Proves it is absolutely true.

And it's just funny that that's how they decided that.

But I mean, the real kind of answer to that question is like who should guard who is there's not really a bad answer here, guys.

Yeah.

If you have two of the best guard defenders in the league, I think it would have been just fine the other way around.

But I think it is interesting that they had 11 of their coaches vote on who they thought should be the primary defender.

And they matched them minute for minute.

I was sitting right here, right by Coach Degnault the whole game, and got to hear him when you saw James Harden get up.

it's queso you know get off the and run down yeah you know when it's donovan getting up it's like lou whenever whenever donovan sits lou goes to sit and so like they match them minute for a minute in this one um no wasted energy no waste and energy yeah so especially without especially without caruso who's like another option for those guys like you don't like you really need to like decide what you're gonna do there um and it proved to be pretty effective

Yeah, I believe in them as an Eastern Conference contender, for sure.

I think they have the talent.

They also have a lot of guys who have a lot of questions to answer come playoff time.

And they almost maybe have too many of those guys.

When you look at James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley, Jared Allen.

I mean, their top four guys are all guys that have had really severe criticism come playoff time.

Some of it is, too, that I really like the supporting cast they have.

I think adding Keon Ellis is a really big deal.

Dennis Schroeder is always going to provide fire for you.

I think Sam Merrill, Jalen Tyson are really solid guys off the bench.

The saving grace for the Cavs is that they're in the Eastern Conference.
