Joe Ingles Appreciation Thread (Edit: Confirmed ACL, Out for Season)

[LoPo]

I feel bad I'm one of those who wanted to trade him. I hope nothing serious and he recovers well.

Joe Ingles is the only Jazz player I have never put in trade ideas. Love the guy too much. This injury is heart breaking.

Aussie here grew up in the 80s watching and loving Stockton / Malone …

Fast forward to Joe , to have an Aussie play and to be so loved with in the whole organisation… so proud …

His body of work and dedication to the team is more than enough to warrant his jersey being retired. 8 years in a jazz uniform is among the longer tenures here. He deserves it.

The good news is with this devastating news the NBA definitely cancels this season... likely next as well. Why play if Joe won't be there.

If he doesn't get a statue I will burn down the Viv myself.

I'll struggle to watch another game this year. There must be a word in English for crushing, heart breaking sadness? Something profoundly beyond despair. I was worried he might get traded, now its will we see him again?

Yep. Statue blowing a kiss to the court side fans. Absolutely.

The word you are looking for is "Trump".

Thing that gets me about Tony Jones article was that Joe was in tears after the game, that shouldn't be pain, that's something much worse. That's him coming to terms with an end of the road not of his choosing.

100%. I think this year was his NBA swan song. I think he always kinda planned that way. This isn't how it was supposed to end, but also this might be something that makes it too hard to rehab from for him to play in Australia... this may have just been the end.

He's got a lot going for him in his personal life. It may end up being a great thing for his family to kind of have the reigns taken away. I have no doubt he will have a happy and fulfilled life. Whatever he does next he always gets my love and support. He's an actual hero and great dude. Also he's a ****ing menace on the basketball court. Someday men will revisit limericks and poetry written about the great hero that is Joseph Horwarth English III.

Oddly Joe and Renee listed their family home in Melbourne this week, offers of 10-11 million will be considered.
