I love to hear that. 172 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 4: Man. 173 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: I want to ask you this just recently, James Well, 174 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: I don't know four point plays like that ship is 175 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: crazy to even have that kind of record, James Harden 176 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: pass you, but what like what the fuck? 177 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 5: Jamal? Four point players? 178 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 3: Like what the fuck? Damn? This is where it comes from, 179 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 3: you d And I knew you would get mad at me. 180 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: Sometimes I get them fouls against Miami and you look 181 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 2: at the ref like you but this is what happened. 182 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 2: I mean like he had he had to straight back 183 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: too at the time. 184 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 3: He had to straight back. 185 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: But my my ninth grade coach shout to Dom Wavefo 186 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: when I was a freshman. He said, college guys and 187 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: pros get their shot from here here as quick as possible. 188 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 2: So when he told me that, I went home and 189 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 2: I worked on it. So I think full circle. That's 190 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 2: why I got fouled so much, because I'll put you 191 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 2: to sleep and I get it from here here. If 192 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: I get it from here here and you don't contest, 193 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 2: what's the first thing a coach gonna say in the 194 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: film session. Now you gotta contest. So they're trying to contest, 195 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna use that against the Dallas. I'm a gazemanship. 196 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 2: I'm gonna bring it to the forefront that it's some contact. 197 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 2: And at that point that part's easy. I already see 198 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 2: the who bro. The hardest part of the four point 199 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: play for me was a free throw. 200 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: That ship is in it, that that ship is in this? 201 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: Do you know that ship was in the scout root 202 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: was a free throw. It was in the Scouley Report 203 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: when we played you, bro, was it, Yes? Yes, do 204 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: not file him on three? 205 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 3: Yes? 206 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: Four point plays? Like do not file him on threes 207 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: four point plays? You? You know what, if I'm not 208 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: mistaken you the reason we probably start side contesting, we 209 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: do the side the side contest. 210 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 5: Now it's this contest from the side killer. 211 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 3: You died that. 212 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: Think about that, right, So if the Scout report is 213 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 2: saying don't foil him, mentally, you are give me a 214 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 2: free shot because you're not gonna really contest. 215 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 3: You'll be there a little bit. But I already got 216 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 3: a free one. I mean. 217 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 1: So that's that's the problem with the side contest is 218 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: if you shot fake, I'm giving you the driving lane 219 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: my business. 220 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, you done left me. You know what I'm saying. 221 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: So if I side contest and go here and I 222 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: open up, you're smart enough basketball player, I do that 223 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: ship once, you're gonna leave me, and you're gonna leave 224 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: me in the running pick and roll with you by 225 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: the way you did because you was damn here a trap. 226 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: It felt like a trap, I said, getting out of 227 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: roll Away.

I tell 237 00:09:57,960 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: my son to watch Darius Garland's cold. 238 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: I like I like Rob Dillyhan. 239 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: He hasn't got a chance to show it yet, but 240 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: he got he got a top five handle. I'm gonna 241 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: put s g. A in there right now because maybe 242 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 2: I'm seeing him so much. 243 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 3: But s G. 244 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 2: A is a sneaky one. And then the fifth one, 245 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: Chris Paul still got to handle. I mean, if we 246 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 2: want to count, if I want to put one of 247 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 2: the O g's and. 248 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 5: Put Chris get to any spot on the court, he won. 249 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: Oh it's Steph.

I'm sorry, Steph. 250 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 2: Shekon cook up. 251 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 5: You see that ship he did last night on the heat. 252 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 2: And La mellow Damna put mellow on that. 253 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 3: That's that's five and then five damn five last. 254 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: Killer hits you with the question about the five the 255 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: best ball handlers in the league. But let me ask 256 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: you this, what about our league as a whole? Where 257 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: we at? Why the ratings down? Where we at? 258 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 5: Talk to me about that. 259 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: What's the problem here besides besides the fact that Netflix 260 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: tried to take Christmas from. 261 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: Us, but what were doing? I'm gonna be honest. I 262 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 2: think my personal opinion is everything looks the same. It's 263 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 2: cookie cutter, like I can plug and play every player 264 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: in almost every system because there's no diversity, it's no creativity. 265 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 3: The guys who are creative and Jah. 266 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: Polo, Sga, LaMelo, them dudes all stand out, Chef Kyrie 267 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 2: because you know what I mean, like Joker Luca, because 268 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 2: they're different than the norm. So I think there's not 269 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 2: enough creativity. I do think there's too many threes, to 270 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 2: be honest with you, but I don't blame the players 271 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 2: for that or the coaches. That's why I kind of 272 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 2: go towards analytics because excuse me, your mother, come the code. 273 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 2: But because we say analytics, we say this this the 274 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 2: three of the layport a free throw. Yes, that's crazy 275 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 2: because that's crazy because where it matters most in the playoffs, 276 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 2: we take whatever bucket we can get, par ray, whatever's 277 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 2: gonna move that scoreboard is what's important at the time. 278 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: So for me, I think I want to see defense 279 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: be more aggressive. And I know I was more of 280 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 2: a score and I want to see it because I 281 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 2: want to see if even my ship works. Shit, I've 282 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: been working all summer. I want to go to La Fitness. 283 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 2: I know it's gonna work, and now I want the 284 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 2: best defenders see if it's gonna work at the toughest 285 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: mom So I want more aggressive defense. 286 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 3: I want I want guys to stop missing games. 287 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 2: If we're gonna gain, if we're gonna low management's low 288 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 2: managing practice, because these kids are out here, may not 289 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 2: see you, but once a year, I want to see 290 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 2: my favorite players play if they can. And I think 291 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 2: just the creativity, that's why I'm at with it, and 292 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 2: we need more of Jesus. 293 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I love the fact that you said that, 294 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: because when we had Dre on, we talked about what 295 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: the league could do different, we talked about what the 296 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: players Association could do different. But I looked Dre in 297 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: his eyes and I said, but as players, we can 298 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 1: do better as well. As players, we can be we 299 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: can be more accountable as far as playing games and 300 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: playing the right way and doing things like that, we 301 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: can do better as well. So I think, you know, 302 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: for in order us, for us to get the game 303 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: where we think it should be and back where it belongs, 304 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: everybody got to take some accountability. 305 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 3: But do y'all remember, do y'all remember when we were 306 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 3: in high school in middle school, like, man, I would 307 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 3: do anything to gain in the NBA. I was a kid. 308 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 2: I was like, Man, I'll pay the NBA, let me 309 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 2: play anb I wouldn'tven want to put no money. 310 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 3: I just I want to be out there so bad. 311 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: If we stay as pros connected to that kid, it's 312 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: gonna always guide you the way you need to go. 313 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 3: Nah, you got to you gotta push through. 314 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 2: You're a little so okay, we got to push through, 315 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 2: take care of it, practice, you know, whatever it is. 316 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 3: But these kids are out there and we have to 317 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 3: we have to give them inspiration. We have to. 318 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 2: That's our job, it's our duty. We have to tell 319 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 2: them the little things that matter. And part of the 320 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: game too. I think some of these trainers, I gotta 321 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: call the trainers. They're not teaching the right things. It's 322 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 2: gonna transfer games. It's really individualized. Like when I grew up, 323 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 2: I love the Lakers because I knew they had Magic 324 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 2: and Kareem and I could identify.
