And that could be a good point.

You might see Reed start these next two simply because if, let's say, a man sits out the next game, I don't know if he will, but if he does, there you go.

And if Jabari rests, like Michael's saying, after coming back against the Warriors for the second of a back-to-back, Reed might stay in there too.

So we'll see.

Maybe this Reed starting thing will continue.

I know the chat has pointed out he's 7-2 this year when he starts.

We don't need to continue that conversation, but my point is I kind of agree with you guys.

I feel like that he's important to that bench.

He is going to start.

Eventually, that's the plan to start Reed Shepard, or that's the hope.

You want to keep building towards that.

So we're not trying to keep him down.

I just think that right now, when you look at that bench, you need that sort of stimulus, and it's a contrast to what you already have, which is a fairly successful lineup.

So we'll see.

Things change game by game, but I could see that being a thing down the line, not right now.

You know, Tari, just to add to this for maybe those who didn't get to see the game, Tari was ejected tonight.

Ben had made a point earlier tonight about the officials taking the night off for a stretch, and I absolutely think this was true because there was a point where, yeah, KD got an offensive rebound, put up a three well after the shot clock buzzer.

They didn't call anything.

It looked like they were sleeping on their hands.

And then on the way up, on the way back a few possessions later, Tari sort of two-hand shoves.
