94
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 5: I had to go to Oakland and Hayward, Frisco Freemont.

95
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 5: I had to go down the day go in LA.

96
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 5: I had to go seek out the competition. So I

97
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 5: was I was spending my time in Oakland, the town,

98
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 5: looking for that competition, just so I could prove myself like.

99
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 2: That that you're good enough, because I know all the

100
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 2: kids from LA was always getting the hype because they

101
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: in LA.

102
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Oakland too.

103
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 6: How much did your brother You're saying how your brother

104
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 6: came before you? How much did he impact like you

105
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 6: coming up? Like you know how it is a big

106
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 6: bro always beat up on the little bro until he don't.

107
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 6: So how long was it for you into like how

108
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 6: much did he impact you come up? And then at

109
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 6: what point did you first beat him?

110
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 4: A lot?

111
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 5: Man, he impacted me a lot because I was smaller

112
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 5: than he was. Growing up, I had to use my

113
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 5: perimeter again, you know what I mean. I had to

114
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 5: use my quickness to get around him. I'd use my

115
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 5: ball handling around him. And then probably once I got

116
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 5: to like maybe my junior senior year, that's when I

117
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 5: was like he came home from college. He was still

118
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 5: a different animal, you know when you go to college,

119
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 5: different beats. But that's when I could like actually size

120
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 5: up with him, like try and dunk on him and

121
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 5: stuff like that.

122
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 4: You know that we match up with him.

123
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 6: You crazy athletic type dude. At what age was your

124
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 6: first dunk ever?

00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: Man?

126
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 4: I was about twelve.

127
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 2: When you're dunk in the regular ball, you drunking like

128
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 2: tennis ball, volleyball, then regular.

129
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 5: Ball tennis ball first, and then I just went to

130
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 5: the regular ball. I was throwing the lob to myself,

131
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 5: so I would throw it up and then let it,

132
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 5: let it bounce and go and jump in and try

133
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:41,679
Speaker 5: and like rim grads.

134
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,600

00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 5: stronger understand the game.

272
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,199

Speaker 4: Gonna get them tomorrow, you know what I mean.

276
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,840

00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 5: it got me going and got let to let a

278
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 5: game again, you know what I mean?

279
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 6: When you first started, like getting out there the playoff

280
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 6: first few games, did you notice that your athleticism like, okay, yeah,

281
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 6: I'm still different out here, Like even though I was

282
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 6: different in high school, now I see that, like I'm

283
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 6: still standing out even on this level. Now, at what

284
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 6: point did you realize that?

285
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 4: And preseason? I caught a live on Roy Hibbert.

286
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: Okay, Georgetown right here, that's a big boy.

287
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, somebody threw me a live and I caught him.

288
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 5: He tried to he tried to do one of them

289
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 5: and needed to be like that. I was like, okay, okay,

290
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 5: I think I could. I think I can still do this.

291
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 5: So I was just like beating everybody down the floor

292
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 5: and catching lives, catching tip dunks, you know, trying to

293
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 5: do all the intangible stuff because like my game wasn't

294
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 5: where it needed to be to uh you know, like

295
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 5: really really impact when it. But I was just trying

296
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 5: to do all the little things.

297
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 2: What made you decide to just get up out just

298
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 2: be like, yeah, you know, I don't want to do

299
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 2: another year.

300
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 1: I'm ready.

301
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 4: I want to go right.

302
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 1: Now, get back to the straight out of high school thing.

303
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 5: That's a good question. I think that's kind of what

304
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 5: it was. I was just trying to hustle up and

305
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 5: get to the A. Man, it was hard for me

306
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 5: to even say. Like in the conference, I was like, man,

307
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 5: I'm going to the NBA, you know what I mean,

308
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 5: because like we dreaming, we dream of that as a kid.

309
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: You know what I mean.

310
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 5: Sean Miller shout out, Sean Miller is my college coach. Yeah,

311
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 5: he was like, A, you probably going to be about

312
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 5: top ten. You should probably go. And I respect him

313
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 5: for that, you know what I mean. There's a lot

314
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 5: of college coaches that'll be like you going late first round,

315
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 5: second round.

316
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're gonna stay here.

00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: whole life.

344
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 6: Like you get you got the full till you got

00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 6: walk across that stage and shake the hand and say

349
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 6: I'm in the league. What was all that life for you?

350
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 4: Man?

351
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: That was wild? Man, that's wild. You see every year, yeah,

352
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 1: every year.

353
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 5: I felt like I just kind of like floated across

354
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 5: the stage, you know what I mean, Like I couldn't

355
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 5: even feel my legs.

356
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 4: This shit was wild.

357
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 5: I didn't know I was going for I thought I

358
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 5: was going, uh like eight to sacramentover like seven to

359
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 5: La and then I jumped all the way up to four.

360
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 5: So I was like, oh, man, quick in and out.

361
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 5: I was in my suit. I'm telling you, like I

362
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 5: was eighteen years old. But we was turning up after that.

363
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 5: To tell you, it was turning all.

364
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: The way up.

365
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, a city, New York City. We were up all

366
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 5: night and after that, and then just flew right through

367
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 5: Orlando after that to do some press. It was a

368
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 5: dream come true, man, being there with my family.

369
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, how was it when you see your pops face

370
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 2: and your mom face and just the expression on them

371
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 2: just seeing what was going on, like all this is

372
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 2: coming to for us.

373
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 5: I just having my family around it was an amazing thing.

374
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 5: Like my grandpa and grandma they passed away, but they

375
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 5: were able to experience that with me, so like it

376
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 5: was like just like perfect, you know what I mean,

377
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 5: Like because they got to see me accomplished something that

378
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 5: they hadn't seen me chasing.

379
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 4: Since I was a little boy.

380
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

381
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 6: How was it when you when you got to Orlando?

382
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 6: You know, the first year you had the foot injury,

383
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 6: you kind of was up and down with that. How

384
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 6: was the adjustment from you know, college to the league,

385
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 6: and like you said, you was going through basically rebuild.

386
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: We had just I was just here previously before you

387
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: got here.

388
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 6: Dwight everything, he left, and it was like the team

389
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 6: was in shamboos trying to figure it out and rebuild.

390
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 6: And I'm just being honest, trying to rebal bro and

391
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 6: figure things out and rebound back from that.

392
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: And he was one of the first pieces to come.

393
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 6: So I just want to know how it felt for

394
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 6: him to come into an organization like that where it's

395
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 6: kind of like it's nothing really solid right now. It

396
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 6: was no culture, it was no like he said, he

397
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 6: had like three four different coaches. Bro, Like you know

398
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 6: what I'm saying, front office was in it was in

399
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 6: flux at the time. It still wasn't really set. Like

400
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. They've gotten stronger and got

401
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 6: things situated now with front office end coach, but like

402
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 6: when he was here, every year.

403
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: It was something different. So how was that for you

404
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: to come into the scenario like that?

405
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 4: Man, that was tough. I'm not even gonna lie.

406
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 5: I was eighteen years old. I'm from the West Coast too, Yeah,

407
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. So I'm watching the Lakers,

408
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 5: I'm watching the Warriors. I'm watching the Suns Seattle. I'm

409
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 5: watching all West Coast teams. I really ain't know about

410
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 5: Orlando until like a little bit of shock and Penny,

411
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 5: but mostly like Dwhite and like that team like he

412
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 5: do and Jamir and all them y'all.

413
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 4: So I got there, I didn't know much about the organization,

414
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 4: and I.

415
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 5: Was dealing with injuries, foot injuries, ankle injuries, knee injuries, whatever, whatever,

416
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 5: And then I'll put my work in and then they

417
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 5: would they would get fire to coach.

418
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, So you got to start

419
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 2: all over. I just just rapport with him and then

420
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 2: he gone exactly, So maybe this.

421
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 5: Coach like you, next coach don't like you, don't you

422
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 5: don't like how you how you're rocking, and he's not you.

423
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 4: You're not his guy.

424
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, same thing next year. I have five different

425
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 5: coaches in five years and four different general managers. A

426
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 5: team that's just like so, it's like running on the

427
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 5: trail or running in quick stands, like there's no traction.

428
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 4: There's no traction. You can't couldn't do nothing, couldn't get

429
00:17:59,359 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 4: nothing done.

430
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 6: I gotta get into this dunk contest stuff, man, because

431
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 6: we know, like we're sitting here right now with the

432
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 6: greatest dunker to never win the actual dunk contest and

433
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 6: he probably should have two or more trophies, Like this

434
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 6: is this is not all and didn't get what you

435
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 6: deserved though, and then it's also judges and people that

436
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 6: was voting and saying he should have won. I'm like, wait,

437
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 6: this is not so we gotta get into this because

438
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 6: I was there, Hey, black, I told you I was

439
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 6: there in Toronto. Remember Andre Drummond was part of it.

440
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 6: You might not remember because he went out in the

441
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 6: first round and he said this himself, like.

442
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: He said that he was with me. He was like, damn,

443
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: this is impressive.

444
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,239
Speaker 6: Like we were sitting there together in AWE like, Bro,

445
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 6: I was there, it was coldest, shitting tea dot and

446
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 6: I remember being in that Arendam oh Man and I

447
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 6: remember just sitting there like I'm not even thinking. I

448
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 6: can remember when we came into checking. It was like

449
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 6: I saw you go that way, Will Barton over here.

450
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 4: It was like this might be cool.

451
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 6: I was not knowing it was about to be legendary

452
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 6: like that, Bro, Like, what was your thoughts when it

453
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 6: really got to the nitty gritty when it was you

454
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 6: and Zach doing that going tip for tat like you

455
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 6: bringing now stuff, you y'all throwing the whole kitchen sink,

456
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 6: and it's like, bro, what the fuck else can y'all do?

457
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 4: I was just like, I'm about to do some ship.

458
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 4: That's kind.

459
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 5: I was thinking, like, don't nobody else really know what

460
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 5: I'm about to do except for maybe my agent and

461
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 5: maybe my family.

462
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: That's it. That's it.

463
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 5: So I'm like, look, when I throw this down, it's over.

464
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 5: The dun contest is coming home with me. When I

465
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 5: go under both both legs in the NBA du Contest, man,

466
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 5: that's never been seen before at.

467
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 1: All, something like the glider joint.

468
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 5: Look little height, So I thought I thought that was

469
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 5: a I thought it was a rap. After that, I

470
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 5: was going like this, I was like, it's wrapped up,

471
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 5: let's go home, you know what I mean. Probably should

472
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 5: have went like this, you know what I mean, something

473
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 5: as simple as that, You feel me.

474
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: We get caught up in ourselves sometimes like man, we

475
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 1: should have won it.

476
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 6: But then when you get out of it and you

477
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 6: see social media, you see basically the world.

478
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: Like even Zach at one point was like, bro.

479
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 4: He was like yeah, maybe we should share this, Like

480
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 4: you know what.

481
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: I'm saying, like, how does that feel?

482
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 2: Like?

483
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I know that's got to make you feel

484
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: a little bit better. But at the end of the day,

485
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 1: who we are and you ain't.

486
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 6: Got that trophy in the cred that's the difference. Like

00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 4: everybody agreed that you deserved.

495
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,120

498
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying, Man, that's good enough. Man, let

499
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 5: me get that trophy.

500
00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 4: Let's get up out of here. Man again too, then again, man, come.

501
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 1: D Wade.

502
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 4: He played with Derrick Jones.

503
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: So that's what I was about to ask you. Do

504
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 1: you think do you think? Like, do you wait? My brother,

505
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 1: he knows he my brother.

506
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 6: But of course we can say this in front of

507
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 6: the ros do you think it was a real Heat

508
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 6: Coulture moment going on where he was staying with his

509
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 6: brethren and he was being loyal to the Heat coaching

510
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 6: right there where he gave a little the nine to

511
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 6: Deck Jones.

512
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think he was. But at the

513
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 4: same time, you know, like should I want?

514
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 5: I think so, But you can't discredit zacht Levine ever,

515
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, he was doing some crazy

516
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 5: stuff too, and you can't discredit Derek Jones Junior as

517
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 5: a dunker too, So you know what I mean, it's

518
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 5: a little bit of the toss up, but.

519
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 2: The sweet I can I should get one, but I

520
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 2: don't want to dis them exactly.

521
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 4: But do I think some under the table, you know what.

522
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 5: I mean kind of like around as far as as

523
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 5: far as the judgment was going, you.

524
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 2: Just you know you're going to be the talk when

525
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 2: they say Zach Levine and Derrick Jones, you're gonna have

526
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 2: one like yeah, you know, ag beat them there.

527
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 6: He easily gonna be like the most talked about dunk

528
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 6: contest guy that didn't actually win, Like he gonna be

529
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 6: talked about as if he won but didn't win because

530
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 6: he did. Like that's the fact, so like he gonna

531
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 6: get that glory because whenever they go to talk about it,

532
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 6: that's gotta be. That was one of the top five

533
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 6: dunk contests in the history of the game period. That

534
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 6: shit was a show top three to mine the boy

535
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 6: when you got out of there, social media, everywhere else

536
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 6: that saw they was talking about these here. These two brought.

537
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 6: They brought the dunk contest back. They put it back

538
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 6: on the map. Y'all put it Like how was that

539
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 6: feeling to know? They're like, Okay, I didn't win, but

540
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 6: my consolation prize is like the dunk contests have been down.

541
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 6: They have been about to take that thing out for

542
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 6: a long time. Y'all like put life back into it,

543
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 6: Like oh wait, these dudes can think of something new

544
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 6: and like be more innovative and stuck Like at that point,

545
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 6: were like what can anybody else do right here? And

546
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 6: then y'all came and flipped the table like bitch, we

547
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 6: doing this Like damn, I was like he walking on

548
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 6: her doing windmills from the free throw line. This man

549
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 6: jumping over manscot on the damn hubble board, Like, bro,

550
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 6: this was crazy.

551
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 5: Y'all did some different ship. I ain't gonna lie. It's

552
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 5: cool man. They they call it the People's Chap.

553
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 4: Was in Toronto, Yeah, real chat, Yeah one time.

554
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, I.

555
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 1: Take the better chip. What you personally right?

556
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 6: Your history in the dunk contest speak for itself. But

557
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 6: if you had to choose your favorite dunk out of

558
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 6: your any of them, what's your favorite dunk?

559
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 4: Oh?

560
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 5: I mean, I think my favorite dunk was a school

561
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 5: or I scooped it around buddy. Buddy was spinning around

562
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 5: like that and I spun the opposite way, and I

563
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 5: think that was probably my life.

564
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: The visual was crazy.

565
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 4: That was a steezy you know what I mean?

566
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 6: That was like real Steezys was definitely nuts on that.

567
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 6: That's why I was saying, like, because he's elevated like

568
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 6: at least two three inches on the other boy, and

569
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 6: he was, like you said, he was just hitting the

570
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 6: three sixty when they hit it the other way.

571
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's crazy. I know how much you love Orlando. Yeah,

572
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 2: how much love you get around here in Orlando is

573
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 2: it's just crazy And that takes into it. It's like

574
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,959
Speaker 2: we take a beating for the people that love us,

575
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 2: and the team ain't trying to get it together and

576
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 2: get it right, But did that give you the feeling

577
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: that you ultimately wanted to leave? Because you know, we

578
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 2: love our teammates, we love the fans, we love the city.

579
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 5: Man, you're right, man, that's a good point, he said.

580
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 5: We take a beating for the people that love it.

581
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 5: It's real, real, I think, you know, you know, it

582
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 5: was like really tough. I think when Markel got hurt,

583
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 5: that was tough because Kel's is such a like solid

584
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 5: point guard, you know what I mean. So it was like, man,

585
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 5: we finally got we got a boy, you know what

586
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 5: I mean.

587
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 4: We got a dog, That's what I'm saying.

588
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 5: And then Jay always kind of hurt a little bit too,

589
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 5: so it was kind of I was kind of starting

590
00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 5: to see the same type of trend.

591
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 4: Happening, Like, you know, I think it's time.

592
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 5: I got to score twenty seven twelve and eight assists

593
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 5: for us to be in the game and go out

594
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 5: the best player and.

595
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 4: Guard the best player on the.

596
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 5: Other side, for us just to be in the game

597
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 5: twenty five twelve and eight, and like, that's a lot

598
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 5: of work.

599
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: Man.

600
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 4: I wasn't able to do that, you know what I mean.

601
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: I'll own up to that.

602
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 4: I wasn't able to do that. I needed a lot

603
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 4: of help, so I go find some help.

604
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: When you first heard Denver is where you were going,

605
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 2: what was your first reaction to it.

606
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 4: I was unsure a little bit. I was unsure.

607
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 5: It was between like actually Portland with Dame Denver, Boston

608
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 5: and Houston.

609
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 4: Houston. It was gonna give me the keys. They're like, shit,

610
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 4: let you play. You know what I mean. We want

611
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 4: to see you expand your game. Boston.

612
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 5: It would have been cool just with them, two other dogs,

613
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 5: two boys. Denver just felt like the perfect fit. It

614
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 5: almost felt like it was like the college team again.

615
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,080
Speaker 5: When I picked Arizona, it was because I could to

616
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,719
Speaker 5: play that small forward position to play or that forward

617
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 5: power forward position.

618
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: It was right there.

619
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 4: The same thing with Denver. That's what they needed.

620
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 5: They needed like a defensive stopper, somebody that could be intangible,

621
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 5: to be a glue guy. Yeah, getting worth of fitting.

622
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 5: So I was like, man, this might be perfect. It's

623
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 5: gonna work out. How hard is it for you? Because

624
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 5: I feel like you are twenty point of game score.

625
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 5: You can do all the stuff that the other guy's doing,

626
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 5: But to relinquish that and just play a role and

627
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 5: fit into that role, Like I felt you suposed to

628
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 5: make the All Star team last year that they didn't

629
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 5: give you the props.

630
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: So too.

631
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 4: But it's different though, because I do it from the

632
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 4: dunker position.

633
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I mean.

634
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 5: But I feel a lot of the All Stars they

635
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 5: do it from the guard position or like the center vision.

636
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 5: I'm working at the baseline, you know what I mean.

637
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 5: You don't really see that very often, but.

638
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 2: I feel like you, like when you're on the team

639
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 2: and how you play, you should get rewarded for what

640
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 2: you bring. Sometimes they don't be on the stat ship,

641
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: but you know, real ballers know that, Like, yeah, his

642
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 2: imprint on the game was different. But how is it

643
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 2: for you to just mentally be like, I'm not going

644
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 2: for top five and scoring or top five and rebounds.

645
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: It's a key role that I got to play for

646
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 2: us to be successful and for us to win that

647
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 2: I got to relinquish because you've been the man everywhere

648
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 2: you went. You know, you the number one option, number

649
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 2: two options everywhere you went. You have to play three

650
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 2: four on this team. So how is that mentally to

651
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 2: just you know, bring it down to be like, man,

652
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 2: I want to I sacrifice this for us to win.

653
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 1: It was cool, you know what I mean? It was cool.

654
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 5: I felt like out of years of my career. Yeah,

655
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, I wasn't having to do

656
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 5: so much on the basketball floor. Shit, still do what

657
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 5: I do when I came to the league. Defend, rebound, run,

658
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 5: get the intangibles, get your cuts, you know what I mean.

659
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 5: Knock down spot now, spot up, make you spot up threes,

660
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 5: and like I said, guard man Bro's and then you

661
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 5: got Jamal Murray, you got Nicola Yokis, and you got

662
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 5: Michael Porter and like other pieces Casey p.

663
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 4: L B, Jeff Green.

664
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 5: I felt like selfishly and like ego, Like my ego

665
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 5: is like, man, if you put me on a team

666
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 5: with these guys, we're not losing. And that's kind of

667
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 5: how I felt I could take a back seat to

668
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 5: I mean, of course it's Nicola Yokis, bro he do shit.

669
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 4: Every day that It's like, damn, that was wild as hell.

670
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 6: I viewed your role and you kind of like how

671
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,360
Speaker 6: how tricks were Sean million for us?

672
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 1: Right?

673
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 6: Like Steve Nash was the MVP of the entire league

674
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 6: back to back years, but it's an argument that we made.

675
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 1: Sean Mayne was the MVP of our team.

676
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 6: You see what I'm saying the same way, like you

677
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 6: allow all those different pieces to do everything, Like you

678
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 6: the guy that came in. Now, now we don't have

679
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 6: to double this guy. We don't have to double that guy.

680
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 6: We put this guy on them in. He gonna hold pack.

681
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 6: He's gonna allow us to not double. Not saying you're

682
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 6: gonna completely shut this person out or whatever, but you're

683
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 6: gonna allow everybody to look y'all mind, y'all business, I

684
00:28:59,320 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 6: got this over here.

685
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: People don't understand how valuable.

686
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 6: That is to a team and to be able to say,

687
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 6: not only do I bring that, I'm gonna get you

688
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 6: ten plus rebounds, I'm gonna get tip dunk. I'm like

689
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 6: you say, I'm a rim run, I'm a lane cut.

690
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 6: I'm gonna be hell on that. And then I'm physical

691
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,719
Speaker 6: as fucked too. But at the same time, I can

692
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 6: take that thing off the rim like tricks, push it

693
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 6: up and facilitate and start to break and set something up.

694
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 1: Man. So like you remember that was always my comparison. Like,

695
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: but he's like see two point ohcause he's.

696
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 6: Taller and big, bigger, you know what I'm saying, Like

697
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 6: he was like Sean did it from a disadvantage. You

698
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 6: doing it from a little more fair situation. But it's

699
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 6: like it to me, it's the same thing. And it's

700
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 6: like anybody to play on your team, they always send

701
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 6: your praises, Like that's what I that's what all of

702
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 6: us do with Tricks because we, more than anybody know

703
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 6: the value outside of that locker room, like nobody knows

704
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 6: like a KCP outter, you didn't cover for him, and

705
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 6: because he did this and you came and raised some

706
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 6: shit or whatever you did, Like we know intimately what

707
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 6: Tricks was.

708
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 1: Like, Tricks was coming through helping bro. And I see

709
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: the same thing. The way you are.

710
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 6: You basically a Swiss army knight, you know what I'm saying.

711
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 6: Like one night you might hear four five, the next

712
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 6: night you might not take one and you just lock

713
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 6: somebody up and get sixteen rebounds, you.

714
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying.

715
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 6: But like it's basically whatever the team need you provide.

716
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 6: So like that's a dope position to be in and

717
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 6: won a championship, you know what I'm saying, Like, because

718
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 6: what you did.

719
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 4: How have you ever had a center that dims you

720
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 4: up the way Joker.

721
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 3: Like some of the I know some of the past.

722
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 3: I see Joker pass you, I'm like, gods, don't even

723
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 3: attempt that.

724
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it couldn't even throw that because he's playing at

725
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 4: a different level that throw it up.

726
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 5: Who could pass? Who could pass a little bit? But

727
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 5: it's not like, yo, man, I remember coming into Denver,

728
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 5: I don't really know much about Joker because if you

729
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 5: don't watch Dever basketball, you don't even know, like really

730
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 5: what the hype is about.

731
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: No idea.

732
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 5: I'm guarding somebody in the corner and transition, tried to front, Yo,

733
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 5: can transition? You can't front and transition right, So they

734
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 5: try and they lob it over the top. I come,

735
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 5: I sink down off the corner, helped you on side

736
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 5: corner to try and.

737
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 4: Go take away the pass.

738
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 5: He looked this way and then tipped the ball that

739
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 5: way to my man in the corner like that my

740
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 5: man and I think Gary Harris just spot up three.

741
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 5: I was like, Oh, he's playing nice, playing a different game.

742
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 5: It's a different level nice. So y'all remember the inbound

743
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 5: pass he threw to me earlier in the year.

744
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 3: It was a lot Yeah, three cords on the other

745
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 3: side of the court.

746
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 5: But that's one of the best passes I've ever seen

747
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 5: in my life.

748
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 1: I was in awe bro he threw that. He threw it.

749
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 4: Do that in a live bro on he can't even

750
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 4: do that on two K man.

751
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: Hey talked to me about Jamal Murray Man aka Glitch.

752
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: We had him on with us.

753
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 6: We talked to him and his nickname was Glitch. Yeah,

754
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 6: and we felt like, damn, this ship was one of

755
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 6: the code. It's the most appropriate nickname. Talk to me about.

756
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 6: Jamal Murray is just his game man when he's healthy

757
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 6: and right, what he brings to y'all team.

758
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 5: It's the mentality dog. He really got like a Kobe

759
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 5: type of mentality. He is focused, he's disciplined. He only

760
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 5: cares about who.

761
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: He eats, breathe sleeps all hoop. I mean, he got it.

762
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 5: He got his baby girl now, so you know, he's

763
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 5: a little bit more of a family man. But he's

764
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 5: Everything he does is like so just like concise, you

765
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,479
Speaker 5: know what I mean. And it's just it's nasty, bro.

766
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 5: The way he gets his buckets is nasty. Some big buckets, buckets,

767
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. It's like a tween tween

768
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 5: step back tween. You know nothing but that, you know

769
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 5: what I mean. So he's doing that all game long.

770
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 5: He's just a problem, bro. He's a problem on the

771
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 5: court just because he's so locked in mentally. And I

772
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 5: think that's what well he doesn't get enough credit for

773
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 5: why he doesn't get enough credit around the NBA, because

774
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 5: it's like it's the inner workings of Jamal that make

775
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 5: him so special, you know what I mean. It's not yeah,

776
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 5: sometimes he's gonna put up some godly numbers, but it's

777
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 5: like how he conducts himself and how he prepares for

778
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 5: the games and where he's at mentally in between here

779
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 5: he's like he's top two, you know what I mean,

780
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 5: top three in the league.

781
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: The talk before the season was, you know, Denver, they're

782
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 2: getting better, They're starting to be up at the one,

783
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: the two to three, you know what I'm saying of

784
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 2: the Western Conference to get it, but they just don't

785
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 2: get over the hunt. What made last year like, nah,

786
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 2: this is the year that were the number one team

787
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: in the West and we're gonna run through everybody and

788
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 2: go to the championship and compete for I think.

789
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,239
Speaker 5: We was healthy, you know, I come play a big

790
00:33:55,360 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 5: part and winning the championship. So like being healthy, huge,

791
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 5: huge advantage, and we had everything we needed case p myself.

792
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 5: We were on the defensive end, you know what I mean,

793
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:12,359
Speaker 5: locking shit. Then you had Brucey b and Jeff Green

794
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 5: coming off the bench, which is like solid IQ veterans

795
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 5: and dogs.

796
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 4: Coming off the bench.

797
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 5: You got MPJ who's one of the best shooters in

798
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 5: the game right now, just so you can't leave his body.

799
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 5: And then that gives Jamal and yoke. That gave him

800
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 5: space to run a two man game, you know what

801
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 5: I mean. So I think I thought we had everything

802
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 5: that we needed. Plus we had a young fellow, Christian Brown.

803
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 5: We had a rookie helping us too, man, So we

804
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 5: had everything we needed.

805
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 2: How was it just going just round for round? You know,

806
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 2: you had Minnesota first, then they had some hell of

807
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 2: a defensive matchup to the Sons, and then you run

808
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 2: to the Lakers like you had to guard from Anthony

809
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 2: Towns like he said to Kevin Durant, to Lebron Jimmy Buckers,

810
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 2: some Anthony Elvis like the matchups and spec sleep for

811
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 2: you had to be big for y'all to go through

812
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 2: them playoffs. I was the eighth rown was getting better

813
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,879
Speaker 2: and better and better, and but y'all stay solid.

814
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 4: In every round, just like he was talking about, just

815
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 4: trying to hold my own.

816
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,240
Speaker 5: You know, I mean, you're not gonna like stop players

817
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,320
Speaker 5: in the league, you know what I mean, especially superstars.

818
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:22,240
Speaker 4: That's a myth. If you're not you can't guard.

819
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 5: Really anybody one on one and just completely lock them down,

820
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 5: anybody really in this league. But I was just trying

821
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 5: to hold my own man guard my yard uh and Edwards,

822
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 5: Carl Towns, bron KD and Jimmy Butler, and then just

823
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 5: trying to do whatever I can just to make their

824
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 5: life difficult.

825
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 4: So at the end of the game, they're like, damn,

826
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 4: I was working.

827
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,760
Speaker 1: That group. Who for you, in particular, who the hardest

828
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: to guard?

829
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 6: M KD, Anthony Towns, lebron Jimmy Buckets, and Anthony Edwards.

830
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 5: I feel like Jimmy, really, Jimmy, Jimmy, I think he

831
00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 5: was a little bit out of gas towards the end

832
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 5: of just having to work so much. Yeah, he was

833
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 5: going crazy in the earlier around, like She's what, so

834
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 5: I think he was a little a little bit out

835
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 5: of gas towards of end. But I think just his

836
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 5: ability to uh kind of just work the game, you

837
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 5: know what I mean, and stay poised.

838
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 4: He has a little bit of everything. He can shoot

839
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 4: the track, you can shoot the.

840
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,359
Speaker 5: MIDI, he's always moving on offense, he's cutting, he does

841
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 5: all they little intangible things too.

842
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 4: And then after that would probably be Edwards boy. It's nice.

843
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, tell me how was it like from your personal perspective,

844
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,120

903
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 5: a lounge in Denver, and I'm in the car. I'm

904
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 5: basically I'm in the window of the car, like turn

905
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 5: it up. And then when I get in the car,

906
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 5: and then we're sitting on the way to the lounge

907
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:22,600

908
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,360
Speaker 4: Can't go anywhere. It's traffic.

909
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 5: I'm like, man, I'm way too lit right now to

910
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 5: just be sitting down. So I'm walking. It's only about

911
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 5: a mile away. I hopped out the car and just

912
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 5: started walking. All my friends was like, no, no, hell no,

Speaker 1: I walked.

00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 5: You could just see people's heads start turning like that,

916
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Like it was a double taking. Yeah,

917
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 5: the game shorts of everything. They were double taking. It

918
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 5: turned from like fifteen people to like thirty people to

919
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 5: like forty five, like like one hundred hundred and fifty people,

920
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 5: and it was just turning up. There's fireworks and stuff.

921
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 5: I feel like if I was a point guard, I

922
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 5: probably wouldn't have made it.

923
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 4: But I was a power for it. You know, it

924
00:39:58,360 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 4: was over here, you know what I mean. I was

Speaker 4: If I was a one or two, they would have

928
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 4: it would have been over Man.

929
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,080

Speaker 2: But how you see the city just turn transform into

933
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 2: this this masterpiece of just so many people. And when

934
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,799
Speaker 2: you've seen that clock wind down that oh it's over,

935
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 2: and you're looking over the family, you're looking at the confetti.

Speaker 5: put in, countless hours.

940
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 4: And times hours of high school.

00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 2: He don't get talked about as much, but I've been

1025
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 2: watching him since high school and he's been a dog

1026
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:30,800

00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 4: And Michael Porter, yeah, like.

1028
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: Just his mentality, his scoring, mentalitly how he can shoot

1029
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 2: the ball. And he got hurt, like this ain't the

1030
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 2: Michael Porter that we were about to see it. He

1031
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 2: used to be athletic dunking that thing as well as

1032
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:49,839
Speaker 2: getting them other buckets. But I feel like he don't

1033
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 2: really get enough credit for how good he actually is.

1034
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 2: And you know, we get the opportunity for somebody to

1035
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,360
Speaker 2: talk about talking about MPJ.

1036
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 5: First off, he wanted the best shooters that our game

1037
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 5: has ever seen. You when it come down to it

1038
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,320
Speaker 5: for real. You put him up there in a shooting

1039
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 5: competition with the greats, and as his career goes on,

1040
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 5: it will start to come around where it's like, Okay,

1041
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,879
Speaker 5: his shooting percentage is up there with shit, the Rays,

1042
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,919
Speaker 5: the Reggies, you know what I mean, whoever you stack

1043
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,800
Speaker 5: him with. He got one of the prettiest jump shots

1044
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 5: of all time, bro, all time, for real. And he's

1045
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 5: just young, you thinks score. But like Mike not even

1046
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 5: really supposed to be playing basketball right now, you know

1047
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 5: what I mean. That's like the amazing, astounding thing about it.

1048
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 5: Like Mike had back surgeries, like the doctor said he

1049
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 5: might never play again. So really everything that he doing

1050
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,879
Speaker 5: now is like, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Icing big

1051
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 5: shout out to Mike.

1052
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 1: Man.

1053
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 5: He don't get enough credit, man, because he's one of

1054
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 5: them dudes that can go get twenty two to twenty

1055
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 5: four game, twenty you know what I mean, twenty three,

1056
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 5: twenty four game, and he's actually had to, you know,

1057
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 5: play a role in his own right and he's not

1058
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 5: used to that. But listen when we were all on

1059
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 5: the floor and Mike is making threes just because the

1060
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 5: spacing is too crazy, he's six 'teen. He can shoot

1061
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 5: over the top of anybody and when he aggressive, Yeah,

1062
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 5: we're hard to beat.

1063
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 4: Like me and Q when we play.

1064
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 1: We're big on.

1065
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 2: Your teammates, the camaraderie of your teammates, going out to

1066
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 2: eat with your teammates, being over each other, house throwing

1067
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 2: events or whatever. But you decided to build a whole

1068
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 2: basically compoundersold teammate friendly where you can come and get

1069
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:40,759
Speaker 2: you something to eat, you can come and work on

1070
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 2: your game, you can come and live ways, you can

1071
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 2: come to sleep if you need to get some risk,

1072
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,240
Speaker 2: and you can come and lounge, and it's it's basically

1073
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 2: private to you and your teammates. And the designs like

1074
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 2: the people that you have put up across your gym

1075
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 2: and you creating that for them. And I feel like

1076
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 2: that's big. You see, most teams win when they have

1077
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 2: that type of camaraderie where they cheer with each other

1078
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 2: and be with each other all the time and it

1079
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 2: be a brotherhood. But tell us why you did that,

1080
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 2: and just tell us about it.

1081
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 5: The game is given so much to me and my family,

1082
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 5: you know, I wanted to do something to get back

1083
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 5: to the game, you know, to reinvest back into that.

1084
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 5: So you know, it's almost like a my spot's almost

1085
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 5: like a tribute to basketball, you know what I mean.

1086
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,959
Speaker 5: So I got the warehouse, I built the court first

1087
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,759
Speaker 5: and then build everything else around it. Put up like

1088
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 5: you know, I got Magic Michael and Bird and there,

1089
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 5: got Doctor J and there, and then I put up

1090
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 5: a bunch of other like banners just to like be

1091
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 5: surrounded by greatness, you know, and just make sure that,

1092
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 5: you know, if we have an off day, that the

1093
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 5: guys can come in and get some extra shots, they

1094
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,800
Speaker 5: could live, they could take care of their body, because

1095
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 5: it is a brotherhood, you know what I mean, It

1096
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 5: really is a brotherhood. And then I got like a

1097
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 5: almost kind of like a lounge just kind of like

1098
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 5: a like a cafe almost downtown in Denver. I just

1099
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:03,959
Speaker 5: needed to bring a little bit of sauce to the city.

1100
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:07,360
Speaker 4: Keep it a buck, you know.

1101
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 5: I just wanted something to do, yeah, I mean, and

1102
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 5: have a place that I feel comfortable and that I

1103
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 5: could bring my friends in that we could actually like

1104
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 5: have in there for yeah exactly, because you know, like

1105
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 5: if you go somewhere it's cool, but you don't know

1106
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 5: who's gonna be in there. You know who's gonna be

1107
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 5: like side eye in you.

1108
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?

1109
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 1: You probably like a bar lounge type.

1110
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of like a bar like bar lounge

1111
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 4: that's downtown.

1112
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 6: And I gotta salute you, right because I remember when

1113
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,879
Speaker 6: you first was doing this, like for those out there

1114
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 6: just just thinking like he did this before he signed

1115
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 6: this extension, you remember. I remember having a conversation because cuz,

1116
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 6: like yo, bro, like like.

1117
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 4: What are you doing work out? First?

1118
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,840
Speaker 6: Like I'm telling you, I was, you know, concerned, like

1119
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 6: you know, right way he shouldn't do that with his

1120
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 6: bread like like oh, and then it was like boom

1121
00:48:57,920 --> 00:48:59,879
Speaker 6: hit he got extended to be like okay, he cool,

1122
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 6: he cool, Like you know what I'm saying, did you know,

1123
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,800
Speaker 6: not knowing that the team would even come together like that,

1124
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 6: I was just concerned just from that standpoint.

1125
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,399
Speaker 1: I remember him like Couz Coud like, man, it's gonna

1126
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:09,760
Speaker 1: be straight.

1127
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,839
Speaker 6: Obviously it became legendary once it actually once you did

1128
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 6: it all out. But like I just know that, like

1129
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 6: that took a leap of faith in itself for you

1130
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,879
Speaker 6: to do something like that where you had just gotten

1131
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,719
Speaker 6: to a team you like finished a half season there

1132
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 6: and then decide to do.

1133
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 1: Something like that.

1134
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 6: So for me, it was dope to see everything work

1135
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 6: out and then, like you said, the finished product, you.

1136
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 1: Couldn't even imagine that, Like you'a got real life.

1137
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 6: My career joined up in there like that joint like

1138
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 6: stupid dope and super salute on that. And I know

1139
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 6: appreciate if nobody else them young boys on a team appreciated.

1140
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,600
Speaker 1: You know us o G. We're gonna watch it.

1141
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:49,280
Speaker 6: But the young boys they get to come in somewhere

1142
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 6: that's not the real team facility and still get a

1143
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 6: team facility type feel and treatment and access to whatever

1144
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 6: that was over there is over here.

1145
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 1: But I ain't gotta be like all up under that,

1146
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 1: like that's what's up right there.

1147
00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,719
Speaker 5: I gotta give you some mother already up you know

1148
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,239
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. That's really appreciate y'all looking at me too.

1149
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 5: I remember you was like, ah, yeah, I know.

1150
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 4: He was like damn it. I was like, man, that's cold.

1151
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 6: That's checking out in the videos. I definitely want to

1152
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 6: see that in real life. But like I was like, yo,

1153
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 6: that's you know, Like that was my first concern. But

1154
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 6: then it was just like this ship don't like real.

1155
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 2: Tell me about the because y'all lost Bruce, y'all lost

1156
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:36,320
Speaker 2: Jeff Green, But our young fellow Peyton Watson is getting

Speaker 4: And you got Ron stepping up? Was it?

1160
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 2: Because I always thought y'all was a deep team last year,

1161
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 2: But when y'all lost them, guys, I felt that y'all

1162
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,879
Speaker 2: had already had players on youall bench that can step

1163
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,279

1170
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, people, I got everything he needs to be great

1171
00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:16,440
Speaker 5: in this league too, You know what I mean? Six seven,

1172
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 5: six eight, long, athletic, great field for the game.

1173
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:21,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, it could jump out the gym.

1174
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 5: Yeah well yeah yeah, And it's just like just blocking shit,

1175
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 5: just whooping shit. Man. People trying to lay anything up

1176
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 5: around the Rims whooping it off the backboard. And then

1177
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 5: CB just a dog you know, Christen Brown just a

1178
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 5: dog man. He ain't play hall play all. Yeah, no

1179
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,319
Speaker 5: fear in him, you know what I mean, Like going

1180
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 5: at people, it's hard to make up for, Like the

1181
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:52,520
Speaker 5: experience that Jeff Bright even to the locker room and yeah,

1182
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 5: exactly knows what he's talking about, knows how to just

1183
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,239
Speaker 5: he's one of them dudes that was playing playing chess

1184
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,279
Speaker 5: while everybody else is playing checkers, you know. To me

1185
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:02,799
Speaker 5: and b B was another one of the dogs, it's

1186
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:04,719
Speaker 5: hard to make up for them. So I think as

1187
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,439
Speaker 5: the season go on, you're gonna start seeing the better

1188
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 5: Petent Washing and the better Christian Brown.

1189
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 4: And as they get more and more games.

1190
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,359
Speaker 5: Under their belt, they're gonna calm down and they're gonna

1191
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,800
Speaker 5: start to find their find the rhythm, find a groove,

1192
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:16,839
Speaker 5: and they're gonna start killing.

1193
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, because you gotta find the right speed.

1194
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 2: You get out there and you get the zooming light

1195
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:23,239
Speaker 2: speed together all you're going too slow, but you gotta

1196
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 2: find your speed.

1197
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 4: Of the game and how you work it.

1198
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 2: The facts your favorite dunk on so far in the

1199
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 2: league was one stands out the most.

1200
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 1: Of me like him, you got a lot of buys.

1201
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 1: You got a whole.

1202
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 4: He said, he it is a Christmas Day one was.

1203
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:43,879
Speaker 1: That the like damn that from the free throw line

1204
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:44,839
Speaker 1: when you almost fell out.

1205
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,600
Speaker 5: It was it was like we had a Christmas Day game.

1206
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 5: It's the first time I played on Christmas Day last year.

1207
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,359
Speaker 5: So I think we're up one and overtime the ball

1208
00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 5: come to me. I'm down the right side of the court, buddy,

1209
00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 5: trying to like figure out if he's going to take

1210
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 5: a charge, go back to your offrom like the day. Yeah, yeah,

1211
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 5: so at first they called a charge.

1212
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 6: Sh The coldest part of the dunk was not only

1213
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,760
Speaker 6: because like first of all, he took off from outside

1214
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 6: the lane, but it was one of them bitches that

1215
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,160
Speaker 6: he was still going up when he thanted.

1216
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,640
Speaker 1: He came with the left hand like almost there he

1217
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 1: fell over him. I say, God, damn see some of

1218
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 1: them thing like I always like to say, like, God

1219
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 1: did two things with me.

1220
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 6: He stopped me at six six sixty five, and he

1221
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,399
Speaker 6: stopped me with my house because I'd have been old,

1222
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 6: ignorant motherfucker. I'd have been doing like if I had

1223
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,920
Speaker 6: hops like him. You know you and I know I

1224
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:42,080
Speaker 6: would have been heard out here.

1225
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:43,360
Speaker 1: From trying to jump on people.

1226
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 6: And that's what that made me think of, Like when

1227
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,319
Speaker 6: you got hops like him pitch ip figure, then yes,

1228
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 6: I'm gonna just take off a reckless man and the goat.

1229
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 1: That's how he took up, like oh the eye, the rim.

1230
00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: I don't care what's.

1231
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 6: Under men, and I don't care about living because he

1232
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 6: landed almost wild, but like he was so athletic he

1233
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 6: was able to pull up.

1234
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:03,760

1345
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:13,560

1346

Speaker 2: bunch of teammates in in lond Though and in Denver, now,

1347
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:19,440
Speaker 2: who would be the four players that you build your

1348
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:20,320
Speaker 2: ultimate team with.

1349
00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 1: More places than that?

1350
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:25,080

00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 1: And out the day.

1353
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 2: Man who I played with, Yeah, who would you build

1354
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 2: a four? I like my team that I'm with, like

1355
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:36,200

1356
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1357
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 5: But I'll tell you, like I was thinking about this

1358
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,040
Speaker 5: the other day, like some of the most influential players

1359
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,080
Speaker 5: in my life and like first not in the league.

1360
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 5: It would have to be like Romar uh Goodie, Willie Green. Yeah,

1361
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:53,800
Speaker 5: you know I played with Willy Green. He was a

1362
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 5: good one.

1363
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 1: Man.

1364
00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 5: Who else Kobe like Kobe, like Kobe is full and

1365
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 5: and like magic. Yes, yeah, in the league, I think

1366
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 5: like some of the people that probably had the biggest

1367
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 5: impact on my career.

1368
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 4: Yeah that's Drew, good for your Yeah, still in the NBA.

1369
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 5: The guys that probably had the most biggest impact on

1370
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 5: my career, Nakola Jokic, you know what I mean? That

1371
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 5: would man changed my whole. Yeah, he changed my whole.

1372
01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:28,280
Speaker 5: I Q on basketball, how you approach the game and

1373
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 5: how you work towards the game. Yea, how you see

1374
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 5: the game. I think Kawhi Kawhi London, we spent a

1375
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 5: little bit of time last summer together just like kind

1376
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,480
Speaker 5: of working out being a gym is another one that's

1377
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:42,800
Speaker 5: like changed my approach on how to like work the game.

1378
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 5: Kyrie just been talking to him back and forth. Paul George,

1379
01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 5: you know he would he was as cool as hell,

1380
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 5: you know what I mean from when it's just like

1381
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 5: his game smooth. Yeah, he came out to Orlando when

1382
01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 5: I was still working in Orlando. It was all that

1383
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 5: I was gonna take care of the tab for him

1384
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 5: and his table. He had already taken care of it

1385
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 5: for me and my table. Yeah, school Man Draymond. So

1386
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 5: I think them five right there that they probably the

1387
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:16,000
Speaker 5: most influential people in my game in my career thus far.

1388
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 5: And there like probably like Steph Curry, you know what

1389
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 5: I mean, just seeing a little light skinned motherfucker running around,

1390
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:23,480
Speaker 5: shut it up.

01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 4: waf of Mike Malone.

01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:09,520
Speaker 1: That's dope.

1475
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:13,000
Speaker 6: This is my guy. We go back to Detroit. I

1476
01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 6: want you to talk about KCP man. I feel like

1477
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:17,960
Speaker 6: he one of the most underrated people players in the

1478
01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 6: league for what he brings to a team right up.

1479
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,520
Speaker 6: And I feel like only the team and the teammates

1480
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,160
Speaker 6: and the players that he's doing it for really really

1481
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,000
Speaker 6: have a real true understanding how valuable and what he

1482
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,480
Speaker 6: truly brings. Like I watched him when they were in Detroit.

1483
01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 6: He's a two guard who constantly is guarding whoever it

1484
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:38,720
Speaker 6: is one through three the best perimeter.

1485
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 1: He got them.

1486
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 6: I don't care if it's Steph I don't care if

1487
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 6: it's Anthony Edwards. I don't care if it's Lebron. I

1488
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:45,160
Speaker 6: don't care who you talking about. He guarded one of

1489
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:47,080
Speaker 6: them players unless like with you, he got a player

1490
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:48,760
Speaker 6: like you to could guard Lebron. But other than that

1491
01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:50,920
Speaker 6: when he was with us in Detroit, I watched him

1492
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 6: every year since we've been in Detroit.

1493
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,000
Speaker 1: He's one of the league leaders.

1494
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 6: And them dudes that run all of the miles when

1495
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:58,000
Speaker 6: they show who ran the most miles in the league

1496
01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 6: this year, constantly at the top, at the top of

1497
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,080
Speaker 6: the minutes per game and all of that, and just

1498
01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 6: talk about him as a teammate by what he brings,

1499
01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:07,320
Speaker 6: because I feel like he's easily one of the most

1500
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:11,080
Speaker 6: underrated people. And no secret that he's been a part

1501
01:06:11,120 --> 01:06:13,440
Speaker 6: of a couple of championship one with the Lakers, one

1502
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,600
Speaker 6: with y'all, and he was integral in both of them.

1503
01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 1: He was you don't get them without him, you know

1504
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:18,000
Speaker 1: what I'm saying.

1505
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:25,600
Speaker 5: I feel like, Yeah, KCP Cantavious Cold Piece. He said

1506
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:30,920
Speaker 5: they always KCP stand for keep Championship Players. Lakers was

1507
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:34,960
Speaker 5: never supposed to let him go, straight up, never keep

1508
01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:35,920
Speaker 5: championship players.

1509
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 4: Never supposed to let him go.

1510
01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:39,400
Speaker 5: I'm glad they did because he's a huge part of

1511
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 5: the reason why we won a championship because he knew

1512
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:42,600
Speaker 5: how to do it.

1513
01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,080
Speaker 4: You know, he knew how to accept that played the

1514
01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:45,600
Speaker 4: right world.

1515
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, bro, I thought I was good at defense until

1516
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 5: I saw KCP play defense. He blowing up screens, He's

1517
01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:57,280
Speaker 5: getting deflections, steals. You can't turn around and fade on KCP.

1518
01:06:57,440 --> 01:06:58,480
Speaker 5: He's stripping that ship down.

1519
01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 1: Low your hands, bro, This generation don't fight and get

1520
01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:03,720

1522
01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 6: the offensive foul because he getting over because they're not
