Speaker 3: Fox joins us later. I'll be on TV with Dave
Speaker 3: tonight ten thirty five, Cam Yu, we called five questions Suspense.
Speaker 3: Our next guest was on TV earlier today and Porter,
Speaker 3: I forgot to tell you when I was at the
Speaker 3: Dallas Airport, I had a celebrity sighting. I was getting
Speaker 3: ready to board my flight. I looked to my left
Speaker 3: and our guy Van McMahon is standing there away. I
Speaker 3: took a selfie after a failed first attempt, but we
Speaker 3: got it done. And Tim McMahon joins us now on
Speaker 3: a Tuesday afternoon, Happy Tuesday, Tim, how are we doing, buddy?
Speaker 1: Howdy partners? I have left Las Vegas, which means I'm
Speaker 1: doing a lot better. That city is not my favorite
Speaker 1: destination in the world, but Summer League is always a
Speaker 1: good place to at least see a lot of people,
Speaker 1: jitch out with a lot of folks, and like I said,
Speaker 1: it was good to be there at the gym at
Speaker 1: Thomas Maxon and all that and everything else about Vegas.
Speaker 1: You guys keep.
Speaker 2: I'm with you there. I'm not a Vegas guy.
Speaker 3: Did you you did NBA today? Did you just barely
Speaker 3: land then you must have just barely landed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, No, I took the Actually I barely landed
Speaker 1: and did it yesterday. And then I'll be here, be
Speaker 1: here through Thursday show, and then I'll i go on
Speaker 1: some family vacation type of stuff.
Speaker 3: Good for you, Tim, Good for you. How was the
Speaker 3: Live Hoop Collective recording?
Speaker 2: How'd that go?
Speaker 1: It was great. We packed Old Brad Garrett's Comedy Club,
Speaker 1: had some fun. I'll tell you what, man. Folks who
Speaker 1: came out, they got a whole bunch of swag. They
Speaker 1: got like these nice like metal cups and there were hats,
Speaker 1: there were stickers or there's all kinds of swags. So
Speaker 1: good time. I appreciate it. But it came out. There
Speaker 1: was actually we had little meet and gree afterwards. There
Speaker 1: were several jazz fans.
Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, Well you're you're big around here,
Speaker 3: and you know, I feel like I might, you know,
Speaker 3: get a little credit for that, Tim. No, No, okay,
Speaker 3: fair enough, all right, moving on, moving on quickly. You
Speaker 3: did report today, at least I read it today that
Speaker 3: throughout the course of discussions you've had pertaining to the
Speaker 3: Jazz at this juncture, there really isn't a lot of
Speaker 3: momentum with the market and stuff potentially to move on
Speaker 3: from lowry marketing.
Speaker 2: Can you shed some insight on those conversations.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know you've asked me, and it's a
Speaker 1: common question, Jazz. They just unloaded three veterans and clear
Speaker 1: up playing time for young guys to position themselves, likely
Speaker 1: for another high lottery pick, and is literally marketing next.
Speaker 1: And what I can tell you is that's not the plan.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and declare Lower to be untouchable,
Speaker 1: nor have anybody that I've discussed with him. But the
Speaker 1: simple fact of the matter is the Jazz anticipate going
Speaker 1: into this season with him on the roster. They certainly
Speaker 1: can still picture him as a long term piece of
Speaker 1: the core. And like, let's just be real, he can
Speaker 1: play every game and probably play well, and they're still
Speaker 1: going to have a real tough time in the Western Conference.
Speaker 1: It's not like they're going to find their way into
Speaker 1: playing mix just because he plays well. The other thing
Speaker 1: is he probably would have to play well to restore
Speaker 1: his value to the point where any sort of trade
Speaker 1: discussions would even make sense for the Jazz because they
Speaker 1: didn't see clearly Clarkson and Collins and Sex and Ast
Speaker 1: parts of the future. You know, they do still think
Speaker 1: marketing can be So those guys they moved out to
Speaker 1: make room for younger guys. If marketing gets moved, it
Speaker 1: would have to be because the return would be of
Speaker 1: such value that they felt like it was a move
Speaker 1: that they had to make. And again, I think he
Speaker 1: would have to play very well, you know, as well
Speaker 1: as he has in the past to make that even
Speaker 1: a remote possibility. Now, the contract's interesting because for teams
Speaker 1: trading for him, it's a hindrance, it's a deterrent. For
Speaker 1: the Jazz, it's fine because, let's be honest, you've got
Speaker 1: to pay somebody. There's a minimum salary floor. It's basically
Speaker 1: him Nurgats and a whole bunch of rookie deals, and
Speaker 1: so carrying that contract on the Jazz books is no
Speaker 1: problem whatsoever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's also awesome. I wonder though, so he's
Speaker 2: twenty eight.
Speaker 3: Is his birthdays in May, so he'll be twenty eight
Speaker 3: throughout the majority of next season, turn twenty nine as
Speaker 3: we turn our calendars to spring. So if we do
Speaker 3: a little matthe or tim based off of what the typical,
Speaker 3: you know, the best portion the prime of an NBA
Speaker 3: player's career, Lowry is right in the middle of it
Speaker 3: and actually maybe a couple of years left, and what
Speaker 3: would be considered a prime portion of Lowry Marketing's career.
Speaker 3: Is it realistic to expect the Jazz could actually build
Speaker 3: something that looks very competitive while Lowry is still very good?
Speaker 1: I would say it is optimistic to expect that, And
Speaker 1: I think that they've got to play this year out
Speaker 1: to get a better feel for whether that kind of
Speaker 1: optimism is merited. And that's going to be based in
Speaker 1: large part on, hey, do these young guys show something
Speaker 1: this year? You know, are there signs that you've got
Speaker 1: at the foundation pieces already on the roster aside from
Speaker 1: market and Walker? Yeah, so, and then obviously the other
Speaker 1: thing is what kind of lottery luck do they get?
Speaker 1: But Again, I'm not sitting here declaring that Larry Markinen
Speaker 1: is in Utah to stay. I'm just saying there's not
Speaker 1: any sort of movement or desire to you know, ship
Speaker 1: him out right now to continue what's obviously been a
Speaker 1: youth movement.
Speaker 3: I wonder based off of conversations you've had, I mean,
Speaker 3: I mean, ultimately, of course you're the guy to asked
Speaker 3: this because you have good relationships with this front office.
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that Austin Inge views marketing differently
Speaker 3: than his dad, Danny or Justin Xanik, but it felt
Speaker 3: like for a minute there was maybe some momentum in
Speaker 3: the direction of, you know, trying to maybe move this
Speaker 3: thing forward in a way that they're no longer trying
Speaker 3: to do under Austin Inge as the primary decision maker.
Speaker 3: Have you been able to ascertain whether or not there
Speaker 3: is a different directional ethos with Austin in charge juxtaposed
Speaker 3: to his dad and Justin Zanik before the hiring.
Speaker 1: I would say that the clear thing here is that
Speaker 1: they decided that there are lottery odds were going to
Speaker 1: be based on young players being put in real situations
Speaker 1: where they had a chance to develop as opposed to
Speaker 1: tinkering with the injury report and the rotation and those
Speaker 1: sort of things. As far outside of that, as far
Speaker 1: as like massive shits in the philosophy the front office,
Speaker 1: I don't know about that, but you know, as far
Speaker 1: as I think there's a very clear eyed view of
Speaker 1: just how much work there is to be done here.
Speaker 1: You know, somebody said to me kind of telling a
Speaker 1: lot of truth and jest, they said, hey, we're just
Speaker 1: a couple of pieces away. It's just a number one
Speaker 1: and the number two, you know, and you know, obviously
Speaker 1: it was a joke. But the point, like, I don't
Speaker 1: think anybody there says, hey, Lowry's is a superstar, you know,
Speaker 1: this is an MVP. Can't but they think he's a
Speaker 1: very good player who could be a major piece of
Speaker 1: a good team. There's just a ton of work to
Speaker 1: be done for the Jazz to be in a position
Speaker 1: to be a good team. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And one of the reasons I asked the question is
Speaker 3: Jordan Clarkson, John Collins, Colin Sexton all traded. And I
Speaker 3: wonder if and I'm just thinking out loud here, I
Speaker 3: wonder if Austin was just like, look, we are just
Speaker 3: going to move them even if we can't get what
Speaker 3: we perceive to be fair value, because you know, ultimately
Speaker 3: I have no idea what was offered for any of
Speaker 3: these three when it was Xanak and Danny Ainge as
Speaker 3: opposed to Austin Inge. But there's an argument to be
Speaker 3: made that they just kind of went all right, like
Speaker 3: obviously it was a byoul of Clarkson and they didn't
Speaker 3: get a ton of value for either Collins or Sexton
Speaker 3: or do you think as a group they were just like,
Speaker 3: we just got to move them no matter what the
Speaker 3: return is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it was clear that that was clear. They
Speaker 1: went from, hey, you know, we've got to get value
Speaker 1: for these guys if we're going to trade them too,
Speaker 1: We've got to just you know, clear these guys off
Speaker 1: the roster, play the young guys. And you know, I
Speaker 1: mean nobody has used this term, but I will say
Speaker 1: tank organically, right, tank because you're just not good enough
Speaker 1: to compete playing a bunch of guys who are in
Speaker 1: their first, second, or third years in the league. But
Speaker 1: they know they didn't get value. I mean, they came
Speaker 1: out even on second round picks, right. They gave one
Speaker 1: up in the Sex and deal which honestly, I'm still
Speaker 1: kind of scratching my head about. And then they got
Speaker 1: one of the comsy I think the most valuable thing
Speaker 1: that they've gotten in all that roster or something, aside
Speaker 1: from clearing the deck minutes wise, is the trade exception,
Speaker 1: which we'll see, you know, they've got they've got a
Speaker 1: year to use that. Obviously, you can use it in
Speaker 1: a lot of different ways, that trade exception. You know,
Speaker 1: maybe that is something that eventually is used to bring
Speaker 1: a you know, core type of player on board. But
Speaker 1: aside from that, no, they you know, these guys as
Speaker 1: we'll just moved off the roster, they weren't traded for
Speaker 1: like major returns obviously.
Speaker 3: So when it comes to the summer league stuff, what
Speaker 3: is the buzz or maybe that's the wrong way to
Speaker 3: put it, the conversation surrounding the load management being moved
Speaker 3: from the regular season to summer league, Like it's you know,
Speaker 3: every night you get home and you're like, arond'am gonna
Speaker 3: check out some summer league and then boom, there's no
Speaker 3: Cooper Flag, there's no Ace Bailey. Dylan Harper played last night,
Speaker 3: but he didn't play to start, Like, what are what
Speaker 3: are the conversations around the league concerning the decision making
Speaker 3: of teams to sit the players that everybody wants to
Speaker 3: watch play.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, the shitting like the top overall pickoff
Speaker 1: for a couple of games has become a pretty common thing.
Speaker 1: It's certainly the trend. Ace Bailey's got a banged up hit.
Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna, like, you're not gonna push
Speaker 1: guys to play through injuries during Summer League. I don't
Speaker 1: think it was like some sort of plan and he
Speaker 1: just played a couple of games and then gets shut down.
Speaker 1: You know, they would love to see him get some
Speaker 1: more action, but you know you're not going to ask
Speaker 1: the guy to play hurt during the summer league situation.
Speaker 1: So you know, yeah, I just wouldn't. I wouldn't look
Speaker 1: at as Bailey sitting at as any sort of like
Speaker 1: indication of a load management plan.
Speaker 3: What During your conversations with Jazz Brass, can you share
Speaker 3: their thoughts on the early experience with Ace, both on
Speaker 3: the ground here and now in Vegas with the Summer
Speaker 3: League team.
Speaker 1: I mean, since Ace reported to Utah, they have been
Speaker 1: pleased with his approach, They've been pleased with his work ethic.
Speaker 1: You know, they've found him to be a coachable kid.
Speaker 1: You know, somebody who is willing to listen, who is
Speaker 1: eager to work, who has been a good teammate. Look
Speaker 1: to forty eight hours from the time he was drafted
Speaker 1: until you know, the time he agreed to come to Utah.
Speaker 1: I don't think we're great. I think it was a
Speaker 1: shame that the kid kind of entered the league with
Speaker 1: that sort of situation that at least temporarily smudged his reputation.
Speaker 1: But ultimately he got to Utah, he's gotten to work,
Speaker 1: and he's an eighteen year old kid who you know,
Speaker 1: if you want to put a positive spin on it,
Speaker 1: he's an eighteen year old kid who has a track
Speaker 1: record of listening to the adults who were in his ear,
Speaker 1: the adults that are in his ear moving forward and
Speaker 1: be guys like Will Hardy. You hope those are the
Speaker 1: people that he's listening to for sure.
Speaker 3: Now over to Walt wal Clayton Junior, and you know, look,
Speaker 3: I think there are some things to like about Isaiah,
Speaker 3: but his summer league experience so far looks very much
Speaker 3: like his regular season experience here in Salt Lake last year.
Speaker 3: He had twelve dimes last night. He just cannot hit
Speaker 3: the broadside of a barn.
Speaker 2: Yeah me, give me your thought.
Speaker 3: And Walt's older than Isaiah, and he feels him just
Speaker 3: more well rounded to me, even though he's going to
Speaker 3: be a rookie. How do you think the point guard
Speaker 3: battle is going to play out?
Speaker 1: I think it's an open battle. I mean, you nailed
Speaker 1: it with Callier. The point guard is a hard position
Speaker 1: to play in the NBA. If you can't shoot, and
Speaker 1: in the year twenty twenty five, if they can go
Speaker 1: under every screen, if they don't have to respect your
Speaker 1: jump shot man as as well as you can do
Speaker 1: other things, that's it's really tough. It's a glaring weakness.
Speaker 1: I think wall Clayton's going to have an opportunity, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, to compete for not just minutes, but maybe
Speaker 1: even a starting role immediately. I mean there's a reason
Speaker 1: that they, you know, they gave up what they did
Speaker 1: just to move up a few spots and get him.
Speaker 1: They really liked him, they like her. They they've seen
Speaker 1: from him. You know, as you said, he's a guy
Speaker 1: with experience. He's a guy with championship experience in college.
Speaker 1: It wouldn't shock me at all if he ends up
Speaker 1: being the Jazz starting point guard next season.
Speaker 3: Any any insight on and I've got a little here
Speaker 3: just talking to some people down to the organization, and
Speaker 3: I feel like they're very split on Kyante and his
Speaker 3: future not just with the Jazz but in the NBA.
Speaker 3: And there are certainly things about his individual offensive game
Speaker 3: that stand.
Speaker 2: Out in a very positive way.
Speaker 3: But any insight on how the Jazz view this year
Speaker 3: for Kiante and then the future of him both with
Speaker 3: the organization and as a pro I.
Speaker 1: Mean, clearly it's a critical year for him, especially when
Speaker 1: it comes to the future of the organization. I mean,
Speaker 1: after this year, they're going to have a decision to
Speaker 1: make in terms of whether they want to try to
Speaker 1: get an extension done with him. You know, he's got
Speaker 1: to show that there is a consistent commitment to competing
Speaker 1: on the defensive end. If he doesn't do that, he's
Speaker 1: going to end up probably the dog outs. It's just
Speaker 1: the simple fact of the matter. You know, Will Hardy,
Speaker 1: while they're rebuilding, is trying to make sure that there
Speaker 1: are you know, basic minimum requirements and competing on the
Speaker 1: defensive end is obviously one of those. That's an area
Speaker 1: that he is not, you know, meant the standard way
Speaker 1: too often during during his career, and then you know, offensly,
Speaker 1: there's no question he is talented. I don't think that
Speaker 1: he is given indications that he is a point guard
Speaker 1: in the league. I think he's probably more of a
Speaker 1: bench bucketgetner type of guy. You know, optimistically had Jordan
Speaker 1: Clarkson type, a Lou Williams type, you know, one of
Speaker 1: those type of guys you know, but again, there's been
Speaker 1: flashes there, but there's not been consistency at that end either.
Speaker 1: So critically your form.
Speaker 3: Any insight on the progress of Taylor Taylor Hendrix, who
Speaker 3: continues to be kind of this unknown commodity based off
Speaker 3: the injury last year and a lot of hope because
Speaker 3: a lot of the young players have not popped the
Speaker 3: way we were hoping, but Taylor is just kind of
Speaker 3: the guy that people are waiting to see. Do you
Speaker 3: have any insight on his recovery process.
Speaker 1: I don't want to put out an act information, not
Speaker 1: one hundred percent certain, but I believe that all all
Speaker 1: signs are that he's going to be cleared for training
Speaker 1: camp again, though I want to I want to be
Speaker 1: careful with what I say there. You know you're asking
Speaker 1: me obviously live, and I'd like to double check that
Speaker 1: before declaring anything that you know is firm fair enough.
Speaker 3: Let's move over to Cody, who had a couple of
Speaker 3: decent games, did not look good last night. You know,
Speaker 3: the body still needs to come along, he still needs
Speaker 3: to get stronger. He had a couple of free throws
Speaker 3: to basically win the game last night.
Speaker 2: He missed both of them.
Speaker 3: And you know, one of the top ten picks on
Speaker 3: the roster along with Taylor and obviously Ace.
Speaker 2: Is a top ten pick.
Speaker 3: Now, uh, I'll ask you the same question I asked
Speaker 3: about Keante.
Speaker 2: What's the organizational belief in what Cody could be here? Two?
Speaker 1: So I've actually talked a lot more to like scouts
Speaker 1: from other teams about Cody Williams, and I have people
Speaker 1: with the Jazz. So I will answer your question indirectly
Speaker 1: by saying, you know, telling you what I think the
Speaker 1: perception is around the league is, and the way I
Speaker 1: would put it is, he's a concept of a player
Speaker 1: right now. You know you see the potential. You see Okay, hey,
Speaker 1: six foot nine, great link, fluid, athleticism, like what has
Speaker 1: he actually shown you other the measurables and athleticism, you know,
Speaker 1: the handles, the struggle, the shots not quite there. He's
Speaker 1: not as impactful defensively as you would want to be.
Speaker 1: And you're kind of you know, this is as a
Speaker 1: lottery pick playing Summer League after his rookie year. You
Speaker 1: want those guys to be pretty consistently, if not dominant,
Speaker 1: at least forces in that environment. And it's you know,
Speaker 1: we're kind of waiting for the signs to appear that
Speaker 1: that he's on the right path. It doesn't mean if
Speaker 1: not going to happen. But I'm not going to sit
Speaker 1: here and tell you that people around the league who
Speaker 1: are looking at him him as a guy who is
Speaker 1: uh declaring that he's going to be an impact player
Speaker 1: anytime soon.
Speaker 3: There is one bright spot for the Summer League team.
Speaker 3: It's been Philipowski, who was awesome last night and really
Speaker 3: has been awesome all Summer League long year two.
Speaker 2: Kyle Philipowski.
Speaker 3: And you know, to be fair to the front office,
Speaker 3: if we're going to talk about Taylor as an incomplete
Speaker 3: and coding not popping, they may have hit the jackpod.
Speaker 3: As far as the value goes with where they with
Speaker 3: where they drafted Kyle Philipowski. You got market In, you
Speaker 3: got Kessler, you got Ace, you know you have Taylor.
Speaker 3: But based off of what you've seen from Kyle, where
Speaker 3: do you think he fits here two with the Jazz?
Speaker 1: Yeah? And Philipowski is absolutely having the kind of summer
Speaker 1: that you want a guy to have going into his
Speaker 1: second season in the NBA. I mean, he has been
Speaker 1: dominant and look, man, one reason it made sense to
Speaker 1: move John Collins and not get much in return is
Speaker 1: because you want to see Philipowski play and you want
Speaker 1: Philipowski to have minutes in a role that are his
Speaker 1: And you know, I think the big question on him
Speaker 1: is he a four? Is he a five? He's going
Speaker 1: to get the chance to prove this year that he's
Speaker 1: an NBA power forward. You know, you've seen the face
Speaker 1: of games. You know, you've seen him shoot the ball
Speaker 1: a little bit. He seem to be able to put
Speaker 1: it on the floor, you know, and then finally can'ty
Speaker 1: anchor a defense that obviously there's a lot of doubts there.
Speaker 1: But he's going to play significant minutes for the Jazz
Speaker 1: this season at power forward and have a chance to
Speaker 1: prove that that's his home in the NBA.
Speaker 3: I hesitate to even ask this because it feels like, hey,
Speaker 3: it's July and we need to force our way to
Speaker 3: talk about Lebron all the time. But is any of
Speaker 3: this trade stuff real? Like I've seen odds that the
Speaker 3: MAVs are like in on it, is any of this
Speaker 3: real with Lebron the Lakers.
Speaker 1: My anticipation, and I've been wrong before, My anticipation is
Speaker 1: Lebron will be at the Lakers training camp. You know.
Speaker 1: I so like, just like you you asked about the Mavericks,
Speaker 1: just look at that Sally, look at that fifty two
Speaker 1: point six million dollars salary, and then start punching in
Speaker 1: trades that would work just from a math perspective for
Speaker 1: the Mavericks. And let's talk about how much of their
Speaker 1: rotation they're gutting for a potential retirement tour. So never
Speaker 1: say never in the NBA. But I think it's awfully
Speaker 1: difficult to execute a trade for Lebron, and it's going
Speaker 1: to make sense for all the parties involved. And I'm
Speaker 1: talking about the Lakers, the team that's trading for him,
Speaker 1: and then for Lebron, who obviously has no trade clause,
Speaker 1: woudn't have to approve any deal. But like you know,
Speaker 1: for the Mavericks, are you giving up Daniel Gafford and TJ.
Speaker 1: Washington and you know, another rotation player or two to
Speaker 1: bring Lebron in for maybe a year? Ronnie is certainly
Speaker 1: with a one year guaranteed. I don't think I would.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't either.
Speaker 3: But since we're in the space, let me ask you
Speaker 3: about his kid. But are you seeing things from Brownny
Speaker 3: in summer League that indicate maybe he's playing his way
Speaker 3: into being like a legitimate rotational guy.
Speaker 1: I think rotational guy is strong, you know, I think
Speaker 1: that for a number fifty five overall pick, he's having
Speaker 1: a fine second summer league. You know, I just hit
Speaker 1: like I get it. He's Lebron James Son. There's going
Speaker 1: to be a spotlight on him, unlike any second round
Speaker 1: pick ever in the history of the game, or at
Speaker 1: least any unproven second round pick in the history of
Speaker 1: the game. I just prefer to judge him as a
Speaker 1: late second round pick who's trying to carve out a
Speaker 1: niche in the NBA, and not the son of one
Speaker 1: of the best players of all time.
Speaker 3: Before I set you loose, I will ask you about Cooper,
Speaker 3: since we did see him for a hot minute. Your
Speaker 3: takeaways from Cooper flag in the summer League and the
Speaker 3: way the maps kind of view this moving forward.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they tested them. You know, they put
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands. They had him bring the
Speaker 1: ball up on a freaquent basis for the first time
Speaker 1: in his life. Basically, you know, there are some struggles,
Speaker 1: there are some good signs. You know, even though it
Speaker 1: was only two games, he did get better and more
Speaker 1: comfortable offensively throughout the course of his brief little summer
Speaker 1: league extint. And you know, I don't know, like I
Speaker 1: don't know if he's going to be like an effective
Speaker 1: primary option in the half court as an eighteen year
Speaker 1: old or even as a twenty three or twenty four
Speaker 1: year old. If the Mavericks have relative to health luck,
Speaker 1: he won't have to be. You know, They've got two
Speaker 1: guys who would be better suited for that role. One
Speaker 1: unfortunately he's not playing the first half season in Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 1: But you know, Antony Davis will be their primary option.
Speaker 1: But he's a guy he can impact a game in
Speaker 1: a lot of different ways. Even if he's not you know,
Speaker 1: scoring twenty six you know, twenty eight points per game.
Speaker 1: I mean, he can be a very impactful defensive player.
Speaker 1: You know he is a good passer. You know he
Speaker 1: can rebound. I thought that the best moment of the
Speaker 1: Summer League for him was when he came over from
Speaker 1: the weak side the swat that prevented a layup and
Speaker 1: then pushes it in transition, draws three defenders and hits
Speaker 1: Ryan themhard for a wide open what ended up being
Speaker 1: game winning three pointer. That to me, is much more
Speaker 1: of what you can expect from Cooper Flag than you know,
Speaker 1: Ben thinking thirty one points against the Spurs is going
Speaker 1: to be something you see on a frequent basis during
Speaker 1: his teenage years.
Speaker 3: All right, Tim, will enjoy that vacation and time off
Speaker 3: you've earned it. Appreciate the time well, Chat soon, I
Speaker 3: appreciate brother. Tim McMahon covers the NBA for ESPN covers
Speaker 3: the Utah Jazz for ESPN reported earlier today that the
Speaker 3: Jazz are unlikely to trade Lowry market in prior to
Speaker 3: the start of the season. It's interesting to consider Lowry
Speaker 3: in his age. He is twenty eight his birthdays in May,
Speaker 3: so he'll be twenty eighth for the majority of next year.
Speaker 3: Prime of your career, you know, twenty five to thirty
Speaker 3: ish thereabouts. So can the Jazz build something competitive while
Speaker 3: Lowry is still in his prime? Tim stops spotted ity
Speaker 3: courtesy of our friends at Utah Elitesers. Right now, with
Speaker 3: summer here, it's the perfect time to be introducing our
