Where they've, they've lost 11 games.

They've blown so many leads.

You get the sense the guys need the all-star break.

And so there wasn't a ton of energy coming into it.

And then by the fourth quarter, dude, it was just, it wasn't even tense.

It wasn't even tense.

People were annoyed, you know?

Totally, especially because with a little bit of a break from whatever that was, sputtering across the halfway mark, we'll kind of remember.

It's actually really fun to watch these guys play when Jokic and Murray are on the floor.

It will be again, man.

That's my half-court heave.

How about that?

I think Jokic will be good.

I think he'll be good on the other side of the break.

It'll be fun to watch, and we'll miss it for sure.

It's one of those things where you're like, I need a break from this, but then you don't know what to do with your hands when it's gone, you know?

Like Ricky Bobby, you're just, this is what I do.

I think he's scoring more confidently.

the the lows are really low on defense i do think there are more effort plays like the baseline for that is higher he's been in some passing lanes he's trying i mean he will just completely lose a guy beyond the perimeter but the defensive rebounding is good we've talked about that it's a skill of his it just is he gets contested ones even i mean some guys just kind of pick up the ones that fall to them julian fights for them he can get to the rim it's easier for him if he's going to get higher volume from three i think he's trying to do that julian has been good and

The thing is, man, we've talked about this, of course, but when a guy's ceiling is, oh, he helped us win game six against the best team in basketball in the playoffs, that's not the worst thing to have in your back pocket, right?
