"So you have to adjust to that and just go out and play. In San Fran, was kind of like, you know, we huddled so they kind of like get a glimpse of where I'm at, like in the split second. But with no offense, you know where nobody's going to be, whether it's going to be, you know, Zach in the slot, Terry in the slot."
