So yes, the context is different if the thing is different.
matched
That is true.
matched
I agree with you.
matched
it's stupid, but so yeah.
matched
Yeah,
matched
faking it.
matched
Okay, Trista, I'm not sure if you agree with this or not, but there has been a lot of um hand-wringing about the timing of the FIBA World Cup and the fact that now there are still four regular season games, like each team has four games left before the playoffs start.
matched
And that why do we still have regular season games?
matched
Like we just took a two and a half-week break.
matched
This is stupid.
matched
Um, I actually think this is awesome.
matched
Like I have completely changed my mind about the timing of the World Cup in the season because now
matched
Now all these players are coming back from the World Cup, and it is basically a sprint to the finish line of the end of the season.
matched
Some of these teams uh basically the the top eight are set, like we know which teams are gonna make the playoffs.
matched
But some of these teams have a few easy games, some of them have like really hard games left, and the seeding is not determined yet.
matched
So it's gonna be basically a four-game sprint to figure out who has home court advantage in any upset, which there could be some big upsets because we know teams are coming back.
matched
from a World Cup, some of them haven't practiced in a while.
matched
Um, some might have injuries, some might be tired.
matched
Like it's gonna have a huge impact on how the rest of the playoffs go.
matched
And I think for the for dramatic narrative purposes, this is kind of great.
