00:00I mean, he's obviously a great player.
00:02I thought we weren't as tight with him with our defensive game plan as we were in Dallas
00:10or at home game against Dallas or in the Houston game, or as we have been on many of the top
00:16guys we've played against this year.
00:17We've been really good about getting those guys to play their weaknesses.
00:21We had some possessions where we did that with him, but we also had some breakdowns
00:25that I thought were uncharacteristic.
00:26So he's a little different because of where he catches it on the floor, the elbow isos
00:30and the post-ups.
00:31So you don't see that every night, but we can learn from it and be better the next time
00:36we play them.
00:37We'll play them two more times.
00:38It's funny, we don't play them a whole lot being in the West, but from the outside of
00:44the community, it seems like he works hard.
00:46Like you said, he's been playing at a high level for a very long time.
00:51You don't get that without hard work.
