Maybe that's the most interesting part of this because I've spent so much time on the Mavs thing. It's pretty clear. It resets 2025. It probably changes what you're capable of doing. They've been playing better, but it's just a reminder that when somebody like this becomes available, none of your 2025 plans mean anything. And it's, it's a shift into whatever the Luca phase is.

And maybe there's some other little piece here at the trade deadline, but you know, on the perimeter defensively between LeBron Reeves and Luca, it was like, Oh my God. But it's like, well, you can't, no one would ever go, well, you know what? I'd say yes, but I don't like our perimeter defense. And now we only have Jackson Hayes at center. So this doesn't make basketball sense right now.

It speaks to just hit the reset button because you would hope, to get one of these. Granted, Lakers is a little bit different with their history, but as I've said earlier, big franchises could go 25, 30 years and never get somebody like this, and they just got it.

You know, we talked about it on Saturday a little bit. I've seen it discussed like, oh, well, you know, LeBron is so great on the ball, which is true. I mean, he's, he's brilliant. And it's one of my favorite things about his entire career.

And it's kind of funny where it's like, well, some of these stupid podcasts, it'll be like, well, he doesn't actually have the scoring mentality of like, whatever. You're like, dude, whatever, you know, just the guy's a brilliant, brilliant basketball player. and he's put up plenty of scoring numbers.

It would tell you he's a scorer, but he's just such a terrific passer and his vision and all these different things. Like that's the bonus on top of everything else. All right. But with Luca now at this phase, like I think if LeBron stays for a couple more years, now granted, like the other day, I think it was last month. They were like, how much longer could you play?
