Elite processing on a question with absolutely no safe answer. I’ve somehow started grading this exchange like a prospect interview

You gotta love when players just drop the media training and trade jokes with the analysts. Makes the broadcast so much better.

Gobert has blocked shots for years and still had energy left to roast a bald head. Jefferson walked right into that one.

Humor is a great icebreaker, but it also shows how players keep it real with each other. Jokes like this build camaraderie , it’s the little moments that strengthen team bonds. Humor can turn a tough day into a memorable one.
