It was not 149 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:24,119 Speaker 4: an area. 150 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 5: It was a real everything was real fundamental basketball by it. 151 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 5: But you made it so cold and so so just 152 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 5: destructive though it was like blood like he every kid. 153 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 5: It wasn't no kid that didn't know how to do 154 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 5: the Tim Holloway, even if they was terrible at it. 155 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 4: You knew how to do it. 156 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 5: And it sounded like you started the beginnings of it 157 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 5: walking them blocks like that, and that what make it 158 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 5: just effortless for you? 159 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 4: Walking that ball like that. Then you just started doing 160 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 4: moves like off of that. 161 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, I'm gonna tell you it. Another thing a 162 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: guy taught me I was in high school. He said, 163 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 3: you could eat the ball up really fast, up and 164 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 3: down the court really quick, but you got to have 165 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 3: control once you get from that half court line to 166 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 3: that three point line. You got to get yourself in 167 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 3: control to make a move. So if you want to 168 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 3: control and and still running fast and speeding up, you're 169 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 3: not gonna be able to control the basketball and you're 170 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 3: not gonna be under control with your body. 171 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 2: Face. 172 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 3: Ye, you fall on your face exactly. I tell these 173 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 3: kids today when I teach them, I say, Yo, when 174 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 3: you running down the court, you're driven the ball fast, 175 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 3: you're trying to run a fast break. You got to 176 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 3: start chopping your feet right around after that that three 177 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 3: quarter court on the other end, on your half of 178 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: the court, right at the hash mark, you got to 179 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 3: start chopping your feet up and getting yourself under control. 180 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 3: So if you want to do the crossover, you can 181 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 3: do the crossover. If you want to do an in 182 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 3: and out move, you're doing in and out move. If 183 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 3: you just strictly just want to do a crossover between 184 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 3: legs or behind the back, you gotta be under control 185 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 3: and don't fall on your face. And your body has 186 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: to be under control. So that's why I teach the 187 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 3: kids now, you know, And that's what I had to learn. 188 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 3: I fell on my face many a time. It's coming 189 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 3: up like, oh, you know, and I just go back 190 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: and I redo it again. I you know, just redo it. 191 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 3: That's what practice. Practice, practice, take perfect, make you perfect. 192 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 3: So that's what I used to do. I used to 193 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 3: practice all the time. So and you're teaching your kids, 194 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 3: right man, it's a rhythm the basketball. It's a rhythm 195 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 3: that dribbling, that basket, that basketball bounce, and it's a 196 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 3: rhythm to and you got to hear make music. That's 197 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 3: what I used to do. I used to music, you know, 198 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: And that's the way I learned how to, you know, 199 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: dribble the basketball and get really really good with it. 200 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: When I start dribbling good and so forth from every 201 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: time I touch the basketball.
