And what an amazing...
precipitous i guess you can't slide if it's precipitous maybe you can i don't know it justin you can edit me on that one if you want but um from where we were i mean he used to be there we go that's the face no thanks from where we were from where we were this just the excitement of watching him on a nightly basis was so incredible and and now we're um
We're at this point where I'm trying to think of guys who were superstar talents who don't fit the timeline of a team, who basically are imprisoned in a situation where they're not dictating it like Rob was saying in the off-the-court sense and how they steer the team and in the on-court sense.
where he used to just be this thing that could steer and force everything.
One of the great tragedies ever was we didn't get to see New Orleans or OKC have to deal with that momentarily strong New Orleans team.
I was really hoping that that would happen.
But I can't think of another superstar talent like that that's been in this situation where it's like on a given night,
I mean, he could ruin somebody's night, like a good team's night, because he's such a quandary to deal with.
And then he negates it with all the different kind of conditions about his availability long term.
Can you all think of another player like that?
I really can't.
And he's not going to... His technique isn't really... That's another scary thing on the horizon is his technique that should have softened the landing of him aging as a basketball player gracefully.
I don't think it's going to age well.
I think the way that he plays at 6'6",
I don't even know if that's the accurate measurement, but I mean, just the powering in together, the big, I would say the King, King Bob arm jumps that he does where, and that's what he, that's what he relies on is powering into people and having this touch.
He, he's more of a King DDD if we're being honest about it, you know,
He was trying to cater to speak our language, Rob.
That's why he said Wikipedia before Wikipedia.
