Lauri out for "personal reasons"

Walker available

Jack up a lot of threes white boy.

Looks like Poole and Middleton won't play. I'd be shocked if the Jazz lost this one

So... do the Wiz get a $100K fine? Middleton was an all star at one point if I remember correctly.

 

[Park Bites]

Normally I’d agree, but let’s face it each teams defense will force each team to score

It will be like watching a bull fight. "Ole defense"

Harkless and Potter arent playing for the Stars right now (game ongoing). Oscar is.

IDK if that means we see them in the Jazz game. I think Harkless might be injured but they havent even bothered to tell us?

Elijah Harkless Injury: Sits out G League game with injury | RotoWire

Harkless was inactive Saturday in the G League Salt Lake City Stars' 121-101 win over the Texas Legends due to a groin strain.

Looks like Harkless has a groin strain.

No, they don't. Only this season and the previous two count (and Middleton's last All Star selection was -22). Plus comparing him to holding out Markkanen for 9 straight is not very useful, when Middleton has in fact played in 11 straight games.

Wouldn't hurt to file an official complaint. At least give out the impression that everyone is doing it and no harm no foul. So we don't get singled out and look bad from that Lauri fine.

I think he actually hurt his ankle last game.

 

[Park Bites]

at this point we need Collier to rest as when he is in the offense is moving. Let Key be our tank commander and chuck shots

But didn't Lauri have a legit injury though? Last time I checked Brogdon was held out for an ankle injury and missed 14 straight. Last time he played was over a month ago. Ask them to release the medical record. What kind of ankle injury requires 1month+ to recover?

We just need to organize a long practice and then weights session to make sure we don't have any legs.

Nice. 10 mile jog followed by 5 x 1/4 mile sprints... 2 hours before game time?
