Joel, how are you today?

i'm sorry i didn't say it earlier yeah you definitely are well you give a good feedback too when you're on yeah the listeners like to text in and say it so yes uh and let's let's have some more your valued uh attention to this topic what do you think of the bulls hiring bryson grant yeah i don't i really don't have an opinion on it either way um

Now, in fact, Joel, I believe it was you who brought up Lou Dort when you covered Oklahoma City as an example of how

Sam Presti hits on the margins constantly.

The two-way players hit.

The assets hit.

They had a star to trade away in Paul George, and that's why they were able to help buy so many assets and be able to rebuild their team the way they did.

But I think what's important here, and we talked about this a little bit in our first segment, Joelle,

was what you just said.

It's the different ways of identifying and acquiring talent.

It's not just a specialty in one market.

It's not just hitting on one player, even though the player like Jokic, for example, is one of the best in the league, all MVP.

But in this case, it sounds like he does know how to evaluate multiple different markets and multiple different ways of adding to a team.

Aside from that is also, we thought that if it were Matt Lloyd, Joel, that Mike Inori would be part of that package deal where he comes over from Minnesota.

Do you have any names in mind now that you know Bryson Graham is there as to who the head coach might be?

You know they won't, Joel, but we appreciate you throwing it out there.

So we know, and the people who listen to this show know that's for sure.

Well, we'll let you get to Thunder practice.
