There will be plenty of emotions in tonight’s match-up. In Dave Joerger’s return, it’s hard to predict what kind of reaction he’ll receive from the fans. He could receive boo’s for burying young players and publicly showing interest in other head coaching jobs. Some fans may look back to his playoff runs and his emotional press conference last year and give him a standing ovation.
Tonight’s match-up should be exhilarating. In addition to Joerger’s return, Mike Conley will be returning after being out for only three weeks with a fractured vertebrae.
