And it's because it's just so difficult as a... I'm not saying Miles Turner's plotting. I think he's got a little bit of... He's not Brook Lopez right now, but it's a tall task for him defensively. So I think that his ability to hold the fort...

And as a team collectively, for them to kind of, you know, shrink the floor a little bit, but also, you know, stop the roll, but also take away the corners at the same time.

I honestly didn't even consider Thomas Bryant in my thought process for that reason, because I thought that... I just think that you have to switch a ton against... And not to get ahead of us, but like when... If we get the Eastern Conference Finals, it's like... That matchup is favorable, I think, defensively.

Or a team like the Boston Celtics is favorable because they're comfortable switching everything on the ball and off the ball.

Honestly, Zach, I wouldn't be surprised if they switch that action. Jared Allen and Evan Mobley have been switch happy all season.

Yes, yes, yes.

I agree. I just think that Cleveland has more buttons to press and more options, and I like their depth more, and I trust their shooting more. I hit in my notes that Pascal Siakam is a huge player in this series, and whether it's an inverted pick and roll or whether it's sealing a guy in a cross match, I think that Indiana has to get easy points.

They have to get their transition stuff, and they can't give away anything. They have to take care of the ball. They have to get back in transition, and those are things that are part of their identity and why they've made such a leap this year. Part of why they made such a leap this year defensively. I wonder if Indiana will go way smaller than... than they have before, really.
