    Injured point guard Raul Lopez is back from his native Spain, still on crutches after undergoing surgery and rehabbing his left knee due to an injury sustained back on Feb. 23.
    "I'm working again, getting healthy to being a basketball player again," Lopez said.
    The usual Jazz backup point suggested he definitely will back next season, despite this most-recent surgery and two reconstructive surgeries on his right knee.
    "I don't have any doubt in my mind right now," he said, "about being a good basketball player again."</div>

    Sure he'll be back. The Jazz owe him money for next year. About 1.7 mil to be exact. But his knees will never hold up, and his days as a productive player are about over!

    Just how I see it................Tank
