And when I got kicked out 0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:10.839 of that game, I ain't had nothing else to do. 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:14.000 It's in Memphis. I ain't nothing to do in Memphis, nothing. 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:17.400 And I left. I was hot, by the way, because 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:21.080 I ain't feel like I ain't. I ain't grabbed bro 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.400 like that, he went to the ground. It ain't my fighting, 0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:26.840 not strong enough. But so I was hot. I got 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:29.480 kicked out the game. I just walked back to the hotel. 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:31.440 I don't know why I was walking down the streets 0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:33.880 some Memphis either because they hated me at that point, 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:39.000 but you brave. I walked to the hotel and I'm like, 0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:41.440 you know what, I'm about to do my podcast right now. 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:42.840 As soon as the game. 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:45.520 Man, I'm on here, and man, I think that was 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:47.600 that was one of the best things I ever did 0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:52.240 because it really sparked the interest for that real time. 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.680 Update after the game, and that's been my thing now. 0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:59.320 People was telling me like, yo, you can't podcast you 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.960 you in the player and then we want a championship 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:02.880 and everybody shut up. 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:06.680 So it was that's cold, Like how do you feel 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:11.520 like when you see other players doing now it's like yeah. 0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:12.640 Or is it liked what you trying to take my life? 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:14.440 Or is it like now it's like an honor Nah. 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.960 I think I think it's space for all of us 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:19.840 because we all got we all got stories to tell, 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:21.400 Like I can't do what y'all do. 0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:23.840 You know what I'm saying, Like that ain't that ain't 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:24.880 my thing? You know what I'm saying. 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.160 I think what's so special about this space is like, 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.760 you know, you can carve out your own lane and 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.360 whatever it is that you want to do, as y'all 0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:36.559 has done. So when I see guys doing it now, 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:41.400 I have two thoughts. Hey, I like that you're doing that. 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.600 I think that's super dope that you're doing that, But 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.560 b make sure you're in the space to do it first. 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:49.880 You know, I see some guys starting now, and like, 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:54.200 if you start now because you're trying to make that 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:57.880 your main job, great, go for it. But you're not 0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:01.160 in a space right now to do that and try 0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:03.240 to make it in basketball because you ain't made it 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:05.480 in that yet. So happy you said that, and so 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:07.280 I kind of look at it that way, like I'd 0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:09.680 be excited as hell to see everybody doing their thing. 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:13.200 I think it's dope. But at the same time, I 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:16.800 get a little worried that people trying to do too 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:18.840 much too soon, Like I'm on the wrong side of 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:23.400 my downslide, Like I'm headed into year thirteen. I probably 0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:27.600 got it two more, and so it's important to start 0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:30.520 building for the next thing. But for some of these guys, 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.439 they be in year three, still trying to figure it 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:33.439 out with the podcast. 0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:35.760 Like I love that you're doing it. 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:38.480 I love that you found something that you want to do, 0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:42.000 but you and year three and ain't done shit. Nobody 0:08:42.040 --> 0:08:43.959 really want to hear from you facts, you know what 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:48.000 I'm saying. Like as great as y'all show has been 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.920 and where it's gone, it all started because you were 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:58.240 an All Star and an NBA champion and so you're 0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:01.920 going to naturally gain by that and then it's like 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:05.560 oh man, hen DJ they funny as fuck. 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:06.800 It's a good ass show. 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:09.720 But if people started watching because it's like, oh, Jeff 0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:12.079 Tige is talking about the NBA, he an All Star 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:14.600 and he a champion, I want to hear what he 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.240 got to say. And I think some guys get started 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:20.160 too soon where they ain't got nothing to say in 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.679 whatever you is, you're gonna say, nobody kind of want 0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:25.640 to hear it because you ain't proved nothing. 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.880 And they still and for me, like, you still got 0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:31.319 a brand that you gotta protect, and so like we 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:33.160 was talking about it on your show and earlier when 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.440 we were just speaking, like a lot of guys be 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.000 nervous to come on shows like this, but like you said, 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:40.559 you established, you got your brand, and you can you 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:43.360 can shoot the shit if you want to.

But it's a sp like you said, the 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:27.080 space for everybody for sure? For sure, man, I know. 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:29.880 I mean with the social media is so encouraged. Everybody 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:31.520 have their own brand quote unquote. But the whole part 0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:33.760 of having a brand is having substance behind that, because 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:35.440 if you don't have the substance behind it, it could 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.200 fuck you up and the brain you're trying to build 0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.560 at the same time, it's kind of like self sabotaged. 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:41.439 But you talked about that Young contract. 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:42.880 I don't know if y'all seen the news today, but 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.040 jay Le Brush just signed that extension with the Knick today. 0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:45.400 Yeah. 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:49.840 Word, I have not seen he took a discount forty 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:51.800 years fifty four. He could have signed the next year, 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.640 he would have had that super duper two fifty something. 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:56.319 He took a hundred million dollars discount. 0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:58.760 He did the Draymond Green. 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.080 Signed that four for one hundred and if I waited, 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:04.440 I could have got like four to one eighty. 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:06.520 But I need to lock my money. 0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:06.800 And I. 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:14.400 Do nobody feel you this a brock with that. 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:16.559 No, I'd rather I'd rather lock. I'd rather lock a 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.480 hunting then to make sure I got that hunding. 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:23.199 Yeah, chasing that extra six year eighty and then I 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.760 don't get like I just wasn't willing to take that risk. 0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:28.920 And Jalen may not be willing to take that risk. 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:32.880 But he different like he you you the number one option. 0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:34.880 He was gonna get the New York Knicks. He was 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.160 gonna get that you get and by the way, not 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:38.960 only are you the number one option on the New 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.040 York Knicks and that's cool, but the city of New. 0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:45.000 York love you. You're going to get that tooth he was getting. 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:46.760 I think he want. 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:49.120 They said he took less because he wanted to build 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:51.800 a team, like you know, Josh Hart. Some of them 0:11:51.800 --> 0:11:53.719 guys are gonna be up for extensions. I don't know 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:55.560 if Josh Hart is. I think he just got one too. 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:57.880 And Michael Brown, I don't know who he was trying 0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:59.000 to get paid. I'm not sure. 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:02.000 Can I tell you no, no, you are. Can I 0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:04.640 tell you something? It's the New York Knicks, bro. They 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:07.160 can afford it. You got to take no discount, of course, 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:10.160 for them to get paid you you ain't gonta my 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:15.320 situation again, my situation is different because Steph making two seventy, 0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:19.600 Clay making one eight. All right, something guy to get cool. 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:21.680 I can take a little look. I can take less, 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:25.760 but he the top guy. Yes, sir, by the way. 0:12:25.679 --> 0:12:29.240 Let let Josh Hart or less. 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.600 They in my role now, one of them take less. 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:35.480 But guess what. Steph Curry ain't take a penny less. 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:37.800 I feel that, and neither did Klay Thompson ain't take 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:41.520 a penny less. So if it's gonna work, somebody do well, 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:43.840 guess what. I ain't really expecting them to take it. 0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:46.600 I don't know what he doing. I'm happy for him. 0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:50.840 We got the max, though the max extension. He ain't 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.160 get the max. That's one hundred million dollars. 0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:55.560 But like a man told me one time, Bro, He 0:12:55.600 --> 0:12:57.199 was like, if I told you was going when I 0:12:57.240 --> 0:12:59.720 signed for thirty two, damn, that sounds so crazy because 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:00.200 out the. 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:02.000 Max, Chris Christy just got that. But I signed. 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:07.520 I stopped, shouts a guy, I'm happy for you, bro, 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:09.680 I'm not hating that I sort of gotten but I 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:11.040 signed that. And a man was like, if I told 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:14.319 you it was gonna make thirty two million dollars two 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:16.880 years ago, you would have told me I'll do anything 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:17.120 for that. 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:19.040 And I was like, he was like, so, why the 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:20.600 fuck you playing around? Now? 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:21.880 You're right? So I feel like him. 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:23.400 He probably, like his dad probably was like, man, if 0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:24.720 I told you was gonna get one hundred and fifty 0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:27.120 four million dollars, you want to sign up? He probably 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.600 You're right, fuck it. You might get hurt next year. 0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:33.000 I know Rick too, you might bro your wife year. Yeah, 0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:35.680 question though I would I would have signed it though. 0:13:36.559 --> 0:13:38.160 No change question though. 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:45.959 So I've seen quite a few extensions this summer, and 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:50.520 it left me with a question, who's representing these guys 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:55.160 because did they like also did they not? And by 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:57.600 the way, I'm never going to question someone getting some money, 0:13:57.600 --> 0:13:59.760 because all this money is life changed for us where 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:03.280 we are come from. But some of these extensions I've 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:06.040 been looking at, like Jaylen signed a four year do 0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:08.800 they not realize this TV money coming up them? 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:09.959 Deal is about to get bigger? 0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:12.760 So you so now he took four for one fifty 0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:16.120 four in a year and a half, hes gonna be 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:19.600 making mid level facts because the match is gonna be eighty. 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:22.440 I think he got an option though I said the details. 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:24.200 I would love to see if he has an option 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.040 after year two. I would really better have options. I 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:28.080 would love to see that the. 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:30.320 Option not gonna come to the If it's a four 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.400 year deal, the option ain't come to after year three. 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:35.360 That's gonna be which the deal. If it's an extension, 0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:39.120 the deal don't kick in till next season, which is 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:41.360 the season that the TV money starts. So that's gonna 0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:43.239 be three years on new TV money. 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:47.880 And that's three years of playing your body wearing tears, 0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:49.520 and he playing for tips, you know, the dog years 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:49.960 on the court. 0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:56.000 I love tips, but you're playing forty. I wish I 0:14:56.000 --> 0:15:00.800 would have been we don't know, niggas up here off 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:01.360 this yealer. 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:06.840 I mean, I would have because he already come off 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:08.920 one hundred million dollars. I would have I would have 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:10.920 got the two songs. I ain't gonna lie to if 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:12.400 you're telling me you can gamble one year for a 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:14.440 hundred extra m you gonna take that gambo and I 0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:15.720 already made a hundred and you that. 0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.720 Nigga, you're gonna take that made? Yeah, I made an 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.480 They may not. They may not like my eight points 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:27.560 next year situation. Man, I don't know.

He not. 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.640 And the only reason he no is because all the 0:15:48.680 --> 0:15:52.920 guys that that is in my tip five.

Like they had they 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:43.320 run about the same. Gilbert had a Gilbert my favorite 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:47.040 because of Gilbert. But Gilbert was like it was only 0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:49.840 like four or five years. If Jaylen Brunceton keep going 0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:51.520 for like two or three more years, are going to surprise. 0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:55.840 I agree. I'm just talking about strictly just game game 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:59.760 is he's cold. You're just going top five first, I'm 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:00.320 on put. 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:05.240 Him in there, then I give him was probably number one.

His 0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:22.080 Gil game is like Gil Game. 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.240 At the time he was in the NBA, just off 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:27.880 pure game, he was probably type five for sure, one 0:18:27.880 --> 0:18:30.280 of the better bigger guards bro Ever, Bro for sure 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:34.439 past to be six four doing He was demn as 0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:35.359 fast as John Wall. 0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:35.560 Bro. 0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:37.480 You the only problem I. 0:18:37.440 --> 0:18:41.400 Have with with with Gil's resumes to say ty five 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.160 is if you really look at the numbers, he only 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:47.600 did it for like four years. I mean because Gil 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:52.800 was really paid in full and you know what I'm saying, 0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:56.280 So it was it was stipulations to that. 0:18:56.800 --> 0:18:58.320 Like I tell people about Pity all the time. He 0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:00.080 gave me slack about Penny. It ain't no this. He 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.840 love Penny. But I'm saying, like, just off game, Bro, 0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:05.639 he's one of the greatest point guards ever. 0:19:05.760 --> 0:19:07.040 Bro. 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:08.240 He is, Bro. 0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:11.280 But what makes you great is like your longevity, Bro. 0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:14.399 Like I agree you're saying pure Hooper or if you 0:19:14.520 --> 0:19:16.800 just like test, you gonna be.

Its numbers 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:36.679 or whatever, that one year he might have had it 0:19:36.720 --> 0:19:38.639 don't count.

I 0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:05.159 got good question. They just said the Mellow Jason Tatum battle. 0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:08.360 You guard both of them? Yeah, they played one on one. 0:21:09.560 --> 0:21:16.240 Who you think is a tougher cover Mellow? By the way, 0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:20.000 j JT is my man, JT. 0:21:21.119 --> 0:21:24.919 But the thing that Mello did different than just about 0:21:24.960 --> 0:21:28.320 anyone was the pressure that he put on the rim. 0:21:28.480 --> 0:21:33.240 Bro Like, Mello put crazy pressure on the rim, whereas 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:37.600 opposed to I actually have told JT this before like 0:21:38.000 --> 0:21:38.880 bro get to the cup. 0:21:39.200 --> 0:21:42.080 He said, like sometimes you settled too much. 0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:45.399 I told him after we beat him in the championship, Like, yo, 0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:48.840 I just want you to know, like our stuff was 0:21:48.880 --> 0:21:52.480 predicated on you settling, like you settle sometimes too much. 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:54.800 And when he gets to the hole, he can't be stopped, 0:21:55.200 --> 0:21:58.240 and you can't like his handle. He's sixteen. You can't 0:21:58.240 --> 0:22:00.520 stop him once he gets to the whole. A mellow 0:22:01.400 --> 0:22:07.600 melo man. I was playing mellow my first year, first. 0:22:07.440 --> 0:22:10.919 Or second year. David Lee had got suspended. Stephan him Clay. 0:22:10.960 --> 0:22:13.560 They had got into this thing with the pacers night 0:22:13.680 --> 0:22:15.120 before the scuffle. 0:22:16.320 --> 0:22:20.280 George got thrown around absolutely Steph. 0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:26.160 Hear somebody legs and fell, so that David Lee got suspended. 0:22:26.200 --> 0:22:28.160 The next game. We was in the garden the next night, 0:22:28.440 --> 0:22:31.600 so I started and I had the guard Mellow. He 0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:34.160 caught the ball in the mid post, square, faced up 0:22:34.680 --> 0:22:36.560 and put his hand down, drove to the rim when 0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:40.080 right into me laid the ball up. He missed. It 0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:42.520 probably could have been a foul, but its borderline. He 0:22:42.560 --> 0:22:45.439 created all the contact. They didn't call a file. He 0:22:45.480 --> 0:22:49.040 looked at the roughly called a foul. He went back 0:22:49.080 --> 0:22:51.680 to the same spot the next play, put his head 0:22:51.720 --> 0:22:53.840 down and ran through me and got the file. 0:22:55.520 --> 0:22:58.119 But that's the pressure he put on the rim all 0:22:58.200 --> 0:22:58.720 the time. 0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:01.359 To put that type of pressure on the rim, I 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:04.080 just think that makes you a tougher cover. Bro. 0:23:04.200 --> 0:23:07.919 That dude's second jump so fast, like he misgets his 0:23:07.960 --> 0:23:10.439 own rebound more than anybody on the wing that. 0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:11.080 I ever seen. 0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:11.280 Bro. 0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:13.880 Like, I used to think mellow. I remember one time 0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:16.000 we played them. He went I was in Atlanta, he 0:23:16.040 --> 0:23:18.000 was in the guard. He went crazy on us, but 0:23:18.080 --> 0:23:20.879 it was all off of like pull ups and second jumps, 0:23:20.880 --> 0:23:21.879 like he a shoot a jumper. 0:23:21.920 --> 0:23:23.359 He hit that, he'd go to the room post to 0:23:23.520 --> 0:23:24.600 miss it. Second jump. 0:23:24.640 --> 0:23:25.440 I'm like damn. 0:23:26.320 --> 0:23:28.320 And I was like, God, damn. You like a bull 0:23:28.359 --> 0:23:30.840 in a China shop. Bro, like you strong at hell 0:23:31.000 --> 0:23:32.040 like Mello. 0:23:32.200 --> 0:23:35.600 Yeah, he was first step crazy to first step. Come on, 0:23:35.640 --> 0:23:38.879 bro ever, bro go first step. That's my first people. 0:23:38.880 --> 0:23:41.480 I don't be speaking because niggas be saying mellow like 0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:44.399 so much. But he's one of the greatest scorers ever. Bro, 0:23:44.480 --> 0:23:46.760 who don't really get his just due. You're right though, 0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:49.399 he don't get it. Don't get this dude. It bothers 0:23:49.560 --> 0:23:51.479 like I didn't like how he was out of the league. 0:23:51.640 --> 0:23:54.840 Like me and Bro, watch how Houston treated him like that. 0:23:55.160 --> 0:23:58.680 Man back at home, I was like, yeah, it's crazy. 0:23:58.800 --> 0:24:00.760 Him and I had the worst treatment I ever seen 0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:03.960 of like superstars I ever seen in the NBA, like 0:24:04.080 --> 0:24:06.200 I ever seen at one time. I remember when he 0:24:06.240 --> 0:24:08.080 played for the Memphis Gris. It was my rookie year, 0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:11.800 and it was just like that's Alan Irson. 0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:12.600 Bro, what y'all doing? 0:24:12.760 --> 0:24:16.960 Like nah, like this don't look right, y'all got him 0:24:17.160 --> 0:24:19.160 at the end of the night. This don't look that's hard, 0:24:19.200 --> 0:24:21.920 that's all. You can't do that. Like the same thing 0:24:21.920 --> 0:24:26.879 with Mellow, Like seeing him in Houston, it's like, nah, Bron, I. 0:24:27.280 --> 0:24:30.639 Came out like a goddamn EBC game game. 0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:33.080 I said, Now we're mellow. We come out nigga, middle 0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:36.360 of the game, just walking out, going through it. Yeah, 0:24:36.480 --> 0:24:39.600 sitting down they called it. He like, may fuck it. 0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:40.840 I get out there for a little. 0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:41.439 It's mellow. 0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:41.760 Bro. 0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:45.439 That that was literally the last game he played. 0:24:45.440 --> 0:24:48.840 Bro Rockets and you talked about the Longevy situation, and 0:24:48.880 --> 0:24:50.240 that's why I think, like you said, it needs to 0:24:50.240 --> 0:24:51.879 be more, especially people in your situation. You know, what 0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:53.399 I'm saying for you to be at thirteen year vet 0:24:53.840 --> 0:24:56.359 same organization, Like that's those s things needs to be 0:24:56.400 --> 0:24:58.600 praised more. We kind of faced people out. But it's 0:24:58.680 --> 0:25:00.760 like we can't do that because you have to respect 0:25:00.800 --> 0:25:02.840 what people did. People ain't just doing this. People ain't 0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:04.960 just staying in the league off strengths. They be waiting 0:25:04.960 --> 0:25:06.560 to get certain people out the way. So people to 0:25:06.560 --> 0:25:09.000 stay around even no matter how good you are, however 0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:10.280 you kind of not as good as you were. 0:25:10.560 --> 0:25:12.400 We need more respect on ship like that. For sure. 0:25:12.520 --> 0:25:14.639 I sure thought this was on his way to the Hornets. 0:25:19.080 --> 0:25:21.160 He's going to the horn after the fast few games. 0:25:21.200 --> 0:25:22.200 I said, yeah, they sick. 0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:32.680 You're gonna be driving up. 0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:37.560 That's yell yellow lamb fired. 0:25:38.520 --> 0:25:42.080 I tell you what, though, I pray to God if 0:25:42.119 --> 0:25:43.800 they ever feel they need to get rid of me, 0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:48.280 like at least send me, like, send me somewhere. 0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:50.320 The pistols. 0:25:51.000 --> 0:25:56.359 No, no, don't gotta do you right wing around with you, bro, 0:25:56.400 --> 0:25:58.239 they gotta do you right.

Yeah, this is the crib. 0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:08.760 I can I can make you do it? To do that. 0:26:10.280 --> 0:26:12.640 So if they're going to send me to any non 0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:19.160 winning organization, I'd much rather be Detroit than than Charlotte. 0:26:19.320 --> 0:26:21.159 You're the game too much to the city.

Yeah, but what I'm saying, we're talking about. 0:26:27.080 --> 0:26:28.600 Of course you need to finish out and the gold 0:26:28.640 --> 0:26:30.760 So but if it came to that, you need to 0:26:30.800 --> 0:26:32.919 have a No, I'm not going to Orlando. 0:26:33.160 --> 0:26:33.840 I don't want to go. 0:26:34.000 --> 0:26:37.360 I think they have enough respect to respect for That's 0:26:37.400 --> 0:26:38.320 what Atlanta did for me. 0:26:38.320 --> 0:26:39.240 When I wanted to go to the Indiana. 0:26:39.520 --> 0:26:48.359 So if he got it for sure?

I 0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:05.680 just want to go somewhere they're trying to win. 0:27:05.760 --> 0:27:05.920 Bro. 0:27:05.960 --> 0:27:08.240 I'm still like, I'm averaging fourteen off the bench. 0:27:08.280 --> 0:27:08.440 Bro. 0:27:08.640 --> 0:27:10.439 Yeah, I'm trying to be six Man of the Year 0:27:10.520 --> 0:27:12.800 or something. He said, yea, yeah, yeah, you're going to Atlanta. 0:27:12.920 --> 0:27:19.000 I was like, yeah, fucking too. So I got to 0:27:19.000 --> 0:27:20.640 ask Dre Obviously you know what I'm saying. We talked 0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.840 last All Star. Finishing out the season. I would say 0:27:23.840 --> 0:27:25.440 probably more of an emotional season for a lot of 0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:26.080 things going on. 0:27:26.320 --> 0:27:27.480 How was that, menc you know what I'm saying. 0:27:27.480 --> 0:27:29.760 Obviously knowing what took place, some of the things that 0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:30.840 could have took place, how was it? 0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:32.119 Just getting through the rest of the season. 0:27:35.440 --> 0:27:42.080 Honestly, it was fun to play again, and it felt 0:27:42.160 --> 0:27:44.440 like a weight was off my shoulders for the rest 0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:48.399 of the year, except for when something went wrong. Hm, 0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:52.400 when some went wrong, like for instance, when I got 0:27:52.800 --> 0:27:56.080 when I got ejected in Orlando, like two minutes into 0:27:56.119 --> 0:27:57.520 the game, whatever it was. 0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:04.360 We had bought black Forces that. 0:28:02.240 --> 0:28:02.639 I went on. 0:28:05.080 --> 0:28:09.240 Wallace record, we had a group takes so loud bros. 0:28:13.800 --> 0:28:18.600 So, but I when I got kicked out of that game, like. 0:28:20.760 --> 0:28:23.919 I hadn't had a tech since I've been back, and 0:28:23.960 --> 0:28:25.800 so then I get kicked out of that game, and 0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:26.520 everybody like. 0:28:27.680 --> 0:28:29.959 Yo, look, he haven't learned anything. Number one. 0:28:30.040 --> 0:28:32.240 Let's stop that he haven't learned anything, Like I'm a 0:28:32.280 --> 0:28:35.920 fucking dummy. Like I'm not dumb. He hasn't learned anything. 0:28:36.160 --> 0:28:39.480 Blah blah blah. Also like I played basketball, like stop 0:28:39.520 --> 0:28:45.120 acting like I'm like sticking somebody off basketball. But it 0:28:45.160 --> 0:28:47.880 was the whole like he haven't learned anything. He's this, 0:28:48.720 --> 0:28:52.800 he's that, he's a problem. Look at Steph. Steph's emotional. 0:28:53.240 --> 0:28:56.920 And Steph told me after the game, like, Yo, I 0:28:57.120 --> 0:29:00.440 need you out there. Like I just like, whatever it is, 0:29:01.200 --> 0:29:04.360 I just need you off. Steve came to me after 0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:08.120 the game and was like, Yo, you're good. I'm like yeah, 0:29:08.560 --> 0:29:14.040 He's like great. I'm not about to make like I'm 0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:15.960 not about to make a bunch out of this, like 0:29:16.440 --> 0:29:18.239 you getting kicked out of that game. You're gonna get 0:29:18.280 --> 0:29:20.560 kicked out sometimes, By the way, I need you to 0:29:20.560 --> 0:29:21.200 get kicked out. 0:29:21.240 --> 0:29:23.920 Sometimes I need you to be who you are. No, 0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:25.440 we can't make a thing out of it. 0:29:25.480 --> 0:29:27.720 But I just want you to know you've been absolutely 0:29:27.760 --> 0:29:29.280 incredible since you've been back. 0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:31.600 You just got kicked out of that game. We got to. 0:29:31.600 --> 0:29:34.320 Bounce back tomorrow. I'm like, no problem, Coach. I appreciate. 0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:40.000 And so the roller coaster kind of ended once I 0:29:40.040 --> 0:29:43.479 got back, except for when something like that happened. But 0:29:43.520 --> 0:29:46.280 I was so happy to play basketball again and just 0:29:46.280 --> 0:29:49.760 like be around the guys again, like compete at a 0:29:49.840 --> 0:29:53.480 high level, and most importantly, killed the narrative because the 0:29:53.560 --> 0:29:56.480 only when you go through something like I was going 0:29:56.520 --> 0:29:58.360 through last year, the only way out of it is 0:29:58.400 --> 0:30:04.600 actually to play well. Like if like you can apologize 0:30:04.600 --> 0:30:08.080 as much as you want, you can do as many podcasts. 0:30:08.360 --> 0:30:10.320 Until you play well, people don't move on. 0:30:10.440 --> 0:30:12.600 And so my goal coming back was like, yo, I 0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:15.320 just got to come back and play well and we 0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:17.240 got to win. And when I came back, we was 0:30:17.280 --> 0:30:19.920 winning games. I was playing well, and it kind of 0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:23.680 all went away. But if we wasn't winning, as soon 0:30:23.720 --> 0:30:25.960 as we started losing, oh it's his fault, Like, man. 0:30:25.800 --> 0:30:27.600 Stop, that's crazy. 0:30:28.120 --> 0:30:29.840 So I am. 0:30:30.480 --> 0:30:33.080 It was one of the most trying seasons I've ever 0:30:33.680 --> 0:30:38.040 been through, for sure, but I do feel like it 0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:42.160 also provided the most growth for me in the season 0:30:42.880 --> 0:30:46.040 that I've ever had, Like it required and forced me 0:30:46.160 --> 0:30:49.959 to grow in a way that when you're winning, you 0:30:50.000 --> 0:30:56.320 don't have to because nobody care like you winning. Like, 0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:59.000 so it is what it is like when you winning. 0:30:59.000 --> 0:31:01.640 And that happened. It's like, look, that's the heart of 0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:02.320 a champion. 0:31:02.400 --> 0:31:03.040 They winning. 0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:05.480 All of a sudden, you're not winning and now you're 0:31:05.520 --> 0:31:09.720 an idiot and you're uncontrollable and you shouldn't be here. 0:31:10.240 --> 0:31:16.520 And so it forced me to grow because we wasn't winning, and. 0:31:18.240 --> 0:31:22.200 I had to understand that when you're not winning the 0:31:22.200 --> 0:31:23.880 things that you get away with when you win. 0:31:23.960 --> 0:31:24.400 And the ain't to. 0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:29.120 Say yes, I wanted to, I said, I wanted to 0:31:29.120 --> 0:31:32.280 ask you about a Clay's departure. You know, y'all had 0:31:32.280 --> 0:31:35.440 to man one of the best runs ever. Bro, y'all trio. 0:31:35.520 --> 0:31:38.120 I know it's the Splash Brothers, Bro, but I ain't 0:31:38.160 --> 0:31:40.200 saying it because you're here. Bro, it's really the Big 0:31:40.240 --> 0:31:40.880 Three for real? 0:31:40.960 --> 0:31:43.360 With you? How is it? 0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:43.520 Man? 0:31:43.560 --> 0:31:48.400 How you dealing with your man? It's like sliding, to. 0:31:48.400 --> 0:31:52.960 Be honest with you, I haven't given him much thought, okay, 0:31:53.240 --> 0:31:56.760 because I really don't want to face the reality until 0:31:56.760 --> 0:31:59.760 I have to face the reality until so like it's 0:31:59.800 --> 0:32:02.440 kind of just this thing that's like floating around out there, 0:32:02.440 --> 0:32:03.160 and then people. 0:32:03.040 --> 0:32:04.400 Be like, yo, how you feel about playing? 0:32:04.440 --> 0:32:09.280 I'm like, ah, like I don't know, Like I haven't 0:32:09.360 --> 0:32:11.680 really allowed my mind to process it. 0:32:13.320 --> 0:32:16.600 Needless to say, I said all of that to. 0:32:16.560 --> 0:32:22.400 Say I'm happy as hell he gone. And the reason 0:32:22.440 --> 0:32:26.560 I'm happy he's gone is because he wasn't happy no more. 0:32:27.200 --> 0:32:29.120 Yeah, And as a. 0:32:29.120 --> 0:32:33.160 Brother, I only want what's best for you, not what's 0:32:33.200 --> 0:32:36.760 best for me, not what's best for this team, not 0:32:36.880 --> 0:32:40.640 what's best for the organization. Like we spend so much 0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:42.760 time around each other, as you know, you spend more 0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:44.160 time around these guys. 0:32:43.880 --> 0:32:45.800 Than you then you do your family. 0:32:46.920 --> 0:32:51.120 And to see him unhappy like the way I saw 0:32:51.240 --> 0:32:55.720 him unhappy last year, and I wouldn't even necessarily say unhappy, 0:32:55.760 --> 0:32:59.160 he was uneasy though, like. 0:32:58.080 --> 0:32:59.880 Like just bothered. 0:33:00.280 --> 0:33:03.720 And to see him now, for to see someone that 0:33:03.880 --> 0:33:09.320 doesn't have a care in the world, like like you, 0:33:09.560 --> 0:33:12.600 if you walk around our organization and you say, yo, 0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:15.800 tell me about Clay, everybody would say, to y'all, he 0:33:15.880 --> 0:33:19.600 live in his own world, and everybody cool with that. 0:33:19.720 --> 0:33:22.640 So to see someone that does not have a single 0:33:22.760 --> 0:33:26.600 care in the world all of a sudden, just like 0:33:27.400 --> 0:33:28.840 can't shape nothing. 0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:32.040 That bothered me, you know what I'm saying. 0:33:32.080 --> 0:33:36.120 Like that, that to me was more far more hurtful 0:33:37.120 --> 0:33:40.000 than him leaving. Like to see somebody that just loved 0:33:40.000 --> 0:33:42.840 to play basketball, like that man loved to play basketball, 0:33:42.880 --> 0:33:44.840 he loved going on his boating, he love his dog, 0:33:45.080 --> 0:33:50.520 that's about it. And to see him like not happy 0:33:50.560 --> 0:33:54.200 with that thing, it's time, you know what I'm saying. 0:33:54.200 --> 0:33:57.400 And so I think it was time for him. I 0:33:57.400 --> 0:34:00.160 think it was time for the organization. Like and in 0:34:00.240 --> 0:34:03.160 the tax for six straight years, Nobody talk about that 0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:04.720 side of you know what I'm saying, Like. 0:34:05.440 --> 0:34:08.040 Clay left, were not in the tax no more. 0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:10.719 The organization get a chance to reset because at the 0:34:10.760 --> 0:34:14.719 end of the day, regardless of how uneasy he was 0:34:14.840 --> 0:34:17.720 last year, regardless of how bothered he was, we built 0:34:17.719 --> 0:34:18.440 that organization. 0:34:18.719 --> 0:34:21.719 That's a fact. That organization was the lifing stock of 0:34:21.760 --> 0:34:22.240 the NBA. 0:34:22.320 --> 0:34:22.880 That's a fact. 0:34:23.320 --> 0:34:26.279 And so in doing what we've done, there's still a 0:34:26.360 --> 0:34:29.360 care for the organization. Like we was just about to 0:34:29.360 --> 0:34:32.839 make some trades last week and I told them straight up, 0:34:32.880 --> 0:34:35.480 like yo, that that trade helped me, Like it'll help 0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:38.040 me right now in my careerit these last couple of 0:34:38.080 --> 0:34:41.439 years and stuff. But I've always spoke to y'all from 0:34:41.440 --> 0:34:43.839 a place of what's best for this organization. I won't 0:34:43.880 --> 0:34:47.920 stop now that's a bad trade, Like, don't do that trade, 0:34:47.960 --> 0:34:49.439 Like I disagree with. 0:34:49.360 --> 0:34:51.839 It, although it's going to help me right now. 0:34:52.280 --> 0:34:54.839 And so what Clay just did. And nobody will give 0:34:54.880 --> 0:34:57.080 him credit for what Clay did is he just released. 0:34:57.320 --> 0:35:01.239 He just relieved this organization the natural hardships that the 0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:04.480 organization was starting to face. Right, you're still doing for 0:35:04.560 --> 0:35:07.640 the organization. But nobody will say that. Nobody will say 0:35:07.680 --> 0:35:11.560 him leaving because they'll only make it about Ah. He 0:35:11.640 --> 0:35:15.799 was unhappy, which again he wasn't the happiest last year. 0:35:16.120 --> 0:35:18.479 But by the way, you've been through this shit, who 0:35:18.640 --> 0:35:22.080 is this? This is a hard job, like you go 0:35:22.200 --> 0:35:24.920 through it before. God has been happy for twelve straight years. 0:35:25.400 --> 0:35:29.319 To have one one unhappy year, I think we're all 0:35:29.480 --> 0:35:30.200 do just that. 0:35:30.680 --> 0:35:33.480 But in saying that he provided cap. 0:35:33.320 --> 0:35:36.160 Relief for this organization on his way out, you know 0:35:36.200 --> 0:35:38.640 what I'm saying, got some pick sent back to the 0:35:38.760 --> 0:35:42.920 organization on its way out, and I believe in second 0:35:42.960 --> 0:35:43.399 round picks. 0:35:43.440 --> 0:35:45.960 I got no choice but the belief, you know what 0:35:45.960 --> 0:35:46.400 I'm saying. 0:35:46.440 --> 0:35:50.320 So I'm happy for him. I'm happy he left because 0:35:50.360 --> 0:35:54.320 I never I had I did not enjoy at all 0:35:54.960 --> 0:35:59.440 seeing him the way I saw him last year, because 0:36:00.400 --> 0:36:03.520 he can care less whether the sky is blue or 0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:06.759 green on on a daily basis, But now every day 0:36:06.840 --> 0:36:09.719 something is at him that wasn't fun to watch, so 0:36:09.960 --> 0:36:11.440 it was good for him, It was good. 0:36:11.320 --> 0:36:13.720 For but that thirty one crazy, it's. 0:36:13.560 --> 0:36:17.480 Disgusting thirty Look. 0:36:17.920 --> 0:36:21.600 Somebody somebody said to me, like, yo, thirty one, that's 0:36:21.640 --> 0:36:22.640 Reggie Miller number. 0:36:23.480 --> 0:36:30.480 And I said, yeah, but Klay Thompson Clay better Clay 0:36:30.480 --> 0:36:33.160 out of the pocket for wearing thirty one. And then 0:36:33.800 --> 0:36:35.200 Ze wore thirty one. 0:36:35.520 --> 0:36:38.520 Yeah, and like tried to go at me on a 0:36:38.880 --> 0:36:41.239 on Instagram, like what's wrong with thirty one? 0:36:41.360 --> 0:36:45.440 Like you wore We. 0:36:45.400 --> 0:36:57.120 See it, listen, we want a championship together. 0:36:57.200 --> 0:36:58.280 We was drafted together. 0:36:58.440 --> 0:37:01.680 But if you were the number, Clay probably shouldn't wear 0:37:01.719 --> 0:37:05.480 the number. He's like, well, you you're wearing MJ's twenty three. 0:37:06.320 --> 0:37:07.399 It worked out for you. 0:37:07.920 --> 0:37:12.920 And quite Frankly's paston MJ is top two ever in 0:37:12.960 --> 0:37:14.000 the NBA history. 0:37:15.440 --> 0:37:18.239 Top two, Hold on top two. On what you mean, 0:37:18.360 --> 0:37:20.480 there's a guy named Lebron James's number one. 0:37:20.800 --> 0:37:26.160 So he talked, leta, let you keep going go ahead. 0:37:26.160 --> 0:37:29.800 The landslide is your speech over.

The gap between 0:37:36.440 --> 0:37:37.480 Michael Jordan and me. 0:37:39.360 --> 0:37:42.960 It's far smaller than the gap between Clay and. 0:37:46.560 --> 0:37:49.680 I'm not top of one hundred. But the gap between 0:37:49.800 --> 0:37:52.000 us two and the gap. 0:37:52.120 --> 0:37:57.160 Betweens just a nigga the hunter that you better, I'm possibly. 0:37:57.360 --> 0:38:02.239 But the point of the gap, like MJ is MJ 0:38:03.160 --> 0:38:07.160 got between me and him and Clay infested.

What 0:39:09.719 --> 0:39:12.479 separates what separates them on the court? 0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:12.759 To me? 0:39:13.040 --> 0:39:18.520 Is I think number one Bron's intention to make Bron's 0:39:18.640 --> 0:39:23.680 intention to make people better, the guys that Lebron has 0:39:23.760 --> 0:39:27.320 made better, Like did you see them play without him? 0:39:29.120 --> 0:39:30.920 Like come on his. 0:39:31.320 --> 0:39:31.920 But he was. 0:39:35.040 --> 0:39:38.839 And he was intentional about making those guys better. MJ 0:39:39.000 --> 0:39:41.120 made guys better just because of how good he was. 0:39:41.960 --> 0:39:45.359 It wasn't like I think this way, so I'm gonna 0:39:45.400 --> 0:39:47.719 do this to get this guy this. No, You're just 0:39:47.840 --> 0:39:51.960 so good that then that guy can get off off 0:39:52.000 --> 0:39:54.520 of how good you are. And I think that's a 0:39:54.600 --> 0:39:59.080 different thing. I also think a two year break in 0:39:59.160 --> 0:40:01.520 the middle of of a crazy run. 0:40:01.440 --> 0:40:02.160 Is like. 0:40:03.640 --> 0:40:08.520 That's that's heaven on earth, like to like to have 0:40:08.640 --> 0:40:13.440 two years off from this thing that we do in 0:40:13.520 --> 0:40:15.319 the middle of a run and then come back and 0:40:15.400 --> 0:40:18.840 keep like bro, Like you can't act like he just 0:40:18.920 --> 0:40:23.279 went six in a row, Like but he wasna play baseball, yeah, 0:40:23.440 --> 0:40:25.360 and came back in a crazy sport. 0:40:25.520 --> 0:40:25.839 I love. 0:40:25.920 --> 0:40:28.759 I love baseball. I'm a big Yankee fan. But they 0:40:28.960 --> 0:40:31.080 they body ain't going. They play a lot of games 0:40:31.480 --> 0:40:32.399 they body not going. 0:40:33.440 --> 0:40:35.680 But imagine, imagine you take two years off and you 0:40:35.760 --> 0:40:38.440 don't pick up a ball and you start doing something else. 0:40:38.440 --> 0:40:39.319 Trying to be good at that. 0:40:39.840 --> 0:40:41.960 You start playing pickleball and you're like, fucking I'm gonna 0:40:42.080 --> 0:40:43.120 go all in on pickleball. 0:40:43.800 --> 0:40:47.200 I agree, by the way, I ain't. 0:40:48.120 --> 0:40:50.040 You're still the best in the world. 0:40:49.880 --> 0:40:53.480 Bro when you come back. But I want to be 0:40:53.600 --> 0:41:00.440 like Mike. That's Michael Jordan. However, Hey, m j crazy. 0:41:00.840 --> 0:41:01.520 I don't sure. 0:41:01.800 --> 0:41:05.080 I don't think he ever put the basketball down like 0:41:05.360 --> 0:41:06.439 in my opinion, I. 0:41:06.440 --> 0:41:07.879 Just don't think so. I don't believe that either. 0:41:07.920 --> 0:41:09.040 He's crazy like that. 0:41:09.160 --> 0:41:11.160 I think he went all in on baseball to try 0:41:11.160 --> 0:41:12.280 to be good. 0:41:12.480 --> 0:41:13.200 I don't believe. 0:41:13.440 --> 0:41:16.480 Because how competitive he is. To Jeff's point, he wanted 0:41:16.480 --> 0:41:18.719 to be so good at that that he locked in. 0:41:19.239 --> 0:41:21.000 He was so good at basketball, I can come back, 0:41:21.080 --> 0:41:22.600 I think, can't fun with me. 0:41:22.719 --> 0:41:24.680 I think he did, but I think he quickly realized 0:41:24.719 --> 0:41:26.440 I'm not as good at this thing as this. 0:41:26.600 --> 0:41:28.000 Let me pick this ball back up. 0:41:28.600 --> 0:41:31.400 Yeah, I mean after a while was like, yeah. 0:41:31.480 --> 0:41:34.960 You're kind of weak like me.

He's like, 0:43:56.120 --> 0:43:57.839 all right, cool, come out to practice tomorrow. We got 0:43:57.880 --> 0:44:00.080 practice Tuesday, Wednesday off the game on Thursday. 0:44:00.160 --> 0:44:00.440 Perfect. 0:44:00.520 --> 0:44:02.400 I was at practice. They gave me the week of 0:44:02.480 --> 0:44:05.839 shoulders shoulder pass. Ever, I thought nothing of it because 0:44:05.880 --> 0:44:08.160 I was just excited to go play. So they got 0:44:08.160 --> 0:44:10.040 me out there looking like an offensive lineman. 0:44:10.120 --> 0:44:10.720 No proud. 0:44:11.480 --> 0:44:13.640 When I look back on it, it was all a setup. 0:44:14.040 --> 0:44:15.560 Shoulder pass was fucked up. 0:44:15.600 --> 0:44:16.080 I didn't have. 0:44:16.160 --> 0:44:26.440 Good cleats like they had me looking back all coach crazy. 0:44:24.600 --> 0:44:35.319 Before they it was built like joker, and we made 0:44:35.320 --> 0:44:37.360 it bad. They clipped you up against Drake and Kentucky 0:44:37.400 --> 0:44:38.840 doing the warm up, but they had the merchant. 0:44:41.640 --> 0:44:42.360 That's crazy. 0:44:42.840 --> 0:44:45.520 By the way, I'm gonna tell you, when I get 0:44:45.560 --> 0:44:47.359 to this end of the story, you're gonna know why 0:44:47.400 --> 0:44:48.640 me and Drake not the same. 0:44:49.239 --> 0:44:55.279 Because Drake just sucked that basketball. I wasn't. I did 0:44:55.360 --> 0:44:57.520 something in football in that game that was special. 0:44:57.600 --> 0:45:01.880 I'm gonna get there. So but here's so start with 0:45:01.920 --> 0:45:04.319 the pass. I ain't think nothing of it. I look 0:45:04.400 --> 0:45:07.960 back on now like you fucking idiot. But anyway, I 0:45:08.040 --> 0:45:10.040 go out to practice and they showing me all this 0:45:10.080 --> 0:45:12.920 stuff like, man, if somebody pressed up on you, you 0:45:13.040 --> 0:45:16.160 swipe like this and go through you. Come here, swipe down, 0:45:16.280 --> 0:45:19.440 go you. And so I'm like, okay, cool, cool, Like 0:45:19.440 --> 0:45:21.600 they're showing me all this stuff. Then they like, y'all 0:45:21.600 --> 0:45:24.480 have to If the linebacker is six yards off the 0:45:24.520 --> 0:45:26.960 line of scrimmage, then you need to run a seven 0:45:27.239 --> 0:45:30.360 and out. But seven yards and out, but if he 0:45:30.520 --> 0:45:32.200 five yards off, you need to go six. 0:45:32.239 --> 0:45:33.120 And then I'm like yo, So. 0:45:33.160 --> 0:45:35.279 Y'all want me to be counting these little dots on 0:45:35.320 --> 0:45:36.880 this line, these little lines. 0:45:36.640 --> 0:45:41.160 On this field, counting how many yards he is. 0:45:41.160 --> 0:45:44.719 By the way, what if I misjudge a little and 0:45:44.760 --> 0:45:47.800 so it's number one? I realized right away. A watch 0:45:47.800 --> 0:45:51.879 so many freshmen red shirt and football. The learning curve 0:45:52.000 --> 0:45:55.759 is insane and B I gained a lot of appreciation 0:45:55.920 --> 0:46:00.239 for quarterbacks, and I understand why sometimes the quarterback throw 0:46:00.280 --> 0:46:01.840 the ball way over there and be looking at the 0:46:01.840 --> 0:46:03.560 receiver that's over there, like, yo, what the fuck are 0:46:03.520 --> 0:46:05.680 you doing? One of y'all miscounted something. 0:46:07.080 --> 0:46:08.919 So we go on. We go to practice. They showed 0:46:08.920 --> 0:46:12.400 me all stuff. Boom. Practice in Thursday. I come for 0:46:12.520 --> 0:46:13.360 the game. Boom. 0:46:13.440 --> 0:46:15.640 They tell me you're gonna run this play. You're gonna 0:46:15.640 --> 0:46:17.319 line up at tight end. This is your route. 0:46:17.360 --> 0:46:17.680 Boom. 0:46:17.840 --> 0:46:21.600 When we get to the huddle, quarterback says, we're going 0:46:21.640 --> 0:46:24.080 on set hit. We're going on set hit. I got 0:46:24.080 --> 0:46:26.160 my route. I'm excited as hell. I'm ready to go 0:46:26.440 --> 0:46:31.239 get in my three point stands. I ain't looking at 0:46:31.239 --> 0:46:33.080 the ball. I'm excited this shit. I'm about to go 0:46:33.120 --> 0:46:36.239 catch the pass. I forgot all fundamentals. You look at 0:46:36.280 --> 0:46:38.480 the ball, when the snap, No, none of that. So 0:46:38.520 --> 0:46:41.280 I'm looking ahead and I got this big ass defensive 0:46:41.719 --> 0:46:42.960 dn lined up over me. 0:46:43.000 --> 0:46:44.440 So I'm like, I just got to get by him 0:46:44.440 --> 0:46:45.719 and then I can go. Casser's back. 0:46:49.960 --> 0:46:54.040 The entire offensive line, in the entire defensive line yells, 0:46:55.840 --> 0:47:02.000 I take off fall start like radio, Oh my god, 0:47:03.800 --> 0:47:09.000 now mind you hey, linemen aren't even allowed to talk. 0:47:09.120 --> 0:47:14.000 It's a penalty b How the hell does the defensive 0:47:14.000 --> 0:47:18.759 line know we going on head to set up? They're like, 0:47:18.800 --> 0:47:22.240 all right again, I don't notice it. Then in the moment, I'm. 0:47:22.080 --> 0:47:26.080 Like, man, they set up, so they're like, all right, 0:47:26.080 --> 0:47:31.000 you're gonna line up at receiver this next play. And 0:47:31.120 --> 0:47:34.080 at the time we got this this this cornerback, his 0:47:34.160 --> 0:47:38.520 name is Johnny Adams buck eighty buck eighty five, soak 0:47:38.600 --> 0:47:44.920 him wet five eleven animal all Americans. So number one, 0:47:44.960 --> 0:47:49.000 why are y'all putting y'all best on? That's a great 0:47:49.040 --> 0:47:51.520 wide receiver lined up on us. Why is he over 0:47:51.560 --> 0:47:56.160 here on me? Nonetheless, if this is the line of scrimmage, 0:47:56.200 --> 0:48:00.560 brother right here. So I'm thinking to myself, like, why 0:48:00.640 --> 0:48:01.680 is he so close to this? 0:48:02.480 --> 0:48:02.880 I don't know. 0:48:02.880 --> 0:48:05.680 I'm about to go catch this past I'm excited. Remember 0:48:05.680 --> 0:48:10.480 they taught me all the things I don't know. I 0:48:10.560 --> 0:48:13.880 take off, shad me up crazy, I'm like, oh this, 0:48:17.040 --> 0:48:19.200 So now, what they don't tell you see where they 0:48:19.239 --> 0:48:21.520 cut the video off at is he held me for 0:48:21.560 --> 0:48:23.880 ten yards. So I picked up a first down in 0:48:23.920 --> 0:48:25.000 a college football game. 0:48:25.520 --> 0:48:29.640 But they don't tell you that day. It's a setup. 0:48:30.120 --> 0:48:33.120 So I never really I never tried to play football 0:48:33.360 --> 0:48:34.040 in college. 0:48:34.160 --> 0:48:34.800 I just wanted. 0:48:34.800 --> 0:48:37.239 I knew that was my last opportunity in life to 0:48:37.280 --> 0:48:39.920 do it, and so I went out there for two players. 0:48:40.200 --> 0:48:42.360 But they got people thinking like, oh man, he was 0:48:42.400 --> 0:48:46.280 trying to play and he sucked, like to Austin Rivers point, 0:48:48.320 --> 0:48:50.480 which I understood what he was saying. 0:48:50.560 --> 0:48:54.760 I did like, he's right. I don't think. 0:48:55.280 --> 0:48:58.120 I am not of the assumption that you can just 0:48:58.200 --> 0:49:00.879 take thirty players right now from the NBA and say, 0:49:01.440 --> 0:49:03.439 all right, tomorrow you're in the NFL game. 0:49:03.760 --> 0:49:04.440 I don't think that. 0:49:05.200 --> 0:49:07.600 What I do think is there are thirty players that 0:49:07.680 --> 0:49:09.760 you can find in the NBA that if you taught 0:49:09.800 --> 0:49:13.279 them a football skill set, that they can There are 0:49:13.320 --> 0:49:16.240 not thirty players in the NFL that you can find 0:49:16.920 --> 0:49:19.560 and teach them a basketball skill set and they can 0:49:19.600 --> 0:49:21.279 come into an NBA. And you know how I know 0:49:21.360 --> 0:49:24.560 that because all of the skill positions are basketball players 0:49:24.600 --> 0:49:26.640 that fel and wasn't good enough and then they went 0:49:26.680 --> 0:49:30.719 over there and played football because they could go do that, 0:49:30.760 --> 0:49:33.080 You could go run out because you're athletic, can catch 0:49:33.080 --> 0:49:35.000 a pass and get open and do these things. And 0:49:35.040 --> 0:49:37.640 so I got the utmost respect for football players in 0:49:37.680 --> 0:49:38.560 their sport. 0:49:38.800 --> 0:49:40.760 But I do get what Austin Rivers was saying. 0:49:41.239 --> 0:49:43.880 And you cannot take thirty players from the NFL and 0:49:43.960 --> 0:49:47.080 make them NBA players. That's a lot because all of 0:49:47.120 --> 0:49:49.520 them niggas who like they've been to the pen before. 0:49:50.160 --> 0:49:54.600 They got everybody who's just too strong, tough. 0:49:54.960 --> 0:49:58.640 I've never seen an NFL player just like Ray Allen. 0:49:58.600 --> 0:50:00.239 A man that went to Michigan State for you know, 0:50:00.360 --> 0:50:01.040 he can hoop though. 0:50:02.160 --> 0:50:04.759 Uh, there's a lot of people that can receive this 0:50:04.840 --> 0:50:09.160 year receiver draft he could. 0:50:09.840 --> 0:50:13.600 Yeah, he could who for sure? But I mean, I 0:50:13.600 --> 0:50:15.720 ain't saying league, but you want to boy. 0:50:15.760 --> 0:50:17.759 No, I take the bag. What's my boy? He was 0:50:17.800 --> 0:50:23.919 wrong high school for the Bengals. Uh Higgins, I see 0:50:24.000 --> 0:50:29.960 him in person, but he could really hoop though not Yeah, yeah, 0:50:30.040 --> 0:50:32.080 way too good. Different for y'all to go out there 0:50:32.080 --> 0:50:34.279 and take a hit, like how they had you cool? 0:50:34.400 --> 0:50:37.759 You are a proficient Hall of Fame NBA player. How 0:50:37.760 --> 0:50:40.520 they had you looking I said, yeah, it's crazy, but. 0:50:40.560 --> 0:50:42.600 They put you in the version in the time with 0:50:42.640 --> 0:50:44.719 Drake and the Labla. I said, all right, this got 0:50:45.080 --> 0:50:45.920 I can't do Drake like that. 0:50:46.000 --> 0:50:50.200 Bro, Yeah, it's crazy. At least I picked up a 0:50:50.239 --> 0:50:53.120 first you Drake. 0:50:53.160 --> 0:50:59.359 Crazy about Drake though? You and a Cali you listen 0:50:59.400 --> 0:51:02.200 to music, d You're cool with Drake. I'm sure she's 0:51:02.200 --> 0:51:03.200 thinking about Kendrick and. 0:51:04.920 --> 0:51:05.280 Listen. 0:51:06.360 --> 0:51:10.279 I'm a music fan. I enjoyed watching them brothers far 0:51:10.960 --> 0:51:18.400 go back and forth. I think what Kendrick did was diabolical. 0:51:19.040 --> 0:51:19.680 I think. 0:51:21.800 --> 0:51:27.919 I think Kendrick was way more strategic. It was kind 0:51:27.920 --> 0:51:35.959 of like it was kind of like, uh, one one 0:51:36.040 --> 0:51:39.319 person and Kendrick was like, oh, I'm about to destroy you, 0:51:40.200 --> 0:51:43.120 and one guy was like, oh, this. 0:51:43.080 --> 0:51:46.120 Is fun, Like you can't like this is fun. 0:51:46.840 --> 0:51:50.719 And by the time he realized it wasn't just fun, 0:51:50.719 --> 0:51:59.120 it was too late. And Kendrick as a lyricist, it's crazy, like, 0:52:00.160 --> 0:52:01.720 I mean, out of this world. 0:52:02.520 --> 0:52:02.920 And so. 0:52:05.320 --> 0:52:09.799 What I think is a On top of Kendrick being 0:52:09.800 --> 0:52:14.040 the lyricist that he is, he was way more strategic, 0:52:15.080 --> 0:52:18.120 like the way he was dropping the songs like come, oh, 0:52:18.160 --> 0:52:21.839 you just dropped one. He never he was so strategic 0:52:21.920 --> 0:52:26.080 that Drake actually dropped great records. He never gave you 0:52:26.120 --> 0:52:26.720 a chance. 0:52:26.560 --> 0:52:29.360 To even listen to it because matters is far, it's insane, 0:52:29.480 --> 0:52:32.320 But in ten minutes it was just like Meet the Grahams. 0:52:32.360 --> 0:52:34.279 It's like, oh, oh, I forgot this happened. 0:52:34.280 --> 0:52:39.720 And didn't after Meet the Grahams the next day like us, 0:52:40.440 --> 0:52:44.080 And so he was way more strategic on top of 0:52:44.160 --> 0:52:47.480 him being the great lyricists that he is, and listen, 0:52:49.360 --> 0:52:53.920 they not like us is it's actually probably going to 0:52:54.000 --> 0:52:59.960 be bigger. But it's the new California Love. It's crazy 0:53:00.160 --> 0:53:03.799 years you turn that song on and people will still 0:53:03.840 --> 0:53:06.680 be bopping. I was at a wedding last week and 0:53:06.840 --> 0:53:10.200 DJ played it once just to see where the crowd was, right, 0:53:10.560 --> 0:53:13.080 and he's like, oh, so then his next song was like, oh, 0:53:13.120 --> 0:53:16.080 I'm gonna turn them up. Then he went back today 0:53:16.160 --> 0:53:20.080 not like us, maybe an hour later and played it 0:53:20.160 --> 0:53:22.200 four times in a row, and on the fourth time 0:53:22.880 --> 0:53:24.920 people was dancing like it was the second time they 0:53:24.960 --> 0:53:27.080 ever heard the song. I meaning, the first time you 0:53:27.120 --> 0:53:28.960 heard it, you're like, oh man, this is fire. The 0:53:29.040 --> 0:53:31.600 second time you like, I'm turned people was turned on 0:53:31.680 --> 0:53:33.360 the fourth time in the role that they played it, 0:53:33.400 --> 0:53:35.759 which was the fifth time all night, Like it was 0:53:35.800 --> 0:53:37.640 the second time they heard the song, and I was 0:53:37.760 --> 0:53:41.080 just like, man, by the way, white people dancing to this, 0:53:41.120 --> 0:53:44.279 black people dance to this purple green, yellow, it don't 0:53:44.320 --> 0:53:47.440 matter who you are. It's cultures that don't even have 0:53:47.520 --> 0:53:50.480 a clue of what he's talking about, and like they're 0:53:50.520 --> 0:53:54.640 bopping to the song. And so I just think, me personally, 0:53:55.960 --> 0:53:57.719 I think what the world need to see and what 0:53:57.760 --> 0:54:01.200 the world was waiting to see is like to see 0:54:01.280 --> 0:54:05.959 Drake accept the song. And I think personally, he needs 0:54:06.000 --> 0:54:10.319 to accept the song because the reality is, you gotta 0:54:10.360 --> 0:54:12.920 get past the things that he's saying, right, Like, he's 0:54:12.960 --> 0:54:18.160 saying some darn things. However, where you gotta where you 0:54:18.200 --> 0:54:21.600 gotta accept this. You also said some darn things about him. 0:54:21.760 --> 0:54:22.719 Fact, so. 0:54:24.440 --> 0:54:27.280 It's all fair because because both of y'all was shooting 0:54:27.280 --> 0:54:32.120 that family, shooting that kids, everybody was shooting everywhere, So 0:54:33.440 --> 0:54:37.720 you kind of got to get past what he's saying, 0:54:39.080 --> 0:54:43.640 I think he needs to like admit that it's a 0:54:43.680 --> 0:54:46.879 great record, because what I think, what I think right now, 0:54:47.239 --> 0:54:51.480 as someone who's been through their fair share of blunders, 0:54:51.960 --> 0:54:57.280 what I think right now is I think the record 0:54:57.600 --> 0:55:00.480 gotta hold of Drake and the own. The way you 0:55:00.480 --> 0:55:02.319 can get away from the record is to say, no, 0:55:02.400 --> 0:55:05.120 that's a great record, and like, man, I dance to 0:55:05.160 --> 0:55:07.920 it too, because like even you heard the beat. 0:55:08.840 --> 0:55:12.000 Beat, That's what we were trying to him. He said 0:55:12.000 --> 0:55:13.760 that ain't about to get played nowhere. 0:55:13.920 --> 0:55:17.360 I didn't say it one party function. Hold on, yeah, 0:55:17.400 --> 0:55:19.680 so hold on. I know you want to speak. I 0:55:19.760 --> 0:55:22.480 know you you you itching like a mother with chicken pox. 0:55:24.200 --> 0:55:26.640 This is what I said the lyrics in the song 0:55:28.160 --> 0:55:32.520 he murdered him. I just don't. I don't like the beat. 0:55:32.640 --> 0:55:34.920 I think I'm okay to say that. It just doesn't 0:55:35.480 --> 0:55:36.640 grab me like that. 0:55:37.000 --> 0:55:38.280 Crazy over your hand. 0:55:38.640 --> 0:55:41.000 Oh I'm not off your hand. I'm not. I don't. 0:55:41.000 --> 0:55:42.600 I don't even really like like skinned people. 0:55:42.640 --> 0:55:46.320 I really like you family, But I just really think 0:55:46.520 --> 0:55:51.399 like the beat. Just don't the Kendrick On Future will 0:55:51.440 --> 0:55:55.799 measure on them as a better beat to me, that's 0:55:55.840 --> 0:55:58.120 the thing. But they not like us as a bigger 0:55:58.160 --> 0:56:01.719 record because of how it's been marked, Bro, how it's 0:56:01.760 --> 0:56:05.680 been marketed. But also again why I said Kendrick is diabolical. 0:56:06.200 --> 0:56:09.279 That is a West Coast beat, like I get it. 0:56:09.360 --> 0:56:12.720 And so with it being a West Coast beat. 0:56:12.360 --> 0:56:13.520 Like he made it. 0:56:14.239 --> 0:56:17.880 He made it to where it's like yo, West Coast 0:56:17.960 --> 0:56:22.640 versus you like not La, not Compton. 0:56:23.280 --> 0:56:25.320 But he made it West. 0:56:25.000 --> 0:56:29.120 Coast and that's why he sees one to I'm just 0:56:29.160 --> 0:56:34.719 saying me, I live on anything that Midwest like you. 0:56:34.719 --> 0:56:38.400 You are from a fucker second, you feel me? That 0:56:38.520 --> 0:56:42.320 shit just doesn't when I hear when I hear the 0:56:43.440 --> 0:56:47.399 other record with them, it's more of that don't scare 0:56:47.440 --> 0:56:51.320 the holes. If I see a girl seawalking and my party, 0:56:51.760 --> 0:56:54.600 at my party, I got niggas bill like you a security, 0:56:54.719 --> 0:56:58.399 I'm asking her to leave. You know what I'm saying, 0:56:58.440 --> 0:57:01.319 that's not really my my type of vibe, but. 0:57:01.280 --> 0:57:01.759 I get it. 0:57:01.760 --> 0:57:04.520 It's a bigger record, Bro, go crazy, Kendrick. You wanted 0:57:04.520 --> 0:57:07.320 the ghost to me for sure? Who else comes to 0:57:07.360 --> 0:57:12.600 his parties? How they come, well, we're not this is 0:57:12.640 --> 0:57:16.880 not appropriate for that. Mike is snapper like t paint 0:57:16.960 --> 0:57:19.760 over there before I tell you after the show. 0:57:23.880 --> 0:57:29.640 What you do next? Family, bro? 0:57:29.840 --> 0:57:31.760 You know how we before we get out of here? Man, 0:57:31.880 --> 0:57:33.959 A lot of crazy movies have oppositely we mentioned Clay. 0:57:34.000 --> 0:57:36.640 You know what I'm saying, going to the maps, Sixers 0:57:36.960 --> 0:57:39.680 fucking got a b BL with this whole roster. What's 0:57:39.680 --> 0:57:41.640 some teams you feel like really weren't crazy this offseason 0:57:41.720 --> 0:57:42.040 so far? 0:57:42.520 --> 0:57:45.560 I think the Sixers has done a good job. I think, 0:57:45.720 --> 0:57:53.160 you know, with the players they added PG Caleb Martin drumming. Yeah, 0:57:53.320 --> 0:57:55.680 I think they had a really good off season. They 0:57:55.680 --> 0:57:58.200 had a bunch of they had a bunch of cap 0:57:58.240 --> 0:58:01.920 space and they capitalis doing it. I still don't think 0:58:01.960 --> 0:58:07.800 they're going to beat the Celtics winning championship. 0:58:07.920 --> 0:58:09.919 I don't. I still don't think that. 0:58:11.080 --> 0:58:14.520 And then also locking in your superstar point guard for 0:58:14.560 --> 0:58:15.720 the long like the. 0:58:15.680 --> 0:58:17.280 Sixers had a really big summer. 0:58:20.320 --> 0:58:25.280 I think, uh, I think Dallas Adam Clay is going 0:58:25.360 --> 0:58:28.000 to be huge because I also think Clay is going 0:58:28.080 --> 0:58:29.280 to have a great year. 0:58:29.960 --> 0:58:34.000 And I hope he does, and so I think that's big. 0:58:34.440 --> 0:58:35.120 I think. 0:58:36.440 --> 0:58:39.959 I think the Knicks getting Mike hal Bridges is a 0:58:39.880 --> 0:58:42.640 is a is a great pickup. I don't think it 0:58:42.800 --> 0:58:47.400 puts them over the over the hump, because I still 0:58:47.440 --> 0:58:51.320 think in order to get over the hump, you gotta 0:58:51.400 --> 0:58:54.480 have one of them guy guys like you know, like 0:58:54.760 --> 0:59:00.880 Steph Curry, Lebron, James Joker, Jason Tatum, Like that's a 0:59:00.960 --> 0:59:04.080 different level of guys, and I think in order to 0:59:04.080 --> 0:59:07.040 get over the hunt, you have to have those type 0:59:07.320 --> 0:59:08.160 of guys. 0:59:09.320 --> 0:59:09.840 I think the. 0:59:09.880 --> 0:59:13.120 Knicks what they've done is like they're gonna have They're 0:59:13.160 --> 0:59:16.080 gonna be so hard to beat in the regular season, 0:59:16.920 --> 0:59:18.600 but then it's going to get to a point to 0:59:18.640 --> 0:59:22.240 where you need one of them guy guys. And where 0:59:22.280 --> 0:59:25.200 I will say I respect Jaylen Brunson for taking the 0:59:25.240 --> 0:59:28.160 one fifty four, is you going to allow that team 0:59:28.200 --> 0:59:29.880 to be in the runner to go get one of 0:59:29.960 --> 0:59:33.560 them guys and if they can, then you got action. 0:59:33.800 --> 0:59:36.520 But right now, I don't think they're a championship team. 0:59:36.600 --> 0:59:38.000 Do you think the real j R? Can be one 0:59:38.000 --> 0:59:38.320 of them. 0:59:38.240 --> 0:59:46.680 Guys Julius Randon. I think Julius Randa is a good player. 0:59:46.760 --> 0:59:50.880 I think Julius Randall is an All Star, But Julius 0:59:50.960 --> 0:59:52.600 Random ain't Joker, Steph. 0:59:52.320 --> 0:59:55.040 Lebron Nona that I'm just saying, do you think, like 0:59:55.720 --> 0:59:59.120 with them two combine can be a joker or with. 0:59:59.120 --> 1:00:01.760 The supporting can I think them too combined is going 1:00:01.840 --> 1:00:03.360 to make them a very good team. 1:00:03.440 --> 1:00:05.200 But I still think if you. 1:00:05.240 --> 1:00:08.240 Know the competitive edge of him, that's his position. 1:00:08.320 --> 1:00:14.600 He like very good team. I love that, you. 1:00:14.520 --> 1:00:17.680 Know, like you won a championship, who is the guy 1:00:17.720 --> 1:00:18.520 guy on that team? 1:00:19.200 --> 1:00:22.440 And so like Julius is. 1:00:23.920 --> 1:00:28.560 Damn good NBA, Jalen Brunson is a damn good end player. 1:00:29.520 --> 1:00:31.840 But I still don't think they want to one of 1:00:31.880 --> 1:00:33.160 those guys man. 1:00:34.480 --> 1:00:40.160 And unfortunately in this league, two doesn't equal one. 1:00:41.280 --> 1:00:42.240 That's that's a fact. 1:00:42.280 --> 1:00:44.280 I just don't think it does. I think both of 1:00:44.320 --> 1:00:46.360 them are going to have great years in their own right. 1:00:46.960 --> 1:00:49.320 I think both of them will probably be All Stars. 1:00:50.720 --> 1:00:53.040 But when it comes down to it in the playoffs 1:00:53.640 --> 1:00:58.240 and they take everything away from you, you just got 1:00:58.240 --> 1:01:00.240 to know how to go get a bucket out of 1:01:00.320 --> 1:01:03.120 who's guarding you. And there's only really like four to 1:01:03.240 --> 1:01:05.560 five guys in this league that can do that thing. 1:01:06.880 --> 1:01:09.920 That's real. How do you feel about the additions you have, Buddy, Hell. 1:01:10.320 --> 1:01:12.080 I think there are good additions for us. 1:01:12.120 --> 1:01:16.600 I think you know, Buddy, brings shooting for Anthony Melton 1:01:16.640 --> 1:01:20.360 brings some shooting, some defense, defender. I think that's good 1:01:21.160 --> 1:01:24.600 and my, my, my love for Slow as a player 1:01:24.680 --> 1:01:28.200 has been well documented. I think, uh, I think when 1:01:28.200 --> 1:01:31.880 the team, when you got him on the team, you 1:01:32.040 --> 1:01:32.880 just plug and play. 1:01:33.040 --> 1:01:37.480 Like it's like, how you'a got two of you? It's crazy. 1:01:37.480 --> 1:01:41.800 I was like, he was five in the postseason, very well, 1:01:41.920 --> 1:01:45.320 very efficient, and it just makes perfect sense for your team. 1:01:44.760 --> 1:01:47.919 Like he's literally plug and play. By the way, if 1:01:47.960 --> 1:01:50.120 you need him to place him back up point. 1:01:50.000 --> 1:01:52.560 Guess what he can do. He can play back up point. 1:01:52.600 --> 1:01:56.920 But by the way, if you need play, all right, bro, 1:01:57.040 --> 1:02:01.960 we need you as he'll plug and play type of guys. 1:02:02.000 --> 1:02:06.880 So I think I like the additions we made. I'm 1:02:06.880 --> 1:02:08.680 not going to get ahead of myself and be like, oh, 1:02:08.720 --> 1:02:12.520 we're a championship team. Like in twenty twenty two, it 1:02:12.560 --> 1:02:14.720 all came together for us, and I thought we were 1:02:14.800 --> 1:02:17.360 losing to get in the first round, and it all 1:02:17.400 --> 1:02:18.240 came together for us. 1:02:18.240 --> 1:02:19.640 So I would never count us out. 1:02:19.840 --> 1:02:24.560 Like but I also don't think many of these teams 1:02:24.680 --> 1:02:27.560 outside of the Boston Celtics are championship teams either. 1:02:27.680 --> 1:02:29.800 I think y'all gonna have a really really good season, 1:02:29.840 --> 1:02:32.200 Like unlike I look at you as an underrated team. 1:02:32.240 --> 1:02:34.040 I know everybody counts out to Clay, it's all the 1:02:34.080 --> 1:02:36.920 dynasties over. But for some reason, the way y'all built it, 1:02:36.960 --> 1:02:38.479 I'm like, man, they got a lot of guys that's 1:02:38.560 --> 1:02:41.640 like jail guys like, but he hell can make shots. 1:02:42.240 --> 1:02:44.320 Like you said, Kyle's a great play he can play, 1:02:44.440 --> 1:02:45.240 plug and play. 1:02:45.400 --> 1:02:47.320 And then I think y'all young guys like Trace. 1:02:47.400 --> 1:02:50.280 I think he's developing, and I think his role playing 1:02:50.280 --> 1:02:53.000 with CP last year put him on a faster track. 1:02:53.640 --> 1:02:56.040 The same thing I never can say his name right, 1:02:56.080 --> 1:02:56.760 Brad PRESENTSI. 1:02:56.960 --> 1:02:59.720 I never I was gonna call him BP, but nobody 1:02:59.680 --> 1:03:02.280 before I think he's going to be. I think he 1:03:02.360 --> 1:03:05.400 got like a Dante Devin Chanzo type of the way 1:03:05.440 --> 1:03:09.440 he can domparison like even though they both got rid here, 1:03:09.440 --> 1:03:11.600 it wasn't even that, but it's just like they reminded 1:03:11.680 --> 1:03:13.600 that because he can guard, he can make a shot. 1:03:13.880 --> 1:03:17.360 And it's like, I think y'all got the buildings of 1:03:17.400 --> 1:03:19.160 a real good, like jeling team. 1:03:19.480 --> 1:03:20.320 I think so too. 1:03:21.040 --> 1:03:22.720 I think a lot of people forget we still got 1:03:22.720 --> 1:03:25.560 Wigs on this team. We had a tough year last year. Yeah, 1:03:25.960 --> 1:03:28.240 a lot, which we all have, but you're going through 1:03:28.240 --> 1:03:29.480 the stuff that he was going through. 1:03:29.560 --> 1:03:30.200 Yeah, it's tough. 1:03:30.840 --> 1:03:32.840 I'm not sure I'll be playing. 1:03:34.080 --> 1:03:38.040 Yeah, you know, but no, no one, And it ain't 1:03:38.080 --> 1:03:41.640 nobody business what he's going through by you know, tough 1:03:41.720 --> 1:03:44.440 dude for continuing to go through the season. And so 1:03:44.520 --> 1:03:47.280 I think we'll get Wigs from twenty twenty two back. 1:03:49.320 --> 1:03:52.760 And then also who I'm more more excited about than 1:03:52.800 --> 1:03:56.240 even my game. It is Jonathan committed, and I think 1:03:56.280 --> 1:03:59.440 he's about to take that next step put himself on 1:03:59.520 --> 1:04:02.720 the cusp of being an All Star. Whether you get 1:04:02.760 --> 1:04:04.440 the nod is if you're winning or not. So if 1:04:04.440 --> 1:04:06.800 we win it, maybe he does get the NOD, but 1:04:06.880 --> 1:04:10.040 I think he's on the customer. So with that being said, 1:04:10.680 --> 1:04:13.600 like I said, I think we got a good mix 1:04:13.640 --> 1:04:18.640 of vetson experiencing young guys and that could come together. 1:04:18.720 --> 1:04:20.640 And by the way, we got Steph Curry. We could 1:04:20.640 --> 1:04:22.320 win a championship. 1:04:21.720 --> 1:04:24.360 Anytime because he's that good. 1:04:25.560 --> 1:04:30.080 But it's not a championship team on paper, and it's 1:04:30.120 --> 1:04:33.640 not a championship team starting the season, but it is 1:04:33.680 --> 1:04:36.720 a team that can grow into being a championship contender. 1:04:37.120 --> 1:04:38.760 And that's all you can ask for us to be 1:04:38.800 --> 1:04:40.400 a contender. If you're contender, you. 1:04:40.400 --> 1:04:45.240 Need one road ankle, you need you know, anything happened 1:04:45.440 --> 1:04:47.720 my fucker sprain and finger and Kane ripple is good. 1:04:47.760 --> 1:04:50.080 No more like that's the luck that you need. 1:04:50.120 --> 1:04:59.280 And so the finals off, my dog man. But when 1:04:59.280 --> 1:05:01.080 I've seen that we're good record. See the team broke 1:05:01.160 --> 1:05:03.080 my heart, man, broke my heart.
