Just insane plays.

I said this on the air.

I've said it a couple of times on the actual broadcast, and I've said it on our show, and I feel as dirty as you might imagine.

And I'm not in any way, shape or form saying he's in the echelon of a guy like this.

But he does things that remind me of John Stockton.

And it's not because he's short and it's not because he's white.

It's because he gets his nose in there and makes these heady plays that hate him as much as we all did and do still to this day.

John Stockton did.

Those are important, you know, game winning experiences.

and just winning in general plays that I think Reed does at times, even when his shot isn't falling, and that's what can make him redeemable.

But I know we're also in the same breath talking about a guy who I have heard tens of people say, yeah, he gets hunted on the defensive end.

So he's kind of Jekyll and Hyde to me.

I'm just glad we got the good version tonight on both ends.

Yeah, there's some sort of happy medium in between what they were doing at the beginning of the year, which was really weird.

they were leading or they are up near the top of the league in three-point accuracy, and they were taking like five a game.

Not really, but it just wasn't a lot.

So it was the ultimate efficiency, I guess, to where they were during that stretch you just mentioned in the last two weeks.

And Jabari was a big part of that, kind of like a struggle within a struggle.

This is going to be where things get fascinating for me, especially if you're Rafael Stone, because you mentioned, you know, maybe he, we've seen, you know, rumblings that they're trying to talk to half the league.

And you're in a you're in a weird spot because you don't want to make it.
