  Speaker 1: It remains on the I I R is there any side.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Of him coming back this or you know, we haven't

  Speaker 2: been able to get him to turn the corner on it.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: You know, he just hasn't got over the hump there.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: And and uh, I I I don't know, it's gonna
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: have to be a you know, a sudden change. He
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: hasn't quite gotten all the flexibility back that that we
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: liked him to have, and and uh, he's working hard
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: at it, but it just hasn't really you know, happened yet.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: You've talked about opportunities for the team.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I think the championship opportunities.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: But what does this present for the team? Having played
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: semi well in Dallas? What's the opportunity that's there for
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: them to go down there? And uh, yeah, I thought
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: we'd played better than that, but uh, that's okay, that's alright.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: It it's a huge opportunity for us. You know, we'd
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: we'd we missed out on the Thursday night a couple
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: of weeks ago, and uh didn't didn't play like we're capable.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: But uh uh.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Coming back and bouncing back against Dallas in a very
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: difficult setting and the situation as well, this is this
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: is really important for us. It's a really important opportunity.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: We need to get this, this this fourth quarter of
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: this season rolling, and this is our chance. This is
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: the start of the fourth quarters. I'm looking at it
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: and uh, we need to make a push here to
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: to make some noise for this season. And it's got
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: this is our first shot, so we're going for it.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: It's a championship opportunity in every way. And wasn't too
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: long ago we were down there in the playoffs, you know,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: so we know what this is gonna feel like and
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: what's gonna be like.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: We got to take advantage of it. How did you
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: feel like when we went with kind of made buy
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: and all that.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: And we're very fortunate, you know, now that the Thursdays
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: are over, we're very fortunate to have a few days.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: You can tell.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: You can tell the guys are bouncing around pretty good,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: and it's a good it's a good boost for them
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: coming back. So hopefully we'll take advantage of that there else.
