Didn't have Marcus Smart tonight, really mattered.

He would have been on the aforementioned Dennis Jenkins.

Yeah, no Rui Hachimura either.

Not fast enough to stay in front of Dennis Jenkins, but he would have made him work.

Doesn't happen probably, yeah.

Yeah, probably doesn't happen as much, right?

So I think...

You know, they've been healthy.

So that's number one.

I think credit to JJ Redick and their staff and credit to their stars for all like coming together, like real clear role definition, real clear role definition, and then credit to LeBron James for real clear role acceptance when it comes to being, you know, a quote unquote third option.

Yeah.

Right.

Shot volume is way down.

Winning plays around the margins are way up.

You know, was scoreless tonight in the first half.

Third time only ever in his career.

Didn't feel like he was out of the game, like even a little bit.

Like when I looked and saw he had no points, it wasn't like, oh, my God, where's this guy been?

I think he had six assists and like five rebounds and was active defensively.

You know, so like that version of him right now has been great.
