But I do think the one aspect that is encouraging for me is I don't feel like

Like it's a major shakeup from a style of play standpoint, right?

Like they're bringing in another brilliant pick and roll guard that's going to run a lot of the same kind of stuff that Darius would have ran.

Keon Ellis basically replaces what they had last year in Isaac Okoro.

And Dennis Schroeder, a very, very, very discount version of Ty Jerome.

Yeah, it's like stylistically, I just don't think it's a dramatic shakeup.

Like if they brought in DeMontis Sabonis and now we're running a lot of offense through the, you know, him as a post creator.

I think that might be a little more difficult.

But, you know, the East is pretty wide open and this is a system that's pretty similar to what they've been running.

So from that standpoint, I do think that there is a chance that it works out here.

I hope so.

Right.

Like I think one of the biggest misconceptions of the previous era of cast basketball is, you know, when they got to the playoffs, the reasons they fail or they fell short were everyone's preconceived notions.

Right.

Like it's a small backcourt getting picked apart defensively or, you know, it's the two bigs.

Basically, everyone's confirmation bias kicked in in those situations.

Yeah.

Where in reality, what it's been is that the offense has come up short, right?

Like the defense, maybe it would have fallen apart at some point.

Maybe that would have ultimately been its undoing at some point in the postseason.
