Please, if you're watching on YouTube, give us a like. We'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks to the morning crew a little earlier than usual and they're up in Adam with us. I appreciate it. Everybody jumping on. All right. I love the playoffs. You get to prep and dive deep and know everything. There is about a team. I watched two of our four games. The Christmas Day

game is pretty useless to watch other than Craig Boehler Jacks jacket and thorough Bailey. It was the night before Christmas poem that he read about the jazz. That was the highlight of that game for anything relevant to this playoff series. The second game was amazing. Incredible game down to the wire and a lot of fun to watch. The jazz and the mavericks played three times in 31 days this year. And so it was pretty interesting. The last one.

It doesn't have a lot of value. No dawn of no bogey, no white side. So and Dallas shoots the lights out. So I probably won't dig into that one. But I certainly will watch the March 7th game, watch the February 22nd game last night. This show today, really, I'm trying to prep you at a level that's actually understandable, not just an enane amount of numbers and information, but there's going to be a lot of information. Basically, prepped endlessly last night.

So I'm going to kind of take you through a bunch of notes and who the Dallas Mavericks are and dig into what the matchups we expect to be and what we can learn from how the teams played each other in those two game in those middle two games to know what we're going to see this should prep you pretty well tomorrow's show will be a crossover with locked on Mavericks.

So we'll deal with them, huh? No, they're great. And then and I can fire them. So really in the playoffs, we go to everything. No, I would never do that. And then Friday, Thursday show will drill into kind of what's going on with us in the clutch and Friday, whatever remaining probably more of a player breakdown preferences, directions, guys want to go things of that nature.

So first thing is Dallas is way better since the trade. That's the most important thing. They were 33 and 23 on February 10th when they traded Christapps for Zingus their seven foot three Latvian center. Everyone loves so much. And it's actually just not good.

He's a horrendous isolation defender. He's a bad pick and roll defender. He's not that good and offensive player. And he takes a huge amount of oxygen.

So simply by addition by subtraction Dallas got way better. Then Spencer, Dinwitty played well. And Davos Patons has played okay. Since the trade, which really kind of tells you who they are, they're 19 and seven, they're 18 and five when Spencer, Dinwitty plays.

The fifth best offense, the fourth best shooting team, they take the most threes of any team in the NBA. So our math advantage of threes goes out the window in this matchup.

I have the second best half court offense in the NBA.

But they do not run at all. There's 30th in transition, both inefficiency and in opportunities and only are in transition 11% of the time. That's great for the jazz.

Rudy go bears are most impactful player. And if he's in transition, he has no impact. So if the jazz, you know, they're very, very good in the half court that Lucas great. There is a reason why they don't run Lucas terrible in transition.

And so, and then by the way, I'm doing all of us assuming Luca will play, though, I'm doubtful with that strained calf, but still going to prep that way.

It's actually quite good with Luca off the floor. We'll dig into that, but it's not the same thing as Luca being off the floor for, you know, an extended playoff series.
