Welcome



First off we are would like to unveil an alternative uniform we will use this season. We would like to call in Mr. Karl Malone to do the honors.

Thanks Karl and welcome back!

Now onto why we are here. Last season was another playoff birth only to lose in the first round. We are happy to make the playoffs two years in a row but upset we are not performing better once in. After the season was over we had a lil bit of work to do to fill team. With only our three core players under contract we had to find two starters and our bench.

First we were able to sign a player we have been after for a few seasons. We glad to introduce our new starting center Mr. Shawn Bradley .

We are excited to him next to Duncan to protect the rim.

We then signed Mr. Houston back to round out our starting 5.

On our bench we have players we thing will be able to help the team and be able to fill in when needed.

Next was training camp. We are excited on Mr. Wells improvement and expect for him to be a huge factor on our team this year. We will now open the floor for questions.

Christian Great, 50 Shades of Great; Are the doubts starting to creep into your mind that Tim Duncan is on the same path as the greatest player the sim league has ever seen in Michael Jordan?

Random Reporter: You seem to be serious about bringing in talent to surround Duncan. But, that comes with a price. With Bonzi ready to become an RFA next season, how concerned are you about the lux tax?

I keep hearing he was the greatest player and yes he was one of the better players in the league but not the best. I believe that title goes to either Kemp or Penny. No I do not think he is on the same path.

Im am not concerned. Bonzi will be with the Utah Jazz for the long haul.

Good question. We will have to see as the season goes who will emerge as our 6th man. Have a few vets that might take the role or maybe one of our young guys can step up and take the spot.

You're coming off a tough loss in Game 7 to the Twolves. What did you learn from that series and how it did impact your offseason?

Sports Guy Bill Simmons here, how important was it to bring in another big next to Tim? How do you think Shawn and Tim will play off of one another?

How do you think your lack of quality depth could hurt you this season? Do you have any plans to address it?

Nick Melon; Charlotte Observer: What was the thought process in bringing back Allan Houston. Was he a necessary essential key to be brought back to play with your core group of guys since you dealt Steve Smith to acquire him. Also, how would you rate the growth of Stephon Marbury so far in Utah. I imagine he's pretty focused considering the lack of social activities he can get into.
