Has anyone heard anything about how he's doing with the ruptured achilles recovery?

Its a VERY good sign that we aren't hearing anything I think.

I think it would be better for anyone who cares about the Jazz if somebody from the management or Memo, himself, made us aware of the recovery process.

Who cares? I want to see more Fes.

# Jazz GM Kevin O'Connor said yesterday that he talked to Mehmet Okur and Okur was feeling good about his rehab from ruptured Achilles.

# O'Connor said Jazz would know better in September whether Okur would be ready for start of the season. 4:42 PM Jun 18th via web

If we had memo in the lakers series, i guarantee we wouldn't have been swept. Like him or not, Memo is still a better option at center than Fesenko. I like Fes, i really do, he's just not there yet.

I just hope he gets better. You gotta respect a guy that tries to play through a serious injury in the playoffs

I love Memo. Sure he's white and slow, but he's a great guy. He's absolutely hilarious as well. I would bet he's the hardest worker and the best teammate on the Jazz. We need his clutchiness back.

I dunno about "hardest worker." For years one of Sloan's main complaints was that Memo was out of shape when the season started. That said, he is hilarious and generally clutch, so....

After he crunched up Dee Brown's neck real good, Memo even got Brown, injured neck and all, to bust out laughin when he came to his hospital room, and asked: "Who did this to you!? I will punish them!"
