Speaker 2: go to Charlotte. I wanted to get drafted by Charlotte.

27
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,720

29
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,120

00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 3: Cool.

00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 2: I played my whole first year, we went it down contest,

34
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 2: and then Adidas ripped my contract up right after that,

35
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 2: said we're gonna give you a new and we're gonna

36
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,280

38
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,760

40
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: about it because people don't understand this. You killed Summer

41
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: League to get that fact, you had to go crazy

42
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: the Summer League. Now, so many people have gotten a

43
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: shoe deal from killing in the summer So you know

44
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: how that that Vaga didn't get that I didn't killing

45
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: no summer league. No, I stayed on the bench and

46
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: od rookie, you didn't play right. So don't worry about

47
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,800

Speaker 3: I forgot.

53
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: I think it's like the threes of the fours, like

00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,559
Speaker 2: he was. It was those there was something some low tops,

55
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: but it's come the Didas's first of all, Theda has

56
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: come a long way since that time, absolute first and foremost.

57
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 2: But to see them wearing my shoes, honestly, it's crazy

58
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 2: to me, Like, you know, it's I know, I've been

59
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: in the league seven years. I feel like I've been

60
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: in the league for a while, but it's not. I

61
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: don't feel like that far removed from from Louisville, you

62
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, from where it first started. So

63
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 2: to come here now to be watching the game seeing

64
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 2: them wear my shoes. Some of the guys on the

65
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 2: team calling me asked me, like yo, Like can I

67
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,800

Speaker 2: got big feet though, so like you know what's ours?

79
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 2: You were fifteen? All you out of pocket? You can't? Yeah,

80
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 2: this life, I probably say those this new Jerry Jerry

81
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 2: Lenzo Fear of God collection as far he got some,

82
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: he got some, he got some ship. So I think

83
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: that's probably probably my favorite.

84
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,359
Speaker 1: All right, So what was that moment life for you

85
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: in the creation process side to Camax and my dog

86
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: creating that first one? How was that process because you

87
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: was like finding your way in the league, is still

88
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: doing it at the same time. But how was that

89
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: process making the first one?

90
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: I feel like everybody's different, you know, I've talked to

91
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: different guys who have had different shoots from different brands

92
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: and how they go about it. For me, my process

93
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: is make the shoot, show me the shoot, and I

94
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: say yes or no, Like it's real simple, like I

95
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 2: ain't got I'm not the one to be like I

96
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 2: want the webbing on this to look like that. I

97
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: ain't want to be like, as long as long as

98
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 2: my ankles feel cool and I'm an, I think it

99
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 2: looks good, like that's fine. So you know, like I said,

100
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: for the first one, the first one was kind of

101
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: sped up because everything was so last minute. After it

102
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: was kind of like quick. But the once you got

103
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: the two, three, four, now you're playing a year in advance,

104
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: it became it became a whole process. It became like

105
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 2: we're doing three different segments of it. It's like, you know,

106
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 2: we're doing one in August, then we're doing one in January,

107
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 2: then we're doing one Like you know what I'm saying,

108
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: just kind of going over it, making little tweaks here

109
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: and there about what I like and what I don't like.

110
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: But it's a it's a process, and it's you get

111
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: as much as you put into it. Though, if you

112
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 2: don't want to, if you don't care, if you don't

113
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: want it, you ain't gonna put out a good product.

114
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: But I notice that gratification when you look on Instagram,

115
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: we see that you kids rocking your shoe. Now I

116
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: gotta ask you how I feel with you in the

117
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: league and somebody rocking your shoe and they play against you.

118
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 3: I know you got to try to.

119
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 2: I would.

120
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be rocking your shoe. I'm playing against you,

121
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 1: but you signed me.

122
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 3: I'll rock.

123
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: I'm playing the Big Three just unless I feel like

124
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 2: you have to you kind of you have. First of all,

125
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: you have to go after. You got to bust the

126
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: ass you gott at least you know what I'm saying

127
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: off rip, But in the second token, I'm like, I'm

128
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: a dude. That's like man, that's love. Like I'm the same.

129
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 2: I'm not one to be like you know how niggas

130
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 2: in the league are, like I could curse, Like you

131
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 2: get to a point where you so far removed from

132
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: that childhood like you know Jeff, like he was a

133
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 2: childhood kid dreaming about being on this stage, you know,

134
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 2: so I'll never lose that aspect of it too. So like, yeah,

135
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: I want to come at you, I want to drop forty,

136
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: but the same token, it's like the fact that you're

137
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 2: wearing my shoes. I grew up trying to be like this,

138
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 2: trying to be Donovan Mitchell, you know what I'm saying.

139
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 2: So I always forever cherish that, and I always I

140
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 2: show I appreciate it. But you know, there are few

141
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 2: guys out there always my former teammates always wear my

142
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 2: shoes like they always ask me. So I appreciate them,

143
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 2: but you know, I definitely have to try to give

144
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 2: them forty at least.

145
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you gotta gotta kill him one time. Let

146
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: them know to this, and then you can come on

147
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: Team down, a team done. You know what I'm saying.

148
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: That's a new line popping out. You know what I'm saying.

149
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: How that feel? And now you move you know you

150
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: shoe six. Now you got the own brand under shoe six.

151
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: It's going crazy.

152
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 2: So we honestly, man, like I said said, I'm gonna

153
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 2: keep repeating myself, but this it's just crazy to me,

154
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? That's it never feels real

155
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: when I do these interviews, I do these events, I

00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 2: see my shoe, I see people talking to me about it,

162
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: are saying. But the biggest thing, like I said to you,

163
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: is how you get what you put into it? You

188
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 2: the community, you know what I'm saying. And I think

189
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 2: that's one of my my biggest things in understanding that

190
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 2: we're still trying to find ways and the league's done

191
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 2: a good job with the PA, We've done a good

192
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 2: job of putting them on. It all starts showing case

193
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: in the games, but you know, continuing to fund and

196
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,679
Speaker 2: that's that's really that's really what that's where it starts.

197
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 2: You know, that's the least I feel like that's the

198
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 2: least we can do as athletes, Like we got that

199
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,400

222
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: best out of you, Like you know what I'm saying, Like, yeah,

223
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 2: he talked, he talks and all that, but like as

224
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 2: a competitor, like that's what you want, Like you want

225
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 2: to go against you know, you know a guy like him,

226
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So I'll say he's probably

227
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 2: number one for show just because of the energy he brings.

228
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: Is James close to James up there?

229
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 3: For sure?

230
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 2: I been. I played James twice in the playoffs two

231
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: years in a row, so I feel like I played

232
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 2: him a bunch. We done lost twice too, But.

233
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 3: I remember y'all was going behind him. I called him

234
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 3: about that, bro, that ain't it?

235
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 2: I forgot you had, Quinn, That ain't it? Bro? That

236
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: that's what that one, that one that we did we needed?

237
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 2: Uh we did? You've seen me lost for one?

238
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 3: I said that one.

239
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 2: That one is. I would say James up there too,

240
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 2: for sure. But I think James and are definitely the

241
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: two too. Yeah, definitely dang for sure.

242
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: And what's crazy now, Like y'all killing right now, y'all

243
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: going crazy absolutely right now under the radar, which is

244
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: crazyest on the radar, but shopping going crazy large part

245
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: because obviously you've been doing your name.

246
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 3: Man. How you feeling about the season, Man.

247
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 2: I'm excited. I think a lot of it under the

248
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 2: radar has to do with how we you know, we

249
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 2: didn't really do shit in the playoffs last year, you

250
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 2: know what I mean? You know how that go, Like

251
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:35,719
Speaker 2: we didn't handle business, you know what I'm saying, Like

252
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: we got we got embarrassed, to be honest with you, you

253
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 2: know what I mean. So that kind of carries with

254
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 2: you into that next year until you do something about it.

255
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,959
Speaker 2: So shit, we can go eighty two and O. I

256
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 2: don't think we get the credit we deserve just because

257
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 2: that's just all that matters in this is the playoffs,

258
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So for us not getting

259
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 2: too hyped, like understanding like this is what we do,

260
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: that's what we expect of ourselves. It's like understanding we're

261
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 2: trying to build like yes, it's all star break, you

262
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 2: know what I mean. It's great, like we're playing, well,

263
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 2: we're playing, and we should be happier for that success.

264
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: But the same token, we're not surprised at what we do,

265
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 2: like continue to build upon that. Soit then April May

266
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 2: June comes around you know, un handle business for sure.

267
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: Now it's a five twin should be regressive. Planning to

268
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: ask you a couple of questions how we would Obviously

269
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You came in the league

270
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: going crazy, But who was that first match show? Were

271
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: just like, damn, like this is how they do this

272
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: every single night in the league. Like maybe not even

273
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: a marquete name, but at one party he was like, oh,

274
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: I didn't even know he was like this.

275
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 2: Man, I'd probably say Drew Holiday.

276
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: Damn.

277
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 2: They mentioned a lot through Holiday for the show. I

278
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 2: was just like, and I never forget my assistant coach

279
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,719
Speaker 2: at the time, Johnny Bryant. He was like and lace

280
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: him up like it's motherfucker like he don't play And

281
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, man, whatever, I had forty the

282
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 2: first time he played them, So I'm thinking that's how

283
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be. Like digging this sweet he going

284
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 2: under on screens, you know what I mean. They don't

285
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 2: know what the you know what I'm saying. And after that,

286
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 2: I think we play in New Orleans, just a New Orleans.

287
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 2: You know who else is up there too? Aby Bradley

288
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 2: when he was in.

289
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 3: Uh Detroit, I'm still having nightmare.

290
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: Who are you taking though?

291
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: Better defender? Real ship?

292
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 2: Who you who you got depends on what I'm trying

293
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 2: to what I'm trying to guard your buckets. I ain't

294
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: gonna lie. It's a true story. I probably every every

295
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 2: retire right, Yeah, he's done. Alright, so I can say this.

296
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: We're playing in Detroit and it's probably a film on

297
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 2: this too. I'm the point guard at the time. I

298
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: don't know how to play it. My ball handling really

299
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 2: ain't like that. I had to stop bringing the ball

300
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 2: up the court because he was on the floor understop.

301
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 2: I don't take that ever. I've never I've never felt

302
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 2: like that with anybody else in the league. So I

303
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: got to get it to Avery, probably because he got

304
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 2: that saying because once you get the half court, like

305
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 2: you know, the half court line here, get you you

306
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 2: just you ain't going nowhere. Like he quick. He's strong,

307
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 2: but I would say probably every Bradley for sure.

308
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 3: What's crazy is him?

309
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: Jordan Crawford and other people said he was like, He's like,

310
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: it don't matter how good you dribble, it don't turn

311
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: you in every possession.

312
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: And I ain't have the confidence in my handle like

313
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: this my first year in the league. It's my handle,

314
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 2: Like I'm like, I'm used to coming off screens, coming

315
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: out different things, but I'm not really like if you

316
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 2: picked me up full court at this time, it's like,

317
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: oh shit, like I don't really know what I'm doing

318
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 2: doing like this looking at you like yeah he was.

319
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 3: He wouldn't do that now though, you know what it

320
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 3: is now.

321
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: I always wanted to ask you about your bubble moment,

322
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: like I know we don't got that much time, but

323
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 1: but you did. In the bubble, you and Murray was

324
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 1: going back and forth. So that that was crazy.

325
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 2: No, that was that for me was really the emergence

326
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 2: of myself, like taking that step, you know what I mean,

327
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 2: Like I had a great rookie year in the playoffs,

328
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 2: I would be okay, see whatever, like all that happened

329
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 2: then the second year whatever. But that year for me,

330
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 2: like yes, scoring outbursts and all that that was It

331
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: was a big part of that. But like it was

332
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 2: really where I felt in control of myself, like all right, cool,

333
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 2: now I'm seeing situations. I understand the situation. I'm understanding

334
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: the blitz. You know, I had fifty seven game one,

335
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 2: but people don't know. I only had like twenty in

336
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 2: game two we won by thirty, but they were like,

337
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 2: all right, fuck it, he not scoring. And for me

338
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 2: like to be able to make that adjustment from game

339
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: one in the game too and be like, all right, bet,

340
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 2: I don't need to score. I can get it off.

341
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: And then we went by thirty. The ultimately we lose.

342
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 2: We lose a series, but like that for me really

343
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 2: unlocked a lot of shit for me mentally. But it game,

344
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 2: it honestly came to a point where mall was scored.

345
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 2: I'd be like, I bet, I gotta score, like it

346
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 2: became one of one and I can't see each other

347
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 2: out and like everybody else had to figure it out,

348
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,439
Speaker 2: like you score, I'm scoring.

349
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,640

350

351
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,360
