A lot of fun. Today's episode of the show guys doing this solo today, but wanted to share my

notebook notes on the Denver versus Lakers game from yesterday that was a really interesting one for a bunch of different reasons, namely just the performance of the bench and, you know, the short minutes that the starters played about 25 minutes.

Everybody in this, everybody in the Denver roster played about

25 minutes in this game. And I think there were some interesting data points that came out of it.

And so in the first two segments, just going to go through the detailed notes that I have.

And then in the final segment, turn my attention a little bit more towards the future and

look at the matchup with the clippers match up with the

raptors and what just what is denver trying to accomplish at the final couple of days here it's

crazy to me that the nuggets are already almost through the seating round we waited so long for

basketball to get here and here we are three, three days left, basically, for Denver

in their regular season before the playoffs began. It's just, it's such a whirlwind. And I think it's sort of

in many ways a preview mentally as a fan, but this is also, I think, true for the people inside the

bubble, the players inside the bubble, just kind of a mental preparation for how quickly

things are going to move once you're inside.

There's no, you know, real opportunity for teams to sort of ease into the playoffs or ease

into any of this.
