Like it's just a non-answer.

So I think that kind of summarized it like it's.

The Lakers, they're fine, but this is not like, they are no longer deferring to him.

It's very clear.

And the JJ, like all these hires were part of that too.

Like everyone forgets before the Luka trade, they were really signaling this idea that we are changing our ways.

Like if you listen to the JJ Redick press conference, it's fascinating to go back to.

They're talking about player development, the need of changing your ways in the second apron.

They were talking about like they were going to make some player development app, which I don't know.

We should look into if they ever did that.

Like this was a whole different ethos that the Lakers were preaching.

Then Luka falls into the lap and things change.

But I think they were sort of on their way to moving on from LeBron.

Brawny, I mean, I don't know if it's not that you didn't know.

To me, it's been interesting that Brawny sort of, he's faded into the background.

And I think that's a testament to, everyone likes Brawny.

Like, it's really, it sounds simple.

But Brawny, by all accounts, is a really good kid and works hard and just kind of understands his place and is not anyone's face.

And it's, again, it's nothing you didn't know.

But I think it's just like, he's just another one of the players.
