  Speaker 2: off a Super Bowl away And how does it How

• 0:54
  Speaker 2: when you were trying to run it forward, run it back?
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, uh, I just think the mindset, you know,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: it's kind of different. First time we were trying to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: defend it this time. It really doesn't matter not saying
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: that we're not going to try to win, but last
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: year is not gonna help us. We gotta go out
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and do it again and you know, do do what
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: we did and establish ourselves early and you know, keep
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: that going.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: I just have to understanding the Mike's defense. The guy's
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: moving faster now despite.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Getting the use movies. Yeah, guys are guys are I
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: mean you could tell now defensively like it's it's more
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: like problem solving. Now guys are getting getting a look
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: that doesn't match what we're used to or what we've
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: seen in the past. And instead of like just freaking
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: out going back to rules what you've been taught and
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: nine times ten that's the right, you know, right way
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: to go about it. So I think guys have just
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: taken the next step mentally in this defense.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Saw the good things for NICKI minios or rookie, What
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: do you think.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Is next for having? Now he's got a four year
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: unders though, Man, it's too extent. Man. Nick's knicks a
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: hell of a player. Knicks got all the tools, the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: abilities that anybody in the world could ask for. Now
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: it's about maybe next step for Nick would be you know,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I guess classroom, maybe just taking steps, you know, as
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: far as just knowing what players are before. But Nick's
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: a student of the game. Nick's been doing that, so
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I expect him to be dominant again.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Good.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I appreciate y'all.
