<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">MIAMI - Gordan Giricek stayed home Monday as the Jazz embarked on a trip that will include his two previous NBA stops, Orlando and Memphis. He's doing it, he said, in hopes of returning to action before the NBA season ends in six weeks. "I have no guess. It's very sensitive," Giricek said of the sore left Achilles' tendon that has sidelined him since Feb. 1. "I mean, [the Jazz] would like me to play, I would like to play, because I'm sick of this, being out. . . . But I don't want to hurry this because this is my profession. I think I can give more to basketball the next two years and longer if I heal." Giricek has begun shooting drills, in addition to his usual therapy on his calf, but he has to wear the protective boot when he does. "I like my form," he said of his jump shot. </div> <div align="center">Source</div>
