She's done, Like, I don't 107 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 3: know what else she could have done. 108 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 2: How do you win MVP Defensive Player of the Year, 109 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 2: a World championship, a USA Basketball World Championship, and then 110 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 2: win MVP of the World Championships. 111 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 3: At USA Basketball? 112 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the best players on the best team 113 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 2: and you win the MVP there, Right, it's like a 114 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: clean sweep. I can't remember the last player that's done that. 115 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: And you're right, I mean, she gets shortened, she gets 116 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 2: shorted all the time, and it's and it's amazing because 117 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 2: she handles it with grace.

And 119 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: I think, to me, like my respect just grows tremendously, 120 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 2: and people around the league like she's just someone that 121 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 2: carries a lot of weight in her voice because of 122 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: how she carries herself. 123 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I love her because she speaks on mine and 124 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 4: she marts her to beat her own drumm. 125 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't like that. 126 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 4: You don't follow suitors what everybody else doing when you 127 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 4: do your own thing. It's always a problem with people. 128 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 4: But like you say, she's doing everything she needs to 129 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 4: do to get the recognition that she deserved, but she's 130 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 4: still not getting it. But the fact that she still 131 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 4: doing her job and not really worrying about not speaking 132 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 4: on it, that says a lot about it. 133 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: Moving on, Becky Hammond, a great player in herself for mcconnor. 134 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 4: Was just named the whole w NBA Hall of Fame 135 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 4: on their team. 136 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,239 Speaker 1: Bro. Shit, I mean that's I mean you know that 137 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: this is they got a squad, bro, we got a squad. 138 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: Becky all her championship experience before she was named your 139 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: coach ever talks to her actually coaching in the NBA, 140 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: she decided to come coach. You guys, how's it been 141 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: working with her? 142 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: Becky is tremendous and I always like say, it's only 143 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: a matter of time before we lose her, like in 144 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: the best way, because she's on that track. You know, 145 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: it's a matter of time before. And it's not about 146 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 2: to me. It's not about female or male coaches. It's 147 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: just about coach coach and what you bring to that team. 148 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: I don't know if y'all watch our playoff run last year, 149 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: but we had some close games and those x'es and 150 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: o's and how we executed Becky. 151 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 3: Hammon being around Pop, being around Pop. 152 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 2: And Becky has this ability to be able to have 153 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 2: a really good feel for what each player needs. And 154 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 2: I think that's super important because as a player like Matt, 155 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: maybe she needs to talk to you differently she talks 156 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 2: to me, maybe she needs to coach you differently, and 157 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: those buttons exactly. And I think a lot of coaches 158 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 2: sometimes cast a wide net, and Becky's able to pull little. 159 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 3: Things out in different people. She's incredible. 160 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: I had that obviously with Phil Jackson with the teams 161 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: we had in his ability to push Ron's buttons, to 162 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: push Kobe's buttons, to push power buttons, all that kind 163 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: of stuff, and the magic Johnson told me one time, 164 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: he's like a sign of a great leaders I understanding 165 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: you can't talk to everybody the same way, right, and 166 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: like you said, understanding how to address other people is 167 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: what gets the most out of them. And then she's 168 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: a player. 169 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 4: She played the game, so the ben that's a hell 170 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 4: of a benefit to have a coach that actually played 171 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 4: the game.

And went 260 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 2: to Washington and went to the final four, So it 261 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: was it was a great run for us. 262 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 4: When you leave college and start playing in the WNBA, 263 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 4: do you remember the records you broke? 264 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 2: No? 265 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 3: All that goes away, right, all that goes away. 266 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 2: I encourage I encourage players now that play. I'm like, 267 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 2: when period the end, everything else comes, and everything else comes, 268 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 2: all those scoring titles and dude, they don't mean anything 269 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 2: when that's fun. 270 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 4: You've been a big advocate and speaking on mental health 271 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 4: and things of that such. 272 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: Why is that so important to you? 273 00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 3: And it's important because it's all of us. 274 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: We deal with it in some certain ways. 275 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: Every single one of us is going through something and 276 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: it's on a day to day basis, you know. 277 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:07,719 Speaker 3: And I feel like for me. 278 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 2: When I was going through it, I didn't really have 279 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 2: anyone to talk to about it, and it wasn't something 280 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: that was super like prominent in my family. We didn't 281 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: really speak about that. And then even like I didn't 282 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 2: have a lot of resources of like whom I like 283 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 2: going to share some of these vulnerable feelings and thoughts. 284 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: It's hard for us, especially in people in our position, 285 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: to kind of share our lives because we are public figures. 286 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: And even before we're a public figure, it's just not 287 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: comfortable enough to share. But once you can get a 288 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: certain status, it's even tougher to share. 289 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 2: I mean exactly, And so I think I kept it 290 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 2: to myself and then I mean I just imploded. So 291 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 2: I now I definitely I'm like, I've giving all my number, like, YO, 292 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 2: you need me, hit me whatever, like or maybe I 293 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 2: can put you in touch with someone that can. And 294 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: so I think it's important. I feel like God really 295 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: brought me through that journey to have more empathy and 296 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 2: compassion for people going through it. 297 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: You never know what somebody's going through. The number one 298 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 1: pick in the twenty seventeen draft, the first time ever 299 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: that college two kids from the same college with the 300 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: number one picks in their respective drafts. What was that 301 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: process like leading up? Obviously, Markel folks went to the sixers, 302 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: you went to the San Antonio Stars. Was there a 303 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: lot of hype around that before the process or why 304 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: the process was happening? 305 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 3: There was. 306 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 2: I definitely remember in Seattle it kind of building because 307 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: both of us didn't start number one at the beginning 308 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: of the year. We kind of like worked our way 309 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 2: up as the season went along. But I remember one 310 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: of my favorite memories is he got drafted or excuse me, 311 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: he decided to go pro and he called me the 312 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 2: next day and he said, where are you at? And 313 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm just at the crib whatever, and 314 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: He's like, come outside. He pulled them outside. What did 315 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 2: you wagon? 316 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm out of here? 317 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: And I was hype for but I mean, I couldn't 318 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 2: afforded you wagon. But no, it was awesome. We were 319 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 2: driving around because it's just like as kids, you work 320 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 2: your whole lives for that, you get like that dream 321 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 2: and it finally is coming true. It was really special 322 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 2: to share that with him. 323 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: And it's been unfortunate too because he has so much game, 324 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: and I think them obviously try to change his shot 325 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: and the surgery and everything. But I mean, he had 326 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: and he's a good dude too, but he had a 327 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: lot of game. I'm hoping he's able to. He's kind 328 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: of found his it's funny in Orlando, but it's take 329 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: him a little while, but he's got a lot of game. 330 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: Good kid, You're welcome to the w NBA. 331 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: Moment, Cappy pondexter, I was guarding her and I'm sure 332 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 2: this wasn't the first play, or maybe it was, but 333 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 2: first possession of the game, ISO on the elbow against me, 334 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 2: hit in my face. Next possession, same play, next possession, 335 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 2: step back, same play. 336 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: I got subbed out, didn't play. The rest of the 337 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 3: half was fucked up up. 338 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: That's a great welcome.

And that's how 344 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,359 Speaker 2: I feel now, Like even doing uh the campus offseason, 345 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 2: it's called we called it dog class, but it was 346 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 2: under armour, just trying to bridge the gap from college 347 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: to pro because I learned a lot in those years, 348 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: but I learned because I failed, and like fortunately I 349 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: was in the position where I was allowed to fail 350 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: enough to find my footing. But most women don't have 351 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: that position, right, So I'm like, man like, if we 352 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 2: can figure out a way to give some of that 353 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 2: insight earlier, it can really save some people. So to 354 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 2: answer your question, I didn't have a ton of vets. 355 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: Interesting because we just tested that all the time on 356 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: the NBA side when we first come in. We came, 357 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: he came in late nineties. I came in early two thousands. 358 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: But there were guys that were thirty six, thirty seven, 359 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 1: thirty eight, and where they get contributed on the floor 360 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: or not. They contributed so much in the locker room 361 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: and on the road and just kind of putting their 362 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: arm around you and helping with those pitfalls. And it 363 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: seems like both leagues now are just younger and younger. 364 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: So it's the young leading the young, and like you said, 365 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: fortunate enough to be able to make the mistakes because 366 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: a lot of other people aren't afforded those opportunities to 367 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: continue to kind of let me find my way, right. 368 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: So interesting, toughest match up early on, or or one 369 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: match if you really looked forward to once you got there. 370 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 2: It's a league. The thing about the w is like 371 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 2: everyone's good. Even now when we play it's like, okay, 372 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: I think this stretch we played like we played Seattle, 373 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 2: so I was guarding Jewel. In the next game, I 374 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 2: was Garden Rique, and then the next game Garden Jordan, Canada. 375 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 2: I mean, like everyone's good. Every night, there's no like, oh. 376 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 3: You know, I'm chilling today. 377 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 2: I mean, everyone talks about our super team or whatever, 378 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 2: but like, man, we're out there, We're out there competing. 379 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it's tough. It's tough. 380 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: What kind of target. Obviously, you win a championship, so 381 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: be able to back to back that it's tough. Every 382 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: single night. It's the other team's biggest game. You know, 383 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: they can be not even in contention, but beating you 384 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: guys is like we got them. They're not that good 385 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: or whatever the situation may be. So what is that 386 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 1: like every single night going on the road. Obviously at home, 387 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 1: it's different going on the road knowing how big this 388 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: game is for the other team. 389 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 3: I stopped I stopped caring. 390 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,239 Speaker 2: Okay, I mean honestly, like US versus US period, like 391 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: we over here like trying to get better and like 392 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: if we handle our business, it don't matter. 393 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:46,199 Speaker 3: That's kind of the approach. 394 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 2: I feel like the older you get, the more you 395 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 2: stop caring about everyone else, like in that way, Yeah, 396 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: you know, in the right way exactly. And so to 397 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: be honest, like I don't care, she doesn't, you don't. 398 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 4: You know, I don't right about that. 399 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: That's one thing you can guarantee. 400 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 4: We all see y'all celebration on the Vegas trip, but 401 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 4: take us take us back to the journey to get 402 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 4: to that point. You know a lot of people have 403 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 4: seen all that, but ups and downs, the highs and 404 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 4: lows doing the season, the injuries, the arguments with teammates, 405 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 4: all that. You know, a lot of people don't understand 406 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 4: that very few people get a chance to experience being 407 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 4: a champion, are the best in their craft. 408 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: Talk about the road to get there? How does that feel? 409 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 2: Even when you ask that question, I can tell it 410 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 2: like it holds weight, you know, it does. 411 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 3: It's a feeling that's hard to articulate. 412 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 2: But you're right, there's so many moments throughout and it's 413 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 2: not like that season. Like you said, it's like compounding 414 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 2: because like I got drafted in twenty seventeen Asia and 415 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen Jackie in twenty nineteen, and then Chelsea came 416 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: in a free agent in twenty twenty. So like we've 417 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 2: been building this for years, you know, and we've we've 418 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 2: had i mean, first three years didn't make the play playoffs, 419 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 2: you know, and we had three number one picks, so 420 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 2: and we've heard like the underachieving in that for for 421 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: a while. So to get over that hump, it was just, man, 422 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 2: it was special, special to do with that group too, 423 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: you know, because as you guys know, when things get hard, 424 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 2: it's really easy to just be like it's mass fault, 425 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 2: I'm out, and so to kind of dig down and 426 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 2: decide that we're going to do this together and we're 427 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: going to put our egos aside, because like when you 428 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 2: play on a team like this, you might go you 429 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 2: might go from eighteen shots to fourteen, and your average 430 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: is going to go down, and people around what's going 431 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: on with you? You're not no, no, I'm better than I was. 432 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 2: But it's it's the team. It's the team. So it's hard. 433 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 2: It's hard to turn it, tune out that noise, but 434 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 2: when you in, it makes it all worth it. 435 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 4: But that's as an athlete that says more about the 436 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 4: players that you have that they him all buy in 437 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 4: with being all everybody being great, we can all buy 438 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 4: into the one goal that says a lot about players 439 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 4: and that they're coachable. You know what I'm say, Because 440 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 4: a lot of teams can't do that. You see teams 441 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 4: with a lot of stars to badly make the playoffs, 442 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 4: but to be able to come together put your egos 443 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 4: to a side. That's the great teams. That's why I 444 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 4: got a chance of going back to back. Who was 445 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 4: the most lit on the preid? 446 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: Who is the Stephen Jackson of the parade? Yeah, you're 447 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: about to crown yourself. 448 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: Man, it's crazy. That's the guard took me out. Took 449 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 3: me out. That's my first gigar I've ever smoked. 450 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 2: That was brutal. I would say Asia, she was on 451 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 2: four locos. 452 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 3: I mean, what are we doing? 453 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: I love her? 454 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 4: I love her, I love her, I love her. 455 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: Yes, I love her. Yeah. 456 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: I would probably say he and Jackie Jackie sneaky. Jackie 457 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 2: had them glasses on, but Jackie was faded. 458 00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 3: Yeah. 459 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 4: The one day you supposed to be doing the playoffs, 460 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 4: she had a chance to go one last time was 461 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 4: Sue Bird? 462 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about Sue man Sue's Uh. 463 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 3: Sue is an icon. 464 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 2: Sue is uh somebody that for me had a tremendous 465 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 2: impact on my career because she took the time out 466 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:22,239 Speaker 2: of her day to always check on me, and like 467 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 2: that goes a long way because that does nothing for her, 468 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 2: you know, and not like really resonated with me. And 469 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 2: I mean she just made everyone around her better on 470 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 2: the court and off the court, you know. 471 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 3: Uh. 472 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 2: And so man Sue, she's the goat uh And it's 473 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 2: just an honor to be able to play. I got 474 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 2: to play with her a little bit with USA Basketball, 475 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 2: but playing against her the way she competes, she's like 476 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 2: a computer out there. But again, just really happy for her. 477 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 2: She's had one of the greatest careers of all time. 478 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: So I love so. She's one of the coolest people 479 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: on earth. Because we talked to her, right, she's about her. 480 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: She said she's gonna come smoke with us. That's so. 481 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: But but but the live cast that you do with 482 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: with that with DT is the funniest. They had the 483 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: little red cups. You don't know what's in them cups. 484 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 1: They turned up. You've been very vocal about the league, 485 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: most recently speaking to players and all star tickets in 486 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: a perfect world, what do you feel like the w 487 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: can do better? 488 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 3: Oh gosh, how much time we got? 489 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: Right? 490 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 3: No, you know, I'm not here to bitch. 491 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 2: I would say that I feel like everything rises and 492 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 2: falls on leadership. And so when you have the right 493 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 2: people making the right decisions that represent the body of 494 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 2: players that you have, good things will happen. And until 495 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 2: that happens, you'll see what you see, which is a 496 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: secondary product, and it's not it's not on the court, 497 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 2: it's everything else that comes into that. And so you know, 498 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 2: we're we're working to make changes, but it takes time, 499 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 2: and I understand that changes in overnight. But but man 500 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 2: like we uh, we know that the game has come 501 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 2: a long way, but we do have a long way 502 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: to go. 503 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: But it helps to have stars speak up and not 504 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: be afraid to speak up, because some people are afraid 505 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: to speak up. And even they know I could be 506 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 1: speaking up and it's going to speak for the masses, 507 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: and some people are afraid to do that. 508 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:23,479 Speaker 3: Mm hm. 509 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: Any favorite college hoopers? Obviously, the final four last year 510 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: for the women's was incredible. I got guarded more attention 511 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: than the menu. You know, Kaylyn Kark and Angel restole 512 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: the show. But any players that you still follow, Oh. 513 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I watched a lot of college basketball. I mean 514 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 2: those two are tremendous. Uh. I think that it's so 515 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: cool to see like them take off after that too. 516 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: There's a reason you like. 517 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 3: To capitalize on that. For me, the nil like that, 518 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 3: that to me was really cool to see. 519 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 2: And uh, you know, people wonder like is that good 520 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: for the w is I think it's great. I think 521 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: it pushes is that envelope further and further. People got 522 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: people talking that didn't even watch basketball before you know 523 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 2: that tuned in, So I think all that is great. 524 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was definitely spoke up on it. But when 525 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 1: Angel Rescott, I don't even know. People were just mad 526 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:17,719 Speaker 1: because she was talking shit. And I'm just like, if 527 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: if men talk this shit every single day, you guys 528 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: to say a motherfucking word. A woman talked shit on 529 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: the biggest stage and it wasn't like it was a 530 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,719 Speaker 1: one sided shit talk because Kaitlyn was definitely talking her 531 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: shit the entire time. What were your guys' thoughts as 532 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: women and as players in your league when there was 533 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,679 Speaker 1: such an outrage for what, you know, when she was 534 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: doing what's a part of the game. 535 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I love it as someone that I mean, 536 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 2: I know you guys will be surprised, but I only 537 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 2: talk when someone talks to me. 538 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: First. I was the same way he was just talking 539 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: to That's hard to believe. That's hard to believe. 540 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 2: I mean, if I get going, I get going. But 541 00:25:53,880 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 2: to me, I feel like, honestly, it's people feel secure. 542 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 2: You have like a strong black woman that's confident in 543 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 2: herself and knows what she's talking about, and she's just 544 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 2: saying what she feels. I think a lot of people 545 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 2: were like, WHOA, Like, how do I feel about this? 546 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 2: I think it's the same way with women in general. 547 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 3: A lot of times. 548 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: You should see some of the things that people say 549 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: on w games, like I don't even know if they 550 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 2: would ever make us up, but it's it's like. 551 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 3: We talk like y'all talk. There's no difference. 552 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 2: It might even be cattier. Probably it's probably more personal. 553 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: Too say that women could d they get straight to 554 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: shout out to life. 555 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 3: I didn't mean to. 556 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: Trauma, yeah, I mean I just thought it was adicting because, 557 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: like I said, you see this ship every single day 558 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: in our game. Now then women are doing it, have 559 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: been doing it, but now it's on a big stage. 560 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: You guys have an issue with it, like what's the problem. 561 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 1: But I mean, I think you said it very well. 562 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 4: Even if it was a problem, why was it the 563 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 4: most watched.
