And I believe the Rockets are in the two. I mean, I know it's all kind of jumbled up right now.

So honestly, I could hear the argument that the, the it's threading the needle, but the pet best path for them might be sitting in the seven, eight, getting a home play in game on like a Tuesday night, winning that and sitting in the seven. Right. You're out of the thunders side of the bracket. Yeah. and you're facing what I think is a more appealing opponent than the Lakers or the Nuggets.

But, again, that puts you in danger in that 7-8 game. You'll lose that. Then your season's on the line. Then you're playing the Thunder even if you win it. So it's tricky. I mean, I know what they're going to do is they're just going to try to win as many of the next 10 games as possible, avoid the play-in, and play whoever they play.

But I do think the Rockets would be the most likely that they could take down in the first round.

Yeah, I mean, you mentioned the name Mike Dunleavy, and where he's really important here is he was the only person in this situation who knew both sides. He knows the Warriors. He's been in their front office for a handful of years now. Obviously, he's been at the head of it now for two seasons. He knows how Steve Kerr operates.

He knows the type of environment that Steph Curry has cultivated that allows stars to walk in and feel comfortable. But he also knows Jimmy Butler. He played with Jimmy Butler for three years. I've talked to Jimmy about Mike and how much he loves Mike for a few reasons.

But number one, Mike was there when Jimmy Butler prior to his star turn and Mike was adamant to Jimmy Butler that he saw it in him. Um, And Mike also, as I put it in the story, saw Jimmy Butler turn down Chicago's four-year, $44 million rookie extension. Right. Basically tell the Bulls, like, no, no, I'm going to go, you know, outplay it.
