Let's Get This Party Started!!!!!!

Well, the season is just around the corner, and things are looking good in Jazzland. Deron Williams has had a busy summer with the Olympics, charity events, and basically just being The Man here in Utah. He has risen to the challenge and become the leader of this Utah Jazz squad. Carlos Boozer has been in the middle of nationwide trade chatter, but he is disregarding it for now and playing well in the preseason. Mehmet Okur and Andrei Kirilenko are looking good; both of them seem to be playing with energy and enthusiasm. Ronnie Brewer is a little bigger, stronger, and still a major hustler. Jerry Sloan is still alive. All the ingredients are there for a big year for the Utah Jazz!!

Of course, everybody wants to give 100 percent to start out the new season. The question is: will it last? Will AK and Memo still play with this much heart? Can Boozer and Williams stay healthy all year? What will happen with the young players (Ronnie Price, Kyrylo Fesenko, Morris Almond, etc.)? It's almost time for the regular season to kick off. The Jazz start out against the Denver Nuggets on October 29th, so until then -- enjoy the preseason!!!!!!
