My thing is, again, this OKC, I know I sound like I'm giving OKC a lot of credit, but like I think they deserve it because it's not just the players, but the way that they were, you know, constructed and how Dagnall makes decisions, which I've really loved his rotate. I've really appreciated. OK, I'm playing this hot hand like what Kinrich played yesterday.

He came in and played a little bit more in game one, scored like eight points. He goes to him in game two. It doesn't look as good. And then he only plays him two minutes and keeps him out. Like I just, I always appreciate that diagonal. It seems to have a really good pulse on that stuff.

So here's the thing. So think about that. Like, that's a good change up, right? Like, let's throw out Daniels and not Dante Nas. And offensively, that's really interesting. Defensively, run around, scramble, put two on Shea, scramble out of it, whatever. Guys, if that's not your identity, that's something that works for a couple minutes, not for a couple games.
