    I have zero sympathy for the Jazz and their fans, so I hope this is true.

    RT @tribjazz: Jazz just announced that Carlos Boozer won’t return. X-rays were negative but he has a muscle strain in his right rib cage.

    He'll probably be ready for the playoffs, but the game tomorrow is in doubt. That's huge for us.

    Welcome to our hell, Utah.

    That is if this is true. Could just as easily be a fabricated rumor.

    From Rotoworld via UtahJazzOnTwitter w/ Rotoworld comments:

    Carlos Boozer will not return to Tuesday's game becauser of a strained muscle in the right side of his rib cage.

    The good news is that X-rays were negative -- hopefully this won't jeopardize his status for the start of the playoffs this weekend. Expect Paul Millsap to step into a major role for as long as Boozer is sidelined.

    Hopefully they drop to 4th/5th and have to face off Denver and we get one of Phoenix/Dallas.

    Don't ever wish for injuries for another team. It's bad karma.

    Or, he'll miss a game with a pulled muscle.

    Not quite as flashy, is it?

    Well, if this helps Phoenix win tomorrow, that will be good.

    Especially without Roy at 100%. I can already see Rudy's skinny knees and elbows bounding down the court and turning the ball over while trying to play an up-tempo game.

    That's not karma.

    Karma would be if you wished an injury on a player and instead a injury happened to you. Your good and/or bad karma can't affect a 3rd party. That would be their karma.

    We want Phx the most by far between Dal, Phx, Den or Utah IMO.

    That seems more like irony than karma. Karma would be you wish injury on a player, and then you walk outside and a flock of seagulls take a simultaneous dump on your head. Or, irony would be you stayed away from a ski trip for fear of breaking your leg, and then fell off the ladder at home that weekend and broke your leg.

    Hmm...

    Are you guys watching them play Denver right now? If Boozer is truly hurt and will potentially miss time in the playoffs then that is a much much better matchup than Phoenix. The Suns have been clicking ever since we played them down there at the all-star break. Denver plays no D anymore and we have had Dallas' number all year.

    He's only missing one game. And it doesn't matter if Denver doesn't play D, we stink on offense against physical teams.
