It's the Lockdown Podcast Network, your team every day.

Back here for the long-awaited part two.

I'm Nate Duncan, joined by John Hollinger of The Athletic.

If you haven't listened to Part 1, definitely give that a listen when we

talked about how it is that we're going through and ranking some of these organizations.

So, and we did about the top half of the league in our view.

Obviously, we have some disagreements. We spent some substantial time on that.

So who is your highest remaining team, John?

We did not talk about it in part one.

Well, I'm not sure because we kind of mentioned Dallas,

but we didn't really talk about them.

That's who I wanted to talk about first as well.

Okay.

Okay, sure. Fire away're they're probably my at least for me you had some other teams higher like a Denver

Indiana you had higher than i did um but they're the last one that i would consider kind of an

above average organization that we

haven't talked about yet, at least in my view. So they have weird positives and negatives,

I think. They're not super organized. It's basically, it's, you know, almost a two-man

show between Cuban and Donnie. They have a great coach that they've been able to keep.

Obviously, they got a lot of mileage out of the Dirk Novitsky pick in particular, and they

seem to have made the right call putting their assets on the table for Donsich.

We'll see how the Porzingis part of it works out.
