No, first of all, I don't mean to rain on the numbers, but I'm glad you brought up the versus winning teams because the offensive and defensive efficiencies, I think everybody collectively just watched an NBA season where it felt like a third of the league did not try.

You think that's a factor?

to factor in certain numbers that you bring up.

But the important number there is the winning teams thing.

Now, it also felt like the Knicks to start the year, all the vibes were rolling good.

They go win the in-season tournament.

And it felt like from that point after that, up until basically they had that seven-game win streak a month ago, nothing felt right again, Evan.

And I think it's just more of a feel thing.

And I think it's how it looks.

You could have all the efficiency numbers you want, but it became... That's not what it is.

I'm going to diagnose it.

All right.

And I think the Knick fan has officially graduated to that.

They've arrived to that point where they knew they were going to the postseason and it's about what you do then.

You guys are like the same now.

Yankee and Knicks fans are the same.

I think you're on to something.

You like that, right?

I do, because you knew they were going to the playoffs all year.

You knew before the Bulls got tipped in here to start the year that they were going to the playoffs.
