Season Opener: Utah Jazz (0-0) @ Denver Nuggets (0-0)

Not sure if anybody wants to do any game thread graphics, but on my way to shovel some snow, I figured I'd get this up. Feel free to link or post any images you want, and we can edit them in to this post.

You are going to be the first team to go 0-82 and here is your start.

Bat you like an all-star hater. You show up every nuggets-jazz game to talk a lil trash. Then you disappear into the wasatch mountains until these two teams meet again.

[Bat]

It's what I do.

There is really no better feeling than trashing on NO-KG-AI who seems to have dissappeared from this board, and of course Corona my long time nemesis.

Sitting in a snowy traffic jam at 8:15 a.m., George Karl realized he probably wouldn't be the only person dealing with Mother Nature's mother of a snowstorm. And so, the Nuggets coach made this morning's shootaround voluntary.

With an 8:30 p.m. game, Karl figured he'd have enough time to talk shop with his boys before the season opener against Utah.

But how about Anthony Carter? The reserve point guard, who lives about 15 minutes from the Pepsi Center, made the treacherous drive to the arena to work out. He said he was so pumped for the season opener, that he was up at 3 a.m. and wanted to get into the gym.

And Johan Petro, who likely won't play much, was the only other Nuggets player to make it (though, full disclosure, the dude lives basically across the street from the arena).

As for opening night, Karl said: "There's a childlike energy and enthusiasm and nervousness to opening night. It's an 82 game season but the first one's always a little more juiced. To throw Utah and Portland in front of us for the first two games is interesting scheduling."

Karl hasn't yet announced his shooting guard starter, though it's likely to be Arron Afflalo or Joey Graham.

GK and Hess obviously don't get along very well at all
If you were to ask me, who does Karl look like, my response would be:

[corona]

thats why AC gets all the minutes.

drives through a foot of snow in his lime green hummer just to get to the morning shootaround before anyone else.

[Powder Blue]

Love the Stay Puft marshmallow-man comparison to GK....

Hey Bat I got 2 moves that put the jazz over the top.
1. Hire Barkley to be the GM
2. Trade Boozer for S-Jax

Can you name two better guys to make the city of Salt Lake their new home???

NO-KG-AI is a Hornets fan. He's never really posted on this board.

Is it just me, or has Karl gotten fatter?

[MHZ]

Pretty bad angle to take a picture of anybody, I'd think. Nobody looks flattering in that position.

I don't know what she looks like in a seated side view photo, but imo she looks fine in her new video.

It looks like he dropped about 20-30 pounds
































































































from his belly to his butt. His fat ass can't even fit in that chair. I guess eating all of those turkey dinners with the character guys has taken its toll on him.

Veteran Anthony Carter will start at shooting guard for the Nugs vs Jazz!
