The finishes are easier to get to because it's less crowded. So doing that defense works, but you're going to have to continue to mix it up because if you give them a steady diet, they'll break you apart quickly.
Oh, Brunson. Brunson. Brunson. I think that, and I'm not, I'm saying, I feel very confident in SGA. I'm not excited. I'm not excited. SGA. I'm not excited. Kobe, Luca, Brown. I'm not excited if any of them have the game, but there has been somebody over the past two and a half seasons that have been in so many clutch crunch games have performed, like have been explosive.

You look at Detroit, how he plays, you look at the lake, you look at some of the big shots against Bob, like this is what he does. Little guy, you know, just figures it out. Team is built around him. He's got the space. He knows his shots. And it's not just big three. It's drive to the basket. I couldn't believe he missed that little left-hand floater from Carl Anthony Towns late.

Like even he was laughing. He's like, of all the shots I missed, that's the easiest shot I had all night. And that's to win the game. So I'm just saying currently right now, Brunson is playing. I think he is the guy that I would look at from an NBA standpoint, still like not expected it, but you're just not like this dude really did it again. Like it's, it's been fun to watch.

Tim Duncan said it to me, Tim, like he said, you know what people, we were just having a bullshit conversation. He was like, people get better at shooting at defense at so many things. The one thing that people don't significantly get better at is like dribbling or ball handling. They don't like a point guard who knows how to handle the ball can get better in pick and roll.

His handle can get sharper because that's kind of the area of, of, of specifications are like specifically what he does, but you don't see a wing player be have an okay handle turn into Paul George that no, no, no, no. That doesn't happen. Like Paul George has a handle as a wing player. He didn't develop that over time, but I will say this.

Playing with Jason Kidd and then playing with Vince Carter. So J Kidd was first where it's like, he would handle both ball most of the time and pick and roll. He was, and I would just see it. He got the rebound. I got the rebound and it was as fast as I can run. Even though my game improved and my ball handling improved, I became a better one-on-one player. Then Vince Carter came.

So now you got to choose between J-Kid, Vince Carter, and Richard. It's like, I'm further down on the depth chart. Shoot, J-Kid went down on the depth chart. We would put the ball in Vince's hands in the last minute or two. Then sometimes we would have J-Kid with both of us scoring options on the wing, whatever.
