One thing I notice about you, 34 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,399 Speaker 2: and it doesn't always start that way, but a lot 35 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 2: of times you end up when you coming to the game, 36 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: you end up a lot of times I don't I 37 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: haven't looked at the stats, but you end up hitting 38 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: your first shot every you know, most of the time 39 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: when you come in the game. Can you tell me, like, 40 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: when you come in the game and hit that first one, 41 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: how do you feel. 42 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 3: So it's been like a thing since I was like 43 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: a kid, bro, Like, if I see just one go in, man, 44 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 3: that's all I really need. That's really all Hoopers do 45 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 3: around the world. Though, like, no matter how the game going, 46 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,239 Speaker 3: no matter how you know, if you ozer for five, 47 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 3: oh for six, like you see worst shot go in, shoot, 48 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 3: it's just it's it's game time.

Everybody wants to be 64 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 2: a starter and then you know, be a star in 65 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 2: that role. Usually you have to a coach has to 66 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: usually convince you to get into that role. And a 67 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 2: lot of times, even if they convince you to accept 68 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: that role, the player doesn't really accept that role and 69 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 2: it just never works out. How tell me about the 70 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: the maturation process you've had with that role, because it 71 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: seems like, man, you just it seemed like it just 72 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: fits you or you just know how to just fib 73 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: and he's talking about that. 74 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: So like, Man, obviously, coming to the Bucks, you know, 75 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 3: the lineup was really kind of already set for real. 76 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: Man, you got Jannis, you know, you got Chris, you 77 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 4: got Brooken. 78 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 3: Then at the time when I first came here, you 79 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 3: had d'Arte DiVincenzo and Drew how Today as a starter. 80 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: So just being a pro man, you gotta find you 81 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 3: gotta find a way to impact. 82 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 4: Winning, to help the team win. 83 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 3: You know, not gonna lie like my role has grown 84 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 3: over the years. But when I first came to the Bucks, Man, 85 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 3: I didn't really like feel like a six man for 86 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 3: I just felt like one of the other guys. 87 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 4: You know.

So it just makes it that much easier 102 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 3: for me to just come in just BEBP. I got 103 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: good teammates man, that believe in me. We all work 104 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 3: hard and they know how hard I work. So when 105 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 3: I come in, man, I just try to come in 106 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 3: and impact the game. And what better way than coming 107 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: in and trying to give a team an extra lyft 108 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 3: with's going. 109 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you've been doing that from start to finish 110 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 2: this season. I know things might start off a little 111 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 2: bit slow for you earlier in the season, and you 112 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 2: just seem like you picked it up. I want to 113 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 2: say around to my knowledge, it seemed like around January 114 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: is when you really started to just like hit your stride. 115 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 2: What was it about. I know it's a different team, Dame, 116 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: and you know some new pieces. What was it about 117 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: that time? Were you able to turn the corner, you know. 118 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 3: To get back to the basics for real. Man, You know, 119 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 3: every season is different in the league. You like, like 120 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 3: every year I played in the league has been some 121 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 3: different adversity at some point, Like every year is different. 122 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 3: So this year from last year, you know, we were 123 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 3: the best team in the league. You know, we cruised 124 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 3: through the cruise through the regular season and then get 125 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 3: to the playoffs. We first round exit. You feel me like, 126 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 3: did we come to the new season? I mean, I'll 127 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 3: get back from Team USA, playing with them over the 128 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 3: summertime and get back to Milwaukee, and then suddenly I 129 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: got new We got a whole new team. 130 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 4: You feel me like it just it just changed. 131 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 3: And obviously adding the top seventy five player like Dame 132 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 3: changes everybody role kind of a little bit. To start 133 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 3: the season, we had to figure it out just a 134 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 3: little bit and figure out how we're gonna you know, 135 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 3: I just to implement him with us and then how 136 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 3: we're gonna you know, be with him and find out chemistry. 137 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 4: You know. Obviously we start off the season pretty. 138 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 3: Good, but it was kind of hard just to find 139 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: the find a groove, find the rhythm and inconsistency at first, 140 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 3: and then once January came. Man, just get back to 141 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 3: the basics. I just got back to the gym, get 142 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 3: my form, shots up, and just saying, hey man, it's 143 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 3: just trying to hoot. 144 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 4: Man, stop all that thinking. Man. 145 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 3: I think when you're a basketball player, when you think 146 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 3: too much and think the game and try to do 147 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 3: all the right things throughout the game, you kind of 148 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 3: mess with the game a little bit and being who 149 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 3: you are. And I'm just a guy that goes out 150 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 3: there and plays point five basketball. 151 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 4: If I got a shot, I take it. 152 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 3: If I don't, d h O, I try to get 153 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: to rempenetrating, piss to a teammate, just pay point five ball. 154 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 4: Getting back to that for real. 155 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 2: How challenging has this season been?

In the eighty two game season, 158 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 2: you got a coach and change, which shocked a lot 159 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 2: of people because, believe you, guys were records pretty good. 160 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: I can't remember what it was at the top, but 161 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: it was good enough to get you to get to 162 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 2: have the Bucks coaching staff be the coach of the 163 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 2: Eastern Conference All Stars. So how challenging has this season 164 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: been with all the changes. 165 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 3: I mean, it's been challenging obviously. I think every season 166 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 3: is a challenge, to be honest. 167 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 4: But you know, just as a fan. 168 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 3: Probably of the game, you know, you probably like, hey, like, 169 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 3: why can't all these players that's you know, great guys, 170 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 3: great great players in the league just work automatically, or 171 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 3: why can't this coach, you know, coach these guys up 172 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: to a standard or be. 173 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 4: Whatever it is. But you know, it's like it's not 174 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 4: a video game. 175 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 3: You feel me like we are real life people, Like 176 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 3: we are people in real life. 177 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 4: Sometimes things take time. 178 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: You know. 179 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 3: Adversity isn't always a bad thing, you know, adversity is good. 180 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 3: And I know with US, man, I don't know which 181 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: team in the league has went through more adversity than 182 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: US this season. Like we've been injured most of the years, 183 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 3: some guys been out in and out the lineup. And 184 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 3: we had three different coaches obviously, we had Adrian and 185 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 3: Doc and Joe even coached two or three games as well, 186 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 3: Joe Prunty. So you know, I don't think many teams 187 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 3: been through as much as versity to the US. 188 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 4: So that could be a could be a. 189 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 3: Great thing in the long run for US Man, especially 190 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 3: when playoffs coming. You know, you can hit with their 191 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 3: first hate maker and then you got to respond. 192 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 2: That's a good way to look at it. And my 193 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 2: producer Ryan just sent me a text that you guys 194 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: were thirty and thirteen when Adrian Griffin was dismissed as 195 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: brought in since has brought in Doc Rivers. But yeah, 196 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 2: it was that was a shock to many at that time. 197 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: But BP, I want to ask you. I want to 198 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: get back to the team, but let me ask you 199 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: about this six man real quick. So you know, I 200 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 2: watched again. I watch every BUS game and I see 201 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 2: the contribution. It's like all these awards out there, right, 202 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 2: It's like a lot of voters don't get to see 203 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: watch these guys every day and they don't understand the impact. 204 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 2: They don't understand how vital it is. Like sometimes like 205 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 2: you have you may have a six man candidate, right VP, 206 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: but they play like real starter minutes, like they may 207 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 2: play like thirty five plus like they're playing starter men. 208 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 2: They may play more than some of the starters. And 209 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: then you have six men who come in and they 210 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: have you know, your cap on your limits you know 211 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 2: your your limit cap. You got to get to it exactly, 212 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 2: you get to it. So the names that we're hearing, 213 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 2: you know obviously your name, Bobby Porters, and then a 214 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 2: lot of people show a lot of love for Malik 215 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: Monk with Sacramento. And I'm not trying to ask you 216 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 2: to discourage any other candidates out there, but for people 217 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: who don't get to see or who choose not to 218 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: watch a lot of New Bus games, tell me what 219 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 2: it is that you provide. If you got to explain, okabp, 220 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 2: what is your role on this team? What do you 221 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 2: do for this team on a day to day basis? 222 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: Explain your season in a nutshell to people who probably 223 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 2: aren't informed. 224 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 3: Man, if I could just say one word for real, man, shit, 225 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 3: just just availability. I'm I'm ready every night, bro, Like 226 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 3: I play every game. I think the Bucks have played 227 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 3: eighty one games this season. We got one game left 228 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 3: them all. And I think Barby Reporters has played eighty 229 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: one games as well. Like I'm here, bro, like hurt 230 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 3: whatever it is I'm feeling tired or feeling sluggish, or 231 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 3: my elbow hurting, my knee hurting, Like I'm out here hooping, Bro, 232 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 3: like for real. And you know last year I got 233 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 3: you know, criticized a lot for starting a lot of games. 234 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 3: So I didn't win the award last year. So this 235 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: year I've only started three games. You know, I come 236 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 3: off the bench every night. You know, I don't talk 237 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 3: about the other candidates. Other guys are great, they do 238 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: great for their teams and whatever. But you know, I 239 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 3: just think my impact on my team. Man, It's just 240 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 3: a lot more different. 241 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: Man. 242 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 3: I'm like a heart and soul. You feel me like 243 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 3: I work my heart on my sleeve every single night. 244 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 3: You know, No coach gotta worry about trying to get 245 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 3: number nine hyped up. 246 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 4: He come in already hyped. You feel me. 247 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: BP. Has there been a situation where, uh, the team 248 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 2: might have wanted you to start to start a game 249 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 2: or two, You be like, nah, no, leave me on 250 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: the bitch. I gotta get this. I'm going for the 251 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 2: sixth Mad of War. 252 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 4: Nah, I think. 253 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 3: I think like in years past, I tried to do 254 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: that and Coach Budd still won't going. Yeah, like years past, 255 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: this year I just set up. I really want to 256 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 3: worry about no award or nothing like. I talked about 257 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 3: it a lot last year. And once I fell up 258 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 3: short last year kind of like I ain't gonna say discouraged. 259 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 4: But it was like, dang bro I like average double 260 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: double off the bench, you say, the dude win. Yeah. 261 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 3: But this year I've just been trying to just take 262 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 3: it a day at a time. Man, it's been a 263 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 3: long season, up and down a lot of adversity. So 264 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 3: just trying to be available for my team every night, 265 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 3: no matter who's playing, and try to stack as many 266 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 3: games and stack the camaraderie you going into a postseason. 267 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: But nah, I ain't never really just been like, hey man, 268 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: hey doc I don't. 269 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 4: Want to start doc Na. I ain gonna tell them. 270 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell him that. 271 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: For those who don't know, BP's playing an average of 272 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 2: twenty four minutes a game, averaging just a shade under 273 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 2: fourteen points a game, shooting fifty percent from the field 274 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 2: and shooting forty percent from three with seven point four boards. 275 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: That's crazy. So you think if he's averaging starter minutes, 276 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 2: that's a double double easy. And the season he talked 277 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 2: about last year where he averaged let me see, it 278 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 2: was fourteen point one, shot forty nine percent from the field, 279 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: thirty seven percent from three and he averaged nine point 280 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 2: six rebound and he played almost close to two minutes 281 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 2: more last season per game. So that's what he's speaking 282 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 2: on when he's talking about just the shortcomings. And so BP, 283 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 2: let me let me ask you this. So we're recording 284 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: this on a Saturday and it's going to air Monday morning, 285 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 2: so you guys will already know your pecking order in 286 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 2: the standings, and you talk about availability, BP, and I'm 287 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 2: not trying to persuade you, but just hear me out. 288 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: So you talk about availability here. So if I'm looking 289 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 2: at the standings VP, and if I'm thinking because you 290 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 2: guys ain't been playing well over the last few weeks. 291 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 2: So if I'm looking at the standings, you guys as 292 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 2: the number two seed, you know you could potentially go 293 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 2: against Philly or Miami in that first round depending on 294 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 2: the play. In situation, right, you're at the three seed, 295 00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 2: potentially Orlando or Indianna. So BP, if Doc Rivers comes 296 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 2: to you and says, BP, I'm sorry, I know availability 297 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 2: is important to you, but uh, I think I think 298 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: I like our chances better at number three seed, and 299 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: so we gotta sit you. 300 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 4: No, I'm probably if that's the case for real. 301 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm gonna check in and check out like did. 302 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, I gotta get my eighty that's fair. 303 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 4: But BP, you know, I gotta get this. 304 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: You get that, Don and I and I commend you 305 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 2: on that, BP, but you know, but BP, you know 306 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 2: you come in and out.
