And we are back, folks here on The Michigan Insider on the Big 1050.

And online at the big 1050.com, Sam Webb, Mr. IroI, tribe on the other side.

It is a basketball kind of morning, even though it's a football week.

We're going to be down in Chicago watching Michigan play Wrigley Field.

Can't wait for that.

Great show, great, great pregame show we're going to do with the Michigan football alumni of Michigan can't wait for that

Mo's can't manned most can'tina down there but basketball this morning we got Tuesdays

KBA coming up on the other side.

But in keeping with the basketball theme, Ira and I were talking about the Pistons in the break.

And don't look now.

But the Detroit Pistons, have you looked at the standings, Mr. Windrime?

Yes, Sam.

I know it's, you know, 10 or 11 games is a very small sample size, but I just think about that same small sample size, say, two years ago.

Right?

It was 0 for 10.

So, yes, it's a great start to the year.

We talked about this a little bit yesterday, and I was waiting for you to come back to get your thoughts on specifically on one guy.

Because a couple nights ago, Jalen Duren went home, so he had a chance to go back in front of the home crowd. But that dude was a walking double double at this stage of his career. And the development each and every year for him. I mean, we know about Cade. And yes, he took too many shots last night and they'll move on from that. But they still won the game.

But like Jalen Dern is turning into a true dude in the NBA. And he's like, right there. He's he's becoming one of those guys that you know what you're going to get from him every single night. Like by half time, I think he had a double double last night. Yeah, man, he is taking his game up another notch. It has been noticeable

how much of a force he's been around the rim. I mean, he has been, and it's not just been

dunking. That's, of course, he is, he has been, and it's not just been dunking.

That's, of course, he is, he is a constant lob threat.
