It's a sad morning for Golden State fans.

Jimmy Butler fans, Jimmy Butler's family, the whole nine.

Completely mismanaged, completely mismanaged, both sides.

I'm not even pointing a finger, but that's, that, that's been completely mismanaged.

I'm going to go back, Logan, to when you were talking about the team's

The team's psyche kind of like right after that game, like when you get that news, the utter deflation that that is and how long that lasts, no one can predict that, right?

And the thing about NBA games is they just keep coming.

They have a game tonight.

They keep coming, man.

And you're just, I mean, I can't express, like, try to put myself, like, it's deflation, man.

When you hear that you're, you know, one of the guys, you know, because role guys, we've talked about this before, role guys can, you can do the next man up mentality.

Now, he might be a little lesser than the previous guy that was holding that down, but

There's a version of that that's going to be okay, right?

We just got to get him up to speed, get his rust knocked off, and so on and so forth.

But one of those guys, the Jimmy Butlers, the Staffs, the Draymonts, when you lose them in that way and you know you're not getting them back, that's deflation.

So then you lean on your culture, you lean on the leaders of the locker room, the coaches, the brain trust, and the –

you know, the collective to try to ride that storm out as quickly as possible.

But you just can't predict it.

You can't predict the hangover from that and the deflation that comes with getting that news.

Yeah, I mean, that's the point, right?
