Michael Pina

But I love how, you know, you talk about the spirit of the award, like this is his fourth team, I think.

And obviously the opportunity has increased, but like they didn't bring him in to do this.

This wasn't like envisioned.

He came in to come off the bench and like supplement Trey Young.

Like it's completely caught everyone off guard.

So shout out to him.

Love watching him play too.

He's so exciting.

Just like the handle, the shot making, the body control.

No, this was great.

I hope I didn't step on my MVP column that's coming out next week.

You might have.

But no, we actually held it.

I'm not going to lie.

We held it because, and you don't want to put too much weight in one game, but the Spurs-Nuggets game on Saturday could be very important.

We'll see what happens.

I don't care.

I don't think they care that much either, based on the comments that were made after the game by Carl Towns, by Jalen Brunson, by Landry Schammett, who made 6-3, 6-4-6, I think, from minus three-point line, basically just kind of tamping it down, not trying to make too much of a big deal out of the fact that they beat the Brooklyn Nets, one of the worst teams in the Eastern Conference, in a game that they should win.

And it doesn't change the fact that they're 3-9 in their last 12 games or whatever it is.

But I will say that if they did lose that game after the Mavericks rock bottom performance, I would say like anything was on the table so far as changes, big picture changes that could have happened over the next several days.
