Game Thread: Denver Nuggets @ Utah, Monday, November 11, 7:00 pm MST

[MVP]

This team has just been gutted by the front office.

No floor spacers. No PG depth. No bench.

The young guys are completely on their own.

Chad Ford defines the "Status: Tanking" as follows...

Tanking: The team's front office has deliberately weakened the team in an attempt to lose as many games as possible.

I was thinking about this - until Burke comes back I feel like you could make quite a profit betting heavily against the Jazz every night.

the odds makers will never see that coming against an 0-8 team...

I just started from the beginning. I'm in the 2nd episode of the 2nd season (the prequel season). Season finale of season 1 made my face melt.

It was one of the best finales. I think Andy Whitfield(rip) Spartacus was better than the new one and John Hannah's character (Batiatus) was my favourite but im sure you will like the other seasons too.

True. If this were just about "evaluating our young talent," the front office would have kept some bench production and enough quality depth to keep us in games.

Looks like Hayward came out the gates breathing fire...hopefully he's not blowing his load in the 1st half and won't come up empty in the 4th.

I guess he blew his load...

Denver realized they needed to key in on him defensively rather than leave him in single coverage with Foye.

I was so pissed when Batiatus died lol. He was my favorite character. Spartacus isn't in this season which is annoying but it's good so far.

Well, so much for my cherry-picked game thread. I fail along with the creators of the first seven game threads.

You will get used to absence of Spartacus and Gannicus as the season rolls on. Gannicus also one of my favourite a well-scripted anti-hero character.

Like a cheap pornstar.

Cut!

 

[UGLI baby]

If we don't beat New Orleans on Wednesday there is a very real chance we start off the season 0-16.

Holy **** lol
