Ah, all right. We're not going to get back down that rabbit hole anymore. We're not going to have that conversation. I'm not going to do that. Although we might have an ah moment here in this conversation because we're going to talk a little Pistons before we move forward. So John, the Pissons found a way in the first round to force a game six and a game seven. and for that matter,

for in their first four elimination games in this postseason,

they won them. The problem is they had one more elimination game and they lost. And that was the one in the end that they had to get back home and it was disappointing. And we've already talked about a lot about the difference between, you know, the regular season, the postseason and this team, you know, going through the steps. But in the end, and Eric's a great example to this because Eric is as diehard of Pistons fan as you can get. And that game was on Sunday. It is now Friday. And they're, at least from Eric's perspective, we've gotten to a lot of perspective within this week, Trajan Langdon has media availability. They have some work to do.

But we can celebrate this team.

This is a team to celebrate.

And right now they look like maybe the team in Detroit of the four pro teams, they may be

the one with the arrow pointed most upward at the moment, sadly.

Three years ago, yeah, go ahead.

You've taken that bed.

So, right. Good job, Bickerstaff. Three years ago, yeah, go ahead. You've taken that bed. So, all right.

Good job, Bickerstaff.

Three years ago, would you have taken that bed?

I don't think so.

I thought the wings are the ones about a bust loose.

So, kudos to J.B. Bickersstaff.

Again, I still think he's the best coach in the NBA.

Again, getting these guys to play defense, which is hard to do these days. They do it. They seem to buy into the team concept. You're missing a couple guys. And I know he needs K.A. Cunningham. And Charles Brockley said it. Has any NBA player have more on his shoulders than Kade Cunningham does? And I doubt it. You can score 39 points, and no one else scores 20. And if you've got to do night in, night out, it gets rough. He's a clear to your franchise. I've seen some interviews with him recently, actually. One's my son, Teddy dug up on YouTube and whatnot. I didn't realize he's a vegetarian, maybe even a vegan.

Obviously a healthy guy.

He's not going to burn out.

He's not going to party his way to oblivion,

unlike some former Dallas Mavericks we could name.
