I don't care about 10 years from now, but we've got three to four years here to contend. And Kyrie Irving's left knee injury not only erases one of those years, it likely erases two of those years from that contention window.

There's not a good pivot move forward. I mean, it's just go with what you got and try to get the 10 seed. I mean, they got a three and a half game lead over the Suns.

I mean, you know, I think one of the obvious effects of the Luka Doncic trade was this puts an enormous creation load on Kyrie Irving, who's going to turn 33 years old later this month.

I mean, that's just a huge workload on a guy who's, I mean, obviously a brilliant basketball player, but has not been the most durable guy in his career. He's not the biggest guy either.

I mean, you could just give him the ball, so many possessions and count on him for 70 games every year. And it's like, he's going to be good just because he was so big.
