00:00 We've actually worked a couple of different combinations.
00:11 And so we've really done three different things.
00:15 We kept Sewell over there and we've had Vitie move.
00:20 We've moved Sewell.
00:21 We've had Vitie out, Glasgow in.
00:22 So we're going to continue messing with that today and then we'll see.
00:26 But the beauty is we've got options.
00:28 We feel pretty good about it.
00:30 Certainly Nelson's involved in all that as well.
00:33 He's just, to me, he's such a chess player.
00:37 And man, he can identify quickly things that, man, I know I got to be better here.
00:42 I won't ever do that again.
00:44 Man, if we play these guys again, this is exactly what I would do.
00:47 He's got an answer for all of it in real time.
00:50 And the more he memory banks, he just keeps getting better and better and growing.
00:56 And then even from the game plan standpoint, putting players in the best position to have
01:00 success, I think he does a great job of.
01:03 And we put a lot of time and thought into, man, how do we get this guy's touches?
01:08 How do we get this guy's touches?
01:09 How do we get this play started for him?
01:13 And that takes a lot of time and work.
01:15 I mean, I've been throughout this league as a player and a coach, I've been around before
01:19 where you just run your system.
01:22 And you're here, you're here, you're here.
01:24 And if the ball comes to you, great.
01:27 And we're not that way here.
01:28 And you can't do that if you don't have a coordinator that's got vision, flexibility,
01:33 and belief in what he does.
01:35 So Ben's outstanding, man.
01:37 He's doing a hell of a job.
