And now you're like, well, we got to, we got to live with some of those Reed mistakes.

And because like you said, Ben, the chance of him going off and having some, you know, big games is there.

So I think that's what we'll see as sort of a counter to that.

We hope we see some more switching lineups and some matchups, you know, maybe Jabari at the five, certainly Capella playing, but yeah,

you're going to, it's just a, I thought it was a really bad news when it came down, you know, the grade three strain, the sprain, because I mean, hopefully he's back this year, but that's not even, that's not even certain that he's, you know, back even for the playoffs.

I think two months takes you, I think it was put, put it out there today.

That'd be eight games left in the regular season.

If he comes back like 60 days from now.

So hopefully he's back, but I think that's what they're going to try to do to keep this thing together while he's out is hope that Reed gives you that sort of

potential for huge games and then, you know, patch it up with Capella some and some with the small ball five lineups.

Yeah.

I would just want to make sure we mention the stars or we're going to get some stands jumping down our throats.

Kevin Durant tonight, 7-12, 18.7 assists, four boards, was basically relentlessly doubled and all kinds of pressure placed on Kevin Durant tonight.

Shingun, one assist shy of a triple-double, 20 points, 13 boards, nine assists, and as mentioned earlier, did have that big shot late, I don't know, maybe 30, 40 seconds left, put the Rockets up by four.

And the men, Thompson, as you mentioned, Ben, 16 points, 10 boards, six assists.

I thought he had that one drive that he had down the middle, the driving kick, which is what we've been wanting to see from a man.

He kicked it to Reed in the corner, hit that huge three.

I thought that was great.

Not just for Reed hitting the three, but a man, you know, driving that as well.

We can close with just sort of this.
