Yeah. Let's swing it over to the Bucs because the Bucs, this situation is a little bit different. They made a big move to bring in Damian Lillard last year. Obviously, they wind up having to make a coaching change. Look, if you go to Doc Rivers, you've had some problems. And Doc has not been able to solve them. Now, we go into the playoffs.

We don't know yet if Damian Lillard is going to be available. My guess is probably not, just given the gravity of what he's dealing with. It does feel as if this situation is much more tenuous than what you have with Jokic and Denver.

But man, it just feels like now... Middleton's gone. It's a whole new coaching staff. You know, everyone's there. It's probably we're probably in the twilight for Brooke Lopez in Milwaukee. It just I would be very nervous if I was a Bucs fan heading into this playoffs, because if it's a first round out, I would I would be very worried. Giannis would would push that button.

To move, you know, and Damian Lillard is kind of old. That's right. And Damian Lillard is kind of old. Giannis, I mean, next year's his age 31 season, you know, not getting any younger.

You have to start thinking about what's next.
