People 177 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 5: say when he gets in the game, he's supposed to 178 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 5: shoot the ball, he's supposed to make shots. You both 179 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 5: know rhythm. It's rhythm. Rhythm, it's rhythm. If you don't 180 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 5: get the ball three four, five minutes, you just playing defense. 181 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 5: When you when you get the ball, you gotta get 182 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 5: your rhythm together. 183 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: I don't need to cut you off. 184 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: For those that don't know, though, when coaches don't want 185 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: to play on their team or when they want it, 186 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: they trying to ship a guy, the person they do 187 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: is throw them and throw him in garbage minutes. When 188 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: They know he don't have enough time taxi show what 189 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: he can do, so he looks bad in those five 190 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: those five minutes, so that gives the team the reason 191 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: to trade them. That they do that on purpose. They've 192 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: done it to Alla Night, that to a lot of stars. 193 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: So a lot of y'all don't know that. They put 194 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: you into garbage time because they know you're a rhythm 195 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: guy and want They know you don't want to go 196 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: in at all, so you look bad and that gives 197 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: them the incentive to trade you. 198 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 5: Go ahead, when you're just sitting in the corner, you 199 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 5: just go sit in the corner. I know Luca bad 200 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 5: boy one on one, he's a bad man. But if 201 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 5: like how howser from the Celtics when he comes in, 202 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 5: what do the Celtics find it? They we run an 203 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 5: offense for you right away, right now, right now, right now. 204 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 5: They run in place for Clay right now, right now, 205 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 5: right now. And I hope they do run place for 206 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 5: Clay this year. You know, it's all up to Luca, 207 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 5: because Luca running the whole show there, you know. So 208 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 5: if you don't run offense, your guys are just gonna 209 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 5: stand there and it's and it's gonna be problems. It's 210 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 5: gonna be problems and people you're not in rhythm. So 211 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 5: when when they was talking about my son not playing 212 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 5: and he coming in and he not shooting the ball, well, 213 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 5: first of all, you got to get the ball. You 214 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 5: gotta get the ball. First of all, you gotta have 215 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 5: somebody says some picks for you. You gotta you gotta 216 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 5: run some offense for me. And then another thing is 217 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 5: you got to get in the game. If you're not 218 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 5: in the game, you can't shoot, you can't play. So 219 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 5: so so it was frustrating for him to understand, to 220 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 5: know that he could go out there and help the team, 221 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 5: but for some reason, he didn't play. So I had to. 222 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 5: I had to talk to him. I was dead, talking 223 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 5: to him, I was dead, consoling him I was dead, 224 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 5: just like a father's supposed to be, and making him 225 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 5: understand it's gonna be alright. It's better days to come. 226 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 4: So new chapter now for him and Detroit. Yes, a 227 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 4: team that hasn't played well. They got a new coach, 228 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 4: jb a friend of the program hoops and and expectations 229 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,319 Speaker 4: for him this year to kind of find his rhythm again. Yeah, try, 230 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 4: He's still younger. 231 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, he turned in what he'll be thirty three next 232 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 5: year already already, Man, they've been heavier than my way heavier. 233 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 4: And when you think about that, I mean obviously first bout, 234 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 4: Hall of Famer, All Star, All NBA, and just where 235 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,599 Speaker 4: the money is today for players. 236 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 5: I talked to a lot of former players when I 237 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 5: was playing. They would be like, I would give up 238 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 5: my rings to make the money. That's when we was 239 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 5: making the money that we was making, you know, like 240 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 5: four or five million dollars here in there. But I 241 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 5: just think, you know, they set the stage for us, 242 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 5: you know Magic, you know, Bob Coosey, who else, Rick Barry, 243 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 5: those guys set the stage for us, Bob McAdoo, you know. 244 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 5: So it's it's when I am talking, you know, it 245 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 5: frustrates them, but they got to understand that era was 246 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 5: that era, and what David S. Thurn did was turned 247 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 5: everything around and made it globally. And when it went global, 248 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 5: everything is everything now and social media. 249 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: You know, if. 250 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 5: Socbody's a brand now, Yes, everybody's a brand now. And 251 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 5: when I see the older players that played before us, 252 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 5: I always give them homage, you know, I always talk 253 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 5: to them, always and the young guys. You know, a 254 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 5: lot of these young guys don't know these guys and 255 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 5: they need to, you know, like Anthony Edwards, you need 256 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 5: to know these guys. 257 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 4: What kind of seems like.

But when 416 00:18:55,520 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 5: we played, we we had we had an attitude m. 417 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 2: Hm meant something. 418 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 4: And you could be you could be cool just after 419 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 4: the game, right after the game, not during the game. 420 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 4: You might fight when your homeboys during the game and 421 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 4: then drink a beer with him after that exactly. 422 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 5: That's the way it was. 423 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 4: I would say, these kids are skilled as a motherfucker though. 424 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 4: I just think the skill level is higher than it's 425 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 4: ever been. 426 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 3: I just think the i Q. 427 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 4: Playing without the ball, off the ball, understanding pick and rolls, 428 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 4: how to get off when you don't have the ball 429 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 4: in your hands. I think that's what a lot of 430 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 4: these kids and NBA players like these days past. 431 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 5: Just staying right while you're standing. You're not going to 432 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 5: get the ball back. You know, why don't you cut? 433 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 5: Why don't you do something? But that's a lack of coaching. Coaching, 434 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 5: coaching to this error. 435 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: To explain the errors, is this eraror they worried about 436 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: getting a bucket. We knew how to get somebody else 437 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: as bucket, right, And. 438 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,360 Speaker 2: That says a lot. That says a lot. 439 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 5: That's why I like watching Golden State. I like watching Ballston, 440 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 5: you know, I like watching those teams because they move 441 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 5: the ball energy, they find its energy is fine. The 442 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 5: right person, you know, one past you might want to 443 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 5: shoot and that man open right there. Here you go, 444 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 5: no hesitation, I get you another one. That's where it's 445 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 5: supposed to be. 446 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 2: One thing I like about like coaches like Don Nels. 447 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 2: We talked about and and Rick Carli. 448 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: Those type of coaches that told me what they expected 449 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: me suspected from me to the beginning of the season. 450 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: So when the season went out started, I knew exactly 451 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: what my job was.

Suppose seems 453 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: like he's that type of coach. Supposed most likely would 454 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: be the coach for the nest Olympics here in LA 455 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: and I think it deserves it.

We was down one 515 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 5: and Antonio make dice went in for uh we were 516 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 5: shooting a free throw and Antonio make dice. They put 517 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 5: in and Tonio make dice. He went up there and 518 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 5: he tipped in the ball. Guy box him out, but 519 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 5: you know how strong an athletic, he kind of jumped 520 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 5: over and tipped the ball in and we went up 521 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 5: by one. I think it was Lithuania. But we went 522 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 5: up by one and we had to go down and 523 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 5: play defense and somebody missed a three, got the rebound 524 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 5: and got it and we we won the game. But 525 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 5: we was in jeopardy that game. And if if mctonia 526 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 5: or mcdie didn't go in that game, we we would 527 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 5: not have won that game. Well, no, he came. 528 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 2: It came out the room. 529 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, no he didn't. It wasn't in the rim. 530 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 5: He tipped it. He was supposed to be. It was 531 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 5: a free throw. Somebody was supposed to box him out, 532 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 5: and he tipped it in. He jumped over them and 533 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 5: tipped it in. But you know ano. Another thing about 534 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 5: fever roups. When we played in the nineties, it was fyscal, 535 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 5: So it was easy for us to go there and play. 536 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 5: When we these guys is they gotta get equipped for that. 537 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 5: They gotta get ready for that because they're not used 538 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 5: to that. There's no flopping it over there, you fall down. 539 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 3: I don't know. 540 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 5: I watched the Friends game, the women's in the men. 541 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen that. 542 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 5: They was like that, that's not a foul. This is 543 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 5: this is this is Chicago, New York, l A. We 544 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 5: out on the street, were on the street. Look when 545 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,239 Speaker 5: I call a foul, I call a foul. But other 546 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 5: than that, you better play some basketball. That's what we 547 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 5: gotta get acclimated to because we're not acclimated that. And 548 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 5: once they go through that and get acclimated to it, 549 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,719 Speaker 5: then it'll be all right. But I mean, I mean, 550 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 5: I mean, not Danny be all right. But we we okay. 551 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 5: But you know, it's tough to go from what we're 552 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 5: doing here. 553 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 3: And not flag football to te football. 554 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, same thing, right to tackle football. 555 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 5: That's kind of tough. It's tough. It's not easy. 556 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 557 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 4: There was recently a video with the debate about your 558 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 4: crossover and ais crossover. Later you later came out and 559 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 4: said the video was bullshit. But I mean, you're you're 560 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 4: you tipped two step and then AI is hanging crossover. 561 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 4: I want to talk to you, where did your move 562 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 4: come from? 563 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 5: Originally my move came from I practice. I practice. I practiced, 564 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 5: and so when I when I asked a kid, I said, 565 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 5: how come you can't go work out by yourself? He's like, well, 566 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 5: you know it's too hot outside. Well you know, I don't. 567 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 5: Then they'd be like, I don't know. I said, you 568 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 5: don't want it, you don't want it? I said, I 569 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 5: wanted it. I used to ride two miles, maybe a 570 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 5: mile and a half, with no seat on my bike, 571 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 5: put my ball in the frame, had two nets, get 572 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 5: to the park, climb up on the rim, put my 573 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 5: nets down, put on both sides, and I used to 574 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 5: play my mind that I'm playing against somebody I want 575 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: to kill. So if I'm playing against Isaiah Thomas, all right, 576 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 5: or if I'm playing against you, or I'm playing against you, 577 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 5: but y'all not in front of me, but I'm in 578 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 5: my mind, I'm going at you full game speed. So 579 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 5: a free throw line, have coret free throw line. I'm 580 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 5: the first ten. I'm making layups. First ten's up back, 581 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 5: I'm making laps. Then I'm shooting ten free throws. Then 582 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 5: after that I'm shooting all floaters up and down but 583 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 5: I'm doing moves and I'm crossing over and I you 584 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 5: know what, I didn't know I had to cross. So 585 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 5: I'm just out there dribbling. I'm just out there going 586 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 5: through stuff. Because everybody say when I was, you know, 587 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 5: coming up, that guy's betting you, that guy's betting you. 588 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 5: You got to prove yourself. I always had to prove myself. 589 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 5: So I work on my game because I wanted everybody 590 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 5: to be wrong about me. And that's how you work 591 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 5: on your game. You got to go out there and 592 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 5: do it yourself. 593 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 4: Creativity though everything, you just say, that's creativity out there 594 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 4: playing one on one against nuts. 595 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 5: So right, you know, on on. So when I when 596 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 5: I came against you, I didn't done this so much. 597 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 5: I've I've been playing in my mind. I've been playing you. 598 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 5: So I do a move. It just was easy for me. 599 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,239 Speaker 4: How has the crossover evolved in these combinations of all 600 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 4: that just a little bit of We talked about the 601 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 4: skill level being, you know, as high as it's ever been. 602 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 4: But how do you think the crossover has evolved? 603 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 2: Man? 604 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 5: It evolved, Uh, tremendously.

I didn't know how it was. 1056 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 5: I was at practice, but I really, you know, was 1057 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 5: doing my thing, and so it was kind of it 1058 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 5: was tough. But I could have bridged the gap between 1059 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 5: Nelly and with Web and made Web understand how cool 1060 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 5: Nelly was, how cool Nelly was, and how he was 1061 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 5: trying to take his game to another level. Web wanted 1062 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,319 Speaker 5: to just catch the ball and take his man one 1063 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 5: on one. Nelly envisioned Web and doing the same thing 1064 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 5: that he did in Sacramento in his later years, pointward, 1065 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:38,800 Speaker 5: point forward, like he could have done that his rookie 1066 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:43,439 Speaker 5: off the rip, But at that particular time, Web wasn't 1067 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,399 Speaker 5: interested in that. He was interested. I need the ball 1068 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 5: over here, cleared out. Let me do my thing, all right. 1069 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 5: I set a pick, we thought a lid. We'd do 1070 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,279 Speaker 5: this and that and this and that. But but I 1071 00:53:54,440 --> 00:54:00,120 Speaker 5: think Web understood once he got to see sacramental what 1072 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,840 Speaker 5: what Nelly wanted when he was a rookie, because he 1073 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 5: saw he saw what he had with his tools as 1074 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 5: a basketball player. We saw it in Sacramento. If you 1075 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 5: could have seen it early on he. 1076 00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:16,000 Speaker 2: Believed in it. Even when we was go to State. 1077 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 3: He came back for a minute. 1078 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 4: He came back to that work, and then Nelly pulled 1079 00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 4: some bullsh on Web again, and Web just left. 1080 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I tell you this. If you yeah, Nelly will 1081 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 5: do that. Nelly will do that. Nelly will do that. 1082 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 5: He like, look, man, I mean he'll believed in you. 1083 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:35,879 Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, he's the same same coach that made 1084 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 1: me a captain for the first time, but also the 1085 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,120 Speaker 1: first coach to ask me where. 1086 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 2: I wanted to get traded to. 1087 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 3: The time is up? 1088 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: Son knocked my daughter.
