00:00do you think they just weren't going to play him on the back-to-back
00:03because it was too transparent?
00:04Do you still think he's going to play in these final two games,
00:05or did they have an actual change of heart
00:07because of how stupid it looked on Tuesday against the Knicks?
00:09Maybe they did have a little bit of a change of heart,
00:13or maybe it also was how productive would it be
00:15if Jalen Brown is on the floor with zero guys
00:18he's going to be playing within the playoffs?
00:20Maybe the exception of, like, Pritchard.
00:22But, like, everybody else is out.
00:24What are you really doing?
00:26Plus, you're playing a team in the Orlando Magic
00:27that you might play in the first round of the playoffs?
00:30Anyway, so I think just sitting everybody made the most sense.
00:34I also wonder now, if you're Jalen Brown,
00:36and the team clearly wants to go for this 65-game threshold,
00:40but we went over it yesterday, and Terp was in, too.
00:44He came up with his All-NBA team.
00:45I came up with my All-NBA team.
00:47Neither one of us had Jalen Brown on the first, second, or third team.
00:52If you're Brown, do you say, maybe I won't play in that game?
00:55And then I can always be like, oh, I didn't make it because I didn't qualify.
00:58But I would have.
00:59Yeah.
01:00Because you're not going to make it.
01:01And so if you go out there, and especially if we see it,
01:04where he plays 16 minutes tonight.
01:07No, no, no.
01:08Tomorrow night.
01:0816 minutes on Sunday.
01:11Like, what the hell?
01:12What was the point?
01:12And, oh, by the way, you're still dealing with a knee injury going into the playoffs?
01:15And you look like it.
01:16I mean, in the...
01:17No, he's not playing well.
01:18In the New York game, he looked like he was dealing with a knee injury.
01:20Right, and he's talked about it.
01:21He's talked about, like, the pain that he's dealing with.
01:23And even if it's one of these injuries where you can't necessarily hurt it worse,
01:28you're not helping yourself by going out there and playing the way that you are.
01:32You might as well sit starting now through the first round of the playoffs.
01:38And honestly, you don't even need to rush it back for that.
01:40You have the luxury of being so much better than whoever you play,
01:43probably in the first two rounds of the playoffs, that you don't need Jalen Brown.
01:46Yeah, I'd like him back for round two.
01:48But if he said, I'm going to rest through the Hawks series or the Magic series
01:51or whoever they get in round one, I'd be like, yeah, okay.
01:53They don't need you.
01:54But Mozilla confirmed it.
01:55They're going to sweep these teams without them.
01:55Mozilla confirmed it after the Knicks game.
01:57Yeah.
01:58Like, we got them what we needed to.
01:59We got what we needed to.
02:00Yeah, so they basically...
02:03You know, there's still two games left.
02:05So by sitting them last night, it doesn't tell you that they've changed their minds completely
02:08because he still has an opportunity to hit that number.
02:11Yeah.
02:11Yeah.
02:11All right.
02:11So...
02:12...
