I...

I wonder just because the construction of next year's Warriors is so up in the air, how prominent of a role he will end up playing.

But I think because of the finances of their roster, and if they are going big game hunting, if they are trying to bring in other stars or angle for LeBron James or whatever it may be,

Guy Santos' salary slot is uncharacteristically important.

Getting his level of production out of that place in the roster has turned out to be really crucial for them.

So maybe he will end up just being vital for the Warriors now and forevermore.

It's true.

But at least he can play.

I want to run through some other guys who are playing well right now who will not win this award.

But because we're kind of running out of time in the regular season, I want to sort of give them their moment and their flowers.

Yeah.

Jairus Walker, of course, I will probably bring him up again just because that's what this podcast has become.

Gigi Jackson, Josh Minot, who with the Nets has been just given a chance to do some more stuff offensively and really taking it and run with it.

I mean, even at the point where we're in crunch time and it's a legitimate possibility that Ben Seraf is going to drive and finish and complete out this game and beat teams, literally anything can happen.

I would believe it all.

Pella Larson, who I've liked for the Heat, but I think has been especially good and really solidified his spot with them.

Omax Prosper, I...

I don't know what he is.

Apparently a center sometimes, theoretically, at least for a tanking team.

The Grizzlies in general, though, they're not good.
