I'm surprised he only averaged 30 minutes in the Memphis series. I swear there was a couple of games where he played around 36 or 37 minutes,
Yeah, sorry I should have looked.

33:04
37:11
35:40
32:06
11:35

That last game was when he got injured and it pulls down that average. Looks around 34.5.

I have less concern about adding 4-5 minutes in the playoffs and maybe having him do that now to help but he shouldn’t play in a back to back. But now that it looks like we can maybe duck Phoenix until the conference finals we are gonna push to get to the 2 or 3 seed. GS is more likely the team we catch but it still requires them to continue their slide and we can’t lose games we should win… the chances are low… I get the upside but Mikes health down the stretch is so important.
 
Is Butler healthy?

Jazz are favored by 15.5 tonight
 
House is gonna put tears in the Rockets' eyes. They dumped him for being a pillow fort playa and they will now pay for their PC nonsense.

It is a legendary Utah Jazz story involving Ronnie Brewer. I'll copy and paste a story a JF poster made covering it:


"The Pillow Fort

At its heart, the Pillow Fort Incident of 2006 is probably not the stuff of Great Moments in Jazzfanz. According to news reports, on October 23 of that year, four players for the Jazz—Deron Williams, Dee Brown, Paul Milsap, and Ronnie Brewer—invited a stripper up to their hotel room for…well…something other than sparkling conversation, I’ll guess. Forty-five minutes later, she appeared on the ground floor, crying and claiming she was raped. Again, this is not the kind of stuff you’d want to use for a standup routine.

Long story short, her story was crap, all charges were dropped, and the players were consistent in their description of events. Those descriptions, however, were amazing.

Deron Williams did the noble thing and left the room when he saw that she was upset and crying. Dee Brown—and I love this—had gone to his own room after eight beers at the bar to play video games. [note: the unexplained part of this, for me, is that he was playing video games in his hotel room. Did he pack his own XBOX? Portable system? Or are we talking those crappy 1980s hotel video games where you pay five bucks for half an hour of Super Mario Brothers 2 on a controller that looks like a twisted fetal NES pad?] Milsap also left the room. Which left Ronnie Brewer alone in a room with a naked, drunk stripper. And he responded the only way he could.

And I quote: “Brewer said the woman got naked and flopped on his bed. He built a divider with blankets and pillows, telling her she could sleep on the bed or the floor if she wanted to stay.”

Perhaps the saddest part of Old Jazzfanz’s death is that the thread on this subject is now lost to the ages."

I think he’s questionable or out with an ankle sprain. We should blow these guys out but sometimes we play with our food. I’m guessing you will see 7-8 minutes of NAW if we blow them out.
