I think every team actually needs that. Doesn't mean every team's going to have it. But then on top of that, you have the Przingis rim protection numbers, which he doesn't get nearly enough credit for. I have mentioned this. I mentioned it with Bill, the hunt happy scenarios where they get really hunt happy in their matchups.

where when I'll watch them, I'll admit there are certain things on certain nights where I'm like, wow, they're getting a little stagnant. Do I really like what they're doing here on offense? And even in these moments where I wonder if I like it or if it's some kind of flaw, there's almost no number over the course of the season that backs up this being that big of a deal.

So it's like I'm being too hard on them. They're number four in clutch offense. They're 24th on clutch defense. So what does that mean? They can't play defense when it matters most. I don't know. I don't know what to do with that number because OKC, as we mentioned, we did the West. They're 23rd. So maybe that number doesn't really mean anything.

They have the second lowest amount of drives in the NBA. So it's like, OK, is that something? Does this team settle a little bit? too much. Well, Denver's last. Denver's last on drives. They pass it per game, the fifth lowest in the NBA. Total number of passes in a game. Behind them, though, Lakers, Denver, Milwaukee. Maybe Milwaukee's not your

Maybe the Lakers are going to be a little less movementy with Luka being so dominant with the ball and LeBron and Reeves looking for his kind of matchups. Denver maybe is just different from everybody else because Jokic is just this maestro pulling all the strings and all these different things. But like these numbers don't really mean anything, even if they seem a little bit lower.

I mean, they even have one number here where they have the most shots in the NBA between 25 and 29 feet. So that's 33 attempts on those shots per game. That's five more than number two Golden State. That's a pretty big differential between number one and two, but they make 37% of them.

So there could be a few things over the course of a Celtics game where I'm like, I don't know what's going on there. I think if there's an anti-Celtics argument, it could be, hey, they coasted through the East because everybody was hurt the whole time. So some of those questions we had about stagnant
