We've talked about this before, but ball pressure, they're playing 94 feet.

Zone is also up.

So you're seeing teams, you know, kind of cover a little bit more of an area.

He's actually near the top of the league in defending closeouts.

So that's part of it.

He is jumping out to these opportunities consistently and he's protecting the paint.

So yeah, it's a tough blow for Cleveland.

I will say they've, they've done well with just Jared Allen on the floor this year.

They've actually done better than when it's just Evan Mobley on the floor.

I think that there's a little bit of noise in those numbers, but regardless they,

They have another center that they can rely on.

The question is like, how are you going to filter through those bench lineups?

Yeah, I wonder if they have an outside shot of cracking the top six because if you look who's ahead of them, there's obviously Portland, Golden State.

Golden State's obviously dealing with injuries now too.

They have Phoenix who is over-exceeding expectations.

Maybe they cool off a little bit.

So there's an outside shot that this team that is, to your point, the number one record over the last 20 games ends up –

Cracking the top six.

Well, the way they're playing, it's possible, man.

Look, they have the third best offense in that stretch.
