217
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: really educated. They weren't sending me out of there that

218
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,640

287
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: Lebron spoke about his decision, which prompted the immediate back

288
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: lish from both Cleveland ownership and fans. I took the

289
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: villain rod because I let the media and I was young.

290
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: I was twenty five years old, and a lot don't understand.

291
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: That was the first time that I ever left home.

292
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: Even when I got drafted by the Calves, my first

293
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: seven years with the Calves, I still stayed in my

294
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: hometown of Akron. It was the first time ever going

295
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: to Miami. When I did the decision, I made an

296
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: announcement that was going to Miami. My whole mindset was

297
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: I wanted to do something different. I wanted to treat

298
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: it like a college where guys get their caps. I

299
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: didn't know, or I didn't know or feel like the

300
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: hate that I got from that, the backlash from that

301
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: was going to happen because I felt I was doing

302
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: it so I was allowed to media. I allowed everybody

303
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: to put me in a dark place. The reason why

304
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: the reason I played the way I played in the

305
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: finals is because I wasn't me. She had that black hat,

306
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: she had that villa rode. I'm going to get back

307
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: to bed my ef him self and boom. We came in,

308
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: ball to the wall and we were able to make

309
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: it happen. It was tough on me, but it definitely

310
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: made me who I am ultimately, especially as a basketball

311
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: player and also as a man.

312
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 2: Ojo Joe, what the foughts I think he had? He

313
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 2: had to take that route, Uncle Ojo. He had to

314
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 2: go to Miami. I'm gonna tell you why. Boston had

315
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 2: just got KG and Ray Allen and that's who put

316
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 2: Brun out.

317
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 4: It was gonna be hard for him.

318
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 2: He putting up forty five fifty points against them dudes,

319
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 2: and he can't beat him.

320
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 4: He had to he had to go get some help.

321
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 4: He had to. Yea yeah.

322
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 2: If not, he wouldn't have won one in Cleveland. You know,

323
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 2: for him to go to Miami for them, what four

324
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: years or four years on four? He had won two titles.

325
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,040
Speaker 2: You know, know what it's like to win. Now he

326
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 2: got that under his belt. Now he take it back

327
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 2: to Cleveland with a young and with a young Kyrie,

328
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: and they brought Kevin Love in.

329
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 4: It will cooking.

330
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: It's tough because you know he's like, I'm just announcing

331
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 1: that I'm going Yeah.

332
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 4: So would you have been upset had he not made now?

333
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 4: Mind you?

334
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: Now, he raised money for the Boys and Girls Club,

335
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: I mean estimated he raised two to three million dollars.

336
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: Damn that he was a free agent. He didn't request

337
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 1: the trade. He didn't cost anybody anything. He's not like

338
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: some guys that's like I want to be traded and

339
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 1: you gotta move the guy in the off season, or

340
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: you gotta move in before the trade lined you. Whatever

341
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: you think of Lebron James, he's played his contract out.

342
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: He played it out in Cleveland, he played it out

343
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 1: in Miami, he played it out in Cleveland. He's playing

344
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: it out in my in Lakers and Lebron as far

345
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: as I know, and you and I both everybody knows here.

346
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: Had Lebron ever requested the trade.

347
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 4: He got out, Yeah, he didn't. He would have got out.

348
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 2: He didn't have to request the trade, though, he let

349
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: he that was home, that's home for him. And I

350
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: think you know, the people in acting, the people in

351
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 2: Ohio they understood that, and that's probably what hurt the most.

352
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 2: I think with Lebron being twenty five years old, you know,

353
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: not knowing how to basically leave pretty much, you know,

354
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 2: and doing that decision, I just felt, you know, the

355
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 2: people of Ohio, they kind of felt like it was

356
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 2: probably kind of thrown in their face to some degree,

357
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like you put us on

358
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 2: this big platform like this to tell us you leaving,

359
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 2: And that's why they were That's why they were so

360
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 2: negative towards.

361
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 4: Him, you know, when he left.

362
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 1: But well, you and I both know he was gonna

363
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: hold that decision to say he coming back.

364
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean what you thought, Joe? Who else who

365
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 4: holding the now?

366
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: But like that, oh I'm staying Nah, No you don't.

367
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: I think we all were thinking that though. I think

368
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 2: we all would thinking like, man, hold on, he doing

369
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: a decision.

370
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 4: Wait, this just don't sit right.

371
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 3: Yes, you already knew. You already knew he was leaving

372
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,479
Speaker 3: at that point, and boy they went.

373
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: And the thing is, but think about it, how many times,

374
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: I guess because people how many times you think people

375
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: change jobs in the course of a year.

376
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 4: Joe, Uh not not not too many?

377
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 1: You don't think people change. I'm talking about regular job.

378
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 1: Go from Amazon to ups, ups, fed Ex or do.

379
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: I'm just talking about change jobs. How many people in

380
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: the US you think change jobs every year?

381
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 4: Every year? Yes?

382
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 2: I mean that's I thought you were saying, like, no,

383
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 2: not players, no, no, yeah, yeah.

384
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 4: See.

385
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: The problem is is that fans want players to be

386
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: treated to act normal, act like you human, just like

387
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: the rest of us.

388
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 4: And when they do things like the rest of us,

389
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 4: do what they do with your they get.

390
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 3: Mad, get mad, very mad.

391
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: You feel, you know, I like the most times if

392
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: you at a job, I want to rise up through

393
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,719
Speaker 1: the race. So no matter where I start, even if

394
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: I start in the mail room, I don't want to

395
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 1: stay in the mail room for twenty years.

396
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 4: I want to move up.

397
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: If I get a desk, and then maybe I do this,

398
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: and then I do that, and I do that. We

399
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: see Eric Spostra, He started breaking down tape and then

400
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: he at the bench and then next thing you know,

401
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: he'd the head coach.

402
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 4: Aspirations dreams.

403
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 1: Most people have a dream like you know what, it's

404
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: a nice little job, little entry level job. But I

405
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 1: have bigger dreams than I want to move up the ladder.

406
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,959
Speaker 1: Lebron dreams was I would have win a championship. If

407
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: I can't do it here, what why would I stay Ojo?

408
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: Why would I stay at a job? They're not gonna

409
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: give me the ability to advance? So basically I'm capped.

410
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: This is where I am. I'm captain this seventy eighty

411
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: five dollars your job, This is where I am. Or

412
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: I could say, you know what, I think I got

413
00:20:55,320 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: a better opportunity to rise up the ranks. Lebron says,

414
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: you know what, I want to win a championship. I

415
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: believe had Lebron at Cleveland could have got like Boston

416
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: got KG, like Boston got Ray Allen. I believe if

417
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: they could have brought talent in, I believe Lebron would

418
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: have stayed. What reason does he have to leave if

419
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: he can win championships in his hometown because the championship

420
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: that he wanted Cleveland is worth more than both of those.

421
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 2: What he wanted Miami, I agree, couldn't get no help,

422
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 2: couldn't get no help in Cleveland.

423
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 4: Anybody want to go to Cleveland.

424
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: Nobody going to damn Cleveland. The same thing Yan is

425
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: finding out about Milwaukee. Joe there you go, walk there

426
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: you go. It's hard to get. It's hard to get.

427
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: It's hard to get talent in Milwaukee for guys who

428
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: even want to go down and play there with Jannis. Yeah,

429
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 1: that's what he's finding out. Unless you like Harley's and

430
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 1: they promise you part of the Harley Davidson plant that's

431
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee. But I don't see a whole lot of

432
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: basketball guys riding motorcycles, So that's out. Look once your car,

433
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem. I've never had a problem

434
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: with a guy leaving because guess what. They trade players

435
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: all the time.

436
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 4: Yep, once they once, they once, you're no longer any youth.

437
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 4: But it's amazing how fans don't understand that.

438
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: Joe, You notice that, Joe guys that fans. Fans don't

439
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: understand they trade somebody. Oh, well, it's part of the business.

440
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 1: A player leave, be a free agent, or ask to

441
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: be traded. Oh you self, you don't care about the fans.

442
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: Well on the traded you traded you gout last time.

443
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: He didn't care about the fans. But you understood that.

444
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 4: I just never I.

445
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 1: Never understood how fans feel more connection to a billionaire

446
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: than the millionaires, and maybe there's a there's not a

447
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: connection either way, or maybe there's loyalty to the team. Okay,

448
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: that's your that's your team Lebron or or Yiannis or

449
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: KD or this guy. They don't own the team, So

450
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,679
Speaker 1: why should they have a lordy to a team that

451
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: doesn't have.
