And I was like, we should be playing twos and threes and pickups bill.
Yeah, because we're incentivizing terrible shooters to shoot more and more threes.
The other trend I had, which was darker, was just... And I wanted to get your take on this.
What's dark about that?
But... No, I was just saying, with the LeBron news... Yeah.
The trend, and I want to shout out Tom Haberstroh for finding this last year, and I think it's going to continue this year, is just the sheer amount of missed games from the league's best players.
And I know that's a darker trend, but what are your thoughts on this?
Do you think we're going to continue to see more and more guys?
De'Aaron Fox missing the opening of the season.
Obviously, Fred Van Fleet.
Are we going to see more and more of these injuries taken away from the greatness of the regular season?
Yeah, I think the interactions, people don't talk about that.
You've talked about it for a while now, but the interaction between the style that we're playing, pace and space, the 82 games that we're playing.
Yeah, it's an interesting thing.
And I know we talked a lot about the schedule last year, but maybe we'll look more into this.
But I do think that's something the league needs to really look at seriously is the availability of these top players.
Oh, I love it.
Do you know how many threes they shot in their preseason game this week against the Grizzlies?
Yeah, 53.
And that was with the Scrubs.
