  • Who would you say their biggest foe potentially could be, who see and see people forget.

  • But I'm looking at the Golden State Warriors you're talking about, Uh, Steph Curry, a guy who who's a generational talent, I think a guy that you know, change the n b A in my eyes, coming back after almost a full season arrest.

  • Clay Thompson, Draymond Green.

  • That core is still there, and those guys are hungry and and with them getting a high draft pick and and, uh, Andrew Wiggins to that mix, um, they're gonna be scary.

  • They're gonna be scared.

  • They're only a few pieces away to getting back to where they need to be or where they wanna be or where they wa.
