We're in.

Awesome.

How's that any different from, from where they are now, which is the inability to put more than 8,000 people in the stadium on a Tuesday against, you know, Portland, I don't know, 50% off tickets.

Who are the top three?

I think it's impossible to have a fair view, a fair assessment of Paolo based on the context in which he's entered the league and competed.

Okay, that's not the question.

Well, the rookie contract element of it changes the equation, right?

Well, let's think about it.

I think that... I mean, Sacramento's a bad example because Doug Christie's the coach, but I think Paolo... Well, they would hire an actual NBA coach.

Okay, if they do that, if they do that, like, that's...

that's a goddamn good trade.

Thank you.

I don't think that's a bad trade at all.

I think there's a version of Paolo that we haven't seen yet.

And I know, I understand all the criticism.

And, you know, when we're having to question effort and when he and the coach are doing the dueling press conferences about who's to blame for the fate of the team, that's all bad stuff.

But, I mean, he's really talented.

You know that he is a 20-plus point scorer, a 10-plus rebounder.

We're talking about Paolo.

Is Cam Boozer that?
