33
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 5: It was like a plaid cloth, a pop tart Tartan.

34
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 4: Tr like all the friends of Dessert though.

35
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: It's really bad.

36
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 5: But their mascot is like a dog. It's like a

37
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 5: Scottie dog, like a little terrier. We were doing some

38
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 5: research before we just came in and we were looking

39
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 5: at the rivals one fifty and twenty thirteen.

40
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

41
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 5: Crazy to look back at some of those names. Yeah,

42
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 5: Jalen swore that Jabari Park it was ranked number one.

43
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 2: It was four minutes, thank you.

44
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 6: It wasn't crazy.

45
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: It was it was me and he was three or two.

46
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: It was me and him battling back and forth. And

47
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: then Andrew Wiggins came bro.

48
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 4: I remember that Bro and he reclassified.

49
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 2: It was just like he had.

50
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 4: It first time with bron Camp. Him and then at

51
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 4: one point it was like him versus Wigans. Everybody was

52
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 4: everybody was just in there, like, yo, you gotta watch

53
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 4: this bro.

54
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 2: Was four.

55
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: So I think like maybe I was like me and

56
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: ja Bars like two. Three might have been two because

57
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: he had like he just his sophomore year. I remember

58
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: his sophomore year, he just took off like he like

59
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: I think he may have like hurt his knee or

60
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: something a cl in high school something or miniscus something.

61
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: And he came back and he was just skinny and

62
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: dumb athletic and he already had the skill. He was

63
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: like he was like Paul Pierce for athletic wise like everything.

64
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 4: But then you know Wiggs, Yeah, we had a good class.

65
00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: You radiate.

66
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 4: I was was look at now, yeah, exactly. You know

67
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 4: who we talked about it before, Reggie Cameron.

68
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: That's why that's crazy is our class.

69
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 4: Would you ever see me as talking to sixth three

70
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 4: because that was our ESPN rankings.

71
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 5: That's crazy for the people listening, tellhim who Reggie Cameron is.

72
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 4: Reggie Cameron. He is one of our assistants. He's a

73
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 4: video coordinator for US.

74
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: Now.

75
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 4: He went to went to Georgetown.

76
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, Riginald Georgetown.

77
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 4: Georgetown, New Jersey class New Jersey players. You know it

78
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 4: probably actually play probably helped his game a little bit

79
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: because he wasn't the most athletic. They could shoot the ball,

80
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 4: So going to a very non athletic offense in Georgetown.

81
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 4: Probably Georgetown time they beat the sh out of us

82
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 4: one year.

83
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 6: I'll never forget it. Number one, I'll never forget that.

84
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 6: I came home from practice one day. It was on Saturday.

00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: They're like, we're gonna go forty and oh forty oh,

104
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,679

106
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: to n i T and our class came. We had

107
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: like seven McDonald's all in there. So there's like forty

108
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: h bro, hell.

109
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: Work out like that, a lot.

110
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 5: Of pressure together.

111
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really wasn't even the pressure. It was more

112
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: just like college is just a different beast like from

113
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 1: high school. So and then like it's like the losing

114
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 1: and then like you're only playing like at most two

115
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,359
Speaker 1: games in a week. So if you lose, bro, you

116
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: come back to practice. But I'll never forget our first loss.

117
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: We came back to practice and it was like, hell,

118
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 1: he's doing wall sets, we're doing lane slides, and like

119
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: he running us the whole practice. And then by the

120
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: end of the practice like, yeah, y'all want curfew Now,

121
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:44,600

00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:03,360

504
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 4: best lessons you learned in your three months of college.

505
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 1: I would just say I always to say this number

506
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 1: one thing cal Uh, I say like taught us because

507
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: it was like bigger than basketball. It was like accountability,

508
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,439
Speaker 1: like being responsible for you like not pointing the finger,

509
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: being responsible for what you can control and what you uh,

510
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: what you do on a day to day basis. So

511
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: I would say like accountability, I was the number one thing,

512
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: and just like being in a moment, like he always

513
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,679
Speaker 1: used to say, like it changes when you get to

514
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: the league, like you know, the money starts to get

515
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: involved and everything in the politic, like it all changes.

516
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: So like, enjoy this moment. This is the last bit

517
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 1: of pure basketball. I guess he would.

518
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 4: Say, last time, you really be like a kid.

519
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't even do that in college.

520
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 4: Now now they're doing you see the whole thing they're

521
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 4: doing basically you know our n season tournament.

522
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,479
Speaker 2: They're basically doing like one like that in college.

523
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like that's meaning for all the teams.

524
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 4: It's like eight teams and they all get like a

525
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 4: mill each and then the winning team gets another meal

526
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 4: that they split.

527
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 2: How to choose their teams. I think they they'll invite them.

528
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:21,679
Speaker 2: That's crazy, dog, what that is crazy? But that's crazy, bro, Because.

529
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 4: Then but I was, I was all for them getting paid.

530
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: But it's it's wild.

531
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 4: It's crazy like that. They could have put it like

532
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 4: a little bit of like structure to it, a little

533
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 4: I don't know how.

534
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 6: And there's decades to make up for multi year deals

535
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 6: because people are just gonna college up every year.

536
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 2: It's basically free agency.

537
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 4: Every year and you get you get like before when

538
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 4: we transferred you how to either get to sit out

539
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 4: a year or get a waiver. Now I think they

540
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 4: get like like one transfer where they can just go wherever.

541
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 4: They don't have to sit out or whatever. They'd be

542
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 4: out there. Howbout you get a look at you five brou.

543
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: It's crazy, bro, it's crazy.

544
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 4: And they do it in Vegas.

545
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 2: That's wild man.

546
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I say accountability, man like, I'll take that with

547
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: me everywhere. Like even like still to this day, it's like,

00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: all right, if I'm in a position and I find

652
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,680

668
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 4: That's all I got to say. And I had a

669
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:20,439
Speaker 4: better schooling to A C T than her. I took

670
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,240
Speaker 4: the A C T and I took it in multiple days.

Speaker 5: Three He took a three day a c T one

672
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 5: section to day and the whole test was about time pressure.

673
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:30,800

Speaker 9: special person.

676
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 5: You go ahead and say, he got uh special permission

677
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 5: to do it.

678
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 2: You want to the world, why do you got special permission?

679
00:35:52,080 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 4: I quotes comprehended reading slowly. That was not while I

680
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 4: was watching, you could tell that story. So I went

681
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 4: and I was like, huh, it's out of thirty six crazy.

682
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 2: I would have one hundred.

683
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 6: Got a lot of We got a lot of Kentucky

684
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 6: guys and Nova guys in the league. The question that

685
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 6: wants to be asked is who would win?

686
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 2: The question.

687
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 6: I'm not going to ask that question, Okay, all right?

688
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 6: The real question that I think is probably a little

689
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 6: more real.

690
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 3: Take it to a.

691
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:36,520

00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 4: I literally said.

694
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 6: The question up there says what's whatever? Something about the

695
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 6: best UK versus the best Novae. I didn't ask that

696
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 6: the team. This is a bit more realistic question. We're

697
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 6: our not team smacked your team?

698
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:03,160

793
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 2: like icing there and stuff, and like I'm just like

00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: beat up.

795
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: Like I remember getting to the first my first ever

796
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,839
Speaker 1: NBA game and I'm like, man, like I don't think

797
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna survive this season. Like I'm like That's just

798
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: how my body was feeling. At nineteen years old and

799
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: I'm sitting on the bench, I'm like physically like my

800
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 1: leg is just killing me. So when I broke it,

801
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, well this is I had a

802
00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 1: stress reaction in there and ain't know but like, man, yeah,

803
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 1: this is this is what it was. But like I

804
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: kind of needed that time. To be honest, I don't

805
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: even think I was ready, you know, because I was

806
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 1: coming in an environment where like mentally, like I'm used to, like,

807
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: you know, being the guy. You know, like you said,

808
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: I'm when top kids come out of high school. I

809
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: go to Kentucky, I'm a guy come up with championship

810
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: and Cope still wants to win. So he ain't looking

811
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 1: at me like he looking at me like, bro, yeah,

812
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:30,919
Speaker 1: just get in where you fit in. Like this ain't

813
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: no development type thing, you know what I mean. So

814
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: it's the first time I'm coming off the bench in

815
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 1: my career. I'm like, bro, like like.

816
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,399
Speaker 2: This is what you know what I mean?

817
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: So like from a maturity standpoint, I wasn't even there yet.

818
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 1: So like even though I like, you know, God got

819
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 1: a funny sense of humor, So even like you know

820
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 1: in that process, like I needed that process to learn

821
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: how to really be a professional, you know, so like

822
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:56,160

Speaker 2: Yeah, draft sounds crazy, It sounds ridiculous, it sounds insane.

843
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:03,360
Speaker 4: It was even crazier doing like what.

844
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 5: Thirty third and being player of the decade.

845
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, that'd be that'd be crazy.

846
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, hopefully it never happens in someone's career.

847
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 4: I wouldn't I wouldn't wish that my center.

848
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 10: I would not wish that, but obviously, like you're like

849
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 10: sitting there, you know, watching learning, doing all that, and

850
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 10: obviously you have.

851
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 4: You know, probably one of the best person to watch

852
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 4: in terms of Kobe and his preparation and his how

853
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 4: he got ready for games practice, getting body ready. Like

854
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 4: how was that just you know, talking with seeing the

855
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:48,399
Speaker 4: mentality like in person because everyone says, mama mentality now

856
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 4: have haping. People don't even know what it means. But

857
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 4: you know, what was that?

858
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 1: Like, Uh, I just got to see up close somebody

859
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 1: like sacrifice everything for their craft. It's like I've never

860
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,879
Speaker 1: seen somebody Like sometimes I go through my process of

861
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:08,080
Speaker 1: like like now because I'll say, like things that code

862
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 1: told me back then make more sense now, even more

863
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,839
Speaker 1: than they did back then because some of the sheep

864
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 1: was saying like I couldn't even speak that language because

865
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,399
Speaker 1: I haven't been through it, you know what I mean.

866
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 1: So it's like I had to go through my own

867
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 1: process and ups and downs to really understand it. So

868
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,879
Speaker 1: like I'll go through my process and I'm be like man,

869
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,319
Speaker 1: like I watch like I might watch film, I'm like,

870
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: am I tripping? Like am I reading too much into this?

871
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,479
Speaker 1: Like now because I'm just like looking at every single

872
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: detail of it. And that's how he was. Like he

873
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,360
Speaker 1: was like I've never seen somebody so particular and detailed

874
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,399
Speaker 1: about their craft. Like he'll be like, no, you can't

875
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 1: have the ball right there, they're gonna strip it or

876
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it's like footwork or you know,

877
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 1: we're going through a workout. And just like his attention

878
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,880
Speaker 1: to detail and his ability to be like, all right now,

879
00:45:55,880 --> 00:46:00,399
Speaker 1: we're gonna rep this hours. Like I know, we say,

880
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 1: like the first time I said the first time that

881
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:05,600

882

Speaker 2: Defense, like two hours. Like I've been in the workout.

884
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 1: Just do it at five o'clock in the morning and

885
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 1: we're doing defense straight for two hours. And I've never

886
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 1: done a workout Like I'm not talking about like, hey, practice,

893
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: your feet like that, Like you gotta do it like this,

894
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 1: Like even in that he's like super detailed. I'm like, man, like, oh,

895
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: this is a level of like he was basically obsessed,

896
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 1: like he dedicated his life to the craft, and for

897
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 1: me growing up watching him idolizing him, it was like

898
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: super inspiring, Like even still to this day, Like I

899
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,320
Speaker 1: get you talking about it because it's like for somebody

900
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 1: to dedicate Like I was telling my friend this other day,

901
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: like it's rare people like find their own niche in

902
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: life or whatever niche or whatever in.

903
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 2: Life, and you know they go about, is that what

904
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 2: it is? Niche? Three months in college? Right, I think

905
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 2: it's either both of y'all meddle of a great story.

906
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: But you know, people like whatever it is, they find it.

907
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,240
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I've been super lucky and blessed

908

909
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,239

00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: ability to play basketball and like love it and be

911
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,080

912
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 1: for him, like to see somebody that you know, was

913
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,799

00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 5: like the biggest lessoning you would take from from interacting

Speaker 4: I said, yeah, I think, did you?

947
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 2: Yeah?

948
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 4: I forgot about that. The house was fire.

949
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 5: Got where it was in relation to yours.

950
00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 4: It was like Zion's so so so. It was probably

951
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:47,279
Speaker 4: five doors down from where he is. So your thought

952
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 4: when you signed New Orleans it was like that two

953
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 4: for eighteen or with the player option, your your thought

954
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 4: process when you you signed there, because how I look

955
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:01,799
Speaker 4: I'm curious just because like I always looked at it

956
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 4: just from the outside looking in. It was like you

957
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,399
Speaker 4: played all eighty two the year, you know year last year,

958
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,160
Speaker 4: my first year with LA, and we were probably out

959
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 4: of playoff contention after game fifty five came sixty and

960
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 4: and for me being a rookie, it was cool to

961
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,360
Speaker 4: see and Luke mentioned, I think it was like the

962
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:28,480
Speaker 4: end of the year to see you play all eighty two,

963
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 4: even even the last you know, fifteen ten to fifteen

964
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,879
Speaker 4: games of season, where a lot of guys, especially in career, Yeah,

965
00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 4: you know contract years, you know, they they did their

966
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 4: they you know, they did their thing and then they

967
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,560
Speaker 4: kind of sit. So your process, you played all eighty

968
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 4: two and then had a really good year, shut up question,

969
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 4: and then you went to New Orleans and I, like me,

970
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 4: looking at it, I was like, I thought you were

971
00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 4: going to get rewarded more than what I felt that too. Yeah,

972
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 4: what like so just like what was that process? Like

973
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:07,359
Speaker 4: I had to like.

974
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 2: Because because we've been.

975
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,800
Speaker 4: Practicing, I had a team. I had to let everyone

976
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 4: get you know, the full picture of my question, Jalen,

977
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 4: your thought process of that, because sometimes for a lot

978
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 4: of guys that could be frustrating Or was it was

979
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 4: every one tign just one hundred million dollar contracts after

980
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 4: the next the rookie deal Jalen just saying bro Rarefy there,

981
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 4: Uh No, it was.

982
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 1: It was tough because it was tough for a couple

983
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 1: of reasons. Because that was my best year, uh that

984
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 1: I had in the league. I was really starting to

985
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:57,160
Speaker 1: blossom until like like a consistent player like I was

986
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 1: looking to become. Like I remember during that year, like

987
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 1: I was on like a little bit of it, like

988
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 1: a run of like playing well, like like I had

989
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,439
Speaker 1: like the most twenty ten games consistently in a row

990
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,719
Speaker 1: in the league during that year, and then like we

991
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: kind of called a hot streak a little bit and

992
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 1: was winning some games middle to the end of the year,

993
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 1: and like I'm like, all right, man, like I'm going

994
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 1: to the summer. I'm like, I just played my ass

995
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 1: off and I played all eighty two. I was like,

996
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: I'm definitely getting paid, you know, for sure. And I

997
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,360
Speaker 1: obviously wanted to be with the Lakers, but it was

998
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 1: like it really didn't matter. And then obviously bron was

999
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:32,839
Speaker 1: coming to stuff, so like it was like, yeah, get

1000
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 1: your ass out of here. But I remember, I remember that.

1001
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 1: But it was also tricky because I was a restricted

1002
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:43,920
Speaker 1: free agent, you know, so when you under those those guidelines,

1003
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 1: it's like it's a wait and see game, you know

1004
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like it's tough. So I remember the

1005
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 1: money basically dried up, you know, and I was kind

1006
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,360
Speaker 1: of like in Limbo and the team. I knew I

1007
00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,919
Speaker 1: wasn't going back to the Lakers like Brian and came there.

1008
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 1: I think KCP has signed or re signed shortly after,

1009
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 1: so like there was no money there and I was

1010
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: restricted agent. I'm looking at all the teams with money

1011
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 1: and I'm like, they don't got no money either, Like

1012
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,839
Speaker 1: all the money is gone. And I had a few

1013
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 1: options for like places like I think I might've had,

1014
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 1: like maybe a chance to go to Miami for a

1015
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: sign and trade for good money.

1016
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:22,239
Speaker 2: Cleveland.

1017
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: I think Cleveland because Broun I could have did a

1018
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 1: sign and trade and Bron was going to LA and

1019
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 1: Cleveland's gonna pay me a little bit of money. And

1020
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 1: the Lakers was just like, nah, I don't want none

1021
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 1: of them. So I was just like man for me

1022
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: at that point, I think only the mid level was available,

1023
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 1: and I was looking at situations where it was like,

1024
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,360
Speaker 1: all right, what's the best basketball fit. I was like,

1025
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 1: all right, this ain't you know, biggest thing. Like in

1026
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 1: the league. One of the things is like you play

1027
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:50,359
Speaker 1: so many games, you gotta learn how to let go.

1028
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 1: You know, you lose, you gotta let go and move

1029
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 1: on to the next one. So my mind was like,

1030
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 1: all right, well, the situation is what it is, like,

1031
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 1: let's look for the best fit. Aaron was like, man,

1032
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,399
Speaker 1: go play in New Orleans, Like New Orleans really really

1033
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: wants you, and you play alongside Ad, that's like great fit.

1034
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 1: So for me, it was like I knew like college.

1035
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:11,359
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I'm only going there for a year.

1036
00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 1: Hopefully I can stay longer, but I'm only going here

1037
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 1: for a year. And then you know, I had the

1038
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 1: player option the second year, so it was just for me.

1039
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:22,799
Speaker 1: It was tough, but the main thing for me was

1040
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:24,759
Speaker 1: just like all right, just find the best basketball fit.

1041
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 1: And I was glad, like I was actually happy, like

1042
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:29,279
Speaker 1: it happened for the best. It was the best thing

1043
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,879
Speaker 1: that happened for me at that point because I got

1044
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 1: to play with Ad. So I got to play along

1045
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: a talented player like that, a great player like that

1046
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,520
Speaker 1: Drew Holliday, and I played for Alvin, and Alvin was

1047
00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 1: fun as hell to play for me, you know what

1048
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:44,400
Speaker 1: I mean, Like our system was crazy, so I really

1049
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:48,400
Speaker 1: got to like take that next step again as a player.

1050
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I can be an All Star. I

1051
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 1: was like, if I get in the right fit situation,

1052
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 1: I was like, I can be an All Star. And

1053
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 1: you know, that's kind of how the New York situation

1054
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:57,279
Speaker 1: popped up.

1055
00:54:58,040 --> 00:54:59,800
Speaker 4: That a great question to answer for your Jalen.

1056
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great answer. How did you land on?

1057
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:04,440
Speaker 2: How did you land on New York? Like?

1058
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:05,200
Speaker 4: What was that process?

1059
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:05,360
Speaker 2: Like?

1060
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:08,400
Speaker 1: I remember I always wanted to play for the like

1061
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 1: I only wanted to play for the Lakers. When I

1062
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 1: got there, you know, I was like I wanted that

1063
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:18,479
Speaker 1: Kobe you know, twenty years played for one organization type thing.

1064
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 1: And you know, I remember my agent looking at me.

1065
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 1: He was like I was young and naive and he

1066
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 1: looking at me. He like, bro, like I want that

1067
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 1: for you too. With that and I'm like, man.

1068
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 2: You don't know me. I'm doing it like this is

1069
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:31,320
Speaker 2: what I'm doing whatever.

1070
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:34,719
Speaker 1: But I always remember like the first time I ever

1071
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,840
Speaker 1: played the Garden my second year in the league, and

1072
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, if I go anywhere, like this is

1073
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:40,680
Speaker 1: where I want to go, Like this is where I

1074
00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:43,279
Speaker 1: want to play. So by the time I got to

1075
00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:45,959
Speaker 1: New Orleans, I think they got the number one pick

1076
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: and I'm like, man, then eight was like I'm out

1077
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 1: of here. I was like, yeah, I'm out of here too.

1078
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,520
Speaker 1: I was like yeah, I'm not like I came here

1079
00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 1: for you. You leave it like all right, I'm out. So, uh,

1080
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:04,480
Speaker 1: New York that year they were supposed to get you know,

1081
00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 1: KD and Kyrie and all this stuff. I really wasn't

1082
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: even looking at that as an option. I was looking

1083
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 1: at Chicago, and I was looking at I was trying

1084
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:16,360
Speaker 1: to go to Dallas, and it was like yeah, it

1085
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:20,840
Speaker 1: was like nah. Once New York became an option, I

1086
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:23,239
Speaker 1: was like, man, like this is where I gotta go.

1087
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:25,880
Speaker 1: Like that's the only place I wanted to play at.

1088
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 4: You know.

1089
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 1: So I was like, man, this is like kind of

1090
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:30,880
Speaker 1: like stars and Lining type of moment.

1091
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:36,160
Speaker 2: I think it worked up. It worked pretty well, going good.

1092
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 2: It's going good.

1093
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 4: Guys, gonna get into some fan questions. Roy Ramo seven,

1094
00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 4: How is it to be teammates with Josh on three

1095
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 4: different teams? That was only two? But when you got

1096
00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,600
Speaker 4: traded I mean when you left fading seen when that

1097
00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 4: got traded to New Orleans?

1098
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:56,160
Speaker 2: Teammates for three days?

1099

1107
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 1: it feels like two different two different stages, two different careers.

1108
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,439
Speaker 1: We had two completely different places in our career. There

1109
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 1: were all still young, trying to figure it out, established ourselves.

1110

1116
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 4: Smith Smith.

Speaker 2: He was killing the guy league.

1119
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 4: He came torching. It was Andre Andre Ingram Smith.

1120
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 2: You were crazy by jab.

1121
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 6: At mikey Quen snatch. Why and why You're a twenty

1122
00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 6: four year old coming off for your first twenty twenty

1123
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 6: points per game season. Why come to New York in

1124
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 6: such an awful situation as a young budding star. I

1125
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:47,080
Speaker 6: respect the hello that decision and thank you for doing it.

1126
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 4: About say, I hope he's a Nick fan?

1127
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:49,959
Speaker 2: Yeah? Facts cool?

1128
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 1: Why because everything that I am envisioned coming to New

1129
00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 1: York is happening now. You I wanted to really establish myself.

1130
00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 1: I obviously, you know, wanted to become an All Star.

1131
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: But I wanted to win here. You know, I felt

1132
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 1: like and it ain't shot at nobody, but you know,

1133
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:14,440
Speaker 1: it was always New York was looked at it like

1134
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 1: as a place that nobody wanted to come to. So

1135
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,920
Speaker 1: for me, it was like I had just been around

1136
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 1: a dude who would take on any challenge, it didn't

1137
00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 1: matter what it was. So I kind of felt like

1138
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:31,240
Speaker 1: it was like that Kobe's Spirit Mamba mentality in me, like, man,

1139
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:34,000
Speaker 1: let me take on this challenge and see what happens.

1140
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 2: Like it's easy to.

1141
00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 1: You know, play for the money and all that different

1142
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:41,720
Speaker 1: type of stuff, but it's for this. For me, it

1143
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 1: was more about legacy and like, you know, not how

1144
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 1: other people looked at me, but like if I'm done playing,

1145
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,720
Speaker 1: Like how do I want to look back at my career?

1146
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 2: Did? I challenged myself.

1147
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:55,240
Speaker 1: I pushed myself and for me, like like I said,

1148
00:59:55,240 --> 01:00:00,120
Speaker 1: everything that I wanted to envision happening is happening. And

1149
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 1: now you know we're still not there, but you know

1150
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:06,280
Speaker 1: it's you know, on the way, it's.

1151
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,000

1233
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:01,800

1234
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 1: of the greatest scores ever. I remember when I THIRSD

1235
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:06,800
Speaker 1: we first played one on one. He was making a

1236
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 1: lot of shots and I was like, how the hell

1237
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 1: is he making this? It reminded me of Cod in

1238
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,320
Speaker 1: a sense, like I remember me and Cold play one

1239
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:16,760
Speaker 1: on one and like I would slap his elbow, like

1240
01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:19,960
Speaker 1: get him on the shoulder, wrist, it didn't matter, like

1241
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 1: it was cash and Mellow was like that too. It

1242
01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:25,040
Speaker 1: was like, once he got to that high release of

1243
01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 1: his shot, it didn't matter what it was that it

1244
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:27,320
Speaker 1: was cash.

1245
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:28,200

Speaker 1: I've been able to like experience, like in my career.

1409
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:50,960
Speaker 1: It's like having him being able to grow up with

1410
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 1: me since you know, I remember he was born that

1411
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:57,760
Speaker 1: third year in my league, but my third year and

1412
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,200
Speaker 1: two weeks later he was at games and like traveling

1413
01:13:01,240 --> 01:13:03,960
Speaker 1: with me, like on the road, going to games and

1414
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,800
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So I always knew that I wanted

1415
01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:11,120
Speaker 1: him to be like with me this stuff every step

1416
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:13,080
Speaker 1: of the way. Like as I was going throughout my career,

1417
01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:17,559
Speaker 1: he was like my motivation, you know, So you know

1418
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:19,160
Speaker 1: I just have now I'm going through like now, as

1419
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:21,040
Speaker 1: you asked me, if I'm going through all these memories

1420
01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:23,800
Speaker 1: him coming to the gym with me at night and

1421
01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:27,599
Speaker 1: going to games and traveling all this different type of stuff.

1422
01:13:27,640 --> 01:13:31,000
Speaker 1: So like he's kind of like grown up in this

1423
01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:33,880
Speaker 1: crazy you know, NBA, Bubble World.

1424
01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 2: Or whatever it is.

1425
01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:36,760
Speaker 1: So for me, it's it's the coolest thing because as

1426
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:37,880
Speaker 1: I get older.

1427
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:41,040
Speaker 2: Or you know, more years in my career.

1428
01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:44,000
Speaker 1: And he's getting older, he started to become his own person,

1429
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:48,639
Speaker 1: human being and we can really interact and talk. It's

1430
01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:53,479
Speaker 1: it's pretty fun, you know, just seeing you know, how

1431
01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:54,240
Speaker 1: he's grown up.

1432
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:58,719
Speaker 5: The timing is still perfect because you just had Haysen Hendrix,

1433
01:13:58,800 --> 01:13:58,920
Speaker 5: you know.

1434
01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:00,439
Speaker 2: But how old is Kinding seven?

1435
01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:00,840
Speaker 4: Seven?

1436
01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:02,840
Speaker 5: So by the time his one hundreds to seven, you'll

1437
01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:04,360
Speaker 5: be thirty.

1438
01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:07,439
Speaker 4: Six, right, so I'm retired, You'll be done.

1439
01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:09,120
Speaker 2: You're not.

1440
01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:11,920
Speaker 5: I guess you told those last five you'll be You'll

1441
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:14,120
Speaker 5: be watching He'll be watching film with the younger guys

1442
01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:14,760
Speaker 5: at thirty six.

1443
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:17,160
Speaker 4: But maybe anyway, if I if I can latch on,

1444
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 4: get a vet men.

1445
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so crazy.

1446
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 4: It might be like Milk.

1447
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:26,840
Speaker 2: Seven and he gets it.

1448
01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 5: He gets what's happening, and you're in the prime of

1449
01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:30,760
Speaker 5: your I feel like it's the timing this episode that

1450
01:14:30,880 --> 01:14:31,400
Speaker 5: he gets to it.

1451
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:33,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's really why it's so cool.

1452
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 1: Like like all of these like quote unquote milestones that

1453
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:41,719
Speaker 1: I hit in my career like mean a lot more

1454
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:44,639
Speaker 1: because I'm able to experience it with him, like he's

1455
01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:48,400
Speaker 1: able to see you know. The one thing that I

1456
01:14:48,439 --> 01:14:50,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't say sucks about this job, but it does suck,

1457
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 1: is like we were just talking about like the time,

1458
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:55,840
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's like to be

1459
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:59,280
Speaker 1: great at your craft is going to take time, you know,

1460
01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:03,599
Speaker 1: and it's a sacrifice. And nobody feels a sacrifice more

1461
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:06,720
Speaker 1: than your family, I would say, So like for Kai,

1462
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 1: like that's what sucks the most, Like we travel and

1463
01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:12,439
Speaker 1: I'm away from him for a week or whatever it is,

1464
01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 1: and or I'm training all day, you know, we're doing

1465
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:20,160
Speaker 1: stuff all day or whatever, and I'm not able to

1466
01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 1: spend that time with him. So like when you reach

1467
01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:27,240
Speaker 1: those milestones and ultimately want to experience a championship, it

1468
01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:29,880
Speaker 1: means a lot more because you know everything that went

1469
01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:33,320
Speaker 1: into it, like the sacrifice and the commitment. And the

1470
01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:36,320
Speaker 1: crazy thing is he's so damn mature, which is crazy

1471
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:41,040
Speaker 1: because like he understands it to where like he's like, no, Dad,

1472
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:44,519
Speaker 1: like you need to need to go work out, Like

1473
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,040
Speaker 1: you need to go do this, you need to you

1474
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:47,600
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like he wants me to be

1475
01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:50,040
Speaker 1: at my best. So it's like it's like, man, I

1476
01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:52,559
Speaker 1: ain't doing it for nothing, like it. If I'm gonna,

1477
01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 1: you know, commit to this and I'm gona commit to it,

1478
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:56,759
Speaker 1: it gotta be worth it. So like he just really

1479
01:15:56,800 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 1: makes like it worked it, you know, in a sense

1480
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:03,760
Speaker 1: like all with a sacrifice makes it all worth it.

1481
01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:04,639
Speaker 3: So it's cool.

1482
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:07,960
Speaker 2: That's amazing. So we gotta end it on that. That's

1483
01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:10,439
Speaker 2: a great it's a great way to end it.
