    That is ... I'm lost for words. Who would write such a thing, no less on one of the better guys in the NBA

    In fact, if Conley has a sense of humor I'm sure he would find it funny too. Not a career-threatening injury. At least doesn't seem that way

    Sucks for him. He's overrated and overpaid in my opinion.

    As long as there isn't damage to the spinal cord/nerves he should be okay. Bone can heal, nerves not so much.

    they said it was the transverse process. not sure how this would affect the healing process.

    As I predicted sitting on the sidelines in his favorite Armani suit. Why do these clubs not see the mistake of a player like Conley, the guy is an injury prone mess.

    They absolutely deserved it and as I predicted and injury prone player needs to be approached with caution...

    It's not exactly how I would use my sense of humour, but it's fine. Hopefully Conley does come back in a couple of months time.

    Gasol himself can keep them in the playoff hunt. Very underrated even though he's a household name.

    The gods are against us, I guess. I just can't believe that we are going through this two years in a row.

    I know that for compression fractures intervention rads can put some nice cement in there, really helps heal. Its a transverse but even then I don't think it should take that long.

    A lot of money on the bench between him and Parsons. A ton.
