All right. Here we are. Happy Saturday morning to everybody.

Hope everybody's doing good. Everybody has their coffee. Everybody is

I don't know, recovering from a busy week. It's been, um, it's been quite a few days.

I, uh, I'm not quite sure I, I fully wrap my head around everything, um, especially since we had to, like, spend a day or so rationalizing the initial signings and then Kemba and now Julius.

I'm happy.

I'm a very happy man.

I am still trying to...

I don't know.

There's a part of me that's trying not to get too excited about everything because I feel like while this went about as good as I personally

feel like I could have hoped for,

the thing I'm still trying to wrap my head around the most

is how good the rest of the East is, and I guess probably related to that, not necessarily

how good the rest of the East is, but how much parity is in the rest of the conference.

And I keep, I was actually, I was listening to, I think it was, it was a low post

podcast, either low post or hoop collective. I always get my podcast confused. And they

were talking about the Bulls. And I think one of the, I forget who it was, was saying like, yeah, they could be, you know, fourth in the east, maybe if everything breaks right, but they could also be 12th.

And they kind of went through that after the first couple teams, you know, Brooklyn, Milwaukee, and then whatever you want to say about Philly.

And I guess you want to maybe, you know, you have on the

other side of the conference just really aren't trying to win, or rather, I should say,

one team that isn't trying to win in Orlando, a Pistons team that doesn't really care if it

wins or not, and then a Cavs team that is trying to win and may just not be very good at it. But like the rest of the conference is

and I think there are arguments for a lot of other teams. And so I've already, now that we have pretty much our free agency settled, I've already kind of moved on to what is this team going to look like on the court.
