The variable is the pick they're about to get.

And we're talking around that.

Kyle mentioned it as far as what that could look like for this particular team kind of penciled into the depth chart.

That's the franchise changer.

That pick right there.

Because everything they have, they have like, again, I'm as positive a Keyshawn George booster as you're likely to find.

I'm not telling you he's a superstar.

I love Alex Saar and the development he's shown this season.

He might be a multi-time all-star, but he's not going to be someone who dominates the ball on offense and kind of gives you a way of life.

they might get that guy in the draft this year.

And like that pick, I think is what positions to separate them from like becoming the Sacramento Kings of just like the flash in the pan.

Here's one like feel good playoff run.

And then all of a sudden everything falls apart because they're going to have whatever window they have with AD and Trey.

And how long the window is with AD is definitely something worth talking about because he's due for a new deal, is looking for a lot of money and a heavy investment.

That's kind of an issue in and of itself.

But you have this window with these guys, and then hopefully there's a changeover moment where whoever that high lottery pick is in this year's draft, that they're ready to assume more responsibility.

They're ready to take over for Trey, you know, orchestrating the offense or whatever that looks like.

Like that's where the hope lies for me.

I think that defensive combination could be pretty sick.

Saar and AD together on the back line, I love that.
