Mike Conley Resurgence

[yamers]

Mike Conley is a big reason for the Jazz’s surprising start. We wouldn’t be 11-6 without him after seventeen games. His playmaking has never been better and it’s been fun to watch. Here is a recent interview of him for those who haven’t seen it.

i sure as **** hope he is ok.

My guess is a knee sprain, but he will be out a few weeks for sure.

As we dig into the rotation, perhaps gives Ochai a few additional minutes.

Blazer announcers said hyper-extended knee.

Seems like beasley should be able to play the position a bit as well.

Sucks..... but we will manage and keep fighting.

The THT starter era will be glorious

how is there still no news on Mike? How long do MRI's takes? i'm sure one of you weekend DJs should know the answer. I've already gotten amazing medical advice from a few of yall on this forum.

Was thinking through options… if Mikes injury is long term and THT/others can’t pickup the slack… a low budget trade option would be Devonte Graham… decent playmaker and shooter at pg… solid game manager that is on the fringe of the deep NO rotation. They’d love to be off of his deal as they have a cap crunch coming. It’s basically 2 years 12m per… Gay and NAw would match… though NAW may have to go to a third team and another expiring deal subbed in to avoid the reacquiring player rule.

I think him being dealt to Portland first may have negated that. Or that may even just be for signings and not trades.

Yeah I’m not sure… there are work arounds. I think we might be able to sneak out of a deal Graham with a couple seconds too.

We don’t need to do anything unless it’s long term… and if THT/JC/Sexton aren’t covering well enough. Was just looking at guys that can fill the Conley role and he seemed like the most available substitute.

He is horrendous

Not sure Ainge should panic to get help while Conley recovers
Conley may not miss much
Team seems to rally when challenged
Maybe everybody can cover for Conley and no doubt Conley can be another coach for everyone
