you know matt lloyd and tim's brother joe and all these guys um and then you see him after and you're kind of trying to give it the old hey great season but you could kind of tell right away to your point that no but none of them were going to say we didn't think we would be here but they were like listen if you you know if you would have asked us how we felt well we made that trade um and then told us that we were in the west finals like

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. And yeah, to do it on the heels of a trade that was largely financially driven is impressive and I'm with you. I think it is going to become more the norm.

Bei Garland ist es so, dass jedes Mal, wenn man kürzer fällt, die Fragen, die vorher da waren, Sorry, guys. Every time you fall short, the questions that were there before are going to come back. Meaning last summer, Donovan Mitchell goes into the summer and our group had reported right when their season ended that Darius Garland was going to likely ask for a trade. Und das kam nicht zu Ende.

Aber es benötigte, dass Darius einige sehr echte Gespräche mit Kenny Atkinson, mit Colby Altman über seine Rolle hatte. Du hattest also Darius, der eine größere Rolle wollte. Er wollte nicht nur in der Runde sein. Und es war ein Storybook-Saison von dort. Sie haben das ausgerichtet. Sie waren fantastisch. Aber das andere Teil der... Also, ich meine, ja, ich konnte sie sehen.

pivoting, because you have to keep evolving. I mean, when they look up and they're for all intents and purposes finishing 7th or 8th in the league, that's not where they were trying to be. So, yeah, I could see something happening there.

Well, I mean, it's wild. If you would have told me, guys... I wrote a story about the Pacers right around the time when they were 10 and 15. Yeah. And it was crazy because they came through Sacramento. And I'm just going to be real. I was just trying to like, I didn't have a lot to write that week. And I was like, all right, what can I do on the Pacers? Let me talk to Tyrese.

Even at 10 and 15, I had asked Carlisle when they were in Sacramento, I said, essentially, the only downside of making a conference finals appearance is that expectations go up.
