No, I'm not a coward, Zach. I'll do it. I'm going to say I'm going to say Rockets in seven is what I'm going to say. And, you know, I don't feel great about that, but I I have a lot of faith in this team's self. I know it's their first time. A lot of them. It's their first time. Not everyone's first time on the team.

But I have a lot of confidence in their self-belief in that they know their identity. They do not beat themselves. They are poised. And I think as we know from our last segment, you know, defense wins championships.

Most improved player I had, let's see, because I had Ty Jerome in as the fake. Just that is clearly the most improved player. Yeah, I actually voted for Zubat's. Number one. And then I had Cade Cunningham second, which I didn't feel great about. But honestly, there aren't there weren't a lot of great. So let me let me my quick caveat.

Like, I don't vote for guys who are in the first three years of their career. I don't consider them for this award. So, you know, Dyson Daniels, fantastic, obvious improvement, deserving award. To win Christian Brown as someone else who I believe made a huge leap, really filled his role, scaled up in a lot of wonderful ways. He does not qualify for my personal ballot for my personal reasons.

So I had Cade second and Peyton Pritchard third.

Thoughts? That's totally fair. I agree with You saying that these are two historically great seasons and Shea being on such a historically great regular season team as their leading scorer and the leading scorer in the entire NBA by a significant margin is incredible. Hats off to him. I also think that if I'm giving credit to the Oklahoma City Thunder for all their success,

It is Shea, one, and probably two, and maybe three. But also, like, having one of the great defenses of the last 25 years and also being one of the deepest teams in the NBA. And saying that makes me sound like I'm denigrating SGA, and that's, like, the last thing I want to do in comparing these two guys. But I also just am so...
