No, I think that's that's where Minnesota did a good job with the drop in the switches of saying, hey, there's actually not going to be a role here. So two on the ball is not going to happen. Your Randall point was really good. And I think this is something I've liked about Randall for Minnesota.

There's a lot of things you can say about him, but he's going to drive the basketball, especially if he has a matchup that he likes. And he's going to force someone in the other jersey to come and help. Can you disrupt that?

So Randall and Reed being able to be tall and dribble and attack the Lakers in different ways, I think they just need to do a better job on those two as well and just get a better rhythm. I think that's key.

I think it is and it fits this team because his driving ability is just an added layer to a team that can sometimes get slow or not put pressure on teams. Minnesota's been an enigma for me all year in the sense that you've seen the good, you've seen the formula, and then they just haven't done it. Like, oh my God, we got trapped. This is not a good game for us.

Anthony Edwards wants to shoot the ball. Oh, wait, Anthony Edwards wants to make plays. You never know which version you're going to get. And so I think having Julius and his ability to make quick decisions kind of gives us that energy.

And that takes less of the burden on Jaden McDaniels, who now, you know, I think second half of the season had a lot better stretch offensively to where he understood, okay, this is how I am able to make plays. I can belly off everyone else. So I think his consistency and his driving and his quick decisions helps this group grow.

in those moments where they can't necessarily find things in the half court. And so I've, I've really thought he's been an important piece for Minnesota this year.
