I want to talk about this comment, truthinessization or whatever he's saying.

And he says he wishes we were as in love with Reid's offense as we are with apparently Jabari's defense.

You know, I don't know where that comes from because I saw some of that after, you know, Bima and I talked last night.

I do like Reed a lot.

I think Reed's future is really good.

I'm absolutely not anti-Reed in any way.

I've been very critical of Shingun.

I'm not a huge believer in Shingun.

People know that.

But as far as Reed's concerned, I feel like with some of those issues that he has, the offense could be so special that it's easier to live with some of that stuff.

But in Reid's case, I don't know where that comes from.

I think what we're trying to talk about, or at least I have, is why Imei is a little one foot in, one foot out at times, because there are games where it can be an issue defensively.

And we're only talking about the foundation of Imei Odoka, his whole structure.

If he plays one guy who's getting scorched on defense defensively,

consistently, it kind of throws the whole thing out of whack.

Whereas you might be able to get away with an offensive liability on the floor a little bit easier with Imei Odoka.

So that's all I'm trying to point out.

I believe in Reed quite a bit.

Yeah, you know, there's also something with Shang-Goon to me, and I talked to you about this, Ben, at the time.

It's so strange to me that he does not guard Durin.
