You're right about Luca. I'm trying to think of... I'm sure there are other ones. I mean, these are just kind of the high points.
Yeah, the Luka one you pointed out is a good one, too. And I think that one should be in the group, too. And he has some similarities in terms of the way... I always try to watch guys who run away from stagnation in their development towards the NBA. Right.

Luka, every single time, and the people around him played it really smartly, is that when he was at a certain age, the challenge... They were always ahead of the stagnation. They were like, all right, we see that he's going to stagnate here. And they just kept moving him up. And I think what happens in that situation is you just develop...

The later you delay problem solving in your development, I think the worse off you are because problem solving and decision making are the most important thing to help you adapt to the speed of the NBA. And I just think you see some guys like Chris Paul came into the league and his size always was a stimulant, I think, for him as a problem solver.

Whereas you look at somebody like these high school college guards who are big bullies on the playground who get to the NBA and suddenly they can't bully anymore. You just see them be like for the first time in their career, like, oh, shit, I got to think about this in some way. And you see them kind of get bowled back by it. I just think that Cooper is so ahead of it on that front.

It's hard to, like, not hold it against guys, too, because you'll watch players who are 18 years old, like you said, and you're like, how competitive is he? I don't know. You start to feel a little wishy-washy about it.

And I think to myself, I'm just thinking, well, thank goodness no one was judging my career when I was 18 years old because I was just a total shithead and had no clue what I was doing.

Yeah, this all ties together to what we were talking about with Cooper. And I think it factors into player types and things like that. When you're looking at the way the two teams that I think before the season, your pick for the finals was OKC Boston, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah.
