Maybe the reward isn't there as much as we think it is.

I promise I'll let you go after this because I mentioned it with Bill on Sunday because I was at the Combine. And a lot of the conversations that were just fun is just talking about the game. Like, hey, where's the game and some of this stuff. And a combo guard, and I'm repeating this for the audience that heard from Bill, so I'm sharing it with you.

But the combo guard was kind of like a dirty thing for a little while. Like the Aaron Brooks type. Yeah. Where... I'll never forget, you know, doing a show with Van Pelt and it was like, man, Aaron Brooks, like out of Oregon, it's going to like get buckets in the NBA for a long time. Like college has so many of these dudes that it's like, what happened to that guy?

And you're like, Oh, you didn't see that video of him in Turkey. Like, yeah, he's getting 38 game, but it just, it's not going to work in the NBA. So like shout out to Aaron Brooks for finding a way to take that and go in. But it was like that combo guard thing was like kind of small. You're not a two, you're not a one, but you get buckets. Then it,

evolves into if you're not a combo guard as our point guard, if you're a point guard that can't score, they can't pull up from three, but also like that's, that's worse than, you know, you can't have a guy who's like a non-shooter initiating all this stuff. And I do wonder if we're at a place right now where we kind of miss the point guard mindset and of the four closers, right.

Between ant SGA and, Brunson and Halliburton. Halliburton has the mindset that reminds me of what we have. But I couldn't stop thinking about Chris Paul or Jason Kidd or Gary Payton in some of these possessions late in the game where it's like, you know what they wouldn't do? They may not get you the bucket, but they would not have the same approach.

They would not let themselves get stuck into these ruts. that some of these teams are like, Hey, this is the shit that we did all regular season. And we're getting this many hundred points or this many points per 100 possessions. Like all the math tells us that this is the right way to do it.

I feel like there's an element of that that is missed because we, once we decided the point guard couldn't be as like, he had to also be a score that we're forgetting about the point guard part of it.
