And I mean, he was seven of eight on twos, one of seven on threes, five turnovers.

I thought this was probably his worst defensive game of the series, even worse than game one when when Brunson went at him all those times.

I mean, I just I thought he was like not competitive.

great defensively in that game in that Cleveland meltdown.

Like a lot of people were like, no, he played good defense and Brunson just made tough shots.

I thought he played like, okay to like defense and Brunson made some tough shots, some shots that are easier for him, but look tough.

And then some easy shots tonight, you know, they come right out of halftime.

He loses the end and OB on a three for a pin down.

He loses track of McHale bridges under the rim.

It turns into a quick pass layup.

Like those are the ones you can't, you can't have.

And look,

They just bet against Garland.

Garland's health has been iffy.

This was a big all-in year for them.

And that's why the Mobley thing is interesting because you just traded up 10 years in age Garland for Harden.

You can justify that.

Do you really want to go up X amount?

Whoever it is.

Because that's the trade ship, right?
