The only other teams in the East who can say that are Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, and Indiana.

It's incredible. And I know some of that came at the beginning of the season, you know, when they were a little bit more of a complete team. When they had Ben Simmons, you guys, when they had Ben Simmons. They did have Ben Simmons. But still above 500 on the road against the West for a team that's going to finish with the sixth worst record is pretty impressive.

That's a great one because I did not know that as a Thunder fan, and I'm also now very excited for it. Tom Garrick, I'm looking at his basketball reference. Rookie year, 0-13. Then he has four for 21 on fire. Wow, what a year. And then he had his 0-22 season. And never really went well after that. So, yeah, maybe Hartenstein could get on that list. That'd be pretty cool. Yeah.

Next up, favorite player. My favorite player this week, Denny Avdia. I've always been a fan of Denny when he was with the Wizards. When Portland traded two first round picks for him last summer, I was expecting big things, Andrew. Because the Blazers needed another playmaker. Denny brought that while also just being a really good all-around player. But then his season just did not start off great.

Through his first month, Denny's shooting splits were 37-26-79. And he was barely averaging 10 points per game. But things started to gradually improve. He's talked about it. He just got more comfortable. He was worried about fitting in when he first got to Portland, being on a new team with some established players. But he's eventually gotten more comfortable.

And over the past couple of months, I would say he has clearly been the Blazers' best player. In 19 games post-All-Star break, he's averaging 22.5 points, 9.6 rebounds, 9.6 rebounds, and 5.2 assists while shooting 51, 43, 78. Those are massive numbers. And Denny had his best week of the season this week. In three games, he put up 30 and 12 with almost seven assists per game.

He had 32, 15, and 10 against the Hawks. And his contract... which is going to pay him under $12 million in the 27-28 season, was always going to look good. But with his recent play, it's looking like one of the best contracts in the league. And I think it's important to point out that as Danny has improved over the season, so have the Blazers.
