Yeah, and just like if you've ever suffered an injury and like

I'm not an athlete, but like I've gotten hurt doing things.

And so like you're just cranky.

Like I'm irritable with everyone when I'm when you don't feel like when you're sick, you don't feel good and you're just cranky.

It's the same kind of deal.

And the other thing I just I do think that I've said this really consistently because there was a conversation that kind of evolved about does he like basketball?

And that was always a big one.

And we've always we've kind of proven that's false.

And that interview was a good example of that.

of a lot of indicators.

If you're close to the situation at all, you know he loves basketball.

But what I've said consistently is, oh, no, no, no.

Nikola Jokic loves basketball.

He hates the NBA.

And that's different.

That's a very different thing, is the NBA comes with media and travel and a lot of

uh american cultural things and it's 70 it's 82 games and then the playoff series and it's a ton of travel um and it's just like it's it's the season is a grind for everyone and i think it's fun when you're coming of age and you're finding out how great you are between the ages of 22 and 27 i think it's fun then i think after that it's just like all right it's a job and my job is to get through this so i can get to the playoffs where the real stuff matters

So this is what fans see, right?

They turn on the game 15, 20 minutes before a game at most.

Most of the time, it's just right at the game.
