What's the first question I want 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.440 to ask you? Okay, let everybody know what you were 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:12.800 doing right before the league. Right before the league, I 0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:17.160 was actually working in a factory and pretty much just 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:20.160 just trying to just trying to do it for as 0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:21.800 long as I could before the league, just trying to 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.280 have some type of money coming because I knew obviously 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:25.720 I knew I was going to get into the league, 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:29.240 but you know, I need I still needed money, so 0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.359 I was, you know, doing what I had to do 0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.840 just to make ends meet. At what point did you 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:36.800 know or like what age did you know that like 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:39.359 video games like esports or something that you wanted to 0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:43.120 take very seriously. Um, Well, it started. I would always 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.160 play against my friends and I started to realize like 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:49.280 I was way better than them. And then at that 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:50.799 like I just kept playing. Then I got in the 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:55.040 war and then I remember the exact day they announced 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:58.679 the league and I was like, I was like, I 0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:00.200 was talking to my girl. I was like, yeah, I'm 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.880 gonna do this and I'm gonna get into this, and 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:04.239 I told my dad and everything right when it was 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.880 an I'm gonna do this, and you know, surprisingly he 0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:09.320 was all for it. And then I knew this is 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:11.600 where I was was gonna be if I just do 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:15.160 what I had to do. And then did you ever 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:19.720 think that out of all the teams that had been Philly. Uh. 0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:23.040 I remember draft day and honestly, I didn't know who 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.960 was gonna pick me because I never got any like 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:28.240 no one ever came to me or like, oh, we're 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.880 gonna take you. So like I was going to the 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.280 draft not knowing. I feel like I had good interviews 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:37.080 with you know, said teams. Yeah, yeah, I had an 0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:38.920 interview like I had Pistons. I was from I was 0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:40.920 from Michigan, so I thought when the Pistons might take me, 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.400 but they had a higher up. They had like five 0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:45.680 and they were Raymond. I'm like, okay, Well on in 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:46.840 the next one. I had a good interview with the 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.360 Bucks and I'm like okay, I'm the Bucks might be good. 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:52.520 And then they took someone else. Then the Pacers. I 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:54.360 had a good interview, thought they might take me, maybe 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:56.960 the Wizards. And then by that point I was like 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:00.280 I was I didn't know who was gonna take me. 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:02.600 And I remember I gotta actually didn't see the text 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.160 from our from my gmcay and he's gonna take me 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:06.680 because I had my phone looked up to the TV. 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:09.800 And then when they when Philly took me, I was 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.720 kind of shocked because I remember Philly. I actually had 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:16.320 my worst interview because I was because I was I 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:19.040 was sleep I remember Michael. Michael called me and I 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:21.520 would literally sleep and I wake up to my phone 0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:24.040 and I'm like, well he was. He was like did 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.600 you just wake up? And I was like yeah, and 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:28.480 we had our interview, and I just thought I was 0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:30.479 always seppy. I think part of that's because of Jeff 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:33.919 right from like hearing that side of the story and 0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:36.600 then your side. You said that like you kind of 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:38.880 pushed them to be like if Radiance there, like we 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.360 gotta take him. Yeah. I think they were under the 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.760 understanding how good Radiant was. Um. And at that point 0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.320 I was already talking to the sixers and they were 0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:51.279 asking me like who who would you who? Who do 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:53.440 you think? And I was like, well, I mean I 0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:57.479 think it's crazy that Radiant still even on the board. Um. 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.800 I've played against Radiant for a while, got watch him play, 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:04.240 and uh, he was the best player I've I've seen. So, 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:07.800 I mean it was kind of crazy just him being there. 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.640 And I definitely threw it out there, but I think 0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:14.440 they were under this same understanding, like it was crazy 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:16.640 he was still there. Yeah, I remember I was in 0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.000 group tests talking to people people, Oh year at top 0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:20.840 five pick. I was like, I'm telling you, I'm gonna fall. 0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:23.679 I just feel it like no one's giving me. Everyone 0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.040 else I've talked to they're getting like okay some people, 0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.080 and I'm like, no one's giving me an okay. So 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:29.839 I just had this feeling I was gonna fall, and 0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.400 I did, and I'm happy that I did, because I mean, 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:35.760 we got the best team in the league and for 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:38.839 the past two seasons most winning his team. Um okay, 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:45.440 So since season one, what's something that's changed, like dramatically 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.080 about yourself or what's something that you feel that you've 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.599 improved on since season one I've been in the league. Uh, definitely. 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:54.200 The easiest thing I can say is just just being 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:56.960 around the team more because I remember season one. You know, 0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:59.039 it was the first year, so I wasn't really as 0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:01.719 comfortable being around like five new dudes. So I was 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:03.840 just like always in my room just on the game. 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:05.720 I mean, I'm still on the game, but like now 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:07.719 I feel like we're all around each other. When we're 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:09.680 on the game, we're all talking, we all played the 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:12.400 game with each other. So I feel like that is 0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:15.720 the biggest one and also just I remember Kaye used 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:17.400 to tell me, I gotta learn how to talk to 0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:19.520 people because you can't say that Like I could say 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.400 something to Stee's, he might not he might not think 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:23.120 nothing of it. But then I'll say something to like 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.720 to like when we when we had Deanie, I'd say 0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:27.440 something to Deny. He might take it the wrong way. 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:30.440 So I had to pretty much learn how to how 0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:33.200 to talk to different people. And you know what kind 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:37.600 of ticked some people off. Yeah, I remember, Brad and 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:40.039 I just talked about it last night. Actually, when draft 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:42.520 day went down, I had changed my name. For those 0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:43.960 of you that don't know, my name was little Burn 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.760 on PlayStation, and I changed it to Steas in the leagues, 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:48.800 that's what I always wanted to be. And once I 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.640 got drafted, I got drafted fourth round, I messaged Radiant 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:53.640 because people were coming up to me at the afterparty. 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:55.480 There was an after party at the draft and we 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:56.760 were there and people were come up to me and 0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:58.920 they're like, listen, like you got Radiant, who's a dog, 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.800 But like there are no leaders out of that whole 0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.360 team that just got drafted, Like like nobody's gonna say 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:06.360 a word, everybody just really quiet on that team. And 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.320 so I message Radiant, I was like, listen, like this 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:09.880 is on us, man, Like it's it's you and me. 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.640 Like it's weird that it's like worked out that way 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.200 like for the past three seasons now, but I'll never 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.000 forget that. That That was my very first message to him. 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:18.600 And then now we are we are where we are, 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:20.160 you know, one of the best teams in the league 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.840 and been very successful the past two seasons. So it's 0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:24.920 it's it's kind of weird that it all worked out 0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:28.400 like that so far. Yeah, I got a question today 0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:33.120 for Radiant. Somebody asked, You've been a lot of people 0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:36.560 look at you as the best point guard in the league, 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.960 and how do you ever think about that? Like do 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:44.320 you ever think about like yourself as being the best 0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:46.840 point guard? How do you go about that and stuff 0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:51.960 like that. Um, I think about it like I want 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:53.440 to be the best. I want to be just the 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.320 best player in the league, not just the point guard. 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:59.800 And I think that, like I think I've done enough 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.920 off and on the court to like prove myself because 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:08.560 like even even this year, like in Scrimson, I'm struggling shooting, 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:11.240 I'm down there shooting. I'm doing that shooting more than anybody, 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:13.560 more than anybody I think in the league. And it's 0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:18.320 not it's not even I don't do that to to 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:21.440 like try to be the best. Necessarily, I do that 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:24.800 because I want to win, like I want to like 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:26.640 obviously I'm gonna have the ball most of the time, 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.080 so I want to be the best for all of us. 0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:31.960 I want to put our team the best position to win. 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:35.520 And if that's me going down there getting a thousand 0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:37.760 extra shots to night, if that's gonna help us, you know, 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.400 win a championship, then I mean, that's just what I 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:43.240 gotta do. And that's how I always looked at it, Like, yeah, 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:46.840 being the best, it's cool. But like being the best 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:48.840 and not winning, I mean, what does that mean? Like 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:53.120 like Mama Mama won MVP last year and we talked 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:54.360 to him, like we talked to him all the time, 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.160 and he didn't like they didn't win anything, Like, yeah, 0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:58.800 you gotta VP, that's cool. But in the day, they're 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.600 gonna remember that season and what happened at the end 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:03.200 of it, just like you can say, how was the 0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.840 best last year we lost? That's what they're not gonna 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:07.800 remember how good I was there, Gonna remember us losing. 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:11.000 That's what That's what a lot of people don't they miss. 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:13.439 I feel like like all the awards and stuff is cool, 0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:16.800 but like at the end of the day, especially our team, 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:18.400 and I'm sure a lot of teams are like this, 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.520 like getting Coach of the Year last year, getting All 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:25.760 Defensive Team or All two K team, Like all the 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:30.240 awards we got meant nothing. I think maybe like down 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.680 the line, like looking back and telling your kids, like 0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:35.400 that's something you can tell them, but like to us, 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:40.359 like all we'll think about losing Game five in the finals, 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:45.520 not being champions, like we didn't complete our goal. And 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:48.240 I think that's how we'll be every year. Like every 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.560 year for us, like it's championship or bus. We don't 0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:53.839 go into it and say, hey, like if we win 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:56.679 the tip off or go to three out of four championships, 0:09:56.679 --> 0:10:00.280 like that's a good season and theoretically yet is a 0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:02.719 good season, like a lot of teams would want to 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:06.239 be there, But for us, like winning a championship is 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:08.680 what makes it a good season. For us, we always 0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:11.800 feel like we didn't accomplish what our goal is. Um, 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:16.240 so that's just something like we're fortunate to have guys 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:19.520 and like, um, how radiant. And she said, like Steeves 0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:21.040 came to me the first day I met him, and 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.600 we've talked about on the podcast before, Like he's like, man, 0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:27.160 I'll be I'll be the leader. I'll i'll I'll talk 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:29.360 to the guys if you need anything, all this stuff, 0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:33.719 and he's held he's held up to that radiant. I 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.360 got on to him season one and two, like and 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:41.120 he's progressively like moved into a leadership role and like 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.079 this year, like it's night and day from last year. 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.560 And I told him just the other day, like I 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:49.439 thought he was at this like my ceiling for him 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:52.560 and like my view of like what his highest expectation was, 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.959 like he's reached that already, and there's more that he 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.640 can already he can there's more he can reach now, 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:01.200 Like there's not a standard for him, Like he can 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:04.000 become even better of a leader, even better of a player, 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:06.960 even better of a point guard, and like that's for everybody. 0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:10.040 And um, that's something that's really cool with these two. 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:12.840 Uh in general, I feel like is they just they 0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:16.240 continue to progress, Like they don't they don't take being 0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:20.000 like average or or if they need to work on something, 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:23.080 they're down there work, you know, like they deserve everything 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:26.160 they they've accomplished so far. I think the coolest thing 0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:27.760 is that, like, like you said, we don't really care 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:29.600 about the stats and like accolade and stuff like that, 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.360 but like the thing that honestly, obviously I want to 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:34.800 win the whole thing, but something that I like that 0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.079 is affiliated like with us, like with with GC and 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:41.199 and Philly, and like when we get brought up, everybody 0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:43.559 wants to be here. Every time a draft is getting 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:46.520 ready to happen, everybody wants to be in Philly. Um. 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:48.840 Any time I'm in a party or anything like that, 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:50.960 everybody's coming up to me and saying like, hey, like 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:52.520 you know, get me to Philly, Like I want to 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:54.160 be in Philly. And I think like even though it's 0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:56.560 not that's not an accolade, that's not stat like, that's nothing, like, 0:11:56.640 --> 0:11:59.080 that's cool because I get shown like what we've created 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.240 over here. You know, there's some teams are not going 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:03.440 to name any of them, but there's something that no 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:06.920 player wants part of. UM. But then the second like 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.720 Philly comes into their their their mindset, like they're like 0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:11.320 I want to be there because like I know what 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:14.040 they do, whether that's them putting in the work to 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:15.760 win or just the culture that they bring and like 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:18.480 the family oriented, like aspect of it, Like they want 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:19.880 to be here, and I think that's always been something 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:26.240 really cool about us. Um so radiant. Uh. I guess 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:28.520 we'll go a little bit more personal here because a 0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:30.400 lot of the community this is probably one of the 0:12:30.400 --> 0:12:33.120 first times they've seen you in interviews. But you're very 0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:36.520 well reserved and very quiet. But a lot of people 0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:38.400 probably don't know too much about your personal life with 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:44.360 you know, girlfriend, kid, Um, you guys, you want to 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:45.720 you want to touch on that a little bit, Like 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:51.000 I know you have your your little daughter. Um, yeah, 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.400 my daughter's turning three and at the end of this 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:56.880 well probably not, it'll probably be during the season, but 0:12:57.040 --> 0:13:02.040 in August she turns three and my girls, actually she's 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.600 pregnant right now. So we got two on the way, 0:13:05.679 --> 0:13:09.679 got two And I'm calling it. You hide that from 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:12.440 us for some reason all the time, just even the 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:15.280 very first one with Asia. Don't I don't hide it. 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:18.120 I just don't say nothing. Yeah like that, Like if 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:22.000 you asked me, I'll say, yeah, don't bring it up. Yeah. 0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:24.520 I remember season one though, like you know, we'd been 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:26.800 together for a while now, like you know, playing and stuff, 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.800 and then once it came out that you had a kid, 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:30.079 I was like youah, a kid and You're like yeah, 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:31.880 And I was like, do you never want to mention 0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:33.600 a thing? Like we always talk about our failies and stuff. 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:35.520 You're like, no, don't know. I just never came up. 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.520 And I was like, okay, but I've obviously met Asia 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:41.199 a couple of times now. And it's what's weird about 0:13:41.320 --> 0:13:43.840 Radiant for those of you that don't know about him, 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:48.800 is how do I put this? Okay? With like how 0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:51.360 he practices and stuff. Radiance of perfectionists, that's the best 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.000 way to put it. He may not label his a, 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:54.959 but that's what he is. If he's not doing good 0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:57.120 or if he's having a rough couple of weeks of practice, 0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:59.880 he's in the lab trying to work, trying to get better. 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:04.040 Season one, he was not very He wasn't around us 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:06.040 that much. So when we would be hanging out, eating, 0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:07.640 going to get food, whatever it was, you know, he 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:09.520 wasn't really with us. He would always be in his 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.600 room and we always thought that was him not really 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:13.600 like Karen for us that much didn't really like us, 0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:15.960 and we were really worried about that. And then once 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:18.200 we figured out that that wasn't what he was doing 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:20.200 was going into his room and literally just practicing, like 0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:23.360 practicing dribbling by himself, practicing shooting by himself, and so 0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:25.120 like what he was actually doing was when we thought 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:26.960 he didn't really like us, he was actually putting the 0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:30.640 team like before everybody else or before himself, trying to 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:32.280 get better because he knows that we go like as 0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:35.560 far as he goes, and he and that's just how 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:38.480 he is. So but with that being said, even though 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.360 like I obviously really respect that about Radiant, there's been 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:45.560 times where Rating is it love him to death, but 0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:47.320 that's just how Radiant is. That's how he's been brought up. 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:52.320 He's from Michigan, he did the Harvest, and so once 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:54.400 I found out you had a kid, I was like, 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:57.120 this kid go two ways. Either Rating is gonna be 0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:00.560 just just the most hard headed like like father like 0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:03.440 in the world, or is going to be complete softy. 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:05.760 And now every time I've ever seen him with Asia, 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.320 he's the biggest softie in the world. Like she's literally 0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:10.640 got him wrapped around her finger. And it's funny to 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:13.480 see that because like when Radiance with his kid, or 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:16.120 like you know, when Asia's around and he's holding her 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.480 something like that, He's has the biggest grin on his face, 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.480 like he's so happy. Um, And then it's funny because 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:23.160 like then we once we're playing like two k together, 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:25.840 he's like the most serious, like like I don't want 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:29.119 to mess with him at all. Yeah, just two completely 0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:32.560 different people. But I mean, this is what it is. 0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:37.600 How long have you and Lily been together? Uh about 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.520 to be five years? Yeah, I'm going on that too. 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:49.120 How long have you even bailor been together? Six years? So? Wait, 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.720 do we know what this? This? The new kid is 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:56.080 the new child? The girl? Oh man, there are too 0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.000 many girls in the seventies six or g see it 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:01.040 like every like way too many. Bread's got three, he's 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:04.560 got two, got one, you got one? Now, there's too many. 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:06.600 We need to trug getting the boys to carry on 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:09.040 some traditions as well. The funniest thing about it all 0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.600 is like when I found that out, like radiant Squirrel 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:14.480 likes something and I went to her, I went to 0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:16.280 her Twitter and I was read and I was like 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:22.240 what I wouldn't ask. I wouldn't ask Radiant and he 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.040 was like yeah, And I was like, well, what did 0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:27.840 she do? He was like in May. I was like, 0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:32.200 don't like that's next, that's what That's what my sons do. 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.600 So like we're both having a kid the same month. 0:16:34.720 --> 0:16:39.080 Like no, I found out for him. I won't go 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:41.360 into like our full conversation, but like we Radiant and 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:43.520 I will like go and you know, grab somebody eat 0:16:43.560 --> 0:16:46.800 sometimes and and that was like pre like all this coronavirus. 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.640 But we were in the car and I don't know 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:51.920 how like the exact conversation came up, but I brought 0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:56.960 it up and and he's that was the same thing. 0:16:56.960 --> 0:16:58.520 I was like, so you're just not you weren't gonna 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:00.320 tell me or like and it's just like I just 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:03.440 never got brought up. I guess um. But it was 0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:08.080 funny because just like his his reasoning for like you 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:10.440 know how it's all going down. It was pretty interesting. 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:13.119 But uh yeah, we have a another one to welcome 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:14.960 into the seventy six or GC family. Do we have 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:19.240 a name picked out? Yet? Uh? Yeah, but I say, okay, 0:17:19.359 --> 0:17:23.680 it's gonna be a big reveal yeah on Twitter, uh, 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:26.720 any Instagram. I think he might go on Instagram with 0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:31.040 this one. Facebook. I hope this one looks like Lily, 0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:34.200 because Asia looks just like you. They're all gonna looks 0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:38.800 like Asia is like a spitting image of Radiant. Remember 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:41.479 the first time meeting her and at the Franklin and 0:17:41.560 --> 0:17:47.000 she was just crying. She screamed, that's because he didn't 0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:49.439 like anybody. Yeah, he didn't like me at all at first. 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:53.120 But when last year she was like, she's fine, She'll 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:55.200 just run around and do whatever, you know matter. I'm 0:17:55.200 --> 0:17:57.440 excited to see, like when when Cadence like gets around 0:17:57.520 --> 0:17:59.360 like that age and stuff and it's just running around 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:03.240 like she's already around now, but like shit, and Cadence 0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:06.800 looks just like you. I feel like that, which is 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:08.720 not a good which is not a bad thing. I 0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:11.640 was gonna I almost said it's it's not a good thing. 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:16.240 I almost messed up. Who do you think? Pason looks 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:22.760 like maybe a little bit of both. He's got Bailey's height, 0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:29.960 He's definitely got you don't help that. I mean, I'm 0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:39.119 a good five eleven five eleven would shoose but okay, 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:44.639 So so the personal stuff aside, um the league, what 0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:47.800 do you think now, like this gonna be third season? 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.719 Uh SEVENTI six or g see Philly? Um, is it 0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:54.760 anything that you would have expected? Or do you want 0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:57.640 to you expect anything different or you know the past 0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:00.600 couple of teams anything like that. Is there anything like 0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:02.480 like before the league started, or say, right when you 0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:04.919 got drafted by Philly, right, would this have been what 0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:08.000 you expected, like you'd be here three seasons or us 0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:10.720 to be you know, obviously as successful as we've been, 0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.280 anything like that still surreal. Like it when we first 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:17.399 got drafted, everyone saying we were gonna suck, and I 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:20.240 remember thinking, like, I've never been on the team that sucked, 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:23.800 so We're not gonna suck. We're gonna win games, Like 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:27.520 we're not gonna suck, but like I think we were 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:29.560 gonna win this much. Maybe not, but I knew we 0:19:29.560 --> 0:19:33.600
