Utah Jazz: Okur to miss tonight's game

It's sad to see Okur not play and Brewer as well.Hopefully others will step up and use the opportunity too tune up for the playoffs. Sickness can really weaken you at times but after you get well sometimes you can get a real boost of energy.

What's up with the weak immune systems that our Jazz players seem to have? It seems like Memo has had the stomach flu at least 15 times this season. Harpring's stomach has pretty much violently exploded off and on throughout the season as well. Brewer has the flu. AK has had the flu. Do they not give flu shots to NBA players? Maybe they just call it "the flu" whenever a player is feeling odd. A migraine headache? It's the flu. The sniffles? It's the flu. An ow-ee on their toe? It's the flu.

I thought there was only one flu season? I guess in the NBA, it's flu season all year round.

Then again, it may also be all the traveling they do throughout the season to places with all kinds of different food to eat, different climates (cold and warm) and such.

I'm happy of the Jazz's victory. This is on everything.
I hope my countryman Memo feels better as soon as possible and see him again on the floor.
GO MEMO, GO JAZZZZZ
