And the rules were very clear from the beginning. 203 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: I didn't even need to be explained them. You knew 204 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,239 Speaker 1: the rules. You get out of line with the wrong motherfucker's, 205 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: you might get punched in your face. Right there, not 206 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: beating up, someone just might punch you in your fucking face. 207 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: You get out of line with the wrong motherfucker's, for real, 208 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: you might get shot and killed. Gerald, Please talk about 209 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: what you saw growing up. I saw tough ship man 210 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: like you just had to be. I can't answer that 211 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: question wrap that ship is youre bugging me out. I 212 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 1: can't explain that. But it's because you don't like to 213 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: talk about it because it's too real. I mean, you 214 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: saw things. You would tell me things that you saw, 215 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: and I would be like rock to my core. But 216 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: they were so it was just a part of where 217 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: you where you came from. Yeah, it's part of how 218 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: you know, how some people were living. And then you 219 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: outside and you you see some things and but it's 220 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: just you know, unfortunate. But uh, you know, I've seen it. 221 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: And then you know we're having fun as well. So 222 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: it's unwritten rules about snapping on each other and ship 223 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: like that, and uh, you know, you gotta you take 224 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: it and you give it. And and the reason why 225 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: I'm bringing this up is I ain't no tough guy. 226 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: I talked tough. I've never been a tough guy. Anybody 227 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: that knows me knows that I don't try to be 228 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: a tough guy. I don't claim to be a tough guy. 229 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: A lot of people that are not from New York, 230 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: they hear the the ship, they hear the the funk, 231 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: they hear the cursing, they hear the tone, and they 232 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: go all this guy thinks he's I know, I'm not 233 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: a tough guy. I know I'm not. I've been around 234 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: tough guys. I've been around murderers. And when I say 235 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: I've been around murderers, murders real life, people that have 236 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: actually murdered people killers. But the point that I'm bringing 237 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: up is that, and the reason why I went back 238 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: into this old stuff is that for me, I always 239 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: understood and being exposed to to you know, the hood, 240 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: whatever you wanna call it, and being around the ship 241 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: that I was around, it influenced me. It changed me. 242 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: It helped mold who I am. And I'll tell you 243 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: this when it comes to talking ship and snapping. I 244 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 1: never talk ship and snap on somebody who I like. 245 00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: That's the rules. Guard. You don't talk shit and snap 246 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: people you don't like. It's like a term of endearment. 247 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: To talk ship. That's a sign of infection. To snap 248 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: on somebody, know, you dusty ass motherfucker. Look at your ship, 249 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: your whole grillas ash you Why the fund is your 250 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: whole grill ass?

These are the people 258 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: that would be fascinated and confused and really have to 259 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: wrap their head around why there's so many black people 260 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: come up to you and recognize you.

But they always 355 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: so is he better than Mike? Is he not better 356 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: than Mike?

He's 359 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: completely a hundred better than Michael Jordan's okay, And obviously, um, 360 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: it comes with the times, you know, because because this 361 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: woman essentially said she did say shut up and dribble, 362 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: and and Michael Jordan, as great as he is, and 363 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: I think he's you know, finding his voice, and Charles 364 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: Barkley and all these other guys, they came up in 365 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 1: a different time when shut up and dribble was was 366 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: close to you know, you had to shut up and dribble. 367 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 1: So anyway, back to this this Nazi salutor, Laura Ingram, 368 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: uh huh. She said at the end of her whole thing, 369 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: and she's mocking them, and she's like doing all this 370 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: and blah blah blah blah blah, she said, um, shut 371 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: up in dribble, right. She she didn't say anything when J. J. Watt, 372 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: who who gallantly and brilliantly and I'm not I'm not comparing, 373 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: but nobody complained when J. J. Watt was raising money 374 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: for hurricane relief. Yeah, I gotta I'm gonna play Devil's 375 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: that having, kidd But you know, you have. You can't 376 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: raise hell for that, you know what I'm saying that 377 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: that's a positive thing. But she, in her you know, 378 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: in her defense kind of, she wrote a book telling, uh, 379 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: actors and people who are not well versed into politics 380 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 1: to you know, not not speak about politics if you 381 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: really don't understand it. So she wrote a book about that, 382 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: and I think that's what she was trying to day. 383 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: But it came out wrong, of course, and of course 384 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: everybody took it as racist. But she wrote a book telling, 385 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: you know, celebrities and stuff, yo, you do you really 386 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: don't know what the funk you're talking about, basically, so 387 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: you shouldn't delve into politics on the world stage like that. 388 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: But that that monologue when people are on the news 389 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 1: talking and people are like, whether it's Scott van Pelt 390 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: or what's my man's name on Channel four? That funny 391 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: looking dude, Oh, let's the hall, like when people sometimes 392 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 1: people don't know if you're on ESPN or Fox News 393 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: or CNN, whatever you're into. They're reading from a prompter 394 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: that most of the time they wrote. So her little 395 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: speech was her words. She wasn't going off the cuff, 396 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: how like we're going off the cuff here at the 397 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: Iron Rapports stereo podcast, and and for her to mock 398 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: Lebron James for not going to college and he didn't 399 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: finish high school. It's clearly so blatantly racist, so blatantly racist. 400 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: And she's she's like, you know, basically she's saying, stay 401 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: in stay in your fucking place, that's what saying. I 402 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: was offended by it. I immediately picked up on, like 403 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: the way she was talking and the sarcasm that she 404 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: was using and the disrespect that she was using towards 405 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: Kevin Durant, Lebron James and everybody. Okay, so two or 406 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: three days went by, and you know, we were all 407 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,479 Speaker 1: we were doing all Star festivities. Um, we were doing this, 408 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: that and the other. And I finally was like, I 409 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: knew I wanted to say something. And when I say 410 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 1: say something rant or you know, when I say rant, 411 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: I mean like get on my Instagram and talk some ship. 412 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: But I also knew that because it's a woman, I 413 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: have to be careful. You know, you can't just insult women, 414 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: uh without um people being offended. So so so I 415 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: really thought about what I was gonna say in regards 416 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: to uh, this woman.

Because if 814 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 1: it's more than in my opinion, in the United States, 815 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:58,080 Speaker 1: if you're five minutes away from a Starbucks, in my opinion, 816 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:00,800 Speaker 1: you're in the fucking boondocks because in a city person 817 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 1: like literally from where we are right now, if you 818 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 1: walk in any direction, you're gonna run into a Starbucks. Yeah, 819 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,200 Speaker 1: we got we got about ten minutes of Starbucks probably. Okay, 820 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 1: ten minutes makes me a little uncomfortable, but I can 821 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: live ten minutes away, all right, So go ahead? Yeah, 822 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,560 Speaker 1: so um yeah literally two thousand two, I was a 823 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 1: fan of the season one. Two thousand three rolls around. 824 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 1: After my freshman year in college, I walked on to 825 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,920 Speaker 1: a local juco. I was tiny. I had a lot 826 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: of offensive skills, but my coaches never believed me because 827 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 1: of my size and defensively. You're not that small like 828 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: I thought you were based on the way you look 829 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:38,280 Speaker 1: on TV and on videos, like, but you're not small, 830 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 1: you know, like five five five, You're not Nate Robinson. 831 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 1: No disrespecting Nate Robinson, but I'm just saying you're not 832 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 1: like totally undersized for a like a college basketball player, 833 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: totally totally. I think it was the fact that I 834 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: was so lightweight, you know what I mean, And it's like, 835 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 1: you know, a short white guy doesn't look athletic. So 836 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: it was hard for me. Like I was a junior 837 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,279 Speaker 1: on JV, I answered to a Christian school my senior 838 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: year just so I can get a better opportunity for basketball. 839 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: No college offers, even though I got second team All 840 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 1: State because it was a small league, walked onto the 841 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 1: local juco, played five minutes a game. If it was close, 842 00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:13,840 Speaker 1: they didn't even get in. Were there any like players 843 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: that were good on that team, like legitimately good or 844 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 1: did you feel like you were not getting like in 845 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,320 Speaker 1: hind not no disrespect, but like in hindsight, are you 846 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: like I should have been playing more? I would actually 847 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 1: say no. So we had a lot of Division one, 848 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,720 Speaker 1: Division two, you know, prospect guys, and they were very 849 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 1: you know, good players. But I kind of like shied 850 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 1: away from contact on defense, you know what I mean. 851 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 1: I wasn't a pest on defense, nor was that physical 852 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: in any type of way, So people were scared of 853 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 1: the defense. You didn't play any d didn't play no day. No. 854 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,279 Speaker 1: I mean I'd get like occasional steel, you know, a 855 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 1: little reach here and there, but not like you play 856 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:51,080 Speaker 1: a Lonzo bald Alright, So okay, so go ahead. Yeah. 857 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 1: So after my uh freshman year that that spring, I 858 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: improved like three hundred always help people improved three And 859 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 1: I was tell us the kids all time, you can 860 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 1: improve a lot in a short amount of time if 861 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:06,160 Speaker 1: you're working on your weaknesses and practicing the right way. 862 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 1: So I was doing two days, I was in the 863 00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: weight room. I was working out with those guys who 864 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: were going Division two, Division one. By the end of 865 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 1: the spring summer, I was as like one of the best, 866 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 1: if not the best player in the gym. So so 867 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 1: then the and one tour, having to roll around, I 868 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 1: decided to go try out, not even knowing they were 869 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: doing that nationwide contest. I had played the year before. 870 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 1: I tried out and played against a couple of the guys, 871 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 1: so I'm like, hey, even if I don't you know, 872 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,040 Speaker 1: making it during the trial process, I'd be cool just 873 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,359 Speaker 1: sitting back watch hot sauce ao Alim and he's gotta 874 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: do their thing. But tried out, made the and One 875 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 1: game and then um because it was sort of like 876 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 1: a reality show, like you play in the parking lot 877 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,279 Speaker 1: and they'll pick one or two. Were no players to 878 00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 1: play with the guys. Yeah, so it's a Survivor themed 879 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: reality Remember reality TV was blowing up in the early 880 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:54,959 Speaker 1: two thousands, so they actually kind of themed it off 881 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: kind of like Survivor where it was a narrowing down process. 882 00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,879 Speaker 1: You stay on, you can get voted to go home. 883 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 1: Every few games was elimination game. So basically I went 884 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,919 Speaker 1: yeah to the Rose Garden. We played and one game, 885 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,720 Speaker 1: and I got the crowd to stand up a few times, 886 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 1: scored when it gets hot, sauce a little bit, and 887 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:13,799 Speaker 1: then next thing I know, after the game, they're like, hey, 888 00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:15,840 Speaker 1: so you're coming on tour with us. You made it, 889 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: Like are you good with that? And I'm like, like, 890 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:19,799 Speaker 1: I loved and one. So I was like, let's go. 891 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 1: So next thing I know, I go throughout the process 892 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 1: of the summer and the last game, which you were 893 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 1: talking to, one of the last games that Madison Square 894 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 1: Garden and I had went through the whole duration of 895 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 1: the summer and we beat and one that game. We 896 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 1: had a game in Philly and then we did a 897 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: game in the hood, like in Lennon, New Jersey, where 898 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,480 Speaker 1: main event grew up playing, and then they picked me 899 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,400 Speaker 1: to win the contract and I was just elated. That 900 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,560 Speaker 1: was the greatest. So you go on the tour and 901 00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,319 Speaker 1: you guys are playing against the end One guys, yes, 902 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 1: and you're you guys are all guys that were picked 903 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,840 Speaker 1: up throughout like from other cities. It was actually it 904 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: was it was a combination with you guys, So like 905 00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 1: five or six of them were guys who played overseas, 906 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 1: like either Division one or Division two overseas, and then 907 00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:09,920 Speaker 1: the other half was guys who tried out in the 908 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 1: parking lot. So it's sort of a combination because they 909 00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: didn't want to put like scrubs out of so the 910 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: and One who are a lot of people don't know. 911 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 1: Some people think it was like the Glow Chargers. It 912 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 1: was like squads, like I was playing next to dudes. 913 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 1: It played Division one Pro overseas night and night out. 914 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 1: But that original and One team was really talented how 915 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 1: competitive for those games. By the time you guys got 916 00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 1: to the garden. That was sort of like the was 917 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 1: that the apex of N one on is like like 918 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: was that the as big as it got. I think, yeah, 919 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 1: it was one of the big moment. Thousand three to 920 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 1: two thousand five was the biggest, the biggest time period. 921 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,759 Speaker 1: So those games like the gaming when you're going against 922 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 1: like the original and one dude and they're competitive, they 923 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 1: talk ship, they all have reputations. You guys are lesser 924 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 1: known and and who are who are some of the 925 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 1: guys on that team of regular it was It was 926 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,359 Speaker 1: Hot Sauce. Yeah, Housa was one of the biggest name 927 00:55:56,440 --> 00:56:00,879 Speaker 1: guys AO from Philly. There was who else was down 928 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: at that time. It was half Man Half Amazing, main 929 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:11,719 Speaker 1: Event Shane and dribbling Machine, um, who else something alim Escalade, 930 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: So it was a squad. What a lot of people 931 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 1: didn't know is even though the guys were flashing the 932 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 1: entertainer game, like all those guys could have played at 933 00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: least Division two overseas Division one, and a few guys 934 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 1: were just short of the NBA just because like maybe 935 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 1: position wise they didn't fit, you know, fit in, or 936 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,760 Speaker 1: maybe they couldn't really be coached black discipline in certain areas. 937 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,719 Speaker 1: So it was competitive, like there was no nothing was 938 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 1: ever staged like that, you know, a lot of people 939 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,839 Speaker 1: think street ball sometimes stage or something. What moment. I mean, 940 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:42,279 Speaker 1: there's got to be a bunch of but like your 941 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 1: earliest moment when you're out there playing against these dudes. 942 00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:48,239 Speaker 1: These dudes talk shit. They're doing the fucking throw the 943 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,480 Speaker 1: ball off the face ship, which wasn't invented when I 944 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:53,120 Speaker 1: played in the park. When I grew up, that wouldn't 945 00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:55,320 Speaker 1: happen like that started happening. I was about nineteen, like 946 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 1: I remember seeing this. I was like, that's fighting ship. 947 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 1: Mid nineties. You don't throw a ball of anybody's face. 948 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 1: I don't give a funk how Like it's funked up, 949 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:07,439 Speaker 1: Like no, I mean it's fun, it hurts, it's embarrassing, 950 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: like it's daunting, like I've never had a ball throw 951 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,360 Speaker 1: like you guys started doing this crazy shit. Here's what 952 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:15,839 Speaker 1: happened when I first saw it, like in ninety five 953 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 1: or ninety six, I actually saw Steve France was the 954 00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 1: first player ever seen do it. But here's how it 955 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 1: started off. It started off where when the if the 956 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 1: guy guarded you and he was only like a foot 957 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:25,919 Speaker 1: away from you, you would you would do a mood 958 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,919 Speaker 1: to sort of distract me, and you like lightly tap 959 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 1: it off the forehead. Somehow it evolved where the crowd 960 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 1: liked it a lot to where it got to a 961 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 1: point where people were like going from form me to 962 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: you right now about six feet boom, which that's disrespectful. 963 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 1: You know. I tried. I tried to take to that level, 964 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,600 Speaker 1: but a couple of times I've you know, got a 965 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: little too far with that. Maybe what So, what was 966 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 1: one of your first moments do you remember? You like, yo, 967 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 1: I'm out here, I'm doing it, Like like what would 968 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: be like the player moment that you remember that was 969 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: on the games that even though I could reference in 970 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 1: what you're saying here, Oh, it had to be halfway through. 971 00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 1: So we went on a little intermission. I think I 972 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 1: think the tour is thirty three game games, so we're 973 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:02,880 Speaker 1: about fifteen sixteen games and we went home for like 974 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 1: a little intermission, and I remember I thought of like 975 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 1: a couple of new moves. We came back and I 976 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: think our first game back was in Detroit and I 977 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 1: had like this battle with Hot Sauce. But here's how 978 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 1: it went. It was maybe like the second quarter or something. 979 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,600 Speaker 1: He came down did some crossover move because he was 980 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 1: really quick he was really fast. He did some crossover 981 00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 1: move and like heavy me and I slipped almost did 982 00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 1: the splits and I gathered myself one hand. I tried 983 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 1: to get up as quick as I could get a 984 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 1: piece of it, just barely missed it, and he hit 985 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 1: a three. Everybody wanted to day here run on the court, 986 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:41,080 Speaker 1: so they stood up went crazy. Me At that time, 987 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm thinking like how do I top that? Like you 988 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: know what I mean, I've never even been to Detroit 989 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 1: much less, and the crowd is you're a white dude 990 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 1: out here. It's a rowdy, yes, unknown white dude. You 991 00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:53,840 Speaker 1: had to hear like you played the role to a t. 992 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: This is being myself, you know. So next thing I know, 993 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 1: my coach is just of this guy's guy, Mike Ellis. 994 00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:03,120 Speaker 1: He was screaming. He's all roundy. He was like go 995 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 1: back at him, like what you doing? I was like, okay. 996 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,080 Speaker 1: So I came down a little bit nervous, not known 997 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:09,919 Speaker 1: to do, and for some reason I just went into 998 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 1: the zone. I did like every move I could possibly 999 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 1: think of on houseauce and then ended it with like 1000 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 1: a pull bag like I went for a couple of steps, 1001 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 1: pulled it back and he got he actually went for it, 1002 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 1: he got Cross of Faith. And then I drove And 1003 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:23,720 Speaker 1: it's a funny thing is I don't even remember how 1004 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: the ball went in and I drove and hit like 1005 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:29,000 Speaker 1: some long like float or something. But then the up 1006 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 1: the crowd eruption was like twice as big as it 1007 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 1: was the first time. And I think after that game, 1008 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 1: I remember thinking myself, like, this could be a staple, 1009 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 1: this could be something I do. And what has been 1010 00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 1: the sort of like the biggest crowd with and one 1011 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 1: because I want to talk to you about international like 1012 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:47,360 Speaker 1: what was sort of like like the craziest sort of place. 1013 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:50,040 Speaker 1: Oh man, um. The first time we went to Asia 1014 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,640 Speaker 1: was insane. We went to Japan, so we sold out 1015 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: a twelve thousand seed arena several times in the same city. 1016 00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:00,040 Speaker 1: That was nuts, um actually, and what was like, what 1017 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:03,440 Speaker 1: is playing bowl over there? Like? Oh um? It was 1018 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 1: funny because they were so excited, Like they get so 1019 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 1: excited because they know you're not gonna come back every year, 1020 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. They look at it like, hey, 1021 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 1: this could be a once in a lifetime things in Japan, 1022 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: right or or if we're in Paris or South America. 1023 01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 1: So they get much more excited over things like I'll 1024 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,320 Speaker 1: come down, I won't even get into my main move. 1025 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:22,400 Speaker 1: I'll just do like some sort of promotion and they'll 1026 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:25,640 Speaker 1: lose their mind off that. So I remember the first 1027 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 1: time we actually went overseas period. We were in Paris 1028 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 1: and that game was nuts. That was some of the 1029 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 1: most nuts energy I've ever been a part of. We 1030 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,880 Speaker 1: went to South Paulo, Brazil's first time in South America. 1031 01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,160 Speaker 1: We did twenty an arena and sold out twenty five 1032 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:40,840 Speaker 1: thousand on Wednesday, and it was so crazy that they 1033 01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 1: were like, hey, do you guys want to stay and 1034 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 1: do another game on Sunday, Like we'll pay extra fee, 1035 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 1: you guys want to stay and we were all like, oh, 1036 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,320 Speaker 1: for sure. Because we were in Brazil. It was nuts. 1037 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 1: The energy there.

We had way too 1068 01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 1: much fun oftentimes oftentimes, so yeah, losing our mind you 1069 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: could define it as that a few times. It was definitely, 1070 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:36,439 Speaker 1: it was some great times. Definitely some wild times for sure. 1071 01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 1: And why did the show on ESPN end? Like, like 1072 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 1: why did it come to an end? It's a good question. 1073 01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 1: So basically what happened is in two thousands, it was 1074 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,840 Speaker 1: like right after we were on a cover Sports Illustrator 1075 01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 1: and one mixtape is on all time high. We get 1076 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 1: the news last as the players did. The company had 1077 01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:56,360 Speaker 1: been bought out by different owners, and so the original 1078 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:59,240 Speaker 1: four guys that started it sold it for for a 1079 01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 1: hefty fee. He paid a you know what I mean, 1080 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 1: And now it was in the hands of some people 1081 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:05,480 Speaker 1: that really didn't know much about basketball at all. They 1082 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:09,720 Speaker 1: were actually based out here, and um they did the 1083 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 1: tour for a couple more years just because they had 1084 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 1: a contract. From my understanding, they had a contract with 1085 01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: the production company. So it was on ESPN just for 1086 01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 1: uh oh six or seven oh wait to to do 1087 01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 1: out that contract. Maybe it was the contract of ESPN production. 1088 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:25,040 Speaker 1: It was. It was hard for us to gather on 1089 01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 1: the info. But basically that's why. And then two thousand 1090 01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,680 Speaker 1: nine came and they were like, hey, we're gonna We're 1091 01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 1: gonna brand NBA because they didn't even know the people 1092 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,080 Speaker 1: at that time that the brand was built off street ball, 1093 01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And that's why it came 1094 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:39,480 Speaker 1: to Forefront. But I didn't blame the owners because at 1095 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 1: the end of the day the owners started, they're passing 1096 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:44,280 Speaker 1: out trash talk teachers out the back of their car 1097 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 1: in New York. So for them to bring it to 1098 01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 1: where it was that it was a perfect time to 1099 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 1: cash out. And I didn't blame them, but at the 1100 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 1: tiles bummed out, I was like, whoa, So now it's 1101 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:57,560 Speaker 1: a much less marketing dollars, smaller tours, you know, and 1102 01:03:57,600 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 1: it just sort of fizzles, It fizzles away. Yeah, But 1103 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:02,440 Speaker 1: what was cool is that the market never turned it away, 1104 01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 1: and one turned away, so there was always a market 1105 01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:07,439 Speaker 1: for stuff when it started going uh the digital route, 1106 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So as far as like 1107 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,640 Speaker 1: being recognized, like you start to have this credibility, this 1108 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 1: street cred whatever the funk you want to call it. Like, 1109 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:17,640 Speaker 1: do you remember the first time you got recognized in 1110 01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 1: public as being the professor? I think so, yeah, yeah, 1111 01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 1: I think it was somewhere some like country city in 1112 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,880 Speaker 1: the South, I can't remember. And then somebody asked me 1113 01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:28,760 Speaker 1: for my autograph and I was like, oh sure, you know, 1114 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 1: I didn't even know how to act. I didn't even 1115 01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:31,800 Speaker 1: know how to write. Every think I wrote my name 1116 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:36,040 Speaker 1: in print? You know, did you write the professor or 1117 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 1: did you write wrote Grace and Bouche in print? Not 1118 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,920 Speaker 1: even cursive? And then uh, that might be in the 1119 01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,080 Speaker 1: Nate Smith Basketball of Fame at this you know, like 1120 01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 1: at this point, shout out to anybody who's got that 1121 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 1: that first professor. And then I remember, I remember the 1122 01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:56,080 Speaker 1: PR guy at the time or the player relation guy 1123 01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:57,959 Speaker 1: from Man at the time. He was like, hey man, 1124 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 1: this is beginning something special, like you have no idea 1125 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,480 Speaker 1: dea And I remember looking at him like oh yeah, 1126 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:04,919 Speaker 1: like oh cool, Like I didn't know what he meant. 1127 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:09,439 Speaker 1: But uh yeah. So now as far as street ball, 1128 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,440 Speaker 1: like you know, you said the games weren't scripted, it 1129 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,440 Speaker 1: wasn't Harlem Global. What's the rule because, in my opinion, 1130 01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:19,200 Speaker 1: street ball and I hate again I hate that term 1131 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 1: because I think it's just it's like it's basketball. But 1132 01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,600 Speaker 1: we'll refer to it against my will here. In my opinion, 1133 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 1: it's affected some of the stuff that we see in 1134 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 1: the actual EMBA. But what are the rules about, like 1135 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 1: your guarding hot sauce? Uh, he crosses your he gets you. 1136 01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 1: What are the defensive rules? Like? In my opinion, I 1137 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 1: feel like, if you're playing good defense, if you're playing 1138 01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 1: legit basketball, you're gonna get dunked on. You're gonna get 1139 01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:43,840 Speaker 1: crossed up. It's sort of it's part of the game. 1140 01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 1: I don't give a funk who you are, Like, what 1141 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 1: are the rules when you guys are playing? Do you 1142 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 1: have you have to d up and whatever happens happens. Correct, Yeah, 1143 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 1: you have to do. The only thing was we couldn't 1144 01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:55,959 Speaker 1: have any his own defense, right, because then you can't 1145 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 1: do your thing. Yeah, I was like, no his own 1146 01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:02,800 Speaker 1: defense and uh, to be honest, the only other different 1147 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 1: from basketball it was no its own defense. And then 1148 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,440 Speaker 1: it was like, but I'm saying that the nonspoken rules 1149 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,520 Speaker 1: like because if you don't play defense, like in these games, 1150 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:13,040 Speaker 1: if you don't play defense, the other guy can't do 1151 01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:14,720 Speaker 1: his things. So you sort of like sort of like 1152 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:16,840 Speaker 1: a respect that I'm gonna d you up. Whatever the 1153 01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 1: fun is gonna happen, it's gonna happen. Yeah, I mean 1154 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:21,480 Speaker 1: sometimes you could sag off if you want it. You 1155 01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 1: didn't feel like the guy was a shooter, but a 1156 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:24,760 Speaker 1: lot of guys, see, a lot of guys on the 1157 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 1: team actually did have these other skills that didn't get 1158 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 1: highlighted as month. So it's like you couldn't just leave 1159 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 1: somebody own and hit the three. You had to get 1160 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:32,760 Speaker 1: out there, you know what I mean. So the unspoken 1161 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:36,120 Speaker 1: rule was like basically a lot of iOS, we're looking 1162 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:38,040 Speaker 1: to push the ball and throw oops, so you don't 1163 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:40,840 Speaker 1: want to take anybody out the air. But for the 1164 01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 1: most part, it was basketball rules. Oh. In the early 1165 01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:46,520 Speaker 1: two thousands, though, the carrying so like like the carry 1166 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:49,360 Speaker 1: moves the houseauce and then would do the crowd. At 1167 01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 1: the at the time, I think basketball's little stay like 1168 01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 1: after Michael Jordan's you know, Alan Iverson was sort of 1169 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:56,640 Speaker 1: the face of the NBA at that time, but they 1170 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:59,240 Speaker 1: wanted something new, so that was hot, and and they 1171 01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:02,200 Speaker 1: allowed for carrying right at that time, so so that 1172 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,680 Speaker 1: would I think that would be an abnormality, but most 1173 01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:06,840 Speaker 1: of the guys didn't. Really. It was like House and 1174 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:08,520 Speaker 1: a couple of other guys. I remember I early in 1175 01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 1: my career, I did a couple of those silly moves 1176 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:13,080 Speaker 1: because that's what was going. You know, people like that. 1177 01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, then that's just basketball. You know. Out of 1178 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 1: all those guys, who do you think we're like the best? 1179 01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 1: Like who were you just most impressed with? Like just 1180 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 1: talent wise, We're like, yo, this guy is really good 1181 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,120 Speaker 1: because you you're playing with these guys, uh in front 1182 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,080 Speaker 1: of crowns, not in front of crowds, you're playing pick up. 1183 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 1: I mean it's NonStop. Who were out of those and 1184 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:32,280 Speaker 1: one guys did you think was like this guy is 1185 01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 1: really good? I mean it's me looking at it at 1186 01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 1: that time, like all of them to me, to me 1187 01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:38,880 Speaker 1: were very good. But if I would to pick the 1188 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:41,360 Speaker 1: cream of the crop. Probably skipped to my Luke Rapher 1189 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 1: Austin who started it and one mixed a volume one. 1190 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 1: You know, he was fifteen sixteen years old playing the 1191 01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:49,360 Speaker 1: Rutger doing those playing that style. So that's that's what 1192 01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,439 Speaker 1: kind of like birth, the angual mixtape tour he made 1193 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: the NBA played for ten twelve years, so so obviously 1194 01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 1: Skip was probably the best. I would say, did you 1195 01:07:57,680 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 1: ever play against him? I did a couple of times. Yeah, 1196 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:03,400 Speaker 1: a couple of times I did, and I was outmatched, 1197 01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:04,920 Speaker 1: but it was good. I learned a lot from it. 1198 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 1: And then Ao and Alimo were two really good players. 1199 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 1: Alimo could have been in the NBA, I think had 1200 01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:14,440 Speaker 1: he of tried to give somewhat of an effort to 1201 01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:17,200 Speaker 1: go to college recipes. He actually passed away a few 1202 01:08:17,280 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 1: years ago. And then um Ao could have been in 1203 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,679 Speaker 1: the NBA. Ao and like never even like lifting any 1204 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:26,559 Speaker 1: weights or or really wanted to be I don't even 1205 01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 1: know if he wanted to be coached. Like he loved 1206 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,160 Speaker 1: street ball, he was perfect for it, But did he 1207 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:33,200 Speaker 1: have NBA talent? Like for sure? And you know, we 1208 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,639 Speaker 1: see you playing in these games, see you play online 1209 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:39,559 Speaker 1: global Hooper is your your tag? I mean you're playing 1210 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 1: ball every fucking day. I mean obviously you missed shots, 1211 01:08:42,960 --> 01:08:45,240 Speaker 1: but like I watched him, like, yo, this guy could play. 1212 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:46,840 Speaker 1: When I watch you in the N one games I'm 1213 01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:48,360 Speaker 1: like this guy could play. You get the ball in 1214 01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 1: the basket. You obviously can handle the ball. You passed 1215 01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:54,920 Speaker 1: the ball. You know, how good do you think you got? 1216 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 1: And you know now you're how old you thirty three? 1217 01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:01,559 Speaker 1: Look twenty three? That's great praise? Um, so thirty three 1218 01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:04,680 Speaker 1: look twenty three? Like you know, how good do you 1219 01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:07,439 Speaker 1: think you you are? And and you got like throughout 1220 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:09,639 Speaker 1: the years like playing because you put so much work 1221 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:15,000 Speaker 1: into it. Um I mean enough to like to entertain 1222 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:16,880 Speaker 1: and do work wherever I go. So if I go 1223 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:20,800 Speaker 1: to Brazil or Africa or New York, I want to 1224 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 1: stand out and put on a show. You know. That's 1225 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:24,880 Speaker 1: that's kind of what I say, because I'm I was 1226 01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 1: never a fan of like the street ballers, like I 1227 01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 1: should be in the league. You do this and then 1228 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:29,560 Speaker 1: and it's like, well why aren't you you know what 1229 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 1: I mean? So, and I never even aimed for that 1230 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 1: post two thousand and six. I was in the CBA, 1231 01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 1: the old school CBA. You playing in the CBA did 1232 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 1: the last year and okay, so go ahead, finished. I 1233 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:41,559 Speaker 1: want to get Yeah, so I got good? I mean, 1234 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 1: I mean, as you look talking about my skill level, 1235 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 1: like I got to a point where I could play 1236 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 1: the c b A. For me to make the NBA, 1237 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,000 Speaker 1: I was gonna to take this like long route, So 1238 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:50,800 Speaker 1: I didn't do that. But I work out with the 1239 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:53,600 Speaker 1: NBA players in the off season. I do find you know, 1240 01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 1: I'm not saying like, if I was in the league, 1241 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,040 Speaker 1: would be putting in major work, but at the point 1242 01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:00,240 Speaker 1: I hold my owning as the NBA player. So what 1243 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,320 Speaker 1: NBA players Like, were you in the CBA gored and 1244 01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:04,439 Speaker 1: like if you worked out with like like, I'm I'm 1245 01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,640 Speaker 1: infatuated by that. And the reason why I'm infatuated by that. 1246 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:10,519 Speaker 1: And I'm so fascinated by this because I grew up 1247 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:13,719 Speaker 1: wanted to be a basketball player. Now I never even 1248 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 1: got close. But for you to have this sort of 1249 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 1: crazy alternative thing and it's via street ball, and then 1250 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,479 Speaker 1: you're like in the c b A and you're working 1251 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:27,040 Speaker 1: out with pros and they all the pros have seen you, 1252 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, on and one at some point all the 1253 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 1: college players have seen you. How crazy did that get 1254 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:33,840 Speaker 1: to you? Like where you're like, holy sh like who 1255 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 1: were some of the players you worked out with that 1256 01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 1: you played against, that that that I know of? Oh? Yes, nuts, 1257 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 1: I mean, Muccie Norris was in the c b A 1258 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 1: at that time. Gosh, there were so many NBA guys. 1259 01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think who else was in the league. 1260 01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:49,639 Speaker 1: Do you remember Big Strick the street ball that Jay 1261 01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 1: Z wraps about. This Big Strick was in the c 1262 01:10:51,479 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 1: b A. Kenny Anderson was actually my coach, and I 1263 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 1: grew up with Kenny. Did you really want I played 1264 01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 1: basketball with Kenny throughout all my teams. This is one 1265 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 1: of the first Kenny Anderson probably was one of the 1266 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:07,200 Speaker 1: first reasons I kind of knew, although I denied it 1267 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:09,320 Speaker 1: for years, that I wasn't making it to the NBA. 1268 01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 1: We played one on one. I was twelve, Kenny was eleven, 1269 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:15,599 Speaker 1: and Kenny Anderson was as good as he was at 1270 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,479 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech when he was at eleven. I swear to 1271 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 1: fucking God, I believe it. The game came in left 1272 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,439 Speaker 1: he was like, dud, he's sucking around me. I'm I'm 1273 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 1: bigger than him, I'm stronger than him. I probably, you know, 1274 01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:29,240 Speaker 1: was skill wise could do. He's fucking around with me. 1275 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:32,200 Speaker 1: He's doing like and one, this is two. His handle 1276 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:34,600 Speaker 1: was nuts nuts. But you know what's funny is I 1277 01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:37,959 Speaker 1: even felt like when he coached us, like he understood 1278 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:39,840 Speaker 1: how easy the game came to him, because sometimes he 1279 01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 1: would get piste off of us and want us to 1280 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:44,680 Speaker 1: do like complex stuff that came easy to him. And 1281 01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:47,120 Speaker 1: in my mind, I'm thinking, like, well, we're not all 1282 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 1: Hall of famers, you know what I mean? Like, but anyway, 1283 01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:53,880 Speaker 1: still was talented, but yeah, crazy talent. I got a 1284 01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 1: lot of respect for his game. Um, so what do 1285 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,240 Speaker 1: you do now, like with the international games, like in 1286 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 1: these these tours and all that stuff, and how did 1287 01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:04,920 Speaker 1: you wind up playing with Allen Iverson right now? Well? Yeah, 1288 01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:06,759 Speaker 1: so I ended up. I didn't playing with Allen Iverson, 1289 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,240 Speaker 1: uh with I was actually contracted ball Up Tour. So 1290 01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:12,160 Speaker 1: ball Up was like post and one that kind of 1291 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,320 Speaker 1: tried to do what all One did, didn't quite go 1292 01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,400 Speaker 1: the same, came to an end. But along that route 1293 01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 1: we did a lot of cool international tours and one 1294 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 1: of them was this. It was actually the Allen Iverson 1295 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 1: Tour just for three games in China. So, um, we 1296 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:28,479 Speaker 1: were the players and I really was featuring Ai like myself, 1297 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:31,360 Speaker 1: and Bone Collector was somewhere on the flyer underneath, and 1298 01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 1: um we played three games with him over there. I 1299 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 1: happen to be on his team all three games a 1300 01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 1: blast man, it was. That was big for me because 1301 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,280 Speaker 1: he was the first player in the NBA that actually 1302 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 1: tried to emulate my game after like in sixth grade? 1303 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 1: Did you you emulated his game? Yeah? Because I was 1304 01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:46,160 Speaker 1: a big Jordan family. You know, I couldn't reflect Jordan. 1305 01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:48,280 Speaker 1: I was like four to you know what I mean. 1306 01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:52,240 Speaker 1: So the first move that actually mastered and that people 1307 01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 1: were like labeled me as a kid handles I like 1308 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:56,880 Speaker 1: the quickest AI cross and that was a sixth grade 1309 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:59,200 Speaker 1: So to get to play with him on a tour 1310 01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:01,360 Speaker 1: in front of thousand was awesome. Now, if you go 1311 01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:04,840 Speaker 1: to a park, are you able to like not be recognized? 1312 01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 1: Because if you play ball in a pick up there's 1313 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:11,720 Speaker 1: usually somebody that knows something about something like are you 1314 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 1: able to go like sort of just play and just ball? No, 1315 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 1: everybody you you get recognized by at least one person 1316 01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:20,800 Speaker 1: in the gym or one person in the park. And 1317 01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:23,600 Speaker 1: when that happens, what like they're like go crazy? Or 1318 01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:25,920 Speaker 1: can you play? Like how do you sort of mean 1319 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,439 Speaker 1: because you love basketball, how do you sort of maintain 1320 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:32,840 Speaker 1: like just being able to play basketball? Uh? Bring security guard. 1321 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:37,559 Speaker 1: Yeah now like the last few years. Yeah, so sometimes 1322 01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,120 Speaker 1: the crowds taking different. You know, if you go to 1323 01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:43,120 Speaker 1: like a place where it's primarily you know, amateurs just 1324 01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:46,040 Speaker 1: gonna play pick up, they'll be a little more friendly 1325 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,280 Speaker 1: to it. You know. It's always like the bigger the egos, 1326 01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:49,720 Speaker 1: the better players, you know what I mean. So the 1327 01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 1: better players a little more abrasive, less impressed, you know 1328 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:56,040 Speaker 1: what I mean. Guys are trying to flex and then 1329 01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,400 Speaker 1: sometimes with somebody rowdy who wants to play and get 1330 01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 1: all physical or whatever. So I found that was best. 1331 01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:04,240 Speaker 1: But um but yah know it's been great. I mean 1332 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 1: most people show a lot of love the hall and 1333 01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:07,920 Speaker 1: the next thing that would be a crowd. So we 1334 01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:10,760 Speaker 1: have a great time. Like I bring these guys a 1335 01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 1: video crew and a security or and then a couple 1336 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:16,000 Speaker 1: other players plays fun. Have motherfucker's wanted to fight you 1337 01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:20,320 Speaker 1: four times? What's the move? Is it just general like 1338 01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 1: making them look bad or I'd imagine throwing the bowl 1339 01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:25,400 Speaker 1: off the face is probably like if somebody wants to fight, 1340 01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:27,559 Speaker 1: that's not the best thing to do, right, To be honest, 1341 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:29,599 Speaker 1: I don't do that move as much anymore. I'll do 1342 01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:31,439 Speaker 1: that move in an exhibitions, there's like a big crowd 1343 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:33,960 Speaker 1: because it's it's really a crowd pleasing movies. There's like 1344 01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:35,519 Speaker 1: a few guys in Jim weren't pick up like I 1345 01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:38,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't do that, um, Like I would be afraid like 1346 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 1: to play with you because I was like, at first 1347 01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:42,120 Speaker 1: of all, I think my nose could get broken, because 1348 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 1: I have a protruding nose, as you can tell. But 1349 01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:47,240 Speaker 1: I'm like, that's the last thing I'd ever want someone 1350 01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,360 Speaker 1: to do is throw a fucking throw a fucking basketball 1351 01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 1: off my face up game. This is supposed to be 1352 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,280 Speaker 1: all the forehead where it's like paint, but who knows, 1353 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,160 Speaker 1: never break somebody's fucking nose. A lot of variables, so 1354 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:01,519 Speaker 1: I stay away from that else. But most of the time, 1355 01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:04,360 Speaker 1: most of the time, it's like already going in said 1356 01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:05,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people in the elite bball world like 1357 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:08,240 Speaker 1: don't like that I played for a living and got 1358 01:15:08,240 --> 01:15:10,360 Speaker 1: a lot of views on social media. So it's like 1359 01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:13,000 Speaker 1: somebody will just be personal off top and they'll play 1360 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:14,680 Speaker 1: like their career game when I was just trying to 1361 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 1: get it running. So it'll be like there'll always be 1362 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:20,160 Speaker 1: like a couple of people like that, and then other 1363 01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:22,720 Speaker 1: times it's been to where yeah, like a couple of 1364 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,400 Speaker 1: moves got done and guy wasn't as happy. But most 1365 01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:26,800 Speaker 1: of the time it's not a fight thing. I try 1366 01:15:26,840 --> 01:15:28,639 Speaker 1: to show everybody a lot of love, a lot of respect, 1367 01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like for me, it's all 1368 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:33,160 Speaker 1: about fun. I'm not a chip on my shoulder player. 1369 01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 1: I used to be like that. I'm actually not these days, 1370 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,400 Speaker 1: so I try to. I try to make it all 1371 01:15:37,439 --> 01:15:39,760 Speaker 1: done out of love and just in not in distaste. 1372 01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,240 Speaker 1: I got you all right. You were in the movie 1373 01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:47,519 Speaker 1: Semi Pro with Will Farrell basketball classic movie. Um, and 1374 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:51,960 Speaker 1: you know Will Farrell. It's hard to take him serious. Yeah, yeah, 1375 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:53,920 Speaker 1: I don't care what he's doing. It's like, and especially 1376 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 1: playing basketball because I played basketball with him in these 1377 01:15:57,400 --> 01:16:01,120 Speaker 1: celebrity leagues and he's dead ass. And the more dead 1378 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 1: ass serious he is, the funnier it is because it's 1379 01:16:03,560 --> 01:16:06,639 Speaker 1: just well, you can't take him serious. Did you ever 1380 01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 1: give him the business? No? We never played, okay, even 1381 01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:13,519 Speaker 1: at lunch time or anything like that.

So 1459 01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:32,040 Speaker 1: the first couple of times, some people are looking at 1460 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 1: me like it's dude on drugs, and they're like, you 1461 01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 1: won't play, Like alright, I guess. So we pulled it 1462 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:40,559 Speaker 1: off the first couple, and then from then on people 1463 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:42,920 Speaker 1: get super hyped, like every time we pull up, and 1464 01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 1: I don't even have the guys, just have them come 1465 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 1: with me, now, you know what I mean. So we'll 1466 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:48,559 Speaker 1: just walk up there and usually somebody will just want 1467 01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:50,320 Speaker 1: to play, like right out the gates, I'm all right, 1468 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 1: let's do it, and we'll play our games. As soon 1469 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:53,800 Speaker 1: as I get done. I did, but I can only 1470 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:55,880 Speaker 1: play like twenty thirty minutes before I about to pass 1471 01:19:55,880 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 1: out because I can't really see. I can't breathe, it's 1472 01:19:58,520 --> 01:20:01,720 Speaker 1: hard to feel the basketball. So and so far, so 1473 01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:03,640 Speaker 1: far as now, so you got your YouTube channel. What 1474 01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:05,880 Speaker 1: else are you up to in regards to basketball? Like 1475 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:07,360 Speaker 1: do you do clinics and stuff like that? I mean, 1476 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:10,120 Speaker 1: kids must love I love you, whether I mean younger kids. 1477 01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:11,519 Speaker 1: They probably don't know any one, but when you do 1478 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,760 Speaker 1: all the tricks and stuff like that, they must love 1479 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:16,120 Speaker 1: to do you get to you know, like work with kids, 1480 01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:17,800 Speaker 1: like train kids. Like what what do you do now? 1481 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,840 Speaker 1: With basketball? What are you up to now? So right 1482 01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:23,799 Speaker 1: this moment the main focal point of the business YouTube 1483 01:20:24,120 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 1: So uh ball up ended about a year ago. Um, 1484 01:20:28,439 --> 01:20:32,920 Speaker 1: but my contract in it just months ago. So um 1485 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 1: in the process now trying to brigade tours in house. 1486 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:37,280 Speaker 1: We're trying to do global hooper tours and then we're 1487 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:39,439 Speaker 1: gonna start the reality series on YouTube. So we're like 1488 01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: weeks away from that or like a week or so, 1489 01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:43,920 Speaker 1: and what's the reality series? It'll be me just like 1490 01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:46,920 Speaker 1: doing daily stuff from building. We're launching a clothing line 1491 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:50,200 Speaker 1: in the spring. Uh, doing all the global travels. This 1492 01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:53,240 Speaker 1: is like I haven't had a platform really since and 1493 01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 1: wanted to be honest, or ball was on Fox Sports 1494 01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:56,639 Speaker 1: in a couple years. I've never had a platform where 1495 01:20:56,640 --> 01:20:59,320 Speaker 1: people could keep up, like like my events and everything 1496 01:20:59,360 --> 01:21:00,720 Speaker 1: I gotta go on. They would just see like a 1497 01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 1: random video and I try to explain it, but you know, 1498 01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:04,960 Speaker 1: they just took it as like, oh, here's a video. 1499 01:21:05,000 --> 01:21:07,799 Speaker 1: There's a video of this. But I've actually been, you know, touring, 1500 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 1: and so I want to make it like a movement, 1501 01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, and we want to do our tours in houses, 1502 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,679 Speaker 1: a global hooper tours. So that's that's a tough thing. Yeah. 1503 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,040 Speaker 1: But as far as clinics, yeah, it'll show that too. 1504 01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:18,720 Speaker 1: I've done clinic for years. I mean I can even 1505 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:22,439 Speaker 1: count how many clinics I've done. I've trained trained people 1506 01:21:22,439 --> 01:21:27,800 Speaker 1: here and there. Uh, trained college players, trained Jeremy Lynn 1507 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:31,200 Speaker 1: one time. Well he did that help? Like so when 1508 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:34,600 Speaker 1: you're training Jeremy Lynn, obviously he could play. He's the 1509 01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 1: pro ballplayer. And I mean before that injury, like I 1510 01:21:37,439 --> 01:21:39,240 Speaker 1: was excited about him being with the Brooklyn Nets, Like 1511 01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:41,760 Speaker 1: got better. How do you work with a pro player. 1512 01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:43,680 Speaker 1: If you're training people, you're not teaching them how to 1513 01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:46,760 Speaker 1: do tricks, like you're going over like little details of 1514 01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:50,040 Speaker 1: their game. Yeah, totally. And I think like there's a 1515 01:21:50,080 --> 01:21:52,519 Speaker 1: lot of fundamental takeaways to you know, like I don't 1516 01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:55,759 Speaker 1: just do like play like a raw games this basketball. 1517 01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:57,720 Speaker 1: But then there's certain times where implement it. But I 1518 01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:01,639 Speaker 1: never want to do something takeaway from the got so um. 1519 01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,519 Speaker 1: So he had seen me play before, so he was like, hey, 1520 01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:06,439 Speaker 1: you know, I don't have any moves. He was like, 1521 01:22:06,479 --> 01:22:08,280 Speaker 1: you know, I want to work on so I want 1522 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,840 Speaker 1: to get better at my ball handling. So the funny 1523 01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:12,679 Speaker 1: thing is I told a couple of people that's never 1524 01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:15,960 Speaker 1: never on record, but we were working on just like 1525 01:22:16,160 --> 01:22:19,120 Speaker 1: change the direction and like crossover type stuff because he 1526 01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:20,560 Speaker 1: told me, he's like, I don't even go between the 1527 01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:22,280 Speaker 1: legs and behind the back. He's like, I pretty much 1528 01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:23,720 Speaker 1: just put my shoulder down. I kind of give like 1529 01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:26,680 Speaker 1: quick hesitation. So I was trying to add like a 1530 01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: pullback and like crossover moves that he can do out 1531 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:31,400 Speaker 1: of the hesitation because a lot of times you want 1532 01:22:31,400 --> 01:22:33,600 Speaker 1: to create some space, you put your shoulder down like 1533 01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:35,680 Speaker 1: he does, right, But then you'll pull it back and 1534 01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:38,080 Speaker 1: then maybe shot fake, maybe go something like that. So 1535 01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:40,519 Speaker 1: we're working on that series and it was really dope 1536 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:42,800 Speaker 1: and I don't even know if he took away my 1537 01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:45,639 Speaker 1: move necessarily, but like months after that, he actually crossed 1538 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:47,680 Speaker 1: Lebron on a pullback. I don't know if he saw 1539 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:50,920 Speaker 1: this play, but Lebron like trip and he missed the jumper, 1540 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: but I saw that he had like it, taken some 1541 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:55,440 Speaker 1: of it. I didn't actually ask it, so it's essentially 1542 01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:59,720 Speaker 1: you crossed Lebron. I wouldn't go there far, but I 1543 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,280 Speaker 1: think that you know, there was definitely stuff he took 1544 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:04,160 Speaker 1: away that was to be able to put it put 1545 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:08,080 Speaker 1: game applicable right away. Um. Obviously there's been so many 1546 01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:10,960 Speaker 1: great guys from Iverson to Tim Hardaway. I mean that 1547 01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 1: you know, to to to Steve France has had it 1548 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:15,880 Speaker 1: to skip to my loo too. I mean different sort 1549 01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 1: of handles, you know throughout the years in the league. 1550 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:25,600 Speaker 1: Now the professor obligatory top five ball handlers and no 1551 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:28,559 Speaker 1: particular order that you like. It doesn't have to give one, 1552 01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:31,120 Speaker 1: just give me five. I mean they're there and and 1553 01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:35,320 Speaker 1: give me what it is about them. Um, I would 1554 01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:39,639 Speaker 1: say I was start back. Let's let's go back some errors. 1555 01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:42,200 Speaker 1: I say Pistol Pete. Pistol PE's on the top of 1556 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:45,040 Speaker 1: all time because you know, so hard to compare errors, right, 1557 01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,720 Speaker 1: because pistol Pete he was going off the Globetrotters. He 1558 01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:50,280 Speaker 1: got a lot of stuff with sauce from the Globetrotters, 1559 01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:52,880 Speaker 1: and he kind of set the bars like some of 1560 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: the moves I do today, like Pistol Pete or some 1561 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:57,439 Speaker 1: of the the Globetrotters four his fifties probably actually invented 1562 01:23:57,760 --> 01:24:00,200 Speaker 1: or brought to the scene. So I would say still 1563 01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:03,519 Speaker 1: Pete for sure, and his his just how innovative he was. 1564 01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:08,880 Speaker 1: I would say, um allan Iverson of course, sure. And 1565 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,880 Speaker 1: you know what it was like he had a great 1566 01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:14,320 Speaker 1: like hesitations and crossover is a good timing and stuff. 1567 01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:17,479 Speaker 1: But he was so electric, like he's so explosive it's ridiculous. 1568 01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:19,519 Speaker 1: You know. People tried to say so and so had 1569 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:21,679 Speaker 1: better handled in ivers six and more moves. I don't 1570 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:23,439 Speaker 1: know about that though, because like he was like making 1571 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:25,360 Speaker 1: somebody fall like every week, you know what I mean. 1572 01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 1: And and he was really sort of like boom boom, yeah, 1573 01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 1: you know, whereas Kyrie, who obviously he's at the fucking 1574 01:24:32,400 --> 01:24:35,600 Speaker 1: pinnacle right now. It's like a series. It's crazy, and 1575 01:24:35,840 --> 01:24:37,960 Speaker 1: I don't know which is better. I mean, I think Kyrie, 1576 01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:40,879 Speaker 1: you're just like whoa, but a I was like, boom boom, 1577 01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 1: bye bye bye. More explosive. Yeah, you know what, both 1578 01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:48,640 Speaker 1: those guys. I could put Tim hardaway. I copied that 1579 01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:51,360 Speaker 1: crossover too, is a great move, I think. I think yeah, 1580 01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:53,720 Speaker 1: I think Alan Iverson no question, just the explosiveness, you 1581 01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:55,840 Speaker 1: know what I mean, He's a freak athlete. But they 1582 01:24:55,880 --> 01:24:58,400 Speaker 1: also they had to implement the palming rule because of 1583 01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:01,439 Speaker 1: his crossover. So like when I asked him about it, 1584 01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:03,240 Speaker 1: I was like, how come you didn't stop doing a crossover? 1585 01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 1: Like what was it? And he was like, you know, 1586 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:07,639 Speaker 1: they implemented that rule. He said they were upset because 1587 01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 1: you know, he felt like he could get anywhere he 1588 01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:12,439 Speaker 1: wanted on the court. So definitely, AI I was, I 1589 01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:14,800 Speaker 1: put Kyrie up there for the new generation. What the 1590 01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:17,760 Speaker 1: fund is? He sometimes he's doing things like spinning it 1591 01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:20,160 Speaker 1: to him like he's like hitting it and it looked 1592 01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:22,360 Speaker 1: like he's spinning it. And it's not the sham god, 1593 01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 1: because can you make heads and tails? And what the 1594 01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:29,280 Speaker 1: funk he's doing Kyrie sometimes Yeah, yeah, I mean I 1595 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:32,000 Speaker 1: think that his arsenal's crazy. That's why he would have 1596 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:34,160 Speaker 1: to be on there. Like recently they were trying to 1597 01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:37,240 Speaker 1: compare him in Iverson's just like so different, you know 1598 01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:39,920 Speaker 1: what I mean. Diverson was more explosive, like so he 1599 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:42,840 Speaker 1: was quicker, like the first step was quicker, yes, but 1600 01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 1: Kyrie has more a wider way array of moves and 1601 01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 1: then like it's insane like how he'll keep his dribble 1602 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,240 Speaker 1: through traffic and his finish at the bucket his nuts. 1603 01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 1: That's a whole other thing. So so, but I'm just 1604 01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:56,519 Speaker 1: telling when he's like you even on slow motion, like 1605 01:25:56,520 --> 01:26:00,120 Speaker 1: what footwork is nuts? The footwork is nuts. He has 1606 01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:02,800 Speaker 1: a lot of like sham god type stuff. Yeah, but 1607 01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:05,560 Speaker 1: he's like taking it to like two eighteen. Yeah, I 1608 01:26:05,600 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 1: think so absolutely and spins or nuts. Yeah, he doesn't 1609 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 1: have a strong side. He goes right and left the 1610 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 1: same and I'm all, I'm even most impressed that he 1611 01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 1: can play like sort of that sauce street ball style 1612 01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:22,280 Speaker 1: of play, just at that level. And then he's always 1613 01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:25,799 Speaker 1: finishing like his finishes are nuts nuts Yeah, and then't 1614 01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 1: even like an Ai like AI with Mike dunk on 1615 01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:30,479 Speaker 1: you or he like pull up for floating is so explosive. 1616 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,920 Speaker 1: But sometime Kyrie he finds like an opening in the 1617 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:35,800 Speaker 1: basket and that puts a lot of English on the ball. 1618 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:38,680 Speaker 1: He has floater game is crazy. It's not not a 1619 01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 1: lot of weaknesses on offense. No, he's fucking sick nuts 1620 01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:45,880 Speaker 1: all right. Two more I would say, Um, I would 1621 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:51,040 Speaker 1: say Jamal Crawford underrated. Uh, And I think it's because 1622 01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:52,720 Speaker 1: he was like he's really like a two guarden put 1623 01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:54,760 Speaker 1: his handles nuts. And I'd say it was more so 1624 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:58,080 Speaker 1: like like his handle and transition was crazy. And then 1625 01:26:58,120 --> 01:27:01,240 Speaker 1: also he had it all you know what I mean, 1626 01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:04,639 Speaker 1: like crossovers, hesitations. I think Jamal Crawford, like I think 1627 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:07,120 Speaker 1: he might be fifty and he actually looks thirty one. 1628 01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:09,559 Speaker 1: I don't even understand. I think he's fifty years old. 1629 01:27:09,640 --> 01:27:12,160 Speaker 1: Jamal Crawford's fifty, like forty nine or something like that, 1630 01:27:12,240 --> 01:27:14,360 Speaker 1: and he looks thirty. I don't even know. He might 1631 01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:18,479 Speaker 1: he might look younger than thirty. Yeah, he passed seven 1632 01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 1: something like that. Yeah, what do you make of steps handle? 1633 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,360 Speaker 1: Because I feel like Steph right now in all his 1634 01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:28,120 Speaker 1: glory we're almost taking it for granted. It's it's been 1635 01:27:28,120 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 1: going on for so long, and he does he's got 1636 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:35,720 Speaker 1: all the ship, he does all the tricks, and it 1637 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:38,639 Speaker 1: seems like he does them a little bit less now much, 1638 01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 1: not like he's like slowing down or anything, because he's 1639 01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:43,720 Speaker 1: I think he's averaging thirty five points a games. Nuts. Yeah, 1640 01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:46,040 Speaker 1: I'll put stuff on there for the for the new generation. 1641 01:27:46,439 --> 01:27:49,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, ray for Austin, but here's the thing, 1642 01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:52,760 Speaker 1: ray for. He had to go away from street ball 1643 01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:54,599 Speaker 1: in order for the NBA to accept him because at 1644 01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:58,000 Speaker 1: that time, doing that stuff an NBA game, which Kyrie 1645 01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:00,599 Speaker 1: has kind of like Segway where it's app's appable now, 1646 01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:03,240 Speaker 1: but at that time it was looked at it like, oh, 1647 01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:05,240 Speaker 1: some showboll stuff, we don't do that. I swear I 1648 01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:07,439 Speaker 1: saw this and and if anybody on YouTube could find it, 1649 01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:09,519 Speaker 1: I saw it with my own eyes. I saw him 1650 01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:11,760 Speaker 1: dribbling up the court, putting the ball between his legs, 1651 01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:15,040 Speaker 1: and the referee called the travel or a double drip. 1652 01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 1: It wasn't even a carrier, you know what I'm talking about. 1653 01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 1: It was ridiculous. It was I mean, there was no 1654 01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:20,160 Speaker 1: one even near me he was just bringing the ball 1655 01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:21,920 Speaker 1: up the court and he wasn't like doing off his knees, 1656 01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:24,280 Speaker 1: but he was just kind of sucking around bringing the 1657 01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:27,000 Speaker 1: ball up the court and they blew the whistle. I 1658 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:28,720 Speaker 1: think he had an X on his bag. It's like 1659 01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:31,759 Speaker 1: the street ball guy or whatever. And some people didn't 1660 01:28:31,840 --> 01:28:33,280 Speaker 1: like it, you know what I mean, similar to how 1661 01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,720 Speaker 1: Ja they took it out at Jason Williams. Like not 1662 01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:39,000 Speaker 1: that Jason Williams major respect and a great career, won 1663 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:41,680 Speaker 1: a championship, tightened up, improved a lot of aspects of 1664 01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:43,639 Speaker 1: his game. But I feel like if j will would 1665 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:45,320 Speaker 1: have played that style all the way through his career, 1666 01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 1: we might be mentioning him a lot more. You know. 1667 01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:50,679 Speaker 1: That's what I felt like. So I I I would 1668 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:52,559 Speaker 1: put Ja will. I could go three ways. I could 1669 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,080 Speaker 1: say Steph for the new generation, no question, even though 1670 01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:57,040 Speaker 1: his identity is more for a shot, because it's a 1671 01:28:57,040 --> 01:28:59,479 Speaker 1: great shooter of all time in my opinion, let me 1672 01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:03,759 Speaker 1: ask you a question. I don't like this. The people 1673 01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:08,720 Speaker 1: running out of the fucking gym making a big brua 1674 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:13,400 Speaker 1: over every crossover, even every crossover with a miss shot, 1675 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:17,120 Speaker 1: every uh you know could have would he almost bodied 1676 01:29:17,160 --> 01:29:20,760 Speaker 1: him he almost he didn't, and people like it's the instagrammification. 1677 01:29:20,880 --> 01:29:23,720 Speaker 1: People are jumping running around like chickens with their heads 1678 01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:26,799 Speaker 1: cut off. I truly believe it's affecting the way people 1679 01:29:26,840 --> 01:29:30,360 Speaker 1: play defense, certainly outside of the NBA n c A. 1680 01:29:30,360 --> 01:29:31,760 Speaker 1: I don't think you could get away with it because 1681 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:33,880 Speaker 1: the coaching is you know, it's part of you know, 1682 01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:37,400 Speaker 1: it's part of basketball. But you watch like the NBA today, 1683 01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:40,639 Speaker 1: like Alonzo Bowl, like the younger kids like those sort 1684 01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:45,000 Speaker 1: of faint defense to avoid winding up on Instagram, And 1685 01:29:45,120 --> 01:29:48,280 Speaker 1: essentially you're the fucking reason for it because you guys, 1686 01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 1: you guys sort of started this ship. And you see 1687 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,360 Speaker 1: all the players, all the Chris Pauls and all them, 1688 01:29:52,400 --> 01:29:54,559 Speaker 1: like they'll step away from playing defense, do you know 1689 01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about? The NBA, Yes, and social media 1690 01:29:57,920 --> 01:29:59,600 Speaker 1: made like that too. It was like, you know, it 1691 01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:02,200 Speaker 1: was every everybody, Hey, I'll take it. I can influence 1692 01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:04,639 Speaker 1: a game phrase. But no, I think I think every 1693 01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:08,800 Speaker 1: so brand conscious now, right. I mean it's like they know, listen, 1694 01:30:08,840 --> 01:30:11,679 Speaker 1: when Steph made CP three falls, that was years ago. 1695 01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:14,760 Speaker 1: It's like a nightmare. That's all you heard about on 1696 01:30:14,800 --> 01:30:18,880 Speaker 1: social media for a year after the season, like you know, 1697 01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:21,240 Speaker 1: it was a baseball season, they're still playing that. You 1698 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:23,960 Speaker 1: could have scathed his stock? And did he not go 1699 01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 1: head to head with Steph that game? I think Steph 1700 01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:27,679 Speaker 1: got the best of him, but he probably still had 1701 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:30,719 Speaker 1: fifteen and eight, you know what I mean? But the falls, 1702 01:30:30,760 --> 01:30:32,400 Speaker 1: like that's all we want to talk about. But you 1703 01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:35,440 Speaker 1: know also is people are so in love with the celebration. 1704 01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:38,280 Speaker 1: It's so fun, right, like you can clown somebody so hard, 1705 01:30:38,320 --> 01:30:40,920 Speaker 1: like like if somebody gets made fall, people can't wait 1706 01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:42,800 Speaker 1: to scream. And it's not even may not even be 1707 01:30:42,840 --> 01:30:44,479 Speaker 1: about that. They just want to run. In fact, they 1708 01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:46,120 Speaker 1: want to crap on the guy who got shook and 1709 01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:50,400 Speaker 1: have fun. Yeah.

The 1782 01:34:57,160 --> 01:35:00,160 Speaker 1: last scene in Boogie Nights, when you see Mark old 1783 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:04,479 Speaker 1: Berk's character Dirk Diggler, he's in a dressing room getting 1784 01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:08,000 Speaker 1: ready to come out to do a new porno, and 1785 01:35:08,040 --> 01:35:11,040 Speaker 1: that's when he pulls out his loaf. If you watch 1786 01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:13,720 Speaker 1: the last scene of Boogie Nights and then watch the 1787 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:16,080 Speaker 1: last scene in Raging Bull, you'll see what I'm talking about. 1788 01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:19,280 Speaker 1: But we ain't talking about Boogie Nights. We ain't doing 1789 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:21,960 Speaker 1: the Mark Wahlburg line of a week, No disrespect to 1790 01:35:22,040 --> 01:35:26,920 Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg. We're doing the Robert de Niro line of 1791 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:32,240 Speaker 1: the week from Raging Bull. Remember that scene in the 1792 01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:35,080 Speaker 1: back of the car with his brother Charlie, a small 1793 01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:39,519 Speaker 1: time racket guy, and it went something like this. It 1794 01:35:39,640 --> 01:35:43,360 Speaker 1: wasn't him, Charlie, it was you. Remember that night at 1795 01:35:43,360 --> 01:35:45,360 Speaker 1: the guarden you came down to my dressing room and 1796 01:35:45,400 --> 01:35:48,120 Speaker 1: you said, kids, this ain't your night. We're gonna take 1797 01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:51,680 Speaker 1: the price on Wilson. Remember that they ain't your night, 1798 01:35:52,360 --> 01:35:56,200 Speaker 1: my night. I could have taken Wilson apart. So what happens? 1799 01:35:56,680 --> 01:35:59,320 Speaker 1: He gets the title shot outdoors in a ballpark, and 1800 01:35:59,360 --> 01:36:02,840 Speaker 1: what do I get? One way ticket to Pelucoville. It 1801 01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:05,400 Speaker 1: was my brother, Charlie. You should have looked out for 1802 01:36:05,479 --> 01:36:08,080 Speaker 1: me a little bit. You should take care of me 1803 01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:10,599 Speaker 1: just a little bit, so I wouldn't have to take 1804 01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:14,160 Speaker 1: the dives for short earned money. You understand, I could 1805 01:36:14,200 --> 01:36:17,160 Speaker 1: have class. I could have I could have been a contender. 1806 01:36:17,479 --> 01:36:20,479 Speaker 1: I could have been somebody instead of a bum, which 1807 01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:23,759 Speaker 1: is what I am. Let's face it, it was you, Charlie. 1808 01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:26,920 Speaker 1: That is the Robert De Niro line of the weekend. 1809 01:36:26,920 --> 01:36:30,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you what if? So you unusual and 1810 01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 1: unique and crazy about that line from Raging Bull. As 1811 01:36:36,040 --> 01:36:38,719 Speaker 1: you may or may not know, that is a direct 1812 01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:42,400 Speaker 1: monologue one of the most famous monologues in film history 1813 01:36:43,840 --> 01:36:48,360 Speaker 1: by Marlon Brando from on the Waterfront. And it was 1814 01:36:48,439 --> 01:36:53,720 Speaker 1: crazy because in when Raging Bull came out, you had 1815 01:36:53,760 --> 01:36:57,320 Speaker 1: the guy that was considered the brand new method actor 1816 01:36:57,400 --> 01:37:00,679 Speaker 1: of his time, Robert de Niro, first fighting a line 1817 01:37:02,080 --> 01:37:08,040 Speaker 1: from the previous decades method actor of his time on 1818 01:37:08,800 --> 01:37:13,160 Speaker 1: Marlon Brando. Because Marlon Brando is sort of the The Godfather, 1819 01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:19,560 Speaker 1: no pun intended of all things. Method acting. Brando inspired everybody, 1820 01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:25,479 Speaker 1: Dustin Hoffman, Robert Duval, al Pacino, Jack Nicholson, and of 1821 01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:28,080 Speaker 1: course Robert de Niro. So when you have Robert de 1822 01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:34,120 Speaker 1: Niro playing Jake LaMotta and Jake Lamona doing Marlon Brando, 1823 01:37:34,160 --> 01:37:37,360 Speaker 1: but Robert de Niro is playing the part, if you 1824 01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:41,040 Speaker 1: still follow me, just the irony and and and just 1825 01:37:41,120 --> 01:37:44,839 Speaker 1: the the the way Robert de Niro as Jake Lamta 1826 01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:49,439 Speaker 1: played Marlon Brando's character of Terry Malloy, it was just 1827 01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:51,880 Speaker 1: dope because he did it in such a different tone. 1828 01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:55,280 Speaker 1: Because if you look at the original on the waterfront 1829 01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:58,960 Speaker 1: scene by Marlon Brando, he he does it impassionately and 1830 01:37:58,960 --> 01:38:00,880 Speaker 1: and and I tried to do it as best I 1831 01:38:00,920 --> 01:38:04,360 Speaker 1: could without imitating him too much like Robert de Niro, 1832 01:38:04,400 --> 01:38:08,280 Speaker 1: who sort of just does it emotionless. Anyway, I love 1833 01:38:08,720 --> 01:38:11,200 Speaker 1: uh Robert de Niro, I love Marlon Brando, I love 1834 01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:13,240 Speaker 1: all the actors I just mentioned. And that is the 1835 01:38:13,320 --> 01:38:16,599 Speaker 1: return of the Robert De Niro line of the week, 1836 01:38:16,880 --> 01:38:19,040 Speaker 1: which I'm gonna try to uh do a little bit more, 1837 01:38:19,400 --> 01:38:21,840 Speaker 1: but I don't want to play it out, so they 1838 01:38:21,960 --> 01:38:24,160 Speaker 1: have it I am wrapped or stereo podcast will be 1839 01:38:24,240 --> 01:38:30,320 Speaker 1: right back, yo, Yo.
