  1. I find it interesting that you didn't mention what Walker said after he mentioned that he was frustrated that a deal wasn't done with the Jazz. He quickly that he loves being here in Utah and wants to be here. You also didn't mention anything that Austin said about Walker and how they like Walker and hope that he is apart of the Jazz for a long time. Sure Walker is frustrated that a deal wasn't done, that's understandable. For him I'm sure that he would like to have the security of having a deal done now and also not have to worry about it during the season or the off-season in free agency. The fact though is that the Jazz are being smart about not extending Walker at this time from a business standpoint. I don't think that they have a problem or will have a problem paying Walker 30 million or whatever it will be because Walker can be that impactful for them going forward. The smart thing about what the Jazz are doing by not signing him to an extension now is that they can save themselves a good 15 million perhaps on a cap hold for free agency come this next summer. That's just smart business. The Jazz hold all the cards mostly when it comes to his future and they know it. Next free agency they could likely be in a position to be able to spend money to sign a free agent or two that could help propel the team forward in a big way. By not signing Walker now that keeps that option and door open because let's say that they do sign a free agent next summer, then after they can sign Walker to whatever number they agree on and still go over the cap. Also what Tony reported can be true as well. The Jazz have been in contact with Walker and his representatives and have communicated with them on their plans financially and for next summer so things can also be good between the parties even though Walker might be frustrated. Oh yeah by the way did you also here what Austin said about Lauri Markkanen and what Lauri said again about being here in Utah. Yeah it's highly unlikely that Lauri is going to get traded. He'll be here for a long time. Thanks for the show! Keep up the good content!

  2. My ace bailey moment was when him and Walter Clayton took a picture during summer league and he said oh yeah that’s a championship team 😃

  3. The Lakers have nothing for us… Nothing we want, we don't want 2 sh*tty 1st Round picks. That won't amount to anything probably two of the worst 1st round picks we could get.

  4. My Jazz Starting lineup

    Keyonte George PG
    Ace Bailey SG
    Lauri Markanen SF
    Kyle Filoposki PF
    Walker (the Sheriff) Kessler
    BoOm! 🫳🎤

  5. Give him a contract next summer so we can sign somebody in FA. He knows that, im sure they arnt keeping him in the dark. Dude seemed to really want to be in Utah though, all of the players did, especially Ace Bailey surprisingly lol. So im not too concerned. I am more excited for this season than I have been since Spida was the main man.

  6. No, the most interesting quote was that Isaiah Collier for two off-seasons now has said he hasn't been working on his shot and he thinks it's great where it is. Absolutely ridiculous. I hope Walt Clayton Jr takes his spot.

  7. The Lakers wouldn't have 55 mil just by losing LeBron. They are over the cap. Plus they need to pay AR and sign other guys next summer
