Every single shot they take feels like an epic journey. I mean, literally returning the ring to Mordor just to get โ€“ A layup sometimes for Jalen Brunson.

There's one, you know, if If you're going to exactly if you're going to say something, he has a ball in his hands a lot and there's a lot of dribbling there. And now there's one less guy doing that. And so your game plan becomes so much more simple.
