we deliver it each and every day here in the lockdown podcast Network your team every day thank you to the every dayers to join us each and every day on the program all right let me start on one thing that maybe is a little different than what you’d expect I just want to give a huge tip of the hat to the organization and I’m a part of it but I’m not really like these people go to most of the employees go to the office every day I don’t have an office this is it um I I I I’m not in the grind so I’m not patting myself on the back I didn’t do anything I showed up for three days called the games I got the pleasure but considering the fact that Utah gets a hockey team on whatever date that was for one when uh when the team bought the team which is I think May 9th right um and they’re going to tip off like their first game somewhere around like September 9th or like I don’t know what the exact preseason first game is but it’s right like the regular season first game is like October 9th okay so let’s go with October let’s give them that so they may May 9th so June July August September setember this organization without a lot of new people in 120 days is putting together an entire professional sports franchise and having it ready to play in an arena selling tickets everything TV broadcast everything and in the middle of that they put on a three-day summer league exhibition so that we can enjoy basketball I mean seriously it’s incredible so Jonathan Reinhardt who runs this thing and all of his staff who are all not in a bad way but in a truthful way being pushed to the brink like I mean this is a example of like great entrepreneurialship in a professional sports franchise where Ryan Smith had a vision got it done and then looked at the staff and like okay execute like okay go to work get it done it’s crazy it’s a tribute to Smith that he gets it done tribute that he has people that are willing to do it and he has a tribute to the people that actually do it it’s incredible so for them to put on a summer full three-day I mean like there’s nothing like short about the effort of Summer League it’s actually harder than the regular season because you have three other teams in town you have to take care of and make sure it executes correctly and you’ve got longer stints of games so tip of the hat to everyone in the Jazz organization that gave us the enjoyment of three nights of Summer League I absolutely loved it it’s a gift it’s wonderful to have it it’s super it’s great fun to be in the arena and to see people and to feel the game and to hoop and all that stuff so thank you so much there let’s just start there because I really we don’t you know we see the organization as our vehicle to entertainment and we pay a lot of money or support it in various ways and then we see that the organization’s job is to go get us players to watch like we never talk about the fact that they actually put on the whole event and I get it like but that one’s special not everyone’s doing that one so all right um here’s my general take of three days of summer league I think you guys all know like I’m trying to get down to Vegas I I don’t love summer league in the valuation sense I I just think it gets totally overblown you’re going against non-nba players and you can just make a lot of mistakes and you’ve heard me say it every day Josh Shelby or Damien L the everyday understands that they were they were co-mvps the same year in summer league Josh Shelby and Damen Lillard one played three games one’s going to the Hall of Fame like it’s just not the greatest but you can take a lot from what you’re seeing my general take is twofold no real surprises and that’s good right like I didn’t suddenly say oh gosh Cody Williams Oh gosh Isaiah ker oh gosh Kyle Philip like no big surprises negatively or positive nobody was way better than anticipated and nobody was like oh dear God like that right oh no someone hasn’t developed at all like that there wasn’t any of that I will say in this maybe this is unfair I I feel like and I thought Walker played really hard and I thought Isaiah played pretty hard so maybe this isn’t everyone but I also just thought all of them could play harder with more detail more urgency and more focus and that might just being being 19 it might just be being 20 it might just be being 21 or it might be that I’m just an a-hole I just that’s my takeaway this group is like they just collectively have got to play harder now my theory on playing hard in the NBA is you begin to play hard when you have to when your other choice is to go home right I’ve talked about this before with we had that team of Ricky Rubio and Jay Crowder and a bunch of those guys and all of them were kind of at a stage of their career where like if they didn’t play hard they went home and then we went and got Mike connley and buan bogdanovich and I remember who else and better players Rudy Gay and George Nang was a play harder and those guys are so talented and so good they don’t actually have to play hard every night they’re just so good that they get through without playing hard and that the trick was going to be that that team suddenly had to play hard I remember going coffee with Quinn that summer and him was like what do you think I was like well you have to figure out how to get him a play hard he’s like what do you mean I like that’s what I mean I turned out to be true the these guys are all so gifted keante Taylor I I mean I’m not trying to single anyone out all of them are so gifted and even you know in the summer league they’re better than everybody else on the floor almost everybody else on the floor I just think they need to play harder with more detail there’s just plays like I could zero in on play I don’t want to throw anyone at the bus it’s not worth it on Sumer leak just where lack of focus lack of detail lack of urgency lack of effort like that’s what I think the number one skill all of them have to learn I mean Cody Williams I’m gonna have to figure out he looks so casual out there it’s all there it’s exactly what I thought about him when we drafted him it’s all there all the pieces are there it’s kind of crazy how many pieces are there and what’s possible and I’m just as excited about him was when he was with was a 10th pick but it’s super interesting to me that like when I called around before the draft of people and said is there any chance he gets to 10 and people said yeah his workouts aren’t great he doesn’t seem like he’s got a high-end motor and like oh oh oh I saw it now I don’t know if he doesn’t have a high-end motor if he’s just so atically skilled that everything looks easy and so it all looks like it’s just being casually done we going have to learn Keys kind of the same way his body’s just so beautiful and just moves so easily and so without like it’s not hard for him none of it look hard for key nothing looks hard for key so you got like if you look it says hard you probably play harder right so that was kind of my number one takeaway and we’ll go and I’ll walk through each of the players um and what I saw but my overall takeway is no big surprises which is good and no big surprises the other way either no one’s way better than I thought but I do like and I think it’s a stage can we get you to play a little harder can you get to understand how hard you have to play and can we get the details like there’s a play on each one of them their resumes right now which will be on film which they’ll show them which are just kind of like oh dear game on the line not getting back defensively game on the line lofting a pass that gets intercepted dribbling off your leg not just not putting out the like boom like I think its age I think it’s the where they are I think it’s their development stage but that was my takeaway just a little harder and what I think’s interesting is these guys have to self-motivate this because they’re going to get their time and they’re going to be on the floor and they’re going to be on the floor and have to learn it themselves I mean this is where will talks a lot about you can’t let losing just seep into your culture and become a part of what you do because indirectly what he’s really saying I think is you can’t let it just become that it’s okay to lose and not play as hard as you have to and that’s probably our more bigest battle as the franchise all right I’m gonna break down each of the players individually as we continue um we’ll start with ke and Walker and then we’ll go to Taylor and then we’ll go to the Rooks um and what we saw out of three days out of them and we’ll try to do it in a manner that’s not being over like it’s three days it’s 120 Minutes it’s it’s like let’s it’s all we got for right now but let’s not go crazy with it is what I’m saying but that’s next coming up here on locked on Jazz Today’s Show is brought to you by our friends over at game

every day quick recap of what’s going on in the league boom boom boom boom boom there for you lock the NBA make it your second listen today all right let’s start with key just too good for summer league like he’s the best player on the floor by a mile he’s got a hesitation on his dribble he’s got control of the ball he’s got control of his body he’s stronger he’s quicker he’s faster he’s just better than everybody else on the floor like no question has been his whole career it’s why he was who he was as a cruit was that way at Baylor for most of the time he’s just better than his shot selection was way better in game two in game one one that he played the key for him this season is going to be finding where his shots come from and I think we’re beginning to see it kind of with this left hand drive put the shoulder in someone gain the contact in a five little six foot floater what I did like was the play where he actually went all the way to the basket I thought he had kind of just stopped even trying and the the C opened all the way up for him on one and he went all the way to the basket and if he can start to make that decision it’s a hard decision it’s one you have to make it kind of the dotted line and maybe maybe even earlier of when okay I’m playing off the contact into my little floater from six feet out which is not a particularly high percent shot or I’m lowering the shoulder the whole way to get to the contact to get to the foul or I’m gonna be able to get all the way to the rack here um and I’m gonna do it right I thought those were those were really that was a nice little sequence of things he took over the game he had a bounce in his step he was the best player on the floor he did exactly what he was supposed to do it’s kind of awesome um the two turnovers late in the fourth were brutal like you just one was a drive to on the right side came around the Baseline got caught in the air had nowhere to throw it threw it away back above the free throw line fast break the other way and the other was kind of a I couldn’t figure out what the set they were trying to get into and he got caught in between through a high lofting pass from 40 feet away from the basket they got intercepted at 34 five feet to 40 feet and it’s a fast break the other way they simply will lose you basketball games those two plays will lose you basketball games if you do them in the fourth quarter guaranteed to lose you basketball gam if it’s close because it’s you just gave away two four-point swings if you do them regularly in the game I think you’ll lose the basketball game too Rick Carlile used to say if you committed I think it was three above the break turnovers in a game three or four you Fatal turnovers he called you lose every time it’s probably true like if you just think about that every possession is worth a point back and forth and I give you a point basically by us not taking a shot probably give you about 1. two and you get a dunk on the other side which is a 2.0 possession guaranteed instead of your so it’s a two-point swing and you do that four times a night that’s an eight-point swing on a game like that’s that’s it that’s it so that’s a little bit of my details play harder play Focus thing like those two turnovers were brutal and disconcerting like if you know Isaiah CER did a lot of the ball handling in game one late in the game and Cody Williams started doing the ball handling in game two late in the game so for key there’s got to be better decision- making late in the game but I thought the other stuff he’s just the best player on the floor super cool play between key and Walkers they try to learn each other Walker’s pick setting so much better than it was a year ago um but there was a neat play where they’re now playing Walker out in the five out set with the ball in his hands and handing off and doing a bunch of things and trying to you know open up the floor and it’s a good strategy it’s interesting too it’s kind of sabonis Draymond ask in the sense that nobody comes out with Draymond or sabonis so then if they can do a hand off and they set the pick correctly there’s no help Defender because they’re laying back because they don’t worry about your shooting and it actually opens up either a driving lane or off the bounce or off the handoff three so when we get into the regular season if you’re doing that with Walker and he’s got it and the big man’s dropped back in the lane and then key comes off in a pick and Walker can learn how to set that pick then Key’s wide open for a shot it’s where Kevin herder got a lot of his stuff in Sacramento it’s where Klay got a lot of his stuff Klay killed Rudy it’s when Klay used to kill Rudy because Rudy would be dropped back on Draymond and then clay would come off the pick and Draymond would pick off whoever’s guarding clay and Clay would be wide open so ke uh there was a really neat play where the Walker and and key are kind of building that together and trying to learn it and Walker points to key like hey give it to me and you go there and he drops it into Walker and then Walker bounces it it’s a little give and go for a 14 foot pullup jumper and you’re begin to see them communicate that’s the only reason I think they might play in Vegas if Walker key playing Vegas I’m certain they’ll play every minute together I would be stunned if they I’ll be a little surprised if they play in Vegas but if they play in Vegas and they aren’t playing all the same minutes I’ll be really stunned because the whole reason for key and Walker to play in Vegas was to to be build that relationship more between the two of them I thought Walker was really good I’m on team Walker like I don’t know if there’s team not Walker but there’s just been a lot of discussion about Walker he’s kind of like when we’re done talking about Lowry we start talking about Walker as a jazz fan right now I’m on team Walker second in the league in Block shots top three in the league in Rim defense with 30 in the league in defense in the dude defends the rim like let’s let’s figure out how to use him he’s offensively limited I got it we’re trying to figure it out with a handoff game I’m still on team Walker I I didn’t last year wasn’t great I’m not ignoring it I also not sure if I’m I’m not sure that Walker like I’m not sure that Walker was fair to the team and the team was fair to Walker last year I just thought it was bad all the way around like Walker lost his starting job due to an injury due to John Collins starting at Center like I’m pissed if I’m Walker and then Walker kind of acted like he’s pissed and then I’m pissed if I’m the team at Walker so like just was a bad deal hopefully everyone’s over it I just thought Walker was really good this whole time I thought he protected the rim impacted the game altered the game early by being there in the middle was better again to the same point of Keon was just better than everyone else on the floor because he should be um I thought he imped just a ton of possessions I thought he Tim lome was on the broadcast last night for Ron Boon did a great job of just kind of continually mentioning how much he ran the floor to open up possessions for other people I thought he looked pretty comfortable with the ball in his hands like there weren’t disasters there’s one or two turnovers where he tried something but there weren’t disastrous turnovers I think he had four assists um last night I I thought I I’m on team Walker like and the three should have gone but I don’t want I don’t care if he shoots the three like if he can turn it take that three Once a Night twice a night when they drop all the way back and he takes it and eventually becomes 30 you know there’s seven you’re playing the handoff game there’s seven seconds on the shot clock they’re dropped all the way back take the three as your other play at this point is now finding key letting him go ISO which is about a point eight point per possession with seven on the shot clock if not less possibly a turnover going the other way I’d rather have Walker shoot a wide open three frankly if he makes 25% of them it’s 0 75% so if he makes 30 it’s a win I I I’m I’m I thought this was really good to have good tip of the hat to the organization to have Walker play Summer leag thought it went well I thought Taylor I’m trying to figure Taylor out first thing I think his body looks better we’re seeing him grow up in beggar I think you have to remember like on Taylor still the same thing we talked about last year Keith sn’s GNA be an NBA player since he’s like nine Taylor I think it’s known he’s going to be an NBA player for like 18 months and I still feel that about him like he’s I think he’s still just trying to tap into like how good could he be like when his athletic instincts just take over it’s kind of awesome defensively he makes a play he does various things like that it’s pretty awesome he hit his Corner thre so we think his Knight was better I try to not evaluate Bak stun makes or misses because it’s such a four shots it’s such a sample size right one for four versus three for four makes the Knight feel totally different but frankly over the course of a year like that’s just going to happen so I thought he was better in a lot of ways last night I I want to make sure he’s not just a good defensive Ryan Anderson Ryan Anderson was a corner three shooter who never handled and didn’t do you’re gonna have to do more than just be a good defensive corner three shooter in the NBA you’re gonna he’s gonna have to figure out more to the game than that I just don’t think that I don’t think you can just be a good defensive corner thre shooter and and survive very long in the NBA anymore I think you have to be better than that you have to have more to your game and I think he’ll get there he’s just still so young and still so raw I don’t think he’ll be a 22o a game scorer I think he’s gonna have to figure out like okay I’m crashing the boards for two offensive rebounds and four points that way I’m gonna get four points a night on fast breaks I’m gonna hit two threes and then I’m gonna make two other plays somewhere in the night as a slasher or a cutter or maybe even one myself and suddenly I now have seven field goals three three or for free throws and I’m a 16-point at nights eight rebound guy and now you’re really really good but he’s going to have to figure that out I was a little concerned on lateral movement defending on switches but they were all straight in the middle of the lane Tim lcome talked about him opening up too much I want to see that that would be the thing I if he’s going to be a great defensive player and I have a theory on defensive players in the NBA that everyone’s got it wrong he’s going to be a great defensive player I think we’re going to have to have better lateral movement off the bounce dribbles on him right now not certain on that because of where they were coming from and there just wasn’t a lot of space and it felt like he just got beat really quickly on S on sides and drives by guards last night against guards that aren’t you know NBA guards they’re good they’re like borderline rotational NBA guards Council and uh is good and so is the the other kid um doubal um or doubed uh so that’s my thought uh but again no surprise nothing wrong like body looks better development figure it out play harder all right we’ll talk about our rookies three of them as we continue next here on lockon Jazz thanks very much for tuning in today to lockdown Jazz your daily podcast in the Utah Jazz when you tune in you know you’re getting Utah Jazz every single time on demand Utah Jazz for you with locked on Jazz your second listen today should be locked on NBA I also will mention we have a big fun show if you’re a big sports fan if you’re like just a allrings f we have a new show called Big Six and 60 which is the 60 the six biggest stories of the day it’s kind of the opening segment of everyone’s show from the six biggest stories to day I think it’s pretty fun and pretty cool check it out feel free to let me know you guys have always been on the opening part of these things and give me your feedback so feel free to him uh I thought Isaiah caller wins rookie of the summer league like he was the best rookie whis had Dylan Jones wins rookie the summer league but of the rookies we had Isaiah CER I thought was the best um there was just so many questions about col you like what at USC was real and what wasn’t and this and that and the two takeaways I have on him was the downhill driving is real and also just all the questions about his draft his lack of size is real he’s small he’s certainly not Tyreek Evans 65 he’s small like everybody he was smaller than everybody guarded like he’s 6’2 6’1 like it that’s I think what happened to him on draft night as much as anything his measurements um because his downhill game is still true his vision is tremendous that’s bet that might be the single skill in three days of summer league that I saw that was better than what I anticipated was Isaiah coler’s vision he really can pass it and fine guys and sets plays up and sees it there was a neat play with filipowski where he pulled him out set the pick certain way drove and then left-handed through the pass back it was a little weak to get there but it told me that like he actually saw the play all before it happened set it up moved it got his guy there in a way that like oh he gets the game he also had a drive where he threw pass one removed like I’m a big believe like there’s an obvious pass in every possession can you make the pass that’s actually one pass removed from that or the pass that the next guy would make that’s open cuz that then really pushes the defense pass that and I thought he made that pass a bunch of time um I kind of believe he’s going to learn a lot and learn as he goes like I think he’s a Hooper that gets it and he’s gonna really learn as time goes on he’s small though he plays he plays harder in maybe he has to right so it looks like he’s playing harder because he has to um but I thought that was a good three-day sequence for Isaiah Coler and if Keon shuts it down a little bit we’re really going to see you know the days with keontay were better than the days without which I thought were noticeable so I think it’s super important to watch who he’s playing against in the summer league in Vegas um is he playing against their first tier guy and how does he look versus if he plays against their second tier guy and how does he look his shot it’s funny I if you’ve been if you’re an every dayer you’ve heard me say this about is call you’re all draft process like there’s a ton to like and then he’ll literally shoot a three hit the glass not the rim and you’ll be like oh God you can’t get that Vision out of your head like that’s literally what happened to me when I scouted him is I was watching him I thought he was great he got downhill on everyone he beat the crap he beat everybody off the bounce he showed his crossover he showed his Shake he super strong off contact I’m super excited then he would take it three and he would miss and he wouldn’t miss by a little he would literally dial the wrong number it would hit the glass and not hit the rim and usually long and it’s like oh my he did it last night he missed by that much again it’s hard to wipe from your like mind but generally his pull-up jumper seem fine and some sh like he’s going to work he’s kind of a set shooter and he’s 62 and so then I think what happens is someone closes and he’s got to change the arc on it so it doesn’t get blocked and then it goes really really long makes sense that’s I think what’s happening there um the but I thought like the strength is real I he can play he can really really play he might be able to play I I he might be able to play right away not like a lot he might be all right to play 12 to 15 minutes a night right away I Cody’s interesting he’s exactly what I thought it’s all there watching M Colorado my theory was he was on the floor with KJ Simpson the 300 pound cator lampin to Silva and he acquiesced to all of them and was super quiet and wasn’t that demonstrative or noticeable because of those three watching him in summer league I no longer think that’s the case I think that’s just who he is right now and that’s going to be his biggest development is how does he aggressively assert himself into a game and how does he again he just looks so casual but when he has to do something defensively and slide his feet he does it he gets there and he does it with such ease because he’s such an incredible athlete so it’s going to be really interesting to me to see of what Cody how Cody Williams develops because it looks casual but when it needs to be plugged in it’s good his defensive feet are awesome are awesome he really recovers fabulously which is exactly what we said in The Scouting if you remember my viewpoint on him versus Ron Holland was that Ron Holland gets beaten can’t recover laterally Cody Williams gets beat and recovers every single time laterally I thought that I was that’s still said to be true and he’s and really terrifically like that’s going to be neat he’s a little small and my little bit we’ll talk about this probably tomorrow my or next week I my theory on defensive players is you actually have to be a brute and Cody’s not a brute Norris Taylor which concerns me a little bit the other Cody’s it’s all hidden like his first half he was like 0 for four with like zero points zero rebound like it’s all hidden and then he’ll bring he brought late in the game on the right side of the floor that he brought it up got troubled suddenly showed a low crossover move stepped through and got to the rim and fouled like whoa haven’t ever seen that at Colorado saw three plays in summer league I never saw at Colorado so like it’s all there just chip chip chip chip chip chip it’s gonna be super fun to watch it develop it’s all there G league for him though to me all right so like a 29th pick I think it probably play 15 minutes T night g-league for Cody Williams for me would be my quick thought on this because it’s all and he needs 35 minutes A Night to try to figure it out and to do things and to try things and to assert himself on the game and to either learn how to play harder or assert himself more I don’t know how to phrase it but it’s all there like the shot will get there there’s no question on that it’s comfortable there’s a little more handle than you thought there was there’s definitely explosion there’s G like he went to the rim once soft and got swatted it’s like okay you can’t do that later in the game you went harder it’s great goes back to a great Evan Brad’s quote from last year don’t worry about what the rookie does the first time worry about what he does the second time after he’s learned the first time right Keon got punked by Aaron holiday last year and I was super bothered by it and Evan said to me like yeah don’t really worry about that unless he gets punked a second time and doesn’t react and then you real then then worry about it it’s a great point I thought Tim lco made a great point about Kyle filipowski and it’s like he has all the skills to do it he’s just gonna have to do it differently right he came off a dribble and his loose his dribble is a little looser and he gets reached from behind and gets stolen he spins because that’s his move is a spin move he got away with it once I said this about his college scouting I doubted whether you could get away with the NBA you should have to do it differently he’s got all the skills right he’s incredibly skilled for a seven-footer rim defense is going to be an issue which leads to the question of whether he’s a four or a five really I don’t have anything saw of filipowski like he backed up how skilled he is and he backed up the questions like again like my Takeaway on all of this was no big surprises which is good also means like we’ve done our work beforehand and two just play a little tighter and a little harder on all of them but that’s age and that’s why we do this that’s why you have summer league so they can learn these things um tip of that Isaiah ker I thought he turned the game the other night last night got the energy and then key finished it off good combination of those two that’s why I actually think that I actually think that could be our I think that could be our backourt for the year like key starts and caller backs him up I actually would think that would be fine I don’t know who how they play with Colin ston I don’t totally know how they play with Jordan Clarkson either sizewise ston sizewise Coler and Saxton on the floor together would be super small and somewhat redundant um and then Jordan’s gonna have to defend a little bit with that so we’ll see I mean I that’s a unique the B the point guard of Keon and Isaiah CER feels like that actually could be 48 minutes to me of I mean it would need a lot of work but it could be 48 minutes and then we’ll figure out how we’re playing the two um Darius basley to me I’m Allin as an NBA player just I said that yesterday I just want to back it up again he just does everything everything he does in a summer league game he could do in an NBA game and translates um he doesn’t do anything great which is probably what’s prohibiting him but if he ever started to shoot about 36 37% he could be really really good um it’s a good bet and then I just want to throw it out there I just think it’s super weird that Derrick White got the Olympic team instead of Donovan Mitchell like I kind of think it’s wrong actually like I get he might fit to the team better like Donovan is just so much better and Donovan is somewhat important in this league I I just think that was wrong I I don’t know if Donovan didn’t want to go or something else but like yeah we’re overthinking it if we’re taking if we’re taking Derek white over Donovan Mitchell that’s bogus I Just sh throw on that out there all

The Utah Jazz Salt Lake Summer Leauge came to a conclusion last night wrapping up 3 really fun days at Delta Center. David Locke, radio voice of the Utah Jazz and Jazz NBA Insider, takes a moment to recap the 3 days and break down the performances of Keyonte George, Walker Kessler, Taylor Hendricks, Isaiah Collier, Cody Williams and Kyle Filipowski.

Locke’s one conclusion on a week that was without surprises is that the guys need to play harder, with more precision and more detail. Too many possession that sneak away from the Jazz youngsters that will cost them games in the regular season or in summer leauge.

Locke also wonders how does Derrick White make the USA team over Donovan Mitchell.
