But when you think of the guys who feel like the heart and soul of a team sometimes, yeah, that was Nas Reed.

So...

I always thought it was a Nas or Julius Randall thing or a Nas or Kat thing before they traded Kat for Randall.

And so when they offloaded Randall, I was like, okay, cool.

More kind of re, you know, shuffling the books and freeing up some money for Io DeSumo.

Fine.

You've got Nas Reid.

You could just plug right in.

Oops.

So.

Yeah.

So there's a lot of pieces of this that I can kind of see the outline of the rationale in Minnesota and in Charlotte, but I'm still trying to figure out exactly what the full vision here is and how they're going to backfill.

Well, and they also acquired Kobe White earlier this year, and they're now going to be locking him up.

So you could see they set themselves up for this.

They brought in a guy who initially was there to supplement the backcourt and their depth, and now they can just plug him in as the new starter in LaMelo's place.

Now, Kobe White is not LaMelo Ball for good and bad, I suppose.

But you're not putting yourself in a position where it's like you're having to scramble now to go find somebody to man the point guard position.

Kobe White's very capable and a very good young player.

I think I'm more concerned on the Minnesota side of the backfill because no Randall, no Nas Reed.

Are you playing small with Jaden McDaniels now?
