<v Speaker 1>guys isn't too far away. Dream come true. Philly has

0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:15.640

<v Speaker 1>from Trey Burke on this episode of the Bronzes. Okay,

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>we have officially reached, at least for me, the point

0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 1>in the summer where my mind is like, slow down.

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:47.040
<v Speaker 1>We are moving away too fast. It's almost the end

0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:52.559

<v Speaker 1>hear from Trey Burke in a moment. But I didn't

0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.600
<v Speaker 1>want to touch briefly upon um what I thought was

0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>an awesome story from this past week. Mike Scott back

0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:24.400
<v Speaker 1>in town on August twentieth, that was Tuesday, and he

0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>is truly in every way like the every person guy,

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.720
<v Speaker 1>a man of the people, a guy about town. Hey,

0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:37.000
<v Speaker 1>he did a media breakfast here at the training complex.

0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 1>He then went out to the Philadelphia Art Museum steps.

0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:43.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you saw stuff hopefully on our social feeds

0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:51.079
<v Speaker 1>about that in a a Mister Softy truck, there is

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:55.639
<v Speaker 1>Mike Scott making people's days deservedly so hey for the

0:02:55.680 --> 0:03:00.240
<v Speaker 1>people who came out and braved the just suffocing, eating

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 1>humidity and ninety degree heat, your reward was Mike Scott

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>giving you a Mister Softy product on the house, and

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 1>my cad to master the fine art and technique of

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>the gentle poor pulling the lever inside the Mister Softy truck.

0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>And then he went on to do an appearance at

0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 1>ninety seventy five The Fanatic before heading to the Point

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Breeze Youth Development Basketball League Championship game. Earlier in the year,

0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Scott gave fifteen thousand dollars of his own hard earned

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:51.040
<v Speaker 1>cash the league to cover costs for uniforms, basketball's other equipment, trophies,

0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:54.880
<v Speaker 1>things of that nature. Just a phenomenal gesture by a

0:03:54.960 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 1>truly real, authentic and genuine person. Mike Scott phenomenal ambassador

0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:06.240
<v Speaker 1>for the NBA, for professional athletes, definitely for the seventy

0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 1>six ers at that media breakfast. Earlier in the day,

0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 1>he spoke about his philosophy in terms of engaging with fans,

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:17.600
<v Speaker 1>whether on social media or in the flash. I think

0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 1>they see that, you know, I'm a regular person. I

0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:22.720
<v Speaker 1>just play basketball. Just keep it on this, be real,

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 1>stay genuine. Nothing. I just I don't try to just

0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 1>just do it. I can't really explain it, but I

0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:33.279
<v Speaker 1>don't know, just be yourself. I think people can relate

0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 1>to that. Some athletes they just you know, they're stuck

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:40.080
<v Speaker 1>up boogie and you know, I don't. I don't. I

0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:41.760
<v Speaker 1>don't like none of that. So I just try to

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:43.880
<v Speaker 1>be myself. I wasn't raised like that. I was always

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:47.240
<v Speaker 1>raised to be, you know, respectful, be humble, and also

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.919
<v Speaker 1>be grateful. So it's just that greediness I feel like

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Philly fans can relate to and have that chip on

0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:57.520
<v Speaker 1>my shoulder that I feel like everyone that lives in

0:04:57.520 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 1>this area has. So I feel like kind of late

0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 1>to it a little bit. And again, you can check

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 1>out a bunch of our coverage of Mike Scott's whirlwind

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>tour around town earlier this week on our social feeds.

0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 1>He also wrote a first person article for US that's

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.520
<v Speaker 1>up on sixers dot Com, also on our social feeds

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:19.120
<v Speaker 1>as well, called excited but not satisfied, Mike sharing in

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:22.440
<v Speaker 1>his own words why returning to the seventy Sixers was

0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:26.680
<v Speaker 1>priority number one and his outlook for the upcoming season.

0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Joining Mike Scott for the upcoming season. A gentleman by

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:35.719
<v Speaker 1>the name of Trey Burke, veteran who was the ninth

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:40.320
<v Speaker 1>overall pick in the twenty thirteen NBA Draft. He's played

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 1>for four teams prior to joining the Sixers. Started out

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>with Utah Jazz, played three seasons there, then went to

0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:51.799
<v Speaker 1>the Wizards before joining the Knicks in twenty seventeen eighteen.

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.719
<v Speaker 1>Began last year with the Knicks before landing with the

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Dallas Mavericks to finish the year as part of the

0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Christaps Porzingis trade. Burke fir his career's average just under

0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 1>eleven points, has shot thirty four percent from three point

0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 1>territory and has hit four hundred fifty nearly career three pointers,

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and a guy who was awfully pumped up about being

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.160
<v Speaker 1>a part of the seventy sixers. And that is where

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Trey Burke and I began our chat a few weeks

0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:23.479
<v Speaker 1>ago when he was in town. So, Trey, why don't

0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:26.160
<v Speaker 1>we start by you telling us your thoughts on joining

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:29.680
<v Speaker 1>the seventy six ers, also on joining the seventy sixers.

0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Man dream come true. Philly has been a team and

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:36.640
<v Speaker 1>I've been watching since I was little, obviously with Iverson,

0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:40.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, my favorite player growing up. So when Elvin

0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Brand contacted you know, my agent, you know, tell him

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:46.920
<v Speaker 1>that it was interest, and I was just ready for it,

0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.479
<v Speaker 1>for the trigger to get pulled, and I'm excited to

0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>be here, expecting great things, you know, out of myself

0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 1>and out of the team, and just ready to get

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.839
<v Speaker 1>to work. Let's talk about AI for a second, because

0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:02.080
<v Speaker 1>guys in the league now still talk about him, even

0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:03.960
<v Speaker 1>though the number of people in the league who actually

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 1>played with him or against him or dwindling. Why for

0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:09.800
<v Speaker 1>a young guy coming up, did his game resonate with you?

0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 1>I think it resonates with me because he was six

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:17.480
<v Speaker 1>foot six one doing you know, six nine sixteen type

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:21.120
<v Speaker 1>of things. You know, he was a you know, a

0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:24.480
<v Speaker 1>little guard that was doing giant things. And I think,

0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:27.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, little guards like myself can relate to that

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:30.320
<v Speaker 1>because you always want to be great at anything you

0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:35.280
<v Speaker 1>do and just to see you know how great he was,

0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, throughout his entire career. To see some of

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.240
<v Speaker 1>the performances he put on, you know, it was just

0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>motivation at his finest, you know, influential, probably one of

0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the most influential athletes to ever walk this earth. So

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, every time you get a chance to watch,

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 1>every time I get a chance to watch highlights on

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.000
<v Speaker 1>him or even meet him in person, you know, it's like,

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:59.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, one of those defining moments. And I think

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:01.200
<v Speaker 1>he was one of the ars that helped me mold

0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:04.320
<v Speaker 1>my game because you know, you you know, as you know,

0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 1>as you see one of your favorite players do something,

0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.440
<v Speaker 1>you want to run right outside and do the same thing.

0:08:09.560 --> 0:08:13.400
<v Speaker 1>So he's been a big part of um, you know,

0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:17.440
<v Speaker 1>my growth and basketball. Was there a move or multiple

0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:19.800
<v Speaker 1>moves of his when he went back and watched film

0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 1>that you tried to pick up, tell me about some

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:23.360
<v Speaker 1>of those with the world. I'll always go back to

0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the Jordan move, you know, I know that's probasibly a

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 1>typical one for everybody, but Jordan, Michael Jordan obviously my opinion,

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:35.160
<v Speaker 1>the greatest to ever do it. You know, you know,

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 1>on both ends of the court and iverson being his size,

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, crossing him with the same move two times

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.400
<v Speaker 1>in a row in the same play. You know, they

0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.440
<v Speaker 1>don't see that too often. And you know that right

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:49.480
<v Speaker 1>there just shows you know how great he was, you

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:53.959
<v Speaker 1>know how you know different he was as a player.

0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.320
<v Speaker 1>So I always go back to that move just because

0:08:56.960 --> 0:08:59.320
<v Speaker 1>that's a move that you can use on anybody, you know,

0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:01.520
<v Speaker 1>as long as they feet, you see their feet and

0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you and you time it up right, you know, to

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:06.559
<v Speaker 1>left the right crossover or to right the left crossover

0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 1>is a lethal weapon. Still in twenty nineteen, Elton Brand

0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:13.360
<v Speaker 1>says he thinks you're gonna be a really good fit

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:15.920
<v Speaker 1>for the seventy six ers right now. Why do you

0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 1>think that this is gonna be a very solid match?

0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:20.960
<v Speaker 1>I think it would be a very solid master because

0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:25.240
<v Speaker 1>I think my personality matches this city. You know, the grit,

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.080
<v Speaker 1>the toughness, you know, my narrative, the narrative of my story,

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:32.200
<v Speaker 1>and being always always being an underdog, always being counted out, um,

0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, always stepping up to the challenge with my

0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:39.000
<v Speaker 1>backs against the wall. Though those things, um, those characteristics

0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 1>of myself fits this city. I believe that you know,

0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm a you know, special piece that you know it

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>is added to this team because my skill set, my

0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:52.720
<v Speaker 1>ability to create um for others, and just my quickness

0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and speed as well. And I always go back to

0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:57.440
<v Speaker 1>the grit and toughness. You know, I'm gonna play hard,

0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 1>play a hundred percent, play with one hundred per effort

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 1>and every time I step on the court. And I

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 1>think you know, any fans, um, but it's particular these

0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:11.679
<v Speaker 1>fans would love that about myself. You're at the stage

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:13.559
<v Speaker 1>in your career where you've been in the league for

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 1>multiple seasons. How's your game grown over that time. Where

0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:19.720
<v Speaker 1>do you think have been the biggest growth aries you've experienced.

0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:23.640
<v Speaker 1>I think the biggest growth areas over over the years.

0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 1>My game is my mentality, Um, slowing slowing down things

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:30.079
<v Speaker 1>in my mind. You know. My college coach Alway used

0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.959
<v Speaker 1>to tell me, you know, be slow in the mind,

0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.440
<v Speaker 1>but fasten the body. And I think, you know, the

0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.520
<v Speaker 1>more that I've grown, the older I've gotten, watching film

0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>and you know, working on my weaknesses, trying to turn

0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.160
<v Speaker 1>them into strengths. Um, I've just gotten better and better

0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:47.320
<v Speaker 1>each and every year. Um. You know, I've always just

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 1>been waiting for you know, opportunity to showcase my talents,

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:52.559
<v Speaker 1>and I believe Philly is a city that you know

0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:53.959
<v Speaker 1>it's going to help me do that. You know, it's

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>a team that you know has high expectations to go

0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 1>deep in the playoffs. Um, and I'm just glad to

0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:04.360
<v Speaker 1>be a part of something that's a winning organization. Again.

0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:06.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, not to knock any of the organizations that

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I was with before, but I know there's high expectations here.

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:12.199
<v Speaker 1>We have a lot of talent and we can make

0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:15.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of noise in this league. What can you

0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>learn from having all the different experiences that you've had.

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 1>You've been with several NBA teams, You've had Julia experience

0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:24.880
<v Speaker 1>as well. What can you pull from those experiences that

0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:28.800
<v Speaker 1>it's a marathon. You know, everybody's everybody's journey isn't the same.

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's journey is different, and you have to be willing

0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.199
<v Speaker 1>to continue to be resilient. I think that's a word

0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:40.319
<v Speaker 1>that really defines the nature of who I am is resiliency.

0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, the way I grew up, just some of

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:45.560
<v Speaker 1>the things that I went through on and off the court,

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, just not ever giving up, just continueing to

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:54.000
<v Speaker 1>fight for what you want, and I set goals for myself.

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:55.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, I work hard each and every day to

0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 1>continue to get to those goals. So I'm very excited

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 1>to be here and filling me and I think it's

0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, gonna really work out. Um. I know it's

0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:05.800
<v Speaker 1>a one year deal for now, but I plan on

0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>being here longer than one year. How would you describe

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:10.880
<v Speaker 1>some of the players that you're gonna be playing with? Now,

0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:13.120
<v Speaker 1>give me a rundown if you had to provide a

0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:17.319
<v Speaker 1>scattered report on Let's go Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons first,

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:19.360
<v Speaker 1>two of the young guys, two young old stars on

0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.720
<v Speaker 1>this roster. What are your impressions of them? Then? My

0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:25.520
<v Speaker 1>impressions of Ben and Joel's um sky's the lemon for

0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:27.839
<v Speaker 1>both of those guys. You know, Ben Simmons, he has

0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:31.720
<v Speaker 1>a unique type of um you know, skill set, his

0:12:31.760 --> 0:12:35.199
<v Speaker 1>ability to get to the rooms, ability to draw the defense,

0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:39.439
<v Speaker 1>and he's one of the best passes in the league already. Um.

0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:42.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, with Joel, you know, I think in my opinion,

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:44.880
<v Speaker 1>he is the best big in the league right now,

0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.920
<v Speaker 1>most dominant, you know, forced down there on the block.

0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:51.240
<v Speaker 1>So you know, we we got some real talent on

0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>this team. You know, everybody obviously knows, you know, you

0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:58.280
<v Speaker 1>know those two are the All Stars, but that there's

0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:00.840
<v Speaker 1>a lot that, um, you know, some other guys could

0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:03.000
<v Speaker 1>bring to you know, some of the role players that

0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 1>are a part of his team, you know, obviously without

0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:08.760
<v Speaker 1>being in addition as well, his ability to stretch the floor,

0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:13.080
<v Speaker 1>his versatility on both ends of the court. And we

0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:15.640
<v Speaker 1>know it's not going to be an overnight project. We

0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:17.719
<v Speaker 1>know that it's a process, but you know, I think

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 1>we're moving in the right direction with the pieces we got.

0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>As a fellow veteran in the league, what have you

0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 1>admired about Tobias Harrison's game? What I admire about Tobias

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Harrison's game is his ability to you know, be the

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 1>player that in his mind and his heart he feels

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.240
<v Speaker 1>he is, rather than letting the league tell him who

0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:40.720
<v Speaker 1>he is. He's been through some things as well in

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>this league, has been traded a few times, but you know,

0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 1>everywhere he you know, the places that he's been, he's

0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.640
<v Speaker 1>been nothing less than the All Star. You know, he's

0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:51.360
<v Speaker 1>one of the better players in this league in my

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.959
<v Speaker 1>opinion as well, And I'm excited to play with him too.

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Some guys come in who we don't know a lot about,

0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.640
<v Speaker 1>just like to ask them. Tell something about yourself, whether

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.960
<v Speaker 1>it's basketball related, not related to basketball, just something where

0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:04.319
<v Speaker 1>if you know you put yourself in the mind of

0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a fan, you'd be like, ah, I never knew that

0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:09.880
<v Speaker 1>about that Trey Burke guy. That's kind of interesting. Something

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 1>special about me? I will say, I've been with my

0:14:14.160 --> 0:14:17.280
<v Speaker 1>now wife, she was my girlfriend before since high school.

0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:20.200
<v Speaker 1>So I think that's something that's big for a lot

0:14:20.240 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 1>of players. You know, somebody I've been with, somebody that's

0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 1>been there before all the fame, before any money, before

0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.120
<v Speaker 1>making it to the NBA. I know she got my

0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:34.560
<v Speaker 1>best interests because we've been through thinking things. So that's

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 1>something special about Trey Burke. You know you've been around

0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:41.000
<v Speaker 1>this game while it runs in your family too. What

0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:44.120
<v Speaker 1>is it about basketball that you love the most? What

0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:45.920
<v Speaker 1>it is about basketball I love the most is that

0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:47.920
<v Speaker 1>it's a challenge each and every day. You know, every

0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:52.160
<v Speaker 1>day you got to wake up and ask yourself that question.

0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:54.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm I gonna continue to do this and

0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 1>I will continue to work for just many hours. I

0:14:57.000 --> 0:15:00.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna continue to sacrifice and grind this hard to get

0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.600
<v Speaker 1>to where I want ultimately as a championship, you know,

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and them, I will continue to do all of this too,

0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:09.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, ultimately accomplish all my personal goals as well

0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:12.960
<v Speaker 1>as my team goes and that, you know, that's a

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.360
<v Speaker 1>question that you got to answer every morning. I'm sure

0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 1>every player in the league can vouch for that, you know,

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:20.800
<v Speaker 1>because it's times where you get burnt out. You got

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.280
<v Speaker 1>to figure out how you're gonna continue to find that edge,

0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 1>continue to you know, you know, push yourself to be

0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 1>the best player you can be. It's a consistent challenge

0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.400
<v Speaker 1>wrapping it up to give any stories about guys and

0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:37.200
<v Speaker 1>the teammates. If you've crossed paths with previously, spent time

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.720
<v Speaker 1>with previously, they're now going to reconnect with. Here my man,

0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Kyle O'Quinn I was with I was with Ko and

0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Um in New York with the Knicks and uh, I

0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.160
<v Speaker 1>could just say one of the best, you know teammates.

0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:54.120
<v Speaker 1>You know, a player can have you know, very funny, um,

0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:57.520
<v Speaker 1>very outgoing, very talkative. You know, let s take a

0:15:57.600 --> 0:16:02.400
<v Speaker 1>sheet off, you know for anybody. You know, so I think,

0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:04.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, just to be able to get back with

0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:07.480
<v Speaker 1>him spend some time, you know, with all the new

0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:10.480
<v Speaker 1>guys obviously, but uh, you know, having you know, a

0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:12.480
<v Speaker 1>guy on a team that you already have been on

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:14.840
<v Speaker 1>another team with, you know, it's always great. You know,

0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:17.560
<v Speaker 1>it kind of helps you know, both of you mesh

0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:20.400
<v Speaker 1>and both of you get accustomed to the new, new place.

0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I'm I'm excited about reunite with Ko

0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Trey Burke reflecting on his career, his thoughts on joining

0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 1>the seventy sixers for the upcoming season, and I gotta

0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:35.720
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I'm also really excited just to have Kyle

0:16:36.160 --> 0:16:39.520
<v Speaker 1>a quinn around two offseason pick up by the seventy

0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:42.640
<v Speaker 1>sixers to add some depth to the front court. He

0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.320
<v Speaker 1>was only around for a couple of days back in

0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:48.920
<v Speaker 1>July during the big press conference where he and five

0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:53.320
<v Speaker 1>other seventy sixers were introduced and reintroduced, but his demeanor,

0:16:53.480 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 1>his spirits, the vibes, the fields all seemed really good

0:16:58.440 --> 0:17:01.120
<v Speaker 1>and it seems like o'quinn's going to be just a

0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:05.000
<v Speaker 1>terrific edition of the seventy six ers locker room. All right,
