00:00 Jimmy, to what degree did the fall Game 2 in Houston affect how were you feeling the rest of the postseason?
00:18 And then how would you just contextualize how different things were throughout the course of the series without having Steph out there?
00:47 How do you view just, I guess, your few months here and what the future — what this franchise can look like?
01:10 When do you and Draymond and Steph get together and start talking about next year?
01:31 Have you seen enough — I know you played, what, eight playoff games with Steph?
01:35 Have you seen enough to really be convinced that, healthy, this team is a contender?
02:00 Jimmy, the last couple of times you've been in the playoffs, you've had to maybe carry undermanned rosters further than maybe where we projected where you guys should have been. Does this collection or group, or at least you, Steph and Draymond at the top, does that give you a little bit more optimism, maybe despite your age, despite how tough the Western Conference is, do you walk away feeling a little bit different than you have your last few playoff rounds?
02:52 Jimmy, you guys were so close in Game 3. You had 'em, what, six minutes to go. You were up and they blitz at the end there. When you look at what they were able to do to you guys with your offense, what made them so successful defending you guys?
03:31 On the other side, then, you guys had a really strong defense last few months of the regular season. What did they do to sort of take that apart?
03:57 Jimmy, it feels like you guys have been going a hundred miles an hour since you got here when you were traded. What's it gonna be like having a full season with this team and do you think you guys can do more, based on having a full season, full camp?

05:32 Brandin, you guys played two really good defenses, Houston obviously, and then Minnesota here. What did this team do to your offense to sort of make it difficult to score, because obviously there were a lot of possessions that there were a shot clock violations and stuff going on?
07:02 You guys, obviously, emphasize trying to limit Ant's effectiveness tonight. You blitzed him, you threw some defenses at him, make, and he had six points at the half. Mm-hmm. You guys were down 15. When you do — when you're so effective at doing that and you're still down 15, what goes through your mind at halftime there?
