Manny Harris grew up in Detroit, Michigan, 57 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 4: and Manny I remember growing up like as a young kid, 58 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 4: like fifth and sixth grade, seventh grade, We're coming from 59 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 4: saging On, small city.

Like, 166 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: it's also a school, you know, like people go there 167 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: like if I was a Michigan student now, like the 168 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: football teams cheating, Like I don't know what's happening in 169 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: those classes. 170 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 4: You know, well, you know, this is also a school 171 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 4: that really prides themselves on trying to make us went 172 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 4: to Michigan State for like we're done. 173 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know. 174 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 4: It's just I think it's pretty ironic that they're so 175 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: smart and they had caught like this, like. 176 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 3: Badly, like branhanded. 177 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 4: Real, it's a little ironic to those of us that 178 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 4: they try to they try to make feel less than 179 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 4: I'll just leave it at that. 180 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: Yes, I feel like you almost what's really cool about 181 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 2: you is that, in a way, you've been an underdog 182 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 2: for so long and you just continuously continuously prove people wrong, right, 183 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: And I'm curious being a second rounder does that Do 184 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 2: you think that that's shaped who you are now? 185 00:08:59,480 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 4: Like? 186 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: Do you do you remind yourself constantly like that many 187 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: teams passed up on me, and yet I was this good. 188 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 2: You know, I am this good for. 189 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 3: A long time. 190 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 4: For a long time, I will remind myself that because 191 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 4: to your point, I was the underdog. And you know 192 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 4: what I've tried to learn throughout my journey is I 193 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 4: was the underdog for a very long time. I'm no 194 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 4: longer the underdog, and I think I think it's very 195 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 4: important that you can identify those stages because the mentality 196 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 4: that you have to have as an underdog. If you 197 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 4: have that same mentality and you're not the underdog, it's distasteful. 198 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 4: And so for me, I've always tried to and like, 199 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 4: don't get me wrong, it's hard to do because you 200 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 4: go so long with this mindset of I just need 201 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 4: to get it out the mud. I need to get 202 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: it anyway I can. And you go so long with 203 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 4: this mindset and then you get to a space where 204 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: the world no longer view you that way. And that's 205 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 4: when it gets interesting, because when you're the underdog, the 206 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 4: world is rooting for you and they want to see 207 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 4: you do well. Everybody loves a good underdog, everybody loves 208 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 4: a good Cinderella story, and so it's all fine and 209 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 4: Danny the moment they no longer see you as the underdog, 210 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 4: where now they say, oh, well, what I think of 211 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 4: him is this. I no longer view him or her 212 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 4: as this. 213 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 3: This is where I placed him at. 214 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 4: And that's when it starts to get interesting because again, 215 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 4: those same things that you did as an underdog, now 216 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 4: that they no longer look at you that way, it's 217 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 4: not viewed totally different. 218 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 3: And so I think, for me. 219 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 4: An interesting adjustment that I had to make, and I 220 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 4: must be honest, you still like it's a never ending thing, 221 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 4: like you never really get to the space of life. 222 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 3: I'm not the underdog. 223 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 4: I never do underdog things like there are still times 224 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 4: where you do those things because it was such a 225 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 4: part of you for so long, you know, And so 226 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 4: I think just identifying when you're no longer the underdog 227 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 4: is as important as having the underdog mentality when you 228 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 4: need it. 229 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 2: And what advice do you think you would give sixteen 230 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 2: year old Dre to be like in that time when 231 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 2: I mean you said you played freshman basketball as a 232 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: freshman and then you were a role player your sophomore 233 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 2: year on varsity. But what would you tell that sixteen 234 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: year old kid, like, I'm a four time NBA champion, Like, 235 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 2: what do you think you would think? 236 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 4: Think? I think what I would tell that kid is 237 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 4: I would tell him the things that he need to 238 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 4: understand about the journey along the way, because you go 239 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 4: through so much on this journey, and some of the 240 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 4: things you go through with people, and some of the 241 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 4: things you have to go through alone. 242 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: And it's. 243 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 4: I think it's it's very it's very interesting because what 244 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 4: you end up realizing is so many people can't do it, Like, 245 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 4: so many people can't walk through those things alone or 246 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 4: walk through those things with somebody and the one, but 247 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 4: the but the very few. Like it's it's a reason 248 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 4: it's only four hundred and fifty guys in NBA, like, 249 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 4: because the few that can go through those things, the 250 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 4: few that can come out on the other side of 251 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 4: that are the ones that you see and they make 252 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: it and you know the world knows them and you 253 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 4: know the world can appreciate their craft. 254 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 2: I think there's one anomally to that, and that's Patrick 255 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,599 Speaker 2: mccau because, like, you can't win three championships in like 256 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 2: your three years in the league and then just like 257 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 2: dip and then be like I did it, you know 258 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 2: what I mean, Like I really went through it, you know. 259 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 3: One percent. 260 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 4: But even that, like I think, like I love Pat 261 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 4: by the way, like Pat was my teammate, we won 262 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 4: two championships with one championship together, we won one championship together. 263 00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: I think you want too and then you want to 264 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 2: one here. 265 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 3: One with the raptions, okay, but but Patrick. 266 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 4: Is an anomaly, and I think it's a little different feeling, right, 267 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 4: Like you're such a basketball fan, you'll remember that. 268 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 3: I think I. 269 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: Loved Patrick McCaw. I was like ten years old and 270 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 2: I was like, that is the most beautiful man I've 271 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 2: ever seen at ten years old. Let him know, Like 272 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 2: I think. 273 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 4: Uh, I think with Patrick, you didn't look at the 274 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 4: way the career ultimately ends up panning out. And I 275 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 4: think if there were a lot of things that Patrick 276 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 4: would change, I think, but there's also things that along 277 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 4: my journey that I was yeah, you know, and so 278 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 4: I just think, uh, and looking back at the sixteen 279 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 4: year old and saying, what what that has to be? 280 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 4: Along the way, you just have to understand the steps 281 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 4: of the journey because it's it's it's brutal. There's times 282 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 4: where you want to quit, and I think it's it's okay. 283 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 3: To fill those feelings, right, Like, we go through it. 284 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 4: And as a basketball player, you're taught as an athlete, 285 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 4: you're taught like, no, you just gotta keep going, keep going, 286 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 4: like get through it, keep going, and. 287 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 3: That bils you out to be a certain type of way. 288 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 4: But I think in going through it, you have to 289 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 4: understand that, like try not to ride the roller coaster 290 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 4: because it's and by the way, it's still a roller coaster. 291 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 4: Like I'm thirty three years old, I'm playing at the 292 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 4: highest level you can play. 293 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 3: And it's still a roller coaster. You know. 294 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 4: But as you get older, as you've been in it, 295 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 4: you learn like that, I can't ride. 296 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 3: This roller coaster. 297 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 4: Like sometimes you experience the highest of highs and you 298 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 4: experience the lowest of lows, and to ride that wave 299 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,359 Speaker 4: the entire time, it's impossible. 300 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a mental game too, one hundred. 301 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 4: So that's what I would just tell the sixteen year 302 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 4: old men, is like, okay, great, there's four championships, there's 303 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 4: these things in college.

I can't 326 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 4: recall the exact years, either twenty seventeen or eighteen, who 327 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 4: were playing against the Portland Trailblazers. 328 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 3: And Damian Liller gets the ball on the wing. 329 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 4: After we turn the ball over, Clay turned the ball 330 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 4: over and Damian Lilla gets the tracks the ball down. 331 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 4: He gets the ball on the wing. If you know, 332 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 4: Damian lillar like, you better get out there. He's shooting it. 333 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 4: So I run out there and I take this shot 334 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 4: away and then no Avan is coming running down the court. 335 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 4: He hears no advante and I circle back around to 336 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: the rim and I just go vertical. And when I 337 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 4: realized it, I'm like, oh man, I'm dunked on Because I. 338 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 3: Circled, I'm right under the rim. 339 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 4: This dude got a full he has a full head 340 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 4: start coming downhill at me, and I gotta jump straight 341 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 4: up and go vertical. And I just jumped and went 342 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 4: vertical and I got the block. That to me, I 343 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 4: would say was the most play. Like I had a 344 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 4: great series that series, but that play, like I felt 345 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,959 Speaker 4: like I locked their whole offense down myself, and that 346 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 4: play was like a microcosmo. 347 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 2: That is what I always say. My dad and I 348 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 2: talk about this all the time where sometimes you'll I'll 349 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 2: watch your highlights and people don't understand that you stop 350 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 2: the whole team by yourself. Like that's a really hard 351 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 2: thing to understand because you're like, oh, You're like, oh no, 352 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 2: you know they just threw the wall out of bounce 353 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 2: and you're like no, no, no, no, no, dream on one hundred 354 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 2: percent force that, whether it was mental, whether it was physical, 355 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 2: Like if you really watch those highlights every single time 356 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 2: something happens, like I swear your name, your fingerprint was 357 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: on there, it is true. And I also think that 358 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 2: is the same with Gary Payton the second big shout out, 359 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 2: that's my guy. I love him so much. And I 360 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 2: just noticed this. I mean, every time the other team 361 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: messes up, I'm like, it was either Gary or Drey. 362 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 4: I definitely appreciate it. And and reality is it's like, 363 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 4: in order to do what we do on the defensive end, 364 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 4: I always say people people don't value or approach the 365 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 4: defensive end the same way that they do the offensive 366 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 4: and the same way. You have to have spacing on 367 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 4: on offense. You have to have one defense, like and 368 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 4: there's so many little nuances to where if one guy 369 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 4: isn't on the same page, it all falls down, you know. 370 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 4: And so I do understand the importance of like having 371 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 4: everybody on the same page and trying to lead that. 372 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 4: But as far as defense goes, like again, just like offense, 373 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 4: there's things that you want to get to as a defender, 374 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 4: there's things that you want to get to when you 375 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 4: understand what they're trying to get to. And I think 376 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 4: for me as as just always trying to be a 377 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 4: step ahead of the play, knowing like, oh man, they 378 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 4: want to get there with if I can get to 379 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 4: that spot before they get there, it throws off the 380 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 4: entire time and. 381 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 3: Of their play. 382 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 4: And that's and that's what I try to do and 383 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 4: and and focus on. And I try to cause the 384 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 4: same havoc for opposing offenses as great offensive players cause 385 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 4: for opposing defenses. 386 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: For sure. And on the topic of defense, as obviously 387 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: the defensive player of the year, can you give me 388 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: two defenders currently in the NBA that are just extremely underrated? 389 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 3: Well A Sloan knows alone. 390 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 4: And I feel like everyone always says I feel like 391 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 4: everyone always say this guy is underrated. And I think 392 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 4: the reason everyone always says he's underrated is like because 393 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 4: he doesn't have a Defensive Player of the Year. He 394 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 4: hasn't been on as many all defensive teams for as 395 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 4: good of a defender as he is. And it's Drew Holliday. 396 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 4: Drew Holliday is like I was watching the game the 397 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 4: other day, Al Horford went out, Porzingis was out, like 398 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 4: not playing at night. 399 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 3: Al Horford goes out the game and like. 400 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 4: Boston's matchup, Like you can tell in their shoot around 401 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 4: in their game that the matchup is now Drew Holliday 402 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 4: and Joe l Embiid And yeah, they're throwing the double team. 403 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 4: But if you know anything about defense, Drew has to 404 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 4: keep embating a position for or the double team to 405 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 4: be able to get there. 406 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, Drew is outsized by Joe. 407 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 4: L and b by at least one hundred pounds, at 408 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 4: least at least six inches, probably more. And he's just 409 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 4: holding his. 410 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 2: Own Me and Drew and absolutely facts. 411 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 4: And by the way, one of the like Joel is 412 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 4: an incredible player, like MVP. One of the most impressive 413 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 4: things about that is Joel's a dog. Joel will embarrass 414 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 4: you if he can. He will go right at you him. 415 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 4: It wasn't like he saw Drew and it was like 416 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 4: I smell blood, And I think that is one of 417 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 4: the most incredible things, Like when it's no better feeling 418 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 4: as a defender, when you're like, say, I'm running up 419 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 4: and my guy's going to set a screen and the 420 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 4: guards like, nah, man, you get out of here, bring 421 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 4: that guy up, And as a defender, you just feel 422 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 4: accomplished because it's like, oh, he don't even want to 423 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 4: face me right now. And so I think Drew is 424 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 4: one and the second one is an underrated defender. I 425 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 4: think the second one is Anthony Davis. 426 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 2: Really okay. Also for the real ones out there also 427 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: a slow nose alum to like a certain extent. I 428 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: did like a cute little interview with him, but it 429 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 2: was like a minute but with the help of Dre, 430 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 2: I know Adie will be sitting in that chair one. 431 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 4: Day, absolutely. But ad Ad is a is. Ad can 432 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 4: switch onto a guard and keep a guard in front 433 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 4: of him if he needs to. He can play in 434 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 4: the drop and he's one of the most devastating players 435 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 4: playing in a. 436 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 3: Guarden, picking and rolling and drop. 437 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 4: He's a versative defender, Like you can put ad in helpside, 438 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 4: and you put him in help side and he'll cover 439 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 4: the whole week side up. You put him in the action, 440 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 4: he can guard the action, no problem. So uh very 441 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 4: My second one would be Anthony. 442 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 2: Davis crazy that they were teammates, you know, like that 443 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 2: New Orleans team. 444 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 3: Is special, we beat them. 445 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you're more special. So one clip of 446 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 2: mine that went viral on TikTok was I was talking 447 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 2: to Drew and I asked him, I said, you know, 448 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 2: I also agree that I think Drew's a very underrated defender. 449 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 2: And I said, it's such a talented defender yourself. Who's 450 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: someone that you've guarded that probably the outside world doesn't 451 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 2: realize how difficult it is to guard them. And he said. 452 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 2: Bobby Portois and all these people were like, why didn't 453 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 2: you say Steph Curry? And we were like, the question 454 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 2: is underrated, Like people need to listen to the context. 455 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 2: And I think, like you were saying earlier, like there's 456 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 2: four hundred and thirty guys plus in the NBA, Like 457 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 2: I mean, every kid has played basketball at one point 458 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 2: in their life, and four hundred and thirty around that 459 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 2: number guys make it to the league. These guys are special, 460 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 2: even if they're not Steph Curry. They could drop sixty 461 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 2: on anyone's head that's not in the league, you know, 462 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 2: and like, who's a guy like that to you that 463 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 2: you're like, people don't understand, but he's good. 464 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 3: Every guy in the NBA. 465 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 2: Okay, every guy. 466 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 4: Though, I always tell like, you know, people see guys 467 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 4: in the NBA and they're like, oh man, that guy 468 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 4: suck and to your points, like that guy that you 469 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,479 Speaker 4: thinks up will destroy you so badly, Like you have 470 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 4: to like you just there's a certain level of player 471 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 4: that you have to be the player. Then yeah, Now, 472 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 4: don't get me wrong. I know you probably saw like 473 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 4: pg's podcast where PG and Tomorrow was talking about guys 474 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 4: in the NBA that suck. Now that's to an NBA level, 475 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 4: Like there are some guys in the NBA that you 476 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 4: don't quite feel should be here. But that doesn't mean 477 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 4: Joe Bloke can just beat them at basketball, Like, no, 478 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 4: they'll destroy Joe Blow. However, there's I always say that 479 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 4: there's guys like everyone has a guy or two in 480 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 4: the league where when you play that guy, he causes 481 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 4: you fits like nobody tomorrow, but it's the guy that 482 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 4: no one would expect, Like I have a couple of 483 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,360 Speaker 4: people and it just shows you how good they actually are. 484 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 3: One was TODJ. Gibson. For me, TODJ. Gibson. 485 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 4: I played against Todge Gibson as a freshman in college. 486 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 4: We played against him and Demargar Rose and they were 487 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 4: at USC ron Lewis. They had enough Daniel Hackett. We 488 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 4: played them in the second round, I think the first 489 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 4: or second round in the NCAA tournament in Minneapolis, and 490 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 4: Goran Suton got in foul trouble. Another one of our 491 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 4: big men got in foul trouble, and so I had 492 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 4: to go in the game and. 493 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 3: Guard Tashe Gibson. 494 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 4: If you remember anything about Todge Gibson at USC, he 495 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 4: was a problem. And I'm garden TODJ. Gibson, and I 496 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 4: go in and I do an incredible job. All our 497 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 4: upper classmen is in foul trouble and I. 498 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 3: Caused fits for TODSH Gibson. 499 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 4: And that was the end of Todge Gibson's career because 500 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 4: he didn't goes on and go to the NBA. 501 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 3: I stay, I finish out my next three years of college. 502 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 3: He goes on to the NBA. 503 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 4: When I get to the NBA, I now have to 504 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 4: guard Taje Gibson. At this time, Todash Gibson's in Chicago, 505 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 4: and I remember vividly my second year Jermaine O'Neill, one 506 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 4: of my OG's on the team, and we're playing Chicago 507 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,959 Speaker 4: and I'm trying to guard Tage Gibson and he hit 508 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 4: me with an up and under boom, step through bucket, 509 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 4: shimmy shake bucket, and the game goes on. And now 510 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 4: the only way I can get on the court my 511 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 4: first year and a half was to stop somebody. And 512 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 4: I am like, I can now get a stop on 513 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 4: this dude. So I tell Jermaine O'Neill it is one 514 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 4: of the very few times in my career, really, the 515 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 4: only one that I can really point to why I 516 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 4: actually got Yo. I need you to switch with me, 517 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 4: like I'm gonna take your match up. You gotta go go. 518 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 4: I cannot stop this guy. 519 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 3: One of them was. 520 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 4: Toash Gibson, and then the other guy that no one 521 00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 4: would ever guess, incredible player that give me fits. I 522 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 4: actually have the. 523 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 3: Honor of being a teammate with him. 524 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 2: Now, is it a slow nose alone? 525 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 3: No? 526 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 2: Oh, okay, but maybe he will be one day. Okay, 527 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 2: Dario sorrye wow, Okay, he is a silent killer. 528 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 4: He would give me fits no matter if he was 529 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 4: at Philly, Minnesota, Phoenix. 530 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 3: Okay. See, Dario Sarge every time I played against him 531 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 3: would give me a fit. 532 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 4: And it's like if you just go and you tell 533 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 4: someone like they're like, yo, who's the guy in the 534 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 4: league like that you struggle with the guard? No one 535 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 4: would ever guess that I'd be like Dodge Gibson and 536 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 4: Dario Sarge. 537 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 3: And that just goes to show you how good guys Arena. 538 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 2: Do you tell Dara. 539 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 3: That I have not but he'll figure it out now. 540 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 2: But then, like you know, that's a really I guarantee 541 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 2: that that shoots up his self esteem a little bit. 542 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 3: Darrio's my guy. I love Dario. 543 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 4: He's incredible teammates have but I don't like sharing my 544 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 4: weaknesses with people. 545 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'm really glad to see this is the thing, 546 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 2: Like I get to bring this out of you, you know 547 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: what I mean. It's good to talk about your emotions. 548 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 2: So m hmm. Okay, So Draymond, when I first met you, 549 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 2: you talk to me a lot about positivity and how 550 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 2: the idea of what I do that differentiates me from 551 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 2: other people and you as well. Is the idea of 552 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 2: speaking positively because a lot of what the NBA media 553 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: is is it's asking people, Oh, you know, who's a 554 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 2: player in the league that annoys you? 555 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 4: Right? 556 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 2: And like, what's the purpose of that question? 557 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 3: Right? 558 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 2: Like, yes, you can probably get a lot of likes 559 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 2: on that, but it's not I mean, at the end 560 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 2: of the day, who has that helped? 561 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 4: You? Know? 562 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 3: That? 563 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 2: That hasn't improved anyone's life really, And so I decided 564 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 2: that I wanted to, you know, create a segment where 565 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 2: instead of that, I basically asked those questions in just 566 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 2: a way, nicer way, okay, and instead of the player 567 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 2: in the league who annoys you the most? Who is 568 00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 2: your favorite player? You know? Stuff like that. So I 569 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,400 Speaker 2: want to I want to talk about that a little 570 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 2: bit with you, and I want to start off talking 571 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 2: about Clay and Seth the Splash bros. I mean, you 572 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 2: guys have been through thick and thin together and the 573 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 2: world knows how incredible they are. But is there something 574 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: specific that we don't see behind the scenes that makes 575 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 2: both of them so uniquely special? 576 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 4: I think, I think something that people don't get to 577 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 4: see with Stephan Clay is how competitive they are. You know, 578 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 4: you don't win at the rate that we've won with 579 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 4: guys that aren't competitive. And you know, because they shoot 580 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 4: the ball the way they shoot the ball, because they 581 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 4: play with the flash that they play with. I've seen 582 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 4: so many teams and guys make the mistake of thinking, Oh, 583 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 4: I'll just bully him, I'll just get physical with him, 584 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 4: and like. 585 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 3: It'll be no problem. 586 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 4: And they run up against those guys and they quickly realize, like, ah, 587 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 4: what that. 588 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 3: Approach doesn't necessarily work to me? 589 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 4: The most like two of the greatest shooters ever that 590 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 4: we've ever seen. In my book, the two greatest shooters 591 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 4: we've ever seen, their number one attribute, their number one 592 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 4: skill is not their shooting. Their number one skill is 593 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 4: their competitive nature. Wow, And that's something that doesn't get 594 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 4: any credit. No one ever says. But Klay Thompson is 595 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 4: one of the fiercest competitors I've ever seen. No one 596 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 4: ever says Steph Curry is one of the most competitive 597 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 4: guys I've ever seen. Did you see him in this moment? 598 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 4: Did you see how he stood up in that moment? 599 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 4: No one ever talks about that because the shots so beautiful. Yeah, 600 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 4: but that's the reason behind the four championships. It is 601 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 4: not the shot. 602 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 603 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 2: I love that. And now that we're moving on from 604 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: Stephan Clay, you know, they were people that people understand 605 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 2: why they're amazing. But can you tell us something incredible 606 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 2: about a young Warrior that you've been able to play 607 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 2: with in the past few years, maybe instead of sharing 608 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 2: something new like you shared Stephen Clay, something maybe that 609 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 2: we just haven't been able to see yet, but that 610 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 2: we will see about a young guy and the Warriors. 611 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 3: Wow, that's interesting. 612 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 4: Is I think we've had quite a few young guys 613 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 4: over the last few years, but I can speak about 614 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 4: the ones that that we currently have. I think when 615 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 4: I look at the Warriors, the Warriors are in good hands. 616 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 4: When you look at young guys like BP, Brandon Potjemski, 617 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 4: Trace Jackson Davis, like those are guys that are coming 618 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 4: to the NBA right now and they're ready to play 619 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 4: right now. 620 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 3: Yes, And. 621 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 4: That's how we were coming in to them. Like when 622 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,959 Speaker 4: we came in, we were ready to play. It wasn't like, oh, 623 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 4: you need two years, you need three years to try 624 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 4: to figure like yeah, you still had to figure things 625 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 4: out for sure for the next two three years, but 626 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 4: you can put us in the game right away and 627 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 4: we be just fine. And those are the rookies that 628 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 4: we have right now, and I think they are incredible. 629 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 4: The energy that they bring to the team absolutely amazing. 630 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 4: And I think, like BP, that kid is like a gamer. 631 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 4: You just put him in the game. He figured out. 632 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 4: And by the way, we realize that playing this summer 633 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 4: and like we're playing pickup and we're getting together for 634 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 4: like we got together for a little team mini camera 635 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 4: and you're like, yo, no. 636 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 3: This dude is like he's gonna play. And so I 637 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 3: can appreciate. 638 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 4: Those guys, and I don't think the world has gotten 639 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 4: a chance to really see how good those young guys 640 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 4: are and what they will be for this organization. You 641 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 4: got young guys like Jonathan Kaminga and Moses Moody. Kaminga 642 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 4: has no clue how good he is, yeah, And I 643 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 4: think that's so incredible because he believes he's good. It's 644 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 4: like a weird thing. He doesn't have a clue of 645 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 4: how good he is. But he actually he's a confident kid, 646 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 4: so he believes he's good. 647 00:31:59,280 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 3: Right. 648 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 4: It's not even that he doesn't have the right level 649 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 4: of confidence because he is as confident as they come. Ok, 650 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: but he doesn't know how good he is yet, because 651 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 4: he's still figuring it out right, Like he's still figuring 652 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 4: out Oh man, I got this. 653 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 3: Smaller guy on me. 654 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 4: I don't need to speed up and go faster him. 655 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 4: I need to slow down and just get him to 656 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 4: the spot I want to get to. Now, I can 657 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 4: just raise up over and make the game simple, you know, 658 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 4: more easy for myself. And so when I say Kaminga 659 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 4: doesn't like he has the confidence, but he doesn't know 660 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 4: how good he is, it's just because he hasn't even 661 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 4: really tapped into yet all of the things that he's 662 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 4: capable of tapping into. That for someone who's been in 663 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 4: for twelve years, I see, Oh, he's going to get 664 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 4: to this and he'll figure that out. 665 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 3: The game will slow down for him in this area. 666 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 4: He'll do that. And absolutely special. Moses the most professional 667 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 4: guy I've ever been around. Next to Kavon Looney. When 668 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 4: you're talking about a young guy who coming in and 669 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 4: just gets it, gets how to work, gets how to 670 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 4: how to carry themselves. Moses is one of those special 671 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 4: people that like you look back into an organization thirteen 672 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 4: years from now, and you're like, man, he's just been 673 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 4: there the entire time, and that's because they want to 674 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 4: have him around, like he's great for your team. And 675 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 4: then obviously none of that matters if you can't play. 676 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 4: And he continues to grow as a player, shooting, competing 677 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 4: one of the best winging offensive rebounders in the NBA. 678 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 2: With as much knowledge and experience that you have in 679 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 2: this league, do you feel responsibility to take a guy 680 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,239 Speaker 2: like Jonathan Kaminga under your wing and you're like, I 681 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 2: just know he can be that much better? Do you 682 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 2: feel that responsibility? Were like, I want to let him 683 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 2: know this. I want to help him become that good. 684 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 4: That's something that I rode that I try to really 685 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 4: take on this mentoring young guys. I'll never forget my 686 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 4: rookie year. One of our assistant coaches, his name is 687 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 4: Pete Myers. Pete told me two things that will always 688 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 4: I would always keep with me forever. 689 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 3: He said. 690 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 4: Number one, Draymond, you get paid. If you ever fortunate 691 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 4: enough to get paid in this league, you get paid 692 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 4: for the next young guy to get paid. 693 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 3: So oftentimes you see like. 694 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 4: Guys like, oh man, that guy got this, I need 695 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 4: to do that or like, and it's like, no, actually, like, 696 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 4: if you think about the lifespan of the league, when 697 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 4: one gets paid, it only makes it better for the 698 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 4: next person, you know. And so he told me that, 699 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 4: and then he also would say to me, Draymond, you 700 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 4: owe it to the game to lead a game in 701 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 4: a better place than it was when you found it. 702 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 4: And what that meant to me. The only way to 703 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 4: do that is to give the game back to the 704 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 4: younger guys so that they can then take that to 705 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 4: another level and give it to the next young guy. 706 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 4: And that's how we keep this thing going. That's how 707 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 4: we keep it growing, that's how we continue to feed 708 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 4: our families better than any of us could ever imagine 709 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 4: we would be able to do playing the game with basketball. 710 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 4: And so I think those are a couple of principles 711 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 4: that I stand by. And what's a absolute byproduct of 712 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 4: that is mentoring young guys because I think it's important 713 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 4: to lead a game in a better space than it. 714 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 2: Was when I got for sure. And speaking of that 715 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,839 Speaker 2: mentorship process, what I've loved to see and what's been 716 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 2: so fun for me is to follow accounts like sports Center, 717 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 2: next right, and to see the mini Lebron's right, and 718 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 2: the many Carlos Boozers, and the many Gilbert Arenas's and 719 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 2: all these guys where their sons are. You know, many 720 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 2: Carmelo Anthony's and like their sons are continuing to like 721 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 2: build on their legacy. And obviously everyone knows you have 722 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 2: a son. He's so adorable. But do you also I know, 723 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 2: like you said, you have feel responsibility to guide the 724 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,240 Speaker 2: guys in the league, But have you ever found yourself 725 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 2: talking to some players sons about what they can do 726 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 2: to really make it to the next level. 727 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 4: I wouldn't necessarily say talking to other guys' sons about 728 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 4: making it to the next you know they have that. 729 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 4: I think one thing that I do get a lot 730 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 4: of pleasure out of is just talking to kids in 731 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 4: general about making it to the next level. But I think, 732 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,279 Speaker 4: you know, it's it's it's kind of a phenomenon in 733 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 4: the NBA of seeing NBA players children coming to the 734 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 4: NBA and having success. But when when when I when 735 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 4: I look at that phenomenon that's largely driven by the 736 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 4: success of Stephan Clay because you see these these guys 737 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 4: at a young age with fathers, their their sons of 738 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 4: NBA players and you actually see them become superstars. See, 739 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 4: those are one of the few that you know, you've 740 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 4: seen guys come into the NBA. 741 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 2: Are a team literally full of Trace Jackson Davis's dad 742 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 2: played in the league, Andrew Wiggins. Obviously Stephan Clay is 743 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 2: there of course. 744 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 4: Champion and the Superstars as well. But I think like that, 745 00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 4: like that's largely driven by a success of Stephan Clay 746 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 4: because it's like, oh, these guys dads were in the 747 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 4: NBA and you see the growth and like the progress 748 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,439 Speaker 4: of those guys and so I think, you know, they 749 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 4: don't get enough credit for that, but that's that's a 750 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 4: check mark on your list, as is an All Star parents, 751 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 4: like cause it's changing NBA and now we're starting to 752 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 4: see more and more kids coming to the NBA. And 753 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 4: like for me, like you mentioned DJ, Like I would 754 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 4: love to see DJ playing the NBA. I think that's dope, 755 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 4: But I'm not I'm not the parent who's gonna push him, Like, Yo, 756 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 4: I want you to play basketball. I think you should 757 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 4: like if he wants to play basketball on Marlon right, 758 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 4: and I'm Marlin gonna help you on Marlin helping GUIDs you. 759 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 4: But I don't want I never want my son to think, Man, 760 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 4: my dad played basketball. 761 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 3: I gotta play basketball. I don't like that. 762 00:37:52,200 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 2: I like that. I like that view as we know, 763 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 2: Like the name of this show is Sloan Knows, right, 764 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 2: So Sloan knows your game and I do, Dre.

So I do know 770 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 2: your game, but what I want to know is do 771 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 2: you So I'm gonna ask you some trivia about yourself 772 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 2: and I'd like, I'd like to know what you have 773 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 2: to say about it. I know that I just interviewed 774 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 2: DeAndre Jordan and he actually beat Chris Paul in this 775 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 2: game and texted him about it, and I think like 776 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 2: it got a little chippy, like everyone was very like, 777 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 2: so this is a thing, Like people are very interested 778 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 2: in this.
