1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: So the first question we asked everybody who come on

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: the show is when you first got to the league,

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: who was the first person to bust your ass?

4
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 2: Uh? I don't know. I wasn't lying again like crossing none.

5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 2: We played against Memphis Mike Conley.

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,119
Speaker 3: And Mack Elevin and Mack Elevin was he hit you

7
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 3: with the right hand runners?

8
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,639
Speaker 2: He was just like anything that we tried just didn't work.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: Like we tried to double him. He split the pick

10
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 2: and roll. I saw he would spin and do a

11
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 2: right handed floater.

12
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 3: Uh.

13
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 2: He was just tough to guard him. Mike Colley and

14
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 2: Drew Holliday were the two guys that happened.

15
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 3: While he Drew Holliday one of the most slept throne

16
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 3: in my book, Like he been a problem for a

17
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 3: long time, just flying on the ring. I'm talking about

18
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 3: both sides of the ball. But yeah, he tough.

19
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: Oh oh John wall Man, Oh he I think I had.

20
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: We played at Washington and he would just let me

21
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: drive by him and just poked the ball from my

22
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: hand like seven. I think I had eight turnovers that game.

23
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 3: Bro. No, that reminds me my first two years. My

24
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 3: nemesis was Catino Mo I was kind of like a

25
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 3: post up guard, so I would, you know, try and

26
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 3: bang bang bang and score. Exactly what you just said

27
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 3: made me think of that because every time I body

28
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 3: and body and body, he just sit there, take you take.

29
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 3: As soon as I turn to go up, swipe swiite

30
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 3: like he literally was the reason I went home one

31
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 3: summer and I worked on nothing but keeping this ball.

32
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 3: I came back the next year. As soon as he

33
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 3: went to go do it, I protected his score over.

34
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 3: I felt so accomplished, like dude, because just like you said,

35
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 3: it was like he let me do what I want

36
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 3: to do, and as soon as I turn around, he

37
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 3: swiped it. Swipe my best friend. I boyn't real, Like gee,

38
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 3: if you let him swipe that ball from you one

39
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 3: more time, bro, nothing I could do.

40
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 2: And Coach took me up so quick. When I had

41
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 2: like two or three turners, was like back to back

42
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,160

Speaker 2: to start like building what I can and start getting

103
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 2: the attention that we needed because we didn't have all the

104
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: attentions that we have now. So I was kind of

105
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 2: pioneering that sense of going to AI and staying in Canada,

106
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,520

Speaker 3: So that and then that huge like not big, but

110
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 3: like tall, and that talented in high school because I

111
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 3: remember when he first popped on the scene and you

112
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 3: seeing the mixtapes and all that crazy stuff. How was

113
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 3: that for you? And you in high school and look

114
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: like you said you the guy they bring this kid

115
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 3: and say you about to get to play with him?

116
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. It's kind of the

117
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 2: same thing with a want two punch in high schools

118
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: and I had a want two punch in Kentucky and

119
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: want two punches in Denver. So it's just kind of

120
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 2: the same trend over and over. There's been a lot

121
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 2: of fun. And that was a great kid. He worked

122
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 2: so hard, and you know, you expect guys that are

123
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: putting that much work and you see pay off of them.

124
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 4: So you wanted to stay in Canada.

125
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: I know one a couple of like US prep schools

126
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: trying to get you to come to their school and

127
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: stuff like that.

128
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I forget the names, but Huntings and Prepa, Mount

129
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 2: Verden and somewhere else. I think I was the first

130
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: kiddy to stay in Canada and play from here, so

131
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: kind of brought the attention to Canada instead of going

132
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: to the States.

133
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 3: Talk about talk about the sense of pride you taking that, man,

134
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 3: because like y'all really literally exploded, you know what I'm saying.

135
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 3: I'm talking about like the Canadian basketball seeing the type

136
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 3: of players that you've been putting out your outstarting to

137
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 3: really pump out some major talent. To talk about the

138
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 3: pride you guys taking that.

139
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think we've always had the talent. We've

140
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 2: always had guys that can who just never had the

141
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 2: opportunity to do it in front of coaches, you know,

142
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 2: in college and stuff. So we've always had a talent.

143
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 2: But now that we got some guys you know, with

144
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 2: some names and stuff, definitely some youngins ttrying to come up,

145
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 2: starting to work a little harder, you know, start to

146
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 2: do more things and do more necessary things to get

147
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 2: to where they want to go. So it's fun to

148
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 2: be a pioneer and you have these little kids look

149
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: at me and then actually have a chance to have

150
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 2: shot at being the same position.

151
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: How was your experience with the national team? I know you,

152
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,240

00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 2: like with the grown men, like on a legit team.

157
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,560

00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 5: it was like okay.

178
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: And like, you know, this is your country, like when

Speaker 1: they select you, it's like, man, I know when when

180
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: I got selected that high school to play with the

181
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: USA team, it was a different level so real, like man,

182
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: I didn't know they know my name. You know what

183
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: I'm saying, And I know how you feel when you

184
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: come up through that your country actually the tough play

185
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: for you represent your country and you playing with the

186
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: top childent in Canada, Like that's a that's a big step.

187
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 3: Really from what age did you feel like where you

188
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 3: started to be that guy where you got the confidence,

189
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: like you said when you were seven, you're playing with

190
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 3: ten twelve year olds, Like, at what point did it

191
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 3: click for you like not only can I do this?

192
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 3: I could really do this? And like now I'm starting

193
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 3: to get confident about the way that I could do.

194
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 2: This from earlier, from early, even when I was in

195
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: grade like whatever, when I was playing basketball. When I

196
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 2: switched schools from grade three to four and I went

197
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 2: to a different school, I was like, Okay, let's see

198
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 2: what this basketball team dot, you know, let's see who's

199
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: on the team. Because I knew I was best on

200
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:47,959
Speaker 2: my team. So I'm gonna go to a different school.

201
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 2: See grade four. I'm talking about grade four, So I'm

202
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: going to see, Okay, let's play with these guys. And

203
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: I'm hooping with them and I'm giving them everything I

204
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 2: got and it's like they just couldn't hang out with you.

205
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 2: They just couldn't. And so I've always had that, like

206
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: I've always been more skill than there about there and

207
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 2: be able to do different stuff. So it's always about,

208
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 2: you know, just kind of claiming my spot, you know,

209
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: when I'm going to the team and come claiming, Okay,

210
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: I'm better than everybody else that they think should be

211
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: better than me. So it's just all aproved myself. So

212
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 2: I've been trying to prove myself all my life and

213
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 2: that carried over there. We'reing to now.

214
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 3: So that definitely answers the question because for guys like

215
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 3: you that start out like you're saying, you were the

216
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 3: best player your team in third grade, So where did

217
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 3: you get the wherewithal to continue to get better and

218
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 3: to continue to come and work at it when you

219
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 3: already were the better player on You know what, I'm

220
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 3: saying that from a young age because usually it's been

221
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 3: it's not all the time, it's rare, That's what I'm saying.

222
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 3: You are kind of a rarity where the guys that

223
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 3: normally at a young age start out the best, they

224
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 3: don't normally finish that way. You know what I'm saying.

225
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 3: They don't finish doing what you did being on the

226
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 3: Pan American teams. They sometimes some of them do. But

227
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 3: that's what I'm saying, Like what was in you that

228
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 3: made you continue, like you said, to continue to say

229
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 3: I got to prove myself. I gotta do this. But

230
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: you already one of the best players with the most

231
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 3: skilled players on the team.

232
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,719
Speaker 2: First of all, I just put a lot of work

233
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 2: into my craft, Like I'm not just out here just

234
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: trying to get better. I'm trying to like be the

235
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 2: best player every time I step on the court and

236
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: remember who it is, whoever who thinks is better than

237
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 2: me or whatever it is. Like I've always had that

238
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 2: and I've always put the work in first. And come

239
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 2: from Canada. You go to the States and you see,

240
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 2: you know, the guys with the hype. You see the

241
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 2: guys with the mixtapes, you see the guys dunking and

242
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: you know have the crowd hype, and it's like, I

243
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 2: know him better than this kid. I just know that

244
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 2: he has the cameras and support behind them. So they

245
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 2: had a better court system from the beginning. So now

246
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: as a Canadian, I'm coming in knowing them already better

247
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: than these kids. It just matter of me going out

248
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 2: there improving it every single night. And so that's what

249
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 2: I just trying to do. And you know it works

250
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: because I keep that chick on me everywhere I go.

251
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: So here he was talking about like when he was

252
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: coming up, they weren't showing too many games, like college

253
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: games or not a crazy amount of like NBA games

254
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: or stuff like that. You chose to go to Kentucky,

255
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: Like did you see a lot of college games or

256
00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: a lot of other top college things?

257
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 2: Love, I didn't really watch a lot of college. Honestly,

258
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 2: I kind of had like a couple of schools I

259
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 2: was interested in or I liked from Afar, but I

260
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 2: never really looked into it. I was kind of focused

261
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: on the moment where I was at because I can.

262
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 2: I don't really know much about USA college, so I

263
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 2: just learned to do my job, to be honest.

264
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 4: So what made you choose Kentucky?

265
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 2: It was gonna be Kentucky or Oregon?

266
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 4: It was anybody else.

267
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 3: Did you take the visit to organ and did they

268
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 3: take you tod They take you to the showroom, shoe

269
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 3: room had you and hell I was almost I was

270
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 3: almost done when they took you to the shoe boat.

271
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 2: I know it football field. They took me to the renovator.

272
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 2: They have barber shops, where the classes were, they had

273
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 2: they had everything. It was crazy. I'd never seen no.

274
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 4: Facility like that straight up.

275
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: But it was just so far away from home. It

276
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: was a forty hour drive from my parents, and Kentucky

277
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 2: was eight it would be my first year in the States,

278
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 2: and you know, we just wanted to kind of play

279
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: safe and go somewhere closer where they can still visit.

280
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 2: And obviously Kentucky is you know the number one school

281
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 2: in terms of basketball, so I.

282
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 4: Know it worked out as when you chose to go

283
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 4: to Kentucky.

284
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: You know this is the school where all the top

285
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: players go. Y'all, y'all gonna get about five top players

286
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: every single year, so you know, going in with that

287
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: talent and a coach like Calipari and so forth, all

288
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: did you go in and like, all right, I know

289
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: if I do my thing in.

290
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 4: Kentucky, I'm here.

291
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like I know I'm good enough,

292
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 1: Like if I can get to Kentucky and what I

293
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: was doing in Canada works over here too, It's all.

294
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. How did you feel about

295
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 4: going there?

296
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 2: No Pops told me, if I do what I need

297
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 2: to do, I'm only there for a year. Like my

298
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 2: playing the whole time was I need to play how

299
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 2: I want to play now? Like I can't wait. There's

300
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 2: no waiting around because I don't want to be staying

301
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 2: there for two three four years. So I just went

302
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 2: in and did my work early. I had a rough start,

303
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: but coach figured out how me figure it out and everything.

304
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: Else with history, Coach Calipari always speak highly of you,

305
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: like he like you was one of his favorite players.

306
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 2: Better I did put it. I put it to work

307
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 2: for him.

308
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: Every time I talk about you, he always speaks highly

309
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 1: of you with what did you learn that one year

310
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: that you spent at Kentucky.

311
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: He's just he was just hard on me all the time.

312
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 2: You know, he was still on top of me, still

313
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 2: on top of me, you know, from just missing open

314
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 2: shots to you know, knowing that the team allows on

315
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: me to make a shot or be better defensively, or

316
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 2: grabbing the ball with two handstead of one, or just

317
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 2: kind of banding more of me every single night. And

318
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 2: plus I wasn't playing the point. We had Tylerant, we

319
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 2: had Brisco, so I had to be that guy that

320
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: would stretch the floor and be able to knock down shots.

321
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 2: So I'll swing the two guards and that kind of

322
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: changed my game and changed how everybody looked at me,

323
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 2: And oh he could shoot like that. We didn't know.

324
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 2: Now he's a combo.

325
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 3: You know.

326
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 2: He kind of stretched my game and you showed more

327
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 2: of it. Even though people say he helped me back,

328
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: because he definitely helped me back from handling the ball,

329
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: but he got me to get my shot and.

330
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 3: All our colleges US back and he ain't a college

331
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 3: because he played the high school. But all that, anybody

332
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 3: that was the man, you may be like, yeah, I

333
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 3: could have did a little bit more, but you know

334
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 3: it could have a little bit more.

335
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 4: Could you rather take away your shots or take away

336
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 4: your drill?

337
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 2: Noah, No, I see I'm not complaining.

338
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: That's a good point though. So you decided to come out.

339
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: Did you work out for a lot of teams?

340
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 3: No?

341
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 2: I don't work there for fourteens.

342
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: See look, look there you go. He was like, y'all

343
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 3: to the Golden Boys, y'all when it said it did

344
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: then got wind and died, got talked to nicely and

345
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 3: all of this stuff. Like I had to go to

346
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 3: like eighteen nineteen workouts. Yeah, I was on the move.

347
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 3: I was all y'all boys, taking just a couple of flights.

348
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 4: Did you think you was gonna get drafted by somebody else?

349
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 2: Yes? So I mean logically, Simmons going one, ingrewing two,

350
00:14:55,160 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 2: and then it was gonna be Boston, Phoenix, Minnesota, New

351
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 2: Orleans and then Denver. I only worked out for Boston, Phoenix,

352
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 2: New Orleans in Minnesota, so I didn't even know, like

353
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 2: I didn't work out for Denver, right.

354
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 4: Like that though, all the teams that you don't work

355
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 4: out for.

356
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: Everybody kick you like man, you refuse to work out

357
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: for the Clippers, and they picked anyway, true.

358
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: Man, I don't know. So they took Jillen Brown. They

359
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: needed a wing, so this Jailen Brown for Boston. They

360
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 2: took Dragon Bender Phoenix, so it could have been me

361
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 2: and Book in the backcourt. Minnesota had a Wiggans Zachavine Towns.

362
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 2: They took Chris Done. Then Pelicans took Buddy and then

363
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 2: that's why I was like, okay, where am I going?

364
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 3: Like right?

365
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 2: Never took me next?

366
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 3: Oh, hold up, though they could have been. Oh, y'all

367
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 3: would have been ahead of the whole like y'all would

368
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 3: have y'all would have been y'all would have been like

369
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 3: right up there with the light Skin Association duos right there,

370
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 3: just killers like the splash Brother. They would have to

371
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 3: get y'all nickname you and the deep book out there.

372
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 2: Man, could have been a lot of fun.

373
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: That would have been a whole lot of whole lot

374
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: of So you in Denver, did the Eric catch you

375
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: when you got out of the altitude.

376
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 2: The air still catches me. I go up the stairs

377
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 2: of my house. I'm like cool.

378
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: I always wondered like the Denver players, did they have

379
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: an advantage because they work out and they live and

380
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: they play, so they then when they go to other

381
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: stags do it do they be just like extra in shape?

382
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 4: No?

383
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 2: No, we do for sure. When teams come to Denver,

384
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 2: like they in the first five minutes to be tired.

385
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we know that. We know that. We felt

386
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 3: that before.

387
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 4: Oh so the bubble took you all advantage away home?

388
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean I don't think about the air

389
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: as much like that. I just you know what I'm saying.

390
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 2: I just going there? Who straight up there?

391
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 4: So Denver, how do you like them? I love them

392
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 4: plays right.

393
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, lovely And you know it's low key, it's not

394
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: too much, it's not too crowded, like still move around

395
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: and I got to place like five minutes froment. So

396
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm just chilling, man. I'm just cool, and

397
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 2: I love where I'm at.

398
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 1: Your first couple of years, I feel like you was

399
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: trying to find it. He was looking for you, was

400
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: looking for your rhythm. You was looking for your time.

401
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 4: Right now, it's like you got your time.

402
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 3: What changed?

403
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 2: I think just picking my spots better. There's a balance

404
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 2: between scoring and passing and facilitating as a point guard,

405
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 2: you know, and as a scoring point guard, you gotta like,

406
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 2: I know, I have Joker, you know, who can pass

407
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,719
Speaker 2: it and run offense. But it's just in terms of

408
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 2: like winnings got to be priority at all times because

409
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 2: there's so much other factors that you don't want to

410
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 2: let you know, flott your mind. Like d team, there's

411
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 2: only one ball. We got a lot of guys like

412
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 2: who you want everybody have fun and I want to

413
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 2: be a guy that you know, my team is enjoyed

414
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: playing with, you know. So sometimes when I got to

415
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: sacrifice a few shots or a couple of rhythm shots

416
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,239
Speaker 2: for you know, to get going for Joker, to get

417
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 2: a post up, for an easy one, for a couple

418
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 2: of guys that come off the bench, for them to

419
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 2: get the rhythm, you know, then I gotta do that

420
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 2: as a point And a lot of people don't see

421
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 2: that as the sacrifst I gotta make. They say, why

422
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: ain't you going, ma, you know, why aren't you doing

423
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 2: this more? It's like, because you know, there's so many

424
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 2: other other factors that go into it, that come into

425
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 2: winning the game, you know. So that's why I'm just

426
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 2: trying to pick my spotsport Will Barton. He's kind of

427
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: my vent in the sense he told me that, you know,

428
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 2: in the Bubble, you know, if the team's gotta go in,

429
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 2: you know, let let him keep going, you know, don't

430
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 2: don't try to force a shot too much. Let the

431
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 2: team roll. And then when the game gets late, you know,

432
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 2: then you and Joker can try to find whatever you

433
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 2: need to find. And that really helped because when the

434
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: team had it going, the whole bench started to pick up

435
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 2: and the guys came in with this and it was

436
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 2: just like this kind of this momentum that kept going.

437
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 2: So it's still learning process for me. I'm still learning.

438
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 2: I'm still going to grow, I'm going to have my

439
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 2: option downs. But it's been a whole lot of fun

440
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: to go through this lesson.

441
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: So let's talk about this experience you had at the Bubble.

442
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: You know, this is history and the make and that

443
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: you play that a lot of your highlights and spent

444
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: to be shown years and years to come, Like we

445
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: me and my Homeboys was argon which highlight they gonna

446
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: put on there, the one.

447
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 4: With the three sixty or the or the other one.

448
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,679
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Which one was your favorite?

449
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: I like the three sixty. I like the three sixty layup.

450
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: I thought that was sweet right there? That was that

451
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: was mine?

452
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 3: Right, Nah, I'm not I didn't have a play I had.

453
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,719
Speaker 3: I liked the mentality that just was taking over. I

454
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 3: was like, dude, this is the definition of a walking bucket,

455
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 3: young boy. Young boy. You know you play two K,

459
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 3: I was just like, yo, I didn't know he had

460
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 3: this much. And it was like, you showed me a

461
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 3: whole other level right while we were just sitting there,

462
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 3: I mean everybody, basically, you showed everybody your whole other level. Right.

463
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 4: We were just watching them up a couple of blocks

464
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 4: up performance in the bubble, Like I had to figure

465

00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 4: But what was your experience, Like, how was the bubble

470
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 4: for you.

471
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,959
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. I can't complain. When

472
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: I was out there, Who've been having fun? We was winning,

473
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 2: But it was just like there was no distractions for me.

474
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 2: There was no I got to go talk to people,

475
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 2: I got to go do something. It was just now

476
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 2: who this is why I love who? Go back to

477
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 2: my room, eat sleep like you said it on two

478
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: K like this that like just hill my teammates and

479
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 2: go back and hoop. So I kept that, like every

480
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 2: single day I was playing basketball, and I wanted to

481
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: have a mentality every time I stepped on the court,

482
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 2: practice for the game. And I kept that and you

483
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: know that worked for me. So I was able to

484
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 2: not just have a streak of staying locked in, but

485
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 2: I was able to like have a goal of being

486
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 2: locked in every single game.

487
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: You know, at first, when we started looking at the bubble,

488
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: it looked like the best players at the AAU turnament.

489
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 4: Did it feel like AU type vibe?

490
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 3: Like how world? You know what I'm saying?

491
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I ast each other every day.

492
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 1: I think I seen the video after Dynovill had fifty five,

493
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: and You're like, look, I got to see this ship.

494
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 4: I gotta walk past. Yeah, bus fifty five on us.

495
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: How was that to see the guys after you play

496
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: them and just be around and just see everybody.

497
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 2: No, it was cool. It was cool because I got

498
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 2: to hang out with some guys from other teams and

499
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 2: then you know, go and play them the next day

500
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. So no, I think the NBA's

501
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: players definitely got closer and like it wasn't ideal for anybody,

502
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 2: but at the same time, it was an experience and

503
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 2: it was once in a lifetime experience and it was

504
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 2: a lot of fun to be able to go through

505
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,239
Speaker 2: that and see guys that he's about to play them,

506
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,880
Speaker 2: and have the family is over as the rounds got

507
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 2: later and you know, just play basketball. I was really

508
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 2: the only reason why we're there. So it was a

509
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 2: lot of fun, man, And I know, I wish I

510
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 2: could go back and try to know correct some things

511
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 2: to be out there playing more. But wait till next year.

512
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 3: You guys will continue to battle back from you know,

513
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 3: three to one, and it's pretty much you know, you

514
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 3: go back to that hotel three and one, you human,

515
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 3: at some point it crossed your mind like were about

516
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 3: to go home, Well, like you know what I'm saying, like,

517
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 3: what did you learn about yourself and your teammates to

518
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 3: just push y'all through that.

519
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 2: I think we spread myself with how good we are. No,

520
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: everyone knows we got one of the deepest team, but

521
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 2: we really got one of the best teams, like one

522
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 2: of the closest teams in terms of how we hand

523
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 2: each other off the court, and how much fun we

524
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: have and how we moved the ball and how much

525
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 2: guys get in out the game. Like like when I

526
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 2: was we was down to one and then we went

527
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 2: down three one next day, I was like, if we

528
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 2: if my room had so much boxes and shoes and stuff,

529
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 2: and I was like, right. I was like, I did

530
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 2: not want to pack. I was procrastinating packing the whole time,

531
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 2: and I was looking in the room like if we

532
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: lose this game, I got to pack this whole room up.

533
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 2: And that I just kept that. So I went to

534
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 2: the next game. I went to the game, I'm not packing.

535
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 2: I don't want to want to pack.

536
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 3: And so we want to not packing with the better cry.

537
00:22:59,080 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 4: We want.

538
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 2: We won game fine, and I just kept that. Rea'm

539
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 2: still down package. So that was a lot of fun.

540
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 2: I just got to keep those little goals and those

541
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 2: little check marks in your mind, and like I said,

542
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 2: we surprise ourself, you know, we surprise everybody. And that's

543
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 2: what we've been doing. That's what I've been doing my

544
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 2: whole life, and just trying and prove everybody wrong. And

545
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 2: now we got the target on our back and we

546
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 2: defend it.

547
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 3: So yeah, how was it to be like in real

548
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 3: time when you were there in the bubble and you

549
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 3: and Donovan were doing what y'all were doing in that series?

550
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 3: Like how was that? Were y'all talking to each other because,

551
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 3: like you said, y'all can see each other, but like

552
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 3: like when it was really literally going on, Like how

553
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,239
Speaker 3: what was that feeling like? Because that was like one

554
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 3: of the sickest and all time great duels in the

555
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,679
Speaker 3: playoff series that you know y'all put on. Y'all are

556
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 3: part of history right there, like back and forth forty

557
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 3: forty fifty, Like, how was that to be the focal

558
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 3: point of that duel?

559
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. It was just it's

560
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 2: crazy when you put your mind to like just doing

561
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 2: whatever it takes to win, everything else kind of falls

562
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 2: into place. And then I get into the zone of

563
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 2: just not missing and the team relying on shooting and everything,

564
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 2: and we couldn't get a stop. That's the biggest he couldn't.

565
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 2: We couldn't, Like nobody can stop each other. So we

566
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 2: come down. I come down here, hit two threes in

567
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 2: a row, and he come down and hit two threes

568
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 2: in the row. And then I come down and make

569
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: a pass and joking against level and he come down

570
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 2: throw a loved to Rudy or something. It was just

571
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 2: like back and forth. We just couldn't stop each other.

572
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: It was It was crazy when when you go back

573
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 2: and yeah, it was so live.

574
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 3: Dude, like me as a fan, former player, we sitting

575
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,240

00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 3: just killing like it was crazy.

579
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,239
Speaker 2: The only thing I wish is if there was fans there.

580
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,719
Speaker 3: That's what that's That was the only thing, because you know,

581
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 3: you when you get that fan somebody might did something

582
00:24:53,640 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 3: extra crazy. Being right now, How was how was that?

583
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:02,280

Speaker 3: and still are going bananas over what y'all just did.

586
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 3: How have y'all been received by the community and by

587
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 3: the Nuggets nation.

588
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 2: No exactly how you would expect the man, it's no.

589
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 2: Fans are crazy. We got some of the best fans

590
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 2: in the world. They're so committed. And you know, when

591
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 2: I got there four years ago, there wasn't you know,

592
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 2: you could jump from seat to seat a little bit.

593
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,239
Speaker 2: You're going the highway at two o'clock, three o'clock. There

594
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 2: there was no rush. Right now, it's like he's just

595
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 2: growing in every every possible way. It's cool to see,

596
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 2: cool to watch the development.

597
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: When you was in the bubble, you was wearing these

598
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: special shoes with statements and stuff that really meant something

599
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 1: to you.

600
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 4: What made you do the whole shoot thing and what

601
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 4: inspired that?

602
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 2: Well, I started wearing them when we went down three

603
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 2: to one. I got them customer to play in and

604
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 2: I never really got to plan them or picked the

605
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 2: plan them, and you know, I just I wanted to

606
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 2: wear them to keep fighting, knowing that we're gonna lose,

607
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 2: We're gonna go, you know, with the message're gonna go

608
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 2: with the band, and we kept win and I just

609
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 2: kept wearing them, wearing them. They were kind of worn

610
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 2: out from the bottom, but inside to wear them for

611
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 2: one more game.

612
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 3: You know.

613
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 2: That's when Game six happened. And now it's gonna kept

614
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 2: usimp to me, anytime I wear these shoes, I'm on

615
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 2: play as hard as I can, you know, miss or

616
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 2: make you know, no matter of the outcome, I'm just

617
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 2: gonna play as hard as I can get the game

618
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 2: that I can give these shoes that and I can

619
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 2: honor the people on the shoes with how hard I play.

620
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 2: So that kind of kept me going deep down. And

621
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 2: you know, the emotional post game was just all everything

622
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: built up, everything from as a black brother talking to

623
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 2: another black brother, you know, just everything that happens, everything

624
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 2: that we see that we can't always say the way

625
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 2: we want to say. You know, that was my one

626
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 2: way of being able to express that.

627
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 3: I think all of us, you know, like you said,

628
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 3: from brother to brother, we all felt that. Bro. Like

629
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 3: when I sat down Washington, you know, you could see

630
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 3: that you were getting overwhelmed with emotions. And it's just

631
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 3: like you said, like it's being in that spot, like

632
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 3: it puts us in a peculiar situation where it doesn't

633
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 3: matter what we say, it's going to be criticized. It's

634
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 3: going to be a lightning ride for controversy on either side.

635
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,959
Speaker 3: So it's like sometimes we stuck not being able to,

636
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,120
Speaker 3: you know, use our voice the way we would really

637
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 3: want to naturally, because you got to go through all

638
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 3: these channels to make sure you being PC and not

639
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 3: about to you know, destroy yourself and all this stuff.

640
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 3: But I think we all definitely felt felt that moment

641
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 3: and we was with you on that, man, and that

642
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 3: was a huge moment. And you know, for you to

Speaker 3: rep Breonna Taylor like that, man, we salute you for

644
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 3: going out there and doing it that way.

645
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, it was a devil ado after scoring fifty.

646
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 4: All these emotions, all that stuff.

Speaker 3: Tell me what you do as far as like to

648
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,639

00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 3: and you've been one of the most durable guys. You

650
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 3: play a lot of minutes for your team, and you

651
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 3: play all of the games, like as a rookie you

652
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 3: did you started team, but you still played in all

653
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 3: eighty two games. Like, yeah, everybody, we know the grind

654
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,199
Speaker 3: that you know an eighty two game season is with

655
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,359

656
00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,720

Speaker 3: keep keep pace with everything being one of the guys

658
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 3: that said, you know, top half of the league and

659
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 3: minutes played, but still being doable and being being available

660
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 3: most of the games like that, because that's not an

661
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 3: easy feet I.

662
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 2: Think I do a lot of it my mind. I

663
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 2: do a lot of stretching. I think a lot of

664
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 2: players like they'll get the training and they'll just do

665
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 2: you know, the manual stretches, you know that they always do.

666
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 2: I do a little more deeper stretches where it's kind

667
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 2: of they bring the kung fu into it, you know,

668
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 2: so you know, my dad will I'll lead them against

669
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: the wall and by my leg on my dad's shoulder,

670
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 2: and you know, I'm trying to see how how I

671
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 2: can go and my leg is like all the way

672
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 2: up to almost to my head, and you know, it's

673
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 2: different stuff like that, man, where you got to stretch

674
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 2: your mind and not limit yourself, because you know, you

675
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 2: limit yourself, you kind of like fall into this trap

676
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 2: of you know, Okay, my knee hurts. I don't want

677
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 2: to push it, you know, I don't want to do that.

678
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 2: But for me, it's like I see it as a

679
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 2: challenge is how can I get better? How can I

680
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 2: go out there and still do what I need to do.

681
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 2: So I just try to telling myself everywhere I go

682
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 2: and do a whole lot of cold topping, a whole

683
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 2: lot of icing and heat and try to stay warm.

00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 2: to beat on me and and pushed me around, and

754
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 2: they really got me. I was obviously more, obviously more talented,

755
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,000

00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 3: like he was so solid. Boy, tell me how great

780
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 3: it was to play for coach Maloone because I feel

781
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 3: like he kind of flies under the radar as one

782
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 3: of the best coaches out there, and he and he

783
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,719
Speaker 3: has great relationships with his players and stuff. I actually

784
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 3: worked with his father, Brendan Malone, so I know him

785
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 3: a little bit better than I know your coach Michael Malone.

786
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 3: But everything that I've seen from yeah, coach Brendan Malone,

787
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 3: the man that's the that's the man right there, that

788
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 3: is all his potstive man in them.

789
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 4: Like you got like a whole I actually worked with

790
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 4: his father. You know.

791
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,160

793
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 3: trying to come at me. But now tell me how

794
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 3: that was getting to play for coach Malone and getting

795
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 3: to know him.

796
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 2: That's cool, man, Like that was my fourth year, my

797
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 2: fifth year and just growing together and growing from racking

798
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 2: up Gary to starting over the mirror too, almost making

799
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 2: the playoffs, to making the playoffs and losing to losing

800
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:13,959

803
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 2: a lot of trust to me, put a lot of

804
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 2: trust in his players, and you know, as almost to

805
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 2: play defense. You know, he doesn't really try to say

806
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 2: too much. You know, it's been a lot of fun

807
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 2: to gain that trust from a coach that was willing

808
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 2: to give it.

809
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,800

Speaker 3: This way, this way you're gonna get you going going

874
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,959
Speaker 3: around and get the social media.

875
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 1: Now, Uh, start bench cut, Steve Nash, h Bence Carter,

876
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: Uh McGrady.

877
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 6: Is it Raptors McGrady or is it Atlanto Great Orlando McGrady?

878
00:37:55,560 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 3: Uh? Because team Max right there when he just left

879
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 3: around two.

880
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,439
Speaker 2: You want to talk about a bucket.

881
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 3: I had to guard, so said, ah, that boy with

882
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 3: hall On Wills, boy.

883
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:19,320
Speaker 2: BC was like my favorite player, Like I enjoyed watching

884
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 2: like it was BC MJ. Like those are my two

885
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 2: favorite players growing up. So it's hard for me to

886
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,800
Speaker 2: In terms of talent, I probably say Steve and McGrady,

887
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 2: But in terms of favorite player, I'm gonna say Evince.

888
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna avoid the question.

889
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 3: Like that he came he came up right after that

890
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 3: man went between the legs and made it, made him

891
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 3: big time in Canada. You cannot argue with that.

892
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 4: Who are your favorite five NBA players?

893
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:47,520

894
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,839

00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:09,720
Speaker 3: c v Roy.

900
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to say, Steph and favorite probably put

901
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 2: team back into the MMM, Matt five.

902
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: Man when you came up, who was you looking at

903
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 1: the patting your game after?

904
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 4: Who was the couple of.

905
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: Players that you was like, Man, I want to play

906
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: like that or a couples that you might have seen that.

907
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: She was like, man, I want to get some of

908
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: that in my game.

909
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:40,320
Speaker 2: Uh, because my shot. I did watch a lot of stuff.

910
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: I watched a lot of Derrick Rose, just the way

911
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 2: he would get to the rim. I know, his explosiveness

912
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 2: is a whole different type of story, but the way

913
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 2: he gets to the rim and use all that Ray

914
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 2: Kyrie handle. But I would always try to emulate, like

915
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 2: I would always try to like come up with my

916
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 2: own style, Like I always I play a lot of

917
00:39:58,000 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 2: one on one, like a lot of one on one,

918
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 2: so I've always tried to.

919
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 3: That's refreshing to here because I don't think kids do

920
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 3: that enough. Like how we used to use can't go

921
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 3: to court top of the key I grew.

922
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 2: I grew up on the court right across the streets.

923
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 2: Like I played one on one all day every day

924
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 2: against anybody hurt, so I'd be doing different moves of

925
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 2: one dribel, two dribble, five drills, whatever you're playing. I've

926
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 2: always try to come up with certain stuff that you know,

927
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 2: only people can say, Oh, Jamal and he does that stuff,

928
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,399
Speaker 2: or he does this stuff, or you know, he.

929
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,879
Speaker 1: Makes you see other players and you add what they add,

930
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: what they have to your game with you added in

931
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 1: the style that works for you. You know everybody can. Yeah,

932
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: I used the Steve Smith, but all I didn't use

933
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: it as how he used it.

934
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 3: You know. Committee that's interesting to hear you say, b Roy,

935
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 3: because I was like when I was working at NBA TV,

936
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 3: we were going back and forth trying to figure out

937
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 3: who your game reminded us of, like what player, And

938
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 3: the first person I was saying was Gilbert Arenas, because

939
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,959
Speaker 3: like you got the size like of a combo guard

940
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 3: six four or not, not like a six one sixty

941
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 3: two point guard, but like you got the size to

942
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 3: where any of those guys is six two sixty one.

943
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 3: They have problems defending, you know, contesting your shots and

944
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 3: stuff like that, the same way Gil was. He was

945
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 3: a problem, Like he could shoot over people. He was

946
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 3: a little bit stronger than the most point guards. And

947
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 3: then he he had that in between game like you do.

948
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 3: But then saying b Roy was like I might want

949
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,919
Speaker 3: to say him more than even Gil because like Gil

950
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 3: was a little bit more, but like b Roy, y'all

951
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 3: got like that pace and that tempo is very similar,

952
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 3: and it may be Roy makes a lot more sense.

953
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was. He was like he was so fun

954
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:38,879
Speaker 2: to watch man.

955
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 3: He was another person I had to check like he could.

956
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 2: He could post up guards if you want to, you

957
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 2: can step up shooting three like he was tough. I

958
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 2: wish you didn't got hurt. That's crazy.

959
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, excluding you tell me your top five Canadian.

960
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 2: Players I find players ever?

961
00:41:56,440 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, Steve, uh, I feel I feel like I'm doing

962
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 7: the dishonor if I exclude anybody.

963
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 3: Now it's like, you know, Flat mentioned that they get

964
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:15,520
