But in general, like serious basketball, at least like preseason level intensity, I thought.

Good stuff, League.

Great stuff.

That's all, like, again, no one was asking for anyone to get hurt or to, like, go nuts.

It was like, it basically was this.

It's like, yeah, go 80%.

Just, like, get back a little.

Get in the way of guys, you know?

Like, put your arm out to deflect it so it's not, like, just ole defense.

And that's what they did.

There really was, like, and even some steals and blocks and all that.

So they played even harder than some of us maybe even anticipated.

There was some complaints in the studio as we were watching that there were too many breaks during... Indeed.

During quarters.

Well, that first game, it felt like they had five commercial breaks in the first game alone.

And then I know it went to overtime, and so there was another one.

But that was brutal.

Because there was a lot of timeouts being called.

They were taking it almost too serious, the coaches.

But then it seemed to not get as bad in the second and third.
