Like, I think Franz Wagner, his size, and he's a pretty good defender, pretty good help in on ball. He'll help in this scheme. And you might see more Jonathan Isaac than normal. Yeah. But I just wouldn't deviate.

I think that that's like the key thing here that I'm living and I'm dying by how I've defended all season and I can't fall into the trap of playing how Boston wants me to play is what I would say.

Yeah, I think even just going back to the Carter on Drew mismatch or matchup, I should say. Like, it took the Celtics three or four minutes to have Drew Holiday come up, flip a ball screen for Jason Tatum, and he drills the pull-up three. So, like, they just haven't – they're a very smart team, obviously. They're defending champions. I don't think that they can't solve this defense.

And, I mean, I think, to be honest with you, after watching them play and just – I don't even like, I guess, tricking myself into thinking that Paulo and Franz could have some type of offensive awakening on this stage. I've kind of talked myself into it being like a competitive four or five game series where like after three quarters in every game, the score is tied type of deal.

But beyond that, it's it's yeah, the Celtics are going to win in advance and they are much better. And it's just a huge bummer for Orlando that did not have. You know, the team that they envisioned before the season started with Suggs, KCP, Paolo, Franz, like. Both Wagner's injuries are a big, big deal to this team. And now he's dressed as an assistant coach, seated in the second row every game.

And it's a bummer. And they had depth and they had continuity and they had chemistry. And I thought that they were really good before the season. I thought that they were the biggest threat to Boston in the Eastern Conference. I thought so highly of them. So huge bummer.

uh for them and not having sugs in particular as you you highlighted in this matchup makes it almost or definitely untenable i previewed the other four series earlier in this week i made broad predictions on a few of them i want to make specific predictions now you can join in if you wish
