0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:17.919
<v Speaker 2>back to this Lebron and Pat McAfee. Like you said,

0:00:17.960 --> 0:00:20.680
<v Speaker 2>o Joe, we're not used to seeing Lebron James sit

0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:22.759
<v Speaker 2>down for an extended period of time.

0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 1>Normally, like when.

0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:26.599
<v Speaker 2>He's in the finals or he's in the playoffs, he

0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:29.760
<v Speaker 2>would sit down. That's like five that's like ten minutes.

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:34.240
<v Speaker 3>And it's always it's always basketball related to he's literally

0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:39.240
<v Speaker 3>talking about other stuff going on in life. He's being vulnerable,

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:43.320
<v Speaker 3>letting people in something he's never never ever done before.

0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:47.600
<v Speaker 3>Players like that of his magnitude, of his status, that

0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:50.000
<v Speaker 3>allows the world in the public to see what he

0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:52.839
<v Speaker 3>wants you to to actually sit down for a change.

0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:56.400
<v Speaker 3>I guarantee you if they were to do the numbers

0:00:56.640 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 3>on how many people watch that Pat McAfee show, I

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 3>bet it's astronomical crazy because it's something he's never.

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:08.479
<v Speaker 2>Done right, and uh, you know, and and to see

0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:10.199
<v Speaker 2>like you said, to see him, but that just lets

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 2>you know that he and for me looking at him

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 2>considering that he had ever ever done anything like this before,

0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:22.200
<v Speaker 2>to think about how many people have criticized him. Yeah,

0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 2>and he's never ever done it before. So that lets

0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 2>you know he had gotten to a place that he's like,

0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I've had it up to hear.

0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:33.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I don't know if he knew.

0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he knew Steven A was gonna come

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:38.040
<v Speaker 2>to the game, but he had it in his mind

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>if he ever saw Stephen A, he was gonna step

0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 2>to it.

0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:44.000
<v Speaker 4>But he got stephen a number, He get a texta

0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 4>call him. If there was an issue, you get a

0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:51.840
<v Speaker 4>texta call him. They communicate with each other, obviously they

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:54.840
<v Speaker 4>have some some some some sort of relationship.

0:01:55.280 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 1>No they don't. You don't think so? No, Okay, well

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:12.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm bad. No, But like you said, I mean you

0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:15.640
<v Speaker 1>mean no, they don't. Now as opposed to no, I don't.

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Think they've ever had a relationship where they pick up

0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 2>the phone and they talk to each other like that.

0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they've ever had that type of relationship.

0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Do I think they've been cordial to each other. I

0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>remember I think I saw something on an old clip

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:30.360
<v Speaker 2>maybe with YouTube, where Stephen they actually sat down to

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:32.760
<v Speaker 2>the interview Lebron. But I don't think they're in a

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:34.919
<v Speaker 2>situation where they like picked up the phone.

0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:37.680
<v Speaker 1>They have each other, they can call each other like that.

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't.

0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if any Lebron is maybe teammates. It

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 2>could I could be wrong, I could be wrong. I

0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 2>could be totally wrong. But I don't know if Lebron

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 2>has his number or he has Lebron's number. Lebron is,

0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:55.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, very very very Lebron rocked with who.

0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:55.720
<v Speaker 1>He rocked with.

0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 2>And I think once you get to this level, if

0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:01.079
<v Speaker 2>you had, if you have a developed a friend by now,

0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:04.600
<v Speaker 2>Lebron James ain't letting you in his circle. It's really

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:07.959
<v Speaker 2>that simple. So he got his friends. You know, Rich

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:11.040
<v Speaker 2>is his agent, Maverick is his steps the chief of staff.

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Mav is one of his business partners. I'm trying to

0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:19.040
<v Speaker 2>think who else he wrought Chris Paul. He's very close

0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 2>to Chris Paul. I think he's the grand grand godfather

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.239
<v Speaker 2>to run a CP three then I think if vice

0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 2>verds are the same thing with CP. But other than that,

0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Lebron has a whole, a whole lot.

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Of what we call.

0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:34.960
<v Speaker 2>I look at those guys like I look at Bucket,

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 2>like I look at Bucket and Burns. He ain't got

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 2>a whole lot of Bucket and Burns in his life.

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.480
<v Speaker 2>You ain't got a whole lot of you know, TJ,

0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 2>your boy, you rock with TJ t O, you ain't

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>got a whole lot of them. Yeah, And I look

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.200
<v Speaker 2>at Lebron, and I think Lebron is kind of like that.

0:03:51.520 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 2>But hopefully, hopefully, hopefully everybody's made their point. Yeah, Lebron

0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.720
<v Speaker 2>was upset what he said, Stephen. They said that what

0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:08.880
<v Speaker 2>I was trying to say. Sometimes things get lost in translation.

0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:11.120
<v Speaker 2>It is what it is. But at the end of the.

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Day, I think we've got a We've got a lot

0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:15.120
<v Speaker 1>of juice.

0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 2>I think both have kind of squeezed that orange jojo Yeah,

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 2>and got a lot of juice out of it.

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 1>And then Lebron took aim at Wendy.

0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Brian Windhorse said, this guy says he's my best effing friend.

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 1>These guys are just weird.

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:33.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if Wendy's ever said I think Wendy

0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:34.880
<v Speaker 2>went to the same school he went to Ojo.

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:37.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think when I've never heard and I could

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:38.240
<v Speaker 1>be wrong. Guys.

0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Hell, I was on I was on Undisputed for seven years.

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 2>I didn't hear everything Wendy said. As a matter of fact,

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 2>I didn't watch anything on anywhere. All I watched was

0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 2>the games that were on his find. I don't watch

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.680
<v Speaker 2>any of the debate shows. I don't watch any of

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:53.560
<v Speaker 2>the shows.

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 1>That do what I do.

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.400
<v Speaker 2>And I'm gonna be talking about something because I don't

0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 2>want what they say to creep in what I'm going

0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:01.520
<v Speaker 2>to say, so I don't watch. So Wendy Chad if

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.159
<v Speaker 2>he said that he was Lebron's best friend, I apologize,

0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 2>but I don't recall, and if I misspeak, I apologize

0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:13.640
<v Speaker 2>to you guys. But I don't believe Wendy has said

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.839
<v Speaker 2>that he's Lebron's best friend. I think because he's covered

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 2>Lebron for so long, and I think they went to

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 2>the same school, Saint Visus, Saint Mary.

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 1>He says.

0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:26.239
<v Speaker 2>I think he said I might probably know him better

0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:27.119
<v Speaker 2>than anyone else.

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:29.840
<v Speaker 1>But I don't get why. I mean, he would say

0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:30.960
<v Speaker 1>that about Wendy.

0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:33.560
<v Speaker 5>Man, You never know.

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 3>I think I think, like like I said, Lebron is

0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:39.920
<v Speaker 3>probably Lebron is fed up. He's he's he's on I'm

0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 3>not saying he's on the way out the door, but

0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 3>he's on the tail end of everything. And now he's

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 3>opening up a little bit more, doing things out of

0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 3>capsule that he normally wouldn't do, which is giving the

0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:52.560
<v Speaker 3>people what they want, letting us in, you know, giving

0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 3>giving us a glimpse of what's inside the world and

0:05:56.360 --> 0:06:01.160
<v Speaker 3>mind of Lebron King James and I enjoy I enjoyed it.

0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:03.640
<v Speaker 3>I hope he does more of it. I hope other

0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:07.600
<v Speaker 3>athletes do more of it. You know what I wish Lebron.

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:10.800
<v Speaker 3>I wish Lebron was like Jeff t have you ever heard?

0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:11.839
<v Speaker 3>Have you ever sat and listen?

0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:12.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Lebron would it would be It would be an

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:20.360
<v Speaker 3>honor for him to take a page out of jeff

0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.360
<v Speaker 3>Te's book and be that bone over and open and

0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:25.880
<v Speaker 3>just just just give it, just give it to stories.

0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:32.800
<v Speaker 1>I would love that. Yeah. Lebron talked about his relationship

0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 1>with MJ.

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.040
<v Speaker 2>While he still has immense respect for Jordan, the pair

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:38.679
<v Speaker 2>don't talk much these days. I think that would change

0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:41.920
<v Speaker 2>when he retires from NBA, saying jordan intense competitive spirit

0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 2>is why the two don't talk much. Now we all

0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:47.040
<v Speaker 2>know MJ, even if you don't know him personally. He's

0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:50.159
<v Speaker 2>one of the most ruthless competitors there is. And until

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:51.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm done and he doesn't have to look at me

0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:53.359
<v Speaker 2>run up and down that court where in the twenty

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:56.039
<v Speaker 2>three every time my name is mentioned, it is mentioned

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:57.920
<v Speaker 2>with his He's like, I don't want to and talk

0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 2>to you, do you, Griocho.

0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's dope, that's dope list and that's a competitor.

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:09.160
<v Speaker 3>The competitor nature in MJ. I think it's understandable, especially

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.560
<v Speaker 3>when it comes to him. I think he's he's not

0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.960
<v Speaker 3>closed off. But MJ and Kobe are like in a sense.

0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 3>MJ and Kobe are like in a sense. I think

0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.920
<v Speaker 3>their relationship will be much better and a lot closer

0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:26.800
<v Speaker 3>once Lebron is done playing. Yeah, they go play all together,

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 3>go play golf together, smoke the cards, you know, have

0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 3>a little have a little one, whatever it is that

0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 3>they do. But right now, while Lebron is actively playing,

0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:39.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't think him and the MJ just outside of

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 3>playing the game of basketball and being successful businessmen, there's

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:43.560
<v Speaker 3>not much for them to talk about right now.

0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:48.000
<v Speaker 2>The only friend I know, Jordan got it? Oak, I mean, okay,

0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:50.440
<v Speaker 2>this got now. I've been around Jordan a little bit

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 2>and he is ultra competitive. First thing, I mean, I will, Hey,

0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 2>you want to play cards? No, I don't want to

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:02.560
<v Speaker 2>play cards, because you know Jordan games. You gotta come

0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:04.680
<v Speaker 2>down at least a hundred one hundred, one hundred grand

0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:06.240
<v Speaker 2>two hundred grand in cash.

0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:07.760
<v Speaker 3>You don't play.

0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 2>I was like, no, I said, bro, you're nothing to

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:12.239
<v Speaker 2>have me. You're nothing to have me living on the streets.

0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:15.720
<v Speaker 2>I love my house. It ain't Jeorge, But I ain't

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 2>trying to keep up with you. No, No, I don't.

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:21.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't play no five fifty thousand dollars a hand.

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:26.600
<v Speaker 2>Hell no, no, bro, Bro, guess what as long as

0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 2>they make shoo with that logo, you got money coming in?

0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:31.400
<v Speaker 2>I ain't in the NFL no more. I ain't got

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.680
<v Speaker 2>no more money coming in. You know, I was thirty five.

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:37.200
<v Speaker 2>Then I can draw my pigeon at sixty two. So

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 2>I got five another five years before I could get

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 2>that o' chobren before I take a pill of it.

0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Hell now, I ain't gambling with you. As a matter

0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:46.559
<v Speaker 2>of fact, I'm mad you asked me that. You know,

0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:53.000
<v Speaker 2>damn well, I ain't got no money. No let I

0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 2>woulda let you and I'm let you, oh, because I

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:56.120
<v Speaker 2>think they play guts.

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.199
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of like bout ray. You ever played Boe Ray?

0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:03.360
<v Speaker 1>No sir, no sir sir or in between?

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:08.240
<v Speaker 2>But noah hell now he also U Lebron talked about

0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:10.199
<v Speaker 2>Jiannis on p MAC. You trying to tell me Johanna

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't be able to play in the NBA games in

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 2>the seventies. Johnis would have had two hundred and fifty

0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 2>points in the game in the seventies.

0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:19.720
<v Speaker 1>But let me ask you, see you transporting Janni's today

0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:21.600
<v Speaker 1>back then? Right?

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.880
<v Speaker 2>Do y'all really know what they did? Did y'all see

0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:28.480
<v Speaker 2>those fights? How many people got to go down the lane?

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:31.240
<v Speaker 2>See the stuff that they called They called a foul.

0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:34.120
<v Speaker 2>Now that wasn't no foul. There was nobody getting suspended

0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:36.240
<v Speaker 2>for slapping the issh out of somebody. There was no

0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:40.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there was no I mean waited. Karl alone

0:09:41.040 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 2>put forty four stitches in Isaiah head. You still think

0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.640
<v Speaker 2>you want to come down the lane? Do y'all remember

0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:51.680
<v Speaker 2>the finals in eighty four when Larry when Larry Birt,

0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:55.960
<v Speaker 2>when who was that Kevin McHale snatched Kurt Rambasan's Out

0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 2>the Sky and it wasn't a flavor.

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.840
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't nothing. If nobody it was suspended.

0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:03.800
<v Speaker 2>You can't take the modern play because, oh Joe, you're

0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.520
<v Speaker 2>talking about technology and you talk about the modernization.

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, if you transport Yannis today and put it back then,

0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:18.680
<v Speaker 1>looking at you as yea, what player couldn't what player?

0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:20.720
<v Speaker 2>If I take oh Joe, if I take you today,

0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:23.240
<v Speaker 2>you know what you know and the technology that you've

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:26.760
<v Speaker 2>been able to develop, and put you back in the seventies, man,

0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:27.760
<v Speaker 2>oh Joe was killing.

0:10:28.000 --> 0:10:33.199
<v Speaker 1>Yes, modernization, that's unfair.

0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think from it, just like it's unfair. One

0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:39.520
<v Speaker 2>more thing, oh Joe, Just like it's unfair to say, oh,

0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 2>man Jordan play today he averaged fifty. Let's how about this.

0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Let's leave everybody in the era in which they played

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:54.640
<v Speaker 2>Yanni's plays in the twenty tens and twenty twenties. Lebron

0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 2>has been in the two thousands to twenty tens and

0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:01.520
<v Speaker 2>now the twenty twenties. Let's leave everybody that because it's unfair.

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:06.679
<v Speaker 2>It's unfair. Look, I get it, and it's.

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:10.200
<v Speaker 1>A conversation, but come on, because we're robbed.

0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.360
<v Speaker 2>We're not being fair to the guys that played in

0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:17.920
<v Speaker 2>that era that was great, right, Because it's almost like

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 2>if you talk about these guys like you're trying to

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:22.520
<v Speaker 2>minimize them, and I get mad at the old guys

0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:27.280
<v Speaker 2>for trying to minimize the current players. Guys, you were great.

0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Nobody's trying to rob you of that. You were great.

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.480
<v Speaker 2>These guys are great, the guys in the sixties that

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:39.200
<v Speaker 2>were great, the guys in the seventies were great. Guys

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:44.200
<v Speaker 2>in the eighties, right, But it's unfair, oh Joe, I mean.

0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean, listen, I understand what Lebron was saying. Obviously

0:11:47.679 --> 0:11:50.959
<v Speaker 3>he is is exaggerated a little bit. But if you

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:54.040
<v Speaker 3>look at the players from back then, I know, just

0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:57.440
<v Speaker 3>being honest from a technical standpoint, from a physical standpoint,

0:11:57.520 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 3>I know what they did in between the lane and

0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:01.920
<v Speaker 3>being physical and you know, slapping and punching all that.

0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:05.400
<v Speaker 3>But if you're thinking about Giannis and Jannis today, it

0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:08.200
<v Speaker 3>oh my goodness that it's.

0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Called technology, Oh Joe, you got an opportunity to work

0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 2>on things guys didn't have. It didn't have modern medicine,

0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:16.720
<v Speaker 2>they didn't have technology. Think about when you rupture the achilles.

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.840
<v Speaker 2>You were done. You tore knee, you were done. You

0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.040
<v Speaker 2>had that big ass Balki knee brace that big done

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 2>joy on.

0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 1>It's different.

0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:24.280
<v Speaker 6>Now.

0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.160
<v Speaker 2>We got modern medicine, We know how to eat, we

0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.880
<v Speaker 2>know how trained. We have personal trainers and busio. Those

0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 2>guys in the sixties and seventies and eighties didn't have

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:37.800
<v Speaker 2>the money to have all of this stuff, Lebrun. When

0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 2>you're making fifty million dollars in basketball and another seventy

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.480
<v Speaker 2>five eighty million dollars off the court, you could have

0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:48.439
<v Speaker 2>a chef that prepares every meal to your specifications.

0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:49.720
<v Speaker 1>You can have a physio.

0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:52.200
<v Speaker 2>You can have a Mike Massias as lebron as an

0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:55.360
<v Speaker 2>excuse me as Jordan had Tim Grover, Tim and Tim

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:55.600
<v Speaker 2>and I.

0:12:55.640 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>We still we text a lot now, but it's different.

0:12:59.440 --> 0:12:59.839
<v Speaker 1>It's not.

0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:04.280
<v Speaker 2>That you try to compare this era to that era

0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:05.800
<v Speaker 2>or that era to this era.

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:09.120
<v Speaker 5>You're right, you're right.

0:13:09.840 --> 0:13:12.360
<v Speaker 2>The Cavaliers blow out The Lakers won thirty four to

0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.520
<v Speaker 2>one ten and Bronnie James scored his first NBA point

0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 2>and his dad watches from the bench. Jared Allen scored

0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:23.080
<v Speaker 2>twenty points, had seventeen rebounds, Evan Mobley had five points

0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:26.560
<v Speaker 2>and Donovan Mitchell had twenty four points. The Lakers were

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.160
<v Speaker 2>led by Lebron James, who played only twenty nine minutes

0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 2>because the game got out of hand. Anthony Davis continued

0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:35.319
<v Speaker 2>his great play, having twenty two points and thirteen rebounds.

0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:37.760
<v Speaker 2>The Lakers were unable to cut the Cleveland lead after

0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:40.560
<v Speaker 2>falling behind by twenty three in the first half. In

0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:43.680
<v Speaker 2>the final minutes, Bronnie grew up in in this arena.

0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:45.959
<v Speaker 2>He made a fourteen foot jumper with two minutes and

0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:48.720
<v Speaker 2>three seconds to play for his first NBA points.

0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:51.079
<v Speaker 1>He's only up a little lover forty thousand from catching

0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:53.600
<v Speaker 1>his dad swish.

0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:56.880
<v Speaker 2>When you watch this game and considering how well the

0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:59.840
<v Speaker 2>Lakers had played, even though they lost the other night

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.559
<v Speaker 2>it was last night. I think last night they lost

0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:05.560
<v Speaker 2>by four to Phoenix, but they won the previous three.

0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:08.320
<v Speaker 2>When you look at them, the first three games, last

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:11.760
<v Speaker 2>night and tonight, what didn't you like about what you

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:13.040
<v Speaker 2>saw from the Lakers?

0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:16.360
<v Speaker 5>I mean, for me, it's it's it's a lot about

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:17.120
<v Speaker 5>Bob movement.

0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:18.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh, you know.

0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:21.120
<v Speaker 5>For one, I mean, bron is what.

0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Forty you're about to be forty? Yeah, about to.

0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:28.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:29.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 5>So for me, it's like, at the end of the day,

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 5>like seeing him lead the charge is concerning and it's

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:40.520
<v Speaker 5>alarming because obviously, you know, you need a you need

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:42.960
<v Speaker 5>an extra guy, you need an extra guy or two.

0:14:44.480 --> 0:14:48.320
<v Speaker 5>But to be doing it that his age is, it's incredible.

0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:50.680
<v Speaker 5>But at the same time, he shouldn't have to be

0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.760
<v Speaker 5>carrying a load like that. And for me, what's alarming

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:56.040
<v Speaker 5>that that is when you look at the guys who've

0:14:56.040 --> 0:14:59.120
<v Speaker 5>been working out all season long, off season long, been

0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:01.680
<v Speaker 5>in the gym, like this is the time, especially earlier

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.120
<v Speaker 5>on in the season, this is the time where you

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:08.120
<v Speaker 5>you know, you start displaying so further on down the line,

0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:10.200
<v Speaker 5>down the road, middle of the year, end of the year,

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:12.360
<v Speaker 5>they're like, Okay, we can trust this guy. This is

0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.320
<v Speaker 5>this is where he's been, you know, this is where

0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:18.479
<v Speaker 5>he's been excelling. For me, being being in those situations,

0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:22.000
<v Speaker 5>I don't see that from their role players, the guys

0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.240
<v Speaker 5>they brought back, like where are you getting better at?

0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 5>Like what part of their game are you evolving to

0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:30.080
<v Speaker 5>where Okay, we was lacking this part this year last year.

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.040
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna be a knockdown shooter. I'm gonna be a

0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:34.440
<v Speaker 5>lockdown defender. I'm gonna be somebody who getting into pick

0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:37.400
<v Speaker 5>and roll and you know it makes place. I don't

0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:40.640
<v Speaker 5>see that from from this team so far. So that

0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:43.760
<v Speaker 5>for me, that's the most alarming part about it. But

0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:44.760
<v Speaker 5>it is still early.

0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:49.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I watching them into the turnovers. When you look

0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:52.040
<v Speaker 2>at it, Ad had the most shot He had nineteen.

0:15:52.080 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 2>He was nine of seventeen. Ruey was four to six,

0:15:54.840 --> 0:15:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Lebron was nine a thirteen, d Lo was too of seven,

0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:00.840
<v Speaker 2>and Austin Reeve was to a six. Now that's two

0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:02.960
<v Speaker 2>or six and two or seven. It's not great percentage.

0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.920
<v Speaker 2>But they only got six shots swish they only got

0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:09.640
<v Speaker 2>seven shots. Ad only had nineteen because you had twenty turnovers.

0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:12.160
<v Speaker 2>So now you don't even give yourself an opportunity to

0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:14.440
<v Speaker 2>get into an offense. You don't even give yourself an

0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.200
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to knock down shots to get into the pick

0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 2>and roll or you know what I'm saying, to run

0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 2>the driven drive, to drive a dribble hand off. So

0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:24.840
<v Speaker 2>when you turn the ball over, you give them easy

0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:28.600
<v Speaker 2>buckets on the other end. And so now they shooting

0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:30.880
<v Speaker 2>fifty eight percent from the floor, they shoot forty two

0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:31.680
<v Speaker 2>percent from the three.

0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, if you allow team to.

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Shoot fifty eight percent from the floor, swish you know this,

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:37.840
<v Speaker 2>and you allowed team to shoot forty two percent from

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:39.360
<v Speaker 2>the three, you losing that game?

0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:41.240
<v Speaker 1>Lot.

0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:43.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I about to say, you're gonna get smoked. You

0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:45.440
<v Speaker 5>ain't gonna lose, you gonna get It's gonna be embarrassing.

0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Y'all know who it is. It's your favorite. I've teamed

0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:52.320
<v Speaker 2>up with Whatnot. This Friday, November first, at seven pm Pacific,

0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:55.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm joining the Cool Kicks gang here in Las Vegas.

0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:58.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm auctioning off three hundred pairs of the sneakers from

0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:01.760
<v Speaker 2>my personal collection, and it's going into a very worthy cause,

0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.960
<v Speaker 2>the Savannah State Scholarship Fun. I'm gonna start a scholarship

0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:07.000
<v Speaker 2>fun because I thought it was appropriate for me to

0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:09.640
<v Speaker 2>give back. I want to donate to my school that's

0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:12.400
<v Speaker 2>done so much for me. So this Friday, November first,

0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:15.639
<v Speaker 2>at seven pm Pacific, Whatnot, in our teaming up, we're

0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:18.439
<v Speaker 2>gonna have an option three hundred pairs of sneakers my

0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:22.040
<v Speaker 2>personal collection. Some of these sneaks guys I didn't even

0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:24.719
<v Speaker 2>know I had. But you get the benefit from it.

0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:28.359
<v Speaker 2>Your favorite up, not for me.

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:31.800
<v Speaker 5>It's like you know, obviously a guy like Austin Reez

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:35.200
<v Speaker 5>some nights you're gonna have off nights and stuff like that,

0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:37.400
<v Speaker 5>But you got to figure out a way for him

0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:40.280
<v Speaker 5>to get more than six to eight shots. Like if

0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:42.439
<v Speaker 5>he's going to be that one of those, the third

0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:45.359
<v Speaker 5>guy to Brown the eighty, he's got to figure out

0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:48.399
<v Speaker 5>a way to get eight more at least ten to

0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:52.040
<v Speaker 5>twelve shots. D'Angelo Russell to ten to twelve shots. I

0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:55.400
<v Speaker 5>mean twenty four minutes five assists at the point guard

0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:58.399
<v Speaker 5>with the players you're playing. With no disrespect to d LO,

0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.160
<v Speaker 5>but I'm gonna need more out of that. And on

0:18:01.160 --> 0:18:02.960
<v Speaker 5>the top of the on top of that, you're not

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:07.520
<v Speaker 5>you're not my primary defender on the ball, so you

0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:10.600
<v Speaker 5>got to give me something. So for me, it's a

0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:12.480
<v Speaker 5>lot of that. And on top of that, and when

0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.359
<v Speaker 5>I sit here and look at it, they had thirty

0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:16.400
<v Speaker 5>seven assists to their twenty one.

0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 1>You ain't gonna win many games.

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:20.040
<v Speaker 3>Like you know what, I got a question. You talk

0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:22.000
<v Speaker 3>about some of the players that needs to take more shots.

0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:24.000
<v Speaker 3>How do you know when it's okay to take those shots?

0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:25.960
<v Speaker 3>Do you have the green light from the head coach?

0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:27.600
<v Speaker 3>You have the green light from the other players to

0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:32.000
<v Speaker 3>override passing the ball and be have the willingness to shoot.

0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:34.600
<v Speaker 1>How much he make?

0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:38.800
<v Speaker 2>How helo bake about delo make up bout what about

0:18:38.800 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 2>seventeen to twenty one off?

0:18:41.520 --> 0:18:42.680
<v Speaker 5>Something about shots?

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:44.480
<v Speaker 1>You're talking about? Let it go?

0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:49.840
<v Speaker 3>So you see that wheel based on your salary.

0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:49.960
<v Speaker 1>One hundred percent?

0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:50.880
<v Speaker 5>What they're gonna.

0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Say, okay, okay, okio okyo? What they gonna say?

0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 5>Hey, look, when they ain't throw you the ball you

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:58.400
<v Speaker 5>were it was by yourself. It's just man on man

0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:00.639
<v Speaker 5>what you was looking. Hey, bro, ain't no man over

0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:02.880
<v Speaker 5>the top. Ain't nobody over the top. Give me the back.

0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:06.320
<v Speaker 5>This is the prime time. So for me, when I

0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:08.359
<v Speaker 5>look at it honestly, like when I look at guys

0:19:08.359 --> 0:19:10.440
<v Speaker 5>like d Lo Reeves and you going in that third

0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:15.560
<v Speaker 5>fourth option, Ruy Ruy, I mean Ruy for sure, I

0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:19.959
<v Speaker 5>think Ruiy's a lot. He's underrated for me because what

0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:24.440
<v Speaker 5>he does is disguised by how good Lebron is. Because

0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:27.359
<v Speaker 5>when you look at his size, he can guard all positions,

0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:29.320
<v Speaker 5>he can shoot the ball, he can put the ball

0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:33.000
<v Speaker 5>on the floor, creator play, he can defend, obviously rebound

0:19:33.160 --> 0:19:36.160
<v Speaker 5>like he's he's he's in a tough situation because he's

0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.080
<v Speaker 5>playing with a guy like Lebron. So that's the same thing,

0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:41.560
<v Speaker 5>like kind of like Jeff Green fell in that error

0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:44.000
<v Speaker 5>with us when he was a Cleveland. He's in the

0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 5>same similar situation. So Lebron is gonna they're gonna cater

0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:50.080
<v Speaker 5>to Lebron when he's on the floor, so it doesn't

0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.240
<v Speaker 5>really do him justice when they play them together.

0:19:53.040 --> 0:19:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, A d and Lebron's gonna get the

0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:56.679
<v Speaker 1>little bulk of the shots. You know that.

0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:58.639
<v Speaker 2>Now, let's what do you guys are feel Again, we

0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:01.800
<v Speaker 2>saw early in the season Auster Reeve's feeling it. So

0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:04.280
<v Speaker 2>he's gonna get fifteen to eighteen shots d lo he

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 2>gets hot one night. Okay, now that might creep up

0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:09.280
<v Speaker 2>the twenty shots on a given night, but you know, la,

0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.440
<v Speaker 2>Lebron and ad are gonna get the bulk of the shots.

0:20:12.640 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 2>But I think a lot of this had to do

0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:16.960
<v Speaker 2>it because they were getting blowed out Swish. They only

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:20.760
<v Speaker 2>played twenty eight, twenty four, twenty nine, thirty one minutes.

0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:23.880
<v Speaker 2>It's hard to get those kind of shots and that's

0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:26.800
<v Speaker 2>find that small amount of time. Now, if they play

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:29.600
<v Speaker 2>their normal minutes, maybe they can get up a few

0:20:29.640 --> 0:20:33.440
<v Speaker 2>more shots. But when you turn the ball over, everybody's

0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 2>shots are coming down because you don't even get an

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:38.440
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to put the ball up because you've turned it over.

0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:42.160
<v Speaker 2>And as you mentioned, they had thirty seven assists, So

0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:45.639
<v Speaker 2>that's telling me, great ball movement. It's also telling me,

0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:47.439
<v Speaker 2>y'all turn the ball over. They get some cheap assists

0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:47.880
<v Speaker 2>after that.

0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:51.000
<v Speaker 5>One, and you look at the rebounds thirty seven and

0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:53.760
<v Speaker 5>thirty six. The Lakers actually win the rebound game, yeah,

0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:57.520
<v Speaker 5>and they still get smoked. So for me, it's obviously

0:20:57.600 --> 0:21:00.320
<v Speaker 5>it's the turnover. It's turnovers for sure, because I was

0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:02.879
<v Speaker 5>a big fan of especially in transition. People hate the

0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:06.400
<v Speaker 5>transition three early threes. I'm taking the early good look

0:21:06.640 --> 0:21:09.200
<v Speaker 5>opposed to me swinging around the horn and we turn

0:21:09.280 --> 0:21:11.240
<v Speaker 5>this joint over and now I got to turn into

0:21:11.359 --> 0:21:13.680
<v Speaker 5>track start going on the other end. I'm gonna put

0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:15.520
<v Speaker 5>this up. I felt like I got a better percentage

0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:17.920
<v Speaker 5>of making this opposed to us turning the ball over,

0:21:18.000 --> 0:21:19.399
<v Speaker 5>and then we got to get a stop on the

0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:20.120
<v Speaker 5>other side.

0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:23.880
<v Speaker 2>What about the situation like this wish where guys are

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:27.000
<v Speaker 2>try early on trying to say I'm so unselfish and

0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:29.680
<v Speaker 2>you overpassed the ball and you end up turning it over.

0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Like you said, You're like, okay, I got a good

0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:35.080
<v Speaker 2>look in transition, I'm gonna let it rip as a polder. Oh,

0:21:35.080 --> 0:21:36.879
<v Speaker 2>hot potato, Hot potato. The next thing you know, the

0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:38.720
<v Speaker 2>ball's going out of bound. You're like, come on, man,

0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:39.960
<v Speaker 2>go ahead and take that shot.

0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:43.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's you know, it's tough when you come into

0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:45.919
<v Speaker 5>situations like when I first got to Cleveland. We used

0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:47.800
<v Speaker 5>to run into that a lot because it got Kyrie

0:21:47.800 --> 0:21:50.560
<v Speaker 5>at the point, me at the two. We got bron

0:21:50.760 --> 0:21:54.399
<v Speaker 5>K Love and obviously trusting setting screens and Rose and Mazi.

0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:57.520
<v Speaker 5>But we you look around the horn, it's like we

0:21:57.600 --> 0:21:59.480
<v Speaker 5>got like, listen, I got a good shot, but he

0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:01.560
<v Speaker 5>got a great shot, so let me kick it to him.

0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:04.360
<v Speaker 5>And you know, guys just operating so fast. You want

0:22:04.440 --> 0:22:06.439
<v Speaker 5>to be unselfish, but at the same time, it's like,

0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:08.680
<v Speaker 5>if I don't take this shot, then he's not gonna

0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:11.159
<v Speaker 5>be open when we needed to be open. So for me,

0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:12.960
<v Speaker 5>a lot of those times, it's like I want to

0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:15.320
<v Speaker 5>be unselfish, but at the same time, I got to

0:22:15.400 --> 0:22:17.639
<v Speaker 5>be selfish for the team because it's gonna help us

0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:18.520
<v Speaker 5>out in the long run.

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:23.639
<v Speaker 2>Twere you watched Bronni grow up, spend a lot of

0:22:23.720 --> 0:22:29.520
<v Speaker 2>years with Lebron in Cleveland, and see Bronni go from

0:22:29.560 --> 0:22:31.800
<v Speaker 2>a seven eight nine year old to now here he

0:22:31.960 --> 0:22:32.680
<v Speaker 2>is in the NBA.

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:35.280
<v Speaker 1>What do you what is what is this moment? What

0:22:35.320 --> 0:22:37.280
<v Speaker 1>do you think this moment means for Lebron?

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:39.640
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:42.080
<v Speaker 5>Man, I mean I couldn't. I can only imagine like

0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:43.960
<v Speaker 5>to be able to. I just have my first son,

0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:47.840
<v Speaker 5>he seven weeks so for me thinking about the graph, Man,

0:22:47.880 --> 0:22:49.320
<v Speaker 5>appreciate you. Appreciate y'all.

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Man, But you know we saw that, right, I mean,

0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:53.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you did.

0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:57.480
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna leave that, We're gonna lead that alone. But

0:22:57.560 --> 0:22:59.480
<v Speaker 2>I just said, I just want you to know we

0:22:59.520 --> 0:22:59.879
<v Speaker 2>saw that.

0:23:00.119 --> 0:23:03.080
<v Speaker 5>Hey, man, Hey, you know what I heard you. I

0:23:03.080 --> 0:23:04.399
<v Speaker 5>ain't seen you, but I heard you.

0:23:04.800 --> 0:23:07.879
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there you go. Good swish get too soon, swish it.

0:23:08.040 --> 0:23:08.439
<v Speaker 1>You know what.

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Got a matter fact, we bout on the same timeline.

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:14.960
<v Speaker 2>It's about seven weeks, so you know what. That's why

0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 2>that's why I left the headline so quick, because you

0:23:17.600 --> 0:23:19.280
<v Speaker 2>pushed me out, you like, get your.

0:23:19.200 --> 0:23:20.399
<v Speaker 1>Ass out of your head last.

0:23:20.960 --> 0:23:24.120
<v Speaker 5>Hey, I got the seventy two hour rule out. It's

0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:25.600
<v Speaker 5>over straight up.

0:23:30.440 --> 0:23:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but you're saying this moment for Lebron and even

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:36.360
<v Speaker 2>the city of Cleveland to see Lebron come back and

0:23:36.440 --> 0:23:37.520
<v Speaker 2>Brain Junior with me.

0:23:38.359 --> 0:23:42.520
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, man, I mean, honestly, Bronnie is such a you know,

0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:44.960
<v Speaker 5>you hear about so many different kids and so many

0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:48.280
<v Speaker 5>different situations who were like, you know, their parents are stars,

0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:51.399
<v Speaker 5>and they arrogant and they cocky and they feel like

0:23:51.440 --> 0:23:54.399
<v Speaker 5>they just you know, the world is supposed to be

0:23:54.440 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 5>their oyster. And Bronnie is the complete opposite.

0:23:56.760 --> 0:23:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Man.

0:23:56.960 --> 0:23:59.400
<v Speaker 5>It's like, it's a very humbling feeling to see him

0:23:59.680 --> 0:24:03.640
<v Speaker 5>in the situation he's in and he's very he's very

0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:09.560
<v Speaker 5>it's very grateful for the opportunity, you know, to live

0:24:09.600 --> 0:24:12.080
<v Speaker 5>out your dreams as a kid. That's one of the

0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:15.359
<v Speaker 5>very very rare, you know, few things that unfortunately with

0:24:15.520 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 5>us three have been able to do. But like to

0:24:17.880 --> 0:24:20.639
<v Speaker 5>actually live it out and have your pops there with

0:24:20.720 --> 0:24:23.320
<v Speaker 5>you to show you, to really show you the ropes,

0:24:23.880 --> 0:24:27.560
<v Speaker 5>it's very it's inspiring, man, Like I really look at

0:24:27.600 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 5>it and think of like, this is something I would

0:24:30.119 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 5>definitely want to give my kid one day if I

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:34.600
<v Speaker 5>can give them the keys to if you can get

0:24:34.600 --> 0:24:36.680
<v Speaker 5>the keys to the chevy to your son, like, what's

0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:38.720
<v Speaker 5>different than give them the keys to the business or

0:24:38.720 --> 0:24:40.880
<v Speaker 5>give them the keys to the game, like just and

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:43.640
<v Speaker 5>just letting them take it for you know, what they

0:24:43.640 --> 0:24:46.480
<v Speaker 5>wanted to be And regardless of the shoes that we feeled,

0:24:46.480 --> 0:24:49.520
<v Speaker 5>because obviously Bron is Bron and goes down to the

0:24:49.560 --> 0:24:51.719
<v Speaker 5>goat and everything else in comparison is going to be there,

0:24:51.840 --> 0:24:53.920
<v Speaker 5>be there or whatever. But to actually be able to

0:24:54.000 --> 0:24:56.679
<v Speaker 5>live out your dream is something that very few people

0:24:56.720 --> 0:24:59.600
<v Speaker 5>get to do. So I just hope he's in a

0:24:59.680 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 5>place to where he can actually absorb it and be

0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:04.520
<v Speaker 5>happy and be satisfied with it.

0:25:05.119 --> 0:25:07.800
<v Speaker 3>Now, I don't he and Jay, I don't think people

0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:12.600
<v Speaker 3>understand how dope this situation is, this scenario as a father,

0:25:13.000 --> 0:25:16.320
<v Speaker 3>as a father myself, and I'm just imagining being able

0:25:16.359 --> 0:25:19.040
<v Speaker 3>to play long enough in the NFL, which is hypothetically

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 3>it's damn there impossible, and to be able to play

0:25:22.640 --> 0:25:25.159
<v Speaker 3>long enough for your son to join you, just that

0:25:25.359 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 3>feeling and knowing all the work you know, Brinni and

0:25:28.400 --> 0:25:30.600
<v Speaker 3>Brown are put in over the years and how it's

0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:33.560
<v Speaker 3>paid off. Not only he's paid off, but now he

0:25:33.600 --> 0:25:36.280
<v Speaker 3>has the opportunity to share the court and the sport

0:25:36.320 --> 0:25:38.840
<v Speaker 3>in which they love and have grown up playing all

0:25:38.880 --> 0:25:40.920
<v Speaker 3>their life, and then to share it on the same team,

0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:44.399
<v Speaker 3>And that that is it's dope in itself, and I

0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:47.239
<v Speaker 3>really can't really put it into words how awesome it is.

0:25:47.359 --> 0:25:51.120
<v Speaker 3>A lot of people have been critical of it, obviously, saying,

0:25:51.200 --> 0:25:53.520
<v Speaker 3>you know, the whole favoritism and he only got he's

0:25:53.560 --> 0:25:54.000
<v Speaker 3>only there.

0:25:53.920 --> 0:25:54.639
<v Speaker 1>Because of his father.

0:25:54.880 --> 0:25:57.879
<v Speaker 3>Well hell, god, damn, yeah, well shit, you're supposed to

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:00.439
<v Speaker 3>take advantage of those opportunities when you have, you know,

0:26:00.920 --> 0:26:04.680
<v Speaker 3>the cachet, and you have the power that Lebron does

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:07.560
<v Speaker 3>to be able to bring your son on with you

0:26:07.640 --> 0:26:09.760
<v Speaker 3>and allow him to live out a dream, you know,

0:26:09.880 --> 0:26:14.440
<v Speaker 3>to play at the highest level. To me, it's damn,

0:26:14.640 --> 0:26:18.440
<v Speaker 3>it's unreal. It's unreal, and it's dope. It's motive, is motivating,

0:26:18.480 --> 0:26:22.679
<v Speaker 3>it's inspiring, and I just wish, I wish.

0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:23.479
<v Speaker 1>I could have done something like that.

0:26:23.520 --> 0:26:26.760
<v Speaker 3>Obviously I can't, so I'm gonna live vicereousy to them,

0:26:26.960 --> 0:26:27.960
<v Speaker 3>and that that's ship.

0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:28.959
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty much it, man.

0:26:29.000 --> 0:26:30.359
<v Speaker 3>That that's really really dope.

0:26:30.400 --> 0:26:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Man. You ain't seen that in football.

0:26:33.800 --> 0:26:35.479
<v Speaker 2>You ain't gonna see that in football, Jay d let

0:26:35.520 --> 0:26:38.280
<v Speaker 2>somebody have a kid while they're in high school and

0:26:38.320 --> 0:26:42.880
<v Speaker 2>they can play with and they I mean, you guys

0:26:42.880 --> 0:26:46.199
<v Speaker 2>could think about it. Tom Brady played twenty three seasons.

0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:50.160
<v Speaker 2>His son is probably a Southboy junior high school. Yeah,

0:26:50.200 --> 0:26:52.280
<v Speaker 2>so he would have had to have that kid at

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:58.280
<v Speaker 2>fifteen sixteen. So therefore by the time he's thirty two,

0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Tom got another eleven years. So by the time now,

0:27:02.359 --> 0:27:05.560
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, that's a realistic possibility. Now you know,

0:27:05.720 --> 0:27:09.480
<v Speaker 2>there might be somebody that the plot like, go drop

0:27:09.560 --> 0:27:12.040
<v Speaker 2>this one right here, you know, because that's what it's

0:27:12.040 --> 0:27:12.440
<v Speaker 2>gonna take.

0:27:12.440 --> 0:27:12.760
<v Speaker 1>O Joe.

0:27:13.000 --> 0:27:16.000
<v Speaker 2>You can't. I mean, Lebron had a kid at twenty,

0:27:16.960 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 2>a kid at twenty. Even if you have a kid

0:27:19.560 --> 0:27:25.080
<v Speaker 2>at twenty in the in the NFL, bro, what's the

0:27:25.200 --> 0:27:27.160
<v Speaker 2>likelihood you playing another twenty seasons?

0:27:27.160 --> 0:27:29.560
<v Speaker 3>Not good unless you're a quarterback and you really really

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:31.160
<v Speaker 3>really really really damn good.

0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:35.119
<v Speaker 1>And now your son. Because the difference is.

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:39.280
<v Speaker 2>NFL players don't have the kind of leverage that an

0:27:39.359 --> 0:27:43.920
<v Speaker 2>NBA player have, especially a superstar like a Lebron, because

0:27:44.040 --> 0:27:48.200
<v Speaker 2>the positions are so valuable. So it's gonna, like I said,

0:27:48.240 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 2>I think Gordy Howe. I think he might have played

0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:53.520
<v Speaker 2>with his sons back in the you know, but the

0:27:53.640 --> 0:27:55.840
<v Speaker 2>likelihood of you seeing that in the NFL.

0:27:56.440 --> 0:27:59.280
<v Speaker 1>Ain't seventy sent guild. Did Lebron's wife really break down

0:27:59.480 --> 0:28:02.480
<v Speaker 1>being with me? Yeah? No, that's the truth.

0:28:02.520 --> 0:28:04.320
<v Speaker 6>Listen, that's the true story, man, when I went over

0:28:04.440 --> 0:28:05.160
<v Speaker 6>Lebron's house.

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:09.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you heard the I think.

0:28:10.960 --> 0:28:14.639
<v Speaker 6>I think Richie Paul was on JJ's podcast when he

0:28:14.680 --> 0:28:17.160
<v Speaker 6>was talking about this big gambling game we did. Yeah,

0:28:18.040 --> 0:28:21.760
<v Speaker 6>like when we were doing the playoffs, Lebron wasn't gambling.

0:28:22.040 --> 0:28:26.800
<v Speaker 6>He was with him in Savannah, was watching film bringing down.

0:28:26.600 --> 0:28:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Tape on us.

0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:32.000
<v Speaker 6>And you know, I'm like looking like, oh, well, that

0:28:32.040 --> 0:28:34.160
<v Speaker 6>shit ain't gonna work because I don't like that play right,

0:28:34.200 --> 0:28:36.280
<v Speaker 6>But the fact that that's what they were doing at

0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:38.960
<v Speaker 6>a young age, because I went to coach like, man, hey,

0:28:38.960 --> 0:28:42.000
<v Speaker 6>that's like a machine was about to play against We

0:28:42.000 --> 0:28:43.440
<v Speaker 6>were better than them.

0:28:43.840 --> 0:28:45.520
<v Speaker 1>He was smarter than us.

0:28:46.240 --> 0:28:49.680
<v Speaker 6>Wow, he was better prepared at an early ege. No one,

0:28:49.960 --> 0:28:53.200
<v Speaker 6>I didn't he outsmarted us in that series.

0:28:53.240 --> 0:28:55.160
<v Speaker 1>He was just smarter than all of us.

0:28:55.440 --> 0:28:58.320
<v Speaker 6>We took we took his his gift for granted we

0:28:58.400 --> 0:29:01.480
<v Speaker 6>knew the athletics, we didn't know he was tactical.

0:29:03.520 --> 0:29:04.840
<v Speaker 1>Are you gil? You know?

0:29:04.960 --> 0:29:08.280
<v Speaker 2>Look chosen one on the cover Sports Illustrated. We know

0:29:08.400 --> 0:29:12.520
<v Speaker 2>the three straight the championships in the high school? Is

0:29:12.560 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 2>he more or exactly what you thought he would be?

0:29:17.760 --> 0:29:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Way more? Right? I mean I didn't. I didn't. I

0:29:23.160 --> 0:29:24.400
<v Speaker 1>didn't think that.

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:27.880
<v Speaker 6>I remember my dad said, hey, you better get you

0:29:27.920 --> 0:29:28.480
<v Speaker 6>better get ready.

0:29:28.520 --> 0:29:28.880
<v Speaker 1>This summer.

0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:31.760
<v Speaker 6>There's a kid coming in by the name Lebron James.

0:29:32.000 --> 0:29:34.640
<v Speaker 6>He's like a hurricane. Ain't nobody care about no high

0:29:34.640 --> 0:29:37.160
<v Speaker 6>school kid coming in? And then the first time I

0:29:37.200 --> 0:29:41.040
<v Speaker 6>seen him, I was like, all right, okay, at the

0:29:41.080 --> 0:29:44.800
<v Speaker 6>athleticism was different. And then just you know, being on

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:48.000
<v Speaker 6>the East Coast playing against him, I can just see

0:29:48.000 --> 0:29:50.680
<v Speaker 6>it clicking faster and fast. So he had to guard

0:29:50.760 --> 0:29:54.200
<v Speaker 6>me his first years. Well I was giving him that business.

0:29:54.280 --> 0:29:57.120
<v Speaker 6>But you can see it like, oh, man, by the

0:29:57.160 --> 0:30:00.920
<v Speaker 6>time he's twenty, oh, we're gonna be in trouble. And

0:30:01.280 --> 0:30:04.200
<v Speaker 6>this part I didn't. I didn't calculate. But watching him

0:30:04.240 --> 0:30:07.000
<v Speaker 6>break down film and then watching him I was like, oh, okay,

0:30:07.040 --> 0:30:08.960
<v Speaker 6>he's gonna be something to record word. But I just said,

0:30:09.040 --> 0:30:13.320
<v Speaker 6>you didn't see. You didn't see that he was gonna

0:30:13.320 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 6>take care of himself and be exactly what he is today.

0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 6>If someone said they they liing, they're they're lying.

0:30:24.000 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 4>To you.

0:30:25.800 --> 0:30:29.240
<v Speaker 2>For him to be able to do what he does,

0:30:29.800 --> 0:30:34.240
<v Speaker 2>because he missed a lot of the Bronis and Bryce

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:37.360
<v Speaker 2>and Zouri. He missed a lot of that because he

0:30:37.480 --> 0:30:40.280
<v Speaker 2>needs to get his rest, he needs to train, he

0:30:40.480 --> 0:30:44.240
<v Speaker 2>needs to to to have the physio and to make

0:30:44.280 --> 0:30:49.040
<v Speaker 2>sure everything and he's at the gym getting up those shots.

0:30:49.600 --> 0:30:54.120
<v Speaker 1>How important is it to have someone in your life that.

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Understands you, like Savannah understands Braun and not say I

0:30:59.080 --> 0:31:00.000
<v Speaker 2>need some help with the keys.

0:31:00.400 --> 0:31:02.160
<v Speaker 1>I've been there all day with the kids. Now that's

0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:02.840
<v Speaker 1>your turn now.

0:31:03.720 --> 0:31:07.320
<v Speaker 6>Oh no, no, no, that's exactly what the other ninety

0:31:07.400 --> 0:31:09.560
<v Speaker 6>nine point nine percent of us get.

0:31:09.760 --> 0:31:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I think you all day with the kids here, right.

0:31:12.600 --> 0:31:13.440
<v Speaker 1>So the fact.

0:31:13.240 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 6>That that they've been there from the beginning, the whole

0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.320
<v Speaker 6>team Maverick, that it's the same group from day one.

0:31:21.720 --> 0:31:24.840
<v Speaker 1>They all knew the objective.

0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:29.000
<v Speaker 6>And that ejective be better if it was be better

0:31:29.000 --> 0:31:32.280
<v Speaker 6>than Michael Jordan. They all did they part, right, So

0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:35.360
<v Speaker 6>we when we look and say what has he sacrificed.

0:31:35.760 --> 0:31:39.280
<v Speaker 1>And we look at Bronnie and the family. He sacrificed

0:31:39.440 --> 0:31:40.440
<v Speaker 1>being with his kids.

0:31:40.520 --> 0:31:46.640
<v Speaker 6>Right now, it's twenty years, twenty one, twenty one years,

0:31:46.680 --> 0:31:49.520
<v Speaker 6>So that means he didn't get to really be hands

0:31:49.600 --> 0:31:50.640
<v Speaker 6>on with Bronnie.

0:31:50.960 --> 0:31:54.760
<v Speaker 1>I was Bronnie's first trainer. Hey, Gil, what you think?

0:31:54.760 --> 0:31:55.400
<v Speaker 1>What you look like?

0:31:55.440 --> 0:31:55.600
<v Speaker 5>Hey?

0:31:55.920 --> 0:31:57.120
<v Speaker 1>You know I'm nervous for him.

0:31:57.040 --> 0:31:59.520
<v Speaker 6>You know, you know what I mean, because he's not

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:03.560
<v Speaker 6>there to really instill what he can into him.

0:32:03.880 --> 0:32:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Right, It's been from a distance. That's what he sacrificed. Right.

0:32:08.960 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 6>So the fact that you know, a Savannah has really

0:32:12.280 --> 0:32:15.600
<v Speaker 6>gotten these boys to where they are just shows you

0:32:15.680 --> 0:32:18.120
<v Speaker 6>what type of stability he's had this whole.

0:32:17.920 --> 0:32:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Time, especial because she's made it abundantly clear.

0:32:22.600 --> 0:32:24.800
<v Speaker 2>She said, like some people want to start a business,

0:32:24.800 --> 0:32:27.080
<v Speaker 2>and some people want to do this, She says, all

0:32:27.120 --> 0:32:30.680
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to be with a wife and raise a family.

0:32:32.000 --> 0:32:34.440
<v Speaker 2>So that means she gave up anything that she could

0:32:34.440 --> 0:32:37.320
<v Speaker 2>possibly want to be outside of being a wife and

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:41.840
<v Speaker 2>raising a family to sacrifice because she knew what he wanted.

0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:45.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, think about somebody giving up them, you know,

0:32:45.280 --> 0:32:48.720
<v Speaker 2>that's like a mother and a father sacrificing for their child.

0:32:49.600 --> 0:32:52.760
<v Speaker 1>But she sacrifices sacrifice.

0:32:52.560 --> 0:32:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Maybe what she wanted or what she could have achieved.

0:32:56.920 --> 0:32:58.840
<v Speaker 2>So you know what, maybe you got I got them

0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:02.800
<v Speaker 2>you Hey, I got this. I'm in the carpool lane.

0:33:03.360 --> 0:33:05.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna pick him up. I'm gonna be there. When

0:33:05.560 --> 0:33:07.640
<v Speaker 2>they look up in the stands, They're gonna see one

0:33:07.680 --> 0:33:10.440
<v Speaker 2>of us. It's probably gonna be me, because I want

0:33:10.480 --> 0:33:12.880
<v Speaker 2>you to be the best that you absolutely can possibly be.

0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Now it gets to a point, Savannah, what do I

0:33:16.800 --> 0:33:18.240
<v Speaker 2>absolutely have to.

0:33:18.200 --> 0:33:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Be there for.

0:33:21.080 --> 0:33:24.320
<v Speaker 2>Bridie's first game considering what he went through this summer,

0:33:24.800 --> 0:33:28.160
<v Speaker 2>the cardiac arrest, we don't know if he if and

0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:31.320
<v Speaker 2>when he'll ever play again. Or I can't miss that

0:33:32.200 --> 0:33:37.160
<v Speaker 2>under no circumstances. All Star Game Game one, I can't miss.

0:33:37.200 --> 0:33:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I cannot miss that because I don't know. You don't

0:33:41.880 --> 0:33:44.760
<v Speaker 2>get an opportunity to do the first again, to see

0:33:44.800 --> 0:33:49.600
<v Speaker 2>your see your oldest play his first collegiate game. So

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:53.320
<v Speaker 2>now you understand, because remember O, Joe, you and YO.

0:33:53.400 --> 0:33:58.000
<v Speaker 2>You know this, there's a great sacrifice to be the greater,

0:33:58.080 --> 0:34:01.000
<v Speaker 2>the the greater the person, the great of the sacrifices

0:34:01.040 --> 0:34:05.280
<v Speaker 2>that they've made and there is no balance for greatness.

0:34:05.400 --> 0:34:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Anybody tell you there is the line. Mm hm.

0:34:08.760 --> 0:34:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Go ask Vanessa, Go go ask Jeda, George, George's first wife.

0:34:16.360 --> 0:34:18.839
<v Speaker 2>Go ask the greats. I'm talking about the I ain't

0:34:18.840 --> 0:34:21.000
<v Speaker 2>talking about you know, look there there there's a lot

0:34:21.000 --> 0:34:24.040
<v Speaker 2>of good players that's the great But I'm talking about this, this, this, this,

0:34:24.040 --> 0:34:24.759
<v Speaker 2>this pyramid.

0:34:25.800 --> 0:34:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Ask them, ask them.

0:34:30.000 --> 0:34:34.640
<v Speaker 7>It's the one thing that I think, as men, especially athletes,

0:34:35.560 --> 0:34:39.319
<v Speaker 7>when we look at you know, Lebron James and the

0:34:39.440 --> 0:34:45.839
<v Speaker 7>Kobe's Chris Paul, that that woman that's that understands them

0:34:45.880 --> 0:34:50.040
<v Speaker 7>to a t, right, that that is the other half

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:50.720
<v Speaker 7>of them.

0:34:51.200 --> 0:34:52.040
<v Speaker 1>It's an envy.

0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:55.480
<v Speaker 6>Like you started looking around at the girls you chose, Like, man,

0:34:55.520 --> 0:34:57.839
<v Speaker 6>what was I looking at? Like you know what I mean?

0:34:57.920 --> 0:35:00.520
<v Speaker 6>Like it's like, what was I looking at? What was

0:35:00.560 --> 0:35:04.719
<v Speaker 6>I chasing? Because what I was chasing wasn't it? This

0:35:04.800 --> 0:35:07.239
<v Speaker 6>is what I've wanted, Like my career would have been

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:12.320
<v Speaker 6>better if I had that, right, Like you know what

0:35:12.360 --> 0:35:18.960
<v Speaker 6>I mean, Like if I had some guidance, some understanding, right, Alfred,

0:35:20.040 --> 0:35:20.680
<v Speaker 6>not a Robin.

0:35:21.760 --> 0:35:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't need someone else there trying to be a

0:35:23.760 --> 0:35:25.160
<v Speaker 1>hero with me. Alfred.

0:35:25.200 --> 0:35:28.200

0:35:35.200 --> 0:35:40.719
<v Speaker 6>think that's what we when we sit here chasing, we're chasing, looking.

0:35:40.400 --> 0:35:43.360
<v Speaker 1>For that, and we don't know what it looks like.

0:35:43.400 --> 0:35:46.279
<v Speaker 1>But when we do get it, we're like, hey, hey,

<v Speaker 6>You're telling me someone makes more than me, and I'm

0:37:24.280 --> 0:37:25.000
<v Speaker 6>not gonna stop.

0:37:25.120 --> 0:37:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm done, take my bi have them. What are you

0:37:29.600 --> 0:37:32.279
<v Speaker 1>talking about? Oh Joe, you excuse me.

0:37:32.520 --> 0:37:35.400
<v Speaker 2>Gil You suffered the same thing that I suffer because

0:37:35.640 --> 0:37:37.960
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want the girl that wanted me. I wanted

0:37:38.000 --> 0:37:40.439
<v Speaker 2>the girl. And so when you choose somebody to choose

0:37:40.480 --> 0:37:42.120
<v Speaker 2>the girl that want you, not the girl you want,

0:37:42.360 --> 0:37:44.840
<v Speaker 2>because the girl that you won't ain't gonna be the

0:37:44.960 --> 0:37:47.400
<v Speaker 2>ain't gonna be the one. Yea, I know that's that

0:37:47.640 --> 0:37:49.680
<v Speaker 2>you have to You have to live. You have to live.

0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:52.839
<v Speaker 2>You have to live and learn. And when you when

0:37:52.840 --> 0:37:55.040
<v Speaker 2>you look, man, you you you.

0:37:55.000 --> 0:37:55.799
<v Speaker 1>Don't know any better.

0:37:55.960 --> 0:37:58.759
<v Speaker 2>You you you not even you, not even thinking at

0:37:58.760 --> 0:38:01.680
<v Speaker 2>that point in time. You're like, man, I should have

0:38:01.719 --> 0:38:03.200
<v Speaker 2>married this what I should have married this one in

0:38:03.239 --> 0:38:06.080
<v Speaker 2>my college and then that didn't work out, or somebody

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:08.400
<v Speaker 2>because we all say this, I'm gonna get somebody that

0:38:08.520 --> 0:38:12.200
<v Speaker 2>knows that knew me would I didn't have anything. I

0:38:12.239 --> 0:38:14.920
<v Speaker 2>had this old raggedy car, I didn't have no indoor plumbing,

0:38:15.160 --> 0:38:17.120
<v Speaker 2>and they know what they know what it's like the

0:38:17.200 --> 0:38:21.080
<v Speaker 2>sacrifice and be there for me. Then if that doesn't work,

0:38:21.080 --> 0:38:24.799
<v Speaker 2>I give then where do we go? Because the one

0:38:24.800 --> 0:38:32.759
<v Speaker 2>that we thought, uh, you know, it's like, oh Joe,

0:38:32.760 --> 0:38:35.840
<v Speaker 2>it's like, well, you know if the if the the

0:38:35.960 --> 0:38:39.560
<v Speaker 2>high school or the college sweetheart doesn't work, well, damn

0:38:40.120 --> 0:38:42.600
<v Speaker 2>even if you even if you the seventh round, if

0:38:42.640 --> 0:38:45.839
<v Speaker 2>you're on an NFL team, you in the NFL. It

0:38:45.840 --> 0:38:48.880
<v Speaker 2>ain't like you know what I'm saying, Hey, you're in

0:38:48.880 --> 0:38:52.120
<v Speaker 2>the NFL. It's not like you know, well, you know,

0:38:52.320 --> 0:38:55.920
<v Speaker 2>you work around the building. You actually in the league.

0:38:56.239 --> 0:38:58.560
<v Speaker 2>So whether you a seventh round pick or a first

0:38:58.600 --> 0:39:03.360
<v Speaker 2>round pick, hey, are you that shocked to play for

0:39:03.400 --> 0:39:09.520
<v Speaker 2>the Broncos. Now it's a whole it's a whole different story.

0:39:11.520 --> 0:39:18.799
<v Speaker 2>Too late now oh Joe, Yeah, Oh, you know, I

0:39:18.840 --> 0:39:20.520
<v Speaker 2>wanted to get that, and I know you've probably heard

0:39:20.560 --> 0:39:24.799
<v Speaker 2>of it by now. I wanted to respond to some

0:39:24.880 --> 0:39:27.600
<v Speaker 2>of the criticism, and I normally don't respond to the

0:39:27.600 --> 0:39:30.319
<v Speaker 2>criticism because I don't I don't care anyway. And there

0:39:30.320 --> 0:39:31.480
<v Speaker 2>have been a lot of guys, there have been a

0:39:31.480 --> 0:39:35.480
<v Speaker 2>lot of people taking shots at me personally. But we

0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:37.920
<v Speaker 2>know why they see Unk and Ochoe. They see the

0:39:37.960 --> 0:39:41.360
<v Speaker 2>success that we're having, they see Club Sha, the success

0:39:41.360 --> 0:39:43.520
<v Speaker 2>that I'm having doing that, they see the success that

0:39:43.560 --> 0:39:46.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm having on ESPN. So sometimes the only success someone

0:39:46.560 --> 0:39:48.440
<v Speaker 2>can have is that they take a bite out of you.

0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:51.080
<v Speaker 2>That's their success is a by biting you, and I'm

0:39:51.080 --> 0:39:55.080
<v Speaker 2>cool with that. But I was asked, and I think

0:39:55.120 --> 0:39:58.719
<v Speaker 2>the question was, is that Lebron said he would be

0:39:58.880 --> 0:40:04.600
<v Speaker 2>still the same play absolutely had he never played in Miami. Absolutely,

0:40:05.280 --> 0:40:10.200
<v Speaker 2>And two things can be true. I believe Lebron James

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:13.319
<v Speaker 2>would have still been the all time leading scorer. I

0:40:13.360 --> 0:40:16.200
<v Speaker 2>still believe Lebron James would have scored thirty thousand points,

0:40:16.360 --> 0:40:20.280
<v Speaker 2>had ten thousand rebounds, ten thousand assists. I still believe

0:40:20.360 --> 0:40:23.120
<v Speaker 2>he would have been a first team All NBA player.

0:40:23.520 --> 0:40:25.640
<v Speaker 2>I still believe he would have been a multi time

0:40:25.960 --> 0:40:29.520
<v Speaker 2>All Star player. But the pushback that I'm gonna give,

0:40:30.200 --> 0:40:32.319
<v Speaker 2>I do not believe he's the Lebron James that we

0:40:32.400 --> 0:40:37.720
<v Speaker 2>know without that stand in Miami, because without that because

0:40:37.760 --> 0:40:40.840
<v Speaker 2>proud of him going there, he had zero championships but

0:40:40.920 --> 0:40:46.400
<v Speaker 2>two MVPs. He goes to Miami, he gets two titles

0:40:47.000 --> 0:40:49.960
<v Speaker 2>and two more MVPs. So now he's four and two.

0:40:50.840 --> 0:40:53.600
<v Speaker 2>There's only a handful of people. Now you gotta go.

0:40:53.800 --> 0:40:57.399
<v Speaker 2>There's only three people before Lebron did it. Will got four,

0:40:58.040 --> 0:41:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Jordan has five, Russell has five, and I think Kareem

0:41:02.280 --> 0:41:05.120
<v Speaker 2>has six, so they're four people. So now Lebron is

0:41:05.120 --> 0:41:08.640
<v Speaker 2>an exclusive company. So now people got like, hold on,

0:41:08.680 --> 0:41:11.520
<v Speaker 2>wait a minute, and he had him at the age

0:41:11.520 --> 0:41:17.040
<v Speaker 2>of twenty eight. So now he goes back to Cleveland,

0:41:17.800 --> 0:41:22.000
<v Speaker 2>he gets another title, four and three, he goes to

0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:25.560
<v Speaker 2>LA he gets another title. Now he's four and four,

0:41:26.000 --> 0:41:29.520
<v Speaker 2>so now he's an elite company. He's one of two

0:41:29.600 --> 0:41:34.719
<v Speaker 2>men to win multiple MVPs two locations, Kareem three and

0:41:34.800 --> 0:41:38.160
<v Speaker 2>three three in Milwaukee, three in LA. He's one of

0:41:38.239 --> 0:41:44.800
<v Speaker 2>two men to win multiple MVPs finals MVPs at different locations, Kawhi,

0:41:45.800 --> 0:41:52.959
<v Speaker 2>San Antonio, Toronto, Kareem, Milwaukee, La Lebron James, So could

0:41:52.960 --> 0:41:56.799
<v Speaker 2>you still be the same player? Yes, but not the

0:41:56.840 --> 0:42:01.239
<v Speaker 2>player we know because without that because whether you see

0:42:01.480 --> 0:42:04.120
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing, O Joe, you can't say. And everybody

0:42:04.160 --> 0:42:07.640
<v Speaker 2>keeps saying he could go anywhere and win those titles. Yeah,

0:42:08.280 --> 0:42:12.560
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Durant Camp Kevin Durant went to Golden State, stayed

0:42:12.560 --> 0:42:16.319
<v Speaker 2>three years, won two titles finals MVP both years, got

0:42:16.400 --> 0:42:18.759
<v Speaker 2>hurt the third year, even though advanced, they lost. He

0:42:18.840 --> 0:42:21.160
<v Speaker 2>went to Brooklyn for four years? How many more times?

0:42:21.200 --> 0:42:23.719
<v Speaker 2>How many more championships he won? Who can I ask

0:42:23.719 --> 0:42:25.480
<v Speaker 2>you a question? Let me stop you right there. We

0:42:25.480 --> 0:42:26.720
<v Speaker 2>talked about James.

0:42:26.840 --> 0:42:29.040
<v Speaker 3>Okay, we talk about the greatest play We can talk

0:42:29.080 --> 0:42:31.319
<v Speaker 3>about the greatest player on the planet that would change

0:42:31.320 --> 0:42:35.279
<v Speaker 3>the dynamic of a team he's on. So in his

0:42:35.440 --> 0:42:38.680
<v Speaker 3>early and his late late late twenties, yes, twenty eight, Yeah,

0:42:38.680 --> 0:42:39.400
<v Speaker 3>win anywhere?

0:42:39.480 --> 0:42:40.680
<v Speaker 1>He could any team.

0:42:41.080 --> 0:42:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Why do you go to Miami, d Why do you

0:42:42.880 --> 0:42:45.279
<v Speaker 2>go to Miami? Then d Wade told him to come

0:42:45.280 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 2>on home.

0:42:45.760 --> 0:42:47.200
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no. But you said he could have

0:42:47.200 --> 0:42:47.800
<v Speaker 1>gone anywhere.

0:42:48.080 --> 0:42:51.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he could have been that he felt that

0:42:51.360 --> 0:42:55.000
<v Speaker 2>was the best chance for him to win AM I correct.

0:42:54.640 --> 0:42:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Obviously he wanted to pay himself.

0:42:56.080 --> 0:42:57.800
<v Speaker 3>You want to pay himself with Boston Wade?

0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:00.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, because but see, o Joe, see this is

0:43:00.719 --> 0:43:02.840
<v Speaker 2>what this wouldn't see the different?

0:43:03.760 --> 0:43:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Remember Cleveland? Right? Yes? Who did he have on the

0:43:08.440 --> 0:43:10.359
<v Speaker 1>team with them? But here's the thing.

0:43:10.960 --> 0:43:13.239
<v Speaker 2>What what knowledge did he take back that he had

0:43:13.280 --> 0:43:15.520
<v Speaker 2>acquired from Miami back to.

0:43:15.480 --> 0:43:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland how to win? Ah? So where did he learn that? Okay?

0:43:22.440 --> 0:43:22.640
<v Speaker 5>Then?

0:43:22.880 --> 0:43:25.880
<v Speaker 2>So without that still in Miami, is he the same?

0:43:26.080 --> 0:43:28.960
<v Speaker 2>Do we view him the same without those four MVPs,

0:43:29.000 --> 0:43:32.200
<v Speaker 2>without those two other MVPs. And because here's the thing,

0:43:32.200 --> 0:43:34.759
<v Speaker 2>oh Joe, this is what we gotta look. If he

0:43:34.840 --> 0:43:38.080
<v Speaker 2>doesn't get those two MVP's regular seasons and those two

0:43:38.120 --> 0:43:41.280
<v Speaker 2>final MVPs, how do you put him in front of Kareem?

0:43:41.800 --> 0:43:46.680
<v Speaker 2>Kareem has six regular season MVPs, two finals MVPs, five titles.

0:43:46.960 --> 0:43:49.040
<v Speaker 2>How do you put him in front of Jordan who's

0:43:49.040 --> 0:43:51.279
<v Speaker 2>six and six? How do you put him in front

0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:55.360
<v Speaker 2>of Tim Duncan who has five titles, three finals MVP,

0:43:55.800 --> 0:43:57.480
<v Speaker 2>two regular season MVPs.

0:43:57.520 --> 0:43:58.960
<v Speaker 1>How do you put him in front of Magic?

0:43:59.239 --> 0:44:04.239
<v Speaker 2>Magic has three regular seas An MVPs five finals, three finals, MVPs.

0:44:04.560 --> 0:44:06.440
<v Speaker 2>How do you put him in there? If he doesn't

0:44:06.480 --> 0:44:08.959
<v Speaker 2>have that Miami stint on his resume.

0:44:09.560 --> 0:44:13.239
<v Speaker 3>You're underestimating how great Lebron is. I think if he

0:44:13.280 --> 0:44:16.560
<v Speaker 3>didn't go to Miami, if he chose to go somewhere else, regardless,

0:44:16.560 --> 0:44:18.320
<v Speaker 3>it would have been I think the outcome would have

0:44:18.360 --> 0:44:18.759
<v Speaker 3>been the same.

0:44:18.960 --> 0:44:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Now, that's not what he said, even he said it.

0:44:21.600 --> 0:44:24.320
<v Speaker 2>If you read Lebron James tweet, this is what Lebron said,

0:44:24.680 --> 0:44:27.759
<v Speaker 2>You damn right. I will still be I'm chosen. Ain't

0:44:27.880 --> 0:44:32.400
<v Speaker 2>nothing changing. Maybe less rings, but dominant from start to finish.

0:44:32.640 --> 0:44:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Even if he had said it he said maybe less rings,

0:44:35.920 --> 0:44:38.160
<v Speaker 3>but common sense and the eye test will tell you.

0:44:38.280 --> 0:44:42.600
<v Speaker 3>Wherever Lebron goes, that team come Hell of high Water

0:44:42.719 --> 0:44:44.560
<v Speaker 3>is probably going to be in the finals or in

0:44:44.600 --> 0:44:45.520
<v Speaker 3>contention to be in it.
