You compete with someone went without them and -- certainly that indicate the last couple -- that they -- me it. They're different back don't down our. -- what situation. In Rodney situation. Or so.

Play from 3:21[3:21]" Well I think sometimes they can beat ticket you know. Each -- each year Barrett because. You don't when you're out there you have to -- but other but he come down hard on it it eat all say you know what you know backed -- that. And none more so what -- strike it sort of latter number are we over our our back or eat out in the it has slots at the deeper. So I think. You let your guard up and it makes it that much easier to the bulk he added and try to understand what's going on employ."

You know pretty summer but they're just up tempo and -- major boy there are tickets are now the of them they've hit big play in. Aromatic -- defensively they're they're quite a lot better. You know it is just lottery or turn our. You know he just -- the last two weeks that. In NB indication as opposed to look Adam earlier in the year which it do a little bit but I think you look at the last two games. At the Durant -- probably going to -- Talk about."
