Who is Defensive Player of the Year? + Pacers up to speed?

Yeah, so he's been the one benefactor of all those wings being out because he would have been playing off the bench But instead here, he's now getting the starting role and starting minutes. And so, first of all, I think, Andrew, the number one thing has been his rebounding.

Who is Defensive Player of the Year? + Pacers up to speed?

Many games now, he's chasing after the rebounds, almost stealing rebounds, like we previously saw here several years ago with Lance Stevenson. Yeah. And Ben would just go get them.

The other thing is, I think his vision and utilizing that vision has been much improved. He's used to being the best player out on the floor. He's used to being the focal player who can put his head down, drive to the basket, laid in. Well, oftentimes the best is just moving it around the perimeter, just keeping the ball moving. And so I,
