This link didn't work for me. Just brought me to the getty images website. Searched Utah Jazz Media Day from there and it worked. Pics are worth checking out tho. Nice post LjJazzman. Memo seems happy to be back!

A few observations:

AK does look beefier, this is good if he can keep the meat on.

The one pic of Sap looks like a little kid that wants to start the game but isn't lol.

Memo was either very happy for media day, or was drunk, but his pics are all fun. I especially like the one with him and AK holding the ball and rim, the look on his face is funny.

I thought Sloan's pic they used last year for all his the TV stills was a mistake, no that is his actual smile...

I think Kyle and Deron really became great friends over the summer, the one pic of them laughing is great.

Kosta is awesome...

Good stuff, too bad the NBA logo was all over everything, it was kinda hard to see some of the faces, but cool pics.

AK, Millsap, and Brewer all stood out physically. . Between Memo, Dwill, and AK I'm not worried about any locker room issues.

AK looks awesome. You can definitely see some difference in his upper body. I think that he looks the most improved along with C.J.

C.J looks way better than he ever has before. He hardly looks like the same kid that we saw play last year.

Kosta looks great for his age. Can't wait to see how he will continue develop his body as he ages a bit.

Brewer still looks ripped, should be interesting to see if he has improved his shooting over the summer.

Everyone else looks pretty good, nothing too different from everyone else.

I think the most worrying thing I heard from the interviews was Deron talking about his ankle. Did anyone else get a sinking feeling when he said it still has discomfort and he doesn't think it will ever be back to normal?
I injured my ankle bad when I played in an almost completely identical way as Deron did and its never been the same since, its slowed me down considerably and cut about 4-6 inches off my vertical. I really hope Deron doesn't have the same kind of problems...I want to see the athleticism he showed last pre-season before he rolled it. He was going to be dunking on everyone...

The mere fact Williams' still talking on his ankle's clear indication that, most probably, he will never be the same player again (athletically speaking of course). I've played a good amount of basketball in my life, so I know decent players just don't put his feet under his rivals, it's just not a thing you do... I still hope Derrick Rose ends up being a great loser, because the rookie did it just to impress people against Deron Williams in a practice game.

These are the kind of injuries that, specially early in a player's career, more often than not ends up being the difference between a All-Star and a darn good player...
