17
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: know that was a really long time ago for you,

18
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: but I want you to set your mind back when

19
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: you were seven, okay, and I want to hear what

20
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: it was like growing up for you in Greece, especially

21
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: in your teenage years.

22
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 3: Oh my, it was that's crazy. Well, I mean just

23
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 3: starting to play basketball and just like really having a big,

24
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 3: big like just dreams and I'm still kind of that

25
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 3: in that kind of realm, but I just got, you know,

26
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 3: just a little bit older and there's more responsibilities out thing.

27
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 3: But just yeah, just chasing all the time and just

28
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 3: like always worrying about my family and my brothers, and

29
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 3: same feeling I was a film now.

30
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: Honestly, yeah, speaking of that sort of being like this

31
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: is such a surreal feeling. I watched the Disney movie

32
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 2: about your family, which I loved, and when I was

33
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: thinking about that movie and thinking about this interview, I

34
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: wanted to ask you, what if seventeen year old the

35
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: NASAs was sitting in this chair, what would he think

36
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: that you were now an NBA champion and have had

37
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: a movie made about your family.

38
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 3: Wow, I don't think. I don't think I would believe

39
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 3: it with you, I don't think. And if I told

40
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 3: my seventeen year old self of like, a, all your

41
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: buzzs are going to be champions and you're all gonna

42
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 3: be playing basketball, and you're all gonna like really like

43
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: leave your dream through basketball, you know, and I don't

44
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: know if I could believe it, because, to be honest

45
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 3: with you, you just live in like segments.

46
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: You know.

47
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 3: You just that's how the human mind works. Do you

48
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 3: get to a certain age and then you start thinking

49
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 3: about the future more and more. But I think if

50
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: you had told me today and I had to travel

51
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 3: like in a time machine and back in time, I'm

52
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 3: be like, no, no, no, just just just let me focus.

53
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 3: I don't believe you. Just let me focus. That's that's

54
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: what I would say.

55
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: I love that. That's really cool.

56
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 2: So you started playing basketball much later than most NBA

57
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 2: players did. Can you tell us a little bit about

58
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 2: how you got into basketball in the first place, because

59
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 2: correct me if I'm wrong, But you started off with soccer, right, yeah.

60
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 3: They play soccer? Uh, Me and my brothers was you know,

61
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 3: it was gonna I mean because my dad played soccer professionally,

62
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 3: so that's always our thing. But then one day we

63
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 3: just decided and started like it was like, okay, let's

64
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 3: try basketball. And then I met some people and just

65
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 3: decided to take this around. And I loved it. Actually,

66
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: basketball just felt like just more engaging, you know. I

67
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 3: just felt like soccer for us at the time was great,

68
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 3: but like it was you just really had to have

69
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 3: love for a certain position in soccer instead of basketball.

70
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 3: You could, you could you get to be everywhere at

71
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 3: all all times. So like office defense.

72
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: And how familiar were you even with the NBA being

73
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: in Greece.

74
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 3: I mean as much as we could, as much as

75
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 3: it could. I mean we don't really have at the time,

76
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 3: we didn't really have cable or I don't know how

77
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: you guys call it, like, but we did have a

78
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 3: certain like you know, we have a big, big tradition

79
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 3: with basketball Greece, you know, so we did love basketball

80
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 3: and we did have like this and I think like

81
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 3: after two thousand and I want to say four five

82
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 3: kind of changed that. I was then, Yeah, yeah, we

00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 3: kind of change the tranjectory for us. I talked about

85
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,440

00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, your mindset.

88
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like, oh my god, this is this

104
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 2: and you guys started off your journey playing soccer. So

105
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 2: if you had to compare your soccer game to one

106
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,000

00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 3: take shots.

113
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but I mean I don't know how you

114
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 2: could be stopped in the box, like if they crossed

115
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: it in.

116
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,520

118
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: for sure. What was your experience, Like, I know you

119
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 2: played pro in Greece. What's the biggest difference you noticed

120
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: playing basketball in Greece and then playing basketball in the

121
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 2: United States.

122
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 3: I think just everybody being athletic, you know, like when

123
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 3: I play basketball in Greece.

124
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 2: Uh.

125
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 3: You know, now now everybody's like the world the whole

126
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 3: war is starting to catch up. Like if you notice,

127
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 3: like every I.

128
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: Mean the Olympics was run for us.

129
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but at the time, like there was, you know,

130
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 3: people weren't so athletic. And I always always wondering, like,

131
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 3: am I going going to be athletic if I come

132
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 3: to the NBA or if I come to the States

133
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 3: and play, I'm still going to be athletic. I'm going

134
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 3: to look like everybody else. But it was it was great, man.

135
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 3: I just came here and then I was like, okay,

136
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 3: I still be looked at the ninety percent of the

137
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 3: you know, athletic and run and jump and you know,

138
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 3: be able to defend and stuff like that.

139
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, And I've seen all these TikTok videos

140
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 2: that always amaze me where the fans in Europe are

141
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 2: crazy like and I feel like maybe that's not allowed

142
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: in the United States. I don't know what it is,

143
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 2: but do you prefer playing there because of the atmosphere?

144
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 3: So there's I think there's pels and cons. I don't

145
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: know if if you know, it's if it's not allowed

146
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: per se. It just has to do with like etiquette,

147
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 3: you know, like guys are like die hard fans. I

148
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 3: think people die hard fans. You know, Milwaukee and Nicks

149
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: and the Celtics, you do have die hard fans, But

150
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 3: like in the Balkans, it's different. It's different. It's a

151
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 3: different board game. And and it's different when you walk

152
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 3: into that ina and it's twenty thousand people and they're

153
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 3: they're in the seats like two hours before the game,

154
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 3: and you know, and people would say, like you know,

155
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 3: it's it's borderline or not. It's gives you chills, it's scary,

156
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 3: gives you chills and at the same time makes you play.

157
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 3: Like if you have a fan base that has this

158
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 3: kind of energy, and I play for fan base like that,

159
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 3: you feel like like Superman. Like when you play, you

160
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: you do things that you sometimes you don't even believe

161
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 3: you could do.

162
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: Actually use What NBA team's fan base do you think

163
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 2: is most similar to a European fan base?

164
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 3: Sadly none, not really, Yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean

165
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 3: the close, the closest to it. You see it in

166
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 3: the playoffs. That's the closest you can see in the

167
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: regular in the playoffs, but not even in the regular season.

168
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 3: Now with the with the Cup, how do you.

169
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 2: Think the n season tournament has sort of changed maybe

170
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: the fan experience.

171
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 3: A lot, a lot a lot, and it's just and

172
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 3: it's really new second year. But I think like from

173
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 3: next year you will see more and more like teams

174
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 3: and people like really be uh uh lock things, you know,

175
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 3: did into the games and want to win because you know,

176
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 3: for you to win the Cup, it's like that way

177
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 3: seven in a row. So so that I think that

178
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 3: what people see is gonna like really really get them

179
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 3: to the seats and even more like riled up as whatever.

180
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 3: But a fund base, I mean, the closest you could

181
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 3: see a fun base, I don't want to say doing

182
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 3: that it is the playoffs, but I mean it's just weird.

183
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 3: You can't really because you're playing so many games.

184
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard to have that every time.

185
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's hard to have that every time. And you

186
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 3: can think about that. It's in Europe, it's like two

187
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 3: games a week, so you couldn't you could have that

188
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 3: a little bit easier.

189
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: I've noticed.

190
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: Obviously I have a different experience than you because I'm

191
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 2: not on the court, but I've been to Warriors, Clippers, Lakers,

192
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 2: Jazz games. It's so I'm definitely trying to see more.

193
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: Meaning they played other teams but at their home arenas.

194
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 2: The Jazz fits are crazy and like I didn't expect

195
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: that being you know, Utah, but I feel like they're

196
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 2: They're crazier than I thought. So that was definitely cool

197
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 2: to see.

198
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Utah has a good tradition with the

199
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 3: like with like basketball, I think a lot of teams

200
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 3: go out there and they kind of I think I

201
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 3: remember we had a losion streak for a minute. Really

202
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: yeah in Utah, like because of the crowd, the fund

203
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 3: base that the players, and the altitude.

204
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: Dude, yeah that's big time.

205
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 2: You drink When the NASA has walked in here, guys,

206
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 2: he was carrying a giant water.

207
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 1: It was crazy. So I don't know why he has

208
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: trouble with.

209
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: The altitude because he drinks insane amounts of water. Okay,

210
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: I'm really interested in this. So growing up in Europe,

211
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: you obviously you didn't go to college because you went

212
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: straight to the pros. If you had to choose American

213
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: college that you think you would have gone to, which

214
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: school do you think it would have been.

215
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 3: I've gotta ask this before, and I always say, like

216
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 3: kind of three, three of them. So one would be

217
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 3: Louisville really reflections and steals and stuff like that. The

218
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 3: other one would be Baylor. I feel like, yeah, I'm

219
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 3: definitely yeah the top of it, like and then uh,

220
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 3: the other school would be Indiana. Who's like with vic

221
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 3: old people. I feel like I was watching Big Play.

222
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 3: I was like, Okay, that's school. It's great to be

223
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 3: like a part of that.

224
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool.

225
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: I like your answers because I feel like usually when

226
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 2: you ask European players, they're like.

227
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: Oh, dupe the best schools.

228
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 2: I like that you have those you really thought about this,

229
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 2: I can tell I like that a lot because.

230
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 3: You know, like, like the only reason I didn't go

231
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: to college is because my mom and like my parents

232
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 3: knew really we didn't really have money, so we had

233
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 3: to like go pro we had to like forget that, yeah,

234
00:10:58,880 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 3: to do that first.

235
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 2: But like looking back, definitely, so you think if ni

236
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 2: L had been a thing when you were a kid.

237
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 3: Here, who would have who would have been in it.

238
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: Of course, yeah, you would have. Of course, just think

239
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 3: about how many kids from overseas going now and oh

240
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 3: it's crazy. Yeah of course. And and then uh, I

241
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 3: kind of joke with some of my teammates because you know, like, uh,

242
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 3: like I like fraternities and stuff like that. No, but

243
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 3: fraternities in the sense of like brotherhood and stuff like that.

244
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 3: So I was definitely was like, oh, yeah, I'll go

245
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 3: to I don't know how much like HBCUs like if

246
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 3: they have like you know, like basketball like stuff like that,

247
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 3: just to you know, step and stuff like that. Could

248
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 3: see myself do that.

249
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, So because we were talking about ni L,

250
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: what did you buy.

251
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: With your first NBA check?

252
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 3: Did I buy nothing?

253
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: Really?

254
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 3: You saved it? Yeah? I was only playing, Yeah, be

255
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 3: honest with you. So when I first played with the

256
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 3: next I didn't really get like that kind of more

257
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: like a deal. Yeah, it was. It was it was

258
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 3: the league and then I got a call up, so

259
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 3: he wasn't really like that much of money. But then

260
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 3: when I went to the Buck, when it came back

261
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 3: to the NBA, I was already you know, I was

262
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 3: already the professional athletes.

263
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,319
Speaker 1: It was in that same experience.

264
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, and it was it was a

265
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: blessing in disguise as well, because you know, all my

266
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 3: brother's place, I never had to like say like, oh,

267
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 3: I gotta get my brothers this, I gotta do this

268
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 3: like we've always you've all gotten to do it together

269
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 3: to get that at the same time. So that's been

270
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 3: a blessing for us to be able to build off

271
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 3: this and really like you.

272
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: Know, mm hmm, that's super cool.

273
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 2: So we talked a little bit about European basketball and

274
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 2: the difference between European basketball and the NBA. There's been

275
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 2: this concept, you know that people have been talking about

276
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 2: a lot online about this idea. Take the Champions League

277
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: in soccer, but put that in basketball and have NBA

278
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: teams playing teams like Real Madrid BC. What do you

279
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 2: think that would be Like? Would you be an advocate

280
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: for that?

281
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, I'll be an ad for that because I

282
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 3: think be like teams and players like especially if they

283
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 3: play like a couple of the Greek teams as well

284
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 3: that we're from, they would lose their minds. They'd be like,

285
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: there's no way you guys play basketball like this. There's

286
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 3: no way. Yeah, and yeah, I think people would love

287
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 3: it and they would create like a I think people

288
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 3: of I think the whole of the world would love it.

289
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: Now in the States, I don't know how much, you know,

290
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 3: how much somebody you know, really cares about playing a

291
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 3: European team in their in their stadium. But once they

292
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 3: you know, they lose, they.

293
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: Definitely then they care.

294
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 2: All right, So what was your NBA I made it

295
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 2: moment because you had a definitely a not traditional path

296
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 2: to the NBA, balancing you know, between being in Greek,

297
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 2: being in the d League and then finally making it

298
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 2: with a real like you know, an NBA team.

299
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 3: Like the Bucks. No, I think, no, it wasn't. It

300
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 3: wasn't even just making with the But I think it

301
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: was when I got drafted, you know, because like like

302
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 3: just getting I don't think people realize this, like, you know,

303
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 3: just getting drafted. It's so crazy. It's like sixty people

304
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 3: in like the whole planet they get every year, right,

305
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: and just to be able to have you know, three

306
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 3: of them in your family, Like you know, I got

307
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 3: drafted and yan Has got drafted and the courses got drafted,

308
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 3: and like then I was like Okay, I'm I'm an

309
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 3: I'm a i'm an lead professional basketball player. It did.

310
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,599
Speaker 3: It didn't matter if I was going to play in

311
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 3: the NBA, to be honest with you, because like the

312
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 3: NBA drafts based on potential players, right, and imagine like

313
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 3: now that aids because you know, now, like people can

314
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 3: be like, okay, yay, it's you know, when you're older,

315
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 3: people get to it's the business side of it, Right,

316
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get this player because this player does this

317
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 3: for me, and get that player. But then when you're young,

318
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 3: nobody knows you. Nobody knew me, no one care, nobody

319
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 3: knew you know, yeah, is nobody knew code Like was like,

320
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 3: you know what, we believe they have potential to play

321
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 3: in the NBA someday, we're gonna draft them now and

322
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 3: let's see in the future, so that that'll let you

323
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 3: know that you just have that NBA type athleticism and potential.

324
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,479
Speaker 3: So that was the that was the moment. Then obviously

325
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 3: after you want to you want to say, obviously winning

326
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 3: and championship and.

327
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: Like, okay, it doesn't happened, but yeah, and I feel

328
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: like it's also especially cool that you got drafted to

329
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: the next because being a kid in Europe.

330
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: That's one of the teams that you really know, you know.

331
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 3: What's so crazy. I remember when I got drafted, people

332
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 3: like keep saying like, oh, you got drafted first before ya,

333
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 3: That is not true. Yan's got drafted twenty thirteen. I

334
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 3: got drafted. I got drafted twenty four ten. Yes, but

335
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 3: nobody remember he's got to getting drafted because I got

336
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 3: drafted the Knicks exactly, and it was a huge thing.

337
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 3: I remember back and was like, oh my god, he's

338
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 3: you know, just this is whole thing. But for me

339
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 3: it was just a proud moment because I really really

340
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 3: worked hard to, like, you know, do this. So I

341
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: think people have to sometimes just like you know, like

342
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 3: really embraced and really chased this moments and steps like that,

343
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 3: because a lot of times people get caught up in

344
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 3: different different things and they're like, yeah, what's going on

345
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 3: in the world, but they don't rechage the steps and

346
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 3: go like, oh, oh, okay, this is I've had an

347
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 3: amazing like journey and stuff like that.

348
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, for little moments that matter. I love that. What

349
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: is a fan interaction that you will never forget?

350
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 3: Fan?

351
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:11,240

00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, my family would do something like that. And I

389
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 3: never forget about that. And I remember I was like, hey,

390
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,360
Speaker 3: when I come to Canada Montreal, like when we play,

391
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 3: like I'm going to meet you, I'm going to see you,

392
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 3: and I'm meeting him there and then like and then

393
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 3: she was a saw him lat and I saw him

394
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 3: like a couple of months ago my brother's wedding. That's crazy, right,

395
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 3: So so like we'd like that's my sort of friends,

396
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 3: that's so cool.

397
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 2: I love that story. What about winning a chip was

398
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 2: most special to you? And the reason why I asked

399
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: this question is because you know, as it's weird to

400
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 2: call us normal people, right, but people that aren't in

401
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 2: the NBA, you think winning a chip must be the

402
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 2: most surreal feeling. But I feel like a lot of

403
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 2: the players that I've talked to with one I have

404
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 2: had different reasons that have made it so special, and

405
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 2: I'm curious to hear what yours is.

406
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 3: Oh my why reasons? I think I do have two reasons.

407
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 3: One one is the obviously, the obviously one, like who

408
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 3: does want to win a championship? Like, if you're a winner,

409
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 3: you want to win. It doesn't matter if you play,

410
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 3: don't play, you just want to win. Whatever you said,

411
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 3: whatever you walk to, I want to I want this

412
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 3: to win. So that's one. But the other reason is

413
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:08,239
Speaker 3: very very personal, like like we really wanted to win.

414
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 3: I really wanted to win because my brother won the

415
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,199
Speaker 3: year before with the Lakers and we had this and

416
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 3: I remember we were sitting on the table and I'm like,

417
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 3: oh my god, it he just want a chance? Yeah,

418
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 3: and you know, and the way he wanted, you know,

419
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 3: with the guys he wanted with like Lebron and and

420
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 3: the guys and and a d and all these guys

421
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 3: and with the Lakers and you know, and they were like,

422
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 3: oh my god, mind you that season. Our season we

423
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 3: were supposed to go the way as well, but the

424
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 3: COVID happened. So just sitting at the table and he's

425
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 3: like he's had like he said, have his hat on. No,

426
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 3: he just got it. He he just flew in. And

427
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 3: then you know other times COVID, so there's no like parade,

428
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 3: no nothing. But we did something for him. So we

429
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 3: had all our friends and we did like a whole

430
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,679
Speaker 3: like convoy with our cars, our friends, and we met

431
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 3: him at the airport and you know, the next day,

432
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 3: old sitting and he was talking about the championship and

433
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 3: like how how crazy this is. And then he got

434
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 3: his ring and we did this whole video for his

435
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 3: rig ceremony. And while we're doing the video, I'm sitting

436
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 3: with you and I'm like, we're gonna win. We gotta win.

437
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 3: And I remember, you know, it wasn't the usual like

438
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 3: like dinner was always like oh yeah, like everybody gets

439
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 3: to dinner, we all. It wasn't just that it was

440
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 3: like so full of motivation, and I remember the day.

441
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 3: The next day was so shitous, like hey we got it,

442
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 3: like we're right there, like this figure of this song,

443
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 3: we're right there. And for us to win it the

444
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 3: next year, it was so surreal because now we're like,

445
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 3: oh my god, this is this is incredible. Can you

446
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 3: imagine telling somebody like, hey, uh, this is how close

447
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 3: to the chances are, like, hey, I'm gonna win a

448
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,199
Speaker 3: hundred million dollars, I'm gonna win the next lottery and

449
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: you go like yeah, right, and then and then and

450
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 3: then somebody next to you wins it, which happens to

451
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 3: be your brother. He wins it. You're like, oh my god,

452
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 3: you just want the latter. No, I got to do

453
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 3: it too. But but but think about it. You say

454
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 3: this out loud, but like people don't really believe that. No,

455
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 3: they just say it just to say it. Yeah, but

456
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 3: play it out loud to make it happen, and then

457
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 3: after the fact come down and sit them like, oh

00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 3: two guys, which is one is my brother and jokids

517
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 3: like those two you can pick ere the one in

518
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 3: the end of the season, so I'll provide I figured you.

519
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 3: But yeah, you know, you know.

520
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 2: That's actually really nice because to be honest, if you

521
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 2: asked if like that, if I was honest and my

522
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 2: brother was you, he'd be like, no, I want I

523
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 2: want you to win like you would never.

524
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 3: Be yeah, yeah, no, no, but yeah, goddess yeah, well

525
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 3: obviously the same thing. They don't those two guys, they

526
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 3: don't play for awards. No, they they're just that good

527
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 3: and it happened. Yeah, they just played to be better

528
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 3: every day. I'm just saying from a fan's perspective, like

529
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,479
Speaker 3: watching them playing consistency is different.

530
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 1: It is who is your most improved player this season?

531
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 3: Most improved player? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a

532
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 3: great question. Me.

533
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 2: I'll get back to go, okay, okay, Rookie of the Year,

534
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: which is a crazy one because my rookie of the

535
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 2: Year just got hurt. I'm very upset about it. Jared

536
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 2: McCain was my rookie of the year. I mean that

537
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 2: was unpopular opinion. It's so sad to see that now

538
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 2: he can't really get the so like Stephen Castle is

539
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,239
Speaker 2: probably he's like the number one prediction right now.

540
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 1: Jillen Well, they're like up there.

541
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 3: That's the lookod of the Year was going to be

542
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 3: this guy from the Lakers sum Connect. Yeah. Kind of

543
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 3: felt for him, like because I saw him playing, I

544
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 3: was like, oh my god, he's so mature in the

545
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 3: where he plays. He'll definitely fit in uh in you know,

546
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 3: you know, and in the championship team. Because a lot

547
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 3: of times people don't don't tell you this, but like

548
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 3: you got on it's a big, big difference between being

549
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 3: the guy between coming to a big roster to play.

550
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 3: That's why a lot of young guys won't play totally.

551
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: Have we have fans, fans young.

552
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,439
Speaker 3: Guys won't play, so but be able to be mature

553
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 3: and be like, Okay, this is what I do, this

554
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 3: is what I do, this is what this is the

555
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 3: way I can't help this team. So I got to

556
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 3: dominate this place. Jere mccainy was.

557
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,959
Speaker 2: Probably, yeah, okay, lastly, who do you think is going

558
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 2: to win the Chip this year? And I don't want

559
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: to see any bias, you know, you got to be

560
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 2: straight up.

561
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 3: Any bias from like obviously, I always you know, like

562
00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 3: Milwaukee has a specials it's it's you know what. Usually

563
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 3: it's a lot of seasons that you have like some

564
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 3: people in their clear cut for winning. But like, apart

565
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 3: from obviously, you know, the Celtics did it last year,

566
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 3: so they kind of have like this little advantage over

567
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 3: everybody a little bit. But other than this, like I

568
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 3: think it's up there. I think whoever it's healthy at

569
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 3: the end of the season, if whoever it is more

570
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 3: consistent this season.

571
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 2: You know, I'm a Warriors fan and at the beginning

572
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 2: of this season, I ha'd so much hope. I was like, no,

573
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 2: what steps gonna get his fifth ring? Like one hundred percent,

574
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 2: we were first in the West. Whatever, Now all the

575
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 2: way down to eighth in the West. This season has

576
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 2: been crazy, crazy up and downs.

577
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 3: It's like, you know, we we I think the team

578
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 3: was playing bad in the beginning season and now you know.

579
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 2: Exactly, I mean coming off the Cup win exactly. Okay,

580
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 2: do you want to go back to most improved player?

581
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 3: You just yeah, mostly player. Do you have any names?

582
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 3: Do you have anybody? I'll tell you.

583
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a life you could say Jalen Williams

584
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 2: I think is someone you could say, Scotty Pippen junior,

585
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 2: you could say. I My prediction at the beginning of

586
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 2: the season, unfortunately was it was a bat when it

587
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: was Brandon Pajemski from the Warriors, who is a great player.

588
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 3: But I can see why he said that though, See

589
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:05,679
Speaker 3: why he said that.

590
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 1: I think that you know, you know.

591
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 3: It's I do like Joe Williams. I think I do

592
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 3: feel like we talk about some persons. Okay, okay, see.

593
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, see, well you know there's two Jayalen Williams

594
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 2: on Okay, see, but we're talking about this.

595
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty one points per game, right, that's exactly.

596
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: Wow, look at that sad.

597
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I did see him play. I do feel

598
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 3: like we kind of. It's crazy. I told him something

599
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 3: last year, the years two years ago. He reminds me

600
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 3: of a player specifically, and he was laughing. He smiled.

601
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 3: He's like, yeah, I was like, hey, that that's the comparison.

602
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 3: I feel like you could. You could do that on

603
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 3: the defense he wants to, he remind him and Drew

604
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 3: Holiday clan knows alone. Yeah. Yeah, he reminded me of

605
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 3: Drew Hollid. This is everything everything. It wasn't just his game,

606
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 3: just like he's his body type, his way, he's nonchalant,

607
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 3: his face, everything reminded me of Jew Holliday. And I

608
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 3: told him. I was like, hey, listen, you got to

609
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 3: go look at the person that nobody's looking and the

610
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 3: person who's actually signing after signing big after big after

611
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 3: big contract without nobody really realizing. Like this guy has

612
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 3: like maybe the top ten cars in the NBA, you know,

613
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 3: and and always considd you know, so so like you

614
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 3: wanna really have good examples, and I, you know, I don't.

615
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 3: I don't know how he said, but I did tell.

616
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 2: Him that, Yeah, it's interesting that you say that, you know,

617
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 2: always considered underrated, because I've been asking the question, you know,

618
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 2: I've probably been doing slow notes for about three years now,

619
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 2: since I was thirteen fourteen, And I've always asked the question,

620
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 2: who's the most underrated player in the league, And people

621
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 2: always say Drew Holiday, And it's like, how has he

622
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 2: been underrated for that long?

623
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 3: Some point he's gonna stop. Obviously, some point he's gonna

624
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 3: stop goes.

625
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 2: It's like gold medal NBA Championship. At what point are

626
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 2: people gonna stop saying he's underrated?

627
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 3: So I'll tell you why it is that that is

628
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 3: going to say he's underdated because he doesn't come off

629
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 3: like this like Mega Super, Yes he does.

630
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: He's not like a flex, but he.

631
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 3: Does have no no. So this is the thing about

632
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 3: like Super and Mega started like, it's not like he's

633
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 3: a flex flex. I don't know, I mean, I don't

634
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 3: know if I'm using the word correctly, but those players

635
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 3: just don't like it's it's just players who are known

636
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 3: like across the globe, Like it's players who go on

637
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 3: a close girls and they're recognized, right, And I think, like, uh,

638
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 3: you know, he's not that tier. So because he's not

639
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,479
Speaker 3: that tier, he's considered because what he does sometimes at

640
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 3: some point gives you those kind of moments though he

641
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 3: can give you.

642
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 2: Another thing is I remember when Drew was called up

643
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: to the team USA for the Olympics and people were like,

644
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 2: really Drew Holiday over Jalen Bruns and all these people.

645
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 2: But if you don't know the game, you don't understand

646
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 2: how much of an impact he can make.

647
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:42,959
Speaker 1: Like he's the heart of so many teams.

648
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 2: He's incredible on defense, he has incredible court vision, and

649
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 2: people fail to see that because they only see the

650
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 2: big windmill dungs in the deep threes, and they don't understand.

651
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: That it's a team. It's a team sport for.

652
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 2: A reason, and guys like that are as vital as

653
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 2: a Steph Curry who can hit the last three, you know.

654
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 3: And that's why you see him. He always played and

655
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 3: he always have to invite the role the teams. And

656
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 3: and this is the thing about like I said, like before,

657
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 3: you know, guys coming out of college the same thing guys,

658
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 3: you know, being a start in your team and then

659
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 3: you go to another team that's a super team. Yeah,

660
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 3: and then and then and then that's how you gotta

661
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 3: then you gotta be some you guys just got to

662
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 3: be different for you to to be able to play,

663
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 3: you know how lebron Is and kde and and stuff

664
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 3: like that, and you know and Steph. It's just different.

665
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 3: That's why they they're gonna play. That's that's totally it is.

666
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 3: If you cannot be that different, like really simplated yourself

667
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 3: above others, it's hard for you to play.

668
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally.

669
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 2: Okay, So now I want to move on to a

670
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 2: section where I want to get to know your brothers

671
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 2: a little bit more in depth. Right, So you have,

672
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 2: including yourself, there's five brothers, right, Francis, Cosas, Alex, Jannis,

673
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 2: and Fanasis. And four of the five brothers have played

674
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 2: professional basketball, three in the NBA, and Francis played soccer,

675
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 2: but he took another path. Okay, So I'm gonna ask

676
00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 2: you some questions, and you're gonna tell me which brother

677
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 2: supplies to you?

678
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: Ready, Okay, which brother is the funniest.

679
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 3: On between coach? It depends, Okay, And I know it

680
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 3: sounds crazy, but it depends because we all we're all,

681
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 3: we're all, I want to say. It's a hard thing

682
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 3: to say, we're all funny. But I think if I

683
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 3: had to pick on between Alex Anders those two, yeah,

684
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 3: I think they're younger, and they just like, you know,

685
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 3: I think they're they they can't. They have everything in

686
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 3: the arsenal, you know, from humor to dak humor. They

687
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 3: like they have everything.

688
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 2: Which of the best brothers is the sorry? Which of

689
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 2: the brothers is the best overall athlete?

690
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 3: Over the athletes? Me? Okay, seriously believe that. But but

691
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 3: you know, something changed my mind. It was two three

692
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 3: years ago. Some change my mind. Then I then I

693
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 3: then I picked uh, it's crazy. Then I picked Yan

694
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 3: be honest, because I saw him run track. It was

695
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 3: run track at the same time. I was like eleven,

696
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 3: like ten, I think it was like eleven something for

697
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 3: like hundred meters. I was like he's seven feet and

698
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 3: I'm like okay. But then but then, you know, then

699
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 3: I turned my mind again because I see coastures and

700
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 3: Coastures has this like forty eight vertical, so it's like

701
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 3: overall but one of the most athletics the longest. I

702
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 3: always was like, no, I'm to combine everything strong, explosive

703
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 3: jumping and like fast twitch.

704
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, which of the brothers is the best cook?

705
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 3: The best cook? I mean I have it's not like

706
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 3: we go out there. Yeah, also say none of you,

707
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 3: like no, really, I mean I would say maybe coasters.

708
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe he's I could see more of a group, like,

709
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 3: you know, maybe him.

710
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: Okay. I feel like you guys maybe aren't like chefs.

711
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 3: No, We're definitely not. You will just get the food

712
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 3: for you.

713
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, which of your brothers has the best style?

714
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 3: What you know? Of course, of course, but if you

715
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 3: see us in the setting, you'd see while we're brothers,

716
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 3: like we all like kind of similar. Do you guys

717
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 3: call this a little bit swag, a little bit of

718
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 3: a yeah, yeah, yeah.

719
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: Or okay, who takes the longest to reply to a text?

720
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 3: Who takes the longest? I think the youngest, like the

721
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 3: young guys, I think Alex, Yeah, that makes sense. I

722
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 3: feel like I want to say cost Maybe maybe my

723
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 3: problem is.

724
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 2: I see the text and I read it and then

725
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,479
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, reply later, and then it's like been

726
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 2: like a week and I'm like, oh my god, I

727
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 2: never responded to that.

728
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's like, which are the brothers? Is the best dancer?

729
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 3: The best dancer? I mean, we don't break that breakdown,

730
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 3: so have any like competition or stuff like that. But

731
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 3: like I wouldn't say the young like listen, I wouldn't

732
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 3: say the young kid. I want to say like either cultures,

733
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 3: let's give you to them.

734
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, this is very random, but when I

735
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 2: was in second grade or third grade, we had a

736
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 2: project to sort of learn how to take care of

737
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 2: like a pet, right where they gave us a water

738
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 2: balloon to a group of kids and they basically saw

739
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 2: which kids could keep it like intact the longest and

740
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: not pop it. I'm curious if you gave all of

741
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,359
Speaker 2: your brothers that water balloon, who would protect it like

742
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 2: the most? Who wouldn't let it pop?

743
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 3: So so I think it all depends because like we

744
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 3: are very very like we were boys and men, so

745
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 3: it's kind of like we're very lither like if you

746
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 3: give us a balloon, I don't care if it's a balloon,

747
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 3: if it's a what if it's a kid. No, if

748
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 3: it's a kid, that's that's then okay, out of that's

749
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,919
Speaker 3: the that's the pack. That's why that nobody is doing

750
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 3: nothing to that kid. Yeah. But if it was to

751
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 3: like like a pet pet, I would say costas maybe

752
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 3: probably cost is more of a pet, like you know

753
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 3: pet guy.

754
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, which of your brothers is the biggest Mama's boy.

755
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 3: Uh, it's between I think it's between Johannis and and

756
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 3: Alex so that baby.

757
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm curious to see if I get one of

758
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 2: your other brothers on here, if they have different answers, they.

759
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 3: Will probably do because they you know, they see life differently.

760
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 1: Different perspective. Totally. Okay, Now we're going to move into

761
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: a little bit of a rapid fire section.

762
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 3: I mean Mama's I mean I every day.

763
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is your favorite clothing brand?

764
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 3: Favorite clothing brand obviously Nike and our brand like we

765
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 3: uh Nike like obviously and our band like I did

766
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 3: the Cool Bos. Yes, those like those are the two

767
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 3: brands I'll be rocking with. But to be honest with you,

768
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 3: so many new brands that are coming out and like

769
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 3: I'm more of because you know, I like fashion and

770
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 3: stuff like that. But at the same time, I like

771
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 3: to like kind of like promote people to underground. Yeah.

00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,560

00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:51,680

1016
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 3: it was four. It was four games. I don't know

1017
00:48:54,239 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 3: if three remoubers three, it was five. It was literally

1018
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,920
Speaker 3: four or five games. We literally, yeah, three rebounds.

1019
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 2: I like to ask the most random questions, like I'm

1020
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 2: not going to ask how many points because you could

1021
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:12,479
Speaker 2: know that. Okay, So, including you and Yiannis who played

1022
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 2: on the same team, which is really cool, how many

1023
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 2: pairs of brothers in NBA history have ever played on

1024
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 2: the same team on the same team, Yes, obviously there's

1025
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,960
Speaker 2: been so many brothers in the league, but on the

1026
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 2: same team is a much smaller number.

1027
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 3: I know, I know for for a fact, okay, but

1028
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 3: I don't think the number is four. It has to

1029
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 3: be more, right. It's the NBA, so it has to

1030
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 3: be more.

1031
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, yeah, and you know that when Brooke and

1032
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:44,320
Speaker 2: Robin Lopez when they were playing together, they were you

1033
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 2: and you were also on the team.

1034
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:46,920
Speaker 1: It's crazy two of those.

1035
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 3: Peers brothers as well, and going into Ragets brothers as well. Exactly.

1036
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 2: So I knew a great segue last final questions and

1037
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 2: asked how many pairs of brothers are there currently in

1038
00:49:59,440 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 2: the NBA?

1039
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:01,359

1054
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,479
Speaker 2: confusing because you don't always think of them.

1055
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,920
Speaker 3: This way means Morris is yes.

1056
