But I think the most telling thing for Sacramento, and it backs it up when you watch them play, if you go through the 10 teams in the play-in, and obviously for the playoffs, they're 10-18 against teams 500 or better, which is the worst of any of those 10 teams. That's kind of what I expect. Phoenix. It's bad. All right, overall numbers aren't as bad. Yeah, 11th on offense, 27th on defense.

Last year, they were 10th on offense, 13th on defense, even with all the injuries. Their 27th on D number, well, they were last in the NBA in February. They've gone 2-9. So last in the NBA in February defensively. Last year we kept saying, if all three guys, if all three guys. I was guilty of it. The matchup in Minnesota, look how it played out in the regular season.

What I don't think I realized at the time was that they were killed in that Minnesota series. And they've just been weakened at Bernie's deep. That's what this whole season's been. And I've been dumb enough at times this season to be one of the guys at the party thinking Bernie's still alive. I don't know how it all just turns around now with this team. I can't believe they're this bad.

February, look at the rebounding numbers. They're 25th. They're 29th in offensive rebounding. Because they start to look at things like what are older scorers more likely to do, like get to the free throw line less, get to the rebound numbers that you'd want a little bit less. They're getting 78 points per game combined from the three guys in February.

And that's kind of the point, is those guys get their buckets because there are nights where they were just elite shot makers and the ball's going to go in. But there's just a lot of that and then not as much rebounding that you need the rest from the rest of the game, not just the rest of the group.

The full complement of the game that you need to be taken seriously in the West, and I don't do it anymore with them, and I cannot wait for Kevin Durant's offseason. Portland, one of my favorite teams late here. A little Portland push. Offense, number 24. Defense, number 23. Last year, offense, number 28. Defense, number 23. But Defensively, they were ninth in the NBA in January.

They're eighth in February. That's been a big part of this turnaround. So they're a rebuilding team. But I think the most concerning thing is all the cracks that you get at it. Do you have a potential star on this team? It's certainly not DeAndre Ayton, who they've gone nine and ten without.

think about their record that they're basically a 500 team with eight and out of it so even with his stats at the end of last year and his talent that we certainly know not a winning basketball player it's probably a build around sharp thing I think he's probably your best bet and he does have those moments I mean he had a dunk last night that was I think Denny's a nice player.
