It was just like, so I played basketball 24 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: Louisville and uh then I got into coaching in college, 25 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: and then I met Jared Smith and so Jared Smith 26 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: was the first NBA player to give me a chance. 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: The year he gave me a chance was the year 28 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: he was six Man of the Year. And so the 29 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: team reached out, like you want to internship, and I 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: took the internship and became me and Mellow became real cool. 31 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: And this is when Mellow was like King of New 32 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: York Mellow and uh so he kind of like put 33 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: me on. I owe everything to both Jr. And Mellow 34 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: and m Yeah, Mellow put me on with Lebron and 35 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: Katie and Ross and all these guys. And I took 36 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: advantage of that, left the Knicks, start my own business 37 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: and I'm here. And when he was by the way 38 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: working with the Knicks, everybody got fired but him. Oh wow, yeah, facts, 39 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: that was crazy thanks to Mellow. You know, Phil Jackson, 40 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: that was crazy, crazy story. You think that Carmela Son, 41 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: Kayenne has a chance to be better than Karmela, So 42 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: Mellow is top ten all time. Yeah, we know you've 43 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: said that, but you've been working with Kayenne from a 44 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: very young age for sure, and he's getting so much better. Um, 45 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: he has a good work ethic. But I just feel 46 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: bad sometimes when people put pressure, you know, on him. 47 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: So I just want to just keep doing your thing, No, 48 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: no expectations. But yeah, he has a Syracuse offer, which 49 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: is big time. He's a sophomore. I think he's dranked 50 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: off fifty in the country, so he's on his way. 51 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Is he ahead? Is it like hereditary? Like is it 52 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: in the gene you know what I mean? Like because 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: some I mean some families have Like that's true. Was 54 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: La La athletic? Did you guys know La think she? 55 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: I didn't know her way back then, but um, I 56 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: know her from doing radio from when she was really yeah, right, 57 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: because I feel like sometimes when you see these athletes, 58 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: it is usually like at least one kid that's pretty decent. 59 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: For sure. You guys say Kayen looks more like La 60 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: La or Mellow. I think, yeah, I think Mellow too. Yeah, 61 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: I agree. So okay, so you're saying that maybe, and 62 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: I would thinks as his father Karmela would want his 63 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: son to be better for sure. Yeah, not for sure, 64 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: and he does a great job of so like I'll 65 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: train him, but then a lot of the time Mello 66 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: would be there and like he'll jump in and start teaching, 67 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: and Mellow super passionate about teaching Kayen. Like right now, 68 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: he says he's in a great place being with Kayene 69 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: going all of his games, and he's like a trainer 70 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: slash dad, slash coach slash friend to Kayane. So it's dope. 71 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: All right. Now, let's talk about this Chris Brickley Invitational 72 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: that you have going on.

I remember that story. Was 103 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: that a terminal twenty three? Yeah? I actually remember that 104 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: of him.

I haven't played in 109 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: a long time. You know you can, but I definitely will, 110 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: you know, because I've seen you training certain people. So 111 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: I feel like a little jealous sometimes. Yeah, I want 112 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: to really get in there. And what do I say? 113 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: I kind of want to get in viral. I have 114 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: somebody that's been helping me, and so he's been telling 115 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: me to shoot with one arm behind my back, and oh, 116 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: so you have a good trainer. Yeah, he's all right, 117 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: that's the right way to start. But then I was like, 118 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: I told him, I said, look, I'm about to call 119 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: it Chris Berkeley because you're not really going it the way. 120 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: So Jake Cole did one arm shooting for like two months. 121 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: Like that's how like locked in? He was. Yeah, the 122 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: invitation always on this Friday. Yeah, this Friday in Chicago. 123 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: It's at this dope gym. It's on the sixtieth floor 124 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: of this residential building and looking over the city, is 125 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: it gonna be fire? You're gonna document everything. Everything will 126 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: be you know, Sports Center and Bleacher Report, all the 127 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: big social media will be covering it. I'm pumped. Now. 128 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: I want to see what you think about college basketball, 129 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: but the women's NCAA because this year they're saying this 130 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: was like the biggest year ever, right when it comes 131 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: to viewership, when it comes all the attention that the 132 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: women got, you know, shout out to Angel or Reese 133 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: because from the research, they're saying that she's getting like 134 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: one point three million dollars crazy and nil deals and 135 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: she's like, look, I make more doing this than I 136 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: would if I played in the w NBA by far, 137 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: you know, which is a shame that w NBA players 138 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: don't get compensated the way that they should. But I 139 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: just want to get your opinion on how do these 140 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: women now capitalize to make sure that that momentum doesn't stop. Man, 141 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: I guess whether it's off to a right, they're off 142 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: to the right. You say, I have a lot of 143 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: brand deals. Some of these female basketball players have crazy 144 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: deals and it's so dope. And I guess now the 145 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: next thing is like, how can we bring this over 146 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: to the w NBA So they're not like peeking in 147 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: college making a million dollars and the average w NBA 148 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: player makes seventy five Tho, it's kind of crazy, you know. 149 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: So I hope he can balance out eventually. I think 150 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: it will. Even the w NBA ratings have been going up, 151 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: so I think we're in the right direction. What do 152 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: you think about nil deals because name and mislikeness. What 153 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: are the pros and cons for some of these? That's 154 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: a great question. So the cons are, it's the kids 155 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: are so quick to make money that they're gonna sign 156 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: with an agent that they shouldn't sign with, and they're 157 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: gonna maybe sign these deals that are bad deals for them, 158 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: bad percentages, bad just to get a quick dollar. The 159 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: pros are they have money, they get some money, yeah, 160 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: which is always a for sure. But it sounds like 161 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 1: rappers signing bad deals at the beginning. Yeah, just because 162 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: it's new. Yeah, it's new. I think that it will 163 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: change as you know, we get used to it. But yeah, no, 164 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: the nil thing is super dope. Imagine being a college 165 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: being like a millionaire. Yeah, Like, I can't fathom that. 166 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: So it might have been a bad situation for me, 167 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: it would have been good for me. Have you ever 168 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: do you train women UM college athletes or w NBA players. Yeah, 169 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: so Brianna Stewart, she was like MVP last year. I 170 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: trained her UM page buckets. Have you guys ever heard 171 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: of her from Yukon? She's like one of the most 172 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: popular women's players. Yeah, that's like her nickname. But I 173 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: train a few. I definitely I train anyone that wants 174 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: to play. Is it? Is it? Do you? Taylor? The 175 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: training different for the women. So women are actually more 176 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: skilled than men from like a shooting standpoint, better free 177 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 1: those shooters, better catch and shoot. They're just not as 178 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: quick an athletic, so that's really the difference. But from 179 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: a skill standpoint, women are really good. They always say 180 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: that about women too, Like even at the shooting range, 181 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: when you go there shoot, they will tell you like 182 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: women following, we follow instructions better and better. Yeah that too, 183 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: absolutely So when I work with a w NBA player, 184 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: they're like super locked in. I don't need to re 185 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: explain myself. I don't need to and that's that's sope. 186 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: I enjoy it. Now we start recently that Jannis was 187 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: saying after he signed, like the biggest deal you know, 188 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: um he was ready to retire, right and you know 189 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: a lot of contracts. Getting crazy did take a toll 190 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: on him mentally. So how often do you see that happening? 191 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: Because I can imagine like the pressure that is on 192 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: some of these players people talk crazy like on social 193 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: media in person, and yeah, in person is why. Yeah, 194 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: the fact that you could do that, it's like, y'all 195 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: can't even get out here and play you want to 196 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: go crazy on somebody. It's interesting. It's like, can you 197 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: feel bad for someone that's making fifty million dollars a year? 198 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: But the same we're all humans and they you know, 199 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: everyone wakes up and whether you go to your phone 200 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: or you say you don't look at your comments, you 201 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: kind of understand people are saying. So that whole hate thing, 202 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: and you know down with that, like I guess mental 203 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: health essentially, that's what it is. I get it, um. 204 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: But at the same time, you know, making forty million, 205 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: making fifty million a year, that's such a blessing that 206 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: I think that outweighs to hate. I see. That's hard 207 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: to say though, because sometimes the richest people are the unhappiest, 208 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: you know, and angry, and that is definitely a thing, 209 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: because the other problem is that people think you shouldn't 210 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: be unhappy for sure, that you shouldn't have any issues 211 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: because it's like, oh, you have money, what are you 212 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: complaining about? Boo who I was shocking. Yeah, yeah, that's huge. 213 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: And money management too, you know, you go, I want 214 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: my whole twenties with no money. And then I became 215 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: like thirty and started making money, and like I blew 216 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: my first two million and so fast on my family 217 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: and my friends, thinking that I didn't realize as taxes 218 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: you have to pay a manager do this. I didn't 219 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: realize that. Guys, I keep on telling, but yeah, so 220 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: I'm I'm still figuring it out. And I know these guys, 221 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: whether you're making thirty, forty fifty, they're figuring it out too. 222 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: So that doesn't bring happen. How did you lose your 223 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: first TWI billion on my family all my friends. It's 224 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: just like, oh, like you can tell your friends, tell 225 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: your friend, let's go to Purgola. I got it, like 226 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: every night thousand ars twelve twelve NBA players love Pergola too, 227 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: I just for sure. But yeah, it's easy, It's easy, 228 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: all right. And I also want to talk about sports 229 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: betting because that's become a thing everywhere now, you know, 230 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: with the being legalized in different places, and so many 231 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: people now are endorsing it, and I see a lot 232 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: of players can also endorse right if I'm not mistaken. Um, 233 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: some of these betting sites. And you also do draft kings. 234 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: Is that, yes, that's the Chris Brickley parlay. Um. I 235 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: think it's the first time there's ever been like a 236 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: trainer that has his own parlay. I did my first 237 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: one last week that like ten thousand people did it, Like, 238 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, shoot you on the parlays? Yeah, when when 239 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: you bet and then you have to like it's like 240 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: a bunch of like mini betsy and if you get 241 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: to three mini bets, you win. And some of them 242 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: are so ridiculous, but you could win a lot for sure, 243 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: and it makes the more ridiculous hate players sometimes. Yeah, 244 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: so say it's like I want Jimmy, Butther's score fourteen 245 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: points and he scores twelve. The hate is so I 246 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: would blame you if he only scored for sure. That's 247 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: the problem with and the training. But yeah, so it's 248 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: it's interesting. The gambling stuff is interesting. Do you bet? 249 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: I don't I don't. I don't feel comfortable. I don't 250 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 1: even feel comfortable watching guys I trained play live. You don't, all, yeah, 251 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: because I genuinely care about these guys. So it's like 252 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: you want to see him do good. They start doing bad. 253 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: You have a guy next to you, and now it's 254 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: gone to the point where I've gotten bigger. So I'll 255 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,719 Speaker 1: go to a next game and people around me will 256 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: know who I train. So say so and so's missing shots. 257 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: You have like this drunk dude behind me telling me 258 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: that I'm the reason why he's missing shots. So yeah, 259 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: do you feel, um, you get enough credit? Yeah, but 260 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: it's not even about that. Um, what is it about? 261 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: I love basketball? I love basketball, and it's getting everything 262 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: else I love. I've been able to do because the basketball. 263 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: I've always loved music and I've always loved fashion. Man. Yeah, 264 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: basketball has been like my male ticket to living a 265 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: happy life. And just think about it. He really wanted 266 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: to play in the NBA, but then you ended up 267 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 1: doing something and making a lane that is so different. 268 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: But probably you'll have a way longer for sure. That's 269 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: the goal. That's the goal, the goals to be relevant. 270 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: I want to be able to like train three different 271 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: generations of players, and I want to be the first 272 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: trainer to make the Basketball Hall of Fame that hasn't 273 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: been done. So that's like one of my goals. And 274 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: you're the first train to do a lot of things. 275 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: To have a sneaker deal, like you said to have 276 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: a parley yeah two k character, Yeah you have your own. 277 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: Um I saw in China.

I try to 302 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: just um, hang out with my friends. I try not 303 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: to think about work or try not to because you know, 304 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: I have all these players that I care about, and 305 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: when they go through issues, I'm the person that they 306 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: go to, so like a therapist almost kind of a 307 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: little bit. But you know, so it's like it's toughest 308 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: to turn it off sometimes. So I'm working on I'm 309 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: still figuring it out. Next your team, uh yeah, just 310 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: because the game an opportunity. But really, just like players 311 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: on my team, it's amazing what the Knicks are doing 312 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: right now. Would you have like to see Donovan mit 313 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: will be there and what do you think that's gonna 314 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: be like when he plays? Yeah? I wish Dunoman did 315 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: come to the Knicks. Dunnaman's like one of the best 316 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: players in the league. It's from here, but he has 317 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: a home in Cleveland. I think that they might make 318 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: a big playoff run and he could maybe get to 319 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: the finals. Okay, yeah, and who so who messed up 320 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: that deal in your opinion? Well, so the Knicks didn't 321 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: draft him, so the Knicks could have drafted him. They 322 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: drafted someone else that ended up kind of falling out 323 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: the league and the next up like a history of that, 324 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: like in their drafts, they don't draft like the player 325 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: that they should. And it also it's a hard thing 326 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: to do, and everyone looks at the Knicks and wants 327 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: to like they did this wrong. They did this wrong 328 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: because this New York. So it's tough. It's tough New 329 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: Yorkers do. What team? What city do you think has 330 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: the craziest fans as far as how they treat their players? 331 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: Do you think it's New York for sure? I think so, 332 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: let's number two our own teams number two awful, the Lakers, 333 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: I think, just because I don't think of Boston too. Oh, 334 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: Boston's crazy. Philly fans are crazy, but I thought I 335 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 1: thought Boston Philly fans were more soap uh. I thought 336 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: Philly fans were more so college I mean not college 337 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: football crazy they are, but those Sixers games are nuts, 338 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: Like yeah, those Northeast I think like the Northeast way. 339 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: The mindset, it's like, if you're playing good, I love you. 340 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: If you're not, I don't want I hate you, And 341 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: players sometimes want to don't want to be part of that. 342 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: What are your playoff predictions? My playoff predictions. I think 343 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: the Suns are gonna win it. I think Katie we'll 344 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: get a championship. Change the narrative a little bit. Um. 345 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: People are hard on them, like, oh, you went to 346 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: the Warriors, and you know, I just think this is 347 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: Katie's in the Sun's year. All right, let's play this 348 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: back later and seeing what kind of part ladies can 349 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: we do? Now, what about Kyrie? You know, obviously I'm 350 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: a Brooklyn Nets fan, so I was really excited when 351 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 1: we had um. When we had it all and everybody 352 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: was calling me up like yo, can we get tickets 353 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: for the next game? Nobody's really act like the Courtside Connect. Yeah, 354 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: nobody's really asking me anymore right now? He said what 355 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: I've never you have your own situation. He doesn't even 356 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: need me. Chris was supposed to take me to a 357 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: Knicks game and then I had a workout. I had 358 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: a workout. I didn't and then I saw you on 359 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: the screen. But then your friend, your friend, I'd be crazy. 360 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: Your friend went to the game and got on the screen. Right, yeah, 361 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: So look I called him. If I need something from 362 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: the Knicks, I called Chris. Okay, so actually my car 363 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: dealer who saw me my car at the BMW dealership Nike. 364 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,239 Speaker 1: It was her husband's birthday. She wanted to surprise him, 365 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: so she got him tickets to the game. I called 366 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: Chris and I was like, can we get him on 367 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: the big screen? People listening might want to know? How 368 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: do we get on the big screen? Like you know 369 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: at these games. She wanted to be able to show 370 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: them and say happy birthday. So he was the connect, 371 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: you know, for that to happen, and she was really excited. Nice, 372 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: that's a nice surprise, real friend, it is, Yeah, because 373 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: he's a you know, he was really so yeah, So 374 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: thank you you proved your point. Yeah, thank you so much. Kyrie. 375 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: You're asking about Kyrie, So how do I feel about Kyrie. 376 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 1: I feel like he's a really good basketball player. I 377 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: feel like sometimes he can, you know, his beliefs, whether 378 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: they're right or they're wrong off the court, can take 379 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: away from how good he is on the court. I 380 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: feel like him going to the MAVs and then they 381 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: started losing, it's just not a good look. He just 382 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: he's just in this weird situation right now where he's 383 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: so good at basketball, but he feels so strong about 384 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 1: certain things that people love to hate him or people 385 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: love to love him. He's just, you know, he's in that. 386 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: I heard people saying that they were blaming Kyrie for 387 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: the for the MAVs losing. Yeah, that's tough though, because 388 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: you know that's five players out there, that's a whole 389 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: team as a coach, so it's not ever one person's fault. 390 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: Facts now, Yeah, Ever, Now, I also saw you could 391 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 1: have made a transition and went to go work for 392 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: Kanye West. Yeah, and kind with the whole Donda Academy 393 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: thing when he started Oh wow, so when he started 394 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: the basketball sushi every day. Facts. So you guys know 395 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: Justin the Boy, Yes, So Justin the Boy was my 396 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: first ever intern. No, I've never said this. Yeah, wait 397 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: a minute, dude over here, my friend Milo he uh, 398 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: long story short, he works for me now. I used 399 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: to work him out when he was like a little kid, 400 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 1: and Justin the boy was rebounding for us, right a. Yeah, 401 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: because Justin used to play basketball too, right, Okay for sure, 402 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: So you know through Justin, um I met Kanye kind 403 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: of wanted me to help with that whole with the 404 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: whole Donda team, and uh but it didn't work out. 405 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: But he was very persistent. Why didn't it work out 406 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: for you? Uh, a few different reasons. Didn't drink anymore. Yeah, 407 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: that's funny. Get a man, Well you might have the 408 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: bullet Chris, I have for sure for sure. Yeah, because 409 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 1: I don't know how much longer. Yeah, if it's still 410 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: a team still around Doda Academy, the team, it's not 411 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: I think they the school's not even I know the 412 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: school is not a school, but it's that accredited. Yeah, 413 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: it was a best There was a basketball team and 414 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,719 Speaker 1: they were nice. They were really good. Even the boy 415 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: did a really good job putting that team together, and 416 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: so it was appealing and at the time I was 417 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: before Kanye kind of went off, like you know, on 418 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: his So I was like, I thought about it. I 419 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: definitely thought about it, But the Adidas stuff would have 420 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: messed up, the Puma and stuff. There are a few 421 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: things that would have hurt. So how do you um 422 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: decide what deals are to take and what deals not 423 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: to take when you have so many? I'm sure now, 424 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: so off the bat, I was just taking everything years 425 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: five years ago because I had no money, and I 426 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: was just like wow. And then uh, literally I took 427 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: like the crazy deals. Wait, wait do you say with scissors? 428 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: Like a steadcaster doesn't even exist? No, I think they 429 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: still have some la I think, but I would have 430 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: taken something like that for sure, like seriously. And then 431 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: I learned my shout out to Alex Coblan's my manager, 432 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: and he's like, he should get so much credit. Like 433 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm a trainer and I have like NBA All Star deals. 434 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: It's amazing what he's done. And now I just if 435 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: it aligns with me, if it makes sense, we'll do it. Well, 436 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: let's talk about some of the deals you have that 437 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: I like.

No, I think it's amazing though, the 462 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: way that you've been able to navigate this whole situation. 463 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 1: I also feel like part of it is that people 464 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: also like you as a person, because you know how 465 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: hard it would be to work with somebody that, Okay, 466 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: he's a great trainer, but he's an asshole. Yeah you know, 467 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: yeah for sure. And then you know, we're all humans. 468 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: We go through moods. I'm a Gemini, I'm a super 469 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: so I need to like sometimes like put that, put 470 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: my ego and everything to the side or how I'm feeling, 471 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: and then just be there for someone. And I've gone 472 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: pretty good at that. But I also need to care 473 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: for myself, so I'm figuring that out. Yeah see, And 474 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: that's exactly what we were talking about with the mental health. 475 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: With somebody like Jannis. You might feel like this person 476 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: has it all right, and you're doing something that you 477 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: love and really making money off of it, making some 478 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 1: good money, but you know, having to take care of 479 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 1: yourself is should be a priority also because you can't 480 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: take care of anybody else if for sure. And then 481 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: you also have the gym in NBA two K. Yeah, 482 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: and so there's been situations when people have showed up 483 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: all the time, so it's it's it's a it's an 484 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 1: amazing thing. So it's at the Summit that's my gym. 485 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: People think that it's like kind of like a gym 486 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: that you could just show up too, but it's a 487 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: residential building.

But you I probably 508 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: probably do need to like something. I don't know. I 509 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: don't think so because I I don't say that that 510 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: brings attention to you. I say the same thing, right 511 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: because I don't. Yeah, it's yeahs And it's like yeah, 512 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: because I go everywhere by myself. I walk around by myself, 513 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: but you know, for a safety purposes. But you usually 514 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 1: do have a friend or something with you. Yeah, what 515 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Nothing? Okay? Do you have security? No? 516 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: Have you ever? Only when like some of them, I 517 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: got parties and stuff. No, only when I had to 518 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: work on the breakfast club. No, but they did have 519 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 1: security that walked us in and out of the building 520 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: every day. Some crazy stories about that, like didn't yeh 521 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: ing and got jumping? Is that true that all that 522 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: stuff is true. Well this video of like what happened 523 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: where somebody approached him and ask for a drop and 524 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: then whatever. But that was the only time that I've 525 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: ever like had secure every day, you know. And it's 526 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: also dark out at that time in the morning. Yeah, 527 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: so you know that was the only reason why. But yes, 528 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: back to the music, the music business. Welcome to the grind. 529 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: I know that's been a tough time for you to 530 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: get like certain clearances and think sure, I like learned 531 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 1: the music industry. So I had a whole body of 532 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: work and then I realized these labels like they didn't 533 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: want to see me do that, like because where are 534 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: they getting out of it? And so I released a 535 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: Dirk song. I released the Davis and Jadakiss song, which 536 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: meant a lot to me because those are like my 537 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: two favorite rappers to Geminize too, my close friends. And 538 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: I was ready to release like a whole project. And 539 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: like with the label stuff and the label the independent 540 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: label was under, it was just uh, it was just 541 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: like I could have kept pushing, but it was just 542 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: so much. I already have so much going on, So 543 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: I'm just figuring out whether I want to do it. 544 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: I'm probably not gonna do anymore. To be honest, maybe 545 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,479 Speaker 1: it's a pause. Yeah, that's disappointing because you were so 546 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: excited about it. Sure, yeah, and that was like something 547 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: that you loved, you know, and then to know that, like, man, 548 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: I put this effort into it, but because of the 549 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 1: politics of the music this Sure, but maybe it's a 550 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: pause and maybe you can rethink it and then figure 551 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: out how to do it. Maybe, Yeah, a different way. 552 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: Everything happens for a reason. Yeah, we'll figure it out. 553 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: Have you ever worked with jam Morant so I have not. 554 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 1: I think he's like one of the best players in 555 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: the NBA. I feel like he had he you know, 556 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 1: the media portrays all this stuff and uh, I feel 557 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: like sometimes he's like a target. Um yeah, but I 558 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: feel like John Moran is one of the best guards 559 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: in the league. I feel like people just need to 560 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,360 Speaker 1: get off his case a little bit. Yeah, he's made mistakes, 561 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: but if you're twenty one, twenty two, man, you're figuring 562 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: out what it's like for fame and having money, You're 563 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: gonna make mistakes. So well, he has to have have been canceled, though. 564 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: I do feel like they're giving him, for sure, you know, 565 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: opportunities to ye and come back and he will shout out. 566 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 1: John Moran, you know who I was talking to recently, 567 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: to Sebastian Telfairry. Yeah, he has a podcast. He asked 568 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: me to go on his podcast. Yeah. He was saying 569 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: that he wants to start like doing things like that 570 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: and having people look at him and because he's been 571 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 1: through a lot of different things in his career. An 572 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: amazing story. Yeah. And he's a legend, Yeah, like a 573 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: New York legend. If he was here during the NIL, 574 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: he would be making millions. He missed. He missed that 575 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: na L stuff, sort like Isaiah Washington, the Jelly Fam. 576 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've heard of that. So the 577 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: Jelly Fam. There's a few like players that missed that 578 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: na L stuff that would have made big money off 579 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: of it. But Sebastian is a crazy story. You know, 580 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: that's like the hype story of you know, that's what 581 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: the NIL does. I feel like sometimes they can give 582 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: these players like a false like I have money right now. 583 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: I made it, so you haven't made it yet. You 584 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: still have to make it to the NBA and sign 585 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: that contract. That two or three million dollars really isn't 586 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: much compared to like the two hundred and fifty million 587 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: dollar deal you could sign. So I just hope that 588 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: nil stuff doesn't mess up these players minds and they 589 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: don't work as hard. Yeah, that's good, and that's good 590 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: advice to give to the next generation too, for sure. 591 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: They're coming into this because now and I've always felt 592 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: like they should be able to make money in college. 593 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: We see a lot of unfortunate things happen, you know, 594 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 1: when people have to worry about their families and worry 595 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: about how do I take care of myself and you 596 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: see everybody else making money off of you but you. 597 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: So that's important, but it's also important to make sure 598 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: that there's some type of like financial train planning for sure, 599 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: education that comes with that, for sure, just like signing 600 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: good contracts and having the right people and having you know, 601 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: lawyers that you know and all of that stuff. I 602 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: feel like, So I personally feel like schools should be 603 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: set up different, Like what are we really doing with 604 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: like a science class in real life? Or how many 605 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: classes did you take that you use today? Typing class okay, 606 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: and you know a typing class, typing class midle school. 607 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: And then also I'll learned how to write checks. What 608 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: we don't need checks anymore. But I learned how to 609 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: write checks and balance the check book in eleventh grade. 610 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: So I felt like that was you didn't take those. Yeah, 611 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: it was like extra classes. I just how do you 612 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: feel about that? Though? School in like the classes and 613 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: like what you learned? Do you do you apply that 614 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: into real life? You know what? Some things I did, 615 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: Like when I was in college and I had to 616 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: choose courses I got took screenwriting and I probably really 617 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: use that and I know and I know how to 618 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: write a screenplay, so that's important for me. But certain 619 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: things I took, I'm gonna tell you what I took 620 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: when I was really young. In fifth grade, we had 621 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: to take Latin. That's really helpful. Now, Latin is great 622 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: because it's the root of words. So the reallyson why 623 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: I've always been able to know definitions and how to 624 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: spell well and like all of that is because I 625 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: took Latin when I was young. It's important and so 626 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: even though that's a dead language, also really helpful because 627 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: that's where the root of English comes from. That stop. 628 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: I just feel like that should be a tax class, 629 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: like the sales Yeah, real estate class. Would be amazing. 630 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: It's like that's like real life stuff fun. Yeah, So 631 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: I feel like skill. I think where you can learn 632 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: actual skills. I think it's super health. Tell me one 633 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: class you think they should have that should be a 634 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: regular essential class for everyone. Yeah, some type of public 635 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: speaking class. Like I think you should learn how to 636 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: do accounting. Yes, yeah, I think debate marketing. I think 637 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: a marketing class would be really helpful for sure, because 638 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: and I always and I do feel like writing is important. 639 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: Being able to any job, no matter what it is 640 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: that you do, being able to write and to send 641 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: an email. Place. Where do you see your future going? Chris? 642 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: Where do I see it? I'm I'm just gonna keep 643 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: riding out like I'm just so blessed. I thank God 644 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: every all day that I'm in this position. Um, but 645 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: maybe get into coaching. I want to get back in 646 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: the NBA. So I was in the NBA for four 647 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: years and once just like wave comes down with the brands, 648 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: I know I'm not gonna be getting these deals forever. 649 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: Once that like dies down, Maybe I'll coach in the NBA. 650 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: Maybe I'll coach in college something like that. Would that 651 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: would be amazing for you to be a coach for sure, 652 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: like to be like a head coach. Yeah, for sure, 653 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 1: You're really gonna be stressed in so you gotta figure 654 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: you gotta figure this, you gotta figure this this mental 655 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: health stress. Yeah, And I don't want to sound like 656 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: a crazy person. I'm saying, you're right, there's no stability. 657 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: You might get fired. So I'm just trying to be 658 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: good my money. And so once I get to that, 659 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: if I have a losing season, I get fired, I'm 660 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: still good. My family's good. So I'm trying to set 661 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: up my family now, right. Yeah, do you think that 662 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: there's people that hate on you like in Yeah, but 663 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,239 Speaker 1: like for what reasons? Because it's like because it got 664 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: fifty million brands. Well, it's like you didn't. You're teaching 665 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: basketball to these NBA players and you weren't an NBA player. 666 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: You know you got that. But that's kind of an 667 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: ignorant way to think, because you can still study something 668 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: and be good at it, right. You know, I feel 669 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: like the NBA players themselves are saying, for sure, now, 670 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: I've always I told you before I saw Jimmy Butler 671 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: giving you your credit for helping him with his shot, 672 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: and if they're telling you that you help them and 673 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: they're coming to you because they see the benefit of it. 674 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: Then for sure, that's what really matters more than what 675 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: somebody and we live in like the social media is 676 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: like a toxic world, like you know, Twitter is. If 677 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: I ever need motivation, I just go to Twitter and 678 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: type my name in get aggravated, and it's like really 679 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: not aggravated and motivated what I'm saying, Like, Who's That's 680 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: what I was trying to figure out because I feel 681 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: like for a certain I haven't seen or heard anybody 682 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: say anything negative about you, But I'm just wondering it 683 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: does that come with it? Yeah? For sure, if a 684 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: player has one bad game, you know, Donoman could have 685 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: ten good games one bad game and that's NBA ten. 686 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: People on Twitter like he needs a new trainer, you know, 687 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: that type of deal. So people are very critical on that. 688 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: People are critical and always not focusing on the players. 689 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: He has these brand deals. But in reality, it actually 690 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: makes it so I don't have to ask the players 691 00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: do I need this money. I'm making all my money 692 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: the brand, so it actually I don't have to stress 693 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: the players that with money. So there's so many positives 694 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: that come with the situation I'm in and I get 695 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: the hate I get. I get someone hating on me, 696 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: but I don't let it bother me like I used to. 697 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,719 Speaker 1: How do you decide who you want to work with too? 698 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: Because I'm sure that there's like a line of people 699 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: that have been trying to hit you up, like, Yo, 700 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: can we train? Can I get in the gym? For sure? 701 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: Just if like what's your motivation? Do you want to 702 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: work out because you want to be on Instagram? Or 703 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: do you want to work out because you you know 704 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: all all that stuff. I want you to work out 705 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: with me because you want to get better. You want 706 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: to become a better shooter. You love the game. If 707 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: we don't take a camera out, you're still gonna work 708 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: really hard. And I'm open to working with any NBA player, 709 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: whether you're a starter, whether you're the fifteenth guy. I 710 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: just like I said, I love working with players that 711 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: love the game. Is it competitive in the within other trainers? 712 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: For sure? For sure. But I'm the guy that supports 713 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: every trainer. So if I work with a player and 714 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: he's talking about his trainer, I'm never gonna talk bad 715 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: about trainers. I just feel like you just look crazy 716 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: socially as you get older. Like I want someone a 717 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: young trainer to come and start signing all these deals 718 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: and I want to like shout them out and pick 719 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 1: them up. Like I'm big on that. I feel like, 720 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: you know, it caused Zerotas to support someone, it's not 721 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: gonna hurt you. Yeah, I feel like you could help 722 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: players broker deals too, like, because you've done such a 723 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: great job with yourself and getting some of these brand partnerships, 724 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: and there might be things that you can't do. Yeah, 725 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: you know that you could actually help other players for sure, 726 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: But then then I'm pissing off a bunch of agents 727 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 1: and managers and so then I'm getting into that area. 728 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 1: So I have to like wash out with that type 729 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: of stuff. So be You're right, my manager should have 730 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: other players for sure. Yeah, you never thought about being 731 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: an agent. Nah, that's a tough business. It's like you 732 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: gotta it's just so much that goes with it. Talk 733 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: about stress an agent, that's stressful.
