But the Pacers are, like, they're low-key feisty. And, you know, I think that I think Ben Shepard will play probably over Mathurin potentially in this series. That would make a little more sense to me for defensive purposes. But I'm going Cavs in six. I just think talent-wise, it's kind of a joke how good Cleveland is. Cleveland is very, very good. It's ridiculous.

A lot to unpack there. First of all, Andrew Wiggins, $30.1 million player option. You don't think he's picking that one up?

Um... You do have to give them the benefit of the doubt, I think, to a certain extent. I think there's a lot of – obviously, it's much more difficult to maneuver with the new CBA, just the – the ecosystem of the NBA makes it a lot harder to, to make the type of moves that Miami has historically to resurrect itself.

And, you know, they've made some questionable moves and decisions in recent years that kind of will have you being like, okay, like if another team did something like that, like, you know, I, the, the, Hindsight is 2020, but giving a protected first for Terry Rozier that year.

It has not gone how they thought it would. But to... And, you know, yeah, it's like, I don't mean to hate on Terry Rozier. I didn't see this coming. But I think more fundamentally, it's about, you know, one of the great organizations really know what they are, who they have, and they're realistic about their limitations and they're realistic about their goals and what is attainable.

And I thought at the time of that trade, I didn't think Miami was like, like that was very marginal to me in terms of an upgrade to give up that type of asset when I didn't think like they want to win the championship, right? That's like the type of, that's what it's in their head.
