    Didn't see this posted:

    Hopefully he takes a cue from McGrady on how to come back from a surgery.

    Don't feel bad for him at all, I want j*zz to lose every single game. And he is a freaking floper as well.

    I just want the Jazz to make the playoffs. Can you imagine how dangerous the could be if they end up winning the lottery?

    Damn, a Williams to Griffin combo would be as lethal as Stockton to Malone!

    Though, to be fair, Battier isn't a typical case and his lingering issues are from overuse, not the initial spurs/surgery.

    AK *should* be ready to go in April.

    I think we have infected the Jazz with our injury bugs when we played them in the last playoffs. :D They are as bad as us in terms of injuries hitting key players this season.

    The only team that's been screwed by injuries almost as much as the Rockets this year are the Jazz.

    Doubt they would win the lottery. They would have the least balls in the lottery. They would need a miracle.

    come on u ppl! Stern won't let a high pick go to UTAH! It's Utah! they sell out all their tickets regardless of how they're playing. They don't need another boost. I'm thinking either OKC or maybe 'Sota will be awarded 1st and 2nd pick. Maybe he can go old school and give it to New York to boost that club.

    If the lottery were fixed NY would have gotten Yao or Lebron. :rolleyes:

    Oh yeah, that guy Tim Duncan would have gone to Boston.

    Not only that. The Jazz are under LT while the Suns are over. Better chance for the Rockets to get in on a fire sale if it's the Suns instead.

    the surgery will somehow diminish the possibility of deals involved AK47...
    anyway, i have thoughts that he would be traded all season~
