We say good morning to our radio 20 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: affiliates around the country. Mclovin poll question for the first hour, 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: which NFL team feels like it's in the worst shape. 22 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: We have a new leader. Pauli's Chicago Bears the w Yeah, 23 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: you guys won. Yeah, But we looked at the Giant schedule. 24 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: The Giants could start out oh in ten and it 25 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: feels like this is a make or break year for 26 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: a couple of players, and maybe they're GM Dave Gettleman. 27 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: Ring chasing seems to have a negative connotation in the 28 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: world of sports, because we want our athletes to go 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: after championships with everything they have. We like it when 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: they stay with the team that drafted them. But if 31 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: you join an established team late in your career, there 32 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: seems to be a little bit of judgment. You know, 33 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: Richard Sherman already has his Super Bowl ring. He won 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: that with Seattle, but he's joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 35 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: For Sherman, it's a no brainer. The NBA has a 36 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: lot of ring chasing going on. If you look the 37 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: entire twenty twelve NBA All Star Team has joined either 38 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: the Lakers or the Nets. Now I'm exaggerating a little 39 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,679 Speaker 1: bit here, but guys like Blake Griffin, LaMarcus Aldridge, Paul 40 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: millsap DeAndre Jordan, Rajon Rondo Dwight Howard. And it doesn't 41 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: always work out. We remember two thousand and three when 42 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,399 Speaker 1: Carl Malone and Gary Payton joined the Lakers. That was disappointing. 43 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: But if the strategy ends up in a championship parade, 44 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: I don't think Richard Sherman's going to have a problem 45 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: with this. I don't think Blake Griffin, LaMarcus Aldridge, Paul 46 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: millsap DeAndre Jordan, Dwight Howard are going to have a 47 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: problem with it either. Going out a winner, that's the 48 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: ultimate strategy for any professional athlete. But you start to 49 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: look at this and James Harden sat down with The 50 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: mother Ship yesterday and he was interviewed by Malika Andrews, 51 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: and I was just curious that he's got free agency 52 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: after this next season. This is an important season for 53 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: James Harden to stay in Brooklyn. Here is a portion 54 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 1: of that interview with Malika Andrews and James Harden. I 55 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: think the core some my career. I've never been a 56 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: free agent before, so I've always just been you know, 57 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 1: a lawyer and just sign it, you know, a contract 58 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: extension and just being there being there, being there. I 59 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: just want to take my time with it. It's gonna 60 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: be very, very difficult to leave here, but or even 61 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: to leave Kevin during and Kyrie Irving. You know, but 62 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: I think this season, I just want to focus on 63 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: winning a championship and everything else will work yourself out. 64 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: He says he's never been a free agent, and I 65 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: wonder if you win a championship, are you more likely 66 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: or less likely to leave the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets 67 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: gave up four first round picks. Now you can say, well, 68 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: they would be later in the first round, so that's 69 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: not a big deal to get somebody like James Harden. 70 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: If Brooklyn can't trade Kyrie Irving? Are they going to 71 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: let James Harden go? If they win a championship here? 72 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: Can you keep everybody who you have on that roster? 73 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: And you know, with James Harden, I don't know him. 74 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: I think we've had him on maybe once, maybe twice, 75 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: but I don't know anybody who is friends with him 76 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: or in his inner circle. So I don't want to 77 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: speak on his behalf other than I'm curious if you 78 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: win that championship, it just feels like, okay, I can exhale. 79 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: You know, Kevin Durant, Hey, you can criticize me all 80 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: you want. I'm going to win a couple of titles 81 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: and then I can move on. Because nobody's saying, hey, Katie, 82 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: when you're gonna win another title. We say that about Lebron. 83 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: We don't say that about Kevin Durant. We don't hold 84 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: Kevin Durant to the same standard that we do with Lebron, 85 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: even though I hear it constantly. Hey, you keep saying 86 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: Lebron's best player in the game, it's kd Okay, then 87 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: we should expect Katie to win the championship this year, right, 88 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: because that's what we do with Lebron every single year, 89 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: and last I looked, Lebron usually gets to an NBA finals. 90 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: Kadie's a wonderful player, but I don't think we hold 91 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: him to the same standard. Now you have James Harden, 92 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: you have Kyrie Irving. They're stuck with Kyrie James Harden. 93 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how he's wired. You know, 94 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: you go from being the sixth man at Oklahoma City 95 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: where he's averaging I think sixteen and a half points 96 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: a game, and then he got his chance, got his 97 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: chance to be the star of the Houston Rockets, and 98 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: then he changed basketball. Now he's with the Nets. Who's 99 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: going to get credit for winning this championship? Now you 100 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: might say, well, they all will, and it doesn't work 101 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: that way. There's jealousies. I mean, we see this Belichick 102 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: and Brady, Shack and Kobe. I mean, it happens where 103 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: you go. God, don't you just you're just part of 104 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: a championship. Who cares if you get the credit? You know, 105 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: it's like a rock band. You know you're all in 106 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: it together, but hey, who wrote the song? Who cares? 107 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: Who sings the song? You know, these things happen. Do 108 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: I think James Harden ends his career in Brooklyn? I don't. 109 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: Could I see him going someplace else and maybe putting 110 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: up you know, thirty thirty five a gang again. I 111 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: do Kde and Kyrie are buddies. I don't know about 112 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: James Harden. I don't know where he fits in in 113 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 1: that relationship, but I think he's there to win a 114 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: championship and then maybe move on. Speaking of Brady and Belichick, 115 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: Belichick had another press conference. This is how he started 116 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: his press conference, which I thought showed a little sense 117 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: of humor. Laren, what's going on kind of stories this week. Okay, 118 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: I mean that's that's not a bad introductory offer. Nice 119 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: opener there. And then uh, Belichick was asked some questions 120 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: about facing Tom Brady. Well, would you consider Tom a 121 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:48,119 Speaker 1: tough quarterback to defend? And it's so wide defend. Consider 122 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: him a tough quarterback to defend? Is that the question? Yeah, 123 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: it's just as tough as any quarterback there is or 124 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: ever has been. Enough set and his numbers are incredible. 125 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: He's about to pass the all time passing record. He's 126 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: done more than any other player at that position in 127 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: whatever measurement you want to take. Its yards, completions, touchdowns, championships, 128 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: you know, you name us to put anything out there 129 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: you want. I can't get any tougher than him. Okay, 130 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: it's it's phrased in an unfortunate way because if you 131 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: say what makes Tom tough to defend? Then I don't 132 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: get a yes, no, yes, Okay, terrible question. However, look 133 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: at how much that reporter got Bill Belichick to speak 134 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: on Tom Brady. Well, you could still get that from him, 135 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: I think without him going what like he basically says, 136 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: what a stupid question? Now he does give you a 137 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: lengthy answer, but I think he's trying to make you 138 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: seem even the question seems even correct. However, she was 139 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: able to get that out of him, whereas normally he 140 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: would just be like he would have stopped at is 141 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: that really the question? But if you say what makes 142 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: Brady so tough to defend? Now, I cast to say something, 143 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: and he might say the same thing. Look, Callie prepares. 144 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: You know, he's won all these big games. You can't 145 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: throw anything at him that you know hasn't already seen. 146 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you may not get a juicy SoundBite from him. 147 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: I just wouldn't want Belichick to kind of dismiss my 148 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: question as being stupid. Yeah, Pully, it was a horribly 149 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: phrased question, like you said. I think Belichick snapped back 150 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: just a touch at it because he's incredulous that a 151 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: question would be asked like that, And then he decided 152 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: to let the reporter off the hook and give a 153 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: full answer to kind of be nice at the backside 154 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: of him. Belichick was asked about not meeting with Tom 155 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: Brady in person when Brady was leaving the Patriots, so 156 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: it was reported this morning that he preferred to speak 157 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: over the poem of Tom when he delivered the dow 158 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: to CEP leaving the organization in March to twenty money 159 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: and didn't want to meet in person, was hisctor. Yeah, yeah, no, 160 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: that's not true. And I mean I heard a few 161 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: things about you know, this book and sounds like it's 162 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, second, third and fourth hand comments. 163 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: So but I'm not going to get into that. I'm 164 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: gonna focus on this game and try to prepare for 165 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: the books. He at least acknowledges that the book is 166 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: out because he could have and he took a shot 167 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: at it. But I'm still Let's say Bill Belichick had 168 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: a legitimate reason why he couldn't meet with Tom Brady 169 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: that night when Brady had met with Robert Kraft, and 170 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: that Belichick wasn't able to Let's just say that that 171 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: is true, and that Bill had a legitimate reason why 172 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: didn't you meet after that at some point just to say, hey, 173 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: you know what, we spent twenty plus years together and 174 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: don't you think you Brady is Brady doesn't want to 175 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: play for you anymore, but he was willing to meet 176 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: with you. And that's why when people say, oh, you know, 177 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: when this is all said, and done. You know Bill 178 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: and Tom are going to get together, and I go, no, 179 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: they're not. No, this is a business relationship. But Brady 180 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: was going to make it personal to meet with Belichick 181 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: to say thank you, which is what he did with 182 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft. That's what surprising is, you know, Bill just saying, 183 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't want to talk about it 184 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: at second third hand? No, Bill, why didn't Why couldn't 185 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: you meet with Tom Brady that night? That's all? Hey? 186 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: Bill wanted to talk over the phone instead of Bill 187 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: had to talk over the phone because he was someplace else, 188 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: which could have happened and doesn't mean anything. Probably not. 189 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: I mean I see what the relationship is as been 190 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: and will probably always be. Do I think that they 191 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: sit down and do a thirty for thirty? Probably not, 192 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: because that's not what Bill does. Tom would sit down, 193 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: I'm guessing. But I mean, I give credit to Brady. Hey, 194 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to reach out to the two guys who 195 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: were instrumental, influential in my success here in New England 196 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: and say thank you, But I'm going to play for 197 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: somebody else. That's all. Yeah, seton. But what's funny about 198 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: this story, though, is that Bill Belichick just said it's 199 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: not true, but it's going to remain fact for the 200 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: rest of time because somebody wrote it in a book 201 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: and everybody believes it. Okay, but they didn't meet in person, 202 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: and Brady wanted to meet in person because he met 203 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: he met Robert Kraft in person. Why didn't they meet 204 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 1: in person? Belichick said, let's talk over the phone. Now 205 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: there's some truth in there that Belichick didn't want to 206 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: meet with him face to face, that he said let's 207 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: talk over the phone. So he just lied. Then Bill 208 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 1: Belichick lied to the press probably, I mean, wouldn't be 209 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: the first time, but you know, he he looks bad, 210 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: so he might just say, you know, on second third hand, 211 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, okay, But why didn't you meet with him? 212 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: That's what I'm curious about. This is a guy you've 213 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: been you've spent twenty years. He made you the greatest 214 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: coach in NFL history, and you don't want to meet 215 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: with him. That that's been the report that he didn't 216 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: want to meet with him face to face. He said, 217 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: let's talk over the phone. Even after that, you didn't 218 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: want to meet with him, sit down with him, say 219 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: thank you. He wanted to say thank you to you. 220 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: I just think I think Belichick comes off as it's 221 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 1: very callous here and petty, Yes, Paulli, he's probably busy 222 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 1: watching Titans film, you know, that special Team to the Titans. 223 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: He was breaking it down, or he's in narragans whatever 224 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: and they're talking to him. The photo shoot could have yeah, yeah, yeah, 225 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 1: I agree with boy. I think Belichick's girlfriend runs a 226 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 1: show in the offseason. He was who knows. I mean, 227 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: there is a lot of gray area there. Maybe he 228 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: had something to do. I don't know. Yeah, but if 229 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: he says that, then it lets him off the hook, 230 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: like you can't be bothered by the question if you 231 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: don't come up with a reason that the media then goes, oh, okay, 232 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: it makes sense. He said, let's talk over the phone. 233 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft met with Tom in person, and Tom wanted 234 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: to meet with Belichick, reportedly to say goodbye and so yeah, 235 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: it's time. So what he says, it's not true. Should 236 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: someone have followed up in the press? Grows said, oh, 237 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: so you did meet with him in person, and then 238 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: he would say, no, we didn't get a chance to. 239 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: And then you follow obviously with what you just said 240 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: It's like, why would you not make time to see 241 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: him in person after all these years and all these rings. Yeah, 242 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: So the reporters in that room are so ptsd written 243 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: that they say things like, do you think Tom Brady's 244 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: good at being playing quarterback? I'll hang up and listen. 245 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: Do you enjoy winning Super Bowls? I couldn't imagine going 246 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: to those press conferences? Yeah? Are you excited for the 247 00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: game today? Yeah? Are you? Are you looking forward to 248 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: the game? Was Rob Gronkowski good at tight end's good? 249 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 1: You want to continue to talk about that? I think 250 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: Jimmy Jimmerson would do a great job if he was 251 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: going to be in that prescottins. Jimmy Jimmerson, you got 252 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 1: a question for me? See, that's actually the question is 253 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: that Do I have a question?

Well, 305 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: I like what you and your wife have done with 306 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: the house. There. Whose room are you in? I'm in 307 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: my fourteen year old son's Walkers room. This is definitely 308 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 1: new to me constructed in the house, so I had 309 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: to kind of move around a little bit. What's the 310 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 1: coolest thing in your son's room? It's probably the shoes. 311 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: He's got a box of shoes stacked, so all his 312 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: favorite shoes are in his room, so you know they're sneaker, adds. 313 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 1: So I'm going to guess he's got a lot of 314 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: air Jordan's in there. Yeah, he definitely does. With the 315 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: problem Dad is he's fourteen, Like he's got so many 316 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: shoes he can't wear it, you know. So I find 317 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: myself always trying to, you know, figure out a friend 318 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: or founding them to give him away. And they're really 319 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: nice sneakers. So first wore a problem. I guess did 320 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: you ever get a pair of shoes from Jordan himself 321 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 1: from the company? Yes, but not well actually, let me 322 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 1: let me refrain. Like I've been to his house in Jupiter, 323 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: and you know, you when you walk to his house, 324 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: you go into when you're coming in, there's a transitionary 325 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: where the garage is and he's got a closet with 326 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: all these golf shoes in there. And you know, Jordan 327 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: wears a size thirteen, so you know I had to 328 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: squeeze in some up I had golf shoes. Now did 329 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: you say, can I have a pair of your golf shoes? Mike? Um? 330 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: I did? You know? Without any embarrassment, because there were 331 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: shoes that nobody else had or ever seen before. This 332 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: was you know, now you can go online and you 333 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: can find a lot of Jordan golf steaterers, but if 334 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: you go back about six seven years, he's making all 335 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 1: these shoes that have that are basketball shoes, running shoes 336 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: that are have golf soles on them. So nobody'd ever 337 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 1: seen him before. So I was like, I gotta have 338 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: the shoes, and so I didn't wear I stuck my 339 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: foot foot in there no side squeezing into thirteen. Okay, 340 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: if you go into Jordan's house, do you know that 341 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: the greatest basketball player of all time lives there? Yes? Yes, 342 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: And how can you tell? Well, I mean there's segments 343 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: of the house that I should say that you can tell, 344 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: but for the most part, when you walk in, you 345 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: don't know. Okay, you know, you know so when you 346 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: you're in certain parts of it, But for the most part, 347 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: it's pretty pretty non descripts. It's pretty pretty grandiose, which 348 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 1: you know, he's got so many rooms, which is fascinating. 349 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: It's kind of walking through it. Okay, what's the coolest 350 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: thing you saw in Jordan's house? You know, just you 351 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: know the way he lives kind of outside in the back, 352 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: you know, so he could put the screen down so 353 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: he can protect it from the mosquito. So he's sitting 354 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: outside always, you know, watching games, watching TV and smoking 355 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: a cigar. Yeah, yeah, human door sitting right there. So 356 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: it's such a cool space. And you know, I want 357 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: to try to create that in my home, right, you know, 358 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: in Florida, you gotta live that way. You got to 359 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: have a space outdoors where you can watch TV. On Sundays, 360 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: and obviously at the evening times. I remember talking to 361 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: you about this if you did a sequel with Spike 362 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 1: Lee on He Got Game, and I thought that you 363 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: and Spike were talking about the possibility of maybe kind 364 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: of revisiting this with Zion Williamson. Is there any traction 365 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 1: on that. Well, we have talked with several younger players, 366 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: including women, because there's definitely a dynamic there. If you 367 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 1: think about since nineteen ninety eight when the movie He 368 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 1: Got Game came out, there's been so many storylines, you know, 369 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: in the last you know under you know, twenty three, 370 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: twenty four years, and so there's so many different ways 371 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: that we could take this. But I think the one 372 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: caveat for us, Spike and I we talked about every time, 373 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: is making sure trying to figure out a way to 374 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: get Denzel involved, because I think until Equalizer two he 375 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: was against doing sequels, you know, So then Equaliza two 376 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: came out, so we're like, we have a chance. So 377 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: I think that's the main thing is to get him excited, 378 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: to get him on board so we could uh, because 379 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: it's just not the same if he wasn't or it 380 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: didn't have something to do with the movie with the 381 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: part part two. I like the girl aspect of this. 382 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: I mean if w NBA name, image, likeness, like it 383 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: just feels like, Um, there's a lot of different things 384 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: you could explore in something like that now and then 385 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: having a woman or you know, a female was the 386 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 1: lead would be pretty cool. Yeah. And there's if you 387 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: think about sports still, the story of sport can still 388 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: be told to a female perspective. There's been so many 389 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: great stories with Renee Montgomery and UH in Atlanta and 390 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: now have ownership and team and you know, everything that's 391 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: going on with the Black Lives movement. Um, there's just 392 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: so much. And you know, being able to kind of 393 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: point a linlight at the women's game, you know, it 394 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 1: started to could help grow that sport. Just the same. 395 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: Your son Walker has Type one diabetes. What was the 396 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: news like when you found that out? Well, it was 397 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight in the NBA Finals. We're playing 398 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: against the Lakers, UH And it was devastating because I 399 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: was getting ready for games five and you know, the 400 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: whole week he had been you know, kind of in 401 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: and out. We thought maybe he had the flu, and 402 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,479 Speaker 1: you know, we I told Shannon, my wife, before the 403 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: game that the day before, I said, just take him 404 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 1: to the hospital in the morning and just get him checked. 405 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: So that morning she took him to the to the 406 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: doctor in the hospital. We were staying over in Beverly 407 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 1: Hills and the team was separate from the families, and 408 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: so she took them. The guy said, take him to 409 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: the hospital and make sure you get his blood checked. 410 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,479 Speaker 1: You know, don't leave without getting his blood checked. And 411 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: without that, Walker wouldn't be with us today because the 412 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: blood can rule out a lot of scary things. And 413 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, he it diabetes masks itself as the flu, 414 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: and so when you're thinking about you know, common symptoms 415 00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: of diabetes are bed wedding, lethargy, vomiting, weight loss, weight gain, 416 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: h headaches. It masks itself as the flu. And when 417 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: you have a child that's going through the symptoms, a 418 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: lot of people will tell you what's going around. And 419 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: the misdiagnosis can can result with a lot of people 420 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: um not waking up with their children the next day. 421 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 1: So it's important that we talked about this. It's important 422 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: that you know, even now while I'm here today is 423 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: to to you know, talk about our great partnership with Abbott, 424 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 1: because Abbott has come out with the Freestyle Librate two, 425 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: which has allowed us to be able to monitor, you know, 426 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: Walker's diabetes so much easier. You think about the technology 427 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: now that's existed over the over the last twenty years, 428 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: and you know you're going on and on with people 429 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: with diabetes, and now you know we're able to track 430 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 1: and monitor his his blood sugar numbers through an app. Now, 431 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: So for anybody that wants to know anything about Freestyle 432 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: Librate two, you can go on the Freestyle Librate two 433 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: dot us and you can get that app for free 434 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 1: from the app store. But it certainly helped us, Like 435 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: right now as I sit here, I can go on 436 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: my phone and I can find out what Walker's numbers 437 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: are currently. So it gives me a piece of mind, 438 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: gives my wife peace of mind, and it enables us 439 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: to kind of help him grow a little bit better 440 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: and stronger. You think he would have died if this 441 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: was misdiagnosed. Yeah, I would not be sitting in his 442 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: room right now just thinking about We wouldn't have known anything. 443 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: We would just just mistook it as a fluid and 444 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: we just said go sleep, you know, and you know, 445 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 1: pounce and fluids and his blood sugar would have been 446 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: going through the roof. So I just implore every parent 447 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: when you go to the hospital, like you have to 448 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, we trust in doctors, but we at 449 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: the same time we have to just obviously follow the 450 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: science and make sure that we be advocates and fight 451 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: for our children and make sure that they test for everything, 452 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: especially when you're trying to figure out what is wrong 453 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: with your child. It's spelled libre l I b r 454 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: E A freestyle libre too. We're talking to Ray on 455 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: the Hall of Famer. Last time I had on, you 456 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: were in studio and I I tried to correct your 457 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 1: shot and I felt bad about it. I'm not going 458 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: to apologize though, Ray, but I the first I really yeah, no, no. 459 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: Over the course of my career, you get new coaches 460 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: to come in and they're like, well, why don't you 461 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: try this, And I'm like, well, I made the All 462 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: Star team a couple of times. It's been working for 463 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: me thus far, so I'm just gonna ride this thing out. 464 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 1: I just remember, because I was always taught that you 465 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: had the ball on your fingertips, you had the ball 466 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: in the palm of your hand. No, I never had 467 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: a ball in the phone in my hand. I remember, 468 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,199 Speaker 1: I got I got big hands. So because this is 469 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: what I stressed to my guys all day long, like 470 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 1: they're supposed to be spacing here. It's got to be 471 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: in your fingertips. And you don't want me to go 472 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 1: to the videotape rank because you gotta go to the videotape. 473 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: I was right there. I was right there. I was, 474 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: you know, a foot away from your right hand. I said, Ray, 475 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: it's on yours, on your palmit on your hand. No, 476 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 1: I never put that. I can't see with the ball 477 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: in palmer. I know. That's what I tell you know, 478 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: all the other great shooters that I come in contact with. 479 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, could you help Ben Simmon? How would 480 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 1: you help Ben Simmons? Uh? Well yeah, I definitely could 481 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 1: help them. Um one you people think about shooting is 482 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: some talent that that you know, some of the best 483 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,199 Speaker 1: that's ever done. It has, But it's just really just 484 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: getting in there and you know in your mind you 485 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 1: have to think about the game. You have to think 486 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: about you know, visualizing, you know what it is that 487 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: you want to do. Uh, what you foresee in your 488 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: free throw. So you have to have a mindset to 489 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 1: think about these things and then kind of absorb it 490 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: and then do it. And so you know, having the 491 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: right conversations first and foremost is important for him and 492 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: anybody struggles with shooting. And then it's like we have 493 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: the saying like if you have a full cup when 494 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: you walk into a crowd and somebody tries to put 495 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: something in your cup, you can't receive anything more because 496 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: you're already filled. So he's got to come to the 497 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: table with an empty cup and be willing to take 498 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: all this information, you know, for whatever he's thought about shooting, 499 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: kind of strip away and break all it down and 500 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: kind of rebuild back up. Because you know, one thing, 501 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: it's you know, how you hold the ball in your hands. 502 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: It's got to be in your fingertips. So you don't 503 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: have a push shot, and you have to shoot shots 504 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: that you know you're going to be tested on in 505 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: a game. You know, if you think about a fourth 506 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: quarter scenario with somebody running out at you, how is 507 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 1: that lift on your jump shot gonna look? What that 508 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: what is that release going to look like? And that's 509 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: what you have to practice when you're in the gym 510 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: by yourself, because you know, far too often when I 511 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: walk in the gym, I seat kids just up there 512 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: just shooting with their upper body. And then it doesn't 513 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: stand when you come into a game situation because now 514 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: you have to measure a different release point. And so 515 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: you know, with Been a lot of people are running 516 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: out out at him. I mean they're testing him to 517 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: make that shot. So that was that is where I 518 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: would put him in in a gym environment, a work 519 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: situation and have him shoot under the rest. But would 520 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: you mess with his form? I don't think there's anything 521 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: wrong with his form. And when you have to remember, 522 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, one of the greatest shooters I've ever seen 523 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,239 Speaker 1: in Reggie Miller. You know he doesn't have form that 524 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: was taught, you know, by any means. When I first 525 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: got into the league, I thought to myself, I was like, well, 526 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be perfect. You just have to 527 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: know what it is that you're working with. So with Ben, 528 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: you know, it's not a form thing. It's about explaining 529 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: to him what it is that he's doing when he's 530 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: missing and where he wants his energy to come from, 531 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: Like he's got to float through it he's a big guy, 532 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 1: like when he shoots and he extends, like shooting comes 533 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: from your feet all way through your body, and then 534 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: as you release the ball at your fingertips, it's not 535 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: just a heave here, it's it's all one motion. So 536 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: that's why for some of the best shooters in the 537 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: world and those that make it look so easy, that's 538 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: why it just looks like a fit flick because you're 539 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: using the motion from from your toes all way through 540 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: your fingertips. Can you step back just a little bit 541 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: on camera and show the audience what you mean when 542 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: you're saying, because a lot of people, you know, you 543 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: just practice the jumper up here up top, and what 544 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: you're saying, like Trey Young and Steph Curry aren't big guys, 545 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: but there they utilize their legs so well. So can 546 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: you stand up and just show us what Like where 547 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: you're if you're watching on radio or listening on radio, 548 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: we apologize, so all right, so show me what you mean. 549 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: So you know, when you look at step step and Trade, 550 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: they do have more of a push shot. So when 551 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: you when you come down, even my shot, I come 552 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: from here and then I go up and my motion 553 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: pushes me and pulls me, and I shoot the ball 554 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: and release, so it's just a flick. So when you 555 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: see guys coming to transition as they run and then 556 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: they stop, you see a lot of people kill their 557 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: their energy or the motion and they just push right here. 558 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: So what I want to get guys to understand is 559 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 1: when they run and then they take off, don't let 560 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: that energy, that inertia die at your feet, at your 561 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: lower body and where they just start pushing with their 562 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: up body. And it's important. And I'm also wondering about 563 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: this ray. It feels like you're seeing shooters maybe down 564 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: a little bit lower, whereas we were taught to be 565 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: a little bit higher with the release point. These longer shots, 566 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: it feels like these guys, yeah, they're starting down at 567 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: their chests. Like, are you teaching that to your kids? Well, 568 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 1: one of the things is fascinating. Even with my son Walker, 569 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: this is where his shot is and his release is 570 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: so low because you have to remember, for them, the 571 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: ball is bigger, so they have to use more muscle 572 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: and more of their body to get the ball up 573 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: and they're not in their wrists with the shots. So 574 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: it's super important to kind of gauze. That's why you know, 575 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: I put videos and my son's up when I'm working 576 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,479 Speaker 1: them out over the summer. And you know, the younger ones, 577 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: I don't mess their jump shot because they'll get on 578 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: the trampoline because they have a hoop on their trampoline 579 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: or a small ball and they'll shoot it just like 580 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: this and perfect form, rotation, everything. But when they get 581 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: the big ball, they have to push it from here 582 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: because they don't have the strength. And then what happens 583 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: is is the kid gets older, this is where their 584 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: release is because they haven't evolved and you know, reconstructive. 585 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 1: Where their jump shot is just where they're comfortable. So 586 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: that's what I think happens with a lot of kids 587 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: and they're jump shooting, is that they shoot one way. 588 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: When they're younger, they get the ball up and they 589 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: heave it and they never change or get to their 590 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: somewhat teenage years to their adult bodies where they're shooting 591 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: the shot that is conducive to them being now strong enough. 592 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: So I tell all the kids I'm in the gym 593 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: with us to listen, you're not in middle school anymore. 594 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: You have the strength in your wrists, and what I 595 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: do is I'll put them on their knees on the court, 596 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: and I'll have them first was walking to the gym 597 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: with the ball in your fingertips underneath the basket, and 598 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: you just I let them see that this is all 599 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: you need. And then then I'll let them get on 600 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: their knees on the floor and then shoot from there. 601 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: And then just let them work on that right there, 602 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: because this is all you need right here. If you're 603 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: using your body, this is it's not a heat. You 604 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: see a lot of people using their shoulders and their 605 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: lower body to try to get the ball up there, 606 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: and that's where form goes bad. And then if you 607 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: take that bad form, that's why it's a lot of 608 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: people end up not being able to shoot. Hey, the 609 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: Lakers are taking these old guys. You know, you think, 610 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: do you think you could give Lebron, you know, ten 611 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: minutes a game? Yeah, I can give them. I can 612 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: give them twenty minutes game. The problem is that next 613 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: day I'm gonna be struggled a little bit. It's the 614 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: recovery that gets you more than anything. That's all right. No, 615 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 1: no back to back for you, right, yeah? No back 616 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: to back? You know it's great now because I don't 617 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: know if you know this, but I started coaching. I'm 618 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: the head coach now Gulliver Prep down here in Miami, 619 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: and so now I get to work with these kids 620 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: every single day and you know, get them to see 621 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 1: and understand, you know, their their best potential because you know, physically, 622 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: I'll get on the court with them and run up 623 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: and down and try and get them to, you know, 624 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: be better than they were yesterday. And you know, if 625 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 1: they go to college or not, if they end up 626 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: going to their pros or not, whatever it may be, 627 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: it's got to be you know, high school sports has 628 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: to be a great experience for our kids. You know, 629 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 1: when you're thinking about the drafts and international players around 630 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: the world, they get drafted, and we got to make 631 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 1: sure that we made these experiences for kids in high 632 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 1: school a special experience and not not ruined by parents 633 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: or administrations, but just special for them. Then when they 634 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: go there, they feel like, man, I had a great 635 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 1: time playing on that team. When the lunch time you 636 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: went into a room and you weren't the best shooter 637 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: in the room, well, it's always arguable. It's been a while, 638 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: but listen, I I played in a golf tournament last 639 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: week with Steph and Dell Curry. Yeah, so you know, 640 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: depending on who you're asking, you know that There's Dale 641 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: was one of my favorite shooters, you know, all time 642 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: favorites and greats. So it is we we had this 643 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,720 Speaker 1: conversation all the time with buddies of mine. We always 644 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: talk about the greatest. And we were actually having this 645 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: conversation about comedians last night and they were trying to 646 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: say who the best comedian of all time wasn't And 647 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: somebody said, do you like Richard pryor Eddie Murphy? And 648 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: I said, we don't get Eddie Murphy without Richard Pryor. 649 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 1: And so it's important that we understand that a lot 650 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: of who we try to compare, like the next generators 651 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:48,720 Speaker 1: that comes along, we don't get without that that previous player, 652 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: you know, And that is something you know, all of 653 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: us have Jordan DNA and us. We have doctor j 654 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: and Magic DNA and us.

We talked about 687 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: can the body withstand the rigors of what the NBA 688 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: is and is he going to be on load management 689 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: at some point? Getting a foot injury. I go back 690 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: to Bill Walton. Bill Walton one of the greatest players 691 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: I ever saw when health, but he had so many 692 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: injuries issues with his feet, and it cut short his career. 693 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: He was not able to be as nimble as he 694 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: was at UCLA in those first couple of years when 695 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: he was with the Portland Trailblazers. But you know, he 696 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 1: got Zion, who who's not going to get smaller, thinner? 697 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: You know, as you get older you're adding more weight. 698 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 1: And he's only twenty one years of age, but broken 699 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 1: bone in his foot, I guess he's going to be 700 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: ready for the start of this season. I don't know 701 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 1: about camp yeah polling, but you remember what Charles Barkley 702 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: looked like coming out of Auburn and then Charles Barkley 703 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: with the Phoenix Suns. He didn't look like the same person. 704 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 1: I don't know the weight numbers, but he looked thirty 705 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: pounds forty pounds last Yeah, but he was known as 706 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: the round mound of rebounded Auburn and joked about his eating. 707 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: Zion is in looked like he was in great shape 708 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: at Duke. I didn't look at him and go, boy, 709 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: he looks heavy. I thought that he looked heavy when 710 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 1: he got into the NBA. At times he looked heavier. 711 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: And I don't know if you know, you get you 712 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,720 Speaker 1: get on a diet, you get in a routine. Sometimes 713 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: you'll have a chef that'll come in and that'll help 714 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: you because a lot of times you're eating late, you're 715 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: you're eating at different hours there and you know you've 716 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: got to you've gotta be more regimented. If you're looking 717 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: to have a long shelf life in the sport, then 718 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: you have to do that. And hopefully Zion is able 719 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: to do that. A couple of phone calls in here 720 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: top of the hour, mclovin has five good reasons to 721 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: watch the Bengals and the Jags tonight with against the Grain.

Hey Pete, what's on 730 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,839 Speaker 1: your mind today? Hi? Dan? I wanted to get on 731 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: top of what Ray Allen was saying about that and 732 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: one other thing, that you got to track diabetes early. 733 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 1: I have a son who contracted diabetes when he was 734 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: fifteen months old, and he was given a life expectancy 735 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 1: about eighteen to nineteen. He's now forty three. And that's 736 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 1: because you have to have a family that supports every 737 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: bit of it. And I'm happy to say that this 738 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 1: Saturday I will have been married to that woman for 739 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: fifty years. I'm so proud of it. Pete, thank you 740 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: for the phone call, and have fun this weekend. You're 741 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: lucky man. You know Ray saying that he if it 742 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:56,799 Speaker 1: went misdiagnosed, his son would have died. I appreciate him 743 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: joining us. We'll get to more phone calls coming up. 744 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: I did not expect that that phone call. So that's that's, 745 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 1: you know, powerful stuff. And I always say to people, 746 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: you know, when somebody says, oh, I hope I have 747 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: a boy, I hope I have a girl, I said, no, 748 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: you just hope you have a healthy chop. That's it, 749 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: because there's nothing more helpless than being in an emergency room, 750 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 1: being in the hospital and your child is there and 751 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: you can do nothing about it. So I certainly understand 752 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: that feeling and what Ray went through and others now 753 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: your children, you can only protect him so much. Always 754 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: appreciate phone calls.
