season? It can't simply be because of the change in basketball. Is the real JC locked in a cell somewhere and the imposter on the court one of those conspiracy theory reptilians?

 

[campaignist]

It just hit me that I don't care about this season anymore.

I am more and more in the mindset of "trade all the old players and role players you can and start over" every day. Ingles going down may have just made it permanent.

 

[oneye]

Of course. It was bizarre situation. At that moment, everybody was pointing fingers at Elliott especially as we lost game 1. Everybody was like why?

Now the narrative is that Don is an ahole and responsible? I'm so tired of this BS. Slander after slander

It’s not a narrative, it’s a pattern of behavior that’s proven and true.

If we never see him play in a Jazz uniform but he plays in the Australian league, I will fly to see his first game.
