But where I land on this and where it feels like they landed is that one way or another, Steph Curry is going to one day not be on your team anymore. And when that day comes, the best case scenario of whatever strategy you come up with right now is going to pale in comparison to what you had in him and what you did with him. And so that leads you to say – All right. Jimmy's crazy. He's nuts.

You know, sometimes in good ways, sometimes in dysfunctional ways. But, you know, I was in the bubble when he took the heat to the finals. And like that dude was a monster. And that dude, when he's motivated early in the Miami years. Incredible. I mean, if you would have given him one more guy, then, you know, I think they put a better fight up against the Lakers. Yeah. So he's 35. I get that.

Uh, he does take very good care of his body. He's going to be motivated. Uh, you know, I think it could be a good fit. I kind of like the fire when you talk about spark and competitiveness, my God, Jimmy Butler and Draymond green. Are you kidding me? Shooting is, you know, something I think in the buyout market, they got to start trying to find some shooters.

They've gone from splash brothers to, you know, cannibal brothers. Uh, So I, you know, yeah, that's better job, Dave. But you know, I'm kind of digging it for now. I think it'll be fun to watch.

Yeah. Let's talk about the KD side of this, because when the reports came out that Jimmy Butler wanted to go to the suns, I don't know if you were like me. I mean, you you're more plugged in than I am. So maybe you weren't as blind as I was, but I thought, Oh, Kevin Durant wants Jimmy Butler to come play.

But then we wind up in this situation where to get Jimmy Butler, the Suns were going to have to get rid of Kevin Durant. And that to me seems absurd.
