It's funny because, 61 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 4: like I said, I never knew basketball, never knew what 62 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: basketball was till I moved to the States. I was 63 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 4: in on the playground and I see these kids playing 64 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 4: and they wanted me to play. 65 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know how to play.

I said, yeah, yes, I just 73 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 4: I just got here. He's like, look, I want you 74 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 4: to come up for my team. So he's the one 75 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 4: that first started me, you know, teaching me about basketball, 76 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 4: teach me about Bill Russell, the Celtics dynasty, teaching me 77 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 4: all the integral parts of the game, how to shoot. 78 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: Uh. 79 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 4: Then he took me to Mike Jobs, who later became 80 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 4: my high school coach, and they started all the putting 81 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 4: the framework of me learning and becoming the player that 82 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 4: I am today. 83 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 5: So pat, who would you say at that time, like 84 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 5: along with Bill Russell? Was though any of those You're 85 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 5: trying to pat your game after those guys, you know, 86 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 5: Kareem and Bill Russell, the guys that Mike Jarks was 87 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 5: telling you about. 88 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 3: Well, you know Bill Russell because you know he was 89 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 3: he was a dominant man. All they kept telling me 90 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 3: about about those eleven rings that he won. 91 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 4: You know, he's eleven ring. Plus I was growing up 92 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 4: in Boston Celtics country, so you definitely wanted to emmolate 93 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: your game after him. And if you if you see 94 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 4: me back then, I was a dominant shot blocker running 95 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 4: the floor, duncan and my game just evolved from that. 96 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 1: In high school? When did you know that? 97 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: She was like, oh, man, I'm getting this basketball stuff, 98 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: like I'm better than the guys that I'm starting. 99 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: To see every time I play. 100 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you know, I think my freshman year I 101 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 4: had a great freshman year. I remember my first game 102 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 4: we played against Boston College High and I scored one point, 103 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 4: and I think I filed out in like five minutes. 104 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 3: I was just so nervous. 105 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: It's not like that hatchet man out there. 106 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 3: Man. 107 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: The next game, I had twenty eight. So it all 108 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 4: started then. And then then I remember that they had 109 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 4: an article on me. I think I was. I think 110 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 4: I was fifty. Still, I was fifteen, so it said 111 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: at fifteen, he's already a superstar. So you know, at 112 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 4: at fifteen, I was about the same height that I 113 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 4: am now, maybe a maybe an inch or two shorter. 114 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: You know, it was athletic. 115 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 4: I could run, I could jump, I could block, So 116 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 4: I guess at that point I'd already started to be recognized. 117 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 4: But from fourteen to fifteen and on, people started to 118 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 4: think of me as I was going to be a player, 119 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 4: that is gonna person that's gonna be a great player. 120 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 2: I know, it's Georgetown. But was it any way that 121 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 2: it could have been anybody else? Was it almost anybody else? 122 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 4: If you choose, yeah, lose. Ucla was my second choice. 123 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 4: I went out to UCLA for my first visit. I 124 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 4: met Kareem, I met Bill Walton, I met all the 125 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 4: Laker greats. I met John Wooden. It was ironic because 126 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 4: they had a nice celebrating John Wooden on all his dynasty. 127 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 4: And I'm sitting there in the room. I'm looking at 128 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 4: all these beautiful women. I'm looking at all these movies stars, 129 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 4: and I'm looking at all these great athletes. 130 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, man l a. And it was warm out there, right. 131 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 4: All the weather was perfect, right, it was perfect. But 132 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 4: they let me get back on that plane. Once I 133 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 4: got back on that plane, I'm like, California is a 134 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 4: little too far. 135 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: Too far. 136 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 5: That was a long ride. So what was it about 137 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 5: Georgetown and Coach Thompson that that sealed the deal for you? 138 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 3: You just hit the nail right on the head Coach Thompson. 139 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: Coach Thompson, he was. 140 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,239 Speaker 4: I loved him. He looked like me, he played the game. 141 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: I loved how he spoke. He spoke with class and elegant. 142 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 3: I love. 143 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 4: D C was close to Boston, but far enough away 144 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 4: for me to to grow. I was a mama's boy, 145 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 4: so I need my mother, So I thought that I 146 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 4: needed to get away. 147 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 3: Uh. 148 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 4: And it was close enough for them to come come 149 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 4: to the games when they wanted to, and and coach 150 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 4: Thompson d C.

That's how my 510 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: father was when he was working, and that's what that's 511 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 4: what our city, uh, the New York is all about. 512 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 4: You know, hard working, blue got your hard hat on 513 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 4: your lunch pail and you're trying to you know, kick 514 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 4: bus and take names. 515 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 3: So that's the way he built the team. 516 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 4: Unfortunately, he was only there well three years, three maybe 517 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 4: four years, and then he went to Miami. Uh, and 518 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 4: I remember the first time we played Miami. The first 519 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 4: go around we played Miami, it was just like a 520 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 4: swimmage game. 521 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: You know. 522 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 4: They had Lonzo and we had and you know, and 523 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 4: of course the next had me. But we were all 524 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 4: running the same place, played the same thing. So they 525 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 4: come down running flopping, We running floppy. They made it 526 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 4: to whatever call they're called. We already knew what it was, 527 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 4: so now you have to stop it. But you know, 528 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 4: I loved playing playing for Pat. He's a great coach. Uh, 529 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 4: he's a great role model. Unfortunately, I was disappointed that 530 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 4: we didn't want I was sad when he left. But 531 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 4: I thought that when Jeff flank Gunny took over, Jeff 532 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 4: flank Gunny still embraced and embodied a lot of the 533 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 4: things that pat Riley taught us. 534 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 2: Your jump shot, where did you get your jump shot from? 535 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: You're a big man that can shoot. Had touched like you, 536 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 2: was dominant not only just close to the basket, but 537 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 2: fifteen foot out like you. 538 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: That's cash. Like, where did you get your jump shot from? 539 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 4: You know, I think that all goes back to those 540 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 4: guys and mister Jobs, mister Jenkins. They the ones that 541 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 4: started teaching me, you know, doing all the different things, 542 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 4: you know, bouncing the ball, shooting and laid in the 543 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 4: bed or you know, trying to get the touch. All 544 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 4: those things that they taught me when I first started 545 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 4: playing help me to become, you know, the player on 546 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 4: the shooter that I became. And it's funny because when 547 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 4: I now it's it's great for bigs to be able 548 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 4: to shoot jump shots, you know, even out to the three. 549 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 4: When I first they're like, oh, he's too finesse. All 550 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 4: he's doing is shooting jump shot. He needs to just 551 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 4: get in the painting. I got so much because I 552 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 4: was able to shoot. But if I wasn't able to shoot, 553 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 4: I wouldn't have been able to score twenty some thousand points, right, 554 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 4: I'd have been just so one dimensional. 555 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 3: And I was not one dimensional. 556 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 4: I could shoot it, I could put it on the floor, 557 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 4: get to the cup, I could dunk on you. And 558 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 4: I was playing defense. I was blocking shots, I was 559 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,360 Speaker 4: running the break getting dumps.

Michael Jordan and uh, you know, 842 00:39:59,160 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 4: I'm saying. 843 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 3: You know, we were talking and he's like, what are 844 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 3: you gonna do now? I say, you know, this is 845 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 3: my last year. 846 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 1: I'm done. 847 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 4: I'm gonna try to find something to do. I know, 848 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 4: I'm still young. I don't want to just go home 849 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 4: and waste a way. I want to find something else 850 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 4: to do. And that's when he brought it to me. 851 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 4: He said, look, you know, why don't you come work 852 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 4: for me in Washington. He was running the Wizards at 853 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 4: the time. He's like, why don't you come work for 854 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 4: me in Washington. You can either you know, start a coach, 855 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,479 Speaker 4: you know, learn from Duck Collins, Johnny Bob, Larry Drew, 856 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 4: and see if you like that. And then if you 857 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 4: don't like that, then we moved into the front office. Well, 858 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 4: I tried coaching and I loved it. I fell in 859 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 4: love with it that day just seeing to me, it's 860 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 4: like raising your kids. You know, you have all of 861 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 4: y'all have kids, so you're always telling your kids things. 862 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 4: You know, you need to do this, you need to 863 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 4: do that, and a lot of times you're talking to 864 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 4: them and it's like going in this here and going 865 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 4: out the other. But then when you're not, when they 866 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 4: you don't, they don't think you're watching, and all the 867 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 4: things that you're trying to teach them, you see them 868 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 4: actually doing it. That's the that's the joy I get 869 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 4: out of coaching because sometimes the guy. 870 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 3: You're talking to him and you don't with me to. 871 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,399 Speaker 4: Know, I think that they're listening to what you're trying 872 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 4: to teach you, and then you actually see it. So 873 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 4: from that at that point, that's when I fell in 874 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,240 Speaker 4: love with coaching. And now it's been around about eighteen 875 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 4: nineteen years now that I'm still doing it up and 876 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 4: I'm better at it every every year.

I've watched bits and pieces. I've 903 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 3: lived through it, you know. 904 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 4: I already know Michael was you know, like I said that, 905 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 4: it started to show this man has been beating me 906 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 4: for a lot of years. Uh, And he definitely lets 907 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 4: me know it. Every time I see him. He always 908 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 4: lets me know it that you have never beaten me. 909 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 4: But you know, he's a great player. He's a he's 910 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 4: a leader, he's a self motivator, and he tried to 911 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 4: motivate his team. 912 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, you know, we weren't able to beat them. 913 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:13,959 Speaker 4: But the year that he that he had already left 914 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 4: retired and started playing baseball. But you know, there's nothing 915 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 4: to say. He's one of the best players to ever 916 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 4: play this game. He's the best player to play it 917 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,839 Speaker 4: in my era. And all these things. People are trying 918 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,759 Speaker 4: to judge who who's the best of all times. To me, 919 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 4: it's hard to tell. You know, Kareem was great in 920 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:36,359 Speaker 4: his time, Doctor j was great. You know, Lebron is great, 921 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 4: Kobe was great. All these players, they're all great in 922 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 4: their own in the own era. Now, who's the best? 923 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 3: I don't know. But the the documentary about Michael or 924 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 3: whatever you want to call it, it's great. 925 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 4: It shows you some insights of what went on in 926 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 4: the Bulls organization. But you know, you have to take 927 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 4: your hat off to him. He won six championships. You 928 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 4: know a lot of people haven't done that. Bill rush 929 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 4: Bill Russell has he has eleven So there's not a 930 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 4: lot of people who were able to do that.
