JR Smith is suspended. Second year in a row that we benefit from a Nuggets player being a moron. Might want to fix the starting lineup there.

This game isn't as monumental as the last Nuggets game, but I'm feeling good about having our best players healthy.

I'm so excited to see Boozer back and look foward to him shutting all the haters up!

my hell our bench really is that weak isnt it?

Inexperienced players are gonna need to step it up. I like our bench yeah, but they have a lot to prove millsap is really the only one who has showed he can do it.

Im happy its a road game to see how Jazz play on the road. If the Jazz win, I will be very impressed but if they get blown out then back to same old Jazz. I think Dwill going to have an MVP type year with scoring more as well as having his assists. The Jazz win a close one is my prediction.

We have the 2nd highest payroll in the league and thats our bench. Ouch!! This year should be interesting. Williams is going to need to start off the year playing like a all star.

My guess is the starters play a good 40 minutes each with how shallow our bench is and Fesenko is second big off the bench after Millsap.

Well, we do miss Korver, Miles and Price from that lineup...

I'm stoked for the season to start but I won't look too deeply into this game. There's already too many injuries for us to see how the team is really going to look this year.

I can't decide if it's a good thing to start the season playing against the Nuggets or not. JR is out which is good since he always burns us but we are missing Korver, CJ an possibly Price. Hopefully we can make a statement early and get an important W on the road for confidence and for the division title race.

Somebody pinch me, finally my life has meaning again. Jazz by 8, Dwill and Booz both get 20/10

Thursday morning is a national holiday in Turkey, which means no school. I'll try to watch the tip-off somehow.

GO JAZZ!

I'm looking foward to watching who comes in for backup for Memo...lineup and our backup PG.. 8-)

Go Jazz!!! I want them to win first of all because Im a huge Utah Jazz fan but second of all going to put some decent money on Utah Jazz plus 6 1/2 points. I think Jazz win outright!!!

You've got it backwards. You bet against your team. That way if they win, you're so happy they won you don't mind losing the money. If they lose you at least make some cash.

He's lose 2 ways if he did that and the Jazz lost by less than 7.

I am not sure if Graham will start for the Nuggets or not. In the last preseason game, Afflalo started, and Balkman hurt his ankle in the final minute or two of that game. I haven't heard nor have I seen an update on it yet.
