Perfectly planned. Exactly. Adam Silver's just kind of like doing the Smithers or Mr. Burns, Mr. Burns thing. They so they said all the right things to prepare for a close loss, a three point loss coming into this game. earlier today at Shooter Round or yesterday, I should say. We are podcasting here.

They were very adamant, especially Donovan Mitchell, with win, lose, or draw, which hopefully it doesn't happen. This is a lesson moment. This team, they know they're not going 80. Well, they presume they're not going 82-0. They probably knew they were going to lose this game, right? Like they were short-handed, you know, and it's the Celtics. Yeah. Yeah, they were short wings.

They were missing almost all of their wings. And they got Porter Jr., which there's always a Porter Jr. There's three Porter Juniors in the league right now. I can't believe it. There was four last year. Shout out to Otto. But... They got everything that they really could out of their roster, at least in the second half. And obviously their supporting cast shot lights out.

Darius Garland had basically the worst shooting game of his career. He tends to do that against Boston. But the point I was trying to make before I ventured off is that they knew that whether they won or lost tonight, this was going to be more about we're facing the defending champs. We're facing a team that we know is getting up for this game that has an advantage over us.

How are we going to stack up against them? And they played poorly in the first half. They played really well in the second half. I think even that second half, as well as they played, it revealed some of the disadvantages that they have, at least in their current makeup, against a team like Boston, who, of course, is the measuring stick that the rest of the league is going against.

But there's a lot of optimism. And they really came out of this game being like, you know, we saw what we could do against this team. We got a lot to work on. We're feeling pretty optimistic that the next time that we face the Celtics, we're going to be a lot more prepared and we're going to have the upper hand.

Well, I think it's not just that they were missing some of their good complementary shooters because, you know, Niang took his shots, Porter took shots. Jerome, did he take a three? He didn't take a three. Yeah, no. I think this is twofold. We see this a lot with this Cavs-Celtics matchup. Garland will have, like... Four good minutes in the game.
