 You know, we gave ourselves an opportunity. I thought the first half we weren't locked in. Our defense was subpar. We obviously weren't making shots, but our defense was poor. But I thought in the second half we were much better. You know, we were a shot or two from making a really tight game, so disappointed in the loss. But again, I thought our second half was better. Not the outcome you wanted, but how encouraging was it to see Alan Crabb get cooking the way he did? Huge, huge. Just, like, you could feel it coming, too, right? These past couple games, even though he didn't make every shot tonight, he was fantastic. And I still think he's hesitating too much. Like, we need him to shoot five more times a game. So hopefully he's woken up and is in his groove now. Is that kind of what you had talked about? You said you saw it coming in Alan. And guys eventually are going to revert to the mean. And now Joe looks like he's kind of gone in the opposite direction. Listen, if you're a numbers guy, those things end up working out. I think it was bound to happen with Joe. I think Joe's playing his tail off. I think he's probably a little fatigued with that, too. This is a time in a season where guys start getting a little tired. He's had a bunch go in and out. I don't know how many shots he's had going in and out. But he provides so much other stuff for us that shooting to come back. When you look at the big picture, you guys have played more road games than anybody in the league, if I'm not mistaken. So what kind of physical toll has that taken this early? No, we talked about that today. But there's no way around NBA schedule. There's just no way around it. And I think it's going to help us improve in the long run. Like, having to fight through these tough schedule, tough travel, I think in the long run, it's going to make us a more resilient team. Let's start with Ronde in the second half on Barnes, looking for some similar last night. Barnes had 18 points in the first half. He wanted to slow him down, put JD with that second unit. I thought it was a good change. And Ronde's got to do that for us. And it's a point guard, a three-man, four-man. He's got to be our stopper. Was that more of a match-up thing, or was that something we could see more of going forward? Oh, I think it was a match-up thing. I think when a guy on the other team has got it going, I think we have, you know, Ronde is our ace in the hole there. And, you know, we talked about Alan Crabb, but I think Ronde's starting to play better. I think we got some guys back on this trip that were struggling a little bit. I think Ronde put Ronde in that category, too, playing better. I mean, Ronde was, I mean, he was the nominal starter, and then he got hurt over the summer, so that's what I'm saying. I'm not ready to go there yet. You know, I like how our first unit's playing. I like JD and that first unit. I love how he moves the ball with that first unit. So, you know, it's something we could look out down a row, but I think we'll probably stay status quo for now. How hard is it to back up last night's defensive performance with another one tonight? I guess the team that has a lot of offensive weapons. Sure. And I thought Berea and Devin Harris were huge. Two veteran guys came in, and obviously Barnes had a great game, but Devin and Berea, darn it, I wish she didn't play tonight. We would have been a heck of a lot better off, but listen, it's a challenge for a young player. You see, Jared Allen, he's got white side last night, and now tonight you've got Deandre Jordan, and, you know, to come back with the same energy as you did the night before, I think that's part of, you know, our growth, our young players' growth. D'Angelo, the same thing, like, guy's playing great, you know, and now the next step for those guys is playing great on back-to-backs, too. Coach, good, aren't you? Being that you've been able to see him up close. Yeah. The first time I saw him, and very impressed, I can't believe how calm, cool, and collected he is. He's, he plays at his pace. You can't dictate his pace. He gets where he wants on the court, obviously, has great shots. I thought, when we were making a comeback, he hit some tough shots. I thought he hit a couple of daggers where I thought we played great defense, and that's what the really good ones do. They make tough shots when they're guarded. I was very, very impressed with him tonight.
