Burks shoulder had been bothering him, replay of the Awfalo foul shows burk with a sleeve on it. Awfalo made it worse.
 
i hope that the nurse can't find afflalo's veins to do blood work so she has to slap him on the hand for like two minutes for the veins to come out
 
Sounds like you can scratch the 'might' from the thread title...

Dennis Lindsey on Alec Burks: "We have four different opinions on Alec, and they have all been consistent. He is out indefinitely."

Damn. Hoping it's a labrum and not a dislocation or torn rotator cuff. Labrum is fairly common and relatively easy to come back from.
 
I'm really puzzled with ejections the last couple of nights. Afflalo was clearly sorry after he landed about what he did. Yet he deserved to get fined AND suspended for min 3 games imo. After Burks repositioned the ball midair Afflalo was clearly changing his "block attempt" into a "the ball is gone, I'm fine with the head" foul.

And then the other night there was this OQuinn vs Griffin. OQuinn tries to commit a hard foul, but hits hand and ball before Griffin crashes into his forearm because he was in motion. Then the NBA wants to make an example about what's going to happen from now on when you foul Griffin hard...And he getts suspended over a basketball play.

And better....Jody Genessy @DJJazzyJody
More Jazz news: Source tells me it's "very possible" Utah will re-acquire Andrei Kirilenko in exchange for Jeremy Evans and Toure' Murry.

Now if sources would just report seeing Matt Harpring working out at ZBBC life would be complete.
 
Utah would get an injured player exception and be able test out some newbies or have money to absorb a contract in a trade. Maybe AK47?

I'm more worried that this could set back his development. Even with a lot of loses, this was going to be a big year for Burks.
 
Why trade bench warmers for a more expensive bench warmer... unless they think he can still play D and show the rest of the team how to not suck?

Yes, and the worst thing is that after fouling him he kept barking at him like saying 'why were you in the way?'. Piece of ****...

Thanks man lol.
I'm good. There is a game tonight and I can't wait for it.

I'm glad he signed that contract.

Excited to see exum and hood get more opportunities..... I'm not only a Burks homer. I'm a big hood (and gobert) homer too, so at least I will get to see more hood.
