about the jazz. Important summer forthcoming, they were, if not the biggest loser on lottery

night, certainly one of them.

I just don't know kind of what their,

I know what their plan is.

I think they have really smart people like in their front office and within their

organization.

Ryan Smith seems like a super committed engaged owner.

Danny Aange obviously is built really strong Boston Celtics rosters as like the senior advisor.

I think Justin Zanick is super, super sharp, really, really intelligent guy, you know, at the top of their front office.

They just bring in Austin Hange, who is known as one of the higher end evaluators league-wide when you talk to people across the

spectrum. I really like what they've done in terms of building out that front office. A lot of

other sharp people across the board below those people as well. Will Hardy is a fantastic

coach, I think, and a great guy to kind of be able to build through this thing.

I am so, so, so impressed with that piece of it.

It's just that they haven't gotten lucky enough to get the guys yet.
