00:00They're 11-9, which to me is they should be a little over 500.

00:05I mean, I'm not saying really anything different than you are.

00:07They just had them at 41-1⁄2.

00:08They're on pace for 44.

00:10I think that their baseline expectation should be the sixth seed

00:13in the Eastern Conference, their game out of the sixth seed

00:16in the Eastern Conference.

00:17And I may just add one more time, they haven't even played that well.

00:22So you should expect this team to remain an Eastern Conference

00:27playoff middler.

00:28Yeah, they should be.

00:30Given the competition and given the fact that Jalen Brown is good.

00:34I get a kick out of listening to Gaspar.

00:36I was listening a little bit on the weekend as well.

00:38Just continue to try and defend Jalen Brown for, I guess,

00:42him underachieving this year.

00:43I don't even think Brown's underachieved.

00:45I think this is exactly what you should expect

00:47and what they're kind of already fulfilling,

00:49which is Jalen Brown as a number one.

00:54Just by the dint of him being a number one in the NBA,

00:58with an average roster, in an average Eastern Conference,

01:02has them in the middle of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

01:05That's what they are.

01:06That's what they should be.

01:07And you shouldn't expect anything less.

01:09And you shouldn't expect anything else.
