I'm a mashed potatoes guy.

A lot of garlic, a lot of gravy.

And yeah, I don't get a lot of mashed potatoes.

So once a year, I really go into it.

Oh, man.

Okay, 2015.

Yeah, I do.

I think, you know, those three franchises we have here in Texas are pretty proud franchises.

I know it's been a while since all three have been good, but all three have won titles.

One of the things I appreciated, Bill, when I worked at the Spurs is these are real rivalries, too.

Like the Houston-San Antonio rivalry was much...

bigger than I sort of expected as an outsider, but I'm also pretty high on all three teams.

I think there's some commonalities, dude.

I think the biggest one is they all have a very, very exciting young player at the, at the heart of the story right now.

I'm in Thompson.

No disrespect is the lowest on that one, but he's very exciting.

According to the GM survey that came out this week that he saw that I wanted to ask you about that later.

He's the most likely player to have a breakout season, so they're very excited about him, and rightfully so.

But then you have Wemby and Cooper Flagg here in Texas as well.

So I think it just sets the stage, not only for this season, but for the rest of the 2020s, Bill, for these Texas teams to be pretty optimistic.
