Okay? 64 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: All right, okay, You're going to a team that's they 65 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: already screaming like, with so much talent on this team, 66 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: they should be a championship on the team. You're going 67 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: to a team straight out of high school, you know, 68 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: first go whatever to go straight out of high school, 69 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: and it's pressed. You got Eddie Jones, Nick Van Nex 70 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: of Shack, you got all these guys that's in front 71 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: of you, and you come out with the total confidence 72 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: of I'm posed to play on this level. 73 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 74 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 3: Well it's the thing, like, it's probably good for me 75 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 3: to play against those top players. They were all stars, right, 76 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 3: so playing against them every day in practice, iron shot 77 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: sharpens iron. The flip side of that is going to 78 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 3: a team in which I play immediately, right, and all 79 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 3: these stuff, you know, individual stuff that people talk about 80 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 3: the end of the career, the numbers and all that, 81 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: all that stuff would be much better. And he's probably 82 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 3: hiring all of stuff. But going to the Lakers and 83 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: playing behind Eddie Jones and Nick Fanexwell taught me a lot. 84 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 3: Byron Scott was there as a mentor, watching shock kind 85 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 3: of starting to figure things out a little bit. Made 86 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: practices very competitive, and I had to do a lot. 87 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 3: I had to try to be perfect just to get 88 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 3: on the damn floor. If I made a mistake, coaches 89 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 3: yanking me out. So understanding what that feels like every 90 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 3: day in practice, it's got to be a war because 91 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 3: I got to prove that I deserve to play. I 92 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 3: deserve to be here. Every play matters. And so that's 93 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 3: how that raised me that. 94 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: Way, was because I was taught like that too, Like 95 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: if you want to play, and you want to play 96 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: during game day, you show it in practice. 97 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, man, listen, our vets would come to practice and 98 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 3: they wouldn't want practice back to backs thirty five minutes 99 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 3: or whatever, And me and the fishers say, not our problem. Yeah, right, 100 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 3: now you're getting all this get yeah, we're talking and 101 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 3: we would drive them crazy, but you know, we were 102 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 3: just young and you know, wanted to prove ourselves. 103 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: And you were in a way when you decided to 104 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: go out of high school, did you think about college? 105 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: Like was it a college that you was going to 106 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 2: go to? 107 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: And yeah, it was tough for me because I went 108 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: through a whole process of thinking it through, trying to 109 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 3: think it through as clearly as I could, right and like, 110 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 3: you know, my two top schools were Duke in North 111 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 3: Carolina and then trying to figure out why and coach 112 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: k had a reputation for letting guys play at the time. 113 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 3: Grant Hill was the player that was there, and you 114 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 3: know he used to spread the floor. You know, he 115 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 3: ran screen rolls and he's kind of ahead of its 116 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 3: time and how he was running the game with Duke 117 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 3: with a spread offense and saying you want to do 118 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 3: the same thing with me. And then on the flip 119 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 3: side of that, it was Carolina and Dean Smith. 120 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: Didn't do that. He did the opposite. 121 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 3: He had a system, he had a structure, but his 122 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 3: players came out fundamentally sound and ready for to get 123 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 3: basketball right. So those were the two teams, and Dean 124 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 3: Smith stopped recruiting me. He sent me a letter and said, listen, 125 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 3: everybody I talked to seems to think you're going to 126 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 3: go pro. I don't want to waste your time. You know, 127 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 3: best of luck if you change your mind. Just know 128 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 3: this could be a home for you. 129 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: They told you it was gonna be a lottery big. 130 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 3: It wasn't really sure because I was like, the guard 131 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 3: to come out of high school hadn't been double before, 132 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So it was like guards can't. 133 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: Do that sort of thing. So it was kind of 134 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 2: up in the air. Yeah, it's up in the air. 135 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 4: Talk about the difference of when you came in straight 136 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 4: out of high school, you went into a league and 137 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 4: your team grown men, people, got kids, families and all 138 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 4: of that, as opposed to now, you know, these guys 139 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: come in nineteen whatever. They got plenty of guys in 140 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 4: they age group. Everybody around them is the same. Like, 141 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 4: talk about how different and how different and how difficult 142 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 4: that was for you coming in literally at eight team 143 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 4: and a real grown man. Like everybody say, when you 144 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 4: get to the NBA you in a grown man's league. 145 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 4: But right now it's more of a young man's league 146 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 4: than like when you came in, it was a true 147 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 4: grown man. 148 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 149 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 3: Well now it's like college, just that you don't go 150 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 3: to classes right level. Back then it was true grown men. 151 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 3: And I think there was positives and negatives to that, 152 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 3: like the negatives that didn't relate to any of them. 153 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 3: And there are certain things that they could do as 154 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 3: a team that I couldn't do. You go out to 155 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 3: a to a certain club as a team, go out 156 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 3: to a bar as a team. I can't go like 157 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 3: I legally can't go like us. 158 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: You know what, it was? 159 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: It was hard, and I think that actually I had 160 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 3: nothing to do. So what am I gonna do? I'm 161 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 3: gonna play basketball, study basketball. So I think that's where 162 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 3: now I think about it, some of my behavior originated 163 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 3: from and so I got into that habit. So even 164 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 3: when I became you know, legal, I still wasn't going 165 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 3: to hang out with the team because I was so 166 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 3: conditioned to focus on one thing and one thing only. 167 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 4: So speaking on that, I've talked to my boys and 168 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 4: everybody about this. I played in LA for four years. 169 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 4: I've never seen you anywhere other than the Staples. YEA 170 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 4: like literally, like I don't know how you do it 171 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 4: and how it happens. And I've had something my team 172 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 4: are y'all you ever see like n I ain't have 173 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: like you the Black Bruce Wayne, you take. 174 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 3: Well, I was obsessive, bro, I was really obsessive about 175 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 3: this game. And like to me, everything was competitive advantage 176 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 3: as well. I didn't want to be around guys that 177 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 3: you know, see me out and knowing I'm not working. 178 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 2: I don't want that, you know. 179 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 3: And I was really I was really about that life 180 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 3: like I was. I was going at it and then 181 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 3: to know what I'm doing now, I had to prepare 182 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 3: for that early. So like at twenty, I started thinking about, Oh, 183 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: I got to think about what comes at the end, 184 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 3: all right. 185 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: Writing. 186 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 3: I didn't know it was going to be films and 187 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 3: novels and all that sort of stuff, but I knew 188 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 3: it was gonna be something around writing. So I had 189 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 3: to practice that. So when I wasn't playing basketball, spending 190 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 3: time with my wife and family, I was writing, you know, 191 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,599 Speaker 3: So I didn't have time to be going out and 192 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 3: doing all sort of stuff. 193 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 2: Not to say I didn't do it, but at at 194 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 2: one point you was writing reps too, I was. I was. 195 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 3: That actually helped me a lot, helped me a lot 196 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: because it helped me with similes, metaphors, you know, with 197 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,599 Speaker 3: the creative writing aspect of it and being able to 198 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 3: say things in a condensed format. How can you say 199 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 3: a lot in one bar? How can you minimize you know, 200 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 3: the arc of what you're trying to tell? Helped me 201 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 3: a lot and get somebody to like go through this 202 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 3: story with you that you're telling. 203 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, and like the rhythm of the words, like that 204 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,599 Speaker 4: makes more sense because I thought it was just like 205 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 4: you was like all the rest of the East Coast dudes, 206 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 4: they all think they can rab Philly, your sign a 207 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 4: little bit of a little bit of to like, you. 208 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 3: Know, Philadelphia, you know, certainly it was you know, rap 209 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 3: game in Philadelphia. You know, you know, we believe we're 210 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,599 Speaker 3: better than anybody from anywhere, right what I'm saying. So 211 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: it's a little bit a little bit of that too. 212 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 3: But like at the time, I didn't understand what it 213 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 3: was that I was learning. But looking back, and certainly 214 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 3: because like on a podcast show, for example, like The Punies, 215 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 3: right when you listen to the show, there's a lot 216 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 3: of harmony and rhythm. Even in the back and forth 217 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 3: of the dialogue between characters, there's a certain rhythm that 218 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 3: you that ear has to be in tune too, and 219 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 3: that just comes from from music. 220 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: So what made you start the punities talk about that? 221 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 4: The podcast, you know, and a lot of your stuff 222 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 4: and the content. I like the fact that it's geared 223 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 4: toward the kids and trying to help them learn and 224 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 4: just getting them especially with the books. Man, because my 225 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 4: fifteen year old he's he's a big reader and like 226 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 4: he wanted the Wiznar books this and that he wants 227 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 4: the new book. So like for him it's something like 228 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 4: gold because he's for real, like a kid that has 229 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 4: a high you know, reading IQ and a high reading level. 230 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 4: And he's originally from La so he Kobe is you 231 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 4: already know?

And then now you heard about this book. 233 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 4: So it's dope to see how you inspiring kids in 234 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 4: that manner like that they want to go get the book. 235 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 4: It's like you know, of course they want to go 236 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 4: get your shoes or you come out with a ball 237 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 4: or the jersey, but like the book is a whole 238 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 4: different lane that you inspiring the kids. 239 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: Well, what made you go that direction? 240 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: The kids are our future, and so like, how can 241 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 3: I take information that I've learned my twenty years of 242 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 3: playing and before that, and to steal it down. 243 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 2: To teach kids at an early age? 244 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 3: Teaching these things at nine ten years old, how to 245 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 3: deal with pressure, how to deal with anxiety and these 246 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 3: sort of things. How can I distill these messages down 247 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 3: at an early age so that these kids grow up 248 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 3: with the leg up and the punitis was something that 249 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 3: was just fun. Like, I don't see any shows for 250 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 3: children anymore that are fun. So every show that's for 251 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: kids in balls, animals. Enough of the damn animals. I 252 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 3: don't want to hear about a damn talking chicken anymore. Like, like, 253 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 3: I'm done. Give me real kids dealing with real issues, 254 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 3: playing sports, which is the greatest metaphor we have for 255 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 3: life and learning from each other. Get the parents out 256 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 3: of there, get the overbearing coaches out of there, Let 257 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 3: the kids hang out and trash talk each other and learn. 258 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: From each other. Yeah, yeah, learn that confidence. 259 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: And you had a bunch of teammates, all star teammates, 260 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame teammates. What teammate that you took something 261 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: from that stuck with. 262 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 2: You for your career. A couple of things. 263 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 3: One was more tactical in nature, which was Eddie Jones, 264 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 3: And he taught me how to chase guards around screens 265 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 3: off the ball, so I kept getting hit with screens 266 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: on the ball. He kind of shadowing, He was thick, 267 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 3: he was great. Even he trailed behind you, trail behind 268 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 3: the outside and shoulder and once you get around the 269 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 3: pick body of the hip and slide slide right through that. 270 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 2: Though. 271 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, he taught me that. That helped me out a lot, 272 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 3: and I use that forever. Gary Payne as well taught 273 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 3: me how to get through screens on the ball, you know. 274 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 3: So I think those two tactical things, yeah, because like 275 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 3: you know, getting hit with ball screens is like. 276 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 2: The worst feeling for a guard when you guard the ball. 277 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 3: And so he taught me how to move up into 278 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 3: the ball handler, make yourself thin and then slide through 279 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 3: the screen. 280 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,719 Speaker 2: So those are two things that I take with me. 281 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,719 Speaker 1: You think, like our era was so competitive that we 282 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: wasn't giving those secrets out like this era. It's like, 283 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: you know, but like we always we never got a 284 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: chance to sit down and have conversation with you because 285 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: we were so competitive, but it always was a respect 286 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: factor that. 287 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I grew up in the era where you. 288 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: Just play a level of basketball higher than yours and 289 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: that's how you work on your game. 290 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 2: I never was taught how to coming from the hood. 291 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: I never was taught how to go in to the 292 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: gym and put the work in, or you gotta put 293 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: your weight room work in too. 294 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 2: Like I got to the league and I wasn't going 295 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: to the weight room. 296 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: You're playing eighty two games, so my body's breaking on 297 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: down the whole hold. 298 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 2: Like with you, what was that? I had some really 299 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 2: good mentors. Man. 300 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: You know, information wasn't Guys wouldn't share information generally, but 301 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 3: if you ask, they just may, especially if they know 302 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 3: you're cut from the same cloth, like GP. I asked GPGP. 303 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 3: I mean he went on and on and on. He 304 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 3: loves and we were playing. We may face them in 305 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 3: the playoffs. Was in Seattle, right, But he was still 306 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 3: sharing information because of the respect factor of furthering the game. 307 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 3: That's always there. You Mike went sharing information with nobody, 308 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,599 Speaker 3: you know, but he did with me. Why because you 309 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 3: know something about that life?

Yeah, And it's like, how do you 367 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: work on that this consistency? Like my daughter right now, 368 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: her left hand is as good as the right basket. 369 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: I got girls on my team that finished better with 370 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: their left hand than do with their right hand. Yeah, 371 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: just because of the amount of repetition that we do 372 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: every day and just working on the left and there's 373 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: nothing to be done other than just repetition and just 374 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: continue to shoot, shoot, shoot shoot, get comfortable with it. 375 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: And I gave him some some work to do at home. 376 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: And try to eat with your left hand, try to 377 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: write your name with your left hand, brush your teeth 378 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: with your left hands, just so you get comfortable using it. 379 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 2: Those are the things I used to do. 380 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: I feel like when you got a game. In your game, 381 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: you got weapons, like I used to call us superheroes. 382 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: You know, you put the jersey on especially he got 383 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: the right to left cross, so you go hard right, 384 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna dunk like you kind of go through the 385 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: categories of weapons that a person got you your weapons. 386 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: I've never seen a shot that you didn't feel like 387 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: you couldn't make. And even from the adjustment of you 388 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: being athletic to you just got to get to your spots. 389 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 3: The shot that really matters is a pull up shot 390 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 3: because it all comes back to that right and so 391 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 3: you can do all these moves beforehand, they don't matter. 392 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 3: Eventually you don't get to a spot, you're gonna raise 393 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 3: up and shoot. So doing that shot thousands of times 394 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 3: got me so comfortable with the shot that I can 395 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:38,959 Speaker 3: shoot that shot anytime. 396 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 2: There's nothing you can do about it. 397 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: If you shoot a shot thousands of times, I can 398 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 3: change the trajectory anytime I want. I can flatten it 399 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 3: out anytime I want. You can be in my face. 400 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 3: It's not gonna make a difference because it's on auto pilot, 401 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. So like, no matter what 402 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 3: happens and transpires here. Whether it's a jab step or 403 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 3: a crossover or a double or dune matter because when 404 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: I get to that spot and I raise up and shoot, 405 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 3: I've done it thousands of times. 406 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 2: That's in the bottom of the barrel, you know what 407 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 2: I'm saying. So it all comes down to that shot. 408 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: Before I got to the league, you know, were big 409 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: NBA fans. I didn't see you before I got drafted 410 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: being the second best player or arguably the best player 411 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: in the league. You know, I'm definitely a fan because 412 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: you straight out of high school. Yeah, you know what 413 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying. We straight out of high school. When we 414 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: played our rookie year and then seeing y'all play, y'all 415 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: win in that championship that first year, it was no 416 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: question in my mind that she was the second best player. 417 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: You couldn't really show if you was the best player 418 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: because Shaq was so dominant. It was like, Shaq beat 419 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: your team up the whole game, and if the game 420 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: is close, Kobe gonna end it. After that year, I 421 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: think that was the year after you shot the air 422 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: ball in Utah. After that year, what clicked to. 423 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 3: Be, like, I'm badt man on the planet, how to 424 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 3: get stronger like the airballs in Utah, and just show 425 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 3: me any of the strengths. In high school, you played 426 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 3: thirty games, Max, Right, you get to the league, man, 427 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 3: you're playing thirty games before October come around. Man, it's 428 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 3: like and so it wears you down. So it wasn't 429 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 3: I was nervous about the situation or the shots were 430 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 3: off there all right? Online they were short. I gotta 431 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: get stronger. I gotta get stronger. And I'm looking around. 432 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 3: I'm looking at Mike and I'm looking at Mike's physique strong, right, 433 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 3: I'm looking at other guys around the league. They're not 434 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 3: with Treell Spreero is great player, not strong. Mitch Richmond 435 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 3: has a natural base to him, but I can tell 436 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 3: he's not lifting every day. You can look Mike is 437 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 3: Scottie is the dude's got four or five championships by now. 438 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 2: I need to do that, right. 439 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 3: And so that's when I started lifting and started getting 440 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 3: stronger and stronger and stronger and stronger. And that's the 441 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 3: adjustment I made because I had the fundamentals and had 442 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 3: the skill. I learned some things technique wise defensively, but 443 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 3: then I just my physical ability is caught up to 444 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 3: the skill. 445 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: You come off the bench for the Lakers and you 446 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: make the All Star team. You're playing I think it's 447 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden and playing against the Bulls. Michael Jordan like, 448 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: that was one of the best All Star games I've 449 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: ever seen in the history of the game. I want 450 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: to know how you felt about that moment. You're going 451 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: against your idol who's on the other team. You're thinking 452 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: that Eddie Jones and Nick Van Next on Shock they 453 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 1: automatically Finna make the All Star Game and you make 454 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: it too, to be a part of that. 455 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 2: What's that moment? 456 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 3: Like feel it was a huge honor when you see 457 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 3: the boats tallying up and like, wait a minute, I'm 458 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 3: gonna starter on this team. I want to start my 459 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 3: own team, you know, and like it became very serious 460 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 3: to me because I didn't want to make it seem 461 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 3: like I was just some bubblegum player. Yeah, popularity got 462 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 3: me in there.

I look forward to that 473 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 3: competition and uh, you know George Carr, which you know 474 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 3: later in years, became my motivation. We played against Denvers 475 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 3: and never let them win the playoff series because he. 476 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 2: Didn't play me the whole fourth quarter of that game that. 477 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 3: Me and Mike went at it, you know, for three quarters, 478 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 3: and then in the fourth quarter, the crowds waiting for 479 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 3: me to get back in there. He benches me the 480 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 3: whole fourth and it was like, okay, I see it's 481 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 3: on site. When we played the Denver Nuggets and the playoffs, 482 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 3: it was like, hold on, yo, you're never you will 483 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 3: never beat me in the playoff series. 484 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 4: The blame for this, it's not all the ways, y'all, 485 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 4: is his father. 486 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 2: I was so pissed. 487 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 4: I always respected that you came in as a rook 488 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 4: and you know, as a big name superstar rug type 489 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 4: and you jumped into the dunk contests you wanted. 490 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 2: Did your thing. 491 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 4: What do you think about some of the superstars nowadays 492 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 4: just not being in because you know, like you like, uh, 493 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 4: we grew up watching Jordan's Dominantly greats was the ones 494 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 4: that were putting on the show. And I'm not saying 495 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 4: that I don't want to see some of these other boys, 496 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 4: because nowadays some of these other boys got crazy hops too. 497 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 4: I would like to see our super superstars.

And if you a superstar you got bounced. 502 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 2: Go do it? 503 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I agree, And I think the All Star 504 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 3: Game in general needs a little bit vamping because used 505 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 3: to be competitive, used to be competitive, and like fans 506 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 3: want to see the best pickup game in the world, 507 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 3: that's what this is. They want to see you running 508 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 3: up and down and dunking and doing all this crazy 509 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 3: like they want to see what happens when you get 510 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 3: this collection of best basketball players on the planet and 511 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 3: they play and they go head up against each other. Man, 512 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 3: guys played harder right to pick up game in U 513 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 3: c l A. Billions of people watching. Definitely, dude, you know, 514 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 3: I'm so I think the All Star Game needs a 515 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 3: little needs a little changing. Always love competing in them. 516 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 3: I didn't lose many of them. All the time you 517 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 3: took it. We win, Like I don't think me and 518 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 3: CP and we played together. I don't think we've ever 519 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 3: lost a game. And we used to look at each 520 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,239 Speaker 3: other and say, Okay, they don't want to play, we're 521 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 3: gonna fourth quarter, let's go get them. 522 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, ask you just pick up basketball. 523 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: Devin Booker said, you don't post the double team doing 524 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: pick up basketball, but the competition we used to have 525 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: two courts. If you're killing our team and we want 526 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: to stay on the winning court, we're gonna get the 527 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: ball out your hand. But he should be happy. I 528 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: feel that you can double team on on TV and 529 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: off TV. That means that you're so special. You playing 530 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: pick up was people double team and you doing? 531 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? And what you what you do you think about? 532 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 2: Like say you got to send another one? Yeah, send 533 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 2: another one? Man like the coming to send another one? 534 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, But like you know, I understand what Booker saying though, 535 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 3: because in the summertime, you're working on a particular skill set, 536 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 3: and so when you're in an iceolate situation, you want 537 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 3: to try the things that you've been working on in 538 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 3: the gym. When doubles coming, you don't have time to 539 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 3: do that. At the same time, they're on double team 540 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 3: in the season anyway, right, so you got to figure 541 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 3: out how to get around that, how to manipulate those 542 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 3: those those double seasons, you get the practice against what 543 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 3: you're really going to s Yeah, yeah, you get a 544 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 3: chance to measure it where those passing angles or you 545 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: know why I want to send this guy a message 546 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 3: because I'm gonna be playing against him in the season anyway, 547 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 3: whether it was Ricky Davis in the summer time, we're 548 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 3: playing against each other, the double teams coming playing against 549 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 3: the regular season all so the stuff it gives me 550 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 3: bragging rights. It's like even pick up basketball, you need 551 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 3: a double team right now, and the double team wasn't sufficient. 552 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 3: You got to send three motherfuckers out here in summertime. 553 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 2: You know, if you want to have the game, oh, 554 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 2: you're gonna get your ass kicked up. 555 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 3: It's just more of an ability to kind of trash 556 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 3: talk a little bit. Yeah, I always view it as 557 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 3: a competition. 558 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: When Shakla, it's like you couldn't wait to show everything, Yeah, 559 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: everything that you got, Like you went on a tear 560 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: with the forty points in the row to eighty one, 561 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: like them three. 562 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 2: Four years or whatever. 563 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: The reason I ranked certain players that I ranked higher 564 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: than others is be like, how many years did you 565 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,199 Speaker 1: dominate the game out of a ten year span? If 566 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: you got four five years, damn there six years of 567 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: you being the best player, evidently you the best player 568 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: of that generation. But like you went on a tear 569 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: for four or five years straight of just domination. And 570 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: this is when you didn't have a field, you didn't 571 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: have shock. 572 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 2: What was Was it something that you was trying to 573 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 2: prove or it was like yeah, because you know, here's 574 00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 2: the thing. 575 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 3: When I was playing, you know, we get chastised a 576 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,479 Speaker 3: lot for being selfish, saying we just got to fit 577 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 3: into a team. It's about winning championships. Okay, well I 578 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 3: get it, I'm doing it right, run three straight, Okay, 579 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 3: I got it. But I also knew that when my 580 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 3: career is over, they're going to chastise me for the 581 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 3: same thing. And saying, oh, well, You're only great because 582 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 3: you play with Shack, And I'm like, wella hold up, 583 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 3: you ain't have it both ways, bro. 584 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 2: Like you know. 585 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 3: So it was important for me to in shock to 586 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 3: go separate ways because I didn't want people to use 587 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 3: that again. They still do, but it was important that 588 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 3: I win championships without them, and you get a glimpse 589 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 3: of what I could have done individually had I not 590 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 3: played with you, see what I'm saying. So that was 591 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,239 Speaker 3: a big driving factor. It's like, hold on, don't get 592 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 3: it fucked up now, Like, yeah, I'm doing this thing. 593 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 3: I'm playing with Shaq, and it's like, might put them 594 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 3: with Wilt. Shack was a force in nature, right, so 595 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 3: you got to kind of take it back seat you. 596 00:26:58,560 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 2: But once that. 597 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 3: Governor's off, like hold on now, yeahdiculous twenty four and eight. 598 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: I know number eight, Kobe Bryant. Everybody in the world 599 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: is stuck on that. And just all of a sudden 600 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: that you decided to revamp yourself and turn the twenty four. 601 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: Why the number twenty four? About all the numbers that 602 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 1: you could have. 603 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 3: Showed a couple of things. Twenty four is the first 604 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 3: number award in high school. My freshman year, I was 605 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 3: number twenty four, and then philosophically, for me, it carried 606 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 3: the significance because it was about approaching every day isaka 607 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 3: was my last and I had to have that mentality 608 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 3: because it ships shocks going. I have to drive this 609 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 3: team every day. You know, there's no days off become 610 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 3: in practice. We're going right, And so every time I 611 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 3: look at that number, it's like, today's the most important day. 612 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 3: Today is the day, right, It's one day. That's it right, 613 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 3: And that helped me, you know, stay locked in. 614 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:54,880 Speaker 2: The triangle offense. 615 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: When I got to the league, I knew y'all played 616 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: like I felt like if I got traded to the Lakers, 617 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 1: I already know the player. It's one play. I got 618 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: a couple of side but y'all run this one play 619 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: in today's era, how today kids play? You think the 620 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 1: triangle will work in this You have the right people 621 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: to teach it. Yeah, because y'all slow the game. You 622 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: had to play at y'all pace, no matter how. 623 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 3: Can be sped up to right so it conforms to 624 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 3: the talent that you have. My thirteen year old daughters 625 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 3: team runs a triangle right, but it's Like, the thing 626 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 3: about the triangle offenses makes it so deadly is that 627 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 3: it gives you a structure, and within that structure you 628 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 3: have complete freedom. And so even though defensively you know 629 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 3: what it is, the sequence that we're executing, we have 630 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 3: counters to it, counter to everything, and we all know them. 631 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 3: It's hard to beat that, right because we can feel 632 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 3: can start out and say we want to run center opposite. 633 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,239 Speaker 3: That's the sequence we want to start with. But now 634 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 3: if you deny the wing on that center opposite, that 635 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 3: plays off. Now we have counters that come around. Now. 636 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: I used to hate when Robert or used to come 637 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: up to the box free throw line, grab the ball 638 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: and you back cut. 639 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, looking back every time. 640 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 3: It's the back door step right, So like, but that 641 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 3: helped me game plan. So like, these players now play 642 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 3: accidental basketball and it drives me and feel crazy because 643 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 3: it's all penetrating pitch. You may make the shot, you 644 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 3: may not. You have no idea who's going to be 645 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 3: open or whatever. It's accidental basketball. We played basketball with purpose. 646 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 3: If I got the ball, if Derek Fish is on 647 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 3: the wing, I'm at the top. I know by skyt 648 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 3: reports that you guys like to deny the top. All right, cool, 649 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 3: dew the top. I'll move up a little bit more. 650 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 3: Drag you out here comes or stepping in the hole? 651 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 3: Catch it here, I go back door, there's the drop off. 652 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 2: I go right. 653 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 3: So it's playing those sequences and understanding what the defense 654 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 3: is going to do again. So that made them dangerous. 655 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 3: That's why Chicago was so dangerous because they knew how 656 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 3: Utah was gonna play these actions. And then they all 657 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 3: all five of them. 658 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: Took advantage of and they always keep you with space 659 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: and always all the time lap over each other. 660 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 2: Always. 661 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 3: They were really big on you know, having ten to 662 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 3: fifteen foot spacing always. 663 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: Coming into it. 664 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 4: I felt like I was a offensive score, right, you know, 665 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 4: the highest who come to I was a score. But 666 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 4: then you look at dudes like you, I don't know, 667 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 4: what is the mentality that when you get all right, 668 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 4: you got twenty, you got thirty. What makes in your 669 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 4: mind when you got thirty, most people like all right, cool, 670 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 4: like I'm going forty, now, going fifty, now, I'm going sixty. 671 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 4: Now I'm going what is happening in your tough process 672 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 4: to it? Because like at some point, I know you tired, 673 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 4: because because the people don't understand square buckets like that 674 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 4: that take energy. So how do you continue to just go? 675 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 4: Because I was in New York when you got the sixty, 676 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 4: and God bless young boy Wilson Chandler. He recovered. 677 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 2: He is good, you know, think as well his life 678 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: and his girl. He's still playing now, so you know 679 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 2: he made it through that. 680 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 4: But I'm sitting here watching it and I'm like, yo, 681 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 4: he's not stopping. 682 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 2: He don't look like he want to stop. 683 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 4: He still want to get one hundred if he can. 684 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 4: Where does that mentality come from? When you see most 685 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 4: guys thirty forty and they kind. 686 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 3: Of chill out, like all right, I got this. No, uh, 687 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 3: it's a competition and my mission is to destroy you. 688 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 3: It's it's not you know, I mean like I don't 689 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 3: say it, you know, like we're playing. I'm not stopping 690 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 3: that thirty Like I'm keep going until you figure out 691 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 3: something else to do. 692 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep going, you know. 693 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 3: And like that New York game, I knew d'An Tony's 694 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 3: philosophies are never the double guy that's hot, because he 695 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 3: always thinks they're gonna cool off eventually right. So I 696 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 3: understood that. So once I got rolling, I knew that 697 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 3: was gonna be the case. But then watching film leading 698 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: into the game, I knew Wilson. I knew he was 699 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 3: just gonna play sound defense, right. He wasn't gonna gamble, 700 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 3: he wasn't gonna try to block a shot. He wasn't 701 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 3: you know, He's gonna try to play good position defense. 702 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 3: So I knew I could get a good look. So 703 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 3: from that standpoint, I said, all, I just gotta take 704 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 3: my time, be on balance, knock him down. I was. 705 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 4: I was like, yo, at some point when he catched 706 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 4: the ball, you gotta put him in the first row, 707 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 4: put him right in Spike Lee's Spike over there pumping 708 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 4: them up. He talking, and my boy ain't saying nothing. 709 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 4: He decided, being a good young boy, gonna play hard. 710 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 4: Spike Lee over here getting them on, Like, how you 711 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 4: gonna talk to this man? 712 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 2: You ain't gotta check them.

A lot of times in 823 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 3: the children's space, be kind of dumb stuff down, the 824 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 3: materials down because it's for children. 825 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 2: They're not going to tell the difference. 826 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 3: But I feel like if you create something that's high 827 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 3: in value, understand that it's been cared for, that means 828 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 3: that they matter and they do right for parents as well. 829 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 3: To look at this and you put this book up 830 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 3: and you can feel that there's been a lot of 831 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,320 Speaker 3: care put into it. You may not understand all the 832 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 3: hidden gems that are in this book yet, but you 833 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 3: can feel them, so you understand this is. 834 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 2: A studio that we can trust. 835 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 3: And then for the story itself, it's about how do 836 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,880 Speaker 3: we teach kids how to handle the inner monologue, the 837 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 3: emotional things that we experience. 838 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 2: How do we teach them that? 839 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 3: Which is why I had to be tennis because tennis 840 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,439 Speaker 3: is such an individual sport are. 841 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 2: But different than golf. 842 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 3: Golf you're dealing with the elements and yourself, and tennis 843 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 3: you're dealing with yourself, the elements and that person across 844 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 3: the net from you trying to beat you. Right, So 845 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 3: you got to have those inner conversations, navigate those while 846 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 3: competing with somebody else. That's a crossing that from you. 847 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,439 Speaker 3: The story behind it? What inspired you to do that story? Well, 848 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 3: the way I look at it, inspiration drives the world. 849 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,439 Speaker 3: So if I'm looking at the kingdoms and the world 850 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 3: that we create, inspiration is what decides who's going to 851 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 3: be the ruler of these particular worlds, all right, So 852 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 3: then how you inspire. You can inspire a myriad of ways. Right. 853 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 3: You can inspire through love, Right, you can inspire through fear, right, hatred. 854 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 3: There's a lot of ways to inspire. And so how 855 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 3: these athletes in the world using their platform to inspire? Right, 856 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 3: And that's where the conflict ensues and all our stories. 857 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 2: I know what I want to ask you. 858 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 4: Now, you know you like Bruce Wayne, Now you got 859 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 4: and stuff like that. But I want to know, like 860 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 4: all of us, when you first got in the lid, 861 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 4: you got some bread in your pocket, what did you 862 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 4: do to somewhere? 863 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 2: Your mom or your dad looked at you, like, what's 864 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 2: the hell? We all did something? 865 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, nothing like that, but like the 866 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 3: first thing I did, like when I came out here 867 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 3: and I got some per diem. I just want to 868 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 3: go somewhere, right, like in Philadelphia. Everything's relatively close, you 869 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 3: know what. I'm staying in Santa Monica. And so I 870 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 3: get a taxi, YO call it yellow. Just get a taxi. 871 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 3: Kids don't know what that is. And I get in 872 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 3: the cab and I say, well, take me to a mall. 873 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 3: Take me to the mall.

I'm hungry. 883 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 3: I want a sandwich. I look at the menu of 884 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 3: sandwiches like six bucks.

Wow. 890 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck just retired. Yeah, he was saying it was 891 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: a mental drain on him with the injuries. I kind 892 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: of feel that because eight of my ten years it 893 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,800 Speaker 1: was a mental drain every day with the injuries. 894 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 2: You had. 895 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,360 Speaker 1: Injury after injury after injury. You played with a broken 896 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: finger the whole year. All that just describe to, like 897 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 1: other athletes, the focus and how you got to kind 898 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: of compete with yourself to get yourself back on the 899 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: level to steady go. I know, we all go to 900 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: the pain and stuff, and it's the hardest thing you 901 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: can do because it's so easy to give up. 902 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really hard, man, because it's such a tedious process. 903 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 3: And what I found helpful is to not look at 904 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 3: the top of the mountain because the mountain is so 905 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 3: damn daunting, you know, it's like, so instead I just 906 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 3: choose to focus on one step by the time, and 907 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 3: then by the time you realize you at the top 908 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 3: of the mountain again. And that's how I handle all 909 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,320 Speaker 3: my recoveries. It's just focus on the next thing, Focus 910 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 3: on the next thing, focus on the next thing. And also, 911 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 3: you know how time flies. Time goes by really fast. 912 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 3: So like when you're sitting here at the moment, deal 913 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,359 Speaker 3: with the injury, that's a nine month injury. I can't 914 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 3: do that, But when twelve months go by, you're don't 915 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 3: wish you did, because it goes by like that, you 916 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. So that's always been my approach, 917 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 3: is just one step at the time, one step at 918 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 3: the time. And I didn't want the injuries dictating when 919 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 3: I retire. I wanted to control lasts like no, my body, 920 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 3: sit down, be humble. You're not You're not telling me 921 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 3: when I'm walking away, right, I'm gonna tell you when 922 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 3: I'm ready to go. 923 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 2: Man, you know, appreciate you coming on the show.
