00:00Clearly, he was so, so good and good at multiple positions.
00:06Again, you saw what we did with him at playing the five.
00:09At the end of the game, they actually came up and started guarding him.
00:12So I put him in a bunch of pick and rolls as the point guard.
00:15Put him in a lot of elbow action, offensively.
00:19And then defensively, you look at the disturbance that Matisse and
00:22Ben caused, where they have nine cumulative turnovers.
00:26He was really special tonight on a very talented court.
00:31We talked the other day, I think we were in Toronto,
00:34people were asking me about Ben and Matisse together on the court.
00:36And I mean, you've talked all year about how your team kind of
00:38frats off the whole crowd.
00:39Do they, in particular, the way they play, really kind of get
00:42taken on by the crowd maybe more than most players will?
00:47I don't know that.
00:48But what I do know is when they collectively put their minds to it,
00:54they are as disruptive as anybody in the NBA,
00:57just with their athleticism and their length.
01:00And I suppose if you can wind them up, to your point, on the road or
01:05at home, it adds another layer to what their physical gifts are.
01:10And I thought defensively, we were pretty good.
01:14I mean, you look at the thing, if you told me we had 23 turnovers,
01:19and you beat the Los Angeles Lakers by 17 points,
01:22you'd wonder what happened in that.
01:24And so you circle back to the thing you're talking about,
01:27that defense was pretty good.
01:28When you get into half court defense, and they had three points the last four
01:32minutes of the game, and those two fuel that type of energy.
01:38Is that the version of
