Sar next to AD, Trey running pick and roll, wings spread, like...

that's gotta be a play in team next year.

You can get like really wild with some of the expectations of 80 pops in the way that like he hasn't in a couple of years, but like, I feel pretty solid about them being like their floor as a play in team.

All right, let's take one more break.

We come back, do the remaining three teams.

All right, the Brooklyn Nets, big winners on Sunday.

So I have it down here, two losses.

since February 11th.

Before that, they had gone 20 of 22.

It's just unbelievable.

I'm saying these things and I think we're pretty numb to it because the tanking down the stretch over the past five to 10 years has just been so brazen and terrible.

But this is historically just shit.

I can't remember the last time that teams were just throwing away months

And being successful at it.

I think that is the distinction that they have become so good at being bad that it's hard to miss.

They're experts at being shitty.

I almost wonder if as a byproduct to the NBA getting so tough with this talk about like finally leveling penalties, because Lord knows it's taking two decades just to get to the point where they're actually considering actual ideas that flatten odds and whatnot.

Um,

I almost wonder if a lot of these teams were like, oh, last day, we're just going to start doing as much as possible because this might be the last time we have to do this.

And so maybe that was a reason why teams like the Jazz, like the Pacers, got ahead of it early at the deadline.
