The Nets can't help themselves.

The Wizards, I don't think they have that gear.

If you look, I mean, yeah, they're having to go out of it.

They started Quentin Jackson, Jalen Colts, Lawson, and Ethan Thompson the other night.

I mean, it's just...

Yeah.

Like, the Pacers are still in there is what I'm saying.

Like, I look in there and I'm like...

there's still something, there's some quiet confidence at the back where I'm, where I'm like, yeah, they are sabotaging, but the moment that this stops and they get, you know, granted, we've talked about there has been some turnover.

We're assuming a lot.

We're assuming a lot that Hallie is going to come in and be himself.

We're assuming that Zubats is going to, Zubats is going to do some kind of, you know,

At least productivity-wise.

He's not going to replicate what Miles is because they're two different guys.

But I look at them and I'm like, as bad as it is, I still see the Pacers in there.

But you have to really watch to see that.

Yeah, and there's an interesting thing that goes on, I think, whenever players are out, which we know we've seen that with the Nuggets, where they found out things.

You discover wrinkles because of your crises.

The crisis becomes...

you know, necessity mother of invention type thing where the Pacers, though, are at the opposite end of that where or the bad team, some of these bad teams.
