8
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:31,520

Speaker 2: Yeah, got to come on.

19
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: After the game, I went with Lexi to highlight room

20
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 3: with her teammates. They had a section shut down the

Speaker 2: drinking off the bottles in the corner.

25
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 3: They had highlight rooms shut down. I was like, I mean,

31
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 3: No, No, LEXI put me in the side check session,

32
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 3: treated like a groupie.

33
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: I brought, made fun of him for coming to the game.

34
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: I remember that episode.

35
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: I kidding me, you have to No. No, I had

36
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: two tickets, but it was more so because one he

37
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: didn't take me and you didn't invite me. I had

38
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: that on the whole situation. I was and I've never been.

39
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 2: Actually i've been to I've been to two w NBA games.

40
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 2: I've been the two games, but I've never been to

41
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: a Sparks game.

42
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: So I was kind of, don't go, don't start now.

43
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: Well, no, you're not there, no more so we're not

44
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: You're not You're not allowed Seattle or nothing.

45
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 3: The Sparks. We don't even have a lighter in here.

46
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: You don't want to see a flame anyway.

47
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 2: It's Seattle, Spark, Starbucks, it's you know, the fish market.

48
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: That's what we already.

49
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 3: Maclamore deserves that exactly as far as I'm concerned. Only

50
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: on that Seattle show.

51
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 2: So, Lexi, you came in early and we were talking

52
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: about you know, just women hooping with guys. And you

53
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 2: said that you recently played in the little pickup game

54
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 2: just to kind of see where your win was at,

55
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: and you decided like not even halfway through, like Okay,

56
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: I can't do this because the guys were just absolutely terrible. Yeah,

57
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: how often does that happen?

58
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: Well, I don't play pick up with guys often anymore,

59
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: unless it's like an organized run, which again I don't.

60
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,839
Speaker 1: I don't do those. I do a lot of like

61
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: two on two, three on three, one on one in

62
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: my workouts, like guys that come in and train with

63
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: me and rebounding stuff just to like get game reps in.

64
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, that game my trainer, Like, I guess these

65
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 1: random groups of older guys just come in that night

66
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: time and play just for fun. So I was like,

67
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: I was nervous going into my athletes's a limited season

68
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: because I hadn't played a real game since June of

69
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: last year. So I was like, because we tried on

70
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: a half court, so I was like, let me see

71
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: what my win looks like just in a full court

72
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: just pushits and gigs, and it was a lot of

73
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: just nonsense. So did get to the point where, like

74
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: I would score a few points and then like they

75
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: would stop giving me the ball, like okay, like.

76
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 2: I'm the pro.

77
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: This is about me right now, It's not about y'all.

78
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: I know, I jumped into y'all's pickup game. Y'all probably

79
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: who is this? And then always when I start playing,

80
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: like they look at me and they're like.

81
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: Oh, that has to be fun though, because the w NBA, unless,

82
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: like you know, you're one of the faces of the league,

83
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 2: You're one of the five faces of the w NBA,

84
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: it has to be kind of fun walking into like

85
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: an open gym LA fitness with all the guys, I

86
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 2: don't say as a former, as a real athlete, a

87
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: real basketball player, and walking into the gym and guys

88
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: don't know, they just they hold this girl just trying

89
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: to get a work out and kind of sweat whatever whatever,

90
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: Like does she know what the travel is? Meanwhile, you're

91
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 2: a world champion basketball player and you just go in

92
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 2: there and just start toasting everybody.

93
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely like put on my extra girly behavior

94
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: when I go. If I do happen like this.

95
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 3: One thing, what you're doing, it's a whole TikTok series.

96
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 3: We need to start hustling.

97
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: I know though I've thought about it, thought about it,

98
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: especially in a shooting contest like maybe pick up one

99
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: on one. Guys probably could beat me because just physicality.

100
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: I'm not going to argue that I would still have

101
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: to be a guy that can really play it. Yeah,

102
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: but like shooting, no chance, never happening. You're no, not

103
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,239
Speaker 1: many people are going to out shoot me over.

104
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 2: That's all your challenge? Are you staring at me while

105
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 2: you're saying.

106
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 4: That it's not a challenge?

107
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 3: Who challenging? She's not going to be challenging.

108
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: I'm the best shooter. I don't know shoot me. And

109
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: I was like you talking to me, no, no, because

110
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: you was.

111
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: Absolute too. But she was like Lexie was stayed at

112
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 2: me like not happening, And I'm like, I didn't say anything,

113
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 2: number one, but if you called me out, let's go

114
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 2: out there and do make some happen.

115
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: Go find a hoop?

116
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 2: You loving food now, I don't want I don't want

117
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 2: no problems with X. I don't want no problems. So

118
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 2: lex in the w NBA, in the locker room, I'm

119
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 2: sure as far as pre game, you know, it's it's

120
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 2: kind of similar to some of the guys as far

121
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 2: as like, you know, the routine getting ready mentally preparing

122
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: for a game. Because sports are sports, what is the

123
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 2: mood like in the locker room with women? Like what

124
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: are y'all listening to? Like what is the vibe in

125
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 2: the women's locker room?

126
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 1: It really depends on the people on the team. So,

127
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: like my first season with the Sparks, so then I'll

128
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: just say, like my most recent experiences, we had like

129
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: a few more older players, so we like having like

130
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: R and B Nekaumakay She's Nigerian, so it was like

131
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: a lot of afrobeats like that, so like it was

132
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: good vibes. And then this past year we had a

133
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: whole bunch of little babies, so we were listening to

134
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: Sexy Red and Gunna, which I love them, but like

135
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: for me, I am like very R and B chill

136
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: vibes for a pre game, So I would just put

137
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: my headphones on. But you got to get to the

138
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: arena like three hours early, so like everybody has like

139
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: their time slots to do their things, so everybody kind

140
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: of is like doing their own thing. I personally hate

141
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: that I don't need three hours to get ready for

142
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: a game.

143
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: And no matter who you playing.

144
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: No, like even in athletes unlimited, Like I was getting

145
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: to the gym maybe hour hour fifteen before the game,

146
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: like getting getting my mind right, get some shots up,

147
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: and I'm ready to go. For me, the less I think,

148
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,559
Speaker 1: the better I play. I'm gonna go over the scout

149
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna know the scouting report. I know all

150
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: these players like the back of my hand because I'm

151
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: like truly a student. But like getting to the arena

152
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: at like four point thirty, I hate it. Okay, we're

153
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: on the court for like two hours before the game. Yeah,

154
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: Like and then you're like in a full sweat, whole

155
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: work out before the game, which is amazing, especially for

156
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: me earlier in my crew when I was not playing. Okay,

157
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: when you start playing though those two hour warm ups.

158
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 2: You're like it kind of like takes the moment like

159
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 2: we just play already, Yeah, I feel you.

160
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 3: Okay, When when does it get the fit off photo happen?

161
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 3: Is that before?

162
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: Yes?

163
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 3: Hours always laugh at all athletes that do that. You

164
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 3: know that they're wearing a fit to go change immediately.

165
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 3: You know, it's funny going through a tunnel with your

166
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 3: fit park.

167
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: You're going through a parking garage the loading dock with

168
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: your best clothes on, and you're going home after the game. Usually,

169
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: like for me, especially in LA, like if I have

170
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: a really cute outfit on, I'm probably going to go

171
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: do something get But like this season, I don't know,

172
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: because my new teammates in Seattle, they be like putting

173
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: on like really nice outfits for games. I'm trying to decide,

174
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: like what my energy is going to be this season,

175
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: Like I kind of feel like I want to just

176
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: show up, like I'm about to go play basketball, Like

177
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm gonna be in this tunnel

178
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: fit conversation anyway. Yeah, and they'd be like Skyler Necka Gabby,

179
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: like they have some really nice outfits. I remember seeing

180
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: them last season. I don't know, this might be my vibes.

181
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 2: I want to say, like I think that's kind of

182
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 2: dope though, to do like just the sweats.

183
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, I don't really have.

184
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 2: I think Asia had did that a few times.

185
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: She looked started dropping like forty on people.

186
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: I like that because I'm the best player in the league.

187
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 2: I don't care like I'm coming in here with flip flops.

188
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: T shirt and some shorts and I'm getting right to

189
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 2: the business. I like that type.

190
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: I feel like maybe certain games, like if we have

191
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: like a tea nationally televised game, maybe I'll put a

192
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: cute outfit on. But I really don't think I'm going

193
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: to go to Seattle and be like super focused on

194
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 1: total fits.

195
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: I really want to know what might be fire. Seattle

196
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 2: a lot of rain. You can get a lot of

197
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 2: raincoats off.

198
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: Rain coats in the summer.

199
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 2: Though, Yeah, I'm sure it rings.

200
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: And it's not. Have you guys been to Seattle?

201
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love Seattle.

202
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: One of my favorite places.

203
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: I've heard so much. Like we went a couple of

204
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 2: years ago to Seattle. And it's funny when we go

205
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 2: to different cities, like we sometimes hang out, but then

206
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 2: most of the days that if we're there on the ground,

207
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 2: like maybe two days, we do like a lot of

208
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 2: different things. And then like when we finally meet before

209
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: the show, me and Rory, we start talking about like

210
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 2: what we did. And in Seattle, we were sitting in

211
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 2: the group chat like yo, I love this city, Like

212
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: this is a dope city, like we've heard like, oh

213
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: it's depressing, the weather, it's gloomy old year. I was like,

214
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: I don't care. This is my vibet. Like I literally

215
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 2: walked around Seattle like a true tourist.

216
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's going to be fun too because we're

217
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: the only basketball professional basketball team there and then they

218
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: have the Seahawks obviously, but they're not in season. But

219
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: like when we're playing, like we have the Rams, the Chargers,

220
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: the Clippers, the Lakers. Now UCLA and USC girls are

221
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: really good, so like we're kind of like we've been

222
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: like the bottom of the totem pole for years, so

223
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: I was excited to like kind of get the sparks

224
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: back like the top of that totem pole. But now

225
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm in Seattle and.

240
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: over a year ago. So yeah, she's been awesome. And

241
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: you know the fact that someone like Sue Bird recognized

242
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: my voice and presence in the league despite the ups

243
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,840

248
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,319

00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 1: really like gossipgh school. Yeah, so my mom is mixed,

288
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: so she's half white. My twenty five percent comes out

289
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: from time to time. I listened to a lot of

290
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: Backstreet Boys and Sync. My dad likes, you know, older

291
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: R and B music. My mom loves Luther Van Draws.

292
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: So we have like a very different type of like.

293
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 2: The word I founded music in the house.

294
00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure.

295
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 2: Who are some of your teammates that you absolutely love

296
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: their musical taste? Like you would absolutely let them control

297
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 2: the music.

298
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: And the lot for me personally, because my taste of

299
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: music is so all over the place. Nobody like you

300
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: don't want none of your Like like I said, I

301
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: like I have a Drake song, then Future will come on,

302
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: then Justin Zerlate will come on, and like Britney Speers

303
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: will come on. Okay, so it's like all over the place. Yeah,

304
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: And I've kind of like stopped listening to a lot

305
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 1: of rap music lately because it doesn't like make me happy,

306
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: like the energy of rap music for me, just in

307
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: the time of my life that I'm in right now,

308
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: it doesn't align.

309
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 2: Is you more R and B right now?

310
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah? And pop?

311
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 2: That's funny because I was watching I was watching the

312
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 2: Jordan documentary Last Dance. I watched that probably like every

313
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 2: other month just to just to watch it. That was

314
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: so much fun incredible documentary. And it's always funny to

315
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 2: me when I think they were in Utah up in

316
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 2: the finals and Jordan is getting on the bus and

317
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: he's walking through the tunnel and he had his headphones

318
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: on it. He's like jamming right, So I'm laughing because

319
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 2: we already know what he's listening to. But the first

320
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 2: time watching it, I remember when somebody asked him, like, yo, Mike,

321
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 2: what you're listening to? He's like Kenny Lattimore, Mike, Ain't

322
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 2: nobody ever bought their head that hard to Kenny Lattimer.

323
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 2: But this is straight R and B music.

324
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 3: I don't know what song from Kenny makes you.

325
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 2: He was doing this and like playing the air drums,

326
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 2: and I'm like, Kenny Latimore doesn't have any music like that.

327
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 2: But it's just funny that the most dominant player in

328
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: the world is listening to like smooth R and B

329
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: on his way to like the finals.

330
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you need to chill out, you need to calm down,

331
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: like getting too high. I'm just not a super hyphe

332
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: person anyway, So that music like it's funnel listen to

333
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: it's fun of like Gus locker room before the game

334
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: is you do need to get like a little bit

335
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: of energy. But as far as like locking in and

336
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: getting my mind right for a game, I need R

337
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: and B or have something happy, like I don't need

338
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: all that cussing.

339
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: And not try to.

Speaker 1: M hmm, okay, love me some cash bang. But even

343
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: his lyrics are a little like okay, it's a little

344
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: it gets a little aggressive.

345
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like the music.

346
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can tune out the lyrics.

347
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 2: Just listen to the music. Yeah.

348
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. When your dad was in the league, did you

349
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 3: like hang in the locker room at all? Or it

350
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 3: was family completely?

351
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: I mean I was so little. Yeah, I don't think

352
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: I didn't spend much time with him, like in the

353
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: locker room and behind like we had the family room.

354
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: But I was with my mom and my siblings.

355
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 2: I'm so fucking old though. I had a post of

356
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 2: your dad on my wall. Love that. Like I think

357
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,400

358
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but you and I for the Browns.

359
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: But I think that I think the poster was the

360
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 2: you know, the dunk contest when he won.

361
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 3: The reblock pump moment.

362
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it didn't the post didn't come come with rebox.

363
00:15:58,240 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 2: I think I got that poster with like some Jordan.

364
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 2: They gave me that postage.

365
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: That doesn't make sense.

366
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 2: It didn't make sense, but I was happy to have it.

367
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 2: But just you saying that I'm like shit, like I'm old.

Speaker 1: in Boston, so I don't even remember him playing in Boston.

370
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,840

00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: at the very end of his career. I was a

372

Speaker 1: My teammate or not my teammate, my friend came out

451
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 1: with us on Sunday. It was like our wrap party

452
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 1: for Athletes Unlimited. So like the season's over, right, everyone's

453
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: been like playing for five straight weeks, stressed out, everyone's tired,

454
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. So this was like kind of

455
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: everyone's like let loose moment. So like we was going

456
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: crazy and she's like, it's literally Sunday. Are you guys insane?

457
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, we don't pay attention to the days of

458
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: the week. Do we have an off day the next day? Yeah,

459
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 1: we're going out or we're doing something, Like we don't

460
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: care what day of the week it is. We got

461
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: to figure it out.

462
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 3: Is it less strict in the league than it probably

463
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 3: was at Duke? Oh for sure, I feel like more

464
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 3: strict than we had a time.

465
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 1: I had a great time at Duke and Durham, Like

466
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: we had so much fun. My teammates and I. We

467
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: were always out doing something. They weren't super strict at Duke,

468
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 1: but like obviously like everyone is watching. But Duke is

469
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 1: such a small school, so there was only one bar

470
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: that everybody went to. It was eating and up. It's

471
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: called Shooters naturally, it's like in this big bar, so

472
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 1: like that's where everybody was at Wednesdays and Saturdays, and

473
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: if you weren't at shooters, you were at home.

474
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,239
Speaker 2: Coach Coach K lives on. I heard he lives on

475
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 2: like in like the woods near campus. Like he has

476
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 2: this crazy house in the woods.

477
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: I've never been to Coach K's house, but I could

478
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 1: believe that there's some mansion in the durham Ford.

479
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, like he has like a it's like in the forest,

480
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 2: has this crazy I think Dante Jones was telling me

481
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 2: that a few years ago.

482
00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: Like I believe that.

483
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 2: I believe razy house in the forest, like I believe

484
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 2: it in trees. And then you just see Coach K's house.

485
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's like this big trail like in the back

486
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: of Duke. The boys team used to have to like

487
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: run some of their conditioning tests back there. They're like

488
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: this big mile, Like.

489
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 3: Zion needs to go back.

00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 4: I don't believe he's he's he looks he looks a

491
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 4: lot healthier. He does look he looks better now, Yeah,

00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: Were you weird?

494
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 3: Were you there at the same time as I left?

495
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: When they got there they got got there.

496
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 3: Did you have much interaction with Coach K at all?

497
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, he was always in the weight room so

498
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: I always used to see him around the gym, very nice.

499
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: He was really cool. We shared it. He scared me

500
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: at first, but like, so we have the big facility,

501
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,199
Speaker 1: the practice facility, so we shared the weight room with

502
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: the men's team. We shared the courts, and then we

503
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: shared the training room. But like obviously we had different

504
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: practice times, but we would like our locker rooms were

505
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: like right next to each other, so like we would

506
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: see them and all the coaches, like all the time.

507
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 2: Have you ever thought about uh any doing anything music

508
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,600

511
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: It's been so interesting to me. I watched those videos

512
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 1: on YouTube with the producers when they break down how

513
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 1: they created a beat. I love those videos, but I

514
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: have no idea what any I don't know what any

515
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: of them are talking about.

516
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 3: I mean with AI now, you can just tell it

517
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 3: what you want.

518
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: I would love to learn how to be a producer,

519
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: and I want to rap on a song, but someone

520
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: would have to write a rap for me.

521
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: Chat GVT. Yeah, Eli Jello just did it, like you

522
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 2: couldn't do the same thing.

523
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: Were you a fan? Of that song.

524
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 2: I hate that. I just wanted to do Were you

525
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 2: a fan of the song? Yes?

526
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: I loved it?

527
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 2: No you did, Lex, Don't.

528
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 3: You need to accept that we like that.

529
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: I root everything Ball family.

530
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 2: Okay, now that's that's totally different, because I do too.

531
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I support you, clearly do not.

532
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 2: We got to.

533
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 3: Direct email from the Ball family that it's not coming on.

534
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 2: When it comes to I just feel like it's certain things.

535
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 2: I just feel like it's certain things we just should

536
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 2: stay out of. Just stay out of it. I support

537
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 2: I think LaVar ball Is. He should have a statue

538
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: in California. I think the Ball family. I think that

539
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 2: what they represent hard work and all of that getting

540
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 2: their family to a certain level. Yeah, I think that's great.

541
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 2: I salute that when they were doing the sneakers, I

542
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 2: thought that was a bold move. I respected the move.

543
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 2: I think they just weren't ready for that, you know,

544
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 2: that monster of the sneaker industry. But that's okay. I

545
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 2: love the fact that they tried it. But now when

546
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 2: you start talking about rapping and making music, why they

547
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 2: just used.

548
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: A little bit of song, went crazy like that, Like

549
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: what because anything in the music than I am for

550
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 1: me like when things go viral, I try to like

551
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: deep deep dive into like what's going on. Like that's

552
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: a sociologist in me. That's what went to school for

553
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,360
Speaker 1: what is going on in the world that makes this

554
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: particular moment like go crazy.

555
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 2: See, I think people what's going on. I think people

556
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 2: don't understand of just having a like a viral moment.

557
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 2: If we understood exactly how many people just are not

558
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 2: engaged in our world and our algorithm on social media,

559
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 2: like you would realize that in the grand scheme of

560
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 2: the world, that record is not what you think it

561
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 2: is just because of what you follow on your social media.

562
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 2: It's not that. So I'm just listening to it, like

563
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 2: just the music of it, and I'm like, first of all,

564
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 2: he's rapping like he's from the South, he's from Chino Hills, California.

565
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 2: This sounds like early cash money, Yeah, hot boys. Like

566
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 2: so that's why I say chat GBT because to me,

567
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: it feels like somebody just went to the studio and said,

568
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 2: let's try to get as close to hot Boys cash

569
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 2: Money era as we possibly can. And I heard it

570
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 2: and I'm just like, it just doesn't feel it doesn't

571
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 2: feel like an authentic, real song to me at all.

572
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: No, it definitely felt like a viral moment type situation.

573
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 1: It worked, but he performed it right.

574
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 2: Terrible.

575
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: Is it he going to like Coachell or something now

576
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: too or something festival?

577
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 3: Let me, but he'll fitting it Rolling Loud for sure

578
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 3: with shitty performers.

579
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 1: I've never been to a Rolling Loud.

580
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 3: I respect what Rolling Loud has John and like, I

581
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 3: would go if we were interviewing people, but it's just

582
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 3: too overwhelming of young people on drugs many and I

583
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 3: would my social anxiety. I would have a panic attack.

584
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: There's too much.

585
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: At some point I would just be mad all the time.

586
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,199
Speaker 1: I can't believe people stand that close to other people

587
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: in the heat outdoors.

588
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 2: Everybody's on drug the bathroom, yourself, you just let let

589
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 2: it happen.

590
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 1: Disgust nothing, There's nothing about a music festival that is appealing.

591
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 2: It's it's probably one of the most overrated experiences ever.

592
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I've heard.

593
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 3: I mean, some festivals aren't, but that one in particular,

594
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 3: I think it's just too overwhelmed. It's I think it's

595
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 3: the only excuse that like sixteen year old white kids

596
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: can take Molly without their parents knowing and use the

597
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 3: N word all in one event. Yeah, a couple of

598
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 3: everything that they've wanted to do. They can stream with

599
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 3: impunity in a long hair and no.

600
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: One will say that seems insane but tweaker.

601
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 3: This was as of an hour ago. The Billboard has

602
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 3: made over six hunder grand and just streaming. It's only

603
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 3: been a few weeks. He's gonna recoup that deal.

604
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: That's amazing.

605
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 3: That's crazy, and that's what out the performances.

Speaker 1: or you're like gonna chiy and make like normal music.

609
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 3: I think that's normal music.

610
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like, is he gonna try and embody

611
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,720

00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: To sneak and watch that movie.

617
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 2: My mama, let me watch Most Wanted. Why you couldn't

618
00:26:58,520 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 2: watch that?

619
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: There's a lot of things I could have watched growing up.

620
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: You act like it was a Casino or something I

621
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: could have watched that I couldn't watch. None of the

622
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 1: shows on MTV like Next Room, Raiders.

623
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: That classic show, class Classics.

624
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: Just I just snuck and watched all the shows on MTV.

625
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 3: And so you were in a really strict household.

626
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: It was like, yes, it was pretty Yeah, it was

627
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: pretty strict. But it was like I never like needed anything,

628
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: and then everything that I got like had like an

629
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: achievement attached to it, So like, oh, you want to

630
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: go hang out with your friends, you have to have

631
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: these grades. Oh you want a car, you need to

632
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: do this. So like I was to get in my car.

633
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 1: I got my first car my sophomore year of college.

634
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:42,920
Speaker 1: But the only way I got the car was if

635
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: I finished my senior year was straight a's and I

636
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: committed to a top twenty five program I respected.

637
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 3: I got that great and I mean it clearly worked

638
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 3: at w NBA.

639
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 2: So yeah, your strategy.

640
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, So like they programmed my mind like just my

641
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 1: life is just like a never ending checklists and if

642
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 1: I do something, then I'm gonna go reward myself.

643
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 2: So now as an adult, do you like.

644
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: That's what I did this morning? So I finished the

645
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 1: athletes Unlimited. I finished top ten and I went and

646
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 1: bout a Van Cleef necklace for myself.

647
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 3: This morning, like this is why I made her pay

648
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 3: for the bottle.

649
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: Like that, I like that you got a little tree.

650
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 3: It's Do you feel like you were pressured into basketball

651
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 3: or no?

652
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: Honestly, my dad did not. He was not very impressed

653
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:30,919
Speaker 1: by me when I was a kid. He was like,

654
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: you sure you want.

655
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 2: To That was more are you sure you are terrible?

656
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: I was like, yes, Dad, I want to just hang

657
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: out with you and be in the gym with you.

658
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: And then I got a little older and the work

659
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: ethic was there and the athleticism wasn't quite there yet.

660
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: So that's why he created me to be a really

661
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: good shooter, because he was like, if you grow a

662
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: little bit, if you don't grow, if you get faster,

663
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: you don't get faster, you're gonna be able to shoot

664
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: or you're gonna be fine. Then I ended up leaning

665
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: out a little bit. I got taller, I have long arms,

666
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: and the work ethic was already there. So once I

667
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: got eighth ninth grade, we were like, okay, like this

668
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: is something I want to do. He coached in the

669
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: WNBA for a few years, and then that's the first

670
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: time I was up close and personal with the w

671
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, no, I want to this

672
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: is what I want to do, Like, this is my

673
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: dream to be a WNBA player.

674
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 3: Who's your favorite player growing up?

675
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: So he coached the Orlando Miracle, which no longer exists.

676
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: They had a point guard. Her name was Shannon Johnson,

677
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 1: but her nickname was pee Wee, and she was my

678
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: favorite player growing up. And then Christy Tolliver was my

679
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: next favorite player. She went to Maryland. She's the reason

680
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: why I went to Maryland. We were teammates for a

681
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: year in LA, which was ridiculous, and I was like, yeah, yeah,

682
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: like the name of my podcast, but yeah, I know

683
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: a lot of shooters, a lot of point guards are

684
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: people that I enjoy watching and model my game after.

685
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 2: Are you a better shooter than your dad?

686
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: Now, yes, I am.

687
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 2: You said that with Coyle like you didn't even think

688
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 2: about it.

689
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: I told you there's not very many people.

690
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 2: I just said with Your dad is a pro Bowl

691
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 2: player too, so it's kind of like, you know, it's like,

692
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: all right, he got a bad hit, now he got

693
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 2: a yeah, because he's a little, you catch him on

694
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 2: the tail, and.

695
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 3: I exactly when was the first time you beat him

696
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 3: in one on one?

697
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: Never?

698
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, see to that.

699
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: We played one on one once when I was a

700
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: little younger and I could have beat him and I

701
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: missed my layup and I freaked out because I was

702
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: a kid like and then he went and scoring and

703
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: we never played again after that.

704
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 2: Did he have a dunk on you?

705
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 1: Probably, but probably like fun not like tomorrow.

706
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 3: Like I do that to tomorrow now with my with

707
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 3: my nerve food, you have to she can stand.

708
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 2: Bill's character.

709
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: To stand so you can dunk on them. It's crazy.

710
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's sarious.

711
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 2: So you had your career high against Phoenix a few

712
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 2: years ago. What were you listening to before that game?

713
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: What was I listening to? You know what's crazy? That

714
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: was right when I was really sick, So I don't

715
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,719
Speaker 1: know if I was even listening to him. I was

716
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: like struggling to be prepared for that game, like physically,

717
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: so the fact that I had the game that I

718
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: had that at that time, the way I was feeling

719
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: was insane. So I don't even think I was listening

720
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:14,959
Speaker 1: to music. I think I was just trying to like

721
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: get through really get through the day.

722
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: So the flu game aka hungover now it.

723
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: Was Yeah, and like probably like two weeks after that

724
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: was when I was out for the season. So battling through,

725
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 1: pushing through how to go out on a high note.

726
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: At least I was like, I don't know what's going on.

727
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:32,959
Speaker 2: Let it go.

728
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know what's going on. I

729
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm to be able to play again,

730
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: so let me at least like play until I physically can't.

731
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: And that's actually what happened. But in hindsight, that was

732
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: not a very smart thing to do for me.

733
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 2: Which one of your teammates can you remember? I know

734
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 2: you said you wear your headphones a lot when you're

735
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 2: around your teammates, But from what you can remember, who

736
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 2: has the worst taste in music?

737
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: They would probably say me, they as amazing as I love, like,

738
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: as amazing as my playlist is to me. If I

739
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: were to play in the locker room, they'd be like,

740
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: turn this ship off.

741
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm going to you have the worst.

742
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,600

Speaker 1: On his tour. I was very happy with his set

758
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,840

00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 2: that's a moment, like you have to see that. Being

785
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: on Gills Arena, How has it prepared you for your

786
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 2: for function? But yeah, for podcasting, Like how is it

787
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 2: with the guys sitting down every week?

788
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 1: I mean the my like journey within Gils has been

789
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: so funny because you know, we have the live chat,

790
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: so I'm getting like active feedback on my presence in

791
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 1: real time. So Yo looks at the chat during the show.

792
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,719
Speaker 1: So I don't know if people like realize that, like

793
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: he's he says things on purpose because he's reading the chat.

794
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, exactly, he reads the chat. Just

795
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 1: they're all reading the chat in real time. I stopped

796
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,359
Speaker 1: reading the chat. I stopped reading the comments because men

797
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,879
Speaker 1: are mean. But when I first got on the show,

798
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 1: they hated me, like hate him.

799
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 3: I mean, who is this girl?

800
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 1: She was like who is she? Like she's a player,

801
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: Like we didn't know. And we had a shootout and

802
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: I would beat everybody with.

803
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:31,720
Speaker 3: Gill you have to be specific.

804
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, we had a basketball shootout.

805
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 2: A little bit of both, like we just did.

806
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: To be clear funny as we had a basketball shootout

807
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: and I beat all the guys. I made it the farthest.

808
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 1: And then after that the chat was like, we love Lexi.

809
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 1: She's actually good at basketball. We don't care that she's

810
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: been in the w BA for six years. She beat

811
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 1: retired NBA players at.

812
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 3: Mid range jump shot here to defend the in cell chat,

813
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,479
Speaker 3: but beating Gilbert at a shootout is it? But say

814
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 3: gil could shoot?

815
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: And I'm like they had higher lowers on the game.

816
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 1: I'm like, y'all think that. Y'all really think gil is

817
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,479
Speaker 1: going to go ten for twenty five?

818
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 2: Like, I mean, Gilbert Arenas is a I mean, if

00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,479
Speaker 2: you my over under was low.

820
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 1: It was so disrespectful. They were like mine was like

00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: less than fifty percent. Really, Yeah, I was like, y'all

822
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,760
Speaker 1: are rude. Yeah, I made it to like the almost

823
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 1: the final round and then two of our two of

824
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: other people like went for the last round. But it

825
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 1: was fun. But yeah, I literally won the chat over

826
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: in the shootings.

827
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 2: Just just want to do They just want to see

828
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 2: that you you know what.

829
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: You like all these videos of me, all these accolades.

830
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: They're like, fuck that you outshot a bunch of forty

831
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 1: year old retired NBA guys.

832
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 2: You're her, Yeah, you're her.

833
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: You're her now we respect you. But it's been fun

834
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 1: and being around those guys has just been amazing.

835
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: Who has the worst music take on the show.

836
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: We don't even talk about music that more tastes or

837
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: taste m I don't know. I don't really know the

838
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 1: music that they all listened to, honestly, but I remember

839
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 1: when the Kendrick Drake stuff was going on, they all

840
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 1: had like a lot of opinions about that, and ultimately

841
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: we were like, we play sports, we don't care about

842
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:20,840
Speaker 1: rap beef.

843
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 2: Y'all don't know music. Yeah, it's one thing to.

844
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 1: Say, right, but they never get worried.

845
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 3: Sitting next to Gill, he's one of my favorite personalities. Like,

846
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 3: even before he started podcasting, anything he would do on

847
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 3: the internet was the ridiculous and anytime there was an interview,

848
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 3: anytime he just spoke, I'm stopping what I'm doing to

849
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 3: see ye Giel was about to do, especially if it

850
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 3: has to do with Nick Young.

851
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: Those two together have been hilarious. When they brought Nick on,

852
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: I was like, is he just going to be on sometimes?

853
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: But he sat on that couch the first time I

854
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 1: was there. When he was there, I was like, I

855
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: wanted to cure. Every day they're back and forth, their

856
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: bands are, their stories like it has like change, like

857
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 1: the cadence of the show. I think having them two.

858
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 3: On, I thought when I became a father, I'd be

859
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 3: a little more gentle with certain things. I still watch

860
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 3: the clips of Gil abusing Nick Young's kids, and I

861
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 3: still think it's the flash thing on fucking need that.

862
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: The way they talk about playing the kids Madden video games,

863
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, do y'all ever grow up?

864
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:17,359
Speaker 2: No?

865
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 1: No, they don't never don't grow up? Like I'm just

866
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: with a bunch of grown ass kids all the time.

867
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: I would say, Kenyan is probably the only one that

868
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 1: is not.

869
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 2: Seems to be the most and yeah.

870
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: That's why we always sit next to each other. Like

871
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 1: here there you go.

872
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, kenyan from a lot of games. Nah, he ain't

873
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,319
Speaker 2: got a lot of play playing Kenyani if you know

874
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 2: him from playing? No, no, he never did, Yeah, never do.

875
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: They've been great, it's been really fun.

876
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 3: What's what's been the wildest off mic take in pre

877
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 3: production or when you guys wrap it's okay.

878
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, to be honest, I don't. I'm

879
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: not really in any of like those conversations in pre production.

880
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: I'm like their little like angel baby, so like they

881
00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 1: keep me out of like all the nonsense. Like they

882
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 1: have a group chat. I'm not in it. I don't

883
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 1: want to be in it. I just show up, I'm

884
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: myself and I leave. And I think that's what makes

885
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: our chemistry so good. It's like I literally just like

886
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: drop in. I drop out, Like when they go to games,

887
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: when they go to All Star, like, I don't go talk,

888
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: stay out, I stay out of it. When they have

889
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: the strip club conversations on the couch, I'm just like

890
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: they gave me a bullhorn. That's my contribution to those conversations.

891
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: All right, too much? Not too much.

892
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 3: I do think it would be great content for you

893
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 3: to go to the Strip club with Gil.

894
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 2: Oh my, I would tune in.

895
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 1: Did you guys see the conversation that they had about

896
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: competing with other men for bottles? What do y'all think

897
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: about that? So basically it was studying, like that's what

898
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 1: can you It's a pretty gay what can you? Said?

899
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 1: But Gil was on that, he was dying on that hill,

900
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 1: like I go to the club to make everybody else

901
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: in the club look broke, and I don't care what

902
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 1: else is going on. So if he buys ten bottles,

903
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: I'm buying twenty bottles. If you bout thirty bollles, I'm

904
00:38:58,760 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: buying four.

905
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,919
Speaker 3: Only one that is the club owner, right, like.

906
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,359
Speaker 1: The the only one. And it was like, you guys

907
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 1: are all losers, And I was like, I don't buy

908
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: bottles in the club, so I don't. I don't have

909
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: anything to do.

910
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,439
Speaker 2: I mean for athletes especially somebody. But it's it's hillars

911
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 2: because I remember the story Gil was saying about, uh,

912
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 2: he go to the strip club, spend all this money

913
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 2: and then the next day reporters cards stolen, and then

914
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,320
Speaker 2: it ends up getting all the money back. Like definitely,

915
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 2: I thought that was incredible for him to say that.

916
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: But I mean, you know, as athletes, it is a

917
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,840
Speaker 2: it's a lot of ego. Yeah, with athletes, especially if

918
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,439
Speaker 2: you know we're playing in the city and let's say

919
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 2: Lebron and the Lakers come to town and then they're

920
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 2: in the club, and it's like, okay, they're visiting, but

921
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 2: we're in the city every week. Like if the Lakers

922
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 2: are in the club and you know we're in the

923
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 2: club as well, I could see how it's like, yeah,

924
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 2: y'all not gonna come to our city and just go crazy,

925
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 2: turn it upside down and fly out to more Like

926
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 2: now we like, we got we got to make sure

927
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 2: we So I understand it from an athlete competitition, that's

928
00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:00,439
Speaker 2: still really no, I get it, but it's like it's

929
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 2: one million attached to a man's ego.

930
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 1: The first time I personally experienced that is the year

931
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 1: U n C boys basketball won the championship and they

932
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: came to Shooters to celebrate.

933
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 2: Oh man, So.

934
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: Obviously our men's team were like, what the hell y'all

935
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 1: doing here? We were like, whoa, you wouldn't see we

936
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: was partying. We just wanted to party, don't y'all can't

937
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: you don't care that might be the right here.

938
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 3: While he was at Duke, you were saying, go un se.

939
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: We was partying. Congratulations guys. Where the party at y'all?

940
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: Y'all in Duam they pulled up. We didn't invite them,

941
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: they showed up. It's I'm actually surprised that they let

942
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: them inside.

943
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was asking how did they even let that happen?

944
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 1: I don't know because they won.

945
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 2: And nothing and nothing popped off because that's the Duke

946
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 2: is a real like.

947
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,280
Speaker 1: Right, no, literally, they wouldn't even let the Duke guys

948
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 1: go to Chapel Hill.

949
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 3: That makes sense.

950
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 1: Like the UNC guys was always in Durham at Shooters,

951
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,399
Speaker 1: So shooters a like don't get a free for all,

952
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: like I told you eighteen and up, so like everybody

953
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 1: was in there.

954
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 3: To me, what it sounds like, Duke is pussy? Yeah,

955
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 3: just what it sounds like.

956
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if we wouldn't.

957
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: I remember that because we were like, what are y'all

958
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 1: doing here? Like go back to Chapel Hill. But like

959
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: Chapel Hill was like definitely more I would have say upscale,

960
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 1: but they're like more strict because they had like actual

961
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 1: bars and clubs and restaurants and Chapel Hill, and then

962
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 1: we just had the barn dirty.

963
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:32,920
Speaker 3: Ass to leave Chapel Hill. And like Durham is not

964
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 3: hood per se, but there's some nasty.

965
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 2: Duke is like.

966
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 1: Parked in the middle of the hood. I had no idea,

967
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,960
Speaker 1: just drop right in the middle.

968
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 2: Who are your Give me your top five players whose

969

Speaker 1: because he.

985
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,200

Speaker 1: Yeah, he might have the best mixtape high school mixtape ever.

987
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 2: He's one of your one of your coach, Brandon Jennings,

988
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 2: He's his high school mixtape is is one of the

989
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 2: legendary high.

990
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: School remember those like everybody got but everybody got one now,

991
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: so it's not the same. You got to be like

992
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 1: one of them once to get a mixtape. Now everybody

993
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:55,800
Speaker 1: got a damn.

994
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 3: There's a camera right here video everyone.

995
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone got one.

996
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 2: That was like it. But Austin's all in Rivers his

997
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 2: high school mixtape. I remember watching it crazy and I

998
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 2: was like, damn, like he's he's a problem.

999
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 3: For Brandons is probably the first one I remember when

1000
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 3: I was in.

1001
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 2: His his Probably he's probably the first one that kind

1002
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 2: of like everybody was like. That was like as far

1003
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 2: as I can remember, first high school mixtape where everybody

1004
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 2: saw it and was like, oh, that's great that tape

1005
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 2: was in That was nuts.

1006
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: The fifth one, I want to say, Bronnie. Okay, I

1007
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: love Bronnie. I don't know why everyone got to smoke

1008
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 1: with Bronnie, but.

1009
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 3: He loved Bronnie for for what? Because like, as a human.

1010
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 1: I just love that he's been able to just be successful.

1011
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 3: I think he was deserving of the fifty fifth pick.

1012
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a fifty fifth pick, and that's why

1013
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 2: I stand we we who else? Whose who would have

1014
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 2: you had, who did you want?

1015
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: History of NBA has made a team money.

1016
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 3: I am all the way with Nepple babies. I think

1017
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 3: it's amazing the owners are doing it. Why can't Brown?

1018
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 3: But he's not the fifty fifth that it was.

1019
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm fine with it. Yes it was. He was

1020
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:06,080
Speaker 2: at NEPO pick.

1021
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: We know that.

1022
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,840
Speaker 2: But I'm not if the Lakers would have had this

1023
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 2: third pick and they picked like, all right, man, that's

1024
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 2: a little different that what we're doing, Like we had

1025
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 2: a chance to go get you know what I'm saying,

1026
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 2: like maybe somebody who's gonna diffranchised.

1027
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 1: It is literally almost not drafted.

1028
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 2: Exactly, so why not?

1029
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:24,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, he shouldn't.

1030
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 2: And and and here's here's the other reason why to me,

1031
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 2: that pick doesn't really matter. They ended up getting Luca

1032
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 2: in the same.

1033
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,120
Speaker 1: Year, right, good karma.

1034
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,880
Speaker 2: It doesn't even it doesn't matter who first of all,

1035
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 2: like who.

1036
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: All the time they knew Luca was coming.

1037
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, it doesn't matter who you pick. We know

1038
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,239
Speaker 2: we got Luca coming in joy.

1039
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 3: Wait, Bronni was the chess piece for Lucas.

1040
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't know I'm saying. You do know what

1041
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 2: I'm saying, is it doesn't matter who they did not

1042
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:56,879
Speaker 2: draft at fifty five.

1043
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: They have Luca.

1044
00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 2: Now they have Lucas. Doesn't matter who the fifty fifth

1045
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 2: pick is.

1046
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 3: I mean, according to y'all, theydn't need him because they

1047
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:03,440
Speaker 3: got Brownie.

1048
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 2: No, no, I didn't say that. I think that the

1049
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 2: Luca pick was legendary. We needed that. But yeah, now

1050
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 2: the fifty fifth pick really doesn't matter when you're getting

1051
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 2: Luca in the same year.

1052
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: About it, Like, but why again, why not let Bronnie

1053
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 1: and bron play together. They're making history, they were making money.

1054
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 1: It was they dragged it, not Bronnie and bron I

1055
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 1: think that they have handled it well, but I think

1056
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: the media drag. I think they all dragged it.

1057
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 2: Like he had to be sure they got that moment

1058
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 2: on tape. They had to. That's the documentary, Yeah for sure, Yeah,

1059
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,360
Speaker 2: absolute definitely going to them having the Griffies court side

1060
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 2: and that whole thing. It was a Nike.

1061
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:40,719
Speaker 3: Documentary and listen, I don't want to sound like a

1062
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 3: hater because I think what Bronnie is doing is way

1063
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 3: better than what Michael Jordan's son is doing.

1064
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: So I just recently when it comes to that, how

1065
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,720
Speaker 1: old is Michael Jordan's son right now acting acting the Damn.

1066
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 2: For He gives thirty something right? Yeah, I mean I

1067
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 2: love the Trophy Room collect w A. I think the

1068
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 2: Trophy Room collection isn't credible. He had such promise in space, Jim.

1069
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 2: I thought he was going places like he found the

1070
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,880
Speaker 2: Short Sea, did everything right? Can't even snitch on the

1071
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 2: Looney Tunes and tell her didn't tell his mom nothing?

1072
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: Sure, did it?

1073
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 2: So? Lex? What's some of your music predictions for twenty

1074
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 2: twenty five?

00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:15,240
Speaker 1: Music prediction?

00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:15,719

00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, like.

Speaker 2: Who was some of the artists is looking forward to

1079
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 2: hearing that?

1080
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 1: WOLB Drake. I think Drake has started.

1081
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,800
Speaker 2: His sexy songs for you.

1082
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, okay anything Drake puts out, I love.

1083
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that about me.

1084
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 3: Did you feel disrespected as a woman when you were

1085
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 3: listening to the songs.

1086
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 1: Drake is like, he's just different. I just enjoy his music.

1087
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 1: I didn't initially like the album that much first listen,

1088
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 1: but after I listened to it a few more times,

1089
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: it grew on me. Which Drake albums. That's typically how

1090
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: yeah people consume Drake. They hate it and then they're like, yeah,

1091
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: it's not that bad and then now everybody's seen.

1092
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 2: It fircially coming out of last year. Like I think

1093
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 2: people were listening to this with more of a critical ear.

1094
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like, odd, let's see, I'm gonna go

1095
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna shift to my pop side, you know. In

1096
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:09,719
Speaker 1: sync backshe Boys, all of them, christanguelera, I feel like

1097
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 1: maybe a Britney Spears re emergence might happen somewhere.

1098
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 2: Imagine they would have gone to it.

1099
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 3: I mean, she a resurgence will happen. I'm not saying I.

1100
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 2: Don't know in what way.

1101
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know what.

1102
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 2: Brittany popped out every now and then.

1103
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: Because Christiangele looks amazing, is performing again and one of

1104
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,399
Speaker 1: the best voices of all. Yeah, justin Timberlake. In sync

1105
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,440
Speaker 1: Backs boys are all coming out the word works. I

1106
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 1: feel like this little that whatever era you would call that,

1107
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:36,799
Speaker 1: they're like all kind of like creeping back.

1108
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 3: I mean, I love I hope. I hope Brittany gets

1109
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 3: to a good mental space where she's able to do that.

1110
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 1: I've read her book. It was really sad. I hope

1111
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 1: that she's able to like, yeah, the stuff that.

1112
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,480
Speaker 2: She went through with her you know, finances, business and

1113
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,360
Speaker 2: her dad and everything control and everything that.

1114
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 1: Was that was really sad.

1115
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:57,320
Speaker 3: I agree with y'all, But is it finally okay to

1116
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 3: say maybe her dad had a point?

1117
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I see why you say that, because obviously

1118
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 2: the videos Brittany's been posting, people kind of questioned her

1119
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 2: mental health and things like that. But I'm also on

1120
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 2: the side of I think somewhere in there maybe Brittany's

1121
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 2: playing into that.

1122
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I mean listening to the book, because we.

1123
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 2: Don't hear nothing about Brittany, like in real life, Like

1124
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 2: if right now something breaks, like Britney Spears was here

1125
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 2: and did that, we don't hear.

1126
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 1: I mean, the last thing we heard about Brittany was

1127
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 1: when Wenby's people smacked her in Vegas.

1128
00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that was ridiculous.

1129
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 2: Security guard.

1130
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that was insane. I was like, this is

1131
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,880
Speaker 1: this is how we're doing Britney Spears right now. Listening

1132
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:39,919
Speaker 1: to the book, it was like it broke my heart.

1133
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: Was sad because she was thrown into this lifestyle so

1134
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 1: young and so early, and people just were constantly taking

1135
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 1: advantage of her over and over and over. But it

1136
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,360
Speaker 1: got to a point like me and my best friendly

1137
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: listened to it on audio book together, like we were

1138
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:53,560
Speaker 1: on a road trip kind of going to Palm Springs

1139
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 1: one day. We really, let's just listen to the Britney

1140
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: Spears at something like we had to stop sometimes and

1141
00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:01,239
Speaker 1: be like, girl, you're like grown, like you're going to

1142
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 1: keep letting people mistreat you and use and abuse you.

1143
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 1: But again, like she didn't know anything else. He really

1144
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 1: had no friends, her family was trash, So I'm just like,

1145
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 1: was just I don't really know how. I didn't really

1146
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,239
Speaker 1: have an opinion after because I was like a little

1147
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: bit more confused after listening to the book. I didn't

1148
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,440
Speaker 1: like really understand her at all because she's still obviously

1149
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:26,360
Speaker 1: not okay. The situation is still really messed up. So

1150
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:28,279
Speaker 1: I'm like, they let this book come out and made

1151
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,879
Speaker 1: everybody on her opposing side look crazy, but she's still

1152
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 1: in the same situation she's in kind of, So I'm like, yeah,

1153
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 1: where do you want us to go from here to

1154
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: like support Britney Spears or like help her, because I'm like, Okay,

1155
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 1: she released the book and everyone was like.

1156
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,720
Speaker 3: My gay, yeah cool. Was it a Netflix, stock or Hulu?

1157
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 3: It was maybe during the pandemic.

1158
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 1: I think it was Whulu that was very sad. But

1159
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,400
Speaker 1: it's like they've been like putting all these things out

1160
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,280
Speaker 1: there for like people to like help her, and everyone's

1161
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 1: just kind of like, hmmm, we're gonna just stay away

1162
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:01,479
Speaker 1: from that. And I I don't know why I should

Speaker 1: money from people.

1207
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:56,640

00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 3: So I like like, I like, I just sitting there

1248
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 3: stretching with my leg up, and they let it happen

1249
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,200
Speaker 3: and didn't say shit, only to amongst themselves, and then

1250
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 3: by like the fourth time, fat they're like I was

1251
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:55,359
Speaker 3: a calisthetics Like I was mortified and in my head

1252
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 3: for the rest of high school.

1253
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,560
Speaker 2: Just any time I was a nervous thing to do,

1254
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,879
Speaker 2: like I didn't know what to do. Absolutely, that's just nerves.

1255
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:02,759
Speaker 1: Walking back and forth.

1256
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 3: That was like the scariest thing in the world when

1257
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,359
Speaker 3: you were going through puberty to talk to a girl.

1258
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,960
Speaker 1: I will say, when I do get approached in person

1259
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,399
Speaker 1: by men, I'm always so nice to them because it's

1260
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:15,919
Speaker 1: not easy.

1261
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 2: How do guys approach you? Like, what do they say

1262
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:19,640
Speaker 2: when they like approach you?

1263
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:25,439
Speaker 1: It depends because it depends on the setting. But even

1264
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,279
Speaker 1: like I'll say, my most recent encounter with a very

1265
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 1: he was very sweet, but it was after one of

1266
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 1: our games, and we do autograph sessions. Like there's like

1267
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 1: a line of people when you do autographs, and we

1268
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:39,280
Speaker 1: walked down and everybody gets an autograph way.

1269
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:41,400
Speaker 2: Nobody.

1270
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, well this is actually a story about me.

00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 1: like season ticket holders to do pictures or whatever. It

1274
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: was me and another player and we were standing there

1275
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,640
Speaker 1: and this guy like walks up like a gate. He's

1276
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:56,560

1335
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,520

1339
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:32,560
Speaker 1: I personally I would enjoy it, like in the confines

1340
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: of a basketball game. And yeah, I feel like it

1341

Speaker 2: say nothing.

1345
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,920
Speaker 1: I will say like a game in Nashville that Titans

1350
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 3: I was like, who it is you're going crazy on

1351
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 3: the court because there's dude, the screen on.

1352
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 2: The left on the floor, like you set the screen

1353
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:01,760
Speaker 2: over here.

1354
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,520
Speaker 1: But that was it, Like I was like, oh, that's

1355
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 1: nice that they're here. Nice to look at your in

1356
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:05,800
Speaker 1: the game.

1357
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 3: And she was lights out when I was there. That's

1358
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:07,919
Speaker 3: all I'm saying.

1359
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 2: Okay, because.

1360
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,720
Speaker 3: Y'all got smoked.

1361
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 2: Game, you can't go to no more games.

1362
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:17,959
Speaker 3: I was not their shoe.

1363
00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 2: No, who did y'all play?

1364
00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 1: I don't remember.

1365
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,400
Speaker 3: I don't remember either. You had like three or four

1366
00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 3: threes though he was cooking. Yes, the rest of the

1367
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 3: team was it? We we.

1368
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 2: That is so funny. I thought that I kind of

1369
00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 2: figured that women would like kind of want like guys.

1370
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 3: I feel like the young as of the league definitely

1371
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 3: run through them, like I think they got them. Yeah,

1372
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,480
Speaker 3: that probably, Yeah, that is it's more of a they

1373
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,480
Speaker 3: have their like I think they were the strap under

1374
00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 3: the shorts.

1375
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, the game with the strap that again, Yeah, I

1376
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:52,920
Speaker 2: get it. I mean it checks out. It kind of

1377
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:57,120
Speaker 2: makes it. I get it. The All Star Weekend last year,

1378
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:01,240
Speaker 2: for the three point shootout, they had Steph and Sabrina

1379
00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 2: Sabrina shooting.

1380
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 1: Uh.

1381
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 2: Do you think that that's something that they should implement

1382
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:08,400
Speaker 2: moving forward into All Star? Wee can having a w

1383
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 2: NBA player versus an NBA player.

1384
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was fun. It was was just

1385
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 1: the wrong guy to go against, but she was close,

1386
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,280
Speaker 1: Like that was like the best outcome we could have

1387
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 1: had being close.

1388
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 2: We think Steph went full throughout.

1389
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:24,600
Speaker 1: I mean, like I said, that was like the best

1390
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: outcome that we could have had. That's not go crazy.

1391
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:30,959
Speaker 1: Brina is still holding her own but ultimately winning, because

1392
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 1: if Sabrina ended up winning, just the discourse would have

1393
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:37,120
Speaker 1: been insufferable. The fact that she like almost won and

1394
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: was still very impressive, that was like best case scenario.

1395
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 1: So I don't know if like that's just like a

1396
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,440
Speaker 1: one time moment and we just got to like remember

1397
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 1: that as being a good moment. If they do move

1398
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,120
Speaker 1: forward with it, I think they should alternate, so like

1399
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 1: one year they'll do it NBA All Star and then

1400
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 1: not do WB All Star, and then the next year

1401
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:59,040
Speaker 1: they'll do an NBA All Stark, just alternated. If they

1402
00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 1: really give a fun about, you know, increasing viewership and

1403
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 1: partnership between the w NBA, Like they need to be

1404
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:07,280
Speaker 1: very intentional with how they do it.

1405
01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:09,880
Speaker 3: What do you think the WNBA is missing as far

1406
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,960
Speaker 3: as I don't want to say marketing per se, but

1407
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:13,760
Speaker 3: getting more eyes.

1408
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 2: On the league.

1409
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think and I think they've did a better

1410
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 1: job this past year, especially with this fork, as they're

1411
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 1: like showing more of us and more of our personalities

1412
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 1: are able to shine through on the court off the court,

1413
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: with our marketing stuff, our brand deals. It's not really

1414
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,640
Speaker 1: frowned upon anymore. Because I remember when I first got

1415
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 1: into the league. I've always loved social media. I've always

1416
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,320
Speaker 1: loved taking pictures, and it was like a problem when

1417
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 1: I got into the league. She's not focused, doesn't care

1418
01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 1: about basketball. She cares about is social media and taking

1419
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 1: pictures by the pool and all this weird stuff.

1420
01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,160
Speaker 3: It takes one second to take a photus in one

1421
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:50,640
Speaker 3: second second second to post like it was ridiculous.

1422
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:53,360
Speaker 1: Hat a YouTube channel that they made fun of when

1423
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,320
Speaker 1: I came in, Like it was just a lot. So

1424
01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 1: kind of just letting players be who they are, I

1425
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:02,440
Speaker 1: think has been the biggest change. And then yeah, allowing

1426
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 1: these rookies that come in with all this college energy

1427
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: and hype. They have to be on the they have

1428
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:11,200
Speaker 1: to be on the floor. So this is obviously that

1429
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,840
Speaker 1: was like the most hype of rookie class has ever had.

1430
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 1: But we've had very talented rookie classes in the past,

1431
01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 1: but like you get to your team and you right

1432
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 1: on the bench, and now your college fans are now

1433
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,560
Speaker 1: tapped back into the college because they don't know where

1434
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:27,920
Speaker 1: you are, where you're playing, and you jet off overseas.

1435
01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 1: Now it's like all momentum you had is gone. So

1436
01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:34,520
Speaker 1: I think now we're bridging that gap between like college

1437
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 1: fandom to the pros, and I think that's been like

1438
01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 1: the missing link, I think so. I think this year

1439
01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:41,080
Speaker 1: was a really good example of.

1440
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:46,960
Speaker 2: I think Caitlyn, Kaitlyn and Angel Rees coming in together,

1441
01:01:48,120 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 2: everything that happened obviously between them on the collegiate level, yeah,

1442
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,840
Speaker 2: and then coming into the w NBA together, I think

1443
01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 2: a lot of that parlayed over into the league. I

1444
01:01:57,040 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 2: thought it was great for the league for sure. How

1445
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:04,800
Speaker 2: how did you feel about the criticism if you felt

1446
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 2: like it was criticism that Kaitlyn Clark was receiving throughout

1447
01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 2: the season. You know a lot of people were saying

1448
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 2: that teams were kind of targeting her and kind of like,

1449
01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:16,240
Speaker 2: you know, being more physical with her. Yeah, I thought

1450
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,280
Speaker 2: it was a sign of respect. I think they only

1451
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,360
Speaker 2: do that when they respect you as a player and

1452
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 2: know that you're a threat on the floor. But how

1453
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 2: did you feel like just playing and then looking at it.

1454
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean when I know when I when we

1455
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 1: played her, she was like number one on the scouting report,

1456
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: Like you're not going to deny how talented she is.

1457
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 1: And I think people did underrate like her overall play

1458
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 1: making ability and they just hyper focused on her scoring,

1459
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 1: which she's a very elite scorer, but the way she

1460
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:45,960
Speaker 1: makes everybody around her better is like the best part

1461
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 1: of her game. So like she's literally the head of

1462
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:51,400
Speaker 1: the snake. So I think that everybody received a lot

1463
01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: of weird criticism this year. I only played fourteen games,

1464
01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 1: so like I kind of and I wasn't really doing

1465
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:00,880
Speaker 1: much because I was still kind of so I was like,

1466
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 1: kind of I kind of avoided all of that weird

1467
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,440
Speaker 1: this course going on because I wasn't playing, so I

1468
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,400
Speaker 1: really just was watching it and looking at it from

1469
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 1: a very like objective point of view because I was

1470
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 1: kind of out of it. I think now that we

1471
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,440
Speaker 1: just have more eyes, it just comes with more criticisms

1472
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 1: from people that don't know what they're talking about. We

1473
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,200
Speaker 1: see it on and other leagues with other athletes, So

1474
01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:22,080
Speaker 1: I think us as wn BA players just have to

1475
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 1: like we have to ignore it. We have to rise

1476
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,480
Speaker 1: above it. And that's easier said than done. But that's

1477
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,000
Speaker 1: what happens when you have more eyes, you have more viewers,

1478
01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:32,600
Speaker 1: you have more opinions. People are betting on our games

1479
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: and like that. It's a whole different conversation of how

1480
01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 1: that has shifted sports culture and stuff. So I think

1481
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:41,440
Speaker 1: everybody handled it well though, because I think everybody elevated

1482
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:44,080
Speaker 1: their level of play and we retained you know, a

1483
01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:46,120
Speaker 1: lot of those new fans, and I know a lot

1484
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,680
Speaker 1: of players now are getting their flowers and they have

1485
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 1: you know, a new fan bases that they didn't have

1486
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 1: prior to this rookie class because they came ready to play.

1487
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1488
01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:59,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think after going to your game, I think

1489
01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 3: we had a conversation on the next episode after that.

1490
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:07,560
Speaker 3: Where the experience is great. Where I think it does

1491
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 3: lack a bit is in some brand partnership with a

1492
01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 3: female rapper, like I think, because female rap is where

1493
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 3: it is in dominating right men, right now, Why a

1494
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:21,320
Speaker 3: Meg or Glarilla or somebody isn't like the brand ambassador

1495
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 3: or creative director of the WNBA is beyond me. No

1496
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:28,680
Speaker 3: pun That's a layup to get people like sort of

1497
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:32,560
Speaker 3: what Hove does with the halftime show, but somebody when

1498
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:35,880
Speaker 3: it comes to nationally televised games, they can focus on

1499
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 3: halftime show entertainment, bringing certain rappers to the game. Like

1500
01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:41,959
Speaker 3: I think, just with where hip hop is with women,

1501
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 3: I don't get why the WNBA is not just.

1502
01:04:44,640 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 1: Like us even consulting or anything like using that. Again,

1503
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:51,480
Speaker 1: that's probably expensive, so I think that's probably part of it.

1504
01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: But I think the w is heading in the right direction.

1505
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:57,680
Speaker 1: We're in the middle of our negotiations with our new

1506
01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:01,600
Speaker 1: collective bargaining agreement, and we had a meeting in Nashville

1507
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 1: with all the W players that were playing in Athletes

1508
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: Unlimited and the things that we're fighting for like higher salaries,

1509
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,960
Speaker 1: pensions for retired players, health benefits for retired players, like

1510
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:14,600
Speaker 1: just things that we weren't able to get to in

1511
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 1: the last CBA because the one before that was so

1512
01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,120
Speaker 1: messed up. So I think, you know, the WNBA, obviously

1513
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:23,080
Speaker 1: it's going to be a battle. Hopefully we can find

1514
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 1: a happy medium. But I think it's like heatted in

1515
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:27,000
Speaker 1: the right direction for sure.

1516
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I promise I'm not trying to get you

1517
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 3: to shit on the WNBA I'm really just asking this

1518
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 3: as a professional athlete. Do you feel like the league

1519
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 3: takes care of its players? Because I feel like the

1520
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 3: NFL does a horrible job. I think now players active

1521
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 3: and retired players.

1522
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 1: We have work to do with retired players, and I

1523
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 1: think that's why it's been one of our focus in

1524
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,440
Speaker 1: these new CBA negotiations is how can we take care

1525
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,440
Speaker 1: of players that laid the foundation for us moving forward

1526
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:58,240
Speaker 1: because there's actually nothing in place that offer retired players

1527
01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:00,720
Speaker 1: right now. But I think my ad was part of

1528
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:03,960
Speaker 1: the lockout in his season that was like for that

1529
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. Yeah, retired players, pension, all that kind

1530
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:10,440
Speaker 1: of stuff, So that's definitely important to us. You know,

1531
01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:12,480
Speaker 1: we have I don't know if all teams have like

1532
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 1: mental health specialists on staff, but I know we had

1533
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:19,120
Speaker 1: some in LA. We had two in LA. Do we

1534
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:22,200
Speaker 1: have one in Chicago? Like I think LA might have

1535
01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:24,640
Speaker 1: been my first team that had mental health specialists for us,

1536
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,880
Speaker 1: just for our team, So that wasn't a thing. The

1537
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:30,880
Speaker 1: way they take care of mothers definitely has room for improvement,

1538
01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 1: but it's much better than it was like when my

1539
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 1: dad was coaching. So again, like being a woman in

1540
01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:39,160
Speaker 1: this field, like, there's just so many things that we

1541
01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:42,120
Speaker 1: have to think about that men simply don't have to

1542
01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:45,400
Speaker 1: worry about, like getting pregnant and having kids and how

1543
01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:47,280
Speaker 1: you're going to manage that, and how's it going to

1544
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 1: affect your contract. It's going to affect a roster spot

1545
01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 1: because now you get pregnant, you got to be out.

1546
01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:55,200
Speaker 1: You're out, but your salaries protected now, So like that's

1547
01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:58,400
Speaker 1: a spot. Yeah, So it's like you got to consider

1548
01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: that when you're trying to have a kid, and it's like, man,

1549
01:07:00,560 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 1: that's just something men just don't have to think about it.

1550
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:06,120
Speaker 2: It's definitely a lot of different things when you talk

1551
01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:08,800
Speaker 2: about just what players have to worry about the NBA

1552
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 2: versus the w NBA.

1553
01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:10,880
Speaker 1: Who are.

1554
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:16,440
Speaker 2: Because I just saw that Asia Wilson got a signature

1555
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,280
Speaker 2: shoe and I think the last person to have one

1556
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:20,600
Speaker 2: was Sheryl Swoops.

1557
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:21,920
Speaker 1: I think Sabrina has one.

1558
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:22,920
Speaker 2: She has one now.

1559
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:26,120
Speaker 1: It's like the highest selling basketball shoe right now, behind

1560
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:28,640
Speaker 1: Kobe's Sabrina shoe fire.

1561
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:34,120
Speaker 2: Really, I might have to look into Asia shoe is dope.

1562
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:38,120
Speaker 2: Who are some of the players that you think deserve

1563
01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:39,760
Speaker 2: a signature shoe in the league?

1564
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:42,960
Speaker 1: I mean, Asia was the biggest one for me.

1565
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:44,720
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean absolutely yeah.

1566
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:52,200
Speaker 1: I mean Stewie has one, Sabrina has one. I don't know.

1567
01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: To me, Asia was like the one for me. So

1568
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:58,840
Speaker 1: I think that's it's really amazing that she got one.

1569
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:02,200
Speaker 1: I think Caitlyn Clark is going to have one, and

1570
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,720
Speaker 1: I think ju Ju might be the next one that

1571
01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 1: absolutely she might get one while she still she might

1572
01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:10,280
Speaker 1: have one. Now, yeah, she might have one already in

1573
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:11,760
Speaker 1: the work well deserved.

1574
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:13,120
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think.

1575
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:17,800
Speaker 1: Arica Arikae.

1576
01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:19,160
Speaker 2: I love her game.

1577
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:20,639
Speaker 1: I think she would sell some sneakers.

1578
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,240
Speaker 2: I love her game. I love watching her play. She

1579
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,680
Speaker 2: she's like I would play. I would pay to watch her.

1580
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:29,800
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, yea to one and I think yeah,

1581
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:31,920
Speaker 1: And I think again back to the marketing thing, Like

1582
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,240
Speaker 1: I think arik now she is able to like show

1583
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,560
Speaker 1: more of her personality on and off the court, and

1584
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:41,800
Speaker 1: I hope Dallas like pours into that, like markets that

1585
01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:44,760
Speaker 1: because she is like outside of being like just a

1586
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,920
Speaker 1: dope person, Like the way she plays basketball is like

1587
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:47,839
Speaker 1: super entertaining.

1588
01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:49,480

1591
01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:59,040

1592
01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 3: of my favorite shoes of all time. I would never

01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:02,000
Speaker 3: play full court basketball.

1594
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,000
