Like it was 168 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 2: a battle between them too. It wasn't just one move. 169 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: It was a battle. But I liked that he was 170 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: patient enough to set. 171 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 3: It up two more. 172 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: When a guy has raw traits like that and you 173 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: see what he's done already in like a few days, 174 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: is it difficult to translate that into games? When they 175 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: start for rookies, or when a guy has this kind 176 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: of power and speeding expulsive, this you expected to translate immediately. 177 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 3: I don't understand that question. 178 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 1: If he has this kind of talent, is it just 179 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: a matter of time for him to pronounce the games? 180 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I think so. 181 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 2: I mean he's going to be put in positions to 182 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 2: six seed, you understand. And and that's just due to 183 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 2: the guys we have on the line, me decks KT. 184 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: He's going to have one on ones, He's going to 185 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: have opportunities to show what he can do, and he 186 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: doesn't show y'all. So, like I said, I don't really 187 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 2: want to do too much talk about a dude because 188 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 2: he'll show you. 189 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 3: I ain't gotta talk talk about him. What did you 190 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 3: say this year? K T? 191 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 2: KT flipped the switch last year. I don't know if 192 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: y'all peeped it, but he flipped the switch last year. 193 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: Playing a lot harder, playing a lot, a lot more physical. Uh, 194 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 2: he's getting his edge, you know, he has. He had 195 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 2: his age today. KT has impressed me about how he 196 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: handles himself in the in the building. He gets it early, 197 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: he does his thing, but all in all, he flipped 198 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: that switch last year, so I expect big things from 199 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: KT this year. I could just follow up, when do 200 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: you think he When did that switch COLMN? 201 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: Was it mid season or. 202 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 2: Is it I can't really put a finger on when 203 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 2: it happened. I know he made a decision to make 204 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: that switch. I know coach Bullen had a I know 205 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 2: coach Bullen had a I called him Charlie. I mean 206 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 2: I called him that. Charlie had a big, a big 207 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: influence on that on on that switch with KT, and uh, 208 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, I'm proud of what he's 209 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 2: been doing so far.
