That's the ninth 20-point quarter of his career, if you include the playoffs.

So that's why they were up 20 at the end of the first quarter.

They were shooting 20 at 28 from the field.

And the Heat, I saw this from Ziller this morning, the Heat have given up 130-plus points in six of their last nine games.

They have fallen out of the top 10 in the league in defense.

They're number 11th currently.

They were the fourth ranked defense in the league before the All-Star break.

and are number 21 since, so sort of falling off a cliff.

The heat defense, that culture, right?

That hard work and tenacity, all that stuff.

They just gave up a lot of points right now.

Final one here, sort of pulling some strange headlines from yesterday.

The NBA fined the Portland Trailblazers $100,000 for a legal contact made with Young Hansen in December 2023, two years before the seven-footer from China was drafted.

The league also suspended two assistant general managers for two weeks without pay because of all this.

Then, we learned yesterday, Grizzlies forward Brandon Clark was arrested in Arkansas on charges that included speeding and possession of a controlled substance.

So, wilder story from yesterday, TK.

The Blazers and these assistant GMs being suspended and the fine there to the team, or the Brandon Clark of it all, what you got?

No.

Didn't they have, like, the 11th pick?

And that was a coward trade with the Grizzlies for a future?
