00:00I had never seen, I've seen Luca like that where he's like, I've been waiting so long
00:22to go show everybody I've been waiting so long to show. And you know what? It was almost
00:27as if Jason Kidd has been whispering in his ear all week. Hey, when you show up, you got
00:32to, you got to make this crowd love you. You got to give them a reason. And when he walked
00:37out onto the court and start the first play that went to Gafford, I was like, Oh my gosh,
00:42he can pass from the post. What are we doing right now? And then you just started to see
00:46more and more of his offensive arsenal. But Kevin, they finished the game with 18 blocks,
00:5318 blocks. Like that was, I was, everybody was committed to defense in this game. That whole
01:00first half I was like, okay. And then I tweeted it around somewhere in the middle of the first
01:06quarter. And I said, if he could just stay and everybody replied back, he can't. And I was
01:16like, yeah, no, but which is, which is interesting because you know, like he's played more games
01:22in the last three years than Luca, but he has been, we didn't get all the way through
01:27three quarters. He had scored 26 points before you, before we go there, PJ looked like he
01:34was able to do some different stuff defensively too, because of what Anthony Davis provided
01:39as, as the four. And so it looked like PJ could. And so anytime the smaller guys, the
01:45forwards and guards went to the basket, PJ was on them blocking shots. It felt like,
01:50okay, what Nico said was right. They really want to focus on the defensive end of the
01:55court. And it looked like they were a real team defense.
