So you can kind of toss those ones out.

Certainly the Cavs would want to take their chances with the Raptors rather than getting one of these better teams that is near the play-in tournament.

And then like we're saying, second round matchup, I think...

you would rather play the Pistons than either the Knicks or the Celtics just because of an experience factor.

But yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see some strategic rests from Cleveland right now.

Yeah, watching them, they looked fantastic, the four of them.

I couldn't tell what I liked more.

Was it that Evan Mobley was up top a lot with James Harden to start possession?

So Jared Allen was hanging out.

way down at the baseline, and because all the attention was on Harden and Mobley, Allen was paying off, whether he was just doing some little cuts from the dunk spot and Harden was able to find him, or that Mobley was drawing attention himself in separate plays, so they just were working off each other really well, or the fact that Max Struess dropped eight threes in a game this weekend, and then

had a Miller Lite afterwards in the hallway during the post-game interview, like he's Luka Doncic going to the NBA Finals, just chilling, just chilling, having a beer.

He's in a fantastic mode himself.

And everybody else drawing attention, because it is on Harden, it is Mobley, and then there's an Allen, and don't forget about Donovan Mitchell, and then Max Schroeder's just there to catch and shoot.

So, yeah, perfect chemistry right now.

And so...

I guess it makes sense you just sit against the Jazz because you know you're cooking.

You know you're just giving the ball primarily to Harden, as you said, whether it's with second units or not, or it's Dono time.

They do have a fantastic offense.

Obviously, it showed this weekend.

Yeah, they look good.
