00:00 How about we hear from Drew Holiday, who's gonna have the assignment, probably, Scotty,
00:04 of trying to lock down Kyrie Irving during this series. Well, what do we have to do, Drew?
00:08 I'm sure there'll be plenty of possessions where you're locked up one-on-one against Kyrie Irving.
00:12 What's your, you know, what's that challenge like? What can you do to try to nullify, thwart,
00:19 stop, whatever it is, Kyrie? Pray.
00:24 Pray. That's it. Pray. He's right. It ain't easy. It ain't easy trying to guard him, Scotty.
00:31 He's as good as it gets, defensively, on the perimeter. So if anyone has a shot at giving him
00:38 problems and grief, it would be Holiday. I think if it were Smart, it would be a lot of flopping,
00:45 and a lot of drama, and some technicals to go with it, and a lot of arguing. Because Smart is a,
00:53 he's an actor, more than he is, in my opinion, talented. I think he's a really tough guy
01:01 that is one of the greatest actors I've ever seen in the NBA, at flopping and getting calls,
01:08 and arguing calls, and getting his way somewhere down the road in the game.
01:12 But when it comes to pure perimeter defense, there's no discussion. Holiday is better than
01:20 Smart 10 times till Sunday. Not six, 10 times.
