66
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: I got a best friend from Lancy, Michigan. Yeah, he's

67
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: from Lancy, Michigan, but he grew up in East Saint Louis,

68
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: and man, we've been best friends since like fifth grade.

69
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: And I know, like the different parts of Michigan. And

70
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 1: like when you came up, who did you like look

71
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: up or that was somebody who was famous, somebody that

72
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: don't nobody know. It's probably be somebody from the hood

73
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 1: that you've just seen. But just talk about more about

74
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: where you're from.

75
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: Uh, First of all, my grandfather he's from Saint Louis,

76
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 2: so I'm familiar with Saint Louis, and he's Saint Louis

77
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: real with shit. It's kind of similar to East Saint

78
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 2: Louis far as it being small predominantly black, it is

79
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 2: probably like ninety eight percent black. Like average house incomes

80
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 2: like fifteen to twenty grand So just from that standpoint,

81
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 2: is very similar. But like people I looked up to

82
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: growing up, I had to say, my grandma, she raised shit,

83
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 2: twelve kids, including me, most of them in the projects,

84
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: and they say they money bought a house.

85
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

86
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 2: When I came along, she treated me just like her

87
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: her kids. So you know, I would say her because

88
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: back then when a lot of people that she was

89
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 2: watching TV that you looked up to, you know what

90
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,480

92
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 2: but he was like he who but he was more

93
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: like a street due.

00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: He was like in and out and I'm saying, got

95
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 3: locked up. They had nur lives, you know what I mean.

96
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 5: I went to NBA camp with Robert w Yeah, that

99
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 2: you know, unfortunate situation, man.

00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 3: But Yeah, that was kind of it.

101
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: Then, you know, like being right up the street from Chicago,

102
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: a lot of dudes come down there.

103

Speaker 2: Yeah, like you see them dudes like growing up. But

108
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: it wasn't too many people on the positive know that

109
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: you've seen. It's more like who I don't want to

Speaker 4: how was that for you?

114
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 3: For me, that shit was like eye opening.

115
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 2: You know, always been going to Chicago since I was

116
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: a kid, but just being there and that in that school,

117
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: you know, just seeing a different type of people, you know,

118
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 2: they backgrounds they come from and shit like that. All

119
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: I seen was people like struggling people, no money.

120
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 3: You know y'all know y'all from the South Side and

121
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 3: the East Saint Louis, So you know.

122
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: It's a different environment you see how you know, people

123
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: interact with each other, interact with their families and shit

124

Speaker 2: like that.

125
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,600

00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 3: It was different for me too.

127
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,680

Speaker 3: real good?

221
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,400

00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: before the draft.

223
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,280

Speaker 2: a good man, that's what's up.

230
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,720

Speaker 3: And like changing your habits and stuff.

340
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 2: I think when I loved New York and I went

341
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: to Denver and I started having all the injuries and

342
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 2: shit trying to figure out. I'm like, damn working hard,

343
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 2: taking care of my body. I don't know what's going on.

344
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 2: So I was talking to this one lady and she

345
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 2: was like, man, you should try being veg you know

346
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. It's good, like with inflammation in your

347
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: body and recovering and shit.

348
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 3: So I tried it out.

349
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: And that two years I had I had just had

350
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 2: hip surgery, right, I remember that, and I was out

351
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 2: for the season. So I started like right around that time,

352
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 2: and then I came back. It's like I hit the

353
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 2: ground running like I never had the surgery. I had

354
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: one of my best years. So I was like, I'm

355
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 2: gonna keep doing it, but that shi is just so

356
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 2: hard to do. I did it for two years. Ships

357
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: just so hard to do consistently. While you're playing traveling

358
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 2: team gotta get you special meals and you laying, you

359
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 2: gotta go find something to eat.

360
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 3: They might be one in the morning. You know, vegan

361
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 3: spots open one of them.

362
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 4: I ain't cooking, so what you so so like, what

363
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 4: is like, what is a meal playing for you?

364
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 3: Look like. I was actually rehabbing out here in La

365
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 3: so you know, here's easy.

366
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: Everywhere you go it's vegan spots. So it was easy

367
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 2: when out here in Denver too, But on the road

368
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 2: I had to find like Peter or whatever. Dad, we

369
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 2: had got into a little big thing. Well they got

370
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 2: into a big thing. Rather, I was fishing and it

371
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: got like a million some hits on ESPN. I had

372
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 2: caught a big ass fish and I seen a three

373
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 2: pound They hit me like I thought you was big,

374
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: and I'm like, I ain't eating not just I had

375
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: to go fishing, like to fishounds fish.

376
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 3: That was going crazy on me.

377
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 2: So I'm like, man, I just met I just met

378
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 2: with them, so you know, see what was good. And

379
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 2: they told me about this app called Happy Cow. So

380
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 2: every city you go to, it is pretty much you know,

381
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: they gotta show all the vegan spots in every city.

382
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 3: So that was like my thing. That's that's dope. I

383
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 3: got two years of that.

384
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 2: I'm like, man, I can't keep doing this right now.

385
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: I got to be least pascatarian or something. Time I'm

386
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 2: done hooping and I go back.

387
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: Okay, So I know you've been to a few teams

388
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: how you and you had injuries. I know how hard

389
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: it is to just continue with the injuries and you

390
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: be down to yourself, like man, I can't especially being

391
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: out for a whole season.

392
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 2: The fact I felt when you did the playership in

393
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 2: your article? That was the best I told Chris, that

394
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: was the best one I read.

395
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. Just y'all too. You know

396
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. You can relate more. You know what

397
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 3: I'm saying.

398
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 2: Then having the injuries and shit, I know you had

399
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 2: the injuries and you was out and you said you

400
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: at the crib just like damn. I felt like that too.

401
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 2: I went out the league. But I'm at the crib

402
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: for the whole year. You ain't hooping, so people ain't

403
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 2: really checking for you. And I'm in Denver, I'm at

404
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 2: the crib like damn. So I'm just like trying to

405
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 2: find shit. The past time I started reading books. I

406
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 2: ain't never read books. I'm reading books just like trying

407
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 2: to soak up knowledge, saying doing other shit, keep my

408
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 2: mind off of it. That was the type of ship's

409
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 2: plenty of times. I had two hip surgeries. Both times

410
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 2: like damn, I don't even know when you first come back.

411
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 2: You ain't moving, the saying you're hurting every day.

412
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 3: I'm like, might be dying. It might be right then.

413
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 2: Like the first I had my first surgery, like that's

414
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 2: when I was still youngest. I'm like that, I ain't

415
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 2: even made that much bread. I'm like, I don't know

416
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 2: what I'm gonna do.

417
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, contracts, contract time come up. You want to perform

418
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: and you want to show that you worked everything, and

419
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 1: pressure just be.

420
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: Up on you. Yeah, pressure that ship.

421
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 5: That's hard for you to kind of fight that off.

422
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: And you know, like being in your situation, the only

423
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 2: pressure in your family kind of doing that.

424
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 3: So people don't really understand, like you're playing ball.

425
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 2: You should be happy, you know what I'm saying, Like

426
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 2: that's everybody there, Like I wish I.

427
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 3: Was doing that. You want to be one man, right.

428
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 4: That's what's up though, Like you started, so you start

429
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 4: reading books, you got in the art like brother and grew.

430
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what I'm saying. He didn't.

431
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 4: He didn't super grew, like just from your whole Instagram

432
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 4: being coming to chilling with you, vibing with y'all. Like, Okay,

433
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 4: I'm like Wilson, you know what I'm saying, You didn't

434
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 4: kind of spread out a little bit.

435
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: You know, you gotta find yourself, and shit, ain't no

436
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 2: better way than going to a slower paced city like

437
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: Demnver come from New York the injuries and shit, you

438
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,439
Speaker 2: ain't in all the choice about to find yourself and

439
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 2: see what you like and try to figure that out.

440
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: Being in the NBA, you get to see the world,

441
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: you get to see coaches, you know where we're from.

442
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 3: You kind of you.

443
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 1: Gotta gotta be hard, or you gotta be tough and

444
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: stuff like that, or you can't like art, you can't

445
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: like going to the ballet or just do certain stuff.

446
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: And when you get kids, that kind of soften you

447
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: up a little bit more. What's your experience for coming

448
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 1: from some place like that? And then get to see

449
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: the world and be like, man, it's beautiful everywhere.

450
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 3: Man, that ship is weird.

517
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 2: And once I figured like my way around, like I

519
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 2: can't do it. But like after I figured my way around,

520
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: then Shane ho got everything like this American now, so

521
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:26,520

Speaker 3: Over a minute. That was doing the lockout, doing the lockout.

530
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 3: Then they lifted the lockout and I had to stay

531
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 3: and there they made it.

532
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 2: They made everybody stay left and everybody had to stay.

533
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 3: I'm like, damn got out of there. For facts. I

534
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 3: was surprised as he even came in the first place.

535
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 4: I was too. To be honest, I was surprised. I

536
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 4: mean that whole that whole time was real.

537
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 2: Was weird, you know what I'm saying. There was a

538
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 2: lot of you know what I'm saying people only one

539
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 2: at the time. He was the only super Bell you know.

540
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 2: Everybody else was like me j R. Aaron Brooks like that,

541
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 2: Gerald Green. Yeah, I was a proud when he said

542
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 2: he was coming in the city. You went to it trash.

543
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 2: He was over there, like you know, there were enough

544
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 2: time difference over there, so if you're on one side,

545
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 2: it's the same time. So we flew over there were

546
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 2: laying like around three of folks. I already pitched dark.

547
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, you're terrible. As it's close

548
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,840

549
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 2: Kong Fu movies and shit with the dudes and shit

550
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: look like that.

551
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 4: The Wilson that came into the league, the young Wilson

552
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 4: that was you know, kind of in your own zone.

553
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 4: You didn't really do too much, you know, you was

554
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 4: cautious of people and stuff like that. To now you

555
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 4: got all these different worldly experiences, You into different things

556
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 4: that you probably growing up never thought coming from Ben Holler, like,

557
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be doing a B and C at this

558
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 4: point when I get this old.

559
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 3: So so, how did you get from point A to

560
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 3: point B? Man?

561
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 2: I think just over time, just mess on many people,

562
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 2: and I play with the Knicks and from traveling, you

563
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, hooping and all that. I think,

564
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 2: just trying different stuff, like if I'm in a new city,

565
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,959
Speaker 2: just trying different food, or if I get invited here,

566
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 2: just you know what I'm saying, take the time just

567
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,120
Speaker 2: to go and you know what I'm saying, learning or experience.

568
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: You know, the first time I went to an orchestra,

569
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: I was invited and I was like, and I think

570
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 2: they was playing like Beaeto whenever I never and I

571
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 2: knew heard Beay told me for like the name, but

572
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 2: I never really knew.

573
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 3: What it was. I don't know if it was a

574
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 3: guy or a group. You know what I'm saying. I

575
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 3: never knew And the orchestra they was playing.

576
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 2: Beeto and I'm like the same bag, Like you know

577
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, just looking around the room and just

578
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 2: I could see how they get the vibe, like how

579
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: we listen to like your favorite rap or your favorite

580
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:51,959
Speaker 2: song or artists, and they had that same type of vibeing.

581
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 2: They probably wentn't dancing like we danced a viobing the head,

582
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 2: but they had a vibe they was enjoying it. I'm

583
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 2: like this in the same bag, you know what I'm saying.

584
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 2: So I started like going to different shows. I just

585
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,560

625
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,439
Speaker 2: But it's like they don't even know no better, Like

626
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 2: they just speaking on what they know and what they

627
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 2: seeing because they ain't been nowhere when they experienced nothing.

628
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: And it ain't even sometimes they ain't even they fought though,

629
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 2: because you got people it's like half and half. You

630
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 2: got people that just don't want to do nothing else.

631
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 2: But then you got people don't even know how to

632
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 2: if they wanted to, you know what I'm saying, because

633
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 2: it ain't no resources. You know what I'm saying, they

634
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 2: ain't got They ain't got no money.

635
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 3: They even experienced that. You know what I'm saying.

636
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 2: The only thing they can experience is like social media

637
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 2: and you know, media just pumping into certain ship like

638
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 2: they on't gonna show you so much insane with the

639
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 2: reality TV. So all they see is like certain ships.

640
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 2: So they ain't even got no outlet to even think.

641
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 1: Different, to do different. Yeah, all they scared too scared.

00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 2: they brought it out.

681
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 3: It was like a girl drink looking like that. I

00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 5: So when you was coming up, who did you like?

684
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 5: Patting your game?

685
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 2: After my whole I got love hate damn who Like

686
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 2: it's crazy because I watched certain players, But i'd be

687
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,959
Speaker 2: out my grandma. She that's who really loved ball. My

688
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 2: grandma loved the Bulls. So she watched basketball faithfully. So

689
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 2: when I come home, she'd be already got a game.

690
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 2: Even to this day, she knows all the stats, all

691
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 2: the players. So she talked about his basketball. Sometimes I'd

692
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 2: be at the like I'm asleep.

693
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 3: I don't want.

694
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 2: To question that. I know all you can ask about

695
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler. She don't know everything. It could be Lebron.

696
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 3: She gonna know who hurts. She don't know.

697
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 2: When I was growing up, she she loved who. So

698
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 2: she loves Jordan. So I come home, she already watching

699
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: the game. That's how I got into the game. I'd

700
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 2: be outside playing ball, but I'd never really be in

701
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 2: the crib washing it that much like that. So I

702
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 2: just was kind of like hooping and I kind of

703
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 2: I was late blooming, so like I never like patting

704
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 2: my game. I like players, but I never was like

705
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: trying to be like a player to take side hooping, like.

706
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 5: I try to take something from Yeah.

707
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 3: I ain't do that until I got older.

708
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 1: So when when you got older, who was the person

709
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 1: he was? Like, Man, I see something in him that

710
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: I could see myself.

711
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 3: I ain't in front.

712
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 2: It's the most uncommon thing, but I like Jamal Mashburn.

713
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 2: I thought he was so cold for whatever reason, I

714
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 2: just thought he was. I just thought he was better

715
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 2: than area. I'm like, I love.

716
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 1: He still he went athletic or nothing like that no more?

717
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: And was I'm talking about one game busting my ass

718
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: word Like Jamal Masburn one of my favorite players too

719
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: coming up.

720
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 5: I watched his career coming up like.

721
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: He was a dog dog and if he went and

722
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: got hurt like later on, where he still could have

723
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: kept some a little bit of that athlete of the

724
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: village man killing even.

725
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: More I liked him a lot. I liked Ghill them too.

726
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 2: Probably was was it? And then like Scottie because like

727
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,479
Speaker 2: I played both sides, no offense.

728
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was kind of like, yeah, that's one thing

729
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: I really liked about your game.

730
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 3: Off the rip.

731
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: I've seen how you play defense and offense, like you

732
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: compete on both sides of the ball.

733
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 5: A lot of people don't do that. I was the

734
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 5: player like that.

735
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: My defense was way ahead of this time before it's

736
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: caught up. I was eighteen years old coming straight out

737
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: of high school, and I was going the best player.

738
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 5: They brought me off the bench to guard.

739
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: The Kobe's the guard nets, and I'm eighteen straight out

740
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: of high school. So for that, that's like a big achievement.

741
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: That made me feel like I was like validated.

742
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, nah facts, And like you said before your time

743
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 2: to go from Kobe to guardnet, Yeah, that's tough.

744
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 4: So you played both basically in both generations. Before was

745
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 4: this whole three pointer. It was like, you know, five

746
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 4: man then four out guys like you're basically a four

747
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 4: man now. You know you played three and four, but

748
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 4: you I've seen you play a lot of four and

749
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 4: you know all of the rules are going against the

750
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 4: defenders and stuff like that. What you feel about playing

751
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 4: in both climates went from where it was kind of

752
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 4: like you don't really shoot three, now like shoot all

753
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 4: the threes you want to shoot.

754
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 3: That's the best thing.

755
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 2: It was crazy for I never really shot threes when

756
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 2: I first got in the league. You know, it's like

757
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 2: Zekra's old school. So we had Zebra at the power

758
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 2: forward and any of the five, so it was like

759
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 2: more traditional, you know what I mean. And the next

760
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 2: year they fire. We got d'An Toni. He used to

761
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 2: take me out the game for not shooting three, like

762
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 2: you gotta shoot it. That's really how I started shooting

763
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 2: threes like that. But to answer your question, I think

764
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 2: I like the evolution of the game. Just from a

765
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 2: fan standpoint, it's, you know, it's exciting to watch. You know,

766
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 2: you watch a Steph who really ain't he a deep

767
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 2: miles he and Lebron, He like a regular dude walking

768
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 2: down the street. If you ain't know that was tough,

769
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 2: wouldn't even think maybe he's a hoop, you know what

770
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 2: I'm saying. But to see him go out there, let's

771
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 2: go forty to shoot from half THEMN to half court.

772
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 3: That shouldn't make.

773
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 2: He he more like relatable to the average NBA.

774
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 3: Fan than a Lebron or Vince Card. You know what

775
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 3: I'm saying.

776
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, a guy who play a

777
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 2: butter rim So I like, like, I love it from

778
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 2: that standpoint, but just defensively, it's tough.

779
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 3: You know, you gotta guard Katie. You can't really touch

780
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 3: him or like, and don't see James going to the

781
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 3: rams like he hits you first. I like it.

782
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 2: I mean for him, you know what I'm saying. It's

783
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 2: good for him the way he use it, But he

784
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 2: hits you first. Then you get up on him. They

785
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 2: call a file for the slightest touch. It's like, that's

786
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,959
Speaker 2: that's tough for anybody, you know what I'm saying, especially

787
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 2: if you're defender.

788
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 3: Like that's how you make your money. Yeah, that's how

789
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 3: you make your money.

790
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 4: So right now, with Harden doing what he does, that's

791
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 4: just amazing. I tell people all the time, you know,

792
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 4: that's like the hardest conversation right now.

793
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 3: How would you go on and what would you do? Care?

794
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 4: I say, first, I'm a foul them real good and hard,

795
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,239
Speaker 4: and I'm like, you know, cause clearly all of the

796
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 4: defensive schemes, all the patterns, whatever people been doing, it

797
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 4: ain't been working.

798
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 3: You now, if you follow them all right, Dann, it

799
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 3: might get kicked out the game. I might have to.

800
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 4: I might have to do that though, Like I'm gonna

801
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 4: have to give him one to really, like you're not

802
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 4: about to really just he be embarrassing these people by

803
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 4: step back.

804
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 3: Then they letting him travel.

805
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 4: Now he could do a double step back to say

806
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 4: legal and you see.

807
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 3: It, like come on, but like I'm you don't seen

808
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 3: me do it. I'm gonna have to get me one.

809
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to and then let him know, Yeah,

810
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be here all night, just like you going

811
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 3: for fifty.

812
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to use all six of these real

813
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 4: hard on you and hope that like at some point

814
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 4: he like, all right, I don't want to hit me

815
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 4: no more. I'm gonna chill, like hopefully I'm gonna pray

816
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 4: on that. Because all of this games and everything, it

817
00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 4: ain't really nothing.

818
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 3: We literally did everything you do, not on the ball, shadow.

819
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 2: And shadow and pressing full court, put different defenders on

820
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: his crazy. He still had thirty seven, but it was

821
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 2: the way he got his thirty seven though.

822
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: It was tough ye to back and that's all you

823
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: can ask for to get a win like that, because

824
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: in this league, man, people are so good.

825
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 5: You can't stop.

826
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. It's hard to be with the

827
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 3: new rules. Is defender.

828
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 2: To be a one on one defender, you can't. You

829
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 2: gotta have a good defensive team. You gotta have people

830
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 2: behind you.

831
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 5: That's why I like what Corey Brewer was doing.

832
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: Like I'll be seeing other teams just let him take

833
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: the ball out and dribble down court. And I'm like, no,

834
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: I'm finna let him use every inch of energy he

835
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: got in his body.

836
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 5: Feel Spin Movie all the way down.

837
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna give you so Yeah, I'm gonna give

838
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: him so much where you're gonna have to use so

839
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: much energy just to slow you down a little bit.

840
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: To get you to slow down, I trying to get

841
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: an offense where you got to catch your breath to

842
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: pass it off.

843
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 3: I've been watching.

844
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 2: I'm like, d I want to see how you're gonna

845
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 2: be by time the playoffs come. They should be straight

846
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 2: with Chris Party. I mean, really, you could argue if

847
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 2: you didn't get hurt.

848
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 3: Last year they might have won, you know.

849
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 4: I mean for me, that's the only thing he got left,

850
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 4: like because you know last year he stepped up to me.

851
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 4: I want to see him go crazy in the playoffs.

852
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 4: That's the only thing he has done to me. Like

853
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 4: is because early in the career and he was missing it. Okay,

854
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 4: see when they got to the finals and then the

855
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 4: other series. You know, it's been questions. But like last year,

856
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,479
Speaker 4: I felt like he was there. I felt like he

857
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 4: was he was hooping, But like I want to see

858
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 4: him go, like how he going bananas right now? Like

859
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 4: nobody I want to see him do this in the

860
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 4: playoffs because nobody still can't guard you.

861
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 2: I know it's different, but still I think Chris Paul

862
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 2: being in help a lot. I think it's not it's

863
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 2: nothing with this game. I think he just be so

864
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 2: tired by trying the playoffs come because every do everything.

865
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 3: He's the point guard on the bucket. Yeah, you gotta win,

866
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. You gotta do it.

867
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: You play the game the right way all the time.

868
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 1: You don't over shoot the ball. You know, even the

869
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 1: games that you have good games, your field goal percentage

870
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: be high. You'll go like ten to thirteen or something

871
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: like that and have like twenty six or something like that.

872
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: So like that's how I used to play the game.

873
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: I never just overshot the ball.

874
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think with social media and sh like that,

875
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 2: if you play a game and you two for three, four.

876
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 3: For five, here, like damn, what's going on?

877
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 2: Like I might have a game where I got twenty

878
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 2: next game, I might have like five.

879
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 3: But you know, so like, oh man, you trash, You're terrible.

880
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,959
Speaker 3: I'm like, we won. I have five.

881
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,239
Speaker 5: Like, but them people that don't see the little thing exactly.

882
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: What you do, Like you don't know the real value

883
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: you might have swung three times to get to that

884
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 1: person to shoot the rock.

885
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.

886
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: It's a lot of little details and the stuff that

887
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: people just don't appreciate that really don't know the game, Like.

888
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 2: The fact social media made the world smaller, made keeps

889
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 2: man shorter, like and everybody a professional popular, Like you

890
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 2: got all these people like with basketball now you got

891
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: everybody running basketball in the media, never was good or never.

892
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 3: Played, they got an opinion.

893
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 2: You got people in analytics that have brought that to

894
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 2: the game now, like a big high school hate analytics.

895
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 2: You can just like you can manipulate the numbers to

896
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 2: make it. You know what I'm saying, Like.

897
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 3: Oh, he shoots sixty percent, he's going right, he only

898
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 3: shoot fifty.

899
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 4: I'm still about this whole plus.

900
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,240
Speaker 3: What ever played, I'm like, I never played.

901
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody who wasn't players, Like, I don't know, It's

902
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 2: just like it's.

903
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 3: A game of basketball, just different.

904
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 2: I look at it from that standpoint, like damn, Like

905
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 2: it's really people in the game running the game, and

906
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 2: I don't know the game.

907
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: I know you played for a lot of coaches. I

908
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: played for a lot of coaches, and it's hard to

909
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: get a rhythm. Some coaches really don't believe in you,

910
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: and some like they believe in you, And it's hard

911
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:33,720
Speaker 1: to catch the rhythm with coaches.

912
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 2: I think I've been pretty like blessed far as like

913
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 2: having coaches that liked me. And I went from Isaiah

914
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 2: who drafted me and he had a lot of best

915
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 2: dance I ain't play much, but I had D'Ann Tony

916
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 2: Why like my start and my best years I had

917
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 2: with him, And I went straight from him to George

918
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 2: Carl who played kind of similar style of basketball. So

919
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 2: I always had good coaches, always played for guys that

920
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 2: believed in me.

921
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 3: It's called it.

922
00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 1: Shoot past driven, shoot past drive bar three.

923
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 4: And speak speaking of that, like, you know you played

924
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 4: in Denver. I saw he had you a you know,

925
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 4: a dope little video tribute they showed. They showed the

926
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 4: guy some love. I was, I was doing a show

927
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 4: and I got a chance to see it. I was

928
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 4: really happy for you see him showing you some love

929
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 4: and true Wilson fashion.

930
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 3: He was just like, I was like, did he even

931
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 3: watch the video? They played? And you know they do

932
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 3: that now.

933
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 2: I didn't know, Like peoples asking me, I'm like, I

934
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 2: don't know what they're gonna do.

935
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 3: So I wasn't even expecting no video.

00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:07,560

1091
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 3: My knee to this day, they got that strong, They

1092
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 3: got that strong. I bet you ain't gonna bungee jumping.

1093
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 2: Man, come on, scary shit. Ever, I didn't even know

1094
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 2: how I fucked up my knee because I fell out.

1095
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 3: I'm like dreaming was going to You didn't know nothing

1096
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 3: until you got down and life was okay. Like what

1097
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 3: are you jumping on? Never do no ship like this? Like, man,

1098
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 3: I hear my grandma now, like what was you even thinking?

1099
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 3: You from being harbor made it out of there. You're

1100
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 3: gonna go jump off for Cliff for talking about bungee

1101
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 3: jumping man, Come on, bro yo.

1102
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,240
Speaker 4: So I got a question as far as like cultural impact,

1103
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,280
Speaker 4: who you think had the biggest cultural impact between AI

1104
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 4: and Lebron.

1105
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 3: It is it's great. I think social media Lebron the

1106
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 3: height of social media, like.

1107
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 5: At this age, like it'll it'll look like Lebron. But

1108
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 5: I don't think AI get the props for what he did,

1109
00:43:58,920 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 5: like how he moved.

1110
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 3: It's more it's this day and age.

1111
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 4: I think it's hard to try and you know, compare

1112
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 4: because it's so much more pushing everything that's out there,

1113
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 4: so much more access and you know, you can push

1114
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 4: whatever message you're trying to do so much easiert But

1115
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 4: like AI, like everybody didn't know that he was sending

1116
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,759
Speaker 4: shoes to the prisons and stuff like that and.

1117
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,439
Speaker 3: Looking out and he had the hood and he still got.

1118
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 4: The Hood line like he got hood love forever, like

1119
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 4: they gonna AI is gonna forever be the goat. He

1120
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 4: gonna fever get that special love that everybody.

1121
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 3: Can't and nobody gonna talk about that. You can't replicate

1122
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 3: what he went through.

1123
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 4: And you know, his trials and tribulations that made him

1124
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 4: who he was, and the things that he stood for

1125
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 4: and that he stood against, and right or wrong or

1126
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 4: whatever you want to say, all of those things add

1127
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 4: up to what he is and the icon that he

1128
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 4: is and you can't just replicate that.

1129
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,720
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go AI too, because it was it wasn't intentional,

1130
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,280
Speaker 2: like he was just being himself. He ain't no machine

1131
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 2: behind him pushing like social media, pushing all these different avenues.

1132
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 3: I think he was just being and stuff. It was

1133
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,720
Speaker 3: just like natural. He was like what I'm gonna whatever

1134
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do today, that's what I'm gonna do.

1135
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 2: Like the way he dressed, the way he spoke, and

1136
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 2: I ain't going to practice whatever it was. It wasn't

1137
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 2: even intentionally. He was just like being himself and it became.

1138
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 4: Like I kind of then It's kind of like when

1139
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 4: Lebron came in. It was kind of like at seventeen,

1140
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 4: he was a chosen one, you know what I'm saying,

1141
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,719
Speaker 4: So he had to he had to be kind of

1142
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,759
Speaker 4: tactful and do things perfect and do things that he

1143
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 4: was you know what I'm saying. Like he had to

1144
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 4: like you said, he had a whole machine that was

1145
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 4: pushing them, and he had a game plan like AI

1146
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,320
Speaker 4: was had been in jail, had a second chance and stuff.

1147
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:41,280
Speaker 4: So it was just like it was up for grass

1148
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 4: for him, like you said, he was really just doing him.

1149
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 3: I think Bron did a good job of making moves

1150
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:49,320
Speaker 3: like jay Z. Oh, yes, he like chess moves, you

1151
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. And y'all like pop, you know

1152
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, like emotional, you know what I'm saying. Now,

1153
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 3: just doing living my life.

1154
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:54,800
Speaker 2: You know.

1155
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,399
Speaker 1: But ain't nobody gonna when they mentioned when they mentioned AI,

1156
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:00,880
Speaker 1: ain't nobody gonna talk about this stuff? He really was

1157
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 1: doing like like you said, sent the shoes to the

1158
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,879
Speaker 1: prison and doing the stuff in the hood.

1159
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 5: I guarantee AI.

1160
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 3: And to spend millions of dollars. Oh, they don't never

1161
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 3: say nothing about that on the hood.

1162
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 1: And this ain't this ain't the millions of dollars that

1163
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. He was doing stuff and getting the

1164
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: tax right off one and all that I'm talking about

1165
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 1: cold cash that.

1166
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 5: He was putting into hoods and places he was at

1167
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:21,319
Speaker 5: places he.

1168
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: Played stuff like that that they would never talk about

1169
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,759
Speaker 1: when you hear all Ives's name, But they always want

1170
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: to talk about all the other stuff.

1171
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 3: But he but he moves the culture.

1172
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 4: What's important to be said about that too, is though,

1173
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 4: like just like how you said, poking jay Z, like

1174
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 4: jay needed Pop without Pop coming before him and doing

1175
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 4: all that. JA ain't gonna know what not to do

1176
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 4: and you know what I'm saying, well, how to make

1177
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 4: them chest move. That's the same thing for Lebron. Like

1178
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 4: Lebron get to look at Big bro Ai who embraced

1179
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 4: him on that journey too, and say like all right,

1180
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 4: I could learn from all of these different things.

1181
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,920
Speaker 3: So like, you know what I'm saying, make them mistakes.

1182
00:46:56,480 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 1: Got to Yeah, hist Lebron's strategies though, like the best

1183
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: one the moves he made, the exclusive moves he made, well,

1184
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: he bad like him and his crew.

1185
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 3: From day one. He like the first thing you got

1186
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,319
Speaker 3: to say about him is the decision, Like, come on, bro,

1187
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 3: like that that's what I did. That was bogus was

1188
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 3: the decision.

1189
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 4: But that's what I'm saying that that's that's like the

1190
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 4: thing that you get criticized the most or get you

1191
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, Like, so like if that's that's

1192
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 4: that what I'm cool, Like I'm doing pretty good for

1193
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 4: like the status in the elite level he came in

1194
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 4: from day one on and like that's the big crowd

1195
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:32,879
Speaker 4: about me, Like nah, I'm cool.

1196
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,200
Speaker 2: No, Definitely, the way he handlw itself and he conduct

1197
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 2: business that's inspirational.

1198
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 1: That's definitely he moved the coachure definitely with that. He

1199
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: knew how to do it, even with being political and

1200
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 1: stuff because the Jordan's and the Kobe and new one

1201
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 1: into all that. For him to be speaking sometimes some

1202
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:51,919
Speaker 1: of the stuff be kind of I don't know where

1203
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 1: he was coming with that one, but for him to

1204
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,759
Speaker 1: even be steep speaking up and he the top on

1205
00:47:57,880 --> 00:47:58,480
Speaker 1: the list.

1206
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,400
Speaker 4: Is instead to throw his name out that you know

1207
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, somebody come back. You gotta respect that. Yeah,

1208
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 4: but hey, we got this part where we like to

1209
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 4: do called what's better now or in the nineties, So

1210
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 4: we just go It's basically like, so he read your

1211
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 4: he got the he got the n W A White

1212
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 4: Sox had.

1213
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 3: He fell under that ask.

1214
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 4: So you know, this is a good one for him,

1215
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 4: even though most of his answers gonna probably be nineties.

1216
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,560
Speaker 5: What's better haircuts in the nineties or now?

1217
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:30,280
Speaker 2: The nineties? Nineties for Shure, So you can pick anyone.

1218
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:36,360
Speaker 2: Gumbo Park had and juice right, juice the whole you know, you.

1219
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:37,720
Speaker 3: Know it's crazy.

1220
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 4: Ab brought that out one time and you know Brown

1221
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 4: remember that fact nineties for Shore in the in the

1222
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 4: nineties you like or what's better in the nineties and

1223
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 4: now clothes fashion.

1224
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 2: I think I think people starting to dress more like

1225
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:57,839
Speaker 2: the nineties now. It seemed like to me nineties for sure.

1226
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 2: I think I thought nas was like the Friend just

1227
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 2: dude in the nineties.

1228
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 1: It was smooth then on now commercials back then in

1229
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 1: the nineties or now, I think.

1230
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,719
Speaker 2: Nineties was more memorable, like you know what I'm saying,

1231
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 2: like classic lines that you will never forget.

1232
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 3: I still quote like you know what I'm saying commercially

1233
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:20,040
Speaker 3: from the nineties.

1234
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: Now, like like little panes, a little penny, little penny

1235
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 1: penny joining commercials, commercials.

1236
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 4: Because now it's like so many commercials now, it's like

1237
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,879
Speaker 4: it's not it's hard for him to really stick. Every

1238
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,440
Speaker 4: once in a while, like the Doakis the original do

1239
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,360
Speaker 4: they messed it up with the new Dude.

1240
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 3: Right says I think that was memorab when with the

1241
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:41,760
