Speaker 1: had to take home everything, every last book, every last
Speaker 1: piece of art. And if you have small children, you
Speaker 1: know they make art all day long, all day long.
Speaker 1: That's there's a whole I have draws of just pictures
Speaker 1: and paintings that they did. That not the best, but
Speaker 1: they made them, so you just keep them. We wear
Speaker 1: something one day. I don't know about that. My friend
Speaker 1: Dahlia and her daughter Zoe made me a beautiful drawing.
Speaker 1: It's hanging on my fridge. I love when people's kids

Speaker 1: I gotta watch you make it. Just got to be
Speaker 1: a commission piece of art. Yeah. So yeah, So yesterday
Speaker 1: was the last day, so we just chilled out. They
Speaker 1: all they wanted to do was get ice cream and
Speaker 1: then they're ready for camp. They were pretty upset because
Speaker 1: they have summer reading now. All I used to love
Speaker 1: summer reading, did you That's why. Look, you know I'm
Speaker 1: an ambassador for the New York Public Library, and that
Speaker 1: is because when I was young, I used to read
Speaker 1: books all the time. I spent all my spare time
Speaker 1: in the library reading books, and I used to love
Speaker 1: the summer reading list. I don't know about most people
Speaker 1: out there, but I used to get into arguments with
Speaker 1: my parents because I used to wait for the last
Speaker 1: five days to do my summer homework and summer reading.
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to do it early. You just want to
Speaker 1: enjoy summer. I used to read all kind of bugs.
Speaker 1: I used to read like a book a day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was outside. All right, Well, let's get the show cracking.
Speaker 1: We got a special guest joining us. He's an NBA trainer,
Speaker 1: the most famous NBA trainer in the world, Chris Brickley
Speaker 1: will be joining us this morning. He's trained everybody from
Speaker 1: Lebron James to Carmelo Anthony to J Cole, Jimmy Butler
Speaker 1: to J Cole. So we'll talk to him in a
Speaker 1: little bit. And then we got front page news what
Speaker 1: we're talking about, and Chicago officers will not be allowed
Speaker 1: to chase people on foot anymore, even if they suspect
Speaker 1: them of minor offenses. But that's only for minor offensive.
Speaker 1: So they'll no longer be able to chase people on foot, right,
Speaker 1: I understand, and I get that. We'll tell you why
Speaker 1: why I tell people? All right, we'll talk about it
Speaker 1: when we come down your rights morning. Everybody is DJ
Speaker 1: Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are to breakfast club.
Speaker 1: Let's gett some front page news where we're starting easy. Well,
Speaker 1: then Chicago police are no longer allowed to chase people
Speaker 1: on foot, and that's over minor offensive. So somebody starts running,
Speaker 1: and that's only because of minor offenses. By the way,
Speaker 1: if you're suspected of parking violations, driving on a suspended license,
Speaker 1: or drinking alcohol and public things like that. I don't
Speaker 1: understand why they would tell people that. Well, there were
Speaker 1: some shootings that happened, and so they have to make
Speaker 1: some permanent rules in response to public outrage. And so
Speaker 1: you know that's because there's been some chases where there's
Speaker 1: a thirteen year old Adam Toledo in twenty two year
Speaker 1: old Anthony Alvarez. They want people to avoid contact with
Speaker 1: the police. For minor offenses like that. So if I'm
Speaker 1: a criminal and I know that you're not gonna chase me,
Speaker 1: So I can walk into a Walmart or Walgreens or whatever,
Speaker 1: any one of those stores or best Buy and steal
Speaker 1: something and you're not gonna chase me. What is that
Speaker 1: going to encourage me to do? I mean it's you know,
Speaker 1: you can still get arrested later, but they're just not
Speaker 1: going to chase you because I guess too many things
Speaker 1: have happened and we're talking about only minor offenses like
Speaker 1: a misdean a misdemeanor like domestic battery, or a serious
Speaker 1: traffic offense like drunk driving, things like that that could
Speaker 1: risk or injure other people. They can still chase you
Speaker 1: if they believe that you're committing a felony or a
Speaker 1: class A misdemeanor. But if I run into a local
Speaker 1: sneaker store where you're a mom and pop sneaker store
Speaker 1: and grabs with sneakers and run, you're on your own,
Speaker 1: that's wow. Yeah, you know, people that are working those
Speaker 1: stars aren't allowed to chase you either. Yeah, but that's
Speaker 1: why you usually call the police. But if the police
Speaker 1: ain't gonna do it. It's gonna encourage more breakings. I
Speaker 1: guess the only way they could do it is with
Speaker 1: video camera footage and figuring out who it is and
Speaker 1: coming to your home to arrest you. Are playing a
Speaker 1: warrant out for you, and that's going to be difficult
Speaker 1: because everybody wears masks and hoods. Yeah, I mean, I
Speaker 1: just don't understand why you're telling people, Like I get it,
Speaker 1: you know you want to do that, but why tell
Speaker 1: everybody because that's going to do nothing but encourage people
Speaker 1: to do it. Go to the Apple I phone store,
Speaker 1: take a phone. You can you can't can't chase me.
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember there was a time when in Newark,
Speaker 1: New Jersey, they couldn't if somebody stole a car. They
Speaker 1: couldn't chase stolen cars because people were dying in those
Speaker 1: car chases. They still can, so I guess they feel like,
Speaker 1: if you know, it could lead to some type of
Speaker 1: gunfire exchange and some bystanders getting hurt, people getting killed
Speaker 1: for a minor offense, they still can't on a high
Speaker 1: speed chase. They're trying to change that unless it's a
Speaker 1: car jacket. I'm saying. Back in the day, it used
Speaker 1: to be like that, though it used to be like
Speaker 1: they didn't chase you at all if it was a
Speaker 1: stolen car, you know. But the part the department said
Speaker 1: that after two foot pursuits ended with officers fatally shooting
Speaker 1: a thirteen year old and a twenty two year old,
Speaker 1: So that's the response. People get mad and the department
Speaker 1: has to do something, all right at three point two
Speaker 1: million dollars, settlement has been reached in the police killing
Speaker 1: of Dante Right. This was in a suburban Minneapolis city.
Speaker 1: Police have agreed to pay three point two million dollars
Speaker 1: to his family. He was twenty year old black man
Speaker 1: who was fatally shot by a police officer who said
Speaker 1: she confused her gun for a taser. So this also
Speaker 1: includes changes and policies and in training involving traffic stops
Speaker 1: like the one that resulted in Dante Wright's death. So
Speaker 1: that's according to a statement from attorneys representing rights family.
Speaker 1: The police are heard She's heard yelling taser several times
Speaker 1: Kim Potter before she fired her pistol. I wonder how
Speaker 1: they decide how much money they're going to give somebody.
Speaker 1: Is that, you know, is you know, because somebody's life like,
Speaker 1: he's a young man. He had a whole life to live.
Speaker 1: So how did they this what somebody's life is quote
Speaker 1: unquote worth? You know when they when they do those settlements.
Speaker 1: I'm just always curious about that. Yeah, if you remember
Speaker 1: last year they paid twenty seven million dollars to George
Speaker 1: Floyd's family, So that was one of the largest settlements.
Speaker 1: Why one three million, one twenty seven million? Like how
Speaker 1: does that work? You know? Well, I can't answer that question.
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know what I'm just it's curious. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I'm just curious how they decide, you know, how
Speaker 1: much they're gonna give somebody because you know it's a
Speaker 1: young man. I mean, he had a potential, he had
Speaker 1: a family. You know how I would is wont to
Speaker 1: get three million? One, get ten one, get twenty seven one,
Speaker 1: get twenty five? Like how do they mean that fatal mistake?
Speaker 1: I mistook my taser for a gun. Yeah, now I
Speaker 1: killed you? All right, Well that is your front page news,
Speaker 1: all right, get it off your chest. Eight hundred five
Speaker 1: eight five one oh five one. If you need to vent,

Speaker 1: I gotta get this off my chests. Man. My wife's
Speaker 1: got a friend that I don't necessarily like too much.
Speaker 1: And she just keeps flowing the first ship in front
Speaker 1: of me like we had bees back in the day,
Speaker 1: and she just it just bothers me. Man, it bothers me.
Speaker 1: Big talk. It's a dude. This is like now a
Speaker 1: female a female female Yo did just face me back

Speaker 1: gonna argument one time. She called me all college did
Speaker 1: you spec when they came to say the stuff from
Speaker 1: the radio. But they first ship never lost to beat.
Speaker 1: I tell them like, yo, listen, man, either wanted an
Speaker 1: apology or something, and I never got it. Well, you
Speaker 1: know what it's hard about. That. That's why sometimes when
Speaker 1: you get into an argument with your man or something
Speaker 1: happens and you tell your friends, they might not never
Speaker 1: like your man again after that. I don't care if
Speaker 1: you don't like me or night. But yeah, but that's

Speaker 1: it seems like it's it's some tension. But when she
Speaker 1: comes around, so just squash that out my face. That's
Speaker 1: the thing that bothers me. They went out against me
Speaker 1: the Philly to go see T. D. James's daughter. I
Speaker 1: don't even know that. The girl was going all over
Speaker 1: Instagram and everything's like I would say, this is also
Speaker 1: probably a difficult situation for your wife to be in,
Speaker 1: like to have to choose between her good friend and
Speaker 1: her husband when y'all was both wrong. It's not a choice.
Speaker 1: She should always choose your husband now. But I mean,
Speaker 1: that's her good friend. He should. They were both wrong, right,
Speaker 1: so they should just talk it out. Squashed that's all
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like he's too short if I want to

Speaker 1: were with TJ, by the way, were also arrested for
Speaker 1: a second degree unlawful possession of a weapon because his
Speaker 1: two friends pulled out their guns to protect Little TJ's
Speaker 1: life and they got charge as well, which is wild.
Speaker 1: And you know, I know guns are illegal, but in
Speaker 1: this situation is like little TJ was mine in his business.
Speaker 1: He was going to Chipotle and his friends was with
Speaker 1: him and somebody tried to rob him. So you think
Speaker 1: about it like this. If his friends didn't have that weapon,
Speaker 1: would they have killed TJ? You know? And it's sad
Speaker 1: that his friends were protecting They weren't doing anything aggressive.
Speaker 1: They probably were just protecting his friend. And now they
Speaker 1: probably have to go to jail for it, for protecting
Speaker 1: their friend that got shot four times. And the one
Speaker 1: individual that got shot, you know, he he was arrested too.
Speaker 1: That's a sticky slope. That's a slippery slope when it
Speaker 1: comes to that stuff. All right now. Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin,
Speaker 1: he's also a friend to the show and he's a
Speaker 1: minority owner of the Philadelphia seventy Sixers, is selling his steak,
Speaker 1: and that's in the Harris Splitcher Sports and Entertainment company
Speaker 1: that owns his Sixers and New Jersey Devils. He announced
Speaker 1: this yesterday. He has a ten percent equity steak and
Speaker 1: he's divesting his eleven year steak in the NBA and
Speaker 1: NHL franchise is because of conflicts, and that's all because
Speaker 1: of his expansion of his Fanatics business. He posted on
Speaker 1: social media, thank you Sixers fans. My life has been
Speaker 1: anything but predictable, but there have always been two constance,
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia seventy six Ers and my love of building businesses.
Speaker 1: And he talked about his love for the team and
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty three championship and how everything led to Fanatics,
Speaker 1: the success of which has brought him back to the
Speaker 1: seventy Sixers. He said that over the past few years,
Speaker 1: I've been fortunate to leave Fanatics into becoming one of
Speaker 1: the biggest and what I hope will become one of
Speaker 1: the most exciting businesses in both sports and technology. When
Speaker 1: I was part of the ownership group that acquired the
Speaker 1: Sixers in twenty eleven, Fanatics was just getting started with
Speaker 1: a small office in King of Prussia selling only licensed
Speaker 1: sports products online. Today, Fanatics has quickly transformed into a
Speaker 1: global digital sports platform across multiple businesses. So as that
Speaker 1: business has grown, he has more obstacles that he has
Speaker 1: to navigate so that it doesn't conflict with his responsibilities
Speaker 1: as part owner of the seventy sixers. So with that,
Speaker 1: he's going to have to sell his stake. Yeah, tencent.
Speaker 1: I wonder what that ten percent is worth A lot,
Speaker 1: Like what is it worth? Like you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what. Fanatics is a twenty billion
Speaker 1: dollars plus company. I mean, I get it. I mean,
Speaker 1: if Mike Rubin is selling, he's got more of a
Speaker 1: steak in that. Yeah, he's doing it for a reason,
Speaker 1: But I'm just curious to what that's worth that ten percent. Now,
Speaker 1: Rick Ross posted that he would buy his ten percent,
Speaker 1: and you know, Mike, Mike Rubin initially purchased into that
Speaker 1: group for about two hundred and ninety million dollars for
Speaker 1: his ten percent steak, But that has grown a lot
Speaker 1: in the past decade. So back in twenty eleven, it
Speaker 1: was two hundred and ninety million and now worth way
Speaker 1: more than that. Oh so he bought that ten percent
Speaker 1: share for two hundred and ninety million. Wow. Yeah, Oh
Speaker 1: he about the cash out. Oh, he's about the cash out,
Speaker 1: cash out. He's like, yeeks, listen, I'll stick with my
Speaker 1: twenty billion dollars. All right, Well that is your rumor report.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you, miss ye. Now we got front
Speaker 1: page news. Next, what we're talking about, Yes, and let's
Speaker 1: talk about these January sixth hearings. I want to make
Speaker 1: sure that everybody is paying attention to what's going on
Speaker 1: at these hearings. So we'll tell you what's happening. As
Speaker 1: the hearings have been pushed for several weeks as their
Speaker 1: beau considering new evidence. Now, all right, we'll get into that. Next.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, So Breakfast Club, your
Speaker 1: mornings will never be the same. A great night's sleep
Speaker 1: starts at Matches Firm this summer. Right now, Matches Firm
Speaker 1: is giving you a chance to win your dream bedroom
Speaker 1: suite valued up to twenty five hundred dollars plus one
Speaker 1: thousand dollars cash. To enter in view official rules, vis
Speaker 1: at breakfast club online dot com. Good morning, everybody is
Speaker 1: dj Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are to
Speaker 1: breakfast club. Let's getting some front page news where we're
Speaker 1: starting easy, all right, Well, January sixth hearings have been
Speaker 1: pushed for several weeks. They're going to delay the final
Speaker 1: hearing and that's because of additional evidence that they have
Speaker 1: received that's relevant to the investigation. And so this should
Speaker 1: be pretty interesting. Now. I don't know if you've been
Speaker 1: following this to see what happened, but apparently there were
Speaker 1: some British documentarian who was following Donald Trump, his family
Speaker 1: and his aids and conducted interviews with them as well
Speaker 1: for weeks before and after the twenty twenty election, and
Speaker 1: they said there's a lot of information that the committee
Speaker 1: has that has also been submitted to a tip line
Speaker 1: as well, so that new evidence has hours of video
Speaker 1: footage that has been handed over. Yeah. I just hope
Speaker 1: that they're able to do something with all this stuff.
Speaker 1: And it's just not a waste of money and a
Speaker 1: waste of the public's money, you know. Man. I was
Speaker 1: glad that those two women that we played yesterday whose
Speaker 1: lives were ruined by Donald Trump saying their names on
Speaker 1: television Ruby. I believe it wasn't her daughter, Shay, and
Speaker 1: because I think there's just been a lot of misinformation
Speaker 1: that's been put out there, and they've been accused of
Speaker 1: being women who were they were actually volunteering to work
Speaker 1: at the polls, at the election polls, and instead people
Speaker 1: were looking at them as people who were scammers because
Speaker 1: that's what Giuliani and Donald Trump said about them, and
Speaker 1: they were scamming elections and doing fraud. And that's wasn't
Speaker 1: too and I'm glad they didn't have a chance to
Speaker 1: have their story heard nationally. Yeah, a lot of people
Speaker 1: have been supporting them, and I've been telling people, you know,
Speaker 1: whatever their businesses, which I don't know, we need to
Speaker 1: support them. We need to go to the business, we
Speaker 1: need to hug on them, we need to make sure
Speaker 1: we spend dollars with them. We make sure it's called
Speaker 1: Ruby's Unique Treasures. That's what it's called. Lady Ruby and
Speaker 1: miss Shay Moss. We definitely need to support them and
Speaker 1: continue to support them because they definitely tried to shut
Speaker 1: those women's business down and all those women tried to
Speaker 1: do was try to help. Yeah, I think it is
Speaker 1: important for all this information that's relevant to this investigation
Speaker 1: to get out and for people to hear what really happened, right,
Speaker 1: you know, from people who were there, even people who
Speaker 1: are on Trump's team who are discussing what happened. So
Speaker 1: I do feel like we need to do this. You
Speaker 1: can't just let it slide, right, all right? And the
Speaker 1: committee had planned at least two more hearings beyond these sessions,
Speaker 1: but now they're saying that with this new evidence and
Speaker 1: potentially new witnesses, there's going to be other hearings added
Speaker 1: most likely. All right, now, an alleged kidnapping victim was
Speaker 1: rescued after calling for help through grub Hub. So this
Speaker 1: incident took place at around five am Sunday, and it
Speaker 1: was in Yonkers. A Yonkers based chipper truck cafe received
Speaker 1: a grub hub order for a breakfast sandwich and a burger,
Speaker 1: but there was an alarming message under the additional instruction section.
Speaker 1: It said, please call the police. He's going to call
Speaker 1: me when you delivered. Come with the cones. Please don't
Speaker 1: make it obvious. So I don't know clearly it was
Speaker 1: like some you know, misspellings or whatever it was that
Speaker 1: she was trying to portray but you see, please call
Speaker 1: the police, and so the workers immediately called the cafe's
Speaker 1: owners asked how they should handle the situation. They saw
Speaker 1: the note on the order and they said what should
Speaker 1: we do? So the order was supposed to be delivered
Speaker 1: in the Eastchester neighborhood of the Bronx. Police arrived at
Speaker 1: the residence shortly after and found a twenty four year
Speaker 1: old woman who claimed the man had raped her and
Speaker 1: was holding her against her will. Authorities then arrested him.
Speaker 1: He's identified as thirty two year old Keymorey Royal at
Speaker 1: his home and he has been hit with multiple charges
Speaker 1: including unlawful imprisonment, strangulation, rape, as well as criminal sex
Speaker 1: act and sexual abuse. I'm glad they gotta I mean
Speaker 1: glad they got they got her out of there, and
Speaker 1: I'm glad they arrested those individuals. And it was so
Speaker 1: smart for her to use that, you know now. The
Speaker 1: owners Chipper Truck Cafe said they have not met the
Speaker 1: woman yet, but they did get a phone call from
Speaker 1: one of her friends who thanked them and said, thank
Speaker 1: you so much for helping my friend and just making
Speaker 1: sure she was fine. We really had no idea of
Speaker 1: the gravity of the situation until after everything happened, so
Speaker 1: they said they hoped to get to meet her one day. No,
Speaker 1: that is amazing, And man, the sad part about it
Speaker 1: is right, that's a great thing that happened. But now,
Speaker 1: if I'm a kidnapple, I know not to let the
Speaker 1: people use grubhub or it were eat or anything like
Speaker 1: that to do it. But that was so smart. That
Speaker 1: was the way to think it. And I'm glad that
Speaker 1: that grubhub orderer actually read it and was able to
Speaker 1: call the police, you know. And I think it was
Speaker 1: a scam or a joke or just something, you know, whatever,
Speaker 1: you gotta stuff like that. And on the same day
Speaker 1: of his arrest, the guy Royal was charged with attempting
Speaker 1: to rape a second woman at his home on June fifteenth.
Speaker 1: That victim managed to escape, But they don't know why
Speaker 1: he wasn't arrested for that incident until day when this happened.
Speaker 1: That's crazy, all right, Well that is your front page news,
Speaker 1: all right. When we come back, Chris Brickley will be
Speaker 1: joining us. He's an NBA trainer. He's trained everybody from
Speaker 1: Lebron James to Carmelo Anthony. He's been on. He came
Speaker 1: on the show a couple of last year, actually, right
Speaker 1: before Melo got back into the league, and we asked
Speaker 1: him and he said, Mello was better than sixty percent
Speaker 1: of the players in the NBA and everybody in trouble.
Speaker 1: You got in trouble for that, and he was made
Speaker 1: fun of. He was all over everywhere, and he was right.
Speaker 1: And Melo got back in the league and started busting ass.
Speaker 1: And Chris used to work for the Knicks originally, but
Speaker 1: he got he decided to leave, and he'll tell you
Speaker 1: that whole story about everything and how it happens. But
Speaker 1: he's like the secret weapon for a lot of NBA players.
Speaker 1: That's right, And we're gonna talk to him when we
Speaker 1: come back, So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning,
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Speaker 1: Charlomagne and the God. We all the Breakfast Club. We
Speaker 1: got a special guests in the building. We have all
Speaker 1: star basketball trainer Chris Brickley. Welcome, how are you doing back?
Speaker 1: And you came with gifts? I did come with gifts. Everybody,
Speaker 1: the creators of the Thera gun. I was saying, I
Speaker 1: got my dad a theragun for his birthday and he
Speaker 1: loves it. It's a good gift. My son stole you
Speaker 1: guys ever used these? So these are like legs, recovery legs.
Speaker 1: Oh boys, going to be going plusses out to toxins
Speaker 1: before you go to sleep. It kind of relaxes you.
Speaker 1: I'm excited, gas. You got all the body armor and
Speaker 1: then we got it. Yeah, I got a whole bunch
Speaker 1: of endorsements. The last time you were here, you almost
Speaker 1: got canceled. I literally did you up here? This is
Speaker 1: right before Carmelo Anthony came back in the league. Yea,
Speaker 1: And everybody knows I'm a Melo fan. Shout to Melo.
Speaker 1: And I asked you about below, and you said he
Speaker 1: was better than the sixty percent of the players in
Speaker 1: the NBA. I did, and they laughed at you. They
Speaker 1: said your buck. First. Take Stephen A. Smith. Everyone everyone
Speaker 1: wanted to kill me. And then a month later he's
Speaker 1: an NBA starter. A few years later he's top ten
Speaker 1: score of all time and then top seventy five player
Speaker 1: of all time. But yeah, when I said that, people
Speaker 1: thought it was crazy crazy. Did you see Stephen Asmith
Speaker 1: after that? Nah? I've ever seen them, but late. The
Speaker 1: thing about Chris is that he humbly would be right
Speaker 1: and not really say anything about it. But yeah, but
Speaker 1: but it definitely affected me for sure, everyone in the
Speaker 1: sports from my Bleacher report to how it was it
Speaker 1: highlights to ESPN, like it was like a big topic
Speaker 1: in the sports world. Is it a big topic now
Speaker 1: that you were right? Ah? Nah to the mellow fans obviously,
Speaker 1: but people, you know, people only want controversies. So I
Speaker 1: don't understand why they wouldn't necessarily trust you because you
Speaker 1: trained pretty much. You train a lot of people. I
Speaker 1: do all stars people or you know that that are
Speaker 1: not necessarily all stars. Jake trained a bunch of people,
Speaker 1: so you know, I don't know what I even believe it.
Speaker 1: So how was training Jay Cole? And how do you
Speaker 1: think of Jay cole skills? That was like the best
Speaker 1: thing I've ever done as a trainer, just because I
Speaker 1: learned everything I learned. So we broke down his shot. So,
Speaker 1: you know, Jake Coles probably gonna laugh at this. You know,
Speaker 1: people that have like the shot up here, like the release,
Speaker 1: So he had a release up here. He's like, Chris,
Speaker 1: I'll do you know, I'm willing to give you my
Speaker 1: time to reconstruct my shot. So to reconstruct someone shot
Speaker 1: when you're thirty, when you're in your thirties, that's you know,
Speaker 1: they need to break twenty years a half. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: So we literally for a month straight shot with one
Speaker 1: hand in the paint. That's all we did. You go
Speaker 1: for like an hour and a half a day, every
Speaker 1: single day, put his kids to sleep, ride his bike
Speaker 1: over to the summit, him in a security guard. It's
Speaker 1: my gym, and we would be reconstructed a shot. Now
Speaker 1: he's playing pro now. I think he's played in the
Speaker 1: NBA Africa. Then he just played in the Canadian League
Speaker 1: on Drake's team, and uh, he's still going. You know,
Speaker 1: he's coming back, gonna workout, and I think his career
Speaker 1: he's still has a future. Do you think he can
Speaker 1: make the NBA um now? Nah? I think no. I
Speaker 1: think that he can. I think he can take it
Speaker 1: a little further though. I think he could play in
Speaker 1: the G League for sure. I mean, I do the NBA.
Speaker 1: The Black Ops runs all NBA players and he plays
Speaker 1: in them, and he scores baskets, he defends. He can play.
Speaker 1: So I think the G League is going to be
Speaker 1: calling his name. Could you be an artist and also
Speaker 1: a player, because that's a lot of you know, that
Speaker 1: takes a lot of dedication to both, for sure. For sure.
Speaker 1: I guess it depends on your priorities. If your priorities
Speaker 1: are just music, being a family man in basketball, you
Speaker 1: could do it. You know. I feel like some artists
Speaker 1: their priorities are whatever it is. But you know, he's
Speaker 1: a man of his priorities. He works hard at basketball.
Speaker 1: So I definitely think and now this isn't him saying it,
Speaker 1: is me saying it, but I think he can play
Speaker 1: in the league. And now also, so you had a
Speaker 1: birthday party recently. I did. It was lit. Yes, I
Speaker 1: invited you to. I wasn't here. I know I was mad,
Speaker 1: but I saw some stories came out of it, and
Speaker 1: people thought that, you know, certain teammates would be playing together.
Speaker 1: I think it was Jimmy Butler for sure, and Donovan Mitchell. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So you know, free agency the NBA now is like
Speaker 1: it's entertainment the off season. It's like what are these
Speaker 1: players doing? Where are these guys going? So Donovan Mitchell
Speaker 1: and Jimmy Butler are hanging out, and you know, the
Speaker 1: media made it into a thing like, oh, Jimmy Butler
Speaker 1: invite Donovan Mitchell and is this gonna because Donovan Mitchell
Speaker 1: is gonna play in the heat. So you know that
Speaker 1: that media ran with that. Um yeah, that's how ye
Speaker 1: birthday party makes the news. I also said, Jimmy Butler
Speaker 1: credited you with helping him with his three pointer. Man,
Speaker 1: that was amazing. Uh Like after you know, he scored
Speaker 1: forty five one night and on National TV in the
Speaker 1: interview for first question to asked him, he answered it,
Speaker 1: He's like, you know, I'd like to give a shout
Speaker 1: out to my trainer, Chris Brickley, which is like rare
Speaker 1: for a player to do that. They have a coaching staff,
Speaker 1: they have you know, and the reality is I'm not
Speaker 1: the only reason why he was shooting well, but now
Speaker 1: he's just a great guy. Props to players that you know,
Speaker 1: give give props to their trainers like that doesn't that
Speaker 1: doesn't happen a lot, especially publicly. I think, like in
Speaker 1: the music industry, you know, you don't hear about them
Speaker 1: talking about the engineers or the producers a lot, and
Speaker 1: so it's rare for amba player to do that. So
Speaker 1: shut out Jimmy, But that's what you're kind of like
Speaker 1: a ghostwriter a little bit. I guess for basketball, did
Speaker 1: some people try to secretly work with you and so
Speaker 1: that people don't know that they're improving their game. So
Speaker 1: you have to like keep it under wraps because they're like, okay,
Speaker 1: they definitely keep it on the low. So some guys
Speaker 1: like doing no video, no pictures because they don't want
Speaker 1: it out there. Some guys want that, so we want
Speaker 1: we want video. I want people seeing that work hard.
Speaker 1: But yeah, now some people are low about it for sure.
Speaker 1: Coaching staff staffs like you or don't like you because
Speaker 1: it's a great cry. They train one way and you
Speaker 1: might train another way. So do they prefer people work
Speaker 1: with you or they'd be like don't effro Chris so
Speaker 1: around the first time I came on this show, they
Speaker 1: hated me just because I was young. I was a
Speaker 1: younger right for what I did. They just didn't respect me.
Speaker 1: Other way this has been I've been in the game
Speaker 1: like eight years now, doing at the highest level possible,
Speaker 1: working out with all stars every year, so you can't
Speaker 1: really say I'm doing anything wrong. So now I have
Speaker 1: a great relationship with a lot of these coaches, and
Speaker 1: I think in the future, I could see myself, you know,
Speaker 1: going back to the NBA, going to the front office.
Speaker 1: Um so yeah, now I have their respect. But when
Speaker 1: you do work for a team, like when you worked
Speaker 1: with the Knicks, you're not allowed to work with other players, right,
Speaker 1: I'm not. And that was why I left. I got
Speaker 1: to the Knicks guard, Yeah, I got I got a
Speaker 1: super fine. When I was with the Knicks, my love
Speaker 1: was like, hey, let's do a five on five. Let's
Speaker 1: do five on five games. So I had Katie, come, Kawhi, Leonard,
Speaker 1: all these guys. And then I go to the office
Speaker 1: next day and they're like, you need to go to
Speaker 1: Dolan's office. The team got a fifty thousand dollars fine
Speaker 1: because you did five on five runs without Knicks players.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, so you didn't have one Knicks player. No,
Speaker 1: so it was like JR. I like three Knicks players,
Speaker 1: seven non Knicks players. I didn't know that I couldn't
Speaker 1: do that. So ESPN talked about it, and UM, yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought I wasn't get fired that day. I didn't,
Speaker 1: but uh yet, So I was part of the reason
Speaker 1: why I left the Knicks. What about coaching for you, Um,
Speaker 1: you know it's there's no stability. Look at these coaches.
Speaker 1: You you could went for two years loose. For one
Speaker 1: year you're fired. Then you gotta move your family to
Speaker 1: another state, another team. You won't have a job. I
Speaker 1: don't want to live my life like that. So I
Speaker 1: was gonna ask what players do you see that's coming
Speaker 1: up the rink that people are sleeping one that you
Speaker 1: say is going to be the next yo. You know
Speaker 1: who's actually getting tall like Kaye and Anthony. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: just crazy. So you know, I've seen his whole come up.
Speaker 1: Mellow's kind of put me on and now he's like
Speaker 1: taller than me six to four. Working out with Mellow.
Speaker 1: Him and Mellow are like playing ones like he's in
Speaker 1: he's gonna be He's gonna be special. He's got his
Speaker 1: first few Division one offers. He's a freshman in high school.
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be special. There's a bunch of
Speaker 1: kids and Jackson, he's number two in the country. He's
Speaker 1: in out of Harlem. Uh, Brownie, Brownie's gonna be nice.
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's a bunch of kids about in the
Speaker 1: NBA show. Anybody in the NBA. You see people are
Speaker 1: sleeping one that you feel like they're gonna get their chance.
Speaker 1: I mean because like Pool, nobody thought Pool was going
Speaker 1: to be turned out to be an amazing player. I
Speaker 1: don't know that's too many guys, but there are definitely.
Speaker 1: So NBA is all opportunity reality. If you're not a star,
Speaker 1: then the fifteenth guy in the bench, if given the opportunity,
Speaker 1: could be a starter, and the six guy could be
Speaker 1: playing in Europe. Like it's literally about you given opportunity
Speaker 1: or not. That's what the NBA is. And know your
Speaker 1: role too, right, Yes, a lot of guys can't accept
Speaker 1: it because you go your whole youth and you're just
Speaker 1: the man. Then it's like, all right, you're an NBA team,
Speaker 1: you have three stars with you, you can catch and shoot,
Speaker 1: play d we don't want anything more. And guys can't
Speaker 1: accept that, and that's why they're out the league. Can
Speaker 1: we get to the music for a second, because I
Speaker 1: know this is something that Chris is really excited about
Speaker 1: for sure. I mean I was excited about it, and
Speaker 1: so I had to deal with these prices. So you know,
Speaker 1: it's funny. Bobby Schmurder said something last night we just
Speaker 1: talked about that. Yo. I felt that my heart like
Speaker 1: I hit him. I was like, yo, So all these
Speaker 1: producers are trying to charge him all this money money,
Speaker 1: and he has to pay for this, and he's like,
Speaker 1: why are you put ten people the song? Yes, so
Speaker 1: I have like a whole body of work done, like
Speaker 1: and so I've released one song, a Dirk song. I
Speaker 1: have a whole body of work done some crazy artists.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be amazing. So the album is still called
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Grind. Welcome to the Grind. Okay, so
Speaker 1: the Grind clearly that makes sense when it comes to training,
Speaker 1: when it comes to basketball, but when it comes to
Speaker 1: life in general, for sure. I mean I think we
Speaker 1: all are. We all live off of music, and I
Speaker 1: think you know I saw originally I put the project
Speaker 1: together because when we go to the gym before workout,
Speaker 1: right before we start, I go to the player, I say,
Speaker 1: what album you want to listen to? They tell me
Speaker 1: the album play that's what we listened to. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I want my own album. So it's
Speaker 1: like a workout heavy album. So it starts off might
Speaker 1: be like some slow vibes. That's when you're stretching, then
Speaker 1: it gets into some up tempo stuff, and then it
Speaker 1: ends with some like R and B when you're cooling down,
Speaker 1: so it'll be like a whole it will be like
Speaker 1: a whole journey of a workout. So that was kind
Speaker 1: of how it started. And then I started getting so
Speaker 1: many fire like slower songs, some R and B song
Speaker 1: songs that are like I feel like it gonna be hits.
Speaker 1: So then I'm like, damn, welcome to the grind. But
Speaker 1: even in life, like you get in your car, you
Speaker 1: go to work, you're welcome to the grind, So it
Speaker 1: kind of goes with all of that. I'm super excited
Speaker 1: about this, Like I said, the woe, the whole project's done.
Speaker 1: I just need these clearances. I'm doing independent too, so
Speaker 1: I didn't want to go into a big label and
Speaker 1: do that game. So I'm doing it like myself. That's
Speaker 1: hurt me a little bit because I don't have like
Speaker 1: a machine behind me. But at the same time, the
Speaker 1: first song did great, uh, but also it was Dirk's
Speaker 1: kind of like a cheeko and anything Dirk drops is
Speaker 1: is crazy. But uh, yeah, you know, the whole thing
Speaker 1: is nuts. Like I look on Spotify. A little Spotify page.
Speaker 1: I've like a close to three hundred thousand monthly listeners.
Speaker 1: I'll the one song, so I'm excited to start building
Speaker 1: that now, Dirk. They say it gets busy with basketball.
Speaker 1: Really yeah? Atter all the rappers? Who was the top five?
Speaker 1: Nown top five? J Cole's one one is a number one,
Speaker 1: number one, I'm gonna na him one five, number two,
Speaker 1: it's Chris Brown. Number three's dirt. Number four is Quevo
Speaker 1: damn number five days. But Dave just stopped playing. But
Speaker 1: if Dave wants to train, he would be two. Dave's nice. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Das Hooper, Now do you think Chris Brown could play
Speaker 1: in some of these leagues that Jacole plays. Chris Brown's
Speaker 1: a beast. He takes and if he if he were
Speaker 1: to train, for Suretis Drake was missed off that list.
Speaker 1: And Drake plays ball all the time. We see all
Speaker 1: the videos. He's six right ye six? God uh yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how athletic Drake is. Shout
Speaker 1: out to Drake that he came by the gym. He's
Speaker 1: playing some of the runs. Have you played in his gym?
Speaker 1: I know he has a crazy gym at his No,
Speaker 1: we talked about it early on when he first built it. Um,
Speaker 1: but no, I haven't that gyms fired. I saw they
Speaker 1: have a gym that was re created in China to
Speaker 1: imitate your gyms. Is a crazy story. So literally, you know,
Speaker 1: you guys know how the DMS is. You got to
Speaker 1: like that. It's like the ninety nine plus side right.
Speaker 1: And there's this janitor that's like I've been sweeping the
Speaker 1: floor of the Brickley Center. I'm like, what's he talking about?
Speaker 1: So Tom went by and then he kept sending it
Speaker 1: to me and then he sent me a picture and
Speaker 1: it was like exactly how my gym looked. So I'm like, Yo,
Speaker 1: where is this. He's like, it's in China. I'm like, wait,
Speaker 1: So they built an identical gym to my gym in
Speaker 1: New York, identical looks the same. They call it to
Speaker 1: Brickley Center. Didn't tell me, didn't tell my team. Nothing
Speaker 1: we can do about it. I want to go there though.
Speaker 1: That's really dope. How many kids you think you've inspired
Speaker 1: that are now thinking about this as a potential opportunity
Speaker 1: because this is not something that you set out to do.
Speaker 1: I mean millions, It's yeah, it's crazy. It's gone. It's
Speaker 1: just like the two K stuff. It's gone to the
Speaker 1: point where you know, when I walk down the street,
Speaker 1: people ask me for pictures and you know, the airport's crazy.
Speaker 1: It's just it's dope, just to inspire, inspire kids to
Speaker 1: If you can't make the NBA, you can do what
Speaker 1: I do. You can still sign the same deals that
Speaker 1: an NBA player signs. You can take it to you know,
Speaker 1: buy your Dada house, and but you're still teaching the game.
Speaker 1: So that's kind of like mine. That's why I do this.
Speaker 1: You talked earlier about j cole shot, And when you
Speaker 1: look at the NBA, so many people have so many
Speaker 1: different shots, right, someone look disgusting. Something it works for
Speaker 1: someone doesn't work for So how do you know when
Speaker 1: somebody needs to change this shot? Like if you look
Speaker 1: at Steph Curry, right, his shot is not a normal
Speaker 1: jump shot. Right. For years, I thought he was chucking.
Speaker 1: I was like, he's chucking. I was like, there's no
Speaker 1: way he could just do that. But obviously it's a
Speaker 1: shot and it works for him and he's and he's
Speaker 1: perfected it. Yea. So how do you know what a
Speaker 1: shot needs to be changed when it's not going in.
Speaker 1: So when Phil Jackson first got the job with the
Speaker 1: next so he fired the entire staff, I'm lasting line.
Speaker 1: In turn, I'm like, I'm about to get fired. I
Speaker 1: knew I was in a fire. Everyone got fired and
Speaker 1: I walk in there. He asked me three questions. Then
Speaker 1: he's like, so, when you shoot a jump shot, do
Speaker 1: you need to step into it? Can you hop into it?
Speaker 1: Where's the release point you need to be? And I
Speaker 1: was like, none, it doesn't need to be any of that, Like,
Speaker 1: you can hop into it, can step into it, you
Speaker 1: can shoot over your head, it doesn't matter. And he's like,
Speaker 1: you're right. And I ended up getting the job, And um,
Speaker 1: so I said, I have to say, there's not one
Speaker 1: way to shoot. Uh, that's some guys that have terrible
Speaker 1: looking shots that go in. So how's your jump shot? Honestly?
Speaker 1: Is mine is more mechanical? Okay, it doesn't go in.
Speaker 1: It's mechanical. It's it's shot the right way. But it's
Speaker 1: so that's probably a few things that you know, you
Speaker 1: could change, whether it's with your footwork or with your
Speaker 1: fall through, you know. So, yeah, if it's not going in,
Speaker 1: fix it. If it goes in. I don't care what
Speaker 1: it looks like. Keep it the way it is. And
Speaker 1: now what about Ben Simmons? His jump shot? Uh? Does
Speaker 1: it go in? So he needs to fix it? Have
Speaker 1: you worked with him? I haven't. I think I think
Speaker 1: he needs to. Are there people that like if you
Speaker 1: had to say they were somebody that like? Man, if
Speaker 1: I could just get my hands on this person, I
Speaker 1: know I could take them to the next level? Who
Speaker 1: would you say that would be? At this point in
Speaker 1: my career, I've seen every jump shot possible. I feel
Speaker 1: like I could fix anyone's Uh who do I want
Speaker 1: to fix? It's tough too, because then I'm kind of
Speaker 1: throwing that guy you know under the bus that he
Speaker 1: can't shoot. If I'm if I give you a name, well,
Speaker 1: I mean, they're good enough to make it to the NBA,
Speaker 1: but maybe they could have been. They could be a star?
Speaker 1: Who would who? Who do I want to work with? Uh?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't answer that. After after the
Speaker 1: last time selected and I know you have a name
Speaker 1: in your head, big thing. Yeah, So I'm scared. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to keep the I'm trying to keep it.
Speaker 1: What about Lebron I see Lebron. You work out with
Speaker 1: Lebron a couple of times. Yeah, At all the NBA
Speaker 1: players you work I always see Lebron as the one
Speaker 1: that is one of the he's always working, who is
Speaker 1: the most dedicated to the game. That's that's a handful.
Speaker 1: That's you know from from Mellow Donovan, Mitchell so braun
Speaker 1: So the workout is at ten. He showed up in
Speaker 1: nine fifteen, which no one does that, no one. He
Speaker 1: showed up forty five minutes early. He did this whole
Speaker 1: forty five minute routine, then he worked out, then he
Speaker 1: did another forty five minute routine. It's crazy. He's thirty seven.
Speaker 1: He moves like he's twenty seven. And I'm not just
Speaker 1: saying that, it's the truth. He could play six more
Speaker 1: years at the level, like at thirty points a game.
Speaker 1: It's wild. It's truly crazy. Thirty seven. This man is
Speaker 1: like running around dunking on people. So you know, that's
Speaker 1: just amazing to me. But there's so many hard workers
Speaker 1: you have to think to get to that star level.
Speaker 1: For the most part, you need to have a crazy
Speaker 1: work ethic. Have you made some connections and relationships with
Speaker 1: people that may not have previously known each other that well,
Speaker 1: and then after working with you, they're like, now we
Speaker 1: cool with each other all the time for sure. And
Speaker 1: artists and NBA guys like so many NBA guys with
Speaker 1: so many artists. So you know, that's been so many
Speaker 1: times I've done like the Rapper runs in Rapper Roube,
Speaker 1: So who's coming. I'll be like, you know, it's just
Speaker 1: this and they'll be like, ah, I'm gonna mess with
Speaker 1: this guy's crew. I'm like, nah, bro, it's in the gym,
Speaker 1: like come on, come through, and they're playing the run
Speaker 1: and then next thing you know, like they're boys, they'll
Speaker 1: be working together. So that's something I take pride in
Speaker 1: bringing people together. That's kind of what I'm all about.
Speaker 1: And you also do the basketball camps for the kids
Speaker 1: for sure, So that's something I'm doing this this summer.
Speaker 1: I'm doing like fifteen free camps and you know in
Speaker 1: all the Borrows and Queensbridge and Brooklyn and I'm going everywhere,
Speaker 1: and it's like it's wild to see some of these turnouts.
Speaker 1: They do one in Queen's Bridge like a year ago,
Speaker 1: like three hundred people showed up. I really like made
Speaker 1: these kids days and that that's like so special. I'm
Speaker 1: trying to also educate them, like on eating healthy on
Speaker 1: like I was trying to, you know, get the like
Speaker 1: ginger shots and I got I need that. I need that.
Speaker 1: But I feel like just educating the youth, essucially the
Speaker 1: inner city youth on you know, not just learning basketball,
Speaker 1: but learning life, how to eat right, um, how to
Speaker 1: deal with anxiety. Like and I told myself, after all
Speaker 1: these camps, I'm gonna be available to talk about stuff
Speaker 1: like that. I think that's huge. When I was little,
Speaker 1: I would have loved that. So that's kind of what
Speaker 1: I'm trying to Can these kids sign up for these camps?
Speaker 1: Do you just show up? So you know? On my
Speaker 1: Instagram is all the dates. I can't. I don't put
Speaker 1: the times yet because literally if I put the times,
Speaker 1: that'd be so many people the night before I put
Speaker 1: the time, And uh yeah, it's lit. It's it's a
Speaker 1: fun experience, giveaways as the NBA players coming through, as
Speaker 1: me rappers coming through. It's gonna be a vibe and
