But you can tell just on 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:18.520 some real shit. He was like, Yo, I appreciate you 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:22.160 asking me a real ass question instead of like sitting 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:24.320 there telling me how much you love the movies I've done. 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:28.000 That was like, so our whole hour flight was about 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:30.360 just chopping it up about some real shit, like what 0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.600 people think of you versus what you think of yourself, 0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:35.760 versus what you said and what you did, what you're 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:38.400 responsible for, blah blah, blah.

So I ran for about maybe like ten minutes. 1:10:26.320 --> 1:10:28.880 But it was a learning lesson, you know, like, shit, 1:10:29.920 --> 1:10:32.800 I can't fuck I can't fuck with the All American Senior. 1:10:34.760 --> 1:10:35.600 Facts. 1:10:41.280 --> 1:10:43.719 He saved me my rookie year, my brother Keny March 1:10:44.400 --> 1:10:45.679 came motherfucking mark. 1:10:45.840 --> 1:10:47.760 What was that process like from the day you broke 1:10:47.800 --> 1:10:49.880 it and go to the day you got drafted number one? 1:10:51.200 --> 1:10:53.000 Hey, it was only like six months, right, and. 1:10:53.040 --> 1:10:57.080 When they met long shit. I got hurt March in 1:10:57.080 --> 1:11:00.320 the junie, so I didn't work out.

I was in 1:11:04.320 --> 1:11:08.840 a boot on crutches for two months. So I didn't 1:11:08.880 --> 1:11:14.559 do nothing but go to therapy. While everybody else going 1:11:14.560 --> 1:11:17.640 to meet with teams do all that. I didn't do 1:11:17.880 --> 1:11:20.240 none of it. Then when I was able to get 1:11:20.240 --> 1:11:26.200 the boot off and all that, it was okay. So 1:11:27.200 --> 1:11:30.640 how is it like, Well, so we go to Chicago. 1:11:32.120 --> 1:11:35.639 They're like, well, the screws got to come out before 1:11:35.640 --> 1:11:37.599 we even think about picking them. Screws got to come out. 1:11:37.680 --> 1:11:41.320 The doctors got examined, and so so we did that, 1:11:41.960 --> 1:11:45.719 and all these teams trying to so we were like, everybody, 1:11:45.720 --> 1:11:47.479 ain't finna come in this damn room. Ain't no damn 1:11:47.479 --> 1:11:50.439 guinea pig. What number you got? I ain't gonna be there? 1:11:50.960 --> 1:11:53.320 We got you can't come in the room.

And mentally I didn't didn't know, didn't 1:12:03.240 --> 1:12:05.000 know how to deal with it. Man, Like it ain't 1:12:05.000 --> 1:12:07.479 never been through that I always could hoop. I couldn't couldn't, 1:12:07.479 --> 1:12:09.960 couldn't do anything but sit there and wait, wait, and 1:12:10.000 --> 1:12:12.320 hear they think about taking this person. 1:12:12.360 --> 1:12:14.840 And who was in that draft? Who was remember the 1:12:14.880 --> 1:12:15.360 talk I. 1:12:15.360 --> 1:12:17.559 Was thinking about, like they was gonna take theirs first. 1:12:18.920 --> 1:12:21.160 The NETS was gonna take him first. They weren't thinking 1:12:21.160 --> 1:12:24.320 about taking stro Strong miles second, but they were thinking 1:12:24.360 --> 1:12:29.880 about taking there as first. So there's is athletic, but 1:12:29.920 --> 1:12:32.320 he couldn't hit his ass with both hands. Boy couldn't 1:12:32.320 --> 1:12:34.960 shoot that thing. So they was thinking about taking him. 1:12:35.000 --> 1:12:36.800 And I was in Orlando when he was working out. 1:12:36.960 --> 1:12:38.880 I went to visit Lana. I was down there together. 1:12:39.800 --> 1:12:40.800 Said he couldn't. 1:12:46.600 --> 1:12:51.360 Carry So I watched his workout right, and he couldn't 1:12:51.360 --> 1:12:54.920 shoot that bit. Oh, So I was like, ye'all think 1:12:54.960 --> 1:13:01.720 about taking him. I was like, okay. So Stu had 1:13:01.760 --> 1:13:04.400 told me. So Stu Jackson, he was in Vancouver at 1:13:04.400 --> 1:13:07.559 the time. Jim and Stu told me, if the Nets 1:13:07.640 --> 1:13:09.640 do something stupid, but I don't take not taking you 1:13:09.720 --> 1:13:12.519 number one, you won't get past us at two. 1:13:12.560 --> 1:13:13.240 So you good. 1:13:13.400 --> 1:13:17.639 So I was like shit, all right. So from that point, 1:13:17.680 --> 1:13:19.920 from that conversation on, it was like a relief change. 1:13:20.000 --> 1:13:23.400 Of course I want to be number one, but him 1:13:23.439 --> 1:13:25.880 telling me that was a side relief, know what I'm saying. 1:13:25.960 --> 1:13:29.160 So coming up to the draft, all that it was 1:13:29.160 --> 1:13:32.040 still like they still was on the fence. I drafted 1:13:32.200 --> 1:13:34.040 like they was still on the fence, was what they 1:13:34.120 --> 1:13:34.760 was telling us. 1:13:34.800 --> 1:13:38.479 But yeah, non Mike Miller, Jamal Crawford. 1:13:40.439 --> 1:13:44.400 So you did no workout for no teams and sort 1:13:44.439 --> 1:13:50.040 of just sort of a workout. Let me hear they 1:13:50.080 --> 1:13:51.880 wanted to say. They said, we need to see if 1:13:51.920 --> 1:13:55.040 he can run and jump. I had been right before 1:13:55.080 --> 1:13:57.679 the draft, maybe a week before the draft. 1:13:57.960 --> 1:13:58.879 I go to Jersey. 1:13:59.800 --> 1:14:03.400 I ain't really can't really do much, but I had 1:14:03.400 --> 1:14:05.519 been doing rehab. I had been out the boot and 1:14:05.520 --> 1:14:08.040 all that. Doing rehab for a little bit wasn't right 1:14:08.120 --> 1:14:10.599 all the way, but I had been running this stuff. 1:14:12.920 --> 1:14:13.400 Literally. 1:14:14.360 --> 1:14:19.080 I ran down the floor, ran back, grabbed the basketball, 1:14:19.240 --> 1:14:21.320 dunked it, and when it took my shoes off. 1:14:25.760 --> 1:14:29.400 I see you at the draft, exactly what y'all asked. 1:14:30.080 --> 1:14:33.000 If y'all saw me run, I jumped. 1:14:34.640 --> 1:14:35.080 That's it. 1:14:35.960 --> 1:14:36.840 What else you want from me? 1:14:36.840 --> 1:14:39.519 Man, No one's ever did that, I guarantee you.

I got to win 1:25:40.200 --> 1:25:41.080 all my fights. 1:25:41.560 --> 1:25:45.799 That's number one. Got to fuck all the pretty girls. 1:25:46.040 --> 1:25:48.000 I'm gonna get you suck, that's what that's number two. 1:25:49.960 --> 1:25:53.200 And I got to live all three of them. Things 1:25:53.240 --> 1:25:55.439 got to happen in the movie for me to be 1:25:55.520 --> 1:25:57.960 in them. And I looked at every movie this nigga 1:25:58.040 --> 1:26:01.840 was in and it's the same, and nigga beating up 1:26:01.920 --> 1:26:05.080 niggas from the beginning, fucking the bad bitch in the middle, 1:26:05.439 --> 1:26:06.640 and that nigga lives at the. 1:26:06.680 --> 1:26:08.880 End and in that time in the area. 1:26:09.560 --> 1:26:13.200 But just listen to me, in that time and in 1:26:13.240 --> 1:26:16.599 real life, nigga would get beat up. We're gonna take 1:26:16.640 --> 1:26:20.080 your bitch, and you're dead by the end of the movie. 1:26:20.720 --> 1:26:23.280 These are three things that's happening to you. Black actors 1:26:24.000 --> 1:26:27.160 get that part in your head. So somebody had to 1:26:27.240 --> 1:26:33.120 create a stigma of hold on, we wanna see some 1:26:33.160 --> 1:26:36.760 superheroes that look like us. That's where the super Fly 1:26:36.880 --> 1:26:40.000 and the Shafts and the Black Dynamites and the Dolomites, 1:26:40.000 --> 1:26:42.320 that's where they come from. Because it had to be 1:26:42.360 --> 1:26:45.320 somebody that set the trend on. You're not gonna do 1:26:45.400 --> 1:26:48.680 me like that. I'm not gonna be in it. So 1:26:49.000 --> 1:26:50.760 that's why when I got to a certain point of 1:26:50.800 --> 1:26:54.280 doing movies, I pulled back from Hollywood because they always 1:26:54.280 --> 1:26:56.519 wanted to kill a nigga. They wanted me to die 1:26:56.520 --> 1:26:59.240 in the movie. The last movie I died in Me 1:26:59.280 --> 1:27:01.519 and John Single How to Understand, And it was like, look, 1:27:02.600 --> 1:27:04.280 I really don't want to die in no more movies 1:27:04.360 --> 1:27:06.599 cause because I just don't like the spirit of that ship. 1:27:06.680 --> 1:27:07.360 I like to live. 1:27:07.760 --> 1:27:10.400 He was like, Nigga, the way you're gonna die in 1:27:10.400 --> 1:27:12.719 this movie, Nigga, you're gonna live forever. 1:27:15.280 --> 1:27:15.960 What was I to do? 1:27:16.479 --> 1:27:16.799 Nigga? 1:27:16.880 --> 1:27:29.800 Rodney from Baby Born, Welcome to the Show, Tyson Challer. 1:27:29.640 --> 1:27:34.360 Comptent, Demeanain, legendary, legendary, I know all about them. 1:27:34.400 --> 1:27:36.559 How was the hoop saying to talk about coming up? 1:27:36.880 --> 1:27:39.400 You know in that era because basketball was high school 1:27:39.439 --> 1:27:40.880 basketball was different when we was coming up. 1:27:40.920 --> 1:27:41.479 You know what I'm saying. 1:27:41.520 --> 1:27:43.880 Compton the Menas is one of those schools.

Like anytime you heard about a player, 1:27:57.160 --> 1:28:00.200 I heard about the school you it was talking was 1:28:00.240 --> 1:28:02.840 no like YouTube or something like that, a chance to 1:28:02.840 --> 1:28:05.799 see build it up, you know in your head or whatever. 1:28:06.920 --> 1:28:08.719 And so for us, we built that up too because 1:28:08.720 --> 1:28:11.320 we know everybody felt about us. So I mean we 1:28:11.400 --> 1:28:14.080 walk in the gyms, we walk in hoodie deep. Yeah, 1:28:14.160 --> 1:28:16.160 you know what I mean.

If he was wrong, 1:38:14.400 --> 1:38:17.640 he'd be the first, and not just not just to 1:38:17.920 --> 1:38:20.960 one person, like the whole group. 1:38:21.280 --> 1:38:22.920 He goes, he gonna go from a whole group. 1:38:22.920 --> 1:38:26.000 And because I didn't know no better, I didn't know, 1:38:26.000 --> 1:38:27.160 you know what I'm saying. I was still learning. I 1:38:27.200 --> 1:38:28.760 was going how to be a professional. You know what 1:38:28.800 --> 1:38:30.120 I'm saying. I was on a team with a whole 1:38:30.120 --> 1:38:33.479 bunch of guys who are the ultimate professional. I'm still learning, 1:38:33.520 --> 1:38:35.360 you know what I'm saying. So but that was a 1:38:35.400 --> 1:38:38.120 culture shock to go from New Jersey where you had 1:38:38.120 --> 1:38:40.280 a whole bunch of guys who on their way out, 1:38:40.479 --> 1:38:42.400 you know what I'm saying, Sherman Douglas. Then I go 1:38:42.439 --> 1:38:44.280 to a team where you got stars like Tim Duncan, 1:38:44.360 --> 1:38:50.200 Dack Robinson. But this is an organization that that's uh, everything. 1:38:49.920 --> 1:38:51.800 Is about winning. It feels like a championship here. 1:38:51.800 --> 1:38:53.439 So it was a different It was a culture shock 1:38:53.479 --> 1:38:55.120 for me, but it was a great It was the 1:38:55.160 --> 1:38:57.080 best thing for me because if I went anywhere else, 1:38:57.160 --> 1:39:01.840 I wouldn't have lasted that long. But talk about it, 1:39:01.840 --> 1:39:04.519 it just resurfaced of me calling off my wedding. 1:39:04.800 --> 1:39:07.639 My boy was there. Oh yeah, Mike was there. 1:39:08.000 --> 1:39:09.479 So you came all the way from nothing to. 1:39:13.800 --> 1:39:16.920 Nothing. Michael was holding me down, holding me down though 1:39:17.560 --> 1:39:19.000 you know I was in the crime. 1:39:19.040 --> 1:39:21.640 I remember, I remember this Vivili bro Uh when I 1:39:21.640 --> 1:39:24.240 called the webnam, I was to be honest, all joke 1:39:24.240 --> 1:39:26.800 a side. I was really hurt, bro. He know I 1:39:26.840 --> 1:39:29.400 loved that girl and I was really want to be married. 1:39:29.400 --> 1:39:31.080 For me to take that step, but this is what 1:39:31.160 --> 1:39:32.880 I remember vividly, and this is why I love him 1:39:32.880 --> 1:39:36.040 and Mike Bibby's Mama. I was in the crying, like 1:39:36.120 --> 1:39:38.479 hard down crying. Mike will be Mom came in there 1:39:38.880 --> 1:39:42.040 and WAPs wipes not until the way with her bare hands, 1:39:42.439 --> 1:39:45.120 and told me you became a man today. And he 1:39:45.560 --> 1:39:48.479 came right behind her and said the same thing. You 1:39:48.520 --> 1:39:51.040 know what I'm saying. I was, and I was what 1:39:51.080 --> 1:39:53.960 twenty three twenty four at the time. Yeah, And I 1:39:54.000 --> 1:39:55.760 came straight up out of it, do you know what 1:39:55.800 --> 1:39:57.800 I'm saying? And that meant a lot, because if I 1:39:57.840 --> 1:40:00.240 didn't have him have them there that day, I don't 1:40:00.240 --> 1:40:01.360 know how I would have made it out of that. 1:40:01.520 --> 1:40:02.920 You know, people can talk all this shit. Yeah, you 1:40:03.000 --> 1:40:04.680 was a man. You did what you're supposed to do. 1:40:04.760 --> 1:40:06.600 But I was hurt, bro, I was hurt for a 1:40:06.600 --> 1:40:08.479 long time because I actually wanted to be married. 1:40:09.680 --> 1:40:11.040 You know, it might not have been the best thing 1:40:11.080 --> 1:40:11.320 for you. 1:40:11.439 --> 1:40:14.720 Definitely was Definitely was in my pockets, got it? 1:40:20.640 --> 1:40:24.280 I mean obvious to getting back to important Mike and instrumental. 1:40:24.400 --> 1:40:25.200 Got too many stories. 1:40:27.640 --> 1:40:31.200 I'm gonna keep navigating, y'all. Throw y'all, Michael was one 1:40:31.240 --> 1:40:33.320 of three people the help you get back in the league. 1:40:33.720 --> 1:40:36.519 You guys both speak to that. This is after obviously 1:40:36.520 --> 1:40:39.080 after the brawl Indiana. 1:40:39.720 --> 1:40:40.240 I started. 1:40:40.320 --> 1:40:44.600 So after San Antonio, I wanted my big contract. We 1:40:44.600 --> 1:40:47.000 won championship. I felt like I deserved a big contract because, 1:40:47.040 --> 1:40:49.120 like Mike said, they didn't look at like that. 1:40:49.160 --> 1:40:51.040 But I carried a lot of games. 1:40:51.160 --> 1:40:53.080 Game six in the West Commence Finals, we don't win 1:40:53.120 --> 1:40:55.640 that game if I don't carry. It's the first three quarters, 1:40:55.800 --> 1:40:57.719 so a lot. I was thinking like that in my head, 1:40:57.760 --> 1:40:59.320 but I didn't know the business as well. You know 1:40:59.360 --> 1:41:01.360 what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying. So if 1:41:01.360 --> 1:41:03.360 I could rewind back, I would have took that three year, 1:41:03.560 --> 1:41:06.000 ten year, three years, ten million dollars because I would 1:41:06.000 --> 1:41:07.000 been on a championship team. 1:41:07.160 --> 1:41:09.080 I probably won two more championship. Then I always got 1:41:09.080 --> 1:41:11.160 a crazy bag. That's the end out there. 1:41:11.200 --> 1:41:13.479 But I didn't understand the best of the time, so 1:41:14.120 --> 1:41:15.760 I was upset with them not getting my bag. 1:41:15.800 --> 1:41:17.120 So I had to go to Atlanta for one year 1:41:17.120 --> 1:41:17.719 to prove myself. 1:41:17.720 --> 1:41:19.559 I'm betting on you. I bet on myself today in 1:41:19.600 --> 1:41:21.680 front of anybody, I'm betting on me, and I went 1:41:21.720 --> 1:41:23.880 down balled out. But I had this in my mind 1:41:25.240 --> 1:41:27.840 that I didn't get my big contract. But I knew 1:41:27.880 --> 1:41:31.639 I had Mike and Rick and Indiana that was interested 1:41:31.680 --> 1:41:33.000 in me. I had no idea I was gonna get 1:41:33.040 --> 1:41:35.000 a contract from him, but I knew they were interested, 1:41:35.040 --> 1:41:36.640 and I knew I had a relationship. 1:41:36.200 --> 1:41:39.080 With him, so I knew go to Atlanta and ball out. 1:41:39.520 --> 1:41:41.360 Sure shits, think got ball out in Atlanta. 1:41:42.960 --> 1:41:47.120 They have another mid level exception available and Donnie Walshall 1:41:47.120 --> 1:41:49.320 was hired me by then too, And I remember Mike 1:41:49.360 --> 1:41:50.920 tell them like, we're gonna We're gonna get you over here. 1:41:50.960 --> 1:41:52.920 And that's how it worked out for me going to Indianna, 1:41:53.000 --> 1:41:54.439 end up getting the biggest contract ever. 1:41:54.360 --> 1:41:56.479 Had, thanks my guy. 1:41:56.600 --> 1:42:00.760 Now fast forward till thanks to you, I went running 1:42:00.800 --> 1:42:01.040 for it. 1:42:01.120 --> 1:42:04.920 Yeah, I was running for fast forward to the brawl. 1:42:05.800 --> 1:42:07.160 Yeah, that that was crazy, man like. 1:42:07.200 --> 1:42:09.920 So so the bra situation was crazy because it seemed 1:42:09.920 --> 1:42:12.439 like it happened from this. I'm getting Larry Barry calling 1:42:12.479 --> 1:42:14.919 me telling me that I'm signing a big deal with Indiana, 1:42:15.200 --> 1:42:16.720 and it seemed like the brawl happened the next day. 1:42:16.720 --> 1:42:18.240 In my mind, that's how you know what I'm saying. 1:42:18.439 --> 1:42:19.960 I was that happened soon as I got there. 1:42:22.200 --> 1:42:24.120 In my mind, I was in the position Matt where 1:42:24.720 --> 1:42:25.920 we're finna win the championship. 1:42:26.400 --> 1:42:27.040 Y'all was loaded. 1:42:27.600 --> 1:42:30.240 Nobody beating us, bro nobody beating us.

So I'm 1:43:01.280 --> 1:43:03.400 sure he wasn't surprised when I went the stands behind 1:43:03.479 --> 1:43:04.719 run because that's just how. 1:43:04.600 --> 1:43:06.040 I am, you know what I say. That's why I 1:43:06.040 --> 1:43:06.639 said earlier. 1:43:06.640 --> 1:43:10.840 He ain't about the team. I'm lawyer, and he knows 1:43:10.880 --> 1:43:12.680 sometimes it could be talking so far. 1:43:12.920 --> 1:43:15.800 Ye exactly, That's just that's who he is. And when 1:43:15.800 --> 1:43:18.280 he went, I didn't think twice the game was over. 1:43:18.400 --> 1:43:21.439 You know, we could talk about it now because people 1:43:21.479 --> 1:43:23.280 willing to look it down and slow down the frames. 1:43:23.640 --> 1:43:26.519 When I first win the stands. I didn't throw a punch. 1:43:26.840 --> 1:43:28.800 Me and Mike got to run at the same time. 1:43:28.840 --> 1:43:31.840 We both grabbed him. What made me throw that punch 1:43:32.000 --> 1:43:35.280 was another beer was throwing it wrong face, So that's what. 1:43:35.320 --> 1:43:36.920 Made me click. If anybody look at it, I had 1:43:36.920 --> 1:43:37.479 no intentions. 1:43:37.520 --> 1:43:39.680 I ran by thirty people and got to run, so 1:43:39.720 --> 1:43:41.720 I had no intentions on hit nobody. But when the 1:43:41.760 --> 1:43:43.880 second beer came, I felt like it was just it 1:43:43.920 --> 1:43:47.760 was just too disrespectful. That and that's what happened. But 1:43:47.800 --> 1:43:50.320 this is the funny part. What we don't talk about. 1:43:51.240 --> 1:43:56.880 This motherfucker went off after the game, so doing the scuffling. 1:43:56.439 --> 1:44:00.599 Somebody fucking around the elbow him.

We'll be here all day, all day. 1:45:27.320 --> 1:45:28.479 But I love you, Mike. 1:45:28.560 --> 1:45:30.000 I never I never got a chance to tell you 1:45:30.040 --> 1:45:33.760 this on camera publicly, but you know how my mom 1:45:33.800 --> 1:45:37.760 and how I feel about you. How from the opportunities 1:45:37.760 --> 1:45:40.000 you gave me to to San Antonio to where you 1:45:40.040 --> 1:45:42.439 embraced me as like a little brother in the somewhere 1:45:42.439 --> 1:45:43.920 I was in the league to be able to tutor me, 1:45:43.960 --> 1:45:45.840 and even when I wasn't playing on your team, you 1:45:45.920 --> 1:45:48.040 still made phone calls and make sure I was straight, 1:45:48.080 --> 1:45:50.360 still checked on me. So that meant a lot to me, 1:45:50.479 --> 1:45:53.320 because you know badly making into the league and the 1:45:53.360 --> 1:45:55.720 road I took you didn't have that many coaches that 1:45:55.800 --> 1:45:59.080 actually cared about me or my family or to come 1:45:59.120 --> 1:46:01.320 to my web to the leaves like that. So you 1:46:01.439 --> 1:46:03.120 made it a point to show me that you cared 1:46:03.120 --> 1:46:06.519 about fighting played for you. So I love you forever 1:46:06.520 --> 1:46:07.439 and I appreciate everything. 1:46:07.479 --> 1:46:07.759 Coach. 1:46:08.400 --> 1:46:10.760 I love it too, man, and I can say the 1:46:10.800 --> 1:46:15.840 same for you in a lot of different instances. More importantly, though, 1:46:16.160 --> 1:46:19.559 some times you showed up Saturday morning to support my boys. 1:46:21.040 --> 1:46:22.720 They had a hug. They had a hug today. I'm like, 1:46:22.960 --> 1:46:30.240 how you know him? I started thinking, like a nice embrace, bro. 1:46:30.640 --> 1:46:32.880 I was like, okay, brother, Yeah, that's dope. 1:46:35.520 --> 1:46:38.519 Coming to you from Dallas. Set the tone with with 1:46:38.640 --> 1:46:41.760 the boss man, mister Mark Cuban, and now we got 1:46:41.760 --> 1:46:42.840 one of the greatest to ever do. 1:46:42.840 --> 1:46:46.000 It, Jack Dennis Rodman had a brief stand here. What 1:46:46.080 --> 1:46:46.320 was that? 1:46:46.400 --> 1:46:46.519 Like? 1:46:47.240 --> 1:46:48.479 I was wild. I mean. 1:46:50.120 --> 1:46:53.000 I'm a big Chicago Bulls fan in the nineties there obviously, 1:46:53.520 --> 1:46:55.960 so he was. He was one of my heroes. And 1:46:56.000 --> 1:46:59.360 then you know, Q spot the team the second my 1:46:59.439 --> 1:47:03.000 second year, halfway through and he's like, you know, we 1:47:03.040 --> 1:47:04.880 need to make a splash here, we need to get 1:47:04.880 --> 1:47:07.360 on the map. This is a Cowboys Town and I 1:47:07.439 --> 1:47:10.760 want to bring the the Mavericks back. I think I'm 1:47:10.760 --> 1:47:14.240 gonna sign Dennis Rodman and we're like, are you serious? 1:47:15.880 --> 1:47:19.120 But he ended up doing it and it was it 1:47:19.160 --> 1:47:24.240 was quite an experience, so he uh every time. So 1:47:24.280 --> 1:47:26.960 as a team meeting, we usually meet with Nelly obviously 1:47:27.120 --> 1:47:30.000 with forty minutes before the game. So the first game 1:47:30.000 --> 1:47:32.280 we have Dennis Robmin we're all kind of like excited 1:47:32.320 --> 1:47:37.080 he's starting. So forty minute rolls around. He gets up, 1:47:37.160 --> 1:47:40.400 new it's about to start the film. Robin gets up 1:47:40.439 --> 1:47:45.120 and goes take a shower, Like okay, so he comes back. 1:47:46.000 --> 1:47:47.959 He didn't see the video, he doesn't know the coverages, 1:47:48.080 --> 1:47:50.240 so he just goes out and kind of does Sometimes 1:47:50.240 --> 1:47:52.479 he squeezes, sometimes he hedges a little bit, sometimes he 1:47:52.520 --> 1:47:56.400 does nothing. So I was like, okay, maybe he just 1:47:56.400 --> 1:47:59.400 did it one time. Second game, forty minutes on o'clock, 1:47:59.439 --> 1:48:02.679 he gets up, showers, so he missed all the pregame 1:48:02.720 --> 1:48:05.200 meetings before the game and had no idea about the 1:48:05.240 --> 1:48:07.800 coverages that we're doing and kind of did his own thing, 1:48:07.840 --> 1:48:10.160 And I was like, that was just his routine. At 1:48:10.200 --> 1:48:12.759 forty minutes before the game, he was he was showering, 1:48:13.800 --> 1:48:16.120 and then and then after the game, he would just 1:48:16.640 --> 1:48:18.960 put his own gear on and would go lift hard 1:48:19.000 --> 1:48:21.160 for like an hour and a half, two hours. Wouldn't wouldn't, 1:48:21.520 --> 1:48:24.000 wouldn't be with the team, would just be fine, fine, 1:48:24.200 --> 1:48:27.679 his his workout room and he had his little workout coach, 1:48:27.760 --> 1:48:30.200 and then they were just lifting heavy for like an 1:48:30.280 --> 1:48:32.000 hour and a half after the game. And then he 1:48:32.200 --> 1:48:34.960 just put on a cowboy hat with these long feathers, 1:48:34.960 --> 1:48:39.040 didn't shower and just walked right out the arena. And 1:48:39.120 --> 1:48:41.960 it was and then media scrum would chasing him and 1:48:41.960 --> 1:48:46.160 he's and he's mumbling something is it was a comedy 1:48:46.280 --> 1:48:48.960 side show. And then it just wouldn't work. It wasn't 1:48:48.960 --> 1:48:51.400 working well that those couple of games he was here. 1:48:51.520 --> 1:48:54.800 And but it was definitely a splash. I mean, you 1:48:54.840 --> 1:48:58.479 know that the arena was full, and he got kicked 1:48:58.520 --> 1:49:00.920 out of one game. He sat on the court for 1:49:00.960 --> 1:49:02.840 a while and the rest didn't want to throw him out. 1:49:02.840 --> 1:49:05.360 I mean, there was a lot of stuff happened, which 1:49:05.680 --> 1:49:07.800 which was a cool experience for me, I guess as 1:49:07.800 --> 1:49:10.880 a young guy growing up. But it just basketball wise, 1:49:10.920 --> 1:49:11.679 it just unfortunate. 1:49:11.720 --> 1:49:16.200 Didn't brief stint when you first got the team Dennis Rodman, Yeah, day, 1:49:16.320 --> 1:49:16.800 what was that? 1:49:16.960 --> 1:49:18.519 What was that like? And did he really stay with 1:49:18.560 --> 1:49:19.719 you or is that just urban legend? 1:49:19.840 --> 1:49:20.400 No, it's true. 1:49:21.080 --> 1:49:24.280 He had lost his driver's license and so I have 1:49:24.360 --> 1:49:26.800 a I have a guest house behind my house. 1:49:26.840 --> 1:49:27.800 I'm like, just stay there. 1:49:28.000 --> 1:49:28.960 I can take you there. 1:49:30.960 --> 1:49:32.479 It was funny. I loved you that, right. 1:49:32.760 --> 1:49:34.240 He was just and he would come up to my 1:49:34.360 --> 1:49:38.760 house and he would just sit there watching cartoons all 1:49:38.800 --> 1:49:41.240 day for real, you know. Or he'd sneak Carmen a 1:49:41.280 --> 1:49:45.080 lecture through the back door back to the guesthouse. But 1:49:45.240 --> 1:49:47.720 he was a cool dude, right. But you know, we 1:49:47.800 --> 1:49:50.479 had a team vote because we couldn't rebound at all, 1:49:50.640 --> 1:49:52.560 and I We're like, well he's a rebounder and he 1:49:52.600 --> 1:49:54.960 needs a job, and the guys Nelly had the guys 1:49:55.000 --> 1:49:57.559 vote on they said yes, and I never We were 1:49:57.560 --> 1:49:59.880 playing Sack one game and he was supposed to guard 1:50:00.040 --> 1:50:03.759 a s Webber and now he's like guards Chris Weber 1:50:04.320 --> 1:50:07.000 and instead of guarding him, he just pointed at sea 1:50:07.040 --> 1:50:10.080 web and see what, Boom hits a jumper. But you 1:50:10.120 --> 1:50:12.800 can't hit that again. Boom And the other guys. 1:50:12.640 --> 1:50:14.160 Like, what going on. 1:50:14.280 --> 1:50:15.439 Yeah, that was the end of it. 1:50:16.160 --> 1:50:21.280 So let me just tell you I learned more from 1:50:21.320 --> 1:50:25.320 Dennis Rodman about PR marketing than I learned in any 1:50:25.439 --> 1:50:28.599 NBA class, anything I've ever done. The man was a 1:50:28.720 --> 1:50:32.240 master of marketing in like he knew. 1:50:32.560 --> 1:50:35.479 Like we'd go place he was still super hot. 1:50:35.520 --> 1:50:38.000 Then we go someplace and there'd just be masses of 1:50:38.000 --> 1:50:40.720 people that were just excited to see him, and you know, 1:50:40.800 --> 1:50:42.720 he'd be like, Okay, you just got to keep on 1:50:42.800 --> 1:50:45.800 refreshing and coming up with new stuff and letting people. 1:50:45.560 --> 1:50:46.719 Know you're going to be there. 1:50:47.040 --> 1:50:49.360 And so him and Paris Hilton are my two like 1:50:49.680 --> 1:50:52.680 marketing and PR googles, But d R.

You know, we negotiated 1:53:14.720 --> 1:53:16.880 our deal for the show. He was far of negotiation 1:53:17.680 --> 1:53:20.200 and we got you know, the underdog took care of us. 1:53:20.920 --> 1:53:22.840 When you passed to me, we win. You see what 1:53:23.360 --> 1:53:26.200 makes leave me the fuck alone about the game already? Fine, 1:53:26.680 --> 1:53:29.000 I should have passed the ball, bro, But Max was 1:53:29.040 --> 1:53:32.280 really good too. It's just it's really gard orientated and 1:53:32.400 --> 1:53:34.880 during that time, like you know, we're playing against stuff 1:53:34.880 --> 1:53:38.240 on Marlbury at the time. Felipe Lopez was there at 1:53:38.240 --> 1:53:38.639 the time. 1:53:38.760 --> 1:53:40.840 You know, it was speaking to cut you off, speak 1:53:40.880 --> 1:53:42.360 to Felipe because he had a lot of game and 1:53:42.439 --> 1:53:43.560 never really materialized. 1:53:43.560 --> 1:53:44.679 But he had a whole lot of game. 1:53:46.080 --> 1:54:01.559 He's all right, he's like, you know what it is. 1:54:01.600 --> 1:54:03.479 I'm being honest with you. First of all, we don't 1:54:03.520 --> 1:54:07.760 know how old Felippe is. He comes from Dominicans birth certificate, 1:54:08.320 --> 1:54:10.400 so we don't know. My man with the rice with 1:54:10.600 --> 1:54:16.200 Felipe right there, that's as yeah, yeah. 1:54:14.880 --> 1:54:17.320 We really don't know how old Felipe Lopez is. 1:54:17.880 --> 1:54:21.200 Now, I tell you this much, New York, especially Manhattan 1:54:21.240 --> 1:54:24.639 has a big Dominican community, like talking about a big 1:54:24.680 --> 1:54:27.800 Dominican community. Now, Felipe, I'm not gonna say and say 1:54:27.840 --> 1:54:30.479 he wasn't good. I'd rather take stuff than Felipe if 1:54:30.479 --> 1:54:33.400 you asking me my person question. But no, they was 1:54:33.480 --> 1:54:38.120 hyping it. Yeah, yeah, that Felipe's it's better than stuff. 1:54:38.160 --> 1:54:41.320 He's a year older as far as grade wise. But 1:54:41.960 --> 1:54:44.280 he was good. But it was the hype behind. And 1:54:44.280 --> 1:54:46.480 that's why to me and the materialize it in the 1:54:46.600 --> 1:54:50.320 NBA because look, you go to the game. I'm not 1:54:50.400 --> 1:54:52.720 even exaggerating. I don't know if y'll ever been in 1:54:52.880 --> 1:54:56.280 the like Broadway in Amsterdam and New York. Probably Jackass 1:54:56.800 --> 1:55:00.520 have been everywhere this old Dominicans, Yoe. So when you 1:55:00.560 --> 1:55:04.000 go to these games, they come with guitars, they come 1:55:04.040 --> 1:55:09.240 with being Joe's, they come with with xylophones. Facts are 1:55:09.280 --> 1:55:12.320 not bro ya. He went to He was the mascot 1:55:12.400 --> 1:55:16.040 at Rights, my man. 1:55:16.480 --> 1:55:17.040 That's a fact. 1:55:17.080 --> 1:55:23.800 Though these niggas come, yeah niggas like so when I'm 1:55:23.800 --> 1:55:26.920 talking about these niggas, the half the arena or whoever 1:55:27.000 --> 1:55:31.760 nigga's performing at was uh filled with Dominican people, which 1:55:31.880 --> 1:55:35.200 was great support because it wasn't like a Dominican basketball 1:55:35.200 --> 1:55:38.200 player at the time coming out of New York. So 1:55:38.280 --> 1:55:41.040 his hype was crazy. And I'm not gonna say and 1:55:41.080 --> 1:55:43.720 say he wasn't good. He was good, but the hype 1:55:43.760 --> 1:55:45.760 behind it was it was a hype. Traine like to 1:55:45.920 --> 1:55:46.640 keep it a buck. 1:55:47.000 --> 1:55:47.240 You know. 1:55:48.000 --> 1:55:50.360 It showed when he got the Saint John's. You know, 1:55:50.400 --> 1:55:53.320 as soon as you get to see Yeah, you wouldn't 1:55:53.320 --> 1:55:55.160 have been there all four years with the hype he had. 1:55:55.200 --> 1:55:57.080 You know what I'm saying, he should have been with 1:55:57.240 --> 1:56:00.360 Kevin Garnett, did yeah or not been going. 1:56:00.400 --> 1:56:00.880 They wanted him. 1:56:00.880 --> 1:56:04.240 They talk about the Knicks taking him straight from Rice 1:56:04.360 --> 1:56:06.880 and nobody was really doing that at the top. KG 1:56:07.120 --> 1:56:08.480 kind of broke that code. 1:56:08.560 --> 1:56:11.000 Was on sports illustrating high school all that exactly. 1:56:11.240 --> 1:56:13.720 That's a fact, you know. I'm telling you. I remember 1:56:13.760 --> 1:56:15.640 looking at the newspaper and they talk about the Knicks 1:56:15.640 --> 1:56:18.360 may give Philippe. Then when he got the Saint John's 1:56:19.360 --> 1:56:21.800 you just seen. Niggas wasn't with that, especially when you 1:56:21.920 --> 1:56:24.480 that nigga is supposed to be that nigga. Niggas can't 1:56:24.480 --> 1:56:25.440 wait to kill you. Y'all. 1:56:25.480 --> 1:56:28.880 Niggas know like better than anybody, like, Oh. 1:56:28.640 --> 1:56:32.800 Like I don't really know what uh who y'all played 1:56:32.840 --> 1:56:35.720 against college or high school, but I'm pretty sure that 1:56:35.760 --> 1:56:37.640 it was a nigga that Jay was like, Oh that's 1:56:37.720 --> 1:56:42.320 y'all king back. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying. 1:56:42.800 --> 1:56:45.200 So that's kind of how it felt. When it came 1:56:45.240 --> 1:56:48.400 to Felipe. I thought he was good, but if I 1:56:48.440 --> 1:56:50.160 had to pick, I would have picked Steph. That was 1:56:50.240 --> 1:56:53.480 like a pure point guard. He had brothers that played 1:56:53.480 --> 1:56:56.360 before him. He was really good. Felipe was decent, but 1:56:57.480 --> 1:57:00.880 he was just toler and no disrespect. He had the 1:57:00.920 --> 1:57:06.000 Dominican culture with him. Yeah, exactly, that hype trading, that 1:57:06.080 --> 1:57:09.440 whole joint. I must felipe as. When I played to 1:57:09.520 --> 1:57:12.240 I played them and stuff Marbury and skipped the my 1:57:12.320 --> 1:57:15.600 Loup shout out to Rafael Austin and my niggas. But 1:57:16.200 --> 1:57:18.680 when I played it was the same thing, like telling 1:57:18.720 --> 1:57:21.320 you like this, so y'all love this, so you're life. 1:57:21.320 --> 1:57:23.520 You know it's funny me and stuff Marlborough.

You're avenue twenty three and ten 2:01:49.320 --> 2:01:52.200 in the finals. What was that? We got GP side. 2:01:52.240 --> 2:01:53.560 We had GP a couple of years ago. 2:01:53.920 --> 2:01:56.360 GP said, if GP said, if they would have put 2:01:56.440 --> 2:01:59.680 him on or mj earlier, y'all would have won it. 2:02:00.200 --> 2:02:02.600 Yeah, Gary was having he had. They had a couple 2:02:02.560 --> 2:02:05.080 of little injuries he had, so they didn't want to 2:02:05.560 --> 2:02:08.960 exert him at first. Uh, they put Detla on Michael Jordan, 2:02:09.400 --> 2:02:13.880 which didn't go well. I mean, I mean, look at it. 2:02:15.800 --> 2:02:17.960 DeLand was a great player. I mean he is man. 2:02:18.000 --> 2:02:19.960 I don't think it was fair to him all of 2:02:20.000 --> 2:02:21.680 a sudden. You know, you come on, you know what 2:02:21.760 --> 2:02:24.080 I'm saying. If anything, you pull somebody off the bench 2:02:24.080 --> 2:02:26.120 and pull on Michael Jordan, they can just waste files 2:02:26.160 --> 2:02:28.520 and be physical with him. But you know, you come 2:02:28.560 --> 2:02:30.800 out there being soft with Michael. He's gonna take advantage 2:02:30.840 --> 2:02:34.320 of you. And that's exactly what happened. But Michael wasn't 2:02:34.320 --> 2:02:36.640 the reason he didn't beat us in the championship. He 2:02:36.680 --> 2:02:39.200 did not beat us. Man we we we was on 2:02:39.320 --> 2:02:41.320 his ass. Well, he didn't beat us. Dennis Robbins is 2:02:41.360 --> 2:02:44.600 the one who we had no answer for him as man. 2:02:45.000 --> 2:02:47.440 Really we had no answer for Dennis Robins. I mean 2:02:47.760 --> 2:02:50.400 every time that they needed a second shot or something special, 2:02:50.560 --> 2:02:54.280 extra rebound or tip in. This motherfucker was flying and 2:02:55.280 --> 2:03:00.320 winking and I mean wincing and testing and ship straighten 2:03:00.360 --> 2:03:02.960 everybody on the team. Man's not even like that. He 2:03:03.080 --> 2:03:05.760 just do that ship. Just you just doing that ship 2:03:06.040 --> 2:03:08.480 he had, you know, my team just flustered. 2:03:08.520 --> 2:03:09.760 Man, what kind of ship would he do? 2:03:10.400 --> 2:03:10.680 Uh? 2:03:11.240 --> 2:03:13.960 I'm gonna tell you what. Frank McCosky man dinner this morning, 2:03:14.040 --> 2:03:20.680 didn't started wearing color contacts the championship. He started wearing 2:03:20.680 --> 2:03:24.560 color color contacts in the Championship with some lip ship 2:03:24.640 --> 2:03:27.600 on man. He would be like he was trying to 2:03:27.680 --> 2:03:31.640 kiss Frank's arm and shipped and then Frank just couldn't 2:03:31.640 --> 2:03:33.520 take it. Man, it was just the man and him 2:03:33.640 --> 2:03:38.760 just couldn't allow it. Dinner's new with buttons to push, man, 2:03:38.800 --> 2:03:42.440 and we need to freak the rebound ship. He got 2:03:42.520 --> 2:03:47.680 him all discombobilated. Man. So yeah, my god, absolutely, man, 2:03:47.680 --> 2:03:52.120 Dennis Robber, I was his defense man, well me, I 2:03:52.120 --> 2:03:57.280 mean his defense was good, wasn't. I mean he wasn't 2:03:57.800 --> 2:03:59.560 too big for dinner, right, you know what I'm saying, 2:03:59.560 --> 2:04:01.400 I'm a little bit too big for Dennis. I don't 2:04:01.400 --> 2:04:06.280 think that's a fair agile. But his defense was great, man. 2:04:06.760 --> 2:04:08.440 Like I said, he was just tipping the ball and 2:04:08.480 --> 2:04:10.800 rebounding high knee and doing all this silly ship man, 2:04:10.840 --> 2:04:12.960 all the ship that you hate to see. 2:04:13.280 --> 2:04:14.560 And they need it. 2:04:14.720 --> 2:04:19.000 Yeah, that's exactly what they need, man. Scotty piping is 2:04:19.040 --> 2:04:21.360 great man. You know, I played with Pippen in Portland. 2:04:21.600 --> 2:04:24.520 I just say this, but sometimes they people don't get 2:04:24.560 --> 2:04:27.400 pipping his props. But Scottie Pippen was gonna be good 2:04:27.440 --> 2:04:29.640 ball player without Michael Jordan. He would have been a 2:04:29.720 --> 2:04:33.240 quality ball player without Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan definitely made 2:04:33.280 --> 2:04:35.960 him a little bit better. But my man, Scottie Pippen 2:04:36.040 --> 2:04:38.240 was still balling when he was in Portland. You know, 2:04:39.000 --> 2:04:41.480 he wasn't no match for Kobe when we was playing 2:04:41.680 --> 2:04:46.080 right back then. Yeah, you know Kobe. But Scotty was 2:04:46.120 --> 2:04:48.640 still balling man. He could still play the pass and lanes. 2:04:48.840 --> 2:04:51.000 He's never been a great shooter, but he's just been 2:04:51.080 --> 2:04:53.600 athletic to do a lot of different things, you know, 2:04:54.520 --> 2:04:57.040 past scoring, rebounding, that's his game. 2:04:58.280 --> 2:05:01.040 Talk What was Mike like in the those finals? Talking 2:05:01.240 --> 2:05:03.240 just straight about business? What was it like? 2:05:03.840 --> 2:05:08.120 And well, we played Mike in the finals. We were 2:05:08.160 --> 2:05:11.160 trying to engage with him a lot man. We really 2:05:11.160 --> 2:05:16.640 wanted him. We wanted physicality, we wanted to uh, we 2:05:16.640 --> 2:05:18.240 were trying to test him, but he wasn't. 2:05:19.240 --> 2:05:22.640 He wasn't going for it. He was focused all right. 2:05:22.680 --> 2:05:23.960 Here was a picture right there. 2:05:25.000 --> 2:05:28.320 No, that's that's Gary. Gary was letting him know that 2:05:28.360 --> 2:05:31.040 he was getting in his ass. Because that's when they 2:05:31.040 --> 2:05:33.840 didn't put they took Gary. They took de Las off. 2:05:33.880 --> 2:05:37.200 Michael put Gary on. So Gary, you know, I used 2:05:37.240 --> 2:05:38.680 to run down the court. I'd be and I'd be 2:05:38.720 --> 2:05:43.760 like showing the glove. I'd be like the glove. Garyol 2:05:43.760 --> 2:05:45.960 giving his back the ball away and gave him flashy 2:05:46.000 --> 2:05:50.200 glove to that's you see Michael looking back at flashing 2:05:50.200 --> 2:05:52.800 that glove side. He didn't like that ship. That's the ship. 2:05:52.840 --> 2:05:54.960 That's the ship. That's the ship there. That's you had 2:05:55.000 --> 2:05:57.680 to get Michael going. Man, when you see that look 2:05:57.800 --> 2:06:02.200 right there, you got some problems coming back because now 2:06:02.240 --> 2:06:03.680 he don't want to talk to you. Now he got 2:06:03.720 --> 2:06:05.960 something to prove to you. He got another problem. 2:06:05.960 --> 2:06:08.200 Get a chance to know Mic off the court, not 2:06:08.280 --> 2:06:08.800 so much. 2:06:08.720 --> 2:06:12.840 Off the court, but definitely battles on the court. Man, 2:06:13.240 --> 2:06:16.160 definitely battles on the choir respecting. I got a lot 2:06:16.160 --> 2:06:19.880 of mad respect for the matter. You know, I've seen 2:06:19.920 --> 2:06:24.360 people be physical with Mike. I've seen him have a 2:06:24.400 --> 2:06:27.360 game plan to stop him. He altered his game plan 2:06:27.440 --> 2:06:30.360 every night. You couldn't stop him. Is he the best 2:06:30.360 --> 2:06:31.160 to ever played the game? 2:06:31.320 --> 2:06:36.160 No? Who is? I mean? 2:06:36.640 --> 2:06:38.440 People get mad at me when I say this, spell 2:06:39.040 --> 2:06:47.240 but Bill Russell, Russell, Bill Russell, you know what I'm saying. 2:06:47.600 --> 2:06:49.320 The best to ever played the game is not gonna 2:06:49.320 --> 2:06:51.800 be the lead scorer. Be'st to play the game is 2:06:51.840 --> 2:06:53.320 gonna be one. It's gonna be in the middle doing 2:06:53.320 --> 2:06:55.840 a lot of different things because he's gonna be able 2:06:55.840 --> 2:06:57.920 to help people out keep the ball and play Bill 2:06:58.000 --> 2:07:01.000 Russell was the first one blocking shots, keeping the you 2:07:01.040 --> 2:07:03.400 know we was blocking shots doing that Ship seventeen rolls 2:07:03.440 --> 2:07:06.120 up in the stairs. He was actually blocking shots and 2:07:06.160 --> 2:07:09.560 they was actually getting fucking layups off of him. So absolutely, man. 2:07:09.600 --> 2:07:12.440 I you know, as I look through the years of basketball, 2:07:13.320 --> 2:07:16.160 I think Will Chairman was a beast, but Ship Bill 2:07:16.200 --> 2:07:19.200 Russell was wearing his ass up. So let's keep it real. 2:07:19.240 --> 2:07:21.400 If you're talking about the all around best player of 2:07:21.440 --> 2:07:24.360 the game, you look and see how many championships they won, 2:07:24.880 --> 2:07:27.680 how long they did it. He's got to be up there, bro,
