Like to me, that's the perfect coming to spot. Because he has the size and physicality to at least make Kawhi work a little bit. And he just threw it out the window. So I'm with you. I honestly thought he was hurt. I didn't realize that was just the coach's decision. And I'm a little more on the I don't know if you come back from that one. That was the biggest game they played this season.
And they're like, you're not one of our best players.

Couldn't agree more. And that's why they did what they did with coming yesterday, because I think they treated yesterday as like, this is by far the biggest game of our season gets us rest gets Curry and Butler and dream on at least five days off. And I think Butler needed it because Butler's gone. Butler's been playing, you know, he hasn't exactly been 82 games a year the last couple of years.

Right. And the intensity and the amount of minutes that he's just been playing in the last two months, I think he probably hasn't carried that burden for a couple of years. On the Kaminga thing, Steve has done this before. right? Think about like some of the Olympic teams, like they basically buried Brandon Ingram and then came up with some fake illness or whatever.

It's like, it's never happening, never happening. And he didn't fit there. He did it with Tatum last year. Like he doesn't give a shit. He's has, what does he have? 10 rings? What did he win? Five as a player, four as a coach. Like he's just going to do what's best for the team. And he's not going to care that coming as agent is going to be mad at him the next day. But I thought,

The fact that Kaminga didn't play in that game tells you how important that game was to them, where it's like, they know they can beat the Lakers. That's just small ball versus small ball. That's a good matchup for them. Now they have this dumb Memphis game. They're going to put miles on themselves. And then this Houston team, that's just a pack of pit bulls with some real size.

And the chance to, um, uproot an older team, but it's your classic, classic, classic older team, younger team game. This is one of the better versions of it. Right. I was thinking about it last night. Like this is the textbook. Do you like experience? Do you like having the best guy in the series? Or do you like just this team that's coming?

And sometimes we've seen versions of this where the young team just sweeps. You're like, oh my God. And then other times you see the 6-7 game version. But I do not think it would be a short series.
