Walker Kessler out for the year

Alright.. you have a pending extension at your job that pays you somewhere between $100,000,000 and $150,000,000 over the next 4 years pending negotiations. The negotiations never happen.

Then you get workers comp for an on the job injury. Now you have an expiring contract and no guarantee of anything. If the surgery goes wrong or any number of hypotheticals occur then you COULD end up with a 50% pay cut...

You will be pissed.

Having said that, I would be thrilled with a 1 million dollar contract.

Bitch what marketable skills have you got that anyone is going to pay 1 million dollars for? Who do you think you are Hearsky's mum? Not only takes seven digits but is more than worth seven digits.

Pay you a million dollars, get a grip.
 
I looked at the Northwestern U Ortho website and it looks like a three month recovery period after the surgery and then physical therapy can begin. This almost sounds like Tay Henny a year ago.

I suspect this is a very different injury for the average person than it is for an NBA big man.

I mean Walker's day job involves all the things you probably shouldn't be doing on a surgically repaired shoulder. Massive hits coming out of nowhere, people yanking your arm, reaching straight up (a position where the shoulder is at its most vulnerable) for rebounds, etc...

Walker is also going to have medical care like the average person is not going to have access to, not to mention that rehabilitation will be his entire job.

I cant tell if your tone is jovial or not. But rubbosh knows best. I guess I should just give up now and sell my body to the streets.

Look its honest work, but there can be too much of it. Without bragging about myself being a long distance man, my two minutes with Hearsky's mum generally include, pants off, in, out and a post coital cigarette That's what the ladies expect, and they respect it. You don't want to over deliver, get weighed down with any of that continental nonsense, short, sharp and to the point. An approach to be appreciated in any walk of life.

I'm crying so many tears right now for Walker's wallet
 
I think with this injury news I would like to see more Hendricks at the 5. He's bulked up enough to hang with most 5s, and he's looked much better near the basket this year vs on the perimeter.

I'm not sure if that is the best thing for him or us long term, but at least at can experiment.
I like where your head is at. What would your lineup look like?

I was thinking

Collier
George
Ace
Markkanen
Hendricks

Second Team

Clayton
Sensabaugh
Wiliams
Filipowski
Nurkic

Third team

Harkless
Svi
Anderson
Love
Oscar


I like the defensive Versatility with that first unit as Ace has shown some help side defensive ability. I like Collier on the ball not great but getting better. His size and pasing allow George to look to score more. With markkanen, George, hendricks and Ace all able to shoot that will open driving lanes for Callier and he wont have to be a great shooter.

I think the center rotation should depend on the team we are playing. For example I'm not sure it would be a good idea to throw Hendricks at Jokic.
 
Lauri won't fit within our timeframe though so shouldn't we max trade value while he's playing so well even if it isn't mind-blowing?
Absolutely Jazz should max Lauri's trade value right now.
Lauri's PPG is 30,4 and so long when it is over 25,0 Jazz should trade Lauri
and just because he's ''too good'' for ultimate hard tanking which should start asap now when Kessler is out rest of the season.

I'm read those pro Ace fans whings in Jazz social media accounts ( facebook, and x ) last days
and only reason why they whine is that ''Lauri takes Ace's shots, points, minutes'' etc so what
faster Lauri is traded for better and more competetive team that faster those pro Ace ''fans'' gets what they want.

lol

If Ace ever becomes as good as Lauri is currently, that in and of itself would be a huge win for the Jazz.
