There, are you finding somebody cheap and free agency there?
It's interesting.
Not for nothing, these are both new ownership groups.
Lori and Alex Rodriguez were putting their imprint on, I think even the Rudy Gobert trade had, I think, their stamp on it because they were in as minority partners then with the long-term agreement to take over.
I think they were really influential in hiring Tim Connolly in the first place who made that deal.
And now you've got, you know, Rick Schnall and that group who own the Hornets now have been in place for a couple of years.
Jeff Peterson, their GM, who could come from the Nets, he's been in place a couple of years.
So you have two newish ownership groups and a newish front office in Charlotte that I think are all kind of trying to...
remake these rosters and the identity of these teams.
And this is the first time since the Hornets drafted LaMelo Ball that I think they were in a position where they could make a kind of a clear-headed decision.
We've had him long enough.
We've got a newish, again, newish coach, newish front office, newish ownership group.
And they have now decided we have the core of a great identity going forward with Brandon Miller and Conknipple.
We don't need to ride the LaMelo Ball roller coaster, as you put it earlier, anymore.
And Minnesota...
Look, back-to-back conference finals, and then they backslide just a little bit this season.
They traded Kapp because of second apron concerns.
They would have kept him in perpetuity, I think, but that was a deal they had to make and to try to give themselves some depth as well, getting Randle and DiVincenzo.
Now no Randle.
Now no Nas Reid.
