36
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,160

Speaker 3: you know, what you're thinking, right, They see what you do, right,

42
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 3: So they want to hear what you think and what

43
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 3: your your take is. I think your fans, you know,

48
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,040

49
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 3: They want to you know, they hear you say something

50
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 3: and they latch onto it. I know what that is.

51
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 3: You know, that happened to me when I was a

52
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 3: kid too. Write something like that, and you know they're

53
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: that's that's what fans want. They want, you know, they

Speaker 3: want closeness. They want to be able to identify with you.

55
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 3: So it's totally cool as long as it doesn't take

56
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 3: away from practice, hitting your threes and your free throws.

57
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 7: I think I'm having a career year from the free

58
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 7: throw line.

59
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 5: I will say that.

60
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 7: Career period period.

61
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 6: What is your percentage for free throw.

62
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: I'm like eighty one probably, I'm like, wait a minute,

63
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: we can look this up.

64
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 7: I'm I'm for sure low eighties.

65
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 9: Remember he was gone last episode. We looked up this

66
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 9: three point percentage. What was it like thirty three two

67
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 9: thirty three?

68
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 5: Oh no, it wasn't. I think I'm like thirty four.

69
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 2: Percent. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

70
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 5: Let's see.

71
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 7: Anyways, he said something that was great, long as it

72
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 7: doesn't doesn't take away from practice make your free throws,

73
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 7: which sometimes I don't make three throws obviously, eighty.

74
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: Eighty eight so the lowest of eighties.

75
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: Is eighty eighty and then six I'm almost almost eighty one.

76
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 5: We round up.

77
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, For the most part, I feel like.

78
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 7: Everyone thinks that, like, yeah, we just we jump, we

79
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 7: run here, we jump, and we do our show, right,

80
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 7: and then like it takes away from our time like

81
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 7: practice or whatever, like now we have a great production.

82
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 7: Everyone who makes this like seamless. We're usually, like you said,

83
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 7: coming from the gym or going to the gym after, right,

84
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 7: whether we have practice or not. I think it's just

85
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 7: a good way for us to I mean, we're gonna

86
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 7: sit and talk regardless, right, that's all we all we

87
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 7: do is talk on the phone. But it's just a

88
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 7: different way to kind of let our voices be heard.

89
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's a platform, right, get to say

90
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:38,559
Speaker 3: what you want to say.

91
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 9: That's the one thing we've said is like say the

92
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 9: team goes on a couple game slide, you know for

93
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 9: sure the media is gonna say something, right. So I

94
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 9: think the fact that these guys have a platform to

95
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 9: be able to address it on their own terms can

96
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 9: be really bad. And I think in twenty twenty five,

97
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 9: like to be able to if you're a fan and

98
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 9: you get to hear the in inside look into what

99
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 9: your your star players are thinking, their take on the game.

100
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 7: I think it's a gift. Honestly.

101
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I mean, you guys, I mean this

102
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 3: is a good topic, right because I mean I've been

103
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 3: dealing with the media for thirty years, and you know

104
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: my experience with the media is that, I mean, look,

105
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 3: they write in order to get you know, clicks and

106
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 3: get viewers and readers and whatever, right, so that the

107
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 3: that's their sort of agenda, right, which also sort of

108
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 3: means at the same time that the real stories don't

109
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 3: come out, right they So I mean this is a

110
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 3: way for you know, real stories to come out.

111
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, for sure, I think we should. If you

112
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 9: guys are comfortable to talk about Kendrick Perkins, what about them?

113
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 9: Did you see what Kendrick Perkins said? Kendrick Perkins, Yes,

114
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 9: I know who he is.

115
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 10: What do you say now, Well, George is not the

116
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 10: only person that should be, you know, taking a break

117
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,280
Speaker 10: from podcast and doing the basketball season. I feel like

118
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 10: Jaylen Brown, Sending and Josh Hard as well need to

119
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 10: take take a break because if you're trying to go

120
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 10: out there and honestly compete for NBA Championship, right.

121
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 2: I wish I would have.

122
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 10: Walked into the two thousand and eight locker room talking

123
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 10: about our podcasts and through season or anybody else. It

124
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 10: would have been smoking, furniture, moving around.

125
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 7: And so I'm gonna say that there are much worse

126
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 7: things you could be doing.

127
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 2: Than having a podcasts.

128
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 7: There are a lot of things that go on, right,

129
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 7: They're much worse than sitting here and talking with you

130
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 7: guys about stuff or whatever. That's all I'm gonna say.

131
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 7: You can y'all can drag that. Y'all can figure out

132
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 7: whatever y'all want to figure out.

133
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean my thing.

134
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: I think it's funny because we can sit there, we

135
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: can be talking about somebody and they can be like, man,

136
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: this dude, Yeah someone.

137
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 5: He's about overports.

138
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: You Like, yeah, he said he was at home just

139
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: kicking it playing video games for four hours. No one

140
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: BET's a note, Oh he played video games for four.

141
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 7: I think I agree there are times with that, But

142
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 7: I feel like as a professional athlete, when you're caught

143
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 7: or when you're like posting about something that's other than

144
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 7: your profession, like your main thing, like whenever, remember everyone

145
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 7: kept saying, oh, whenever the new call duty comes out,

146
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 7: Kyler Murray is not as locked in right, So now

147
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 7: he has that narrative on him, whether it's true or not.

148
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 7: There are players like like hard and who's known for

149
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 7: going out Like right, it's a known thing. Like there's

150
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 7: no matter what you do, if there's not your profession,

151
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 7: someone's gonna be saying something like you need to be

152
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 7: focusing on your profession. Like I put my heart, blood

153
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 7: and tears into this, I'm gonna go crazy. This is

154
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 7: the only thing I think about. Yeah, I'm gonna put

155
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 7: myself through hell. I need some type of get away.

156
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 7: Sometimes we golf, right, m hm, during the during the playoffs.

157
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 7: Now we're like all right, during the series, we're not

158
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 7: talking about this whatever. After this series, we can have

159
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 7: a check in, all right, But like we were, I just

160
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 7: I just find it funny how like we're supposed to

161
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 7: just like go to the gym, come home, just sit

162
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 7: on the couch and just like wait for the next day.

163
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.

164
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 7: Wat's the paint dry?

165
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

166
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 9: I think Also the craziest part about it is the

167
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 9: same people that are saying stop podcasting, get in the

168
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 9: gym are the same people complaining about the minutes that

169
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 9: you guys are playing.

170
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 7: So it's like, how do you have it both ways?

171
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 9: You're mad that they're playing this amount of minutes, and

172
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 9: then you want them to actually when they're supposed to

173
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 9: be resting and what we're supposed to be off d

174
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 9: you want them back in the gym to run their

175
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 9: bodies down more.

176
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 7: First of all, you're headed the gym immediately after this

177
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 7: to shoot of that earlier right.

178
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 9: So I also think the one thing that people don't

179
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 9: really understand is like for people who don't have as

180
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 9: much of an insight into what the behind the scenes

181
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 9: business looks like for an NBA player launching a podcast,

182
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 9: if they think that you're out here handling production logistics,

183
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 9: running the social media, selling the ads, booking the guests,

184
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 9: I just don't I don't know what to say, right,

185
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 9: Like you all, you all show up twice a month

186
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 9: and we talk and you all to think about anything

187
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 9: else for a couple hours. You don't have to think

188
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 9: about anything else, because that's what a well oiled machine is,

189
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 9: and that's what as entrepreneurs you guys have set up

190
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 9: around you. We have a team of twenty plus people

191
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 9: working on this.

192
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 7: And the invice is out there. Perk invite from a

193
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 7: long time ago.

194
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: Stood out there just now when you'd come here, we're

195
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: gonna be moving these this furniture.

196
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 5: Let that be No.

197
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I would say, I think we're pretty focused.

198
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 9: I mean, you're thirty eight and twenty and twenty.

199
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 7: This point as of right now. I don't know one's dropping. Yeah,

200
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 7: we're focused. There are a lot of things that people

201
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 7: do right on their own time, whether it's like going

202
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 7: to help them or hurt them or whatever.

203
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know.

204
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 7: Bro. A lot of people say that they want to

205
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,599
Speaker 7: say what we can and cannot do, a lot of

206
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 7: people told us what we can and cannot do to

207
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 7: get to this point where we were playing basketball, like

208
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 7: you're not going to make it, or you need to

209
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 7: need to do this to make it or whatever.

210
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 2: We keep the main thing, the main thing.

211
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 7: I think it's pretty self explanatory with how hard we

212
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 7: play and that what we push ourselves on the court

213
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 7: to do. I mean, I just thanks for your opinion

214
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 7: and then.

215
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 2: We move forward.

216
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 7: That's my guy, though, like I have much respect for Prais,

217
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 7: He's that's my guy. A lot of PI I have

218
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 7: much respect. But like like I said before, you got

219
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 7: to listen to the polities. You can't listen to the

220
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 7: negatives and then listen to the positives. If you gotta,

221
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,599
Speaker 7: you gotta be able to either listen to both or

222
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 7: block out both.

223
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 3: I'm not worried not about that. If I was to say,

224
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 3: what I was concerned about with with the team in

225
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 3: general is that, you know, I think we have First off,

226
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 3: we have a team that's gonna be together for a while,

227
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 3: right Leon. It's done a good job right of of

228
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: you know, he's lined up the contracts and everything else.

229
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 3: So this team is gonna, it's gonna this isn't our

230
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 3: only season, and it's not, you know, so so we're

231
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 3: gonna play a bunch of seasons together, right that they

232
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: and you know, you take a look at teams like Boston,

233
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 3: right they that have played together, right, et cetera, and

234
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 3: they get to draw off of something that they built

235
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 3: over that period of time. And I think that's you know,

236
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 3: for this team, right That's that's challenge really like today,

237
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 3: right the you know, going into the playoffs, et cetera,

238
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 3: is is to build that inside of the team, something

239
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 3: we can draw on, something that that uh, you know,

240
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 3: and I think that in order to do that, you

241
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 3: have to first thing you have to have is a

242
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 3: belief that you can win, that you can win any game,

243
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 3: that you can win the championship.

244
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,719
Speaker 6: You really really believe.

245
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 3: That, right They then you know that you're going to

246
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 3: you aren't going to worry about podcasts, right that you

247
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 3: know you're gonna you're gonna worry about how how you're

248
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 3: playing with the other guys, how how you know, how

249
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 3: you're running a play, how you're you know, the the

250
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 3: how the communication is going, et cetera. What you can

251
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 3: do that will you know that will be even better?

252
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 6: Right?

253
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: I mean with Mitch coming in that the there's a

254
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: lot that still can be can be done. I expect

255
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 3: to see maybe some more alley oops, right, but it

256
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 3: changes the defense.

257
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 6: So how are we going to rework the defense?

258
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 2: You know?

259
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 3: I think this team and everybody on it focuses on

260
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 3: those things and just give them time, right and the

261
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 3: and I think it will happen because I believe everybody,

262
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 3: everybody believes.

263
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 9: This is the never ordinary sports segment brought to you

264
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 9: by Bett three six five. So I think we should

265
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 9: talk about a few maybe a few things in the

266
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 9: sports world. That happened this week. Maybe he's a little

267
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 9: chaotic and we've got a few things to talk about.

268
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 9: Did you guys, did you guys watch the Jamonte Davis

269
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 9: fight at all or did you see any highlights of it?

270
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: No?

271
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 5: I didn't you know what happened?

272
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 7: Yes, I mean I saw the grease in his eye,

273
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 7: took the knee, but his apparently his hair braider took

274
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 7: to Instagram and said, I braided him five days ago,

275
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 7: and I really didn't use much grease.

276
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw that. I was. I we both get

277
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: our hair braided.

278
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 7: I could see that. I could see grease getting in

279
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 7: the hair. Is it really grease?

280
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: Though?

281
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 7: It's like Gail, No, it's not gel because the jail

282
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 7: pretty much just like it's like sticking in your hair,

283
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 7: like the oil. But after you get your hair done.

284
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 5: That absorbs.

285
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that absorbed into your scalp after the first day.

286
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 2: No, But I'm saying like it wouldn't be the gel

287
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 2: if it was.

288
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I don't know. Maybe

289
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: maybe you did, Maybe you did, I don't know. I know,

290
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: I get I get my hair braided all the time.

291
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: I never had that problem but gamesmanship. Yeah, I mean

292
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: did a draw.

293
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 9: I think they might review it if if I'm understanding,

294
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 9: does anyone know I heard that they might actually go back.

295
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 5: And revisit it.

296
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 9: They could, you can it could result in a loss. Yeah, yeah,

297
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 9: that's what I heard.

298
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 7: We'll see. I'll be sick of just running back. They

299
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 7: just running back.

300
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: If you do that, then it takes away from like

301
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: round two round and all they care about is rating.

302
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 5: The month is so running back. Yeah, they ain't gonna

303
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 5: do that.

304
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 9: All right, we got a little commander's trade.

305
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I get I think he'll be He'll be a

306
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 5: good addition. It'll just.

307
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: His his role on the team will be you know,

308
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: it would be cool. It'll be kind of like a

309
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: Demandi Brown hopefully. You know, he played a little bit

310
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: better than he did. You know he did, and he

311
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: had a good year. But his versatility will be very

312
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 1: good in our system. I hope that's not the only

313
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: move we make, because we are you know, we need

314
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: to make a lot more moves.

315
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 5: But that's a step in the right direction.

316
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 9: Yep, all right, this is another question. Will the Tush

317
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 9: push make it into the next season without being banned?

318
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 9: Show us the quote from coach Siriani. Yes, so we

319
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 9: work hard at that thing, and it's automatic because of

320
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 9: the work that's put in and because the players that

321
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 9: we have who are performing it. It's not automatic throughout

322
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 9: the entire league. Okay, will Steph curR shouldn't be allowed

323
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 9: to shoot threes only in the fourth quarter? Can Steph

324
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 9: Curry shoot threes?

325
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: Like?

326
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 9: What are we talking about? You can't just make a

327
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 9: rule up because it's benefiting one team and everywhere else

328
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 9: it's not quite as good.

329
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 7: I may respect that energy, it's it's not like every

330
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 7: team uses it. It's automatic.

331
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: It's right, it's but I also understand it if it

332
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: was like there was a loophole in the rules and

333
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: the rules that they like figured out and exploited.

334
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 5: Like it's just a.

335
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 9: Play and they're and they're they're paying for a great

336
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 9: offensive line.

337
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, JB, you and Kat can't do no more picking rules.

338
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: It's like, bro, it makes no sense. They they they

339
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: figured out a play that works. That's that you know

340
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: what works within the rules. So why Yeah, you can't

341
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: penalize them for it. But I mean, I guess you

342
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: could probably tell the defense they better don't let don't

343
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: let them get within two yards.

344
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 7: Do you remember when it first came out as an

345
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 7: anonymous team, uh submitted this to be banned?

346
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 2: Right?

347
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 7: They said that it was first the first reporters anonymous

348
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 7: team submitted this for the Swiss supposed to be banned.

349
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 7: I'm trying to figure out how the team's name got out.

350
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 7: Who is it? Yeah, the Packers.

351
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 1: I didn't know it's the Packers. I want to know

352
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 1: how why? Yeah, I don't know who leaked that information.

353
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: I feel like they should just move on from that

354
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 1: because I feel like there's something they talked about the

355
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: last two years. Yeah, I just it's not getting banned.

Speaker 1: on other episodes of the podcast of like, you know,

400
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: this is like I said, you know, you Leon had

405

407
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,760

408
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: the first year, and it're going to continue to build.

409
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: And I think that's like, you know, it takes time

410
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: to everyone to mesh, and especially you know with Kat

411
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: coming in, you know, right before a training camp. It's

412
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 1: not like we had a whole summer too, you know,

413
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: connect with him and build camaraderie with him, so it

414
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: was relatively new, so he didn't he.

415
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 7: Didn even practice the first couple of practices because it

416
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,159
Speaker 7: wasn't the trail had and gone through yet. Yeah, So

417
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 7: I mean that put us I don't want to say

418
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,479
Speaker 7: put us behind a fall, but like it delayed us

419
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 7: a little bit.

420
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 6: And it still came out of the box pretty high.

421
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.

422
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 7: I mean there were games where we looked like, all right,

423
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 7: this seems even good, and there were games was like,

424
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 7: all right, what are we doing?

425
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 2: I think so, like I think we're five and six

426
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 2: at one point?

427
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 9: Was that when the Utah loss was that early like

428
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 9: that first time games?

429
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

430
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 7: Probably, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

431
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,120
Speaker 5: Also couldn't breathe Yeah.

432
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, elevation, Yeah, going to Utah is never that's never

433
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: a fun fun game. But it was like, you know,

434
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: they were in that first ten fifteen games, like you

435
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,199
Speaker 1: could see like there were spurts where it's like, okay,

436
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: we see what we kind of have, but like they

437
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: just weren't consistent throughout, and the consistency is the one

438
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 1: that takes the time. Everyone just sees the spurts and

439
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, this is what it's supposed to be

440
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 1: or just like it takes time, it takes going through

441
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 1: adversity to build that that can, you know, connectiveness.

442
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 6: I think the fans see it, you know, a little

443
00:20:58,680 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 6: like you see it.

444
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 3: I mean, have to do what you have to do, right,

445
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 3: But I think they see it right and they see that.

446
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 3: That's why I think they're so excited, right, and yes,

447
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 3: they want it yesterday.

448
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 9: I mean you said in the last show. But this

449
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 9: is feels, at least to you guys like the first

450
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 9: season in a little while where there's been like real,

451
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 9: like real real expectations and obviously you're feeling kind of

452
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 9: like the double edged nature of that sword, right, the

453
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 9: good and the bad. It's like when you guys win

454
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 9: a few games, it's like the Nexter Contenders. Do you

455
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 9: lose a few games the next a fraud?

456
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.

457
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 7: That's like I said that you can't either you listen

458
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 7: to both and that you internalize it or like you

459
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 7: just you block out both. Like you can't just listen

460
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 7: to the positive and think all I'm not gonna think

461
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 7: listen to the negative. It doesn't work like that because

462
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 7: you're gonna you're gonna build up like the negative so

463
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 7: much that you're gonna have it, just gonna have a

464
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 7: I don't even know, like what Josh does.

465
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 2: What's it? Crash out half the time?

466
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 5: I crash out that much?

467
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 7: Even very good this year, even really good this year.

468
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 7: We almost had one last night on the bench. Yeah,

469
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 7: you only have eight this year, Josh Last Sniper's eight. Yeah,

470
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 7: I think so that's not bad compared to what you

471
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 7: usual would have. Josh Last Snipers letting his voice be heard,

472
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 7: and a bunch of just had to tell him, like,

473
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 7: shut the fuck up because he was gonna get attacked

474
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 7: at some point. And he came back after you know,

475
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 7: every group, get his emotions back, and he played well

476
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 7: the rest of the game.

477
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 2: He started the game pretty well.

478
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 5: But did you know why?

479
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 7: Yes, trust me, I understand, I fully understand. But let's

480
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 7: just let's stay away because.

481
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 3: Well, how much does the referees and the calls motivate

482
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 3: you in a game? I mean, because I've seen I

483
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 3: mean you particularly right, I mean somebody asked to come

484
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 3: in practically with like you know, like an UZI before

485
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 3: they're willing to call a foul they I mean, how

486
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 3: much and then how much does that make you want

487
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 3: to try harder? Right, how much does it distract you

488
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 3: from from your play?

489
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 7: I mean play hard. I think I all think it

490
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 7: makes us play harder. I think depending on like what

491
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,439
Speaker 7: the foul is, if we getting if we got a

492
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 7: foul called on us versus like us trying to get

493
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 7: a call. Like sometimes you gotta play smarter because like,

494
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 7: all right, I have two fouls.

495
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 2: I can't be reckless.

496
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, or they're not calling some touch fouls, so like

497
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,479
Speaker 7: all right, now, I just gotta be stronger when going

498
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 7: to the basket or with the ball or whatever. It's

499
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 7: like sometimes it's a different mindset. Like everyone thinks there's

500
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 7: no consistency to the game, but different refs, ref game

501
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 7: is different, So a different game could be less physical

502
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 7: or more physical than the last.

503
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 2: And so.

504
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 3: That Portland game, what the Portland Cleveland game? You know

505
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 3: how many fouls they.

506
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 7: Called them the Portland clean game last night?

507
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, I have this right, I think they're called seventy.

508
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 1: Fouls out there hacking how total total? I feel like

509
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: there's always in terms of officiating, there's three different ways,

510
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 1: like during all over the course of the season, the

511
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: games officiated, because you have like the first beginning of

512
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: the season where it's like point of emphasis, like that happens.

513
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, like they you know, they kind.

514
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 3: Of do it comes out and says, we're gonna we're

515
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 3: gonna focus on on double dribbles. We're going to focus

516
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 3: on five second inbounds, right, and all of a sudden, who.

517
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 5: Spurt, you see a bunch of a whole and then

518
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 5: after like an maybe it's not it dies down.

519
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: And then usually after like All Star, like when it's

520
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: like getting ready for playoffs, they let you be a

521
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: little bit more physical because obviously playoff basketball the physicality

522
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: is through the roof. So I think it's just like

523
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: you have to one know that, but also to have

524
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,360
Speaker 1: the like the connectiveness to be able to hold each

525
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,959
Speaker 1: other accountable on it because like as JB says, sometimes

526
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: I crash out or like if I feel like, you know,

527
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: I didn't get a foul called or something like, I'm

528
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: liable to like go off. And I think that's where

529
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: like we have the what's starting to get like the

530
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 1: connectedness of like yo, Josh, shut the hell up, like

531
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: they're not calling it go play.

532
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 7: So I mean I had that connection connecting, yeah.

533
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: But like it's different with like kel will still have

534
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: it like o G. Yeah, cat cats a little bit

535
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: like me with with the crash, not as bad, but

536
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: like we have that.

537
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 2: But fifty three foul calls.

538
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 3: Fifty three fifty three foul calls, which is absurd. So

539
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 3: maybe seventy trips to the line.

540
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 5: Probably probably right, that's a lot.

541
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 9: I was just going to say, this is random, but

542
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 9: that eight second call last night against Miami is an

543
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,719
Speaker 9: incredible call. Huge, Like I'm obviously I'm not games, I'm

544
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 9: watching them. I'm like, it's it's not even occurring to

545
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 9: me to be counting because no one was pressuring Tyler

546
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 9: here in the back court. But the fact that the

547
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 9: ref called that was like, obviously it is a huge

548
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 9: momentum shift to that was a great call.

549
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was, it was right, it.

550
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 6: Was I don't know.

551
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 3: After after you guys went up five, I was pretty

552
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,719
Speaker 3: confident you're gonna win, right, no matter what the reference?

553
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, we want to five.

554
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: That Alex Burg hit that three, I'm like, and it

555
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: wasn't even like a clean three. It was like, uh,

556
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: it was just like hesitation was after my my foul,

557
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: but the misshot and it went out of balance.

558
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, what's the difference in mindset versus

559
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 7: looking at the Rangers versus looking at us.

560
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, the first off, the I mean the

561
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 3: Knicks are much smaller organization in terms of you know,

562
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 3: the Rangers are twenty guys and they're all playing, right,

563
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 3: there's no rotation. Well, I mean there was just a

564
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 3: slight rotation in hockey, but basically they all twenty guys

565
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 3: played the whole game, right, So it's it's a much

566
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 3: bigger group, right that the also there's obviously a lot

567
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 3: less scoring, right, So.

568
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 6: With basketball it's a smaller group.

569
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 3: And I mean there's you know, Tim has been playing

570
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 3: with an eight man rotation.

571
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 6: I think it's nine now, right, Yeah.

572
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 7: Tis doing things increased, Its increasing.

573
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 6: Right, It's always funny to talk to him about playing time.

574
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 6: He's like, he want to talk about it, just be

575
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 6: I want to win the game.

576
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 5: So so wait, right, I'm not mad at him.

577
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 3: But uh, you know, the development is different because there's

578
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 3: so many players in hockey versus versus basketball. I mean

579
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 3: the the you know, Leon had a plan, man with

580
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 3: a planned three years ago, he executed it. We really

581
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 3: changed you know over those you know from your coming on,

582
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 3: et cetera. We changed out the whole group. You can't

583
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 3: do that in hockey, right, you can't change out twenty guys.

584
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 3: If you do, you're you're gonna have a mess on

585
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 3: your hands. Right, you got to build right. And then

586
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 3: there's the whole question of of you know, how do

587
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 3: you build right free agents, the uh, you know, draft picks.

588
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 3: That's the other thing is is hockey has a much

589
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 3: more developed farm system than basketball US. I mean, they

590
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 3: see these kids coming from like thirteen fourteen years old,

591
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 3: and they go into this pipeline, right that is like

592
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 3: a double a right, et cetera, all the way up,

593
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 3: sometimes some through college, some not through college, right they

594
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 3: and you got to watch them the whole way. And

595
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 3: so the development of a of a hockey player I

596
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 3: think is much more different, much more longer term than

597
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 3: than a basketball player basketball player, you know, you know,

598
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 3: I mean you can take a look put the feet

599
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 3: i'ms aside, right, you know basketball players are you know

600
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 3: they go through high school, right, they go into college.

601
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 6: Right, it's.

602
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 3: They and a lot changes along along the way for

603
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 3: him and who and who who rises up eventually to

604
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 3: an NBA level? Right is you know, it's not that

605
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 3: easily predictable. I mean they you're watching the Saint John's

606
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 3: games at all. You don't watching not your team, but

607
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 3: they're you know, I mean it's interesting to watch that

608
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 3: team developed. They got a great coach and Patino and uh,

609
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 3: you're watching those players develop, and I mean it's different

610
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 3: hockey basketball.

611
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 9: So I mean, look at a guy like on a

612
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 9: extreme example, but Duncan Robinson right plays Division III and

613
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 9: and is now like has a really meaningful contract. You

614
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 9: probably don't see that in hockey, even you right, you

615
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 9: were what rank eighty three?

616
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 3: Extremely rare in hockey, Sydney I could name my one hand,

617
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 3: like Sidney Crosby, right, they just just a few, right

618
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 3: they and even with you know, look what Sidney Crosby,

619
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 3: you know when he first came on into the team

620
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 3: for the for the Penguins, right, I mean he did

621
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 3: make a difference. Right, But you can't these twenty guys playing.

622
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 3: There's nineteen other guys, right, the other nineteen guys can

623
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 3: let the pucket in the net and Sydney can score

624
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 3: the hearts. Are You're still going to lose. You won't

625
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 3: even make the playoffs. So they they've got they've got

626
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 3: to develop all twenty of them. And the other big, big,

627
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 3: one of the other big differences between hockey and basketball.

628
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 6: Is the cap, right the.

629
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 5: Hockey cap right there, So the hockey cap is a hard.

630
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 3: Cap, right means it's around I don't know, I think

631
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 3: it's like a ninety something million at at this point, right,

632
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 3: but everybody's got the same cap, right so you can't

633
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 3: you know, you can't.

634
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 6: I mean, we're in New York.

635
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 3: If there was no cap, we could you could sign

636
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 3: every you know, every player, every great player there was.

637
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 7: There's no luxury tax or apron, no.

638
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 3: Luxury tax, there's no apron. Now it's just a hard gap.

639
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 3: You can't go over it.

640
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 7: Do you think that's that positive for the league or

641
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 7: in that night?

642
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 3: It's created a lot of parody in the league, right

643
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 3: the I mean, But at the same time, I mean

644
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 3: it also there's no great team right the the in hockey,

645
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 3: I mean, and it changes you know, you know, you

646
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 3: got injuries things like that that affect the team. So

647
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 3: a team can be on top of the world one

648
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 3: year and then the next year, you know, not their

649
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 3: star player or or two gets gets injured, and you're

650
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 3: playing basically with a sixty million dollar roster against a

651
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 3: ninety million dollar roster.

652
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 7: That's interesting.

653
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 9: So do you feel like from a league perspective, dynasties

654
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 9: and aprons and super teams yield a better product then?

655
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 7: Like a league full of parody.

656
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 6: Up to a point until it gets boring.

657
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 9: That's a fine line, right.

658
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 3: It's like we have seen, you know, bunches of years

659
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 3: where the same team ends up in the playoffs, right,

660
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 3: I mean it gets a little especially when it's not

661
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 3: your team, they get a little tired of it.

662
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 6: Right, But but yeah, I think you know.

663
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, and then there are some franchises

664
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 3: that never right, they just don't ever get there.

665
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 9: Do you feel like the implementation of the two aprons

666
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 9: helps in that sense? And that it makes it really

667
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 9: hard to have a dynasty over over five years because

668
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 9: of how expensive it is.

669
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 6: I think it's I think it's hard to have a

670
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 6: dynasty over five years. Yeah, yeah, I.

671
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 3: Mean I'm not just is not somebody who's speaking from experience.

672
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 3: I'd be happy to have a dynasty for one year.

673
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 2: It's just.

674
00:32:58,120 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 5: About this year or next year.

675
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would like.

676
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 7: There hasn't been a repeat champion and what since the

677
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 7: words that's the Warriors, different teams Inever year, So I

678
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 7: mean keeps the interesting.

679
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 2: I just think that that's and there's.

680
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 3: Different ways to develop a team too. I mean that's

681
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,959
Speaker 3: the the that's part of what you see. I mean

682
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 3: the the like our team approach, right that the is

683
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 3: much more what I would call team approach.

684
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 6: Right that the.

685
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 3: Whereas you know, I mean you take a look at

686
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 3: like Golden State or Denver, it's basically two three players

687
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 3: as the most right that the and then everything else

688
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 3: switches out over over time. Right, it's those two or

689
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 3: three guys are the team. And and I think with

690
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 3: our team, I mean it's whole team. I always I

691
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 3: always loved the old Detroit team. You know, they had

692
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 3: great players, but no super stars, no super superstars.

693
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 6: Right, I mean they.

694
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 3: And uh you know when they won a championship, and

695
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 3: the way they won that championship was was team play, right,

696
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 3: I mean the way they passed that ball was amazing.

697
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 6: Right, that team?

698
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 3: Right, who was the coach was yeah, very round right,

699
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 3: the that team when they when they played, I mean

700
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 3: and I think they you know, I mean just the

701
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 3: way they played, they had they had five guys on

702
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 3: on the floor, you know, and and all five right,

703
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 3: it wasn't feeding all one guy, et cetera.

704
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 1: So I'm talking about building teams. Obviously this summer has

705
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: been what was an active summer for us. So what

706
00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: goes through your you know, your mind when it's like, okay, no,

707
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: here's time to really make a push, to make make

708
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: these moves to enhance the team.

709
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 3: Well, look it's it's all Leon right. The you know,

710
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 3: I am not the architect of this team. The the

711
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 3: Leon Rose is the architect of the team. You know

712
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 3: him and coach and Wes is in there too, right,

713
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 3: But they come to me, right And when they when

714
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 3: they first started, and they had an.

715
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 6: Idea of what they could do, and they said this

716
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:32,880
Speaker 6: is what we're going to try and do.

717
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 3: And they keep coming back and say, well, I'm modifying

718
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 3: this or doing this, et cetera. But you know, mostly

719
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 3: I'm I'm signing the checks right, thank you, thank you, thanks.

720
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 6: The fans and want to let me do it.

721
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 3: The but and the other thing I sort of do

722
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,399
Speaker 3: with you know, both hockey and with basketball is to say, okay,

723
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 3: here's what you told me last year. Here's what you're

724
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 3: telling me this year. How to the two job with

725
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 3: each other? Are you you know, are you making a

726
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 3: significant change? Why are you doing it?

727
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 6: It doesn't mean you can't, right, but I will sort

728
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 6: of hold them to their plan.

729
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 7: Right.

730
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 3: It's been really easy with with Leon. He didn't really

731
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 3: veer off the plan at all, you know, he just

732
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 3: he just looked for opportunities. But I mean, in the end,

733
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 3: we're together on it, right, and uh, and we go

734
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 3: forward and I think you know, it's like I said before,

735
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 3: I mean, this team is going.

736
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 6: To be together for a while now.

737
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 3: They've architected it that way, and I think you know,

738
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 3: now we work on on the the team has to

739
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 3: work with a coach and develop you know, familiarity, right,

740
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 3: the that extra gear right that comes from knowing each

741
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 3: other and playing with each other for so long, right

742
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 3: that you know, that's that's what we wanted to see happen.

743
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 7: Have you? Have you always been that way when it

744
00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:01,760
Speaker 7: comes to like let in the GM or the president

745
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 7: do what they want to do, Like since since since

746
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 7: the time you took over it to like now has

747
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 7: always been that way or.

748
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 6: I had to learn along the way we want to

749
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 6: go over that.

750
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 2: Really, you know, you don't have to say, like I said,

751
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 2: this is your show. You can talk about whatever you

752
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:18,479
Speaker 2: want to talk about.

753
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 3: I mean, there were times when when you know, it's

754
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 3: sort of reach for that shiny, sparkly object, right, they said,

755
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 3: maybe this is what we need, especially when when things

756
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 3: were not going well. Right, let's let's bring in this

757
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 3: guy and maybe he'll you know, he'll turn it all

758
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 3: around for us. Sometimes it's a players, sometimes it's a coach, right,

759
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 3: et cetera. And you know what I've learned over time

760
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 3: is that doesn't work. No, it really doesn't. Right, you really,

761
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 3: you really have to do the fundamentals to basics. You

762
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 3: got to build a team. You got to build the organization.

763
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 6: Right.

764
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 3: It does not There is no you know, waving the

765
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,880
Speaker 3: wand over a team and making it you know, all

766
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 3: of a sudden a great team doesn't happen.

767
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 7: Was there ever a trade or signing where it didn't

768
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 7: happen but you really wish it did.

769
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, A long time ago, A long time I got

770
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 3: to even remember it was he ended up playing for

771
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 3: the Nets the right shoot, great score. It wasn't Grant Hill,

772
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 3: the it was a guy out of Toronto.

773
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 2: Vince Carter.

774
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 6: Vince Carter, right, Vince Carter is.

775
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 3: A great example, right that we were going to do

776
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 3: the trade. Well, this is all, and the medical team

777
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 3: came back and told us that he had a ninety

778
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 3: percent severed Achilles tendon right the and that it would

779
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 3: never hold up right and that if once it ruptured right,

780
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 3: he'd never be the same player.

781
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,959
Speaker 2: And for that reason didn't happen.

782
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,400

895
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: I'm so curious to see because like all of us

896
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: are like avid sports fans. So if like, I love

897
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,800
Speaker 1: the Commanders, but if you put me in a position

898
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: where I'm like having to make decisions for the Commanders,

899
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 1: and like, my fandom would probably get into it. Like

900
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 1: whether ever a point where you're like, I have to

901
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 1: put my fandom aside to make these decisions.

902
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 2: Or or how do you departmentalize that? Like how do

903
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 2: you push that to the side.

904
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 3: Well, it is what you said right that they Yes,

905
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 3: you have to put your fandom aside, right, Otherwise I

906
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 3: mean you drive yourself nuts, to be honest, that they.

907
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 6: But it's what I said before. I mean, first, the

908
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 6: first thing you should realiz as an owner.

909
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 3: Is that you don't know don't know the game and

910
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 3: and the sport like your GMS and your coaches, et cetera.

911
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 6: You gotta you gotta, you gotta.

912
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 3: That's important, right, because if you think you do, your

913
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 3: team's in for a very bad year or years.

914
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 5: I'm talking about the Dallas Cowboys.

915
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,759
Speaker 3: I'm not saying nothing but they. But I think that's

916
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 3: the first thing. As if it was I was talking

917
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,399
Speaker 3: to a new ownder, that would be the first thing

918
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 3: I said. You know, you think you know basketball, you

919
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:31,879
Speaker 3: think you know all this, right, and I'm sure you're

920
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 3: pretty smart at it, et cetera. Right, But these guys

921
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 3: who you hired right to do this spent their whole

922
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 3: lives doing it right. They know it inside and out.

923
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:45,880
Speaker 3: They know it better than you.

924
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 6: Right.

925
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 3: So your job as the owner is to support them

926
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 3: right and help them, you know, through through the process

927
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 3: by doing things like, okay, right, let's lay out a

928
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 3: plan for the next three years, and and let's talk

929
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 3: about how it's going to go, and and then keep

930
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 3: parroting it back to them, et cetera, and trying to

931
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 3: keep them on their own plan because everybody gets that

932
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 3: you know, shiny object thing, right, et cetera. And you

933
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,320
Speaker 3: know you have to That's what you have to guard against.

934
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 3: You have to be part of that, the guardrails for that.

935
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 3: I will tell you there is in sports, right, no

936
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 3: matter what the sport, there is a progression of of

937
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:34,360
Speaker 3: of how the fandom works.

938
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 10: Right.

939
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 6: The first thing is, you know you're on a losing streak.

940
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 6: It's the player's fault, right.

941
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 3: That goes for a while, right, And then finally, you know,

942
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 3: you get tired of losing and saying that, and you say, oh,

943
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 3: it's the coach's fault, right, the coach must not be coaching, right, right,

944
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 3: That goes for you continue to lose. The next thing

945
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 3: is because it's the GM's fault, right, it's where you

946
00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 3: put together a team. And finally, down at the very

947
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,399
Speaker 3: end of the road, right where there's nobody else to blame, here,

948
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 3: we are the ownership, right, bad ownership. So that's sort

949
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,320
Speaker 3: of how it goes. And the more you lose, the

950
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 3: further down the progression you go.

951
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 6: Right. So I've been all the way through the progression.

952
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,879
Speaker 9: Speaking of uh, you know you said that you never

953
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 9: you never know basketball as much as you know your

954
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 9: GM or your president whatever. Would love to hear to

955
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 9: the extent that you can share like some behind the

956
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 9: scenes about how the wholelyon thing came about.

957
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:31,839
Speaker 7: Because as three people, as.

958
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,839
Speaker 6: Three people, you know what you're no one's ever really

959
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 6: that I recall. I don't recall talking about that.

960
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 9: Because because we've on, we've on obviously Jen's known a

961
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:40,919
Speaker 9: baby Josh and I have known him. He was both

962
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 9: of their ages. We found out when the rest of

963
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:44,359
Speaker 9: the world found out.

964
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't even get a call. Leon was like,

965
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,320
Speaker 2: I'm not anymore all right, thanks.

966
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 6: Well, look, we were coming out of an error. I

967
00:47:55,280 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 6: think you know where we were down that progression.

968
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 3: They and you know I had I did a lot

969
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:09,439
Speaker 3: of of of thinking about about the about the team,

970
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 3: and about the league and et cetera, and how to

971
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 3: try and be successful.

972
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 6: And it really seemed to me.

973
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:21,960
Speaker 3: That the difference between you know, the teams that are

974
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 3: successful and the ones that are unsuccessful is the talent

975
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:31,240
Speaker 3: inside the team, right you guys, that the that's the difference,

976
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,360
Speaker 3: right the the teams that win have have great talent,

977
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,480
Speaker 3: right the they and lots of it, et cetera.

978
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:40,240
Speaker 6: They also have a plan, et cetera.

979
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 3: But the one the hardest thing to do is the

980
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 3: the particularly in the n b A is to attract talent, right,

981
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,439
Speaker 3: to get talent all in one place. So who would

982
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 3: be the best guy you could find in order to

983
00:48:56,120 --> 00:49:00,399
Speaker 3: bring talent to your team? Well, at the time, who

984
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 3: was the number one basketball agent in the n b A.

985
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 3: Leon Rose? Right, I'm like, and I knew Leon I'm like,

986
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 3: I'm going to get Leon.

987
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:11,880
Speaker 6: Rose to do this.

988
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 7: What was that conversation? Like?

989
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:15,240
Speaker 6: It was short?

990
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 3: He was ready, He's like the next I actually talked

991
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 3: to Wes first, right, because those those two are like

992
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 3: a parent the and and Wes like called me back

993
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 3: like an hour latest.

994
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 1: Was there any part of you a little nervous because

995
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 1: he had he was never in that role before.

996
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 3: Well, I used to work in sales and one of

997
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 3: my favorite things that I used to we used to

998
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 3: say in sales is you can't fall off the floor.

999
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 6: Right at that point, we were on the floor.

1000
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 2: That's a fair way to put it.

1001
00:49:57,920 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 5: I like that, That's a good one.

1002
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 7: I remember Leon he was when he said, uh, obviously

1003
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 7: after the fact, after the news came out, he was like,

1004
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 7: I didn't know I would want to do this, but

1005
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:12,320
Speaker 7: this is one place where it's it's a no brainer

1006
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 7: to do it, being in New York, and so I

1007
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 7: remember he was excited. I mean I wasn't excited because

1008
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,320
Speaker 7: don't get through and talk to Liam anymore.

1009
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 2: He's done.

1010
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:24,959
Speaker 7: He's done a good job, and I'm happy. I'm happy

1011
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 7: for him because it's I mean to see him in

1012
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 7: the element he's in now. He looks he looks so comfortable,

1013
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 7: and I don't know, he's just he's been doing a

1014
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 7: great job.

1015
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 6: I agree, you've been doing a great job.

1016
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 2: And it's hard, hard because.

1017
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm gonna say this for like all people

1018
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,840
Speaker 7: in ownership or all in the front office, Like you

1019
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 7: make such great relationships with the players and everybody and

1020
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 7: do all that, and then you gotta make tough decisions. Yeah,

1021
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 7: and I feel like he's such a personal person and

1022
00:50:55,680 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 7: then to make tough decisions that made not now bide

1023
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 7: well with like certain players, but now he wants to

1024
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 7: win just like us, so he's I'm gonna do it

1025
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 7: the best I can to help you guys be successful.

1026
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 7: So I mean it's crazy how you can put that

1027
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 7: aside to make decisions and then once the decisions made

1028
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 7: kind of like bring all together like that.

1029
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:18,360
Speaker 2: That wasn't easy.

1030
00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 9: But where do we sit now relative to that plan

1031
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:25,879
Speaker 9: that you guys spoke about three years ago?

1032
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 7: Like how is it?

1033
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 2: How is it veered?

1034
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,120
Speaker 7: How is it stayed the same?

1035
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 3: We're kind of there, really, I mean, yeah, I mean

1036
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 3: that they yeah, you know, we they actually I think

1037
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 3: you know, Cat was the last It was the sort

1038
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 3: of the last piece, and uh yeah, I me think that.

1039
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 6: You know, we're.

1040
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not expecting any any any significant changes,

1041
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 3: right they h But now it's I think it's all

1042
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:01,919
Speaker 3: about it's all up to these guys and the coach,

1043
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 3: et cetera to make it happen. I don't know, do

1044
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 3: you think we're missing any pieces?

1045
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:10,359
Speaker 2: That's a trap question.

1046
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 6: I don't mean it to.

1047
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:15,200
Speaker 2: No, no, no no.

1048
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 7: I said this the other day, like we have the pieces,

1049
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 7: Like we have everything that we need from like a

1050
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 7: personnel standpoint, like you said, we need to put together

1051
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:32,400
Speaker 7: and that takes time, and then that takes chemistry, that

1052
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 7: takes failure, that takes part of it.

1053
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 2: It's a it's it's a learning experience to kind of

1054
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 2: go through this.

1055
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 7: And so we have the personnel. It's just like, how

1056
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 7: can we just mesh it. We're meshing. I'm not saying

1057
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 7: we're not. We're so disconnected, but like we still got

1058
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 7: to get closer and have more chemistry and be more

1059
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 7: together on the court.

1060
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,640
Speaker 3: And that just comes with time and if we can

1061
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 3: avoid injuries, right, because that messes up the timeline, et cetera.

1062
00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 3: I mean, just getting Mitch back right is you know,

1063
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 3: it's big, right, I mean, but now, I mean nobody's

1064
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,480
Speaker 3: played with Mitch for a year since last May, right,

1065
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:21,279
Speaker 3: they got to get it all figured out, right, and

1066
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 3: and you know, it's it feels like it's kind of

1067
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 3: a puzzle where you know, you change one piece, that

1068
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:34,080
Speaker 3: changes all the other pieces, right, So well we got

1069
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 3: to figure all that out.

1070
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 6: You figure it out on the court.

1071
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 3: I have to say, I think the fans right as

1072
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 3: much as they want it, like you know, every day

1073
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:48,480
Speaker 3: they are on this journey with you, right, they do

1074
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,279
Speaker 3: see it right, they do they right?

1075
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,200
Speaker 6: And I mean I feel it.

1076
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,840
Speaker 3: I feel like the team is growing, growing, growing, and

1077
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,480
Speaker 3: I think the fantasy the same thing.

1078
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I for.

1079
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:05,320
Speaker 7: Sure, and they let us know. Yeah, definitely.

1080
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:09,879
Speaker 6: Can you even go into a restaurant in New York, Yeah,

1081
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:11,320
Speaker 6: I can go. You can go.

1082
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 7: I'm I'm not six five sixty six. I don't I'm

1083
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 7: six two.

1084
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 5: Before you make a joke, I'll let you go.

1085
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 2: I can blend it a little bit throwing a hat.

1086
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:28,359
Speaker 3: I'd tell you there was there was with the hockey team,

1087
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 3: right the I was with Mark Messier one day, it's

1088
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 3: sort of right after he retired.

1089
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:37,320
Speaker 6: And we were.

1090
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 3: It was it was before I think it was before

1091
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 3: the game, and we wanted to get a hot talk, right,

1092
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 3: and so I'm like, Mark, let's just go to the

1093
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 3: hot talk stand in the garden, right.

1116
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 9: when that team is good, it has the biggest impact

1117
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:01,480
Speaker 9: on the city.

1118
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:11,560

1121
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 3: I mean, and and the owners throwing gobs of money

00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 5: be a new thing, because that's not a new thing.

1126
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:41,320
Speaker 5: It's just older than you.

1127
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:48,799
Speaker 3: There was a time, right when the when the Mets,

1128
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:52,040
Speaker 3: you know, when the Mets won the World Series. Right,

1129
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:56,200
Speaker 3: it's still considered one of the most iconic sports, you know,

1130
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 3: moments of all time across all sports, the Mets when

1131
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 3: the World Series.

1132
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 6: Because the Mets were terrible.

1133
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:07,840
Speaker 3: They were they were the they were bottom dwellers forever,

1134
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,879
Speaker 3: and they rose out of out of the muck, right

1135
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 3: the they with this unlikely group of guys, right that

1136
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 3: that ended up winning the World Series that.

1137
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:20,440
Speaker 6: Year in the town went crazy.

1138
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 2: I was really I was really hoping for a Mets

1139
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:24,160
Speaker 2: Yankees World Series.

1140
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, like really because that the city would have been

1141
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 7: on fire for sure, for sure.

1142
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 2: Really cool.

1143
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 3: I'm not a baseball fan, by the way, No, I

1144
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:38,400
Speaker 3: feel they're not not really you know, especially right. I mean,

1145
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:41,040
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to my baseball friends, but it feels like

1146
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,240
Speaker 3: paint drying, like watching paint try.

1147
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 6: I mean, the game takes forever on TV.

1148
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 2: On TV. I think at a game, it's a better experience.

1149
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 1: At a game is as ye baseball and going there

1150
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 1: is that's.

1151
00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's up there.

1152
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:01,120
Speaker 7: But it's not the garden now, not playoffs in the garden.

1153
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:04,560
Speaker 5: No, but it's just like the guarden, like everything is.

1154
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: Basketball is going so fast with that, like every pitch

1155
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:12,040
Speaker 1: like yeah, like as soon as someone the batter makes contact,

1156
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 1: like you hold your breath for a second because you're.

1157
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:16,360
Speaker 5: Like, what's going to happen? Is the home run?

1158
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 7: Is it? Just you just every pitch it's like you

1159
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 7: feel like your heart just.

1160
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 3: They played Boston in the World the right, that's the

1161
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 3: famous Buckner right the thing. Right, So I'm at the

Speaker 6: I looked back at her and said, I love you,

1168
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:58,040
Speaker 6: but you are a waste of a ticket.

1169
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 2: Is crazy?

1170
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,320

Speaker 3: had never been to a hockey game. She was and

1173
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:21,960
Speaker 3: the violence of the game like sort of like took

1174
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,080
Speaker 3: her back, right. And then you know, they took two

1175
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 3: players who were fighting, right, and they and they put

1176
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 3: them in the in the penalty box, right, and and

1177
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 3: the guys are yelling back and forth at each other

1178
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:34,480
Speaker 3: and the penalty boxes.

1179
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:38,760
Speaker 6: She looks over and goes, are they apologizing to each other?

1180
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:43,200

1182
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 6: Yes, New York loves rep. He's coming along.

1183
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 3: He actually you know, she's not fight He fought a

1184
00:59:55,840 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 3: lot last night. But the but he's not fighting as much, right,

1185
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 3: and he's actually making plays and he scored a goal.

1186
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 6: And I mean, you know, I think the kid's got

1187
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 6: a future.

1188
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:10,280
Speaker 2: There you go. The almost asked you if you but

1189
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 2: we did go to the playoff game last year.

1190
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:15,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, we went to to I know we wanted to.

1191
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:16,919
Speaker 5: We want to do a game.

1192
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: But yeah, I told myself, I get to. I tried

1193
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:23,919
Speaker 1: to get to. It was fun one game area at least,

1194
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 1: so I got. I could be left. I could barely

1195
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:27,720
Speaker 1: see where the puck was going.

1196
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 5: But it was fun.

1197
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:29,439
Speaker 2: That's fun.

1198
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 5: It's fun.

1199
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 2: It's fun.

1200
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 7: The one thing that's so different from my point of view,

1201
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:37,520
Speaker 7: like like, but I'm in the game, I don't hear

1202
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,560
Speaker 7: the music or like anything going on. But like when

1203
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 7: you're out the game, you hear all the music being

1204
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:45,000
Speaker 7: played during the game. You hear all the sounds, all

1205
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 7: the stuff. It's a hockey game. It's there's no music

1206
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 7: being played, just you just hear the skates and the puck,

1207
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 7: the the sticks. Like you it's crazy. Oh there's like

1208
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 7: my first hockey game there's there's no music being played.

1209
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 5: Probably bother me like like weird at first.

1210
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:05,000
Speaker 3: Before you joined the team, right, we tried an experiment,

1211
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:10,960
Speaker 3: right they we were playing the Boston Celtics, right, and they.

1212
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:14,120
Speaker 6: And we played.

1213
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 3: We took the first quarter of the game and played nothing,

1214
01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 3: just like you know in high school, like a high

1215
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 3: school even before, with no high school band, just just

1216
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 3: the team playing. It was the weirdest thing, really, it

1217
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,360
Speaker 3: was it was really one of the things was is

1218
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,880
Speaker 3: that you could hear the players a lot better, right

1219
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 3: and Kevin Garnett.

1220
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:43,280
Speaker 5: Experiment. Yeah, you don't realize it.

1221
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, you don't realize how much of a difference it is,

1222
01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:49,880
Speaker 7: Like you like, oh, man, I just.

1223
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna. I didn't.

1224
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:51,840
Speaker 2: I was.

1225
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,840
Speaker 1: I was heated when I figured out that whenever I scored,

1226
01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 1: it was my song. When I scored was every day

1227
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,920
Speaker 1: I'm hustling. I was so mad, and I didn't realize

1228
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,040
Speaker 1: until two years after, Like I've been here for two

1229
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 1: years and I'm just like, wow, that's that's my song.

1230
01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:07,600
Speaker 7: Well that was a song that we used to come

1231
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 7: out to know that before every game we had to

1232
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 7: get changed.

1233
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, changed, And this song.

1234
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 2: Has been been played for before Ryan got there.

1235
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 5: A long time.

1236
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:19,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but not us.

1237
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 1: You don't realize how like in the in the NBA game,

1238
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:28,120
Speaker 1: how the music in the sole go hand in hand.

1239
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 6: I don't know if you know that.

1240
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,040
Speaker 3: I didn't even think about it, but you guys probably

1241

Speaker 3: I mean going to a Knicks game as the the

1242
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 3: is an experience, right, I mean that they and I

1243
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 3: mean and it's a crafted experience we have, you know,

1244
01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 3: we have teams of people that work on what's what's

1245
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 3: called game experience and game presentation and every you know,

1247
01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,840
Speaker 3: it's uh, you know, I think that's part of what

1248
01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:02,400
Speaker 3: makes coming to an NICK game so so much fun, right,

1249
01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just just always something going on, right,

1250
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,840
Speaker 3: We're always trying to keep the fan entertained, et cetera,

1251
01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 3: especially during some of the breaks, especially when like coaches

1252
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,919
Speaker 3: challenges and you just sit there going on and four

1253
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 3: minutes the yeah, what was.

1254
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:20,160
Speaker 1: The It was cool because I didn't know until maybe

1255
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:25,080
Speaker 1: last year, the the who's the what does he play?

1256
01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 1: The actual guy? Yeah, the organ guy, Like I didn't

1257
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 1: know Ray Gristaldi. Yeah, Like I always thought that was

1258
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 1: just like a automated, automated thing.

1259
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:35,560
Speaker 7: I didn't get him.

1260
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 5: Yeah. I never realized last year that he's actually.

1261
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 6: An unbelievable musician.

1262
01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 2: That guy.

1263
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:47,040
Speaker 3: Really he can play anything, right they Uh you know, so,

1264
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:48,919
Speaker 3: I mean you hear it more during the hockey games

1265
01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 3: because there's more chance, more times for the organ to

1266
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:51,840
Speaker 3: be playing.

1267
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 5: Et cetera.

1268
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,960
Speaker 6: But the but that guy is is a fabulous musician.

1269
01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 7: It's a great segue. I just want to know when

1270
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 7: j D in the Straight Shot selling out the Sphere.

1271
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:10,480
Speaker 3: Well, JD in the Straight Shot has been off the

1272
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:14,400
Speaker 3: road since COVID, right, and because and then that and

1273
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 3: Sphere have really, you know, sort of taken me out

1274
01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 3: of it.

1275
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,200
Speaker 6: Right. My hope is that.

1276
01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:26,240
Speaker 3: Maybe over the next year or two things start to

1277
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 3: ease up for me, that I can start to go

1278
01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:29,760
Speaker 3: back to my music.

1279
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:30,520
Speaker 7: Right.

1280
01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:32,680
Speaker 6: But I had a pretty good run.

1281
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 2: You know.

1282
01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:38,600
Speaker 6: We the spent three years opening for the Eagles. That

1283
01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:40,240
Speaker 6: was that was a blast.

1284
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 3: I mean, we went all over the world with with

1285
01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:45,680
Speaker 3: those guys, and it was really fun because we'd be

1286
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:49,440
Speaker 3: we'd be the opening act, right, and opening act for

1287
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:53,160
Speaker 3: the Eagles is like you get up there and you say, Hi,

1288
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:57,439
Speaker 3: we're blah blah blah blah. We're you know, we're we're

1289
01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 3: opening up for the Eagles. They're going on at eight

1290
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 3: o'clock whether we're here or not. So we just listened

1291
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:07,440
Speaker 3: to the music and most of the time you were

1292
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,160
Speaker 3: just talking to the ushers. Right, there's nobody to come

1293
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:13,160
Speaker 3: into the building. Yet by the time you were done playing,

1294
01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 3: you had a little bit of a of an audience.

1295
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 3: But we had so much fun and we really had

1296
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 3: a good time making the music too.

1297
01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 2: I would say, who are your favorite musicians?

1298
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:26,480
Speaker 6: I got a lot of favorite musicians.

1299
01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:28,880
Speaker 3: But we have a guy who's coming to the Garden

1300
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:32,960
Speaker 3: this September who's probably he's maybe my number one. And

1301
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:38,600
Speaker 3: number two is Eric Clapton. I just idolized him as

1302
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 3: as a kid, and I mean his guitar playing is

1303
01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 3: off the charts, put his composition right his whole career.

1304
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 6: He's an incredible artist. So he'd probably be my number one.

1305
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:56,920
Speaker 6: I got. I got friends too are musics.

1306
01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:00,320
Speaker 3: I mean I love all the guys from the goals,

1307
01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,840
Speaker 3: right and uh, you know in the job that i'm

1308
01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:06,000
Speaker 3: and I get to meet a lot of different guys,

1309
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 3: you know, and women artists, right and you know, but

1310
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:15,440
Speaker 3: I have to say, just as a pure fan, Eric

1311
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 3: would probably be my my number one.

1312
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,560
Speaker 7: Real or Rumors is brought to you by bardy Omer

1313
01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:21,160
Speaker 7: Sports Drength.

1314
01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 9: Nothing is more real than the inside perspective that you

1315
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:26,440
Speaker 9: get here on the Roommate Show. So, Jim, what do

1316
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:29,800
Speaker 9: you think has been the biggest misconception about yourself? And

1317
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 9: what's something that as an NBA owner you think the

1318
01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:33,040
Speaker 9: fans might not understand?

1319
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:37,240
Speaker 6: You know, sometimes I have a very hard image. Right.

1320
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 6: They people think that, you know.

1321
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:40,800
Speaker 3: I mean, it's the same thing like I said about,

1322
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 3: you know, growing up in a family company. Right, people

1323
01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 3: think that that you're privileged, right, you don't care and

1324
01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:53,760
Speaker 3: et cetera. I do care, right, I care about about

1325
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,360
Speaker 3: my team, care about my fans, our fans, right, And

1326
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:02,360
Speaker 3: I think most of the fans see it, right, But

1327
01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:08,120
Speaker 3: there are some that that that don't right, and they're loud,

1328
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:13,960
Speaker 3: and the writers are like that too. So but look,

1329
01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 3: I don't need any you know, I don't need any

1330
01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:19,040
Speaker 3: pity with any of that. I don't need to be

1331
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:23,920
Speaker 3: necessarily understood. I mean this is true for everybody. That

1332
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:27,440
Speaker 3: you have a circle of people around you in your life,

1333
01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:30,840
Speaker 3: your family, right, the people who are close to you,

1334
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 3: those are the people you worry about what they think

1335
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 3: of you, right, Those are the people that give you

1336
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 3: the most FEEDBA.

1337
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:37,240
Speaker 6: And the circle gets.

1338
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:40,800
Speaker 3: Wider and wider, and the wider it gets, the less

1339
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:45,520
Speaker 3: you should be concerned. But mostly worry about, you know,

1340
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 3: the people that are closest to you. So I don't

1341
01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 3: worry about the misconceptions.

1342
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:52,800
Speaker 1: So I will say one of the coolest things I've

1343
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:56,000
Speaker 1: seen you do was last year, last year with my

1344
01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 1: seventh year in the NBA, and I'll say this is

1345
01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 1: the fourth team I played for. When we had our

1346
01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 1: sorry thanks, when we had our our last day are

1347
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:07,120
Speaker 1: you know, not interviewed, but like, well, you know our

1348
01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 1: last day of meetings and that you came in and

1349
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:14,920
Speaker 1: thanked us and for for you know, how we played

1350
01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:17,640
Speaker 1: and you know the energy of the city and that

1351
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:19,880
Speaker 1: and that was for me. That's something that stuck to

1352
01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:21,960
Speaker 1: me because I've I've been in l A, I've been

1353
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 1: in New Orleans, Portland. I never had the team owner

1354
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 1: come in and say and say, thank you guys for

1355
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 1: your for your effort.

1356
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 12: You know, I thought that was I'll make sure I

1357
01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 12: do that again, appreciated, But no, I think that was

1358
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 12: we're talking about like the you know, the people don't

1359
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 12: see that, and I see like the the humanity aspect

1360
01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:45,120
Speaker 12: of it.

1361
01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:47,920
Speaker 5: And I thought, for me, that's something obviously happened a

1362
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:48,960
Speaker 5: year ago. Was really cool.

1363
01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:52,160

Speaker 9: Speaking of the sphere, I mean, I think it's probably

1384
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:48,479
Speaker 9: safe to say it's the most innovative and ambitious like

1385
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:50,759
Speaker 9: live entertainment facility.

1386
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:52,920
Speaker 7: Really, Ever, what was that.

1387
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:57,760
Speaker 9: I had to talk us through inception, through like financing,

1388
01:09:57,920 --> 01:09:59,479
Speaker 9: like how does the whole thing come to life? Because

1389
01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:01,200
Speaker 9: it's I can't. It's just a project of that size

1390
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:04,360
Speaker 9: is insane. Well, how long was in in the.

1391
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,680
Speaker 6: Works for about.

1392
01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:11,760
Speaker 3: Well, the actual idea right when it formed, right is

1393
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 3: about six or seven years ago now, right, But it

1394
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:19,200
Speaker 3: was really a culmination. That point was a culmination of

1395
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:25,639
Speaker 3: things that went on for ten years before that. Look

1396
01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 3: this fear that they was an idea that, yes, I

1397
01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:36,920
Speaker 3: mean I came up with, right. Mostly it was about

1398
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:41,680
Speaker 3: what goes on in this fear. That was where I

1399
01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:47,400
Speaker 3: think I was probably most creative. And Madison Square Garden

1400
01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:52,320
Speaker 3: is the busiest arena in the world. It's busy two

1401
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:55,800
Speaker 3: and twenty nights out of the year, which means there's

1402
01:10:55,800 --> 01:11:00,080
Speaker 3: another one hundred and forty five where it's dark. And

1403
01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:03,680
Speaker 3: I wanted to build a place that was busy three

1404
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:07,560
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty five days here, and so that was

1405
01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:10,800
Speaker 3: part of what my thinking was, is well, what would

1406
01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:12,840
Speaker 3: we do for the one hundred.

1407
01:11:12,600 --> 01:11:13,719
Speaker 5: And forty five days?

1408
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:14,519
Speaker 2: Right?

1409
01:11:14,720 --> 01:11:20,720
Speaker 3: And at that time there were developments in technology that

1410
01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:23,760
Speaker 3: were brand new, and I was able to incorporate them

1411
01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:27,599
Speaker 3: all into my thinking. So, for instance, inside of the sphere,

1412
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:32,799
Speaker 3: there's a four acre super resolution screen right that it's

1413
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:37,480
Speaker 3: called a fully immersive surface. It's essentially like wearing goggles,

1414
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:42,040
Speaker 3: but no goggles right everywhere you look at screen, and

1415
01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:46,280
Speaker 3: we create environments with that. And then there was the sound,

1416
01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:50,200
Speaker 3: and then there's haptics. And the whole idea was and

1417
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:54,720
Speaker 3: this is what I think we're achieving, was not to

1418
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 3: create what I call a cinematic event, but to create

1419
01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 3: an experiential event, something.

1420
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 6: That you go in and you just don't watch, you

1421
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,439
Speaker 6: feel right, you feel like you're in it.

1422
01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:12,760
Speaker 3: We have some content that were something that we're going

1423
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,320
Speaker 3: to launch in May that is going to be very

1424
01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:20,120
Speaker 3: what we call experiential and the uh and we have

1425
01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:25,439
Speaker 3: another another project after that that is going to be

1426
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 3: what we call this sort of live experience. That one

1427
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:33,559
Speaker 3: I can talk a little bit more about. The it's

1428
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:41,240
Speaker 3: focusing on five extreme sports and uh So one of

1429
01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 3: the things that these directors did right this last week

1430
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:51,479
Speaker 3: is in uh Dubai, there is a building called the

1431
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:55,800
Speaker 3: Burj Khalifa, Right, it's the biggest building in the world.

1432
01:12:56,360 --> 01:13:00,360
Speaker 3: They went to the very very top of the bergs Khalifa, right,

1433
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:06,160
Speaker 3: put a guy in one of those sky's glide suits, right,

1434
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:12,680
Speaker 3: and he jumped right and they followed him down with

1435
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:17,320
Speaker 3: drones and copters and he had stuff on him, et cetera.

1436
01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:21,760
Speaker 3: And when that ultimately comes to the Sphere, you're going

1437
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:23,640
Speaker 3: to feel like you climbed to the top of the

1438
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:25,839
Speaker 3: bush Khalifa and jumped.

1439
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:27,960
Speaker 6: It's called base jumping.

1440
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 3: I think it's called right in the sky suit they

1441
01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:36,519
Speaker 3: and that's the idea behind the Sphere is to take

1442
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:44,080
Speaker 3: real life, you know, experiences and recreate them inside of

1443
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:45,120
Speaker 3: a venue.

1444
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:48,960
Speaker 9: Like logistics aside from a technology production standpoint, Could you

1445
01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:50,479
Speaker 9: host a next game there? Because I know you guys

1446
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:50,920
Speaker 9: did UFC.

1447
01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:56,120
Speaker 3: No, there won't will I don't think it's just not

1448
01:13:56,479 --> 01:14:00,160
Speaker 3: it's not set up for a basketball game, right, mean,

1449
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 3: it's it's pretty good for boxing and and for for

1450
01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:08,360
Speaker 3: those sports, right But first off, it's it's a theater venue.

1451
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 6: Other words, it's not there's a whole you know, one

1452
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:17,200
Speaker 6: side of it. There's no seats, so you know, it's

1453
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:20,240
Speaker 6: unlikely that we will have an event there.

1454
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:23,760
Speaker 2: Like, whose idea was it to do UFC there? Did

1455
01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:25,880
Speaker 2: they come to you? Yeah?

1456
01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:27,600
Speaker 6: I mean we we went to them. They went to

1457
01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:31,800
Speaker 6: us right the the But it's like almost with.

1458
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,920
Speaker 3: Everybody who's played the Sphere or done something in the

1459
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:39,519
Speaker 3: sphere so far hesitant, and then they came to a

1460
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:42,040
Speaker 3: show and they saw what it could be. Then there

1461
01:14:42,240 --> 01:14:44,960
Speaker 3: and their brain you know in this case was Dana right.

1462
01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:48,599
Speaker 3: I think his brain exploded right the the of all

1463
01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:51,360
Speaker 3: the things that he could do right, and he was

1464
01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:52,720
Speaker 3: hooked off.

1465
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 7: We went raw there w W should be the one

1466
01:14:58,120 --> 01:14:58,920
Speaker 7: that'd be really cool.

1467
01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:01,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was good. I actually I gotta get there.

1468
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:03,519
Speaker 7: You gotta go. You gotta go a long time. I

1469
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 7: mean I haven't been in Vegas a long time.

1470
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:09,120
Speaker 6: Oh for you? How about this summer summer league?

1478
01:15:25,560 --> 01:15:29,360
Speaker 1: the last two years, I think I popped in for

1479
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 1: I had a wind to host a wine dinner.

1480
01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:34,839
Speaker 5: One year, I popped in for like sixteen, sixteen hours.

1481
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 5: Then I had to do another.

1482

Speaker 5: Look at your face.

1520
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:40,880
Speaker 6: I mean you don't. You don't actually move your face

1521
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:43,080
Speaker 6: that much, not like you go like this right, you

1522
01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:44,719
Speaker 6: just move your eyes.

1523
01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 7: You're like yeah, because you guys talk like nonsense, like

1524
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:50,720
Speaker 7: I'm afraid about what you're about this.

1525
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:53,360
Speaker 1: No, I was going to tell you how much as

1526
01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:55,880
Speaker 1: the owner of the governor of the team, confidence does

1527
01:17:55,960 --> 01:17:59,000
Speaker 1: to give in us when we have someone who leads

1528
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,559
Speaker 1: by example like you do, like he took the team

1529
01:18:01,640 --> 01:18:02,320
Speaker 1: friendly deal.

1530
01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:04,479
Speaker 5: He's a captain. He leads by example.

1531
01:18:05,120 --> 01:18:08,600
Speaker 1: Talk about like your confidence in a player like that

1532
01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:10,040
Speaker 1: and building around a player.

1533
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:11,920
Speaker 2: Like that, that was mature. That'sure.

1534
01:18:12,360 --> 01:18:15,519
Speaker 7: You had to give you a little bit that.

1535
01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:16,880
Speaker 5: Well.

1536
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:20,880

1537
01:18:20,960 --> 01:18:23,880
Speaker 3: but I've seen it in you know, I've seen it

1538
01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:25,160
Speaker 3: in all the guys.

1539
01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:27,320
Speaker 6: I mean, yes, I'm I'm.

1540
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:30,040
Speaker 3: Looking for the same things that maybe you're looking for,

1541
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:34,280
Speaker 3: right is, which is, are are you going to sacrifice

1542
01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:37,639
Speaker 3: for your teammates? Are you going to sacrifice to win

1543
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:38,160
Speaker 3: the game?

1544
01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:38,800
Speaker 7: Right?

1545
01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,599
Speaker 6: Are you going to you know, focus on your game

1546
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:43,120
Speaker 6: right in terms of.

1547
01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:49,240
Speaker 3: Everybody else's everybody else's game, right, and you know, and

1548
01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:54,120
Speaker 3: play as a team, right. I mean, look, they are

01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:58,680
Speaker 3: Knicks fans, know. I mean, we've had some great players here, right,

1550
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:03,200
Speaker 3: and I I I love them, but a lot of times,

1551
01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:09,040
Speaker 3: right they play something that I call hero ball. I

1552
01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 3: don't see any here much hero ball on this team.

1553
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,759
Speaker 3: And hero ball is you know I'm gonna I'm gonna

1554
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 3: win the game, right. I mean that pass you made

1555
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 3: out to Og right the in the Memphis game, I

1556
01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:26,360
Speaker 3: mean that's what I mean by not playing hero ball, right,

1557
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:30,720
Speaker 3: the other players I've seen right, Og could have been

1558
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:31,799
Speaker 3: sitting there with nobody.

1559
01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:33,960
Speaker 6: He was not going to get the.

1560
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:38,920
Speaker 3: Ball right the the and and meanwhile our star player

1561
01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,519
Speaker 3: right et cetera would go you know, one against three

1562
01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:46,000
Speaker 3: right the the hero ball right, I can do.

1563
01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:47,640
Speaker 6: You know, it's think I can do this.

1564
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:50,519
Speaker 3: If you think like a team, if you sacrifice it's

1565
01:19:50,680 --> 01:19:54,240
Speaker 3: and and play like a team, you get you get

1566
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:59,920
Speaker 3: you know, outcomes like Memphis, right, and so that's kind

1567
01:19:59,920 --> 01:20:03,439
Speaker 3: of them what I see, yes with with with you know,

1568
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 3: with Jalen being the captain, he I think, you know,

1569
01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:07,880
Speaker 3: I think he epitomizes that.

1570
01:20:07,960 --> 01:20:10,240
Speaker 6: But I also think that the whole team doesn't. I

1571
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:13,000
Speaker 6: see you do it all the time too much.

1572
01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:16,000
Speaker 3: Right, There's got to be a fine line for plays

1573
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:18,280
Speaker 3: because there are times when I see I'm like, why

1574
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:19,400
Speaker 3: didn't you shoot that?

1575
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:21,760
Speaker 7: I got?

1576
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:24,400
Speaker 1: I got shooters around me. Man, they can shoot the ball.

1577
01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 1: I always say the Memphis that the whole play was

1578
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:34,080
Speaker 1: very that was impressive. The past I'm about to say,

1579

1581
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:47,360

1616
01:22:45,320 --> 01:22:51,000

01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:09,800
Speaker 2: I have one more question before we.

1623
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:15,599
Speaker 1: We're talking about sacrifice, your playmaking in the end of games.

1624

Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we're done.

1625

Speaker 1: you the better of.

1633
01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:40,439
Speaker 7: The time to work one hundred percent of who's a

1634
01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:41,320
Speaker 7: better decision making? Then?

1661
01:25:09,200 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 9: years from now, like twenty thirty five. What do you

1662
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:12,840
Speaker 9: what do you think the valuations of an NBA team

1663
01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:13,240
Speaker 9: could be?

1664
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:15,439
Speaker 6: Well, I don't know.

1665
01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:19,439
Speaker 3: I mean that the the you know, it's like just

1666
01:25:19,560 --> 01:25:23,040
Speaker 3: stock price, right, stock price is only important to you?

1667
01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 6: On two days, the day you buy it and the

1668
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 6: day you sell it.

1669
01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:32,360
Speaker 3: Right, I already bought it and I'm not thinking about

1670
01:25:32,479 --> 01:25:34,400
Speaker 3: selling it, so I guess I don't have to worry.

1671
01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:39,439
Speaker 7: That's still though, if I did, your whole family's into

1672
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:43,040
Speaker 7: that in that I think that's like gives you a

1673
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:44,760
Speaker 7: different sense of like pride when it comes with it.

1674
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:46,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, and then you know, I mean, look, to

1675

Speaker 3: work in your family's company is not easy.

1676
01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:51,680
Speaker 2: I know.

1677
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:54,000
Speaker 6: That's you know, that's how I grew up.

1678
01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:57,120
Speaker 3: All your all the eyes are on you, right the

1679
01:25:57,400 --> 01:26:02,240
Speaker 3: the you gotta be better than the average person, right,

1680
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,600
Speaker 3: I mean, otherwise everybody says, well, you just got here

1681
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:07,880
Speaker 3: because of your family, right, so you got to be

1682
01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:12,559
Speaker 3: better and that's the challenge for working in a family company.

1683
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:15,040
Speaker 7: Did you feel any type of like pressure when it

1684
01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:18,360
Speaker 7: comes to when it came to taking your dad's place.

1685
01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:23,080
Speaker 6: Yes, the.

1686
01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:29,759
Speaker 3: You know, I mean only in the last ten years

1687
01:26:30,040 --> 01:26:33,520
Speaker 3: have I really felt like my own person completely.

1688
01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:38,559
Speaker 7: Well, do you think that I'll transfer over to your

1689
01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:40,760
Speaker 7: kids when it's their turn? Or do you think it's

1690
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:43,360
Speaker 7: it's you've kind of made it a little bit easier

1691
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:43,639
Speaker 7: for them.

1692
01:26:44,200 --> 01:26:48,360
Speaker 3: No, it didn't come from my dad, right, He was

1693
01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:52,200
Speaker 3: like he was fine, it came from everybody else. And

1694
01:26:52,240 --> 01:26:54,160
Speaker 3: I don't think I can change that for them. No,

1695
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:57,360
Speaker 3: they have to be ready for that, right, And there's

1696
01:26:57,400 --> 01:26:58,880
Speaker 3: a lot of pressure and you know, the.

1697
01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:01,000
Speaker 6: They're there.

1698
01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:03,760
Speaker 3: I mean, but that's what they're choosing, right, I mean,

1699
01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:06,320
Speaker 3: I don't tell them to do it, right. I mean,

1700
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:08,720
Speaker 3: I'm happy I have I have some of my kids

1705
01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:23,360

Speaker 6: That's that's that's all you really want for your children.

01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:50,439
Speaker 6: It's for them to be happy.

1714
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:52,280
Speaker 7: Talking to three new dads here.

1715
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,680
Speaker 6: So there you go, Well you'll get it.

1716
01:27:57,960 --> 01:27:59,360
Speaker 3: Well, you know what I mean, what you're going to

1717
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:03,840
Speaker 3: see with this with this podcast is that the people

1718
01:28:03,920 --> 01:28:05,879
Speaker 3: were going to watch and listen to this podcast.

1719
01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:08,520
Speaker 6: The most are going to be the writers.

1720
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:09,840
Speaker 5: For sure, they probably they probably.

1721
01:28:11,080 --> 01:28:14,000
Speaker 6: I never ever talked to the writers.

1722
01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:17,360
Speaker 2: Do you want to you?

1723
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:23,320
Speaker 3: Because you know, because they never give it straight, right,

1724
01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:25,759
Speaker 3: I mean, because I mean it's not they're they're writing

1725
01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:29,320
Speaker 3: for for clicks and readers, right, and I'm I'm trying

1726
01:28:29,320 --> 01:28:31,920
Speaker 3: to get a point across, right, and the you know,

1727
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:37,280
Speaker 3: the and they're not always right now, they're not negative,

1728
01:28:37,400 --> 01:28:41,720
Speaker 3: but try having to losing season and see how you know,

1729
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:46,160
Speaker 3: I mean, they're difficult to talk to as it is.

1730
01:28:46,280 --> 01:28:48,000
Speaker 7: I mean, Josh, I've had a wining season, so they

1731
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:48,280
Speaker 7: came here.

1732
01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:52,400
Speaker 6: You really do take a lot of crap here, don't you.

1733
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:56,960
Speaker 1: I was just I was just waiting to become a

1734
01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:59,439
Speaker 1: nick and play with my friends. But this a great

1735
01:28:59,520 --> 01:29:02,600
Speaker 1: organization and to really get the winning the ball, the

1736
01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:05,000
Speaker 1: ball rolling on the winning you know, the winning side.

1737
01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:09,479
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, actually, I mean we got If you

1738
01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:13,439
Speaker 3: win the next two games, you're guaranteed a winning season, exactly.

1739
01:29:15,080 --> 01:29:16,920
Speaker 2: Is that true? Though you haven't went had a winning season?

1740
01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:20,439
Speaker 5: No, no, don't. I don't get to the playoffs.

1741
01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:25,320
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you said winning see winning season, I make

1742
01:29:25,320 --> 01:29:25,799
Speaker 2: the playoffs.

1743
01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:28,320
Speaker 5: I don't think I had a I don't think I

1744
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,320
Speaker 5: had a forty win season until you got here?

1745
01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:32,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, now you got one another.

1746
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:35,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I've got here.

1747
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:40,240
Speaker 1: We've we've won more games, probably won more games since

1748
01:29:40,240 --> 01:29:42,320
Speaker 1: I've been here than in like probably my career.

1749
01:29:44,080 --> 01:29:49,759
Speaker 5: Probably No, I mean what I got here six years?

1750
01:29:50,120 --> 01:29:53,040
Speaker 1: No way, no way, I never got Okay now probably

1751
01:29:53,120 --> 01:29:57,000
Speaker 1: not quite, but it's up, yeah, probably kicking up. I

1752
01:29:57,040 --> 01:29:59,599
Speaker 1: mean I haven't had a never had a forty win season.

1753
01:30:01,160 --> 01:30:01,680
Speaker 6: How many more?

1754
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:05,000
Speaker 3: How many other players are there in the NBA like you?

1755
01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:09,680
Speaker 3: And the way I mean that is that I mean

1756
01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:15,680
Speaker 3: you played, but you know you kind of languished, right,

1757
01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:17,720
Speaker 3: I mean you blossomed here, do you think?

1758
01:30:18,600 --> 01:30:18,840
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1759
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:23,200
Speaker 7: I mean it's I played like that before. But it's.

1760
01:30:25,320 --> 01:30:27,800
Speaker 1: You know, if you're not having a winning team, sometimes

1761
01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:31,840
Speaker 1: like you're winning habits get lost because you're you know,

1762
01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:35,320
Speaker 1: because you're not having any success. But I think that's where,

1763
01:30:36,040 --> 01:30:39,000
Speaker 1: you know, here was like the perfect the perfect storm,

1764
01:30:39,120 --> 01:30:41,800
Speaker 1: so to say, because when I got here, you know,

1765
01:30:41,920 --> 01:30:43,560
Speaker 1: they were kind of gearing up, trying to make it,

1766
01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:46,479
Speaker 1: you know, getting to the playoffs our first time there.

1767
01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:50,280
Speaker 1: And then when you in a winning environment and you

1768
01:30:50,439 --> 01:30:54,080
Speaker 1: have those winning habits, everyone sees it and you kind

1769
01:30:54,120 --> 01:30:57,800
Speaker 1: of excel in it instead of, you know, playing on

1770
01:30:57,840 --> 01:30:59,920
Speaker 1: a team where it's like you're tanking, you're trying to

1771
01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:02,160
Speaker 1: then it's like I have winning.

1772
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 5: Habits, we don't try. Oh yeah, we'll never reach this situation.

1773
01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:10,760
Speaker 3: The we got too much respect for our fan base

1774
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:14,559
Speaker 3: to ever come into a game thinking we want to lose, right, the.

1775
01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:17,960
Speaker 6: Fans deserve better than that.

1776
01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:22,000
Speaker 2: So I think it's cool. I saw something the other day.

1777
01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 7: Even if the team wasn't doing the best right and

1778
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,280
Speaker 7: it's a close game in the fourth quarter, the Garden

1779
01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:31,200
Speaker 7: is loud regardless.

1780
01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:33,760
Speaker 3: I seen games where, you know, like last game of

1781
01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:38,040
Speaker 3: season meets absolutely nothing right, the Garden's up front game.

1782
01:31:38,120 --> 01:31:40,880
Speaker 1: That was my first NICK game. I wish I could

1783
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:42,519
Speaker 1: tell you exactly when it was. I think it was

1784
01:31:42,560 --> 01:31:45,920
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, right before I got drafted. I was

1785
01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:49,720
Speaker 1: in New York, I said courtside, and it was you know,

1786
01:31:49,760 --> 01:31:51,160
Speaker 1: the team was struggling. I think that might have like

1787
01:31:51,200 --> 01:31:54,600
Speaker 1: twenty wins that year, but it was the one of

1788
01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:57,640
Speaker 1: the last games of the year, and I think they

1789
01:31:57,720 --> 01:31:59,680
Speaker 1: might have been playing Philly or something, but it was

1790
01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:02,800
Speaker 1: the game went down to the wire and just the

1791
01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:05,600
Speaker 1: you would have thought it was like, this is like

1792
01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:07,360
Speaker 1: the game to get into the playoffs, Like you would

1793
01:32:07,360 --> 01:32:09,400
Speaker 1: have thought that had everything riding on this game, and

1794
01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm just sitting here like this is this is special,

1795
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:13,800
Speaker 1: this is crazy.

1796
01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:16,240
Speaker 3: That's that's your fan base. That's the fan base in

1797
01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:20,800
Speaker 3: New York. They love basketball, right, they love a great game.

1798
01:32:21,280 --> 01:32:21,519
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1799
01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:22,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1800
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:24,280
Speaker 9: I feel like it's also you're you're a gritty player.

1801
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:27,080
Speaker 9: New Yorkers are inherently gritty. So I feel like, more

1802
01:32:27,160 --> 01:32:29,760
Speaker 9: than any market, a New York fan loves to see

1803
01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:32,479
Speaker 9: a player diving on the floor for loose balls, going after.

1804
01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:36,120
Speaker 7: Shouldn't and he encapsulates.

1805
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:39,320
Speaker 1: For me, it's like I want like if you like,

1806
01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:42,800
Speaker 1: oh like this team and bodies like the city, like

1807
01:32:42,880 --> 01:32:47,000
Speaker 1: I want like, no, you know what, whatever field they

1808
01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:49,200
Speaker 1: you know, whoever the fan is in, like they can

1809
01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:51,320
Speaker 1: sit there and be like I can see, you know,

1810
01:32:51,479 --> 01:32:54,320
Speaker 1: myself and this person I can see like I do

1811
01:32:54,479 --> 01:32:57,720
Speaker 1: this in my respective you know field, but like this

1812
01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:00,200
Speaker 1: person go out that he plays hard, he doesn't give up,

1813
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:03,120
Speaker 1: he sacrificed it. So that's how I want them to

1814
01:33:03,160 --> 01:33:06,200
Speaker 1: see me. I want them to see themselves when they

1815
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:09,560
Speaker 1: see me play. I think that's kind of why I

1816
01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:12,720
Speaker 1: play how I am and in New York. Like you said,

1817
01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:14,720
Speaker 1: it kind of helps that.

1818
01:33:15,880 --> 01:33:17,320
Speaker 7: All right, we got picture of me scrolling.

1819
01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:19,160
Speaker 9: As you guys know, this is where we react to

1820
01:33:19,840 --> 01:33:22,080
Speaker 9: just cool moments from from social or whatever that happened

1821
01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:22,599
Speaker 9: throughout the week.

1822
01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:25,040
Speaker 7: So why don't you introduce this one for us, sir?

1823
01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:30,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, gotta gotta pe out.

1824
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:32,000
Speaker 3: Uh.

1825
01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:35,560
Speaker 2: I was debating on what to call it, but I

1826
01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:38,720
Speaker 2: think the natis is a perfect perfect.

1827
01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:45,080
Speaker 1: Don't don't just say pe, be more specific because it's

1828
01:33:45,120 --> 01:33:47,920
Speaker 1: kind of like it's a Kobe four P thank you, Yes,

1829
01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:52,360
Speaker 1: because like they have the cool GT line that some

1830
01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:55,200
Speaker 1: people have pees for the GT line, which is dope.

1831
01:33:56,240 --> 01:33:57,519
Speaker 5: We have a Kobe PE.

1832
01:33:57,760 --> 01:33:59,639
Speaker 7: That's I think it's like top.

1833
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:01,360
Speaker 2: I think it's pretty cool.

1834
01:34:01,520 --> 01:34:03,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right on the signature.

1835
01:34:05,080 --> 01:34:08,559
Speaker 9: Did you know when you had the opportunity to create

1836
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:10,920
Speaker 9: a pe, did your mind immediately go to, Okay, I'm

1837
01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:12,479
Speaker 9: going to commemorate the national championship.

1838
01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:13,479
Speaker 7: How did that idea come about?

1839
01:34:16,120 --> 01:34:17,880
Speaker 2: It was one of the storylines. I thought it was

1840
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:18,800
Speaker 2: really cool. I wanted to.

1841
01:34:20,400 --> 01:34:24,360
Speaker 7: The cool thing about Nike and the Kobe brand. I

1842
01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:28,719
Speaker 7: figured out that there's a lot of storytelling behind certain shoes.

1843
01:34:30,320 --> 01:34:31,960
Speaker 7: Any shit that comes out, there's just some type of

1844
01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:35,719
Speaker 7: story about it when it comes with at least Kobe's

1845
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:40,639
Speaker 7: and so I kind of want to reflect on how

1846
01:34:41,840 --> 01:34:46,000
Speaker 7: I've gotten to the point I've got and I wouldn't

1847
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:46,360
Speaker 7: be here.

1848
01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:47,200
Speaker 2: Without Nova for sure.

1849
01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:49,360
Speaker 9: This is a random question, but when they do stuff

1850
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:51,439
Speaker 9: with Kobe shoes, I guess in this case, did you

1851
01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:52,799
Speaker 9: have to get permission from Vanessa?

1852
01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:55,080
Speaker 2: I believe so.

1853
01:34:55,200 --> 01:34:58,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, she was like Jalen runs and Natties.

1854
01:34:58,400 --> 01:34:59,040
Speaker 6: I believe, so.

1855
01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:03,880
Speaker 7: She's I really want her to come out with her

1856
01:35:03,960 --> 01:35:07,479
Speaker 7: peace pretty soon, because those were really sick. Those those

1857
01:35:07,560 --> 01:35:09,880
Speaker 7: purple ones, really sick.

1858
01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:14,400
Speaker 1: Demon Our six A demon. That's six a demon right there.

1859
01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:19,600
Speaker 1: That's just for the audio listeners. I just posted a

1860
01:35:19,640 --> 01:35:22,080

2048
01:44:41,080 --> 01:44:41,800
Speaker 5: that boy got it.

2049
01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:45,040
Speaker 1: He got an agin maybe and maybe it's because of

2050
01:44:45,080 --> 01:44:46,960
Speaker 1: his hair, because he has like, you know, full head

2051
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:47,280
Speaker 1: of hair.

01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:50,160
Speaker 5: The dog his head big as hell.

2053
01:44:51,920 --> 01:44:55,639
Speaker 1: So may I hope it's just a hopefully don't body

2054
01:44:55,720 --> 01:44:58,160
Speaker 1: grow into I can't wait at the moment when ha

2055
01:44:58,439 --> 01:45:00,360
Speaker 1: is like ten comes after me said that is it

2056
01:45:00,400 --> 01:45:01,839
Speaker 1: true that on a podcast episode.

2057
01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:04,920
Speaker 7: You said I was the backup kid, he was.

2058
01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:06,360
Speaker 5: He wasn't the backup, but.

2059
01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:10,960
Speaker 2: So so the other one was a backup. One of

2060
01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:11,559
Speaker 2: them is the back up.

2061
01:45:11,600 --> 01:45:13,440
Speaker 7: One of them is the backup exactly.

2062
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:16,840
Speaker 1: And the only reason why he popped out second, but

2063
01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:18,360
Speaker 1: he could he could have formed first.

2064
01:45:18,400 --> 01:45:18,760
Speaker 6: I don't know.

2065
01:45:18,920 --> 01:45:21,320
Speaker 1: So one of them was they can they can flip

2066
01:45:21,360 --> 01:45:24,439
Speaker 1: a coin when they're ten years old and we can

2067
01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:27,920
Speaker 1: be like, all right, this, whoever wins this rock, paper

2068
01:45:27,960 --> 01:45:30,880
Speaker 1: scissors or coin flip will be labeled as the backup

2069
01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:34,160
Speaker 1: for all times. Okay, so they can they can figure

2070
01:45:34,160 --> 01:45:34,800
Speaker 1: it out between them.

2071
01:45:35,160 --> 01:45:37,280

2077
01:45:55,280 --> 01:45:58,439
Speaker 3: Twenty thirty games than he did with us, and I

2078
01:45:58,560 --> 01:46:01,360
