Yeah.
I want to ask you about Giannis too.
We've talked about it a lot.
I know.
But the report came out to McMahon saying Rockets are just saying we're as patient as ever.
I'm surprised by it.
Obviously, we have both talked to different people with the Rockets in the past.
I know they had interest in Giannis pre-Kevin Durant that summer.
It didn't come to fruition as far as him even being available.
I am a little thrown off by this, but I did point this out yesterday to Adam is, you know, there's a tweet out there from Mark Stein and from other sources a year ago today, more or less just before the deadline of saying the Rockets, you know, are not interested in Kevin Durant.
They are patient.
They want to see what this team looks like in the playoffs.
And I think that's what they want to do.
They want to give this team a shot and then make adjustments in the summer to
So if you want Giannis on the Rockets, if that's what your view is, I think you got to hope he doesn't, does not get traded at this deadline and he's an option in the summer.
But it just, it throws me off, man.
I'll let you speak because I feel like the Rockets, their philosophy has been these type of guys don't come on the block very often.
Sure, you get a Jimmy Butler, you get other stars, but Giannis is a superstar, a top three, top four player in the league.
Yes, he's dealing with a couple of calf injuries that are scary this year, but
You don't get these guys very often, and so I'm a little thrown off by it, to be honest.
