I think it would be lunacy to sit there and say, oh, they're better without LeBron.
I'm not going to say that.
LeBron James is too good a player.
But there is a vibe to an offense.
And you can't just completely ignore the fact that, you know, Luka and Osweeps have played well together on the court.
They've had another unit where LeBron is out there by himself without those guys with a different group of guys, and that group has played really well.
So the three of them together, I mean, you just look at the numbers.
It hasn't been, I think, what certainly JJ Redick and the Lakers expected.
And now LeBron's out right now.
He's going to be coming back, and you're going to have to figure this out best you can as you head into the postseason.
I think...
Your point about looking at the top of the East and then these teams in the West.
So we agreed on Oklahoma city, San Antonio, and then Denver being the next team.
So that leaves Houston and Houston and the Lakers and the Timberwolves.
To me, all three of those teams are flawed, but they've had stretches this year of a, you know, seven to 10 game stretch where they look really good.
And you're like, man, that's a lot of talent and it's coming together.
And then they hit another one of those stretches where they have, like for Houston, they'll blow an 18-point game to lead to the Knicks in the fourth quarter.
And they can't run their offense.
And you're like, okay, there's their fatal flaw.
And they can't shoot.
