But this group, you know, I think the group is really, it's really talented.

I think it fits better.

I think that last year's roster, I don't know,

It didn't fit great.

I think this roster, I think it really fits.

I think the players really fit the way we're going to play.

And I do think when you have a chance to have the best backcourt in the country, I think that's obviously a great place to start.

So our identity is who we are in the half court when it's time to execute.

But we do want to get easier baskets and blend that with the way that we could really wear on people in the half
