I have not crunched all the numbers, but if you find a new home for Jared Allen and get that salary off your books, which that is something that would be appealing to a lot of teams out there, then

it opens up these possibilities.

Yes.

You know, first and foremost, the, the idea of them jumping into the honest sweepstakes, um, which, you know, is very unlikely given everything we're kind of laying out, but Giannis is one of those players that if you have any chance to go after him, you do, um, it, you know, if it's not Giannis, you know, I didn't write this part last night, but like they've shown interest in, uh, Demata Sabonis in the past.

Um, you know, I think, um,

Doing something like that is on their board, but it's just really tough to get there.

It is funny, though, you mentioned the LeBron of it all.

You have this energy right now where, look at a guy like James Harden.

You do kind of wonder, okay, if he can land this plane and get to Cleveland,

how does that potentially impact how a guy like lebron sees the homecoming you know um i've had people talk about the warriors janice scenario where it's like if the warriors got janice and you got steph and janice together then the energy probably shifts for a guy like lebron towards the warriors you know and i don't know exactly how the warriors see that but it's kind of like like old heads unite type deal you know like finding a

a final chapter.

Kind of like the Olympics, right?

Yeah.

I mean, James wasn't there, but yeah, the Steph and LeBron thing.

And so we'll see.

But I mean, we know that players on the one hand, even the top superstars, they have only so much control and power, but they're going to exert every bit that they have.

And Dave, again, you hit on it a minute ago.

We try our best to tell all the stories of what's happening behind the scenes, but I would love to know more about it.

Like, who's James on the phone with?

Who's Bron on the phone with?
