1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:01,600 Speaker 1: You guys must be awfully bored. 2 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 2: If you need Mark to send that to you, we 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,240 Speaker 2: can certainly send that your way. I'm sure you would 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 2: love to play that over and over again. In all seriousness. 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 2: Congrats on getting to the thousand total. We might double 6 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,959 Speaker 2: back on that at some point here, but uh, let's 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 2: go back to last night. And you know you've made 8 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 2: the analogy before late game situations, kind of like the 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 2: red zone of the NFL. What did you like about 10 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 2: how your team executed not just the Siakam floater, but 11 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 2: in the final few minutes. 12 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: We scored and they didn't. Pretty simple, easy enough. 13 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 2: The final play was that simply just let's get in 14 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 2: the middle of the floor to our best player and 15 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 2: let him operate. 16 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, two best players really just involved both Andrew 17 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: and and Pascal and and look wherever the best opportunity 18 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: presents itself, attack it. Rick. 19 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 3: What do you think Jay Huff has giving you all 20 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 3: from a versatility standpoint, the ability to obviously finishing unique 21 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 3: ways around the rim, but also knock it down from range. 22 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: Well, those two things, you know, the rim protections the 23 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: other thing that is really evident, and I don't I 24 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: assume he's still leading the league in blocks or he's 25 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 1: certainly up there somewhere. But look, he's he's he's growing 26 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: through this whole thing. New team, new situation, new system. Uh, 27 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: you know, new new scenery for him and the family. 28 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: You know, just a lot of things to adjust to, 29 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: and you know, a different style of defense, you know, 30 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: a myriad of things, and sometimes things take time. But 31 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: he's gotten more and more momentum in certainly recent weeks. 32 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: And he played big in the Charlotte game five days ago, 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: and last night, you know, he was he was terrific again, Rick. 34 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,919 Speaker 3: I don't know how much you all rank the level 35 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 3: of dogs on your team, D A, W G. But 36 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 3: Quentin Jack seems like he's in that category. What is 37 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: it about that guy that allows him to just be 38 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 3: fearless in big moments, regardless of if he's even been 39 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 3: in those moments before. 40 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: Well, I used the word fearless on occasion. I wouldn't 41 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 1: say he's all the time, but you know, we want 42 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: our guys to be fearless within their skill set, within 43 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: their strengths. And you know, Quentin's the guy you know, 44 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: from from his background and and everything else, who went 45 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: through a lot had to uh, had to go through 46 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: a lot of things, a lot of challenges in his life, 47 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: and you know, he's just he's a survivor and he'll 48 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: tell you that. And so you know when when we 49 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: use the word fearless, you know, with him, it doesn't 50 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: take much. And I thought, I thought his contribution last night, 51 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: uh was was very very important. You know. The I 52 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 1: think he went in the beginning of the fourth quarter. 53 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: I haven't watched the game, and I'm about to watch it, 54 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 1: but he went in there and and things were things 55 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: were you know, you know, they were fragile, and they 56 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: were tipping, and he was decisive, he was aggressive. He 57 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: made a difficult, you know, a little step back two 58 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: point shot, then he hit a big three, and then 59 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: he was on the floor a couple of times making 60 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: plays and deflecting balls, and it just, you know, his 61 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: aggression kept the kept the crowd into it, and it 62 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: kept our team aggressive and confident as well. 63 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: That's Rick Carlisle Pacers three in a row and coming 64 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 2: up tomorrow night, they got the Raptors Pelicans Friday as 65 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 2: they conclude this four game homestand want to go back 66 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 2: to Pascal Siaka his All Star candidacy. I think despite 67 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: you know, maybe whatever the win total is and how 68 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: people individuals can get criticized for that, I think it's 69 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: very deserving. Is that something that you and your history 70 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: have you got on about the way of contacting other 71 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 2: coaches to try and pitch all Stars? Is that something 72 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: that even happens? How does that process you know, work 73 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 2: from a behind the scenes standpoint. 74 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't want to get into it too much, 75 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: but the answer is yes. And you know, but it's 76 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: to me, it's it's not just something that you do 77 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: on a commonplace place basis. It has to be a 78 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 1: special situation to really go to bat. To me, this 79 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: is one of those situations. And so you know, I'm 80 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: trying to talk to as many coaches as possible and 81 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: and really I believe he's going to get strong consideration. 82 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't know all the numbers in terms of guys 83 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: that qualify and don't qualify. I know there's a minimum 84 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: number of games and things like that. So but he's 85 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: been great, you know, and this is the third game winner, 86 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: and he may have he may even had more than 87 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: three game winners. He may have well, he had the 88 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: decisive shot in the early game in our first win 89 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: of the year against Golden State to give us the lead, 90 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: and then I think I think Quinton Jackson got the 91 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: got got the shot that put us up five or 92 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: something like that. So this may be his fourth game 93 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: winner out of you know, nine wins or whatever it is, 94 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: and there may even be another one in there. You know, 95 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: I'd have to go back and analyze it, but he's 96 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: certainly deserving. Well. 97 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 2: I thought that block he had too there late was 98 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 2: it was a key key play when it was all 99 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: said and done again. Rick call out with the Sea 100 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 2: on the Payless Lookers hotline. Probably one of the wilder 101 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 2: stats from last night, seven fouls a piece. Did you 102 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 2: did you feel that like as the game was moving 103 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: along Mike Rady's said on the broadcast there were no 104 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 2: fouls in the third quarter. Did you like view it 105 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: as a I don't know, a less physical game or 106 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 2: just more of a officiating We're kind of going to 107 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 2: swallow whistle a little bit tonight. 108 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: Good question, I you know, I, you know, to the 109 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: emphasis of not fouling is such a big thing with 110 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: every team. I guess I would have to believe that 111 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: every once in a while you get some kind of 112 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: a perfect storm where you know, the game is physical, 113 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: but people are playing on both sides of the ball 114 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: with with their feet and their bodies and keeping their 115 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: hands out of it, and so you know, maybe that's 116 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: maybe that's a contributors. Well, I mean I looked up 117 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: there as well, and I saw and I saw the 118 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: whole thing, and then it was just like whoa, you know, 119 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: and fouling has been one of our one of our 120 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: challenges and so we're doing better there. It shows growth 121 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: on our part. I do think Boston is a team 122 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: that does not file a whole lot, you know, if 123 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: you look at their stats. 124 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: Rick, I know you don't like talking about yourself, but 125 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 3: a thousand wins is pretty significant in the NBA. So 126 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: here's how I'll spin it. Who throughout this whole journey 127 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 3: did you think of when you crossed that threshold? Who 128 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 3: helped you get to where you are, whether it was 129 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 3: from your playing days obviously your mouthstone. 130 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: Well, the number one thing that I thought of was 131 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: our players, and you know, we had been through a 132 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: difficult month and so that was that was the most 133 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: important thing. But my family has been, you know, absolutely supportive, 134 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: like you know, Donna and Abby have been just phenomenal 135 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: inspirations for me for many, many years. And and look, 136 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: I mean, if I go back and think of people 137 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: that have been really, really instrumental, certainly Larry Bird has 138 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: been one. You know, playing with him for three years 139 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: in Boston when he was the best player in the 140 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: world really for all three years was was was an 141 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: illuminating revelation for me, just to see what real greatness 142 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: looked like. And then you know, uh, moving on from there. 143 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: You know, when I was in I was able to 144 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: get my last shot to stay in the NBA with 145 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: with the new Jersey nets and Bill Fitch had just 146 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: taken the job, but he only had one assistant, and 147 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: so I made the team for a month. And when 148 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: he was when he called me to cut me on 149 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: the on the on the phone, he offered me a 150 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: coaching job in the same during the same conversation, which 151 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: was you know, life changing, absolutely life changing. Sided with 152 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: him for three years. You know, he's in the Hall 153 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: of Fame. And then Chuck Daily came in there for 154 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: two years, and Chuck became a great trusted friend as well, 155 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: great mentor like like Fitch was. And uh, you know 156 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: those guys, those guys taught me so much about everything 157 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: from the x's and o'sa the game, to the building 158 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: of relationships, and then you know, on on from there. 159 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: You know, I was fortunate I worked with PJ. Carlossimo 160 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: for three years in Portland. He was the head coach 161 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: back here. Larry Bird takes the head coaching job in Indiana, 162 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: which you know was a shocker to me at the time, 163 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: but it gave me the opportunity to really elevate my 164 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: level of responsibility and and really began to start thinking 165 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: about head coaching and so, you know, on and on 166 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: from there. But Indiana has been extremely important to me. Uh. 167 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: You know, my as I mentioned, my first assistant job 168 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: here kind of got me in the conversation for head 169 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: coaching jobs because you know, we came in and and 170 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: and that team was a team that most people thought 171 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: had run its course, you know, Reggie and Mark Jackson, 172 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: Rick Smith's, the Davis Brothers. You know, it had kind 173 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: of a down year the year before, and Larry Bird 174 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: came in and rejuvenated it. And you know, I had 175 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: a lot of responsibility on that staff, and and that 176 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: that got me into some of those conversations they. 177 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: Were asking on the pregame crew last night, Coach that 178 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 2: they had Derek Fisher and Austin Rivers in studio and 179 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: the host it's also on to Derek Fisher about you know, 180 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: why do you think Rick Karl has been able to reach, 181 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 2: you know, such a rare number. And he threw out 182 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 2: two words of consistency and authenticity. I'm curious, do you 183 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: have you know, kind of core coaching principles that you know, 184 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 2: maybe you walked into it with two decades ago, and 185 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 2: if so, have those evolved? 186 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, those two things are very important, and 187 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: it's interesting that you know, he mentioned that and you 188 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: mentioned it. You know, Derek Fisher was with us in 189 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: Dallas for a relatively short time. It was the year 190 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: after the championship. He came to us early in the year. 191 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: He wasn't in training camp, and you know, he to me, 192 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: he's a what I would consider a Hall of Fame 193 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: system player. You know, you look at everything he did 194 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: with the Lakers and all that. But it's interesting yesterday 195 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: there was a group of young corporate presidents that get together. 196 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: It's like ten guys led by Asif Badet, who is 197 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: one of our court side patrons at the Pacers, and 198 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: those guys came in early and I had him in 199 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: the locker room. I showed him around the locker room. 200 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: They were in my office, and one guy asked about 201 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: my leadership style, and you know he used those two words. 202 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: You know, those are the core things, is being authentic, 203 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: truthful and consistent. And so that's kind of how I've 204 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: built it. You know, relationships with players are interesting because 205 00:11:54,960 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: everyone is different, and there's a great saying that you know, player, 206 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: you can't treat every player the same, but you can 207 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: give them the same attention. And I think that's a 208 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: very important element as well. So you know, I've tried 209 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: to do those things and been very fortunate with great 210 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 1: owners and you know, great management team. You know, Kevin 211 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: Pritchard's been a you know, has become a great trusted friend, 212 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: and he's been phenomenal to work with, as as Chad 213 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: and Ted and and so you know, we got we 214 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: got a long way to go here. 215 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: And that's where Carlisle Pass have won three in a 216 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 2: row here. It'll be the Raptors tomorrow night, Pelicans coming 217 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: up on Friday. As they conclude this home stand, I 218 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: realize he's only been in the state for hell less 219 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: than two years. So I don't know if the interaction 220 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 2: has even occurred. But have you come across Kurt Signetti 221 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 2: at all in his brief time here in the state. 222 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: I haven't, but I'm, you know, like like everyone in Indiana, 223 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm an enormous admirer of what he's doing. 224 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, there's there's a guy that that 225 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: has a basic, pretty simple plan and I love I 226 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: love his his saying production over potential. That's just you know, 227 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: to me, that to me, that that speaks so many 228 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: volumes and uh, not only it's it's clear that not 229 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 1: only is he a great football coach, but he's also 230 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: a great relationship builder, and he's also a great businessman. 231 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: You look at what they're doing in the portal and 232 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: certainly the support that they're getting they must be getting 233 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: for n I l right now and I saw where 234 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: you know, Mark Cuban was was at the most recent game, 235 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: and and you know, he's he's obviously a huge supporter 236 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: and so you know, this thing, this thing looks like 237 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 1: it's you know, being built to last a very long time, 238 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: and it's it's pretty awesome to say, but I would. 239 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: I look forward to meeting him sometime and I can't 240 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 1: say enough things about what he's done.

There and maybe the 248 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 2: legality of that screen. 249 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: He'll get over it. 250 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 2: Facers ninety eight, Celtics ninety six last night, coach, congrats 251 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 2: on a thousand.
