  Speaker 3: So I think I had one, But it just felt
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: like me a little bit, So I was happy.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: How encouraging is it for you to find your game
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: like this this quickly and then to see the team
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: come along, have the defensive effort as well, and just
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: have that all come together. What kind of confidence is
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: to give you about your new team?
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Great confidence?
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: You know, I remember when was the last time I
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: won here? So you know, it's very tough to play
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: here against that team, so you know, just to one
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: like that and it's it's an amazing win for us
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: and gives me a lot of confidence moving forward.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Made a clear post game that he wants the ball
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: to go through you and you run the offense and
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: then Lebron and Austin will get their shifts when they're staggering.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: Kind of the minutes, it felt like you're the ball.
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: More in your hands than I picking rolls and mismatch
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: on thing. I guess, how comfortable are you feeling within
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: the offense and just kind of getting a sense of
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: your teammates and everything.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Like like like I said, you know, every day
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: is going to get better. You know, I'm getting to
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: learn learn the place. You know they are similar, but
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: you know all they have different names, so but I'm
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: getting to learn that. But you know, us three, I
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: think depends on the day. You know, everybody has so
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: much talent. So I think today the way we did,
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: the way we shared the ball was amazing and the
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: ball moving was amazing.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: It's a pre game that in order for you guys
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: to kind of get where you want to be.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Talk about championship. Denver is one of the groups that
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: you have to figure out a way to be.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: How meaningful is it just to get this win knowing
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: that they could be a TVC down.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: The line big time. Like I said, it's very hard
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: to win here and putting against these guys. I think
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: our defensive effort was there from from the beginning. You know,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: we were the more physical team, and that's what we're
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: gonna do every night.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah, looka I know obviously, like the trade was one
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: of the things about it was obviously the shock of
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: it and leaving guts, but another thing was you left
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: behind a really good team that had just gone to
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: the finals. Having like seeing your new team play at
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: a level like this tonight. How does that hit you
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: about its potential, this group's potential moving forwards in the immediacy, not.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Just right now.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think our goals no, I think I know
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: our goal is to win championship. You know, that's our
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: only goal, and I think we have the thing for that.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: You know. Obviously the chemistry with me and the guys,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: you know, is gonna take a little time still, but
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: you know, like you saw today, I think it's getting
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: better and better.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Specific game.
• 3:25
  Speaker 7: You guys definish think the second few had the season
• 3:29
  Speaker 7: attire first few. How encourage were you not by not
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: just by the effort, but the actual execution of that strategy,
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: of that game plan and how you guys see the doubles.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the game plane game point was amazing.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: You know, obviously we all know what kind of play yokichaes.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Uh So it's very tough to guard him. Uh So
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: the way we did today, Uh, I think it was unbelievable.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Uh And we stick to the plane, uh, to the
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: game plan for the forty eight minutes, uh, which is amazing.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: And Jesse said after the game, you know that's that's
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: a big thing.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Look, obviously you've been aware of Lebron and kind of
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: what he does for a long time. I wanta I
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: want to ask about Austin Reeves though. Are there anything
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: that surprised you or oppressed you more from kind of
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: playing with him and seeing that the kind of player
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: that he's grown into.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Oh, it doesn't surprise me. You know, I've been watching
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: him a lot. Uh when we play them, you know,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: it was hard to guard him, and he's just it's
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: just a different guy. He's one of those guys that
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: just make makes a difference for him being just on
