Again, our Anthony Slater wrote the other day about how tricky and challenging any Kaminga signing trade is going to be. So I don't know which of those guys it'll be, but that it is. I don't know how you guys feel. I'm a little torn on this.

Das hat mich ein bisschen überrascht, weil ich es mag, Jason Tatum und Jalen Brown zu sehen, die sich durch all diese Jahre der Konferenz-Finals-Verluste gedreht haben, und jetzt, nur weil der CBA so strukturiert ist, müssen sie es brechen.

And admittedly, it's a little awkward because that group in particular, I really enjoy their front office and their coaching staff.

Pretty damn good. And you mentioned it earlier, two conference finals after the run of struggle that they had in Minnesota all those years. This is a legendary time for the team in that market.
