There's no such thing as a flawless basketball team because I feel like Steve and I were having similar conversations about the Lynx last year up until he went down.

There isn't much you can do to truly bother them.
Like you have to throw, you have to outplay them and do your best.
I don't know if there's anything you can do to drag them down, which feels like a testament to the personnel and to what Cheryl Reeve has kind of built with them.

When we talk about getting to that point of the postseason and of the playoffs, her obviously resume of what she's been through, what she's seen, how she's going to be able to adapt to things.
Like, so the fact that you look at the roster compilation that really doesn't have holes and then you have that to go along with, like, to me, there is just such a steady calm and confidence of this group in how they play, how they want to play, a desire.
And I've, I've had them, a good chunk of times through the course of this season.
So getting a chance to sit down and, talk to these individuals and they just, they really, it's not only like a buy-in and a belief, but they're enthused.
