Yeah, I mean, I'm curious who the Mavericks put on him. I mean, is it Najee if they stick with the starting lineup? Is it P.J. Washington? I mean, I think it's I would imagine it's got to be one of those two guys, you know. I mean, I thought it was interesting tonight. I mean, AD just started out the game on DeRozan.

You know, I think the last time Dallas and Sacramento played DeRozan had 42 or something like that. I mean, AD wasn't able to play in that game. And tonight they're like, cool, we're just going to stick AD on DeRozan like they're. They're comfortable putting AD on these perimeter players sometimes. I think Ja's a little too little for AD.

I don't think we've seen much of that. Also, you could find a way to space out with Ja. Let him shoot. He's been shooting well recently, generally, but if he's not able to physically be that guy attacking the basket, he's going to be playing on the perimeter a lot. Maybe you could just give him that space to shoot those shots.

I mean, when you ask Nico Harrison and Jason Kidd that question, like, how do you move past this? All they say is win. That's what they just keep going back to. Like, we just have to win. So I guess I'll say they have to win. And I don't think they can win enough. I know what you mean, yeah. I don't think they can do that without Kyrie.

So it's like we can't even – it feels like we can't even begin to have that conversation until Kyrie gets back on the court until, I don't know, January, February, whenever that is. I mean – I think it's just going to be a lot of discontentment for a long time.

Do you envision the Mavs making any wholesale changes? Obviously, they still have a game to play here, but this summer, looking into the offseason, do you think, given all of the turmoil over the last couple months, there's going to be any sort of wholesale changes of anything for them?

I would lean towards no right now. I mean, you know, just kind of the vibes I'm picking up is... I don't know that Patrick Dubon is happy right now, but I just don't see him making a change at GM right now. I think... You know, Nico, Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis, those guys are all kind of aligned. I mean, Anthony Davis has two years plus a player option remaining on his deal after this season.
