I was surprised because that was the goal but it was great to at least take that burden in in hit that a accomplishment of earning uh scholarship at ucla. Okay here's one of the things that i always found to be so that the national champs your team had like eleven dudes that played me. It was like something crazy. Trump's number due to play the like everybody. I mean end honestly chris. Johnston play. But if chris johnson was now like guys a stretch guys small four five news unbelie perfect perfect outright so unbelievable talented team in ninety five. Wednesday's chance of you guys just have to do and if you wanna walked in that locker room and asked how many guys are going to the nba. Everybody would raise their hands right everyone. When did in your mind you think. Like hey agent agents by my my was. My thought would say the going into my sophomore year. Actually i take that back. Doug if i had to revisit pry my sophomore year i ended up starting but you know we we have a number one glass coming in and ninety seven ninety eight followed by another number. One recruiting class matt barnes. Doron rush rayong as strom whistle. I mean they were loaded so coming in put it in all that works starting for a game or two and then not seen the court until the end of my sophomore year in like sporadic minutes. It was eyebrows a reality check. I've thought about transferring. And everything. But i was like you know what why my transfer. Yeah i can play but getting this degree from ucla. In southern california. And i knew. I wanted to go to grad school so at the end of that sophomore years when i started working for arm tell him bearing left gone pro all. Ucla guys were saw assigning with and at the time which telemann associates and then that was my segue into the business at nineteen. So many thanks. Gosh there's so much stuff okay. I make i make the case bearing tours. Acl on a filthy crossover dunk on a dude In in the ncaa tournament. I know we were in the same region. I i saw. I think we're sought out and which that was still there. I've never seen. Somebody turned their acl on a more nasty played with matt. That was until people all the time i was only landed. When he jumped he jumped so high. Duggan i was looking down the court. He jumped so high is head was at the rim i level. He pulled himself up with his momentum. I don't think bear nuha high was so it was on the landed. He put all that way. always waited on one One leg when he landed in. That's what made a pops. It wasn't interested. He doesn't like me. I still don't know why we haven't ever left chop it up at some point in time interesting because my because my my dad was like when i the year before he when he was a senior i was sitting out after transfer notre dame and they basically like look. We get baron. We're gonna take baron. And if not and i was like people second choice georgia tech second choice kansas. I was somewhere down the line. Whatever anyway but my dad was like look. That's the best high school point guard i've ever seen used to jilani gardner used to be the guy that he got was the next johnson then he was like barons. The best i've ever seen. He still had a very very good very good career. What would he have been like. Had he not i doug i think baroness was such if you really revisit that in that's our generation ninety nine when he tore ninety eight when he toured now is still at a time. When the acl surgery like the procedure it could go either way like it wasn't like our endre present. You come back stronger so we were right. There were like you know barron tears it. In march he was back playing by the end of that same year. That's the type of freaky was a lot of people. Don't know this i- kobe would come to our practices. The following year barren wasn't cleared play him and kobe. Playing one on one on the sideline and barons wearing this huge knee. Brace so i don't honestly if he if he doesn't tear it. I think he's still the same blair. Maybe maybe he's the number one player because maybe we can go in in march but that sophomore year he comes back and he's healthy and he was a highlight reel still goes number three well. Would i remember his first game back against us. I got around the game time. Whatever henry he walked into a technical foul but he wasn't he wasn't moving yet. You still have any of that. Brace at that. That would not let you december right november december yet at. Yeah if you think about that. That's only eight months after the injury nine months or yeah crazy crazy even in today's standards thomas overnight and you know it's eleven to twelve months until they're you know he's fully back is what they're doing.

"You put him in a room with any five star recruits. I mean you. And i have dealt with mike brown enough very charming very authentic. Just a really good dude.

He's using at the college recruit to fall in love with them. Because of the things you said. I coached stuff. I coached the brown and know what it takes to get to the nba finals with a generational talent like that and then he would win over every parent. I mean he's. He's got that kind of vibe about him. The one thing i would say is he does have unfortunately he sort of that. Nba retread. that's not in. That's probably why he's not being mentioned as far as these head. Coaching and opportunities is concerned. I almost wonder if he should if you wanted to really be an nba head coach again. Should he kinda go. The nate mcmillan route and kind of go find a lead assistant job for an unproven coach. Who may get fired within the next year and then he just sort of a sense to that job and then crushes it and then just takes over that job in perpetuity.

St i at least finish out his contract which i think is right on and it and if he and if he leaves. I don't think that they would just hand the job over to mike brown right like you want to be in a position where the coaches fired midseason and then the natural thing to do is just promote the lead assistant. So maybe if. You're mike brown you go do that. I don't know our last question is from at shoddy hooper. What should golden state be looking for in the twenty twenty one nba draft barring trades. Are they looking only for nba. Ready guys the purely best players available or a mix of both. I'm gonna let you take the lead on this one. So what should they do. In what will they do are two different questions with. Maybe.

"You put him in a room with any five star recruits. I mean you. And i have dealt with mike brown enough very charming very authentic. Just a really good dude. Yeah easy to work with and just immediately. There's an immediate charisma about him. So if you put them in a in a living room for ten minutes with a college recruit. He's using at the college recruit to fall in love with them. Because of the things you said. I coached stuff. I coached the brown and know what it takes to get to the nba finals with a generational talent like that and then he would win over every parent. I mean he's. He's got that kind of vibe about him. The one thing i would say is he does have unfortunately he sort of that. Nba retread. that's not in. That's probably why he's not being mentioned as far as these head. Coaching and opportunities is concerned. I almost wonder if he should if you wanted to really be an nba head coach again. Should he kinda go. The nate mcmillan route and kind of go find a lead assistant job for an unproven coach. Who may get fired within the next year and then he just sort of a sense to that job and then crushes it and then just takes over that job in perpetuity. Right because nate mcmillan's going to keep the hawks job. I can't imagine that want so that's not happening. We'll stay right. Steve kerr's as much job security as any coach in the league.

"Small balkan work would dream on and siaka as you're five and your four but until you get to that i would have some questions defensively. Yeah i agree with everything. You're saying it'd be interesting to. I mean i guess it would be kind of a homecoming for andrew wiggins toronto I guess maybe that that would help. The warriors chances a little bit but It's definitely i think of all the names that we've we've heard. I think it's the most realistic In terms of an all star caliber player. But it's not it's not a it's not a home run necessarily for either team if it does happen so our first question. This is from at tom. Bomb thirty three five. Have you heard anything about golden state looking into potential trade for lillard. Since the news broke yesterday that he might want out of portland. We we've talked a little bit about this in the past. It came out yesterday. Report from chris. Hanes saint basically indicating. That lillard may want out of portland. Now some background here. I know chris hanes pretty well. He was on the warriors. Be with me for a couple of years He is as well connected with alert as anyone. So if he's reporting this. I'm one to believe that. Want to believe that he is getting this from lowered himself. And from lewis camp and that they gave the green light for christine's to write that which which comes across like lillard legitimately is unhappy and isn't necessarily at the point where he's asking for a tray but he wanted to be known that he is looking at his options potentially and so. I think that the next few weeks gave me riddick. Really critical for that situation on how. How develops i think a lot of. It's just gonna depend on the decisions portland megs how they handle the blowback from this chauncey billups higher. Which i don't think they weren't necessarily expecting This kind of blowback and what they're able to do in terms of putting together more of a contending caliber roster around lillard but if it does reach a breaking point lillard decides. He wants out of portland. How of a shot. Do you think the worst have. I think they have a very realistic shot. Because the other thing about this demon out of portland right. We saw the first part of the the superstar demanding trade playbook this weekend with with the leaked report to kris haines implying that he might be unhappy in portland and i agree with you. Chris is reporting it. In in terms of damian lillard. There's nobody closer on the league. Damian lillard i it probably from david personal france. Yeah so. This is sort of part one in the superstar playbook as far as demanding a trade is concerned the next part would be a of following part of this would be..

"I remember mentioning him as a potential trade Target because toronto is a bit of a crossroads here right. They are coming off that twenty nine thousand finals a couple of years ago. They don't have that. Kawhi leonard type of superstar anymore and on blossomed in that twenty nineteen run. But he's not. He's not talented enough to kind of be that type of player for you right. He's not going to be quite level. Kawhi leonard level type of guy who could build a championship around. He's a good supporting player. Right he's probably at best.

I'm a kind of implies that we're neither fast nor furious right in true fast and furious and well us well. I don't know i might be tempted podcasts. Furious i'm pretty fast. Jesus name we also had two fast. Two curious zack. Like we said that in the slack. Shit i'm like this muscle podcast day. Somebody's already done this right. Yeah that's got be what i did. Check surprising lack of fast and furious. Specific podcasts. I would imagine that every movie has been casted at some point. Four linking them all together. We're going to be in our own lane. Were coming up with some good brainstorming sessions of categories. Like some simple ones of like the best quote and like the wto seen from that movie. I think we gotta do at the end of everyone to trae. Thought about this after we were talking like we got a rank them like as we watch them like. Where's that one. The best does that always continue. And we'll do that. We got a bunch of other funny ideas to might even get wives involved in this thing. It'll be great well. jd.

Yeah probably august and september and are we watching them in the order of release right trae. We're gonna watch him in release order because the chronological timeline order. Can you get a little wacky. We're gonna learn once we get into the series that i haven't mentioned it. It does feel like we're going to have to do and shy as this is going to be the next franchise that spins off from fast and furious but there's also a vin diesel short. That set in between some of the movies called los bond the letter and let her legs planning what has happened off. Camera what is what's happened like in the fast and furious verse of whatever you wanna call it now. I don't know who's going back sicko deep to watch those bond laras but we'll have to debate all right well. Hopefully this goes well.

"They were letting them off the hook the a little bit at the start especially you got more comfortable as the game went on because it's tough to play zone against an nba team. They're all such great shooters but it was a hell of a call. I thought by liu and good things happen when man plays generally so that. Sort of a no brainer after the bots entry. But what else did you see from loor or what he's done throughout this entire postseason run. He's coaching his ass off for sure everybody. He presses works. I think they took the bait. And out of the gate deondraye eight and should have been more of a factor not post op guy. But he by far is the biggest player on the floor. There should have been more pick and roll run for him to just draw fouls he should have been able to do that. He shouldn't have nine field goal attempts in this game. They they definitely took them out of their game and they were hang out on the outside. They didn't look like they had a plan for the zone. Which is strange to say with that team out there. But i think that's entirely true. I think clippers dictated absolutely everything. Marcus morris is gonna score over and over and over again. He's going to get devon booker on his back. And they're not gonna put another guy on the not gonna put on kill bridges or jay crowder on him and throw devon booker out on patrick beverley they got out and transition and they decided what they wanted to do in in the sons dinner respond. And it's like the team that has the best dunk always wins recently gates case dictate space. We're going to do it this way. Reggie jackson had the best duck of this game. Yeah yeah jama to dunks. But the first one was amazing. Caught by surprise myself included. Awfully jesus edgy with the sneaky hops. There he had another. I don't know who played better between marcus. Morris in reggie jackson in this one you can convince me one of the other. I'll go yup because like you said morrison's killing booker hitting tough shots. Though they were like baseline away to the middle and then regius huge. Go ahead try. Well marcus morris this shooting like that like. Are you going to change your defense. 'cause marcus morris has beating you probably not like. That's why devon booker stayed there for the whole time. I didn't actually think terrence man was the difference and that's what i thought it was nick. Batum man only played like six minutes in the second half but was everywhere on the second half. He got nineteen minutes. I think only scored two points but he was drawn eight and away from the basket. The ball was moving a lot. He's a little bit more of a passer than man is but passes exactly right eight and has to do more in this game. The guy went from a big beef. Nine offensive rebounds to eleven total. The clippers did a great job gang rebound and have bodies on him almost the old the whole time. But we've been talking about how great ayton has looked in every single round these playoffs. He's been great against the clippers as well and the sun's obviously look their best when he has locked in dominating the paint but last night that was not the case. Just like paul. George the criticism with With he drifts through games and can be a little soft sometimes and that's exactly what it was last night. He just wasn't they weren't utilizing him. I didn't think i didn't think they were running enough. Pick and rolls to get him touches in the lane with everybody else being five to six inches shorter but he also really wasn't demanding. It felt a little bit like the sun's just showed up to take her trip to the finals but they forgot to win the game and play hard. They exact things that have gotten this far in the playoffs. In the first place toughest thing to do is close out a series. You can see why team desperate. They didn't want to go anywhere and they've come back a couple of times already in the postseason in the clips and we keep counting them out and they keep sort of proving everybody wrong so yeah we got a game. Six here now really thought it was over last night. A lot of people did a lot of people are gonna take care of business at home. How do you see this series sort of shaking from here or you just given up at this point. Look i mean. I thought it was angry at myself after the show yesterday. Because i've been like. Don't ride the clippers off. They've seen resilient they keep on coming back. They've been down in all three series and they've never quit at any point even though you know they've they've looked at times but they keep on fighting and tie lose never made an excuse for the travel and the back to back games or in terms of like only day off between games and they're going long sears had played four more games i think than the suns at this point of georgia's played more minutes than anybody in the playoffs right now so then making the it is so easy to write them off but they keep on fighting so i actually do think. Sorry sorry clippers. But i actually do think that kim extended and another another point guard. We haven't really talked about. I think patrick beverley was also impactfully last night. You know i mean he. He's a a frustrating play. Because that line of way you sort of go. Too far is often patrick. Beverley pushing it to the absolute limits. But he is really making an impact. He's getting in people's faces crispell. I mean we. We saw that incident last night. Which i don't think was a flagrant foul at all on patrick beverley. I think that was a very. I think that was the wrong goal. I think the poll. Chris paul was trying to get the contact and patrick. Beverley was floating around screen that that wasn't a flagrant in my opinion. But he got the three free throws out of it with that by the way. Steve javale disagree exactly chevy. Actually he agreed with the different gundy. I think it was. Yeah but anyway the thing is..

"He took eighteen free throws so the jumper wasn't dropping but he was doing other stuff to contribute for the clippers. And that's what. He said he was doing well here too. I can play on both sides. I can rebound i can assist. I can play defense. But also you need paul george to score in the second half. He was on fire playoff p. He's back. baby cousins asked about paul. George lee said give. This dude is flowers man. I don't understand the slander. it's becoming quite silly now. Respect these players man respect these greats cousins calling paul george great. Look i mean he finished top three and mvp but he wants not long ago he is awesome. He just has moments where he is disappears. Trae set or if feels like he's not in the game and you can't really say that over the last stretch here though he's playing the best probably basketball of his career in terms of like being consistently giving you twenty. He again is the playmaker on this team. That's not reggie. Jackson rondos not play. He's the point guard. How impressive you've been with. Pg by incredibly impressed then. I think look i think. Part of the struggle. With paul george and kawhi leonard together is sometimes that line of whose team it is is blurred a little bit. But now that. That's not an issue and paul george. It's clear your the man you're the gun. Same you're gonna be at default point guard. You're going to be a score. You're going to be at clutch. Go you're going to have to go out there and deliver. And he does in those big moments even though he's missed a couple of free throws as we know that's gonna be talking point but he hasn't let that sort of just seep into the next game. He's come back ready and firing. And that i think is really where. Why the clippers are still alive in this series that he's he's put these losses behind him. And that's why i think. He generated this sort of the slander in the playoffs. In the past he's also said some silly things off the in series as well but now he's just letting his game do the talking. And i think it's so important that you know you see some let demarcus cousins. Who's like what what what was he. Even on the team and then tie. Lou throws him out there any just bullied charge a couple of times and really got got some good production out of him. And so paul george edgy. Goes a sign there. That sort of first half slander on is coming from jeff. Van gundy and my jackson was weird because it was like he doesn't need to dominate every single possession. If going that's great for paul. George because you know he's gonna have to step up at some point in that sort of second half now. I thought lou as great as he's been in these playoffs he took a little bit of a risk at the start of that fourth. Quarter leaving georgia. Just a fraction too long. It ended up not costing them. But i also think that's tie bazeley sign of these scientists team. We can't just be paul. George other guys have to go out there and contribute and that that to me is what it is. I mean you got a veteran light. Rhonda who's basically just out of the rotation when they're short handed but he's on the sideline cheering along and that to me is is how tied loose sort of is able to communicate that message. Like if we don't need you just not gonna play you but be ready just in case and that's what causes sort of saying about lewis. He communicates so well with everybody on that team. Whether you the superstar or the bench guy and guys ask really pulling for him implying format. He's record in elimination gains incredible ten and two right now so he took a gamble last night. And he's like you know what we're going to downsize all its and see if the sun's can take advantage of that and they weren't able to and also as again. You sign that. The clippers jumped out there. Seven zero run just to get that showed they were really dialed in and locked in from the start so called the sons of god a little bit and even though the sons did take late late. That would never really able to recover from that because the clippers just knew everything was on the line last night and then superstar delivered in that second half particularly in the third quarter. It was so much fun to watch. Because he's also bring back the mid ryan. She's just not afraid of like you know what that's my shop. I'm going to get more spot. And he was knocking them down last night. Beaten up cam johnson. Whacked him in the jaw. Jae crowder poked. He's just be there as well and he and he stepped up and went right from the free throw line. So paul george i dismiss those turnovers because sure when you got the ball in your hand ninety percent of the time like that you're going to turn it over a couple of times but ultimately he didn't back away from the moment he stepped up and led his team to victory in a in a fantastic performance. Yeah tyler is getting a lot of praise here to task as guys sort of sprinkled in there and deservedly so going with man surprise they went zone to like a pretty early in this game and and it's sort of like i mean van gundy did bring it up on the broadcast and it's like the sun's like weren't even ready for it or something that.

Maybe we'll get to that. Let's get to the game from last night though. The grady clippers stave off elimination. Beat the suns one sixteen one zero two tasks. La lives to fight another day. What do you think net. Why do we doubt these clippers. Is it fun is everybody's just like picking on the clippers. We all doubt that we we all talk about basketball. We'd like to find reasons for a team to make them lose. Essentially before they start playing excuses a injuries out now visas zoo bots was before that game. It was announced. They must be heartbroken over game. To the clipper said screw that. We're not that team from last year. This team wasn't mentally tough enough. They gave up that three one lead last year in the bubble but they said the injuries man. we're going to use that to our advantage. They didn't have a visa. Zubov didn't have a center in the lane but outscored the opponent in the paint fifty eight thirty to twenty six points at thirteen more buckets in the paint than the phoenix suns. We're starting a center. They used their matchups to their advantages. Marcus morris they found him over and over and over against denver booker and the sons were flying giving that up. They dictated that matchup. Tyler saying go at it. He had twenty two points. A series high after scoring single digits in the first four games of the series demarcus cousins against dario saric as a backup center went back to cousins with no zoo bots. He had fifteen a playoff career-high so it is wild because it's been around time not many playoff games under his belt but have really really strange. And then paul george with a playoff career high forty one. He shot seventy five percent and part of that was there's no su- bots in the middle. So he was able to get into the lane and the sun's really couldn't figure that out and they they all banded together. That's the point of this team. I mean they changed their mental makeup from last season. We all them. We all questioned them again. No no starting center. They rebound as a team. They played ball as a team. This is a frigging team and we like to pick on them but they dictated this game from the gecko and the sun's didn't really wanna match up they didn't they didn't want to dictate it themselves so i dunno it's fun. It's fun picking on the clippers. That's just what we do but they absolutely are not the same team and they showed it throat this this whole postseason. So i don't know where this series goes. I mean they. They could definitely win another game. Yeah paul george fantastic their tk scored twenty of his forty one there in the third quarter. Fifteen twenty from the field also thirteen boards. Sec- had some turnovers point guard out. There really have the ball a lot exactly somewhere somewhere ugly. And he was getting killed. I thought jeff. Ganea mark jackson in the first half. They were going here. We're but yeah. Shut them up there in the second half and this i think is his greatest game ever. I really do. the first. Ever clipper with a forty ten five playoff game and a couple weeks ago. You had a game where we were like. Oh is that georgia's best playoff game. I think this is like hands down in an elimination game putting up these numbers and what he did in the second half. What do you think. Paul george was great and as a longtime paul george fan. I just love to see it. But i actually thought the way he played it was pretty smooth and he mentioned it in the post game press conferences. Saying you know marcus. Morris had gone in the first half marcus. Morris scored twenty in the first half. Reggie jackson had twelve in the first quarter. So paul george was kind of able to work himself into the game. Now sometimes with paul george it can feel like he's just drifting out there float through an entire game but clearly about wasn't the case in the third quarter came out on fire twenty points another ten in the fourth quarter and that was what was impressive to me. Was that the clippers. Were ready to play from the jump. Ball monty williams said afterwards we showed up in the first quarter. They played with desperation. There's just somebody out there to answer every single sons. Run marcus morris. Thirteen in the first quarter. Reggie twelve in the first quarter then. It was paul george. Marcus in the second quarter. Paul had eight marquez. Seven p g twenty in the third. Pg ten in the fourth reggie eight in the fourth. There were just always somebody who is ready to say. We see you coming back sons. But not tonight was a gritty win for the clippers which one hundred sixteen points or not necessarily thinking gritty but they played a bunch of small guys out there and they were the bigger battery team. So really great stuff from paul george. I don't know exactly where you put this on the list. It's either one or two with the game. He had earlier in the playoffs this year. But the guy's hitting the glass. He's getting to the rim when he needs to an even in game four when he really struggled from the field i think he went five for twenty right..

"Four and he can't really jump but you know Yeah outside that too. I mean just looking at the year going forward. I mean a james harden. Do you even think that. That's something that the raptors should consider. I know it's been talked about especially now that things have kind of combusted. You know. I think maybe if you look at things if the raptors start five and to you know there's probably a lot less onerous on the idea of going out and getting somebody like james harden But i think at least just before you answer like my my thought process on it process on immediately while i always like four going getting james harden. I don't know how this roster does it without losing either pascal you would have to trade more than just. Oh gee so you could even lose pascal endo g like. I think that that's a. I would not do it personally. If i'm this is like because then what is left to contend. You know like. I don't know where you kind of add on that. I saw a tweet saying oh last thing about bayes base fan club. If you tweet again i will. I'll have some for you. Just say please don't come back to zero points a ma ever like yours. Some photos zero points. I'd not not liking it but at our hours all boy for james trade. I just wanna see a one of the best office to play time where you know plan for my city. So i mean one of the tweets a solid saying oh before the season started to trade for james iron and alex raft is kind of neat to treat for james harden. Because you know basco inform odeon form but i would also do it for I'm not sure would be pasco. No g definitely pass cow. I'm like some sort of package around that. But i'll know that's being the sixers offer if they throw in ben simmons. You know like the dome. Pascal almonds doesn't sound as good anymore as a it could have been last year but yeah i'm definitely boy for that. I just wanna see at. Its wants to happen. We could do contend for like two years and then you know we'll go whatever a fine..

"But i mean that's where we are right now just a second option. That is just having too much of a responsibility. Yeah no i think that's a great point. We're talking about this before we got on. You know it's interesting because it kind of in conjunction with looking at og. You know. i i remember. I talked to blake murphy about this for the year on some of the expectations that people had for. Oh gee being a little bit ridiculous. Frankly like i think oh. A great plays super young has a lot of upside but i think the expectations that we're living on him have been too much coming in you know. And he's he's shown a little bit more on ball equity but overall who is yet and it's different because you look at siachen. And i think we saw siachen in that second year role already on a championship team like we saw his ideal role. And even then you still had a little bit issues in the playoffs. But he's still throughout that year they were almost sixty one team So yeah i agree. You told like evan mentioned on this to you did the entire podcast on the wrong in year. I don't remember if you guys mentioned pascal But we've just really seen that here this year and i think obviously it's difficult to not look at twitter in. At least i get pissed off all the time when i see people say dumb shit. I should probably use the blockbuster more. But i think this is more of a expectations being far too high for a for both pasco g rather than massive failures by them. You know. I think you can obviously pointed. There have been some issues with pascal on like he just hasn't been amazing. And that's kind of essential. Aided by losing dissenter the entire center rotation But at the same time. I think it shows that there are just a lot bigger flaws in the roster because losing thirty six year old marc assault and serge. Ibaka shouldn't completely decimate you to a one six start. Yeah i think you guys touch on a lot of instead make a lot of sense in terms of why the rappers have struggled so far and we didn't talk about pascal specifically in the wrong initiator. Pablo talked around it a lot because we talked about how the raptors were perfectly set up for quite come in and just take over that primary usage because they had so many participators like scott living a great article last year for premium. Hoops that you guys should check out. I just retreated today on the value of stretch. Participator biggs and guys like mark and serge. Ibaka were perfect for that team because they can kind of help grease the wheels a of the offense not all the primary initiation responsibilities have to come from one guy. We're seeing now. How much. Pascal struggled that especially as the scouting reports. Catch up a little bit. Like i don't know if you guys have noticed this specifically but the big thing for me is that the spin move just like doesn't work as as it used to and so obviously his ability to get to the rim is a little bit hindered by that..
