And I was like, hey, Sam, like, you know, what should we do? Like, I think we should have practice today. And he's like, give him a day off, you know, be nice to him. And I was like, you know, you're going to fucking, you know, you're going to set it like this is going to come back to kill us. No, we're in the middle of January, and we're not playing well.

And I was like, Sam, this all started when you took the day off in Abu Dhabi.

No, I mean, I think both teams, like I said, every team in the league is better than us at something. Every team in the league presents a huge threat, and every team in the league is dangerous. And, you know, at the end of the day, like, you don't get to pick who you play, which is part of what I like about the playoffs.

And whoever it is, they're going to have a great game plan, and they're going to have things that we're going to have to really work at to exploit on both ends of the floor.

So at the time, remember they beat us on Christmas Day, which was a tough game there. At the time, it was their ability to play on transition and force turnovers. They did a great job heading into game four or three at Philadelphia. They were the best turnover-forcing team in the league, which allowed them to get out and transition.

And then with their ability to play Yabusele at the floor, they were able to kind of stretch the defense out. So we had to change our matchups and go to some different coverages. So every team in the league can bend your identity and force you to go to different things. And I felt like this season we developed a bunch of different identities playing a bunch of teams like that.

Yeah, I mean, I think they're, you know, the thing about them is they were really, they were great last year. Yeah, they were. They were great. Like they won 17 out of 18. This year, I think they've stayed healthy longer and they've gotten some depth with that. And, you know, DeAndre Hunter, I think Mobley has gotten better. You know, I think they're just, they're well coached.
