So, yeah, best of luck to Tamar Bates, CSU legend coming back to Colorado.

We heard from David Adelman, of course, as we tend to do at practice.

And right off the bat, we can start with...

His thoughts on the clutch.

David Allen has been pretty dismissive of this clutch issue, I would say, all season long.

And he was again today.

Quote, I always think it's interesting.

So our clutch numbers are really good with Nikola out this year.

People dwell on stats that don't matter to me very much.

He brings the Jokic point up because obviously that doesn't make much sense.

You wouldn't think that they'd be better without Jokic.

So he really thinks these numbers are really noisy.

Here's another quote.

I think our clutch numbers will come back if we're fully healthy because that's what we run makes more sense.

So we've been searching, trying to find more space for both guys, and that takes you away from your normalcy, which I thought was well said, actually.

And obviously, really, that is translated to Aaron Gordon's not there.

Right.

So they're trying to sort of compensate for that.

And normalcy, I thought, was a good way of putting it.

He did concede, though, quote, but our main two people have to be clean with their decision making.
