Like, one of the things Jimmy has done has, like, he's made that a thing now. Whereas before Jimmy, they were so content with staying on the perimeter. But just by virtue of Jimmy not doing that, you're seeing pods get downhill. You're seeing Moody go off the dribble, right? You're seeing Draymond do it. And now you got probably the best... on the team at it outside of Jimmy.
It's like just physical getting downhill. I'm curious if that really kind of fuels the new play styles of pushing it, driving, driving, driving, driving. That's, to me, Jimmy Butler's greatest attribute is showing these dudes like, hey, when your shot is off, you can still have a productive game by doing something else, right? And so Kaminga... Like, if he's watching that, you can see.

Kamingo was the best one at it already. Like, he's the guy that's like, I'm off. I'm going to go get six free throws real quick. So now you put them two together, like, it'll be fun. Like, you know, like, again, I think, you know, you're going to have a problem with the size.

The other issue they have that Draymond, you know, if he was being, you know, honest about it and not just motivate his teammates, It's some other stars in this league. They just basically caught up as far as the star count. You know what I'm saying? Everybody else got these, too. It's not like, okay, remember the Durant came and it was like, this isn't fair. No, they were at a deficit.

For a while. They were at a deficit, and now they've caught up. But the other advantages these other teams have, I do think some teams like Minnesota... vulnerable, Sacramento vulnerable, you know, some of these other teams like Dallas is vulnerable. So I see what he's saying. The X factor is going to be like, how good is Jonathan Kaminga now?

You think there's any chance at all you could get to 38%? Please. You think it's possible? oh yeah he'll love that it's green light he's got the keys to the kingdom like this is set up for him to be the player he thought he could be and then like I mean here's the odd part I don't know if you see this coming.
