Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell, the two headed attack guards, and you've got the two headed attack bigs and Evan Mobley and Jared Allen, everything coming together. How much of this early season success are you going to place at the feet of Kenny Atkinson?

Yeah, you mentioned some of his crazy shooting numbers to start the year. I mean, the team overall is leading the league in three-point shooting, like 42% almost. Okay, that's not sustainable. We know that. Number two offense in the league. Do you buy the offense? Because I feel like a lot of it is predicated on the shooting.

I mean, you go through the numbers and you say, okay, they're not top 10 in three-point attempts. I mean, you know, we talked about the pace and it is up there, but... The shooting is absurd right now, and it's going to come back down to earth. Like, is this offense still going to be, you know, I'm just saying, you know, it's a small sample size, you know, 13 games and they are just blistering.

He's not getting stood up as much when he attacks from the wing with the ball in his hands, which is great. Quickly, before we go, they get it to 15-0. Do you think they make it 15-0?

Right. Right. Right. So I thought it would be a good time to check in on some teams and play a little bit of that Goldilocks game that we like to play around here. So you I'm going to give you some net ratings for some teams with their record. And I want you to tell me, Zena, if this feels just right, too high or too low.

That's what we got to figure out, because some of these, I think, are dead on and, you know, match the eye test. Some of them a little bit striking. I want to start with the Indiana Pacers. They're five and six right now. We know that they've struggled a little bit. minus three and a half net rating. How does that feel to you, Zena?
