We don't really talk about him in that sort of tier of player, but he's been basically his whole career. Jaron Jackson Jr. has been phenomenal this year, especially like we know what he does defensively. Offensively, he's taken a leap on that end. I always think that we've thought of Memphis as a deep team.

And then you kind of look at the roster this year and you're like, I don't, how deep is this team? You know, like they're relying on two rookies in that starting lineup. There's guys that I like coming off the bench, but this team is really reliant on Desmond Bain making threes. Um,

they're a team that if just one thing kind of goes wrong in the game, especially with the new coaching there, it feels like can kind of go sideways for them early in the game. So yeah, I'm, it feels like Memphis is one of these teams that could lose a game that maybe you don't even expect them to lose in the plant tournament.

I think I do just because Jokic, you know, at the risk of oversimplifying stuff. But he's just obviously a guy who could take over any game and diagnose that matchup and do it. We've seen him go off for 61 points when they've needed him to do it. So if it's a do-or-die situation, I just trust him to do that. But... Yeah, avoiding the play-in for them, too, would be really important.

Making it out of the play-in. I mean, this is just a team that's been dealing with injuries all year. We know the Jamal Murray thing, like you already mentioned. Aaron Gordon has been in and out of the lineup with injuries all year. It seems like that still might be affecting him a little bit here. And then even with Jokic, the guy's playing so many minutes this year.

You know, if you could avoid the play-in and just save him a week, doesn't that feel like, of all the players in the playoffs, Jokic might be the guy that needs a week off the most, considering what this season has been for this guy?

Give them the week off. Like if you're Denver, they're also a team that kind of uses momentum a lot, which is kind of weird for like a veteran team. But when they've got when they are able to string together a couple of wins, that usually leads to another couple of wins for them.
