I was wondering if you could take me back to Monday.

What was it like finding out that you and so I had to go into protocol.

And what were you able to do in quarantine?

And just how relieved are you that this wasn't a longer protocol?

Or or perhaps something worse?

Yeah.

I mean, super relieved.

You know, we were both healthy first and foremost, but, you know, we're playing.

We were playing so well.

We're playing so well.

Um, you know, it was unfortunate that we had to take the hiatus, but, you know, safety's first and, you know, way acknowledged that first and foremost let's move over Thio somewhere.

Hey, Paul, Congrats on the win.

Uh, first off, who had the better poster dunk was a U or cu I, uh, both this was a tie way.

Both had a great on then, just over the last couple of weeks, you've seen at least to me, just more aggressive, going to the basket, finishing at the rim.

Is that a thing you've looked at?

At least try.

Try Thio, make it up.

You know, Uh, something just to go out the ring harder.

Yeah.

Just go at the rim attack with force, you know, and just use my athleticism, you know, until the athleticism is going.

Still got a little left in the tank.

Can we move over?

Toe camera.

Hey, Paul, when you talk about your ability, um, to bounce back quickly and games after you have taken some time off you come back, man, it seems like you're and flow right away.

Will you talk about kind of what goes into your preparation so you could be ready for that opportunity?

Yeah.

I mean, it's just a ton of film coming in the games, seeing how teams regarding seeing how I could score, how it could be aggressive.

Um, you know how I can make my teammates better.

It's a lot of preparation that's coming into these games that I haven't done so in my in my career.

So, um, I just got a great team behind.

So prepare me for these games.

It was like a few more questions will move over to Miriam A P G.

Good to see you, man.

Um, what do you make of these guys?

watching from afar the last couple games.

I mean, they play great, you know, They play great down.

Three guys.

I thought they really brought it together.

They play for one another.

They didn't make excuses.

They went out there.

They knew they had a job to do it.

They carried out the job.

I thought, you know, they could have very easily one in Atlanta, but I know it's tough.

You know, those guys retired guys playing minutes that they're not used to.

It is a bit of adjustment in adversity floor for him, but I love the way they've been playing.

They've been keeping it going.

I'm proud of those guys.

You know, It just made it that much better for us coming back.

No being being back with our group.

We have time for two more more of it so far by and they were in on the car again.

If you G You had mentioned how proud of the team you were during the height issue and CO.

I had, and I wanted to ask about Reggie Jackson, how proud you've been to him.

He's a guy that goes from not having minutes.

Thio suddenly and You know, in three games, he's averaging 15, 6 and five.

Extremely proud of Reggie.

The ultimate professionally.

Stay ready.

He stayed engaged, stayed locked in in a lot of ways.

He led the team.

Not only tonight in the past two games.

Prior to tonight.

You know, he's just an ultimate leader for this team.

Super positive, you know?

And when his number was called, he delivered.

He was ready.

What was going on?

Pop?

Uh, you have talked about recently.

Talked about how you just, you know, becoming a playmaker embracing miss takes, you know, can you just elaborate on what's that progress like to you?

Especially this point in your career how you're still just learn from your mistakes and getting better as a player?

Yeah.

I mean it, Z, you gotta have fun with it.

You gotta have fun with what you do.

You gotta be a stew.

You gotta wanna learn.

Want to be better on you.

Gotta be comfortable being uncomfortable.

Um, that's really what it came down to me coming into this season.

Try to put myself in uncomfortable situations, whether it's aggressive defenders, where it's traps, it splits, you know, just throwing myself in into that.

No overalls the road.

So, like I said, turnovers will cut down.

I will take care of the ball right now.
