Brendan Vogt

Houston is not okay.

See, they're not even San Antonio.

But they're good.

They are good.

They're top 10 in offense and defense.

They were theoretical contenders before the injuries.

And so for Cam to come into this matchup and I think just play as confidently as he did.

Once again, he only shot nine times, only had 17 points.

So it's not like he turned into a whole different guy in terms of shot profile and all that.

But everything he did, he did with a certain confidence.

Some of those shots he took, it looked like he really wanted the ball and wanted the shot in that moment.

And then those kind of like, Jamal Murray keeps using the word timely this year or untimely for things that are going their way or aren't.

And I think that that's true.

Like often you can pick these moments in a game where you're like, that was the swing factor.

And tonight Cam hit those shots.

So, you know, as a reminder, like his defense was great.

His hustle plays were great.

But he's done a lot of that all year.

To me, it was in a big game or at least a theoretically big game.

He played big, played up to the moment, looked like he wanted the ball.
