But it does seem, you know, Christian Brown is a rising player, as all of us Jayhawks know.

But it seemed that – I'm going to go back, actually, to last year with three games left in the season.

And they fired Michael Malone and hired one of his top assistants, Dave Adelman.

And I just think from that point on the team has had a hard time finding its identity perhaps.

And I think there was always some kind of issue in the front office with the general manager and the coach and below it is now gone.

And I'm not sure how much on the floor and in the front office was on the same page.

And I think that's, that's gotta be a cause of concern.

I'm not,

necessarily into the specifics of it.

But when you're around the league a lot, you hear things, you get side comments, and that leads me to think that maybe there's been a different feel in the front office for who should play and who shouldn't and who's actually on the floor.

It may have settled down a more this year because Michael Malone was taking great offense, I think, in some ways to

players that he was given, players he was maybe told to play.

And they just didn't seem on the same page as my bottom line.

So I don't know, Seren, where Denver is.

I mean, this is a team that has won a championship a couple years ago, has two all-stars on their roster, really three with Aaron Gordon when he's healthy.

But he was not healthy most of the season.

In fact, Denver, to get the 54 wins, really did a terrific job when a lot of their players were out a good portion of the season.

So I would like to think they can continue.

They clearly need reinforcements.

And what Minnesota did shows you the depth of the Timberwolves, their bench, their athleticism, and they made that a point in this series.
