  little

  bit.

  Yeah,
• 1:22
  you
• 1:22
  know,
• 1:22
  just
• 1:22
  an
• 1:22
  amazing
• 1:23
  series.
• 1:24
  It
• 1:24
  brought
• 1:25
  New
• 1:25
  York
• 1:25
  together
• 1:25
  unlike
• 1:26
  anything.
• 1:26
  Ken.
• 1:26
  You
• 1:27
  know,
• 1:27
  sports
• 1:27
  has
• 1:28
  a
• 1:28
  way
• 1:28
  of
• 1:28
  doing
• 1:28
  that
• 1:29
  no
• 1:29
  matter
• 1:29
  where
• 1:29
  you
• 1:29
  are
• 1:30
  and
• 1:31
  especially
• 1:31
  in
• 1:31
  New
• 1:32
  York
• 1:32
  City.
• 1:33
  I
• 1:33
  know,
• 1:33
  you
• 1:33
  know,
• 1:34
  we
• 1:34
  were
• 1:34
  kind
• 1:35
  of
• 1:35
  concerned
• 1:36
  as
• 1:36
  fans
• 1:37
  that
• 1:38
  based
• 1:39
  on
• 1:39
  the
• 1:39
  reactions
• 1:40
  after
• 1:40
  games
• 1:40
  that,
• 1:41
  you
• 1:41
  know,
• 1:41
  there
• 1:41
  might
• 1:41
  not
• 1:41
  be
• 1:42
  much
• 1:42
  of
• 1:42
  a
• 1:42
  New
• 1:42
  York
• 1:42
  City
• 1:42
  left.
• 1:43
  But
• 1:43
  everybody
• 1:44
  did
• 1:44
  a
• 1:45
  great
• 1:45
  job.
• 1:45
  Although
• 1:45
  the
• 1:46
  parade
• 1:46
  I
• 1:46
  heard
• 1:46
  was
• 1:46
  a
• 1:47
  tough
• 1:47
  go,
• 1:48
  a
• 1:48
  lot
• 1:48
  of
• 1:48
  people
• 1:48
  had
• 1:48
  to
• 1:48
  get
• 1:49
  turned
• 1:49
  around.
• 1:49
  It
• 1:49
  was
• 1:49
  like
• 1:50
  2
• 1:50
  to
• 1:50
  literally
• 1:51
  3
• 1:51
  million
• 1:51
  people.
• 1:52
  Yeah,
• 1:52
  that's
• 1:52
  a
• 1:52
  tough
• 1:52
  spot
• 1:53
  because
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  parade
• 1:54
  route
• 1:54
  only
• 1:54
  went
• 1:55
  a
• 1:55
  certain
• 1:55
  amount
• 1:55
  of
• 1:56
  blocks
• 1:56
  and
• 1:56
  therefore
• 1:56
  people
• 1:57
  are
• 1:57
  trying
• 1:57
  to
• 1:57
  get
• 1:57
  through.
• 1:58
  But
• 1:59
  one
• 2:00
  thing
• 2:00
  I
• 2:00
  will
• 2:00
  say
• 2:00
  is
• 2:00
  I
• 2:00
  think
• 2:00
  it
• 2:01
  was
• 2:01
  good
• 2:01
  that
• 2:01
  the
• 2:01
  Knicks
• 2:01
  won
• 2:02
  on
• 2:02
  the
• 2:02
  road.
• 2:02
  Yes.
• 2:03
  Because
• 2:04
  that
• 2:05
  night
• 2:05
  there
• 2:05
  was
• 2:05
  a
• 2:07
  five
• 2:07
  seconds
• 2:07
  of
• 2:07
  summer
• 2:08
  concert
• 2:09
  going
• 2:09
  on
• 2:09
  at
• 2:10
  Madison
• 2:10
  Square
• 2:10
  Garden.
• 2:11
  So
• 2:11
  people
• 2:11
  were
• 2:11
  there
• 2:11
  for
• 2:11
  a
• 2:11
  reason
• 2:12
  not
• 2:13
  to
• 2:13
  be
• 2:13
  there
• 2:13
  for
• 2:13
  the
• 2:14
  Knicks
• 2:14
  game.
• 2:14
  Some
• 2:15
  watch
• 2:15
  parties,
• 2:15
  but
• 2:16
  I
• 2:16
  think
• 2:16
  it
• 2:16
  would
• 2:16
  have
• 2:16
  been
• 2:16
  crazy
• 2:17
  if
• 2:18
  they
• 2:18
  would
• 2:18
  have
• 2:18
  won
• 2:18
  at
• 2:19
  the
• 2:19
  Garden.
• 2:20
  It
• 2:20
  gave
• 2:20
  the
• 2:20
  people
• 2:20
  some
• 2:21
  time
• 2:21
  to
• 2:21
  kind
• 2:21
  of
• 2:22
  settle
• 2:22
  back.
• 2:22
  Yes.
• 2:23
  But
• 2:23
  then
• 2:23
  it
• 2:23
  gave
• 2:24
  people
• 2:24
  the
• 2:24
  time
• 2:24
  to
• 2:24
  be
• 2:24
  like
• 2:24
  where
• 2:25
  am
• 2:25
  I
• 2:25
  going
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  be
• 2:25
  on
• 2:25
  the
• 2:25
  parade
• 2:26
  route?
• 2:26
  And
• 2:27
  you
• 2:27
  know,
• 2:27
  that
• 2:27
  was
• 2:27
  like
• 2:27
  five
• 2:28
  days
• 2:28
  of
• 2:28
  people
• 2:28
  sketching
• 2:29
  it
• 2:29
  out,
• 2:29
  figuring
• 2:30
  out
• 2:30
  where
• 2:30
  they're
• 2:30
  going
• 2:30
  to
• 2:30
  go.
• 2:31
  Mike,
• 2:32
  quick
• 2:32
  question.
• 2:32
  Do
• 2:32
  you
• 2:32
  think
• 2:33
  if
• 2:33
  they
• 2:33
  would
• 2:33
  have
• 2:33
  made
• 2:33
  it
• 2:34
  a
• 2:34
  mile
• 2:34
  and
• 2:34
  a
• 2:35
  half
• 2:35
  long
• 2:36
  that
• 2:36
  it
• 2:37
  would
• 2:37
  have
• 2:37
  been
• 2:37
  a
• 2:37
  little
• 2:37
  bit
• 2:37
  easier
• 2:38
  or
• 2:39
  do
• 2:39
  you
• 2:39
  think
• 2:39
  it
• 2:39
  still
• 2:40
  would
• 2:40
  have
• 2:40
  been
• 2:40
  crazy?
• 2:40
  Well,
• 2:41
  I
• 2:41
  think
• 2:41
  it
• 2:41
  still
• 2:41
  would
• 2:41
  have
• 2:41
  been
• 2:42
  crazy,
• 2:42
  but
• 2:42
  it
• 2:43
  certainly
• 2:43
  couldn't
• 2:43
  have
• 2:44
  hurt.
• 2:45
  You
• 2:45
  know,
• 2:47
  they
• 2:47
  had.
• 2:47
  New
• 2:48
  York
• 2:48
  Knicks
• 2:48
  had
• 2:48
  won
• 2:48
  twice
• 2:49
  before.
• 2:49
  They
• 2:49
  didn't
• 2:50
  have
• 2:50
  a
• 2:50
  ticket
• 2:51
  tape
• 2:51
  parade
• 2:51
  for
• 2:51
  them,
• 2:51
  which
• 2:52
  I
• 2:53
  found
• 2:53
  very
• 2:53
  interesting.
• 2:53
  So
• 2:54
  of
• 2:54
  course
• 2:54
  they
• 2:54
  wanted
• 2:54
  to
• 2:54
  do
• 2:54
  it.
• 2:55
  Budgetary
• 2:55
  reasons.
• 2:56
  Yeah.
• 2:56
  The
• 2:56
  mayor
• 2:57
  didn't
• 2:57
  want
• 2:57
  to
• 2:57
  do
• 2:57
  it.
• 2:57
  Yeah.
• 2:58
  It
• 2:58
  was
• 2:58
  just
• 2:58
  back
• 2:58
  in
• 2:59
  the
• 2:59
  70s
• 2:59
  there
• 2:59
  were
• 3:00
  all
• 3:00
  sorts
• 3:00
  of
• 3:00
  issues.
• 3:01
  Now
• 3:02
  I
• 3:02
  know
• 3:02
  why
• 3:02
  they
• 3:02
  do
• 3:03
  it
• 3:03
  on
• 3:03
  this
• 3:03
  route
• 3:03
  because
• 3:03
  it's
• 3:04
  called
• 3:04
  the
• 3:04
  Canyon
• 3:04
  of
• 3:04
  Heroes.
• 3:05
  It
• 3:05
  goes
• 3:05
  to,
• 3:06
  you
• 3:06
  know,
• 3:06
  downtown
• 3:07
  to
• 3:07
  City
• 3:07
  Hall.
• 3:08
  So
• 3:08
  in
• 3:09
  theory
• 3:09
  it's
• 3:09
  really
• 3:09
  good.
• 3:10
  But
• 3:10
  I
• 3:11
  would
• 3:11
  say
• 3:11
  if
• 3:11
  there's
• 3:11
  another,
• 3:11
  you
• 3:12
  know,
• 3:12
  New
• 3:12
  York
• 3:12
  team
• 3:13
  that
• 3:13
  wins,
• 3:14
  you
• 3:14
  know,
• 3:14
  o',
• 3:14
  Rangers,
• 3:16
  although,
• 3:16
  you
• 3:17
  know,
• 3:17
  Giants,
• 3:17
  Giants,
• 3:18
  we
• 3:19
  don't
• 3:19
  even
• 3:19
  mention
• 3:19
  the
• 3:19
  jets,
• 3:20
  but
• 3:20
  who
• 3:21
  knows?
• 3:21
  Yeah,
• 3:22
  they're
• 3:22
  going
• 3:22
  to
• 3:22
  have
• 3:22
  to
• 3:23
  make
• 3:23
  an
• 3:23
  adjustment
• 3:23
  because
• 3:24
  now
• 3:26
  it
• 3:26
  just,
• 3:26
  it
• 3:26
  got
• 3:26
  ugly.
• 3:27
  But
• 3:27
  do
• 3:27
  you
• 3:27
  think
• 3:28
  that
• 3:28
  making
• 3:28
  it
• 3:28
  longer
• 3:29
  is
• 3:29
  just
• 3:29
  going
• 3:30
  to
• 3:30
  like.
• 3:30
  Because
• 3:30
  now
• 3:31
  these
• 3:31
  guys
• 3:31
  have
• 3:31
  to
• 3:31
  be
• 3:31
  in
• 3:32
  a
• 3:32
  longer
• 3:32
  parade
• 3:33
  and
• 3:33
  it's
• 3:33
  just
• 3:33
  going
• 3:33
  to
• 3:33
  take
• 3:33
  longer
• 3:34
  to
• 3:34
  get
• 3:34
  to
• 3:34
  City
• 3:34
  Hall.
• 3:35
  I
• 3:36
  just
• 3:36
  think
• 3:36
  that
• 3:36
  there's
• 3:37
  going
• 3:37
  to
• 3:37
  be
• 3:37
  however
• 3:37
  many
• 3:38
  people,
• 3:38
  no
• 3:38
  matter
• 3:39
  what.
• 3:39
  Now,
• 3:39
  if
• 3:39
  the
• 3:40
  Knicks
• 3:40
  were
• 3:40
  to
• 3:40
  repeat.
• 3:40
  I
• 3:40
  know
• 3:41
  I'm
• 3:41
  getting
• 3:41
  ahead
• 3:41
  of
• 3:41
  myself.
• 3:42
  Do
• 3:42
  you
• 3:42
  think
• 3:42
  the
• 3:42
  same
• 3:42
  amount
• 3:43
  of
• 3:43
  people
• 3:43
  show
• 3:43
  up
• 3:43
  next
• 3:43
  year?
• 3:44
  I
• 3:44
  don't
• 3:45
  think
• 3:45
  the
• 3:45
  same
• 3:45
  amount.
• 3:46
  Do
• 3:46
  I
• 3:46
  think
• 3:46
  you'll,
• 3:47
  you'll
• 3:47
  get
• 3:47
  an
• 3:47
  amazing
• 3:47
  amount
• 3:48
  still.
• 3:48
  But
• 3:50
  I
• 3:50
  get
• 3:51
  having
• 3:51
  it
• 3:51
  go
• 3:52
  to
• 3:52
  City
• 3:52
  Hall.
• 3:52
  Yeah,
• 3:53
  but
• 3:54
  what
• 3:54
  is
• 3:54
  the,
• 3:54
  you
• 3:55
  know,
• 3:55
  what's
• 3:55
  the
• 3:55
  steadfast
• 3:56
  rule
• 3:56
  that
• 3:56
  it's
• 3:57
  got
• 3:57
  to
• 3:57
  go
• 3:57
  there?
• 3:57
  Why
• 3:57
  not
• 3:58
  just.
• 3:58
  Yeah.
• 3:58
  Make
• 3:59
  it
• 3:59
  through
• 3:59
  midtown
• 3:59
  and
• 4:00
  maybe,
• 4:01
  maybe
• 4:01
  because
• 4:01
  of
• 4:01
  business
• 4:02
  traffic
• 4:02
  or
• 4:02
  whatever
• 4:03
  else.
• 4:03
  I,
• 4:03
  I
• 4:03
  don't
• 4:04
  know.
• 4:04
  It's
• 4:04
  going
• 4:04
  to
• 4:04
  be
• 4:04
  an
• 4:04
  interesting
• 4:05
  question
• 4:05
  if
• 4:05
  the
• 4:06
  question.
• 4:06
  Who
• 4:07
  stays
• 4:07
  away
• 4:07
  because
• 4:08
  of
• 4:08
  the
• 4:08
  amount
• 4:09
  of
• 4:09
  things
• 4:10
  that
• 4:10
  happen
• 4:10
  the
• 4:10
  first
• 4:10
  time
• 4:11
  and
• 4:11
  who's
• 4:11
  just
• 4:11
  not
• 4:11
  coming
• 4:12
  because
• 4:12
  it's
• 4:13
  a
• 4:13
  repeat.
• 4:13
  And
• 4:13
  we've
• 4:13
  done
• 4:14
  this
• 4:14
  before.
• 4:15
  Well,
• 4:15
  apparently.
• 4:16
  And,
• 4:16
  and
• 4:16
  this,
• 4:17
  this
• 4:17
  came
• 4:17
  straight
• 4:17
  from,
• 4:18
  from
• 4:18
  a
• 4:18
  friend
• 4:18
  of
• 4:18
  mine
• 4:19
  who
• 4:19
  went.
• 4:20
  He,
• 4:20
  he
• 4:21
  and
• 4:21
  his
• 4:21
  group
• 4:22
  got
• 4:22
  there
• 4:23
  or
• 4:23
  to
• 4:23
  the
• 4:24
  parade
• 4:24
  route
• 4:24
  at
• 4:24
  6:30
• 4:25
  out
• 4:25
  of
• 4:26
  the
• 4:26
  subway.
• 4:26
  They,
• 4:26
  they
• 4:26
  were
• 4:26
  like
• 4:27
  the
• 4:27
  last
• 4:27
  group.
• 4:27
  Well,
• 4:28
  I
• 4:28
  was
• 4:28
  going
• 4:28
  to
• 4:28
  say
• 4:28
  there
• 4:28
  was
• 4:28
  a
• 4:29
  lot
• 4:29
  of
• 4:29
  people,
• 4:29
  six
• 4:29
  o'
• 4:29
  clock.
• 4:30
  People
• 4:30
  said
• 4:30
  they,
• 4:30
  they
• 4:31
  couldn't
• 4:31
  even
• 4:31
  make
• 4:31
  it.
• 4:31
  Yeah.
• 4:32
  And
• 4:32
  they
• 4:32
  had,
• 4:32
  they
• 4:33
  were
• 4:33
  stuck
• 4:33
  in
• 4:33
  subways,
• 4:34
  they
• 4:34
  had
• 4:34
  kids
• 4:34
  who
• 4:34
  needed
• 4:35
  to
• 4:35
  get
• 4:35
  to
• 4:36
  class
• 4:36
  to
• 4:36
  take
• 4:36
  Regents.
• 4:37
  It
• 4:38
  was,
• 4:38
  you
• 4:38
  know,
• 4:38
  they
• 4:38
  just
• 4:38
  couldn't
• 4:39
  win.
• 4:39
  But
• 4:39
  I
• 4:39
  knew
• 4:39
  people
• 4:39
  were
• 4:40
  going
• 4:40
  to
• 4:40
  skip
• 4:40
  regions
• 4:41
  to
• 4:41
  go
• 4:41
  to
• 4:41
  this
• 4:41
  town.
• 4:41
  Sure,
• 4:42
  why
• 4:42
  not?
• 4:42
  I
• 4:42
  mean,
• 4:42
  it's
• 4:43
  just,
• 4:43
  it's
• 4:43
  a
• 4:43
  really
• 4:43
  tough
• 4:44
  situation.
• 4:44
  But,
• 4:45
  but,
• 4:45
  but
• 4:45
  you
• 4:45
  know
• 4:45
  that
• 4:46
  people
• 4:46
  are
• 4:46
  upset
• 4:47
  that
• 4:47
  certain
• 4:47
  people,
• 4:47
  VIPs
• 4:48
  and
• 4:48
  cops
• 4:48
  friends
• 4:49
  are
• 4:49
  getting
• 4:49
  through
• 4:49
  when
• 4:49
  other
• 4:50
  people
• 4:50
  are
• 4:50
  not.
• 4:50
  But
• 4:51
  I
• 4:51
  think
• 4:51
  if
• 4:51
  you,
• 4:52
  you
• 4:52
  would
• 4:52
  take
• 4:52
  in
• 4:53
  the
• 4:53
  day
• 4:53
  and
• 4:53
  getting
• 4:54
  there
• 4:54
  at
• 4:54
  three
• 4:54
  o'
• 4:54
  clock
• 4:54
  in
• 4:54
  the
• 4:55
  morning,
• 4:55
  it
• 4:55
  probably
• 4:55
  was
• 4:55
  a
• 4:56
  memorable
• 4:56
  experience.
• 4:57
  I
• 4:57
  don't
• 4:57
  know
• 4:57
  if
• 4:57
  I
• 4:58
  would
• 4:58
  do
• 4:58
  it
• 4:58
  for
• 4:59
  the
• 4:59
  Knicks,
• 4:59
  but
• 5:00
  I
• 5:00
  may
• 5:00
  do
• 5:00
  it
• 5:00
  in
• 5:00
  other
• 5:01
  situations.
• 5:01
  Sure.
• 5:02
  You
• 5:02
  know,
• 5:02
  I
• 5:02
  was
• 5:02
  thinking
• 5:03
  back
• 5:04
  to
• 5:04
  when,
• 5:05
  when
• 5:05
  this
• 5:05
  journey
• 5:05
  first
• 5:06
  started
• 5:06
  for
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  Knicks
• 5:07
  and
• 5:08
  we
• 5:08
  had
• 5:09
  the
• 5:09
  Long
• 5:09
  Island
• 5:09
  Railroad
• 5:10
  strike.
• 5:11
  Oh,
• 5:11
  yeah.
• 5:11
  We
• 5:11
  were
• 5:11
  on
• 5:11
  the
• 5:12
  air,
• 5:12
  you
• 5:12
  know,
• 5:12
  talking
• 5:13
  about
• 5:13
  that.
• 5:13
  And
• 5:14
  that
• 5:14
  seems
• 5:14
  like
• 5:14
  going
• 5:15
  to
• 5:15
  the
• 5:15
  Knicks
• 5:15
  game,
• 5:16
  right?
• 5:16
  Yeah.
• 5:17
  And
• 5:17
  against
• 5:18
  the
• 5:18
  Hawks,
• 5:18
  that
• 5:19
  seems
• 5:19
  like,
• 5:19
  you
• 5:19
  know,
• 5:20
  a
• 5:20
  million
• 5:20
  years
• 5:20
  ago.
• 5:21
  Yeah.
• 5:21
  And
• 5:22
  it's
• 5:22
  just,
• 5:22
  is,
• 5:23
  it's
• 5:24
  amazing
• 5:24
  to
• 5:24
  think
• 5:25
  of
• 5:26
  where
• 5:27
  the
• 5:27
  team
• 5:27
  went,
• 5:28
  where
• 5:28
  they
• 5:28
  came
• 5:28
  from.
• 5:29
  The
• 5:30
  amazing
• 5:30
  run
• 5:31
  of
• 5:32
  rattling
• 5:32
  off
• 5:32
  all
• 5:32
  those
• 5:33
  wins
• 5:33
  in
• 5:33
  a
• 5:33
  row
• 5:33
  and
• 5:34
  being
• 5:34
  so
• 5:34
  dominant
• 5:35
  and
• 5:36
  then
• 5:37
  getting
• 5:37
  the
• 5:37
  first
• 5:37
  two
• 5:37
  games
• 5:38
  on
• 5:38
  the
• 5:38
  road,
• 5:39
  coming
• 5:39
  home
• 5:40
  and
• 5:40
  kind
• 5:40
  of
• 5:41
  laying
• 5:41
  flat.
• 5:41
  Unfortunately.
• 5:42
  I
• 5:42
  think
• 5:43
  the
• 5:43
  moment,
• 5:44
  maybe
• 5:46
  it's
• 5:46
  just
• 5:46
  not
• 5:46
  that
• 5:47
  it
• 5:47
  was
• 5:47
  too
• 5:47
  big
• 5:47
  for
• 5:47
  them,
• 5:48
  but
• 5:48
  it
• 5:48
  was
• 5:48
  definitely
• 5:49
  a
• 5:49
  different
• 5:49
  kind
• 5:49
  of
• 5:49
  atmosphere
• 5:51
  at
• 5:51
  the
• 5:51
  Garden.
• 5:52
  And
• 5:52
  then,
• 5:53
  you
• 5:53
  know,
• 5:53
  of
• 5:53
  course,
• 5:54
  the
• 5:55
  world
• 5:56
  famous
• 5:57
  tip
• 5:57
  in
• 5:58
  Game
• 5:59
  four,
• 5:59
  that's
• 6:00
  going
• 6:00
  to
• 6:00
  go
• 6:00
  down,
• 6:01
  people
• 6:01
  tell
• 6:01
  me
• 6:01
  the
• 6:02
  greatest
• 6:02
  moment
• 6:02
  in
• 6:03
  New
• 6:03
  York
• 6:04
  sports
• 6:04
  history
• 6:04
  since
• 6:04
  Game
• 6:05
  6
• 6:05
  of
• 6:05
  the
• 6:05
  86
• 6:06
  World
• 6:06
  Series.
• 6:07
  Who
• 6:07
  knows?
• 6:08
  You
• 6:08
  know,
• 6:08
  it's,
• 6:08
  it's,
• 6:08
  it's
• 6:09
  all,
• 6:09
  it's
• 6:10
  all
• 6:10
  lore,
• 6:10
  but
• 6:10
  what
• 6:10
  a,
• 6:11
  what
• 6:11
  a,
• 6:11
  what
• 6:11
  a
• 6:12
  play.
• 6:12
  And
• 6:12
  that's
• 6:12
  why
• 6:12
  I'm
• 6:12
  very
• 6:12
  excited
• 6:13
  we're
• 6:13
  going
• 6:13
  to
• 6:14
  have
• 6:14
  Tom
• 6:14
  Crean
• 6:14
  on
• 6:14
  who
• 6:15
  coached
• 6:15
  OG
• 6:15
  Anunoby,
• 6:17
  that,
• 6:17
  that
• 6:17
  whole
• 6:18
  thing.
• 6:18
  Was
• 6:18
  just
• 6:18
  absolutely
• 6:19
  crazy.
• 6:19
  The
• 6:19
  amount
• 6:19
  of
• 6:20
  people
• 6:20
  who
• 6:20
  probably
• 6:20
  were
• 6:20
  writing
• 6:21
  the
• 6:21
  Knicks
• 6:21
  off
• 6:21
  in
• 6:21
  so
• 6:22
  many
• 6:22
  different
• 6:22
  ways
• 6:23
  so
• 6:23
  they
• 6:23
  had
• 6:23
  gotten
• 6:24
  a
• 6:24
  20
• 6:24
  lead.
• 6:24
  If
• 6:25
  they
• 6:25
  lose
• 6:25
  that,
• 6:25
  now
• 6:25
  it's
• 6:26
  down
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  2
• 6:26
  1.
• 6:26
  And
• 6:26
  people
• 6:27
  are
• 6:27
  talking
• 6:27
  about
• 6:28
  what's
• 6:28
  going
• 6:28
  to
• 6:28
  happen
• 6:29
  when
• 6:29
  it
• 6:30
  goes
• 6:30
  back
• 6:30
  to,
• 6:30
  to
• 6:31
  San
• 6:31
  Antonio
• 6:32
  and
• 6:32
  could
• 6:32
  it
• 6:32
  be
• 6:32
  tied
• 6:32
  up
• 6:33
  at
• 6:33
  that
• 6:33
  point.
• 6:34
  So
• 6:35
  the
• 6:36
  strange
• 6:36
  part
• 6:36
  was
• 6:36
  if
• 6:37
  you
• 6:37
  kind
• 6:37
  of
• 6:37
  listen
• 6:37
  to,
• 6:38
  you
• 6:38
  know,
• 6:38
  Josh
• 6:39
  Hart
• 6:39
  and
• 6:40
  Brunson,
• 6:41
  they
• 6:41
  did
• 6:42
  a
• 6:42
  little
• 6:42
  show
• 6:42
  where
• 6:43
  basically
• 6:43
  they
• 6:43
  were
• 6:44
  saying,
• 6:44
  well,
• 6:44
  how
• 6:44
  loud
• 6:45
  was
• 6:45
  it
• 6:45
  in
• 6:45
  there?
• 6:45
  Like,
• 6:45
  oh,
• 6:46
  you
• 6:46
  know,
• 6:46
  really
• 6:46
  loud.
• 6:46
  But
• 6:48
  they
• 6:49
  were
• 6:49
  talking
• 6:49
  about
• 6:49
  how
• 6:50
  Josh
• 6:50
  Hart
• 6:50
  missed
• 6:50
  that
• 6:51
  wide
• 6:51
  open
• 6:51
  layup.
• 6:51
  Yes.
• 6:52
  And
• 6:52
  he
• 6:53
  was
• 6:53
  like,
• 6:53
  well,
• 6:53
  you
• 6:53
  know,
• 6:53
  I
• 6:53
  missed
• 6:54
  that
• 6:54
  wide
• 6:54
  open
• 6:54
  layup
• 6:54
  just
• 6:54
  so
• 6:55
  OG
• 6:55
  can
• 6:55
  have
• 6:55
  that,
• 6:55
  that
• 6:56
  tipping.
• 6:56
  Because
• 6:56
  if
• 6:56
  I
• 6:57
  didn't,
• 6:57
  it
• 6:57
  would
• 6:58
  have
• 6:58
  been
• 6:58
  a
• 6:58
  tougher
• 6:59
  situation.
• 6:59
  But
• 7:00
  man,
• 7:00
  to
• 7:00
  come
• 7:01
  back
• 7:01
  from
• 7:01
  29
• 7:01
  points
• 7:02
  down
• 7:02
  and
• 7:02
  then
• 7:03
  there's
• 7:03
  still
• 7:03
  1.2
• 7:04
  seconds
• 7:04
  to
• 7:04
  go,
• 7:04
  that
• 7:05
  was
• 7:05
  an
• 7:05
  absolutely
• 7:06
  electric
• 7:06
  situation.
• 7:07
  You
• 7:07
  know,
• 7:07
  you
• 7:07
  as
• 7:08
  the
• 7:08
  math
• 7:08
  teacher
• 7:08
  and
• 7:09
  statistically,
• 7:09
  I
• 7:10
  mean,
• 7:10
  what
• 7:10
  they
• 7:11
  were.
• 7:11
  At
• 7:11
  one
• 7:11
  point
• 7:12
  with
• 7:12
  nine
• 7:12
  minutes
• 7:12
  to
• 7:12
  go
• 7:13
  down,
• 7:13
  29
• 7:13
  and
• 7:14
  a
• 7:14
  half
• 7:14
  minutes
• 7:14
  to
• 7:14
  go
• 7:14
  down
• 7:14
  20.
• 7:15
  I
• 7:15
  was
• 7:15
  sitting
• 7:16
  there
• 7:16
  going,
• 7:16
  they
• 7:16
  have
• 7:16
  less
• 7:17
  than
• 7:17
  2%.
• 7:17
  Yeah,
• 7:18
  it
• 7:18
  was,
• 7:18
  it
• 7:18
  was
• 7:18
  under,
• 7:19
  I
• 7:19
  believe
• 7:19
  under
• 7:20
  2%.
• 7:20
  Which
• 7:20
  is,
• 7:21
  which
• 7:21
  is
• 7:21
  just
• 7:21
  wild.
• 7:22
  Everything
• 7:22
  had
• 7:23
  to
• 7:23
  go
• 7:23
  right.
• 7:23
  And
• 7:25
  you
• 7:25
  know,
• 7:25
  from
• 7:26
  a
• 7:26
  basketball
• 7:26
  standpoint
• 7:28
  and
• 7:29
  from
• 7:29
  coaching
• 7:29
  standpoint,
• 7:31
  San
• 7:31
  Antonio
• 7:32
  did
• 7:32
  everything
• 7:32
  possible
• 7:33
  to
• 7:34
  allow
• 7:34
  the
• 7:34
  Knicks
• 7:35
  to
• 7:35
  win
• 7:35
  that
• 7:35
  game.
• 7:36
  You
• 7:36
  know,
• 7:36
  I
• 7:36
  was
• 7:36
  saying,
• 7:37
  not
• 7:38
  that
• 7:38
  this
• 7:38
  would
• 7:38
  ever
• 7:38
  happen,
• 7:39
  but
• 7:39
  if
• 7:40
  San
• 7:40
  Antonio
• 7:41
  had
• 7:41
  just
• 7:41
  taken
• 7:42
  24
• 7:43
  second
• 7:43
  violation
• 7:43
  after
• 7:44
  24,
• 7:45
  if
• 7:45
  they
• 7:45
  had
• 7:46
  just
• 7:46
  done
• 7:46
  that,
• 7:46
  the
• 7:46
  Knicks
• 7:47
  probably
• 7:47
  wouldn't
• 7:48
  even
• 7:48
  have
• 7:48
  a
• 7:48
  chance
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  score.
• 7:49
  I
• 7:50
  mean,
• 7:50
  it's.
• 7:52
  They
• 7:52
  came
• 7:52
  down,
• 7:53
  took
• 7:53
  quick
• 7:53
  threes,
• 7:54
  turned
• 7:55
  the
• 7:55
  ball
• 7:55
  over.
• 7:55
  I
• 7:55
  mean,
• 7:56
  they
• 7:56
  did
• 7:56
  everything
• 7:56
  possible.
• 7:57
  And
• 7:57
  then,
• 7:57
  you
• 7:58
  know,
• 7:58
  de'
• 7:58
  Aaron
• 7:58
  Fox,
• 7:59
  my
• 7:59
  goodness,
• 8:00
  instead
• 8:00
  of
• 8:00
  dribbling
• 8:01
  it
• 8:01
  out,
• 8:01
  he
• 8:01
  goes
• 8:02
  to
• 8:02
  the
• 8:02
  basket,
• 8:03
  gets
• 8:03
  his
• 8:03
  shot
• 8:04
  blocked.
• 8:04
  I
• 8:04
  mean,
• 8:05
  it
• 8:05
  was
• 8:05
  literally
• 8:06
  for
• 8:06
  anybody
• 8:07
  out
• 8:07
  there
• 8:07
  who
• 8:08
  is
• 8:08
  interested
• 8:09
  in
• 8:09
  coaching
• 8:10
  basketball,
• 8:12
  take
• 8:12
  a
• 8:12
  look
• 8:12
  at
• 8:12
  this
• 8:13
  game
• 8:13
  and
• 8:14
  see
• 8:14
  A,
• 8:15
  how
• 8:15
  to
• 8:15
  come
• 8:15
  back
• 8:15
  and
• 8:16
  believe
• 8:16
  in
• 8:16
  yourself,
• 8:17
  but,
• 8:17
  but
• 8:17
  B,
• 8:17
  also
• 8:18
  how
• 8:18
  to
• 8:19
  not
• 8:19
  play
• 8:20
  with
• 8:20
  a
• 8:20
  lead
• 8:21
  late
• 8:21
  in
• 8:21
  the
• 8:21
  game.
• 8:22
  Because
• 8:22
  you
• 8:22
  cannot
• 8:23
  go
• 8:23
  down
• 8:24
  and
• 8:24
  take
• 8:24
  quick
• 8:24
  threes
• 8:25
  in
• 8:25
  the
• 8:25
  shot
• 8:25
  clock
• 8:26
  and
• 8:26
  turn
• 8:27
  the
• 8:27
  ball
• 8:27
  over.
• 8:27
  You
• 8:28
  gotta
• 8:28
  run
• 8:28
  clock.
• 8:29
  And
• 8:29
  it's
• 8:30
  not
• 8:30
  about
• 8:30
  playing
• 8:31
  not
• 8:31
  to
• 8:31
  win.
• 8:32
  You
• 8:33
  know,
• 8:34
  it's
• 8:34
  about
• 8:34
  playing
• 8:35
  smart.
• 8:35
  And
• 8:36
  I
• 8:36
  just
• 8:36
  don't,
• 8:36
  I
• 8:36
  don't
• 8:37
  get
• 8:38
  how
• 8:38
  a
• 8:38
  professional
• 8:39
  basketball
• 8:40
  team
• 8:40
  in
• 8:41
  any
• 8:41
  way,
• 8:41
  shape
• 8:41
  or
• 8:41
  form
• 8:42
  could
• 8:43
  have,.
• 8:45
  You.
• 8:45
  Know,
• 8:45
  maneuvered
• 8:46
  themselves
• 8:47
  into
• 8:47
  a
• 8:47
  position
• 8:48
  to
• 8:48
  lose
• 8:48
  that
• 8:48
  game.
• 8:49
  The
• 8:49
  Knicks,
• 8:50
  throughout
• 8:50
  the
• 8:50
  playoffs.
• 8:51
  I
• 8:51
  mean,
• 8:51
  think
• 8:51
  about
• 8:51
  this,
• 8:51
  Mike.
• 8:52
  16
• 8:52
  and
• 8:52
  three
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  three
• 8:53
  games
• 8:54
  they
• 8:54
  lost
• 8:54
  were
• 8:54
  by
• 8:55
  one
• 8:55
  one
• 8:55
  and
• 8:56
  four.
• 8:56
  They
• 8:56
  were
• 8:57
  dominant.
• 8:57
  And
• 8:57
  I'm
• 8:57
  going
• 8:57
  to
• 8:58
  put
• 8:58
  them
• 8:58
  down
• 8:58
  as
• 8:58
  one
• 8:58
  of
• 8:58
  the
• 8:59
  most
• 8:59
  dominant
• 8:59
  playoff
• 9:00
  teams
• 9:00
  to
• 9:00
  ever
• 9:00
  be
• 9:00
  out
• 9:01
  there.
• 9:01
  So
• 9:01
  this
• 9:02
  is
• 9:02
  a
• 9:02
  great
• 9:02
  situation.
• 9:03
  And
• 9:04
  we're
• 9:04
  going
• 9:04
  to
• 9:04
  have
• 9:05
  a
• 9:05
  former
• 9:05
  Nick
• 9:06
  from
• 9:06
  1999,
• 9:06
  Charlie
• 9:07
  Ward,
• 9:07
  join
• 9:07
  us
• 9:08

  was

  like

  the

  last

  time

  Knicks
• 9:10
  were
• 9:10
  in
• 9:10
  the
• 9:11
  NBA
• 9:11
  Finals.
• 9:12
  Yeah,
• 9:12
  pretty.
• 9:12
  Pretty

  amazing
• 9:13
  stuff.
• 9:13
  And
• 9:15

  spurs,
• 9:21
  against

  And

  You

  about
• 9:34
  them
• 9:34
  being
• 9:34
  so
• 9:34
  dominant,
• 9:36
  but
• 9:36
  got
• 9:36
  down
• 9:36
  in
• 9:37
  these
• 9:37
  games
• 9:38
  so
• 9:38
  quickly

  fast.

  But,

  that's

  winning,

  amazing

  But

  the

  Knick
• 10:24
  family,
• 10:24
  it
• 10:24
  had
• 10:24
  to
• 10:25
  be
• 10:25
  exciting
• 10:25
  for

  you

  It's

  like,

  when
• 10:30
  you're

  have
• 10:34
  success,

  you're

  always

  going

  excited
• 10:36
  because
• 10:36
  you
• 10:36
  know
• 10:39
  what
• 10:39
  you
• 10:40
  put
• 10:40
  into

  it
• 10:41
  and
• 10:41
  how
• 10:41
  much
• 10:42
  you

  love
• 10:42
  and
• 10:43
  adore
• 10:44
  the

  organization
• 10:45
  or
• 10:46
  the
• 10:46
  school.
• 10:47
  And
• 10:47
  so
• 10:48
  just

  the

  heartache,
• 10:49
  heartbreaks
• 10:50
  that
• 10:50
  we've
• 10:51
  had
• 10:51
  over
• 10:51
  all
• 10:52
  these
• 10:52
  years
• 10:53
  of
• 10:53
  getting
• 10:53
  close
• 10:55
  to
• 10:55
  actually
• 10:56
  seeing
• 10:57
  it
• 10:57
  happen,

  you

  know,
• 10:58
  just
• 10:58
  very
• 10:58
  happy
• 10:59
  for
• 10:59
  those
• 10:59
  guys.
• 11:01
  So,
• 11:01
  Charlie,
• 11:02
  from.
• 11:02
  From
• 11:02
  your
• 11:03
  vantage
• 11:03
  point,
• 11:03
  how
• 11:03
  much
• 11:04
  did
• 11:04
  you
• 11:04
  grasp
• 11:04
  onto
• 11:04
  this
• 11:05
  team
• 11:05
  as
• 11:05
  they
• 11:05
  were
• 11:05
  making
• 11:05
  this
• 11:06
  run,
• 11:06
  knowing
• 11:06
  that
• 11:06
  you
• 11:07
  had
• 11:07
  done
• 11:07
  this
• 11:07
  25
• 11:08
  years
• 11:08
  or
• 11:08
  more
• 11:09
  ago?
• 11:11
  Well,
• 11:12
  one
• 11:12
  of
• 11:12
  the
• 11:12
  things
• 11:12
  that
• 11:13
  was
• 11:13
  very
• 11:13
  evident
• 11:14
  was,
• 11:14
  you
• 11:15
  know,
• 11:15
  they
• 11:15
  were
• 11:15
  well
• 11:16
  connected,
• 11:17
  you
• 11:17
  know,
• 11:17
  guys
• 11:18
  willing
• 11:18
  to
• 11:18
  play
• 11:18
  their
• 11:19
  roles,
• 11:19
  which
• 11:19
  is
• 11:20
  always
• 11:20
  a
• 11:20
  great
• 11:22
  characteristic
• 11:23
  to
• 11:23
  have
• 11:24
  as
• 11:24
  a
• 11:25
  team.
• 11:26
  And
• 11:26
  they
• 11:27
  had
• 11:27
  superstars,
• 11:29
  guys
• 11:29
  that
• 11:29
  could
• 11:29
  take
• 11:30
  over
• 11:30
  a
• 11:30
  game
• 11:30
  whenever
• 11:31
  they
• 11:31
  needed
• 11:32
  to.
• 11:32
  And
• 11:33
  when
• 11:33
  you
• 11:33
  have
• 11:34
  those
• 11:35
  types
• 11:35
  of
• 11:36
  characteristics
• 11:37
  as
• 11:38
  a
• 11:38
  unit,
• 11:39
  you
• 11:39
  have
• 11:39
  a
• 11:40
  chance
• 11:40
  to
• 11:40
  be
• 11:40
  successful.
• 11:41
  And
• 11:41
  there
• 11:42
  was
• 11:42
  no
• 11:42
  fluke.
• 11:43
  When
• 11:43
  you
• 11:44
  win
• 11:44
  13
• 11:45
  or
• 11:45
  how
• 11:45
  many
• 11:46
  games
• 11:46
  they
• 11:46
  won
• 11:46
  13
• 11:47
  in
• 11:47
  a
• 11:47
  row
• 11:47
  in
• 11:47
  the
• 11:48
  playoffs,
• 11:49
  you
• 11:49
  know,
• 11:49
  that's
• 11:50
  definitely
• 11:50
  a
• 11:50
  team
• 11:50
  that's
• 11:51
  destined
• 11:51
  for
• 11:52
  greatness.
• 11:54
  And,
• 11:55
  you
• 11:55
  know,
• 11:55
  I
• 11:56
  do
• 11:56
  believe
• 11:56
  that
• 11:57
  those.
• 11:57
  That
• 11:57
  momentum
• 11:58
  carried
• 11:59
  them
• 11:59
  throughout
• 11:59
  those
• 12:00
  playoffs
• 12:01
  to
• 12:01
  win
• 12:01
  a
• 12:01
  championship
• 12:02
  as
• 12:02
  well,
• 12:03
  because
• 12:04
  they
• 12:04
  really
• 12:04
  didn't
• 12:05
  play
• 12:05
  their
• 12:05
  best
• 12:05
  basketball
• 12:07
  the
• 12:07
  entire
• 12:08
  series
• 12:08
  and
• 12:09
  ended
• 12:09
  up
• 12:09
  winning
• 12:10
  the
• 12:10
  series,
• 12:10
  you
• 12:11
  know,
• 12:11
  four
• 12:11
  games
• 12:11
  to
• 12:12
  one.
• 12:13
  So
• 12:14
  that's
• 12:15
  normally
• 12:15
  a
• 12:15
  sign
• 12:15
  of
• 12:16
  a
• 12:16
  great
• 12:16
  team.
• 12:18
  You
• 12:18
  talk
• 12:18
  about
• 12:18
  a
• 12:18
  great
• 12:18
  team.
• 12:19
  Again,
• 12:19
  we're
• 12:19
  talking
• 12:19
  With
• 12:19
  Charlie
• 12:20
  Ward,
• 12:20
  former
• 12:20
  New
• 12:20
  York
• 12:21
  Knicks
• 12:22
  point
• 12:22
  guard,
• 12:22
  the
• 12:23
  1999
• 12:23
  team
• 12:24
  that
• 12:24
  you
• 12:24
  were
• 12:24
  on
• 12:24
  became
• 12:24
  the
• 12:25
  first
• 12:25
  eight
• 12:25
  seed
• 12:26
  to
• 12:26
  reach
• 12:26
  the
• 12:26
  NBA
• 12:27
  Finals.
• 12:27
  At
• 12:27
  what
• 12:28
  point
• 12:28
  during
• 12:28
  that
• 12:28
  playoff
• 12:29
  run
• 12:29
  do
• 12:29
  you
• 12:29
  remember
• 12:30
  that
• 12:30
  that
• 12:30
  locker
• 12:30
  room
• 12:31
  truly
• 12:31
  believed,
• 12:32
  you
• 12:32
  know,
• 12:32
  we
• 12:32
  can
• 12:32
  do
• 12:33
  something
• 12:33
  special?
• 12:36
  Well,
• 12:36
  it
• 12:36
  wasn't
• 12:36
  really
• 12:37
  until
• 12:37
  the
• 12:37
  last
• 12:38
  five
• 12:39
  or
• 12:39
  six
• 12:39
  games
• 12:40
  in
• 12:40
  the
• 12:40
  regular
• 12:40
  season
• 12:41
  because
• 12:41
  it
• 12:42
  was
• 12:42
  a
• 12:42
  lockout
• 12:42
  year,
• 12:44
  and
• 12:44
  of
• 12:44
  course,
• 12:45
  it
• 12:45
  was
• 12:45
  shortened.
• 12:45
  And
• 12:46
  we
• 12:46
  had
• 12:46
  some
• 12:47
  new
• 12:47
  additions
• 12:47
  to
• 12:48
  the
• 12:48
  team
• 12:48
  that
• 12:48
  had
• 12:48
  to
• 12:48
  get
• 12:49
  used
• 12:49
  to
• 12:49
  the
• 12:49
  culture,
• 12:50
  the
• 12:50
  coaches,
• 12:51
  and
• 12:52
  that
• 12:52
  took
• 12:52
  us
• 12:53
  some
• 12:53
  time
• 12:53
  to
• 12:53
  jail.
• 12:55
  But
• 12:55
  it
• 12:55
  wasn't
• 12:55
  until
• 12:55
  the
• 12:56
  last
• 12:56
  five
• 12:56
  or
• 12:57
  six
• 12:57
  games
• 12:57
  where
• 12:57
  I
• 12:57
  think
• 12:58
  we
• 12:58
  won
• 12:58
  five
• 12:58
  in
• 12:58
  a
• 12:58
  row
• 12:59
  to
• 13:00
  make
• 13:00
  it
• 13:00
  into
• 13:00
  the
• 13:00
  playoffs
• 13:02
  or
• 13:02
  get
• 13:02
  the
• 13:02
  ac.
• 13:03
  And
• 13:04
  once
• 13:04
  we
• 13:04
  got
• 13:05
  into
• 13:05
  the
• 13:05
  playoffs,
• 13:05
  it
• 13:05
  gave
• 13:06
  us
• 13:06
  renewed
• 13:06
  energy,
• 13:07
  and
• 13:08
  we
• 13:09
  actually,
• 13:09
  you
• 13:10
  know,
• 13:10
  went
• 13:10
  through,
• 13:11
  got
• 13:11
  a
• 13:11
  sweep
• 13:12
  against
• 13:13
  Atlanta
• 13:14
  in
• 13:14
  the
• 13:14
  second
• 13:14
  round,
• 13:15
  beat
• 13:16
  Miami
• 13:17
  at
• 13:17
  the
• 13:17
  buzzer,
• 13:18
  game
• 13:18
  five.
• 13:19
  And
• 13:20
  so
• 13:20
  it
• 13:20
  was
• 13:20
  one
• 13:20
  of
• 13:21
  those
• 13:21
  very
• 13:21
  similar
• 13:21
  situations
• 13:22
  where,
• 13:22
  you
• 13:23
  know,
• 13:23
  it
• 13:23
  was
• 13:23
  just
• 13:23
  things
• 13:24
  were
• 13:24
  happening
• 13:25
  and
• 13:25
  it
• 13:26
  was
• 13:26
  more
• 13:26
  destined
• 13:27
  for
• 13:27
  us
• 13:27
  to
• 13:27
  get
• 13:28
  to
• 13:28
  where
• 13:28
  we
• 13:28
  got
• 13:28
  to.
• 13:30
  But
• 13:30
  of
• 13:30
  course,
• 13:30
  we
• 13:31
  just
• 13:31
  didn't
• 13:31
  have
• 13:31
  enough
• 13:32
  in
• 13:33
  the
• 13:33
  end.
• 13:34
  Charlie,
• 13:35
  we
• 13:35
  wanted
• 13:35
  to
• 13:35
  ask,
• 13:35
  you
• 13:36
  know,
• 13:36
  in
• 13:36
  these
• 13:36
  games
• 13:37
  in
• 13:37
  the
• 13:37
  finals,
• 13:39
  obviously
• 13:40
  teams
• 13:40
  were
• 13:40
  preparing
• 13:41
  so
• 13:41
  much,
• 13:42
  spending,
• 13:43
  you
• 13:43
  know,
• 13:43
  inordinate
• 13:44
  amount
• 13:44
  of
• 13:44
  time,
• 13:44
  filmed
• 13:45
  coaching
• 13:45
  staff,
• 13:45
  all
• 13:45
  sorts
• 13:46
  of
• 13:46
  things,
• 13:46
  but
• 13:47
  it
• 13:47
  just
• 13:47
  seemed
• 13:47
  that
• 13:48
  the
• 13:48
  Knicks
• 13:48
  constantly,
• 13:49
  obviously
• 13:50
  got
• 13:50
  out
• 13:50
  to
• 13:50
  slow
• 13:51
  starts.
• 13:51
  And
• 13:51
  what
• 13:52
  do
• 13:52
  you
• 13:52
  think
• 13:52
  it
• 13:52
  was
• 13:52
  about,
• 13:53
  just
• 13:54
  San
• 13:54
  Antonio
• 13:55
  being
• 13:55
  able
• 13:55
  to
• 13:56
  game
• 13:56
  after
• 13:56
  game,
• 13:57
  get
• 13:57
  out
• 13:57
  to
• 13:57
  such
• 13:57
  quick
• 13:58
  leads
• 13:58
  when
• 13:58
  the
• 13:59
  Knicks
• 13:59
  were
• 13:59
  as
• 13:59
  good
• 13:59
  as
• 13:59
  they
• 14:00
  were?
• 14:02
  I
• 14:02
  mean,
• 14:03
  it's
• 14:04
  kudos
• 14:04
  to
• 14:05
  San
• 14:05
  Antonio
• 14:06
  for,
• 14:07
  you
• 14:08
  know,
• 14:08
  making
• 14:08
  that
• 14:08
  a
• 14:09
  reality.
• 14:09
  I
• 14:09
  mean,
• 14:10
  they
• 14:10
  put
• 14:10
  the
• 14:11
  energy
• 14:11
  in,
• 14:11
  and
• 14:13
  the
• 14:13
  Knicks,
• 14:13
  of
• 14:13
  course,
• 14:14
  you
• 14:15
  know,
• 14:15
  in
• 14:15
  the
• 14:15
  field
• 14:15
  of
• 14:15
  games,
• 14:17
  they
• 14:18
  missed
• 14:19
  makeable
• 14:19
  shots.
• 14:21
  San
• 14:21
  Antonio
• 14:21
  was
• 14:22
  either
• 14:22
  hot
• 14:23
  or
• 14:23
  on
• 14:23
  fire.
• 14:25
  And
• 14:26
  so
• 14:26
  they
• 14:26
  kind
• 14:26
  of
• 14:27
  had
• 14:27
  their
• 14:28
  moments.
• 14:29
  But
• 14:29
  the
• 14:30
  thing
• 14:30
  that
• 14:30
  was
• 14:31
  most
• 14:31
  impressive
• 14:32
  was,
• 14:32
  you
• 14:32
  know,
• 14:34
  the
• 14:34
  leadership
• 14:35
  and
• 14:36
  experience
• 14:36
  of
• 14:37
  the
• 14:37
  Knicks,
• 14:38
  you
• 14:38
  know,
• 14:38
  working
• 14:38
  to
• 14:39
  cut
• 14:39
  the
• 14:40
  lead,
• 14:41
  you
• 14:42
  know,
• 14:42
  throughout
• 14:42
  the
• 14:42
  game.
• 14:44
  But
• 14:44
  you
• 14:45
  see
• 14:45
  a
• 14:45
  lot,
• 14:45
  a
• 14:45
  lot
• 14:45
  in
• 14:46
  the
• 14:46
  NBA
• 14:46
  because
• 14:47
  there's
• 14:47
  a
• 14:47
  lot
• 14:47
  of
• 14:47
  time
• 14:49
  that's
• 14:49
  left
• 14:49
  in
• 14:50
  the
• 14:50
  game.
• 14:50
  And
• 14:51
  so
• 14:51
  the
• 14:51
  starts
• 14:52
  normally
• 14:53
  aren't
• 14:53
  the
• 14:54
  biggest
• 14:54
  thing.
• 14:55
  It's
• 14:56
  how
• 14:56
  you
• 14:56
  continue
• 14:57
  to
• 14:57
  progress
• 14:57
  throughout
• 14:58
  and
• 14:58
  make
• 14:58
  adjustments.
• 14:59
  And
• 14:59
  that's
• 15:00
  what
• 15:00
  you
• 15:00
  saw
• 15:00
  the
• 15:00
  Knicks
• 15:01
  do.
• 15:01
  Is
• 15:02
  it
• 15:02
  too
• 15:02
  simple
• 15:03
  to
• 15:03
  say
• 15:03
  that
• 15:03
  the
• 15:04
  spurs,
• 15:05
  with
• 15:05
  their
• 15:05
  youth,
• 15:06
  you
• 15:06
  know,
• 15:06
  late
• 15:06
  in
• 15:07
  games,
• 15:07
  did
• 15:07
  get
• 15:07
  a
• 15:07
  little
• 15:08
  tight
• 15:08
  and
• 15:09
  had
• 15:09
  trouble
• 15:09
  closing
• 15:10
  it
• 15:10
  out,
• 15:11
  or
• 15:11
  is
• 15:11
  that
• 15:12
  kind
• 15:12
  of
• 15:12
  overstated,
• 15:12
  do
• 15:13
  you
• 15:13
  think?
• 15:14
  Well,
• 15:15
  at
• 15:15
  some
• 15:15
  point,
• 15:16
  you
• 15:16
  know,
• 15:16
  when
• 15:17
  you
• 15:17
  don't
• 15:17
  have
• 15:17
  those
• 15:17
  type
• 15:18
  of
• 15:18
  experiences,
• 15:20
  you
• 15:20
  do
• 15:22
  kind
• 15:22
  of
• 15:23
  make
• 15:23
  some
• 15:23
  mistakes
• 15:24
  here
• 15:24
  and
• 15:24
  there
• 15:25
  and
• 15:26
  maybe
• 15:27
  guys
• 15:27
  either
• 15:28
  not
• 15:28
  making
• 15:28
  shots
• 15:29
  or
• 15:29
  the
• 15:30
  ball
• 15:30
  is
• 15:30
  in
• 15:30
  the
• 15:30
  wrong
• 15:31
  guy's
• 15:31
  hands
• 15:33
  at
• 15:33
  certain,
• 15:34
  certain
• 15:34
  times.
• 15:35
  And
• 15:35
  you
• 15:35
  started
• 15:35
  to
• 15:36
  see
• 15:36
  that
• 15:36
  even
• 15:36
  in
• 15:37
  Game
• 15:37
  5,
• 15:37
  where
• 15:40
  San
• 15:40
  Antonio
• 15:41
  was
• 15:41
  getting
• 15:41
  to
• 15:42
  the
• 15:42
  basket
• 15:42
  or
• 15:43
  getting
• 15:43
  shots,
• 15:43
  and
• 15:43
  they
• 15:44
  just
• 15:44
  weren't
• 15:44
  making
• 15:44
  them.
• 15:46
  And.
• 15:47
  But
• 15:48
  you
• 15:48
  saw
• 15:48
  the
• 15:48
  Knicks
• 15:49
  on
• 15:49
  the
• 15:49
  opposite
• 15:50
  end.
• 15:50
  They
• 15:50
  knew
• 15:51
  who
• 15:51
  to
• 15:51
  get
• 15:51
  the
• 15:51
  ball
• 15:51
  to,
• 15:52
  and
• 15:53
  Jalen,
• 15:53
  you
• 15:54
  know,
• 15:54
  was
• 15:54
  the
• 15:55
  guy
• 15:55
  that
• 15:56
  made
• 15:56
  everything
• 15:57
  run.
• 15:57
  And
• 15:58
  so
• 15:58
  it
• 15:58
  was
• 15:58
  important.
• 15:59
  It's
• 15:59
  always
• 15:59
  important
• 16:00
  to
• 16:00
  have
• 16:00
  a
• 16:00
  guy
• 16:00
  like
• 16:01
  a
• 16:01
  Jalen
• 16:01
  Brunson
• 16:02
  who
• 16:03
  can
• 16:03
  take
• 16:03
  over
• 16:03
  a
• 16:04
  game,
• 16:05
  but
• 16:05
  also
• 16:06
  can
• 16:06
  get
• 16:07
  everyone
• 16:07
  else
• 16:08
  shots
• 16:08
  because
• 16:09
  of
• 16:09
  his
• 16:09
  ability
• 16:10
  to.
• 16:11
  To
• 16:11
  make
• 16:11
  baskets
• 16:12
  and
• 16:12
  take
• 16:12
  over
• 16:12
  games.
• 16:13
  And
• 16:13
  so
• 16:15
  I
• 16:15
  think,
• 16:15
  you
• 16:16
  know,
• 16:16
  that's
• 16:16
  something
• 16:17
  the
• 16:17
  spurs
• 16:18
  will
• 16:19
  continue
• 16:19
  to
• 16:19
  build
• 16:20
  upon,
• 16:21
  and
• 16:21
  they'll
• 16:22
  have
• 16:22
  a
• 16:23
  guy
• 16:23
  like
• 16:23
  Wendy,
• 16:24
  who
• 16:24
  they
• 16:24
  rely
• 16:25
  on
• 16:25
  a
• 16:25
  lot.
• 16:26
  He'll
• 16:26
  understand
• 16:27
  his
• 16:27
  spots,
• 16:28
  and
• 16:28
  he'll
• 16:29
  understand
• 16:29
  how
• 16:29
  to
• 16:30
  command
• 16:30
  double
• 16:31
  teams
• 16:31
  and
• 16:31
  make
• 16:31
  plays
• 16:32
  for
• 16:32
  other
• 16:32
  guys
• 16:33
  while
• 16:34
  making
• 16:34
  those
• 16:34
  shots
• 16:35
  like
• 16:35
  Jalen
• 16:36
  was
• 16:36
  making
• 16:37
  consistently
• 16:38
  to
• 16:38
  keep
• 16:38
  his
• 16:38
  team
• 16:38
  in.
• 16:39
  So
• 16:40
  that's
• 16:40
  what
• 16:40
  experience
• 16:41
  does.
• 16:42
  And
• 16:43
  I
• 16:43
  was
• 16:43
  just
• 16:43
  surprised
• 16:44
  that,
• 16:45
  you
• 16:45
  know,
• 16:45
  the
• 16:46
  experience
• 16:46
  factor
• 16:47
  didn't
• 16:47
  come
• 16:47
  up
• 16:47
  earlier
• 16:48
  against
• 16:49
  the
• 16:49
  spurs,
• 16:50
  but
• 16:52
  they
• 16:52
  did
• 16:52
  what
• 16:52
  they
• 16:53
  need
• 16:53
  to
• 16:53
  do,
• 16:53
  and
• 16:54
  it
• 16:54
  was
• 16:54
  a
• 16:54
  great
• 16:54
  learning
• 16:54
  experience
• 16:55
  for
• 16:55
  them.
• 16:55
  So
• 16:55
  they'll
• 16:55
  be
• 16:56
  tough
• 16:57
  moving
• 16:57
  forward
• 16:58
  because
• 16:58
  of
• 16:58
  the
• 16:58
  experience
• 16:59
  that
• 16:59
  they
• 16:59
  had,
• 16:59
  you
• 17:00
  know,
• 17:00
  in
• 17:00
  the
• 17:00
  finals.
• 17:02
  Charlie,
• 17:03
  first
• 17:03
  off,
• 17:03
  I
• 17:03
  want
• 17:03
  to
• 17:03
  say
• 17:03
  happy
• 17:04
  Father's
• 17:04
  Day
• 17:04
  to
• 17:04
  you.
• 17:04
  We
• 17:05
  follow
• 17:05
  you
• 17:05
  on
• 17:05
  social
• 17:06
  media
• 17:06
  and
• 17:06
  see
• 17:06
  all
• 17:06
  the
• 17:06
  great
• 17:07
  things
• 17:07
  that
• 17:08
  you
• 17:08
  do.
• 17:09
  So
• 17:09
  I
• 17:09
  hope
• 17:09
  you're
• 17:09
  enjoying
• 17:10
  that
• 17:10
  time
• 17:10
  right
• 17:10
  now.
• 17:12
  And
• 17:12
  secondly,
• 17:13
  thank
• 17:14
  you.
• 17:14
  How
• 17:15
  did
• 17:15
  the
• 17:15
  leadership
• 17:16
  of
• 17:16
  Patrick
• 17:17
  Ewing
• 17:17
  come
• 17:17
  about?
• 17:17
  Especially
• 17:18
  he
• 17:18
  had
• 17:18
  an
• 17:19
  injury
• 17:19
  during
• 17:19
  the
• 17:19
  99
• 17:20
  finals.
• 17:21
  And
• 17:21
  the
• 17:21
  second
• 17:21
  part
• 17:21
  of
• 17:22
  that
• 17:22
  question
• 17:22
  is
• 17:23
  kind
• 17:23
  of
• 17:23
  like,
• 17:24
  were
• 17:24
  you
• 17:24
  happy
• 17:24
  to
• 17:24
  see
• 17:25
  him
• 17:25
  as
• 17:25
  an
• 17:25
  ambassador
• 17:26
  with
• 17:26
  this
• 17:26
  team,
• 17:26
  be
• 17:26
  able
• 17:27
  to
• 17:27
  get
• 17:27
  a
• 17:27
  ring
• 17:27
  this
• 17:27
  year?
• 17:30
  Yes.
• 17:30
  I
• 17:30
  mean,
• 17:31
  you
• 17:31
  know,
• 17:31
  Patrick
• 17:31
  was
• 17:32
  first.
• 17:32
  First
• 17:33
  overall
• 17:33
  pick
• 17:34
  for
• 17:34
  the
• 17:34
  Knicks
• 17:35
  back.
• 17:35
  I
• 17:35
  think
• 17:36
  it
• 17:36
  was
• 17:36
  in
• 17:36
  84,
• 17:37
  whenever
• 17:37
  he
• 17:38
  came
• 17:38
  out.
• 17:39
  And,
• 17:40
  you
• 17:40
  know,
• 17:41
  he's
• 17:41
  definitely
• 17:42
  a
• 17:42
  New
• 17:42
  York
• 17:42
  Knick
• 17:43
  through
• 17:43
  and
• 17:43
  through.
• 17:43
  It
• 17:44
  was
• 17:44
  tough
• 17:44
  when
• 17:45
  it
• 17:45
  was
• 17:45
  time
• 17:45
  for
• 17:45
  him
• 17:46
  to
• 17:47
  move
• 17:47
  to
• 17:47
  a
• 17:48
  different
• 17:48
  school,
• 17:49
  I
• 17:49
  mean,
• 17:49
  different
• 17:49
  organization,
• 17:50
  just
• 17:51
  didn't
• 17:51
  seem
• 17:51
  real,
• 17:52
  but
• 17:53
  that's
• 17:53
  the
• 17:54
  business
• 17:54
  of
• 17:54
  it.
• 17:55
  But
• 17:55
  it
• 17:56
  was
• 17:56
  just
• 17:57
  great
• 17:57
  to
• 17:57
  be
• 17:58
  able
• 17:58
  to
• 17:58
  have
• 17:58
  him
• 17:59
  back,
• 17:59
  you
• 18:00
  know,
• 18:00
  in
• 18:00
  his
• 18:00
  rightful
• 18:01
  place
• 18:01
  as
• 18:01
  being
• 18:02
  an
• 18:02
  ambassador.
• 18:03
  All
• 18:03
  the
• 18:04
  years
• 18:04
  he
• 18:04
  was
• 18:04
  at
• 18:04
  the
• 18:05
  Knicks,
• 18:05
  he
• 18:05
  got
• 18:05
  close,
• 18:07
  of
• 18:07
  course,
• 18:07
  in
• 18:08
  9
• 18:08
  and
• 18:08
  9,
• 18:08
  but
• 18:09
  he
• 18:09
  was
• 18:09
  there

  in

  9
• 18:09
  and
• 18:09
  4.
• 18:11
  But
• 18:11
  at
• 18:11
  9
• 18:11
  and
• 18:11
  9,
• 18:12

  chance,
• 18:14
  a
• 18:14
  second
• 18:14
  chance
• 18:15
  at
• 18:15
  it.
• 18:16
  But
• 18:16
  just
• 18:16
  for
• 18:16
  him
• 18:16
  to
• 18:17
  be
• 18:17
  able
• 18:17
  to
• 18:17
  be
• 18:17
  there

  get
• 18:19
  this
• 18:19
  experience
• 18:21
  winning
• 18:21
  the
• 18:21
  championship,
• 18:22
  you
• 18:23
  know,
• 18:23
  he
• 18:23
  was
• 18:23
  just
• 18:24
  as
• 18:24
  proud
• 18:24
  as
• 18:24
  the
• 18:24
  guys.
• 18:25
  He
• 18:25
  was
• 18:25
  like
• 18:25
  one
• 18:25
  of
• 18:26
  the
• 18:26
  coaches,
• 18:28
  like,
• 18:28
  on
• 18:28
  the
• 18:28
  sideline.
• 18:29
  And
• 18:30
  just

  of
• 18:33

• 18:33
  guys
• 18:34
  as
• 18:34
  well.
• 18:35
  So
• 18:36
  I
• 18:37
  was
• 18:37
  happy
• 18:37
  for
• 18:37
  him
• 18:38
  and,
• 18:39
  you
• 18:39
  know,
• 18:39
  happy
• 18:40
  that
• 18:40
  the
• 18:40
  Knicks
• 18:41
  gave
• 18:41
  him
• 18:41
  this
• 18:41
  opportunity
• 18:42
  to
• 18:42
  be
• 18:42
  an
• 18:42
  ambassador
• 18:44
  and
• 18:45
  glad
• 18:45
  that
• 18:46
  he
• 18:46
  was
• 18:46
  able
• 18:46
  to
• 18:47
  see
• 18:47
  it

  So,

  if

  I

  And,

  Tell
• 19:03
  us
• 19:03
  a
• 19:03
  little
• 19:03
  bit

  about
• 19:04
  your
• 19:04
  first
• 19:04
  season,
• 19:05
  you
• 19:06
  know,
• 19:06
  the
• 19:06
  experience
• 19:06
  of
• 19:07
  that
• 19:07
  and
• 19:08
  just
• 19:08
  where
• 19:08
  you
• 19:09
  feel
• 19:09
  your
• 19:09
  program's
• 19:10
  going
• 19:10
  at
• 19:10
  the
• 19:10
  moment.
• 19:13
  Yes,
• 19:13
  we
• 19:13
  had
• 19:13
  a
• 19:14
  really
• 19:15
  good
• 19:15
  first
• 19:15
  year.
• 19:16
  A
• 19:16
  lot
• 19:16
  of
• 19:16
  people
• 19:17
  didn't
• 19:17
  expect
• 19:17
  us
• 19:17
  to
• 19:18
  finish
• 19:18
  second.
• 19:19
  We
• 19:19
  were
• 19:19
  picked
• 19:19
  to
• 19:19
  finish
• 19:20
  eighth
• 19:20
  in
• 19:20
  the
• 19:20
  league
• 19:21
  and
• 19:22
  finished
• 19:22
  second
• 19:23
  overall
• 19:24
  in
• 19:24
  the
• 19:24
  regular
• 19:24
  season,
• 19:25
  and
• 19:26
  then
• 19:26
  lost
• 19:26
  in
• 19:27
  the
• 19:27
  semifinals
• 19:29
  of
• 19:29
  the
• 19:29
  tournament
• 19:30
  at
• 19:30
  the
• 19:31
  buzzer
• 19:32
  to
• 19:33
  a
• 19:33
  team
• 19:33
  that
• 19:33
  we
• 19:34
  beat
• 19:34
  twice
• 19:35
  during
• 19:35
  the
• 19:35
  regular
• 19:36
  season.
• 19:37
  And
• 19:38
  it
• 19:38
  was
• 19:38
  a
• 19:38
  great
• 19:38
  learning
• 19:39
  experience
• 19:39
  for
• 19:39
  us.
• 19:40
  You
• 19:40
  know,
• 19:40
  we
• 19:40
  took
• 19:41
  the
• 19:41
  job
• 19:42
  last
• 19:42
  April
• 19:43
  and
• 19:44
  we
• 19:44
  worked
• 19:44
  to
• 19:45
  put
• 19:45
  together
• 19:45
  the
• 19:45
  best
• 19:45
  roster
• 19:46
  we
• 19:46
  could
• 19:47
  at
• 19:47
  that
• 19:48
  late
• 19:48
  junction.
• 19:49
  Was
• 19:49
  blessed
• 19:50
  to
• 19:50
  be
• 19:50
  able
• 19:50
  to
• 19:50
  put
• 19:51
  a
• 19:51
  good
• 19:51
  group
• 19:51
  together,
• 19:52
  but
• 19:53
  we
• 19:53
  just
• 19:53
  weren't
• 19:53
  able
• 19:53
  to
• 19:53
  overcome
• 19:55
  in
• 19:55
  the
• 19:55
  end.
• 19:56
  This
• 19:57
  year,
• 19:57
  we're
• 19:58
  looking
• 19:58
  forward
• 19:58
  to
• 20:00
  a
• 20:00
  new
• 20:01
  whole,
• 20:01
  pretty
• 20:01
  much
• 20:02
  a
• 20:02
  whole
• 20:02
  new
• 20:02
  roster.
• 20:03
  We
• 20:03
  have
• 20:03
  three
• 20:03
  guys
• 20:04
  potentially
• 20:04
  coming
• 20:05
  back
• 20:06
  from
• 20:06
  last
• 20:06
  year's
• 20:07
  roster
• 20:07
  and
• 20:08
  the
• 20:08
  12
• 20:09
  new
• 20:09
  guys,
• 20:10
  which
• 20:11
  we're
• 20:11
  excited
• 20:11
  about
• 20:13
  because
• 20:13
  we
• 20:13
  were
• 20:13
  able
• 20:14
  to
• 20:14
  do
• 20:15
  a
• 20:15
  little
• 20:15
  bit
• 20:15
  more
• 20:15
  homework
• 20:16
  on
• 20:16
  the
• 20:17
  guys
• 20:17
  and
• 20:18
  bring
• 20:18
  in,
• 20:18
  you
• 20:19
  know,
• 20:19
  guys
• 20:19
  that
• 20:19
  we
• 20:20
  felt
• 20:20
  could
• 20:21
  help
• 20:21
  get
• 20:21
  us
• 20:21
  to
• 20:21
  that
• 20:22
  next
• 20:22
  level,
• 20:22
  especially
• 20:22
  after
• 20:23
  the
• 20:23
  experience
• 20:23
  we
• 20:24
  had
• 20:25
  in
• 20:25
  our
• 20:26
  first
• 20:26
  year
• 20:26
  in
• 20:26
  the
• 20:26
  swac.
• 20:27
  And
• 20:28
  so
• 20:28
  we're
• 20:28
  excited
• 20:29
  to
• 20:29
  see
• 20:30
  this
• 20:30
  team
• 20:31
  gel
• 20:31
  just
• 20:31
  like
• 20:32
  any
• 20:32
  other
• 20:32
  team.
• 20:34
  They
• 20:34
  have
• 20:34
  to
• 20:34
  be
• 20:35
  connected
• 20:35
  and
• 20:35
  find
• 20:36
  ways
• 20:36
  to
• 20:36
  connect.
• 20:37
  But
• 20:37
  it
• 20:37
  all
• 20:37
  starts
• 20:38
  with
• 20:38
  a
• 20:38
  willingness
• 20:39
  to
• 20:39
  be
• 20:40
  a
• 20:40
  part
• 20:40
  of
• 20:40
  a
• 20:40
  group,
• 20:41
  and
• 20:42
  we're
• 20:42
  excited
• 20:42
  about
• 20:43
  the
• 20:43
  attitudes
• 20:43
  that
• 20:44
  the
• 20:44
  guys
• 20:44
  have
• 20:44
  along
• 20:45
  with
• 20:45
  the
• 20:45
  talent.
• 20:50
  So,
• 20:50
  Charlie,
• 20:51
  one
• 20:51
  of
• 20:51
  the
• 20:51
  defining
• 20:51
  moments
• 20:52
  of
• 20:52
  the
• 20:53
  1999
• 20:53
  Knicks
• 20:54
  Heat
• 20:54
  rivalry
• 20:54
  was
• 20:55
  the
• 20:55
  playoff
• 20:55
  incident
• 20:55
  with
• 20:56
  P.J.
• 20:56
  Brown.
• 20:57
  What
• 20:58
  do
• 20:58
  you
• 20:58
  remember
• 20:58
  most
• 20:59
  about
• 20:59
  that
• 20:59
  moment
• 20:59
  of
• 21:00
  him
• 21:00
  in
• 21:00
  the
• 21:00
  know
• 21:00
  tossing
• 21:01
  you?
• 21:01
  And
• 21:01
  did
• 21:01
  you
• 21:01
  think
• 21:02
  it
• 21:02
  was
• 21:02
  going
• 21:02
  to
• 21:02
  affect
• 21:03
  the
• 21:03
  series
• 21:03
  that
• 21:04
  much?
• 21:06
  That
• 21:07
  was
• 21:07
  not
• 21:07
  99.
• 21:10
  It
• 21:10
  was
• 21:11
  1
• 21:11
  of
• 21:12
  the
• 21:12
  other
• 21:12
  series.
• 21:12
  I'm
• 21:13
  not
• 21:13
  sure
• 21:13
  which
• 21:14
  year
• 21:14
  it
• 21:14
  was,
• 21:14
  but
• 21:15
  that
• 21:16
  was
• 21:16
  just
• 21:16
  unfortunate.
• 21:17
  You
• 21:17
  know,
• 21:18
  we.
• 21:18
  We
• 21:18
  actually
• 21:19
  beat
• 21:20
  the
• 21:21
  Heat
• 21:21
  three
• 21:21
  out
• 21:21
  of
• 21:22
  the
• 21:22
  four
• 21:22
  series
• 21:22
  we
• 21:23
  played,
• 21:24
  and
• 21:24
  that's
• 21:25
  the
• 21:25
  reason
• 21:25
  we
• 21:25
  were
• 21:25
  up
• 21:27
  three
• 21:28
  to
• 21:28
  one,
• 21:28
  I
• 21:28
  do
• 21:28
  believe,
• 21:29
  and
• 21:29
  ended
• 21:29
  up
• 21:29
  losing.
• 21:30
  You
• 21:30
  Know,
• 21:31
  in
• 21:31
  seven
• 21:31
  games.
• 21:33
  But,
• 21:33
  yes,
• 21:33
  that
• 21:34
  was
• 21:34
  a
• 21:34
  turn.
• 21:34
  That
• 21:34
  was
• 21:34
  a
• 21:35
  turning
• 21:35
  factor
• 21:36
  of
• 21:36
  the
• 21:36
  series
• 21:37
  because
• 21:37
  we
• 21:37
  had
• 21:38
  guys
• 21:39
  suspended,
• 21:40
  you
• 21:41
  know,
• 21:41
  for
• 21:41
  the
• 21:41
  last
• 21:42
  two
• 21:42
  games.
• 21:42
  And
• 21:43
  it
• 21:43
  was
• 21:43
  a
• 21:43
  challenge
• 21:44
  for
• 21:44
  us,
• 21:44
  but
• 21:46
  we
• 21:46
  all
• 21:46
  live
• 21:47
  and
• 21:47
  learn,
• 21:47
  and
• 21:49
  so
• 21:50
  PJ
• 21:50
  and
• 21:50
  I,
• 21:52
  good
• 21:52
  friends,
• 21:52
  so
• 21:52
  it
• 21:52
  wasn't
• 21:53
  anything
• 21:54
  malicious
• 21:54
  after
• 21:55
  that.
• 21:55
  It
• 21:55
  was
• 21:56
  just
• 21:56
  a
• 21:56
  part
• 21:56
  of
• 21:56
  the
• 21:56
  competition.
• 21:59
  But
• 21:59
  it
• 22:00
  was
• 22:00
  good
• 22:00
  that
• 22:00
  we
• 22:01
  had
• 22:01
  that
• 22:01
  because
• 22:02
  we
• 22:02
  didn't
• 22:02
  have.
• 22:03
  We
• 22:03
  didn't
• 22:03
  have
• 22:03
  to
• 22:03
  experience
• 22:04
  that
• 22:04
  again.
• 22:05
  Can
• 22:05
  you
• 22:05
  talk
• 22:05
  about
• 22:05
  what
• 22:06
  it's
• 22:06
  like
• 22:06
  playing
• 22:06
  at
• 22:06
  Madison
• 22:07
  Square
• 22:07
  Garden?
• 22:07
  Because,
• 22:08

  They're

  and
• 22:49
  very
• 22:49
  passionate.
• 22:50
  And
• 22:50
  so
• 22:50
  it's
• 22:51
  just
• 22:51
  one
• 22:51
  of
• 22:51
  those
• 22:52
  situations
• 22:52
  where
• 22:52
  you
• 22:53
  just
• 22:53
  enjoy
• 22:54
  the
• 22:54
  experience.
• 22:55
  You
• 22:55
  don't
• 22:56
  want
• 22:56
  to
• 22:56
  be
• 22:56
  on
• 22:56
  the
• 22:56
  team
• 22:56
  when
• 22:57
  you're
• 22:57
  not
• 22:57
  playing
• 22:57
  well,
• 22:58
  which
• 22:58
  I've
• 22:59
  been
• 22:59
  on
• 22:59
  that.
• 23:00
  Been
• 23:00
  on
• 23:00
  that
• 23:00
  side
• 23:00
  as
• 23:01
  well.
• 23:03
  But
• 23:03
  it's
• 23:04
  just
• 23:04
  amazing,
• 23:05
  you
• 23:05
  know,
• 23:05
  to
• 23:06
  see,
• 23:07
  because
• 23:07
  even
• 23:07
  today,
• 23:08
  everywhere
• 23:08
  I
• 23:08
  go,
• 23:09
  there's
• 23:09
  always
• 23:09
  going
• 23:10
  to
• 23:10
  be
• 23:10
  a
• 23:10
  New
• 23:10
  York
• 23:10
  Knick
• 23:10
  fan.
• 23:11
  Sure.
• 23:12
  And
• 23:12
  they're
• 23:12
  going
• 23:12
  to
• 23:13
  come
• 23:13
  up
• 23:13
  to
• 23:13
  you
• 23:13
  regardless
• 23:14
  of
• 23:14
  where
• 23:14
  you
• 23:14
  go.
• 23:15
  And
• 23:15
  so
• 23:16
  it's
• 23:16
  just
• 23:17
  a
• 23:17
  great
• 23:18
  blessing.
• 23:18
  I
• 23:18
  was
• 23:18
  grateful
• 23:19
  that
• 23:19
  I
• 23:19
  had
• 23:20
  an
• 23:20
  opportunity
• 23:20
  to
• 23:20
  be
• 23:20
  there
• 23:21
  for
• 23:21
  nine
• 23:21
  and
• 23:21
  a
• 23:21
  half
• 23:21
  seasons.
• 23:22
  So
• 23:23
  those
• 23:23
  things
• 23:23
  are
• 23:24
  going
• 23:24
  to
• 23:24
  always
• 23:24
  be
• 23:24
  valuable,
• 23:25
  but
• 23:26
  anyone
• 23:27
  that
• 23:27
  plays
• 23:27
  there
• 23:27
  and
• 23:28
  on
• 23:28
  a
• 23:28
  good
• 23:28
  team,
• 23:29
  you're
• 23:30
  going
• 23:30
  to
• 23:30
  be
• 23:30
  loved.
• 23:32
  So
• 23:33
  you
• 23:33
  see
• 23:34
  on
• 23:34
  television
• 23:35
  the
• 23:35
  amount
• 23:35
  of
• 23:36
  celebrities
• 23:36
  that
• 23:37
  are
• 23:37
  at
• 23:37
  the
• 23:37
  games,
• 23:37
  and
• 23:38
  I
• 23:38
  mean,
• 23:38
  I
• 23:38
  think
• 23:39
  without
• 23:39
  being
• 23:39
  there,
• 23:39
  Charlie,
• 23:40
  it's
• 23:40
  hard
• 23:40
  to
• 23:40
  really
• 23:41
  kind
• 23:41
  of
• 23:41
  comprehend
• 23:42
  so
• 23:42
  just
• 23:42
  what
• 23:42
  it's
• 23:43
  like.
• 23:43
  But
• 23:45
  early
• 23:46
  in
• 23:46
  this
• 23:46
  final
• 23:47
  series,
• 23:47
  Game
• 23:47
  three,
• 23:48
  Game
• 23:48
  four,
• 23:48
  especially
• 23:48
  Game
• 23:49
  three,
• 23:49
  when
• 23:49
  the
• 23:49
  team
• 23:50
  struggled.
• 23:51
  Can
• 23:52
  it
• 23:52
  be
• 23:52
  a
• 23:52
  distraction
• 23:53
  to
• 23:54
  you
• 23:54
  as
• 23:54
  a
• 23:54
  New
• 23:54
  York
• 23:55
  Knick?
• 23:55
  I
• 23:55
  mean,
• 23:56
  are
• 23:56
  you
• 23:56
  pulled
• 23:56
  in
• 23:56
  a
• 23:57
  thousand
• 23:57
  different
• 23:57
  directions
• 23:58
  before
• 23:58
  the
• 23:58
  game
• 23:58
  to
• 23:59
  talk
• 23:59
  to
• 23:59
  people
• 23:59
  and
• 23:59
  meet
• 24:00
  with
• 24:00
  celebrities
• 24:00
  and
• 24:00
  take
• 24:01
  pictures
• 24:01
  and
• 24:01
  everything?
• 24:02
  Or
• 24:02
  is
• 24:02
  it
• 24:02
  pretty
• 24:02
  much
• 24:03
  kind
• 24:03
  of
• 24:03
  standard
• 24:04
  procedure
• 24:04
  throughout
• 24:05
  the
• 24:05
  season
• 24:05
  and
• 24:05
  once
• 24:06
  you
• 24:06
  get
• 24:06
  into
• 24:06
  the
• 24:06
  playoffs,
• 24:07
  it's
• 24:08
  the
• 24:08
  same
• 24:08
  thing,
• 24:08
  but
• 24:09
  just
• 24:09
  a
• 24:09
  little
• 24:09
  bit
• 24:09
  more
• 24:10
  exaggerated
• 24:11
  just
• 24:11
  because
• 24:11
  of
• 24:11
  the
• 24:12
  amount
• 24:12
  of
• 24:12
  people
• 24:12
  and
• 24:12
  the
• 24:12
  amount
• 24:13
  of
• 24:13
  celebrities
• 24:13
  that
• 24:13
  are
• 24:13
  there.
• 24:14
  Is
• 24:14
  it
• 24:14
  tough
• 24:14
  to
• 24:15
  manage?
• 24:16
  No,
• 24:17
  it's
• 24:17
  not.
• 24:17
  I
• 24:17
  mean,
• 24:17
  it's.
• 24:18
  I'd
• 24:18
  like
• 24:18
  to
• 24:18
  have
• 24:19
  that
• 24:19
  problem.
• 24:20
  It's
• 24:21
  what
• 24:21
  you
• 24:21
  expect.
• 24:22
  You
• 24:23
  do
• 24:23
  see
• 24:23
  people
• 24:24
  that
• 24:24
  you
• 24:24
  normally
• 24:25
  don't
• 24:25
  see.
• 24:25
  But,
• 24:27
  you
• 24:28
  know,
• 24:28
  a
• 24:28
  lot
• 24:28
  of
• 24:28
  times
• 24:29
  that's.
• 24:31
  I
• 24:31
  mean,
• 24:31
  people
• 24:32
  see
• 24:32
  you
• 24:32
  the
• 24:32
  same
• 24:32
  way,
• 24:33
  and
• 24:33
  so
• 24:33
  it's
• 24:34
  just
• 24:34
  a
• 24:34
  matter
• 24:34
  of,
• 24:35
  you
• 24:36
  know,
• 24:36
  just
• 24:38
  taking
• 24:38
  it
• 24:38
  in
• 24:39
  and
• 24:39
  not
• 24:39
  allowing
• 24:40
  it
• 24:40
  to
• 24:40
  distract
• 24:41
  you
• 24:41
  from
• 24:41
  what
• 24:42
  you're
• 24:42
  doing.
• 24:43
  Because
• 24:43
  most
• 24:44
  times
• 24:45
  you
• 24:45
  see
• 24:45
  it.
• 24:46
  See
• 24:46
  them,
• 24:47
  and
• 24:47
  you
• 24:47
  may
• 24:48
  say
• 24:48
  hello,
• 24:50
  but
• 24:51
  also
• 24:52
  it's,
• 24:53
  you
• 24:53
  know,
• 24:53
  it
• 24:54
  is
• 24:54
  what
• 24:54
  it
• 24:54
  is.
• 24:55
  They're
• 24:56
  the
• 24:56
  game,
• 24:56
  and
• 24:56
  they're
• 24:56
  there
• 24:56
  to
• 24:56
  watch
• 24:57
  you
• 24:57
  play.
• 24:57
  Yeah.
• 24:58
  And
• 24:58
  perform.
• 24:58
  And
• 24:59
  so
• 24:59
  that
• 24:59
  shouldn't
• 24:59
  distract
• 25:00
  you.
• 25:00
  It
• 25:00
  normally
• 25:01
  doesn't
• 25:01
  distract
• 25:01
  you
• 25:02
  from
• 25:03
  doing
• 25:03
  what
• 25:03
  you're
• 25:03
  supposed
• 25:04
  to
• 25:04
  do.
• 25:05
  The
• 25:05
  only
• 25:05
  thing
• 25:05
  I
• 25:05
  was
• 25:05

  basically
• 25:08
  like

  For

  you.
• 25:30
  And,
• 25:30
  you

  know,
• 25:30
  that's
• 25:31
  the
• 25:31
  same
• 25:31
  way,

• 25:50
  know,
• 25:50
  just
• 25:50
  say
• 25:51
  hello.
• 25:52
  And
• 25:52
  those
• 25:52
  are
• 25:52
  all,
• 25:53
  you
• 25:53
  know,
• 25:53
  great
• 25:53
  moments
• 25:55
  for
• 25:55
  the
• 25:55
  future.
• 25:56
  But,
• 25:57
  you
• 25:57
  know,
• 25:57
  you're
• 25:58
  excited
• 25:58
  because
• 25:59
  you
• 25:59
  do
• 25:59
  know
• 25:59
  that
• 26:00
  you're
• 26:00
  in
• 26:00
  New
• 26:00
  York
• 26:01
  and
• 26:01
  you're
• 26:01
  going
• 26:01
  to
• 26:01
  get
• 26:03
  random
• 26:04
  celebrities
• 26:05
  coming
• 26:05
  to
• 26:05
  the
• 26:05
  games
• 26:05
  when
• 26:06
  they're
• 26:06
  in
• 26:06
  New
• 26:06
  York,
• 26:07
  no
• 26:07
  matter
• 26:07
  if
• 26:07
  they
• 26:07
  live
• 26:07
  there
• 26:08
  or
• 26:08
  not.
• 26:08
  Right.
• 26:09
  So
• 26:09
  just
• 26:09
  to
• 26:10
  be
• 26:10
  able
• 26:10
  to
• 26:10
  see,
• 26:11
  you
• 26:11
  know,
• 26:11
  those.
• 26:12
  Those
• 26:12
  people
• 26:13
  in
• 26:13
  the
• 26:13
  stands,
• 26:14
  you
• 26:14
  know,
• 26:15
  it
• 26:15
  kind
• 26:15
  of,
• 26:16
  you
• 26:16
  know,
• 26:16
  I'm
• 26:17
  from
• 26:17
  Thomasville,
• 26:17
  Georgia,
• 26:18
  so
• 26:18
  you
• 26:19
  normally
• 26:19
  don't
• 26:19
  get
• 26:19
  a
• 26:20
  chance
• 26:20
  to
• 26:20
  see
• 26:21
  those
• 26:21
  people.
• 26:21
  You
• 26:21
  see
• 26:22
  them
• 26:22
  on
• 26:22
  television,
• 26:22
  but
• 26:23
  you
• 26:23
  don't
• 26:24
  get
• 26:24
  to
• 26:24
  see
• 26:24
  them
• 26:24
  in
• 26:24
  person
• 26:25
  a
• 26:25
  lot.
• 26:25
  So
• 26:25
  it's
• 26:26
  always
• 26:26
  fascinating.
• 26:28
  Charlie,
• 26:28
  did
• 26:28
  this
• 26:29
  run
• 26:29
  surprise
• 26:29
  you
• 26:29
  that
• 26:30
  the
• 26:30
  Knicks
• 26:30
  went
• 26:30
  on
• 26:31
  this
• 26:31
  year
• 26:31
  in
• 26:32
  the
• 26:32
  playoffs?
• 26:35
  Not
• 26:35
  really.
• 26:35
  I
• 26:35
  mean,
• 26:36
  you
• 26:36
  know,
• 26:36
  they
• 26:36
  had
• 26:36
  a
• 26:36
  good
• 26:37
  year,
• 26:38
  you
• 26:38
  know,
• 26:38
  when
• 26:39
  it
• 26:39
  came
• 26:39
  down
• 26:39
  to
• 26:39
  the
• 26:40
  season.
• 26:40
  Right.
• 26:41
  They
• 26:42
  had
• 26:42
  a
• 26:42
  good
• 26:42
  year,
• 26:44
  and
• 26:44
  they
• 26:44
  were
• 26:44
  number
• 26:45
  three
• 26:46
  in
• 26:46
  the
• 26:46
  conference,
• 26:47
  so.
• 26:48
  And,
• 26:48
  you
• 26:48
  know,
• 26:49
  top
• 26:49
  two
• 26:49
  teams
• 26:50
  had
• 26:50
  relatively
• 26:51
  good
• 26:51
  years.
• 26:52
  And
• 26:53
  just
• 26:53
  like
• 26:53
  any
• 26:54
  team
• 26:54
  you
• 26:54
  Want
• 26:54
  to
• 26:54
  build
• 26:55
  towards
• 26:55
  something.
• 26:57
  And
• 26:57
  so
• 26:58
  throughout
• 26:59
  the
• 26:59
  year,
• 26:59
  they
• 27:00
  had,
• 27:00
  you
• 27:00
  know,
• 27:01
  games
• 27:01
  where
• 27:01
  they
• 27:01
  won,
• 27:03
  put
• 27:03
  together
• 27:03
  good
• 27:04
  streaks,
• 27:05
  and
• 27:05
  that's
• 27:06
  kind
• 27:06
  of
• 27:06
  what
• 27:06
  you
• 27:06
  want
• 27:06
  because
• 27:07
  those
• 27:07
  are
• 27:07
  good
• 27:07
  building
• 27:08
  habits
• 27:09
  throughout
• 27:10
  the
• 27:10
  season.
• 27:11
  They
• 27:11
  got
• 27:11
  an
• 27:11
  opportunity
• 27:12
  to
• 27:12
  play
• 27:12
  different
• 27:12
  guys
• 27:13
  throughout
• 27:13
  the
• 27:13
  year
• 27:14
  because
• 27:15
  that's
• 27:15
  part
• 27:15
  of
• 27:15
  evaluation,
• 27:16
  making
• 27:16
  sure
• 27:17
  that
• 27:17
  you
• 27:17
  have
• 27:17
  the
• 27:17
  depth
• 27:18
  that
• 27:18
  you
• 27:18
  need.
• 27:19
  And
• 27:20
  so
• 27:20
  when
• 27:20
  it
• 27:21
  came
• 27:21
  down
• 27:21
  to
• 27:22
  the
• 27:22
  playoffs,
• 27:23
  you
• 27:23
  know,
• 27:23
  it
• 27:23
  was
• 27:23
  just
• 27:23
  a
• 27:24
  matter
• 27:24
  of
• 27:24
  getting
• 27:25
  on
• 27:25
  a
• 27:25
  run.
• 27:25
  And
• 27:26
  you
• 27:26
  saw
• 27:26
  that
• 27:27
  happen
• 27:28
  during
• 27:29
  the
• 27:29
  playoffs.
• 27:29
  After
• 27:29
  they
• 27:30
  lost
• 27:30
  two
• 27:30
  games
• 27:31
  to
• 27:31
  Atlanta,
• 27:32
  they
• 27:33
  found
• 27:33
  a
• 27:33
  way
• 27:33
  to,
• 27:34
  you
• 27:34
  know,
• 27:35
  put
• 27:35
  it
• 27:35
  together
• 27:36
  and
• 27:37
  go
• 27:37
  on
• 27:37
  another
• 27:38
  run.
• 27:38
  They
• 27:38
  won
• 27:38
  like
• 27:39
  13
• 27:39
  or
• 27:39
  so
• 27:39
  in
• 27:40
  a
• 27:40
  row.
• 27:41
  But
• 27:41
  those
• 27:41
  are
• 27:41
  things
• 27:42
  that
• 27:42
  you
• 27:42
  build
• 27:42
  during
• 27:43
  the
• 27:43
  season,
• 27:44
  those
• 27:44
  habits.
• 27:45
  Absolutely.
• 27:46
  So,
• 27:46
  Charlie,
• 27:47
  before
• 27:47
  we
• 27:47
  let
• 27:47

• 27:57
  or
• 27:57
  tournaments
• 27:58
  that
• 27:58
  we
• 27:58
  should
• 27:58
  keep
• 27:58
  an
• 27:59
  eye
• 27:59
  on
• 27:59
  for

  moment.
• 31:06
  We'll

  pull

• 31:08
  But
• 31:08
  Cap,
• 31:09
  we
• 31:09
  had,
• 31:09
  we
• 31:09
  had
• 31:09
  Ken
• 31:10
  on
• 31:10
  when
• 31:10
  a
• 31:10
  couple
• 31:11
  of
• 31:11
  months
• 31:11

• 31:11
  when
• 31:11
  he
• 31:11
  wrote
• 31:12
  the
• 31:12
  book.
• 31:12
  And

• 31:20
  of
• 31:21
  doing
• 31:21
  it
• 31:21
  a
• 31:21
  disservice
• 31:22
  by
• 31:22
  saying
• 31:22
  it's
• 31:22
  a
• 31:22
  quick
• 31:23
  read.
• 31:23
  It's
• 31:23
  a
• 31:23
  really,
• 31:24
  it's
• 31:24
  a
• 31:24
  great
• 31:24
  book
• 31:24
  for
• 31:25
  any
• 31:25
  sport.
• 31:25
  Short
• 31:26
  chapters
• 31:26
  just
• 31:26
  to
• 31:27
  be
• 31:27
  able
• 31:27
  to
• 31:27
  take
• 31:28
  on
• 31:28
  different
• 31:29
  lessons
• 31:29
  from
• 31:30
  each
• 31:30
  one.
• 31:32
  Okay.
• 31:33
  Well,
• 31:33
  we're
• 31:34
  just,
• 31:34
  we're
• 31:34
  trying
• 31:34
  to
• 31:34
  get
• 31:34
  Ken
• 31:35
  back
• 31:35
  on
• 31:35
  and
• 31:37
  not
• 31:37
  to
• 31:37
  ruin
• 31:37
  it,
• 31:38
  but
• 31:39
  I
• 31:40
  was
• 31:40
  actually
• 31:41
  towards
• 31:41
  the
• 31:41
  end
• 31:41
  of
• 31:41
  the
• 31:41
  basketball
• 31:42
  season,
• 31:42
  when
• 31:43
  my
• 31:43
  season
• 31:43
  was
• 31:43
  done,
• 31:44
  I
• 31:45
  gave
• 31:45
  this
• 31:45
  book
• 31:46
  to
• 31:46
  my
• 31:46
  seniors.
• 31:47
  And
• 31:48
  even
• 31:48
  though
• 31:48
  it's,
• 31:49
  you
• 31:49
  know,
• 31:51
  about
• 31:51
  softball,
• 31:51
  actually
• 31:52
  both
• 31:52
  of
• 31:52
  them
• 31:52
  are
• 31:52
  softball
• 31:53
  players.
• 31:54
  And
• 31:54
  I
• 31:54
  thought
• 31:54
  it
• 31:54
  was
• 31:55
  great,
• 31:55
  just
• 31:55
  about,
• 31:56
  you
• 31:57
  know,
• 31:57
  the
• 31:58
  lessons
• 31:58
  of
• 31:58
  life.
• 31:58
  And
• 31:59
  I
• 31:59
  think
• 31:59
  we
• 31:59
  are.
• 31:59
  Ken,
• 32:00
  do
• 32:00
  we
• 32:00
  have
• 32:00
  you
• 32:00
  on?
• 32:01
  Hey,
• 32:01
  guys.
• 32:02
  There
• 32:02
  we
• 32:02
  go.
• 32:06
  Not
• 32:07
  to
• 32:07
  worry
• 32:07
  at
• 32:07
  all.
• 32:08
  First
• 32:08
  of
• 32:08
  all,
• 32:08
  welcome
• 32:09
  back
• 32:09
  to
• 32:09
  the
• 32:09
  program.
• 32:10
  And
• 32:10
  what
• 32:10
  I
• 32:10
  was
• 32:10
  saying
• 32:10
  was
• 32:11
  that
• 32:12
  right
• 32:12
  after
• 32:12
  we
• 32:12
  had
• 32:13
  you
• 32:13
  on,
• 32:14
  I
• 32:15
  ordered
• 32:15
  your
• 32:15
  book,
• 32:15
  two
• 32:16
  copies.
• 32:16
  I
• 32:17
  had
• 32:17
  two
• 32:17
  seniors
• 32:17
  on
• 32:17
  my
• 32:18
  basketball
• 32:18
  team
• 32:18
  this
• 32:19
  year
• 32:19
  who,
• 32:19
  who
• 32:19
  were
• 32:20
  also
• 32:20
  softball
• 32:21
  players.
• 32:21
  And
• 32:21
  my
• 32:22
  going
• 32:22
  away
• 32:22
  gift
• 32:23
  to
• 32:23
  them
• 32:23
  was
• 32:23
  the
• 32:23
  book.
• 32:24
  And
• 32:24
  as
• 32:24
  we
• 32:24
  were
• 32:25
  at
• 32:25
  our
• 32:25
  party,
• 32:25
  they
• 32:25
  were
• 32:26
  thumbing
• 32:26
  through
• 32:26
  it
• 32:26
  and
• 32:26
  reading
• 32:27
  and
• 32:27
  the
• 32:27
  girls
• 32:27
  were
• 32:27
  looking
• 32:27
  at,
• 32:28
  they
• 32:28
  were
• 32:28
  just
• 32:28
  really
• 32:29
  excited.
• 32:29
  So
• 32:29
  great
• 32:30
  success
• 32:30
  on
• 32:31
  your
• 32:31
  book.
• 32:31
  And
• 32:32
  from
• 32:32
  a
• 32:32
  personal
• 32:33
  standpoint,
• 32:33
  I
• 32:34
  really
• 32:34
  enjoyed
• 32:34
  it.
• 32:35
  That's
• 32:36
  very,
• 32:36
  very
• 32:36
  kind
• 32:36
  of

  I
• 32:37
  very
• 32:37
  much
• 32:37
  appreciate
• 32:38
  that.
• 32:38
  And
• 32:38
  yeah,
• 32:39
  I
• 32:39
  mean,
• 32:39
  I've
• 32:39
  been
• 32:39
  at
• 32:39
  it
• 32:39
  now
• 32:40
  for
• 32:40
  nearly
• 32:41
  five
• 32:41
  months.
• 32:41
  February
• 32:42
  5th
• 32:42
  was
• 32:42
  the
• 32:43
  release
• 32:43
  date.
• 32:44
  I'm
• 32:44
  going
• 32:44
  to
• 32:44
  go
• 32:44
  at
• 32:44
  least

• 32:47
  Major
• 32:47
  League
• 32:47
  Baseball
• 32:48
  playoffs.
• 32:49
  And
• 32:49
  it's
• 32:49
  just
• 32:49
  been
• 32:50
  a
• 32:50
  lot
• 32:50
  of
• 32:50
  fun
• 32:50
  hearing
• 32:50
  stories
• 32:51
  like
• 32:51
  that
• 32:51
  and
• 32:52
  connecting
• 32:52
  with
• 32:53
  coaches
• 32:54
  who
• 32:54
  are
• 32:54
  just

  it's
• 33:00
  like
• 33:00
  for
• 33:01

  really
• 33:11
  been
• 33:11
  a
• 33:11
  pleasure

• 33:14
  the

• 33:19
  for
• 33:19
  four
• 33:20
  years
• 33:20
  I've
• 33:20
  been
• 33:20
  laying
• 33:21
  pretty
• 33:21
  low.
• 33:22
  I
• 33:22
  was
• 33:22
  really
• 33:23
  trying
• 33:23
  to
• 33:23
  stay
• 33:23
  off
• 33:24
  social
• 33:24
  media
• 33:24
  and
• 33:25
  I
• 33:25
  was
• 33:25
  teaching
• 33:25
  at
• 33:26
  a
• 33:26
  college.
• 33:27
  And
• 33:28
  this
• 33:28
  book,
• 33:30
  we
• 33:30
  sold
• 33:31
  it
• 33:31
  in
• 33:31
  roughly
• 33:32
  January
• 33:32
  of
• 33:33
  25.
• 33:34
  So
• 33:34
  the
• 33:35
  last
• 33:35
  year
• 33:35
  has
• 33:35
  been
• 33:35
  busy
• 33:36
  ramping
• 33:36
  up,
• 33:36
  but
• 33:37
  still
• 33:37
  pretty
• 33:37
  tame
• 33:38
  compared
• 33:38
  to
• 33:38
  what
• 33:38
  I've
• 33:38
  been
• 33:39
  doing.
• 33:39
  So
• 33:40
  yeah,
• 33:40
  it's
• 33:41
  been
• 33:41
  great
• 33:41
  getting
• 33:42
  back
• 33:42
  in
• 33:42
  the
• 33:43
  grind,
• 33:43
  but
• 33:43
  in
• 33:44
  a
• 33:44
  much
• 33:44
  different
• 33:44
  way.
• 33:46
  Just
• 33:46
  talking
• 33:46
  about
• 33:47
  this
• 33:47
  book
• 33:47
  and
• 33:47
  also
• 33:48
  talking
• 33:48
  about
• 33:48
  my
• 33:48
  career.
• 33:50
  And
• 33:50
  then
• 33:50
  you
• 33:50
  asked
• 33:50
  the
• 33:51
  best
• 33:51
  part,
• 33:51
  the
• 33:51
  best
• 33:51
  part
• 33:52
  is
• 33:52
  just
• 33:52
  the
• 33:52
  connections
• 33:53
  I'm
• 33:53
  making.
• 33:54
  So
• 33:54
  the
• 33:54
  last
• 33:56
  visit
• 33:56
  I
• 33:56
  did
• 33:57
  was
• 33:57
  this
• 33:57
  past
• 33:58
  Friday
• 33:58
  night
• 33:58
  two
• 33:58
  days
• 33:59
  ago
• 33:59
  at
• 33:59
  the
• 34:00
  Long
• 34:00
  Island
• 34:00
  Duck
• 34:00
  Stadium.
• 34:01
  They
• 34:01
  were
• 34:02
  kind
• 34:02
  enough
• 34:02
  to
• 34:02
  allow
• 34:03
  me
• 34:03
  to
• 34:03
  set
• 34:04
  up
• 34:04
  shop
• 34:04
  there
• 34:05
  with
• 34:05
  a
• 34:05
  table.
• 34:06
  And
• 34:06
  so
• 34:06
  I
• 34:07
  met
• 34:07
  a
• 34:07
  gentleman
• 34:07
  who
• 34:08
  works
• 34:08
  for
• 34:09
  Fan
• 34:10
  who
• 34:12
  helps
• 34:12
  produce
• 34:13
  the
• 34:13
  Boomerangio
• 34:14
  show
• 34:15
  and
• 34:15
  was
• 34:15
  familiar
• 34:16
  with
• 34:16
  my
• 34:16
  work.
• 34:17
  And
• 34:17
  I
• 34:17
  got
• 34:17
  to
• 34:17
  meet
• 34:18
  a
• 34:18
  security
• 34:19
  guard
• 34:19
  at
• 34:19
  the
• 34:19
  ball
• 34:19
  park
• 34:20
  who
• 34:20
  used
• 34:20
  to
• 34:20
  read
• 34:20
  me
• 34:21
  when
• 34:21
  I
• 34:21
  wrote
• 34:21
  for
• 34:21
  Newsday.
• 34:22
  And
• 34:23
  then
• 34:23
  another
• 34:23
  young
• 34:23
  man
• 34:24
  came
• 34:24
  over.
• 34:25
  I
• 34:26
  was
• 34:26
  like
• 34:26
  autographed
• 34:26
  Trevor
• 34:27
  Bauer
• 34:27
  photo
• 34:28
  night
• 34:28
  or
• 34:28
  something.
• 34:28
  He
• 34:29
  said,
• 34:29
  well,
• 34:29
  like
• 34:29
  he
• 34:30
  came
• 34:30
  in
• 34:30
  the
• 34:30
  seventh
• 34:30
  innings
• 34:31
  and
• 34:31
  I'm
• 34:31
  so
• 34:31
  glad
• 34:31
  you're
• 34:32
  still
• 34:32
  here.
• 34:32
  You
• 34:32
  know,
• 34:32
  my,
• 34:33
  my
• 34:33
  first
• 34:33
  priority
• 34:33
  was
• 34:34
  the
• 34:34
  autographed
• 34:34
  Trevor
• 34:35
  Bauer
• 34:35
  photo,
• 34:35
  but
• 34:35
  you
• 34:35
  were
• 34:36
  my
• 34:36
  second
• 34:36
  priority
• 34:37
  and
• 34:37
  he
• 34:38
  bought
• 34:38
  a
• 34:38
  book.
• 34:39
  So
• 34:39
  it's
• 34:39
  just
• 34:40
  individual
• 34:40
  stories
• 34:41
  like
• 34:41
  that
• 34:41
  and
• 34:41
  just
• 34:42
  people
• 34:42
  from
• 34:42
  my
• 34:43
  childhood,
• 34:43
  from
• 34:44
  college,
• 34:44
  from
• 34:45
  my
• 34:45
  hometown
• 34:45
  in
• 34:46
  New
• 34:46
  Jersey
• 34:46
  just
• 34:46
  coming
• 34:47
  up
• 34:47
  and
• 34:47
  supporting
• 34:48
  me
• 34:49
  at
• 34:49
  these
• 34:49
  various
• 34:50
  venues
• 34:51
  has
• 34:51
  really
• 34:51
  just
• 34:52
  been
• 34:52
  thrilling.
• 34:53
  That's
• 34:53
  great.
• 34:53
  So
• 34:54
  this
• 34:54
  Thursday,
• 34:55
  I
• 34:55
  believe,
• 34:55
  June
• 34:55
  25th,
• 34:56
  you're
• 34:57
  going
• 34:57

• 34:57
  be

  Theodore's

• 34:58
  Oyster
• 34:59
  Bay,
• 34:59
  is
• 34:59
  that
• 34:59
  correct?
• 35:00
  That
• 35:00
  is
• 35:00
  correct.
• 35:01
  At
• 35:01
  7pm
• 35:02
  and
• 35:02
  I
• 35:02
  will
• 35:02
  be
• 35:03
  joined
• 35:03
  by
• 35:04
  Glen

  Association
• 35:06
  Craig
• 35:06
  Hanson,
• 35:07
  who
• 35:07
  was
• 35:07
  a
• 35:07
  first
• 35:08
  round
• 35:08
  pick
• 35:08

• 35:12
  the
• 35:12
  Red
• 35:13
  Sox
• 35:13
  and
• 35:13
  Pirates.
• 35:14
  And
• 35:14
  then
• 35:14
  Mark
• 35:14
  Roseman,
• 35:15
  if
• 35:15
  you
• 35:15
  know
• 35:16
  him.
• 35:16
  He's
• 35:16
  a,
• 35:16
  he's
• 35:17
  a
• 35:17
  Suffolk
• 35:17
  county
• 35:18
  sports
• 35:18
  journalism
• 35:19
  legend
• 35:19
  of
• 35:19
  sorts.
• 35:21
  He
• 35:21
  has
• 35:21
  the
• 35:21
  website
• 35:22
  kinerscorner.com
• 35:23
  where
• 35:24
  he
• 35:24
  just,
• 35:24
  he
• 35:24
  writes
• 35:25
  about
• 35:25
  all
• 35:25
  sorts
• 35:25
  of
• 35:26
  Mets
• 35:26
  issues.
• 35:27
  Yeah,
• 35:28
  Craig
• 35:28
  Hanson.
• 35:29
  Now,
• 35:29
  he's
• 35:29
  significantly
• 35:30
  younger
• 35:30
  than
• 35:30
  me,
• 35:31
  but
• 35:31
  he
• 35:32
  was,
• 35:32
  as
• 35:32
  you
• 35:33
  mentioned,
• 35:33
  Glen
• 35:33
  Cove.
• 35:33
  I
• 35:34
  grew
• 35:34
  up
• 35:34
  in
• 35:34
  the
• 35:34
  town
• 35:34
  next
• 35:35
  to
• 35:35
  him,
• 35:35
  Locust
• 35:36
  Valley.
• 35:36
  So
• 35:37
  we
• 35:37
  had.
• 35:37
  He
• 35:38
  was
• 35:38
  on
• 35:38
  our
• 35:38
  radar
• 35:39
  from
• 35:39
  when
• 35:39
  he
• 35:39
  was
• 35:39
  a
• 35:39
  young
• 35:39
  kid
• 35:40
  and
• 35:40
  really
• 35:41
  he
• 35:41
  shot
• 35:41
  through
• 35:42
  the
• 35:42
  ranks.
• 35:42
  And
• 35:43
  I
• 35:43
  know
• 35:43
  he
• 35:43
  pitched
• 35:44
  for
• 35:44
  the
• 35:44
  Red
• 35:44
  Sox
• 35:45
  and
• 35:45
  he
• 35:46
  had
• 35:46
  some
• 35:46
  issues,
• 35:47
  but,
• 35:47
  you
• 35:48
  know,
• 35:48
  physically.
• 35:48
  But
• 35:49
  he
• 35:49
  was
• 35:49
  a
• 35:49
  fantastic
• 35:50
  pitcher
• 35:50
  in
• 35:51
  his
• 35:51
  day.
• 35:52
  Oh,
• 35:52
  without
• 35:52
  a
• 35:52
  doubt.
• 35:53
  I
• 35:53
  was
• 35:53
  with
• 35:53
  Newsday
• 35:54
  when
• 35:54
  he
• 35:54
  rose,
• 35:56
  just
• 35:56
  as
• 35:56
  you're
• 35:57
  discussing.
• 35:57
  And
• 35:58
  so
• 35:58
  I
• 35:58
  wasn't
• 35:59
  covering
• 35:59
  high
• 35:59
  schools,
• 35:59
  but
• 36:00
  when
• 36:00
  he
• 36:00
  reached,
• 36:01
  even
• 36:01
  when
• 36:01
  he
• 36:01
  became
• 36:02
  professional,
• 36:03
  he
• 36:03
  was
• 36:03
  a
• 36:03
  big
• 36:03
  deal.
• 36:04
  And
• 36:04
  I
• 36:04
  was,
• 36:05
  I
• 36:06
  got
• 36:06
  to
• 36:06
  tell
• 36:06
  Craig,
• 36:07
  I
• 36:07
  dug
• 36:07
  up
• 36:07
  an
• 36:07
  article
• 36:08
  I
• 36:08
  wrote
• 36:09
  about
• 36:09
  him
• 36:09
  interviewing
• 36:10
  him
• 36:10
  in
• 36:10
  2005,
• 36:11
  the
• 36:11
  same
• 36:11
  year
• 36:11
  he
• 36:12
  was
• 36:12
  drafted
• 36:12
  in
• 36:12
  Portland,
• 36:13
  Maine.
• 36:13
  He
• 36:13
  was
• 36:14
  on
• 36:14
  the
• 36:14
  Double
• 36:14
  A
• 36:15
  team.
• 36:15
  And,
• 36:15
  you
• 36:16
  know,
• 36:16
  he
• 36:16
  was
• 36:16
  such
• 36:16
  a
• 36:16
  big
• 36:16
  deal
• 36:17
  for
• 36:17
  Newsday
• 36:17
  that
• 36:18
  they
• 36:18
  paid
• 36:18
  for
• 36:19
  me
• 36:19
  to
• 36:19
  fly
• 36:19
  up
• 36:19
  to
• 36:19
  Portland
• 36:20
  and
• 36:20
  interview
• 36:21
  him
• 36:21
  while
• 36:21
  he
• 36:21
  was
• 36:22
  injured.
• 36:24
  That's
• 36:24
  what
• 36:24
  a
• 36:24
  big.
• 36:25
  How
• 36:25
  big
• 36:25
  a
• 36:25
  deal
• 36:26
  Craig
• 36:26
  was
• 36:26
  back
• 36:26
  in
• 36:26
  the
• 36:26
  day?
• 36:27
  Can
• 36:28
  you
• 36:28
  talk
• 36:28
  about
• 36:28
  injuries?
• 36:30
  I'm
• 36:30
  sure
• 36:30
  you're
• 36:30
  following
• 36:31
  some
• 36:31
  of
• 36:31
  the
• 36:31
  New
• 36:31
  York
• 36:31
  teams.
• 36:32
  The
• 36:32
  Yankees
• 36:33
  have
• 36:33
  done
• 36:34
  at
• 36:34
  least
• 36:34
  winning
• 36:35
  baseball,
• 36:35
  if
• 36:35
  not
• 36:36
  excelled
• 36:37
  without
• 36:37
  their
• 36:38
  superstar,
• 36:38
  Aaron
• 36:39
  Judge.
• 36:39
  Do
• 36:40
  you
• 36:40
  think
• 36:40
  this
• 36:40
  season
• 36:41
  that's
• 36:41
  probably,
• 36:41
  that's
• 36:42
  one
• 36:42
  of
• 36:42
  the
• 36:42
  biggest
• 36:42
  things
• 36:42
  about
• 36:43
  them
• 36:43
  is
• 36:43
  they're
• 36:43
  able
• 36:43
  to
• 36:43
  fill
• 36:44
  holes
• 36:44
  when
• 36:44
  their
• 36:45
  superstar
• 36:45
  is
• 36:45
  out.
• 36:46
  It's
• 36:47
  huge.
• 36:47
  I
• 36:47
  mean,
• 36:47
  when
• 36:47
  you
• 36:47
  go
• 36:47
  back
• 36:48
  to
• 36:48
  2023,
• 36:49
  which
• 36:49
  is
• 36:49
  the
• 36:49
  last
• 36:49
  time
• 36:50
  Judge
• 36:50
  went
• 36:51
  on
• 36:51
  the
• 36:51
  injured
• 36:51
  list
• 36:51
  when
• 36:52
  he
• 36:52
  crashed
• 36:52
  into
• 36:52
  the
• 36:53
  wall
• 36:53
  at
• 36:53
  Dodger
• 36:53
  Stadium,
• 36:54
  the
• 36:55
  season
• 36:55
  fell
• 36:55
  apart.
• 36:55
  Right.
• 36:56
  I
• 36:56
  was
• 36:56
  the
• 36:56
  only
• 36:57
  year
• 36:57
  of
• 36:57
  Aaron
• 36:58
  Boone's
• 36:58
  nine
• 36:59
  seasons
• 36:59
  where
• 37:00
  they
• 37:00
  missed
• 37:00
  the
• 37:00
  playoffs.
• 37:01
  But
• 37:01
  because
• 37:01
  they
• 37:02
  were,
• 37:02
  they
• 37:02
  were
• 37:02
  a
• 37:02
  train
• 37:02
  wreck,
• 37:03
  right.
• 37:03
  They
• 37:03
  couldn't
• 37:04
  score
• 37:04
  any
• 37:04
  runs
• 37:04
  and,
• 37:05
  and
• 37:05
  they
• 37:05
  really
• 37:05
  just
• 37:06
  fell
• 37:06
  to
• 37:06
  pieces
• 37:06
  when
• 37:07
  once
• 37:07
  Judge
• 37:08
  got
• 37:08
  injured.
• 37:08
  So,
• 37:08
  yeah,
• 37:09
  the
• 37:09
  fact
• 37:09
  that
• 37:09
  they
• 37:09
  were
• 37:10
  able
• 37:10
  to
• 37:10
  win
• 37:10
  two
• 37:10
  of
• 37:11
  three
• 37:11
  in
• 37:11
  Toronto
• 37:12
  and
• 37:12
  beat
• 37:13
  Cleveland
• 37:13
  two
• 37:14
  of
• 37:14
  three
• 37:14
  and
• 37:14
  the
• 37:14
  White
• 37:14
  Sox
• 37:15
  two
• 37:15
  out
• 37:15
  of
• 37:15
  three,
• 37:16
  that's
• 37:17
  a
• 37:17
  big
• 37:17
  deal
• 37:17
  for
• 37:17
  them.
• 37:18
  And
• 37:18
  a
• 37:19
  follow
• 37:19
  up
• 37:19
  to
• 37:19
  that,
• 37:19
  do
• 37:20
  you
• 37:20
  think
• 37:20
  now
• 37:20
  that
• 37:20
  the
• 37:21
  Knicks
• 37:22
  run
• 37:22
  is
• 37:22
  over,
• 37:23
  that
• 37:23
  people
• 37:24
  are
• 37:24
  going
• 37:24
  to
• 37:24
  now
• 37:24
  start
• 37:25
  to
• 37:25
  focus
• 37:25
  on
• 37:25
  the
• 37:26
  fallacies
• 37:27
  of
• 37:27
  the
• 37:27
  New
• 37:27
  York
• 37:27
  Mets?
• 37:30
  That's
• 37:30
  a
• 37:30
  great
• 37:30
  question.
• 37:31
  You
• 37:31
  know,
• 37:31
  I
• 37:31
  was
• 37:32
  so
• 37:33
  back
• 37:33
  in
• 37:33
  99,
• 37:34
  the
• 37:34
  last
• 37:34
  time
• 37:34
  the
• 37:34
  Knicks
• 37:35
  made
• 37:35
  the
• 37:35
  Finals,
• 37:36
  I
• 37:36
  was
• 37:36
  covering
• 37:37
  the
• 37:37
  Yankees.
• 37:38
  And
• 37:38
  I
• 37:38
  remember
• 37:38
  just
• 37:39
  it
• 37:39
  was
• 37:39
  like
• 37:39
  working
• 37:39
  in
• 37:40
  a
• 37:40
  bubble,
• 37:40
  you
• 37:40
  know,
• 37:41
  because
• 37:41
  even
• 37:41
  the
• 37:42
  Yankees
• 37:42
  were
• 37:42
  defending
• 37:43
  champs,
• 37:43
  you
• 37:43
  know,
• 37:43
  coming
• 37:44
  off
• 37:44
  that
• 37:44
  record
• 37:44
  setting
• 37:45
  98
• 37:45
  season
• 37:46
  and
• 37:46
  they
• 37:47
  had
• 37:47
  plenty
• 37:47
  going
• 37:47
  on
• 37:47
  and
• 37:48
  like
• 37:48
  nothing
• 37:49
  would,
• 37:49
  would
• 37:50
  connect
• 37:50
  with
• 37:50
  people.
• 37:51
  Right.
• 37:51
  Because
• 37:51
  people
• 37:51
  were
• 37:52
  so
• 37:52
  fixated
• 37:52
  on
• 37:53
  that,
• 37:53
  that
• 37:53
  Knicks
• 37:54
  run
• 37:55
  and
• 37:55
  now
• 37:55
  the
• 37:56
  fact
• 37:56
  that
• 37:56
  Knicks
• 37:56
  actually
• 37:57
  won
• 37:57
  it
• 37:57
  this
• 37:57
  time
• 37:58
  and
• 37:59
  it's
• 37:59
  another
• 37:59
  20,
• 38:00
  what,
• 38:00
  seven
• 38:01
  years
• 38:01
  since
• 38:01
  then
• 38:01
  and
• 38:02
  obviously
• 38:02
  53
• 38:03
  years
• 38:03
  overall.
• 38:03
  I
• 38:04
  still
• 38:04
  think
• 38:04
  there's
• 38:04
  going
• 38:04
  to
• 38:04
  be
• 38:04
  a
• 38:05
  little
• 38:05
  period
• 38:05
  here
• 38:06
  where
• 38:06
  people
• 38:07
  are
• 38:07
  just
• 38:07
  floating.
• 38:08
  Right.
• 38:08
  I
• 38:08
  mean
• 38:08
  tell
• 38:08
  me
• 38:08
  if
• 38:09
  you
• 38:09
  disagree
• 38:09
  but
• 38:09
  like
• 38:10
  I
• 38:10
  think,
• 38:10
  I
• 38:10
  think
• 38:10
  people
• 38:11
  are
• 38:11
  just
• 38:11
  going
• 38:11
  to
• 38:11
  ride
• 38:11
  this
• 38:12
  Knicks
• 38:12
  high
• 38:12
  for
• 38:12
  a
• 38:12
  little
• 38:13
  longer
• 38:14
  before
• 38:14
  they
• 38:14
  finally
• 38:15
  sit
• 38:15
  down
• 38:15
  and
• 38:16
  say,
• 38:16
  oh
• 38:16
  my
• 38:16
  God,
• 38:16
  the
• 38:16
  Mets
• 38:17
  stink.
• 38:17
  Yeah.
• 38:18
  But
• 38:18
  at
• 38:18
  some
• 38:18
  point
• 38:19
  I
• 38:19
  think
• 38:19
  it's
• 38:19
  going
• 38:19
  to
• 38:19
  turn
• 38:20
  to,
• 38:20
  you
• 38:21
  know,
• 38:21
  are
• 38:21
  the
• 38:21
  Mets
• 38:21
  going
• 38:22
  to
• 38:22
  be
• 38:22
  sellers
• 38:22
  and
• 38:22
  start
• 38:23
  to
• 38:23
  get
• 38:23
  rid
• 38:23
  of
• 38:23
  things
• 38:23
  and
• 38:24
  then
• 38:24
  you
• 38:25
  know,
• 38:25
  how
• 38:25
  far
• 38:25
  do
• 38:25
  they
• 38:26
  go
• 38:26
  in
• 38:26
  making
• 38:26
  changes?
• 38:27
  Because
• 38:27
  Ken,
• 38:28
  it's
• 38:28
  really
• 38:28
  bad.
• 38:29
  It's
• 38:30
  really
• 38:30
  bad
• 38:30
  and
• 38:31
  I'm
• 38:31
  not
• 38:32
  crushed
• 38:32
  that
• 38:32
  I'm
• 38:32
  not
• 38:32
  there
• 38:33
  to
• 38:33
  cover
• 38:33
  it.
• 38:33
  Yeah.
• 38:34
  But
• 38:35
  you
• 38:35
  know,
• 38:35
  it's
• 38:35
  interesting
• 38:35
  you
• 38:35
  mentioned
• 38:36
  the
• 38:36
  Mets
• 38:36
  selling.
• 38:37
  Now
• 38:37
  obviously
• 38:38
  Freddie
• 38:38
  Peralta
• 38:38
  is
• 38:39
  an
• 38:39
  interesting
• 38:39
  piece,
• 38:40
  right.
• 38:40
  I
• 38:40
  think
• 38:41
  also
• 38:41
  obvious
• 38:41
  he's
• 38:42
  number
• 38:42
  two
• 38:42
  at
• 38:42
  best
• 38:43
  behind
• 38:43
  school.
• 38:44
  Right.
• 38:45
  On
• 38:45
  that
• 38:45
  market.
• 38:46
  Right.
• 38:47
  And
• 38:47
  you
• 38:47
  know,
• 38:47
  he's
• 38:47
  doing
• 38:48
  himself
• 38:48
  no
• 38:48
  favors.
• 38:49
  He
• 38:49
  just
• 38:49
  got
• 38:49
  clobbered
• 38:50
  last
• 38:50
  night,
• 38:50
  right.
• 38:51
  At
• 38:51
  10
• 38:51
  runs.
• 38:52
  So
• 38:52
  you
• 38:52
  know,
• 38:52
  he's,
• 38:53
  he's
• 38:53
  not
• 38:54
  horrible.
• 38:54
  But
• 38:55
  it
• 38:55
  hasn't
• 38:56
  been
• 38:56
  a
• 38:56
  great
• 38:57
  walk
• 38:58
  year
• 38:58
  for
• 38:58
  him,
• 38:58
  you
• 38:59
  know,
• 38:59
  great
• 38:59
  platform
• 38:59
  season
• 39:00
  as
• 39:00
  he
• 39:00
  enters
• 39:01
  free
• 39:01
  agency
• 39:02
  and
• 39:02
  beyond
• 39:02
  him,
• 39:03
  who
• 39:03
  are
• 39:03
  we
• 39:04
  really
• 39:04
  talking
• 39:04
  about
• 39:04
  in
• 39:04
  terms
• 39:05
  of
• 39:05
  who
• 39:05
  they
• 39:06
  can
• 39:06
  trade?
• 39:06
  I
• 39:06
  mean
• 39:06
  David
• 39:07
  Peterson
• 39:08
  is
• 39:08
  now
• 39:08
  his
• 39:08
  walk
• 39:08
  year
• 39:09
  which
• 39:09
  when
• 39:09
  I
• 39:09
  saw
• 39:10
  that,
• 39:10
  that
• 39:10
  kind
• 39:10
  of
• 39:10
  blew
• 39:10
  my
• 39:11
  mind
• 39:11
  because
• 39:11
  you
• 39:12
  know
• 39:12
  that
• 39:12
  was
• 39:12
  the
• 39:12
  last
• 39:13
  full
• 39:13
  season
• 39:13
  I
• 39:13
  covered
• 39:14
  was
• 39:14
  21
• 39:14
  when
• 39:15
  he
• 39:15
  was
• 39:15
  a
• 39:15
  rookie.
• 39:16
  Just
• 39:16
  hit
• 39:16
  me
• 39:17
  personal
• 39:17
  like,
• 39:17
  wow,
• 39:17
  I've
• 39:17
  been
• 39:18
  out
• 39:18
  for
• 39:18
  a
• 39:18
  while
• 39:18
  how
• 39:18
  this
• 39:19
  guy's
• 39:19
  about
• 39:19
  to
• 39:19
  be
• 39:19
  a
• 39:19
  free
• 39:19
  agent.
• 39:21
  So.
• 39:22
  But
• 39:22
  you
• 39:22
  know,
• 39:22
  I
• 39:22
  don't,
• 39:22
  I'm
• 39:23
  not
• 39:23
  sure
• 39:23
  David
• 39:23
  Peterson
• 39:24
  is
• 39:24
  going
• 39:24
  to
• 39:24
  bring
• 39:24
  back
• 39:25
  tremendous
• 39:26
  return
• 39:26
  if
• 39:27
  they
• 39:27
  shop
• 39:27
  him.
• 39:28
  So
• 39:28
  you
• 39:28
  know,
• 39:28
  they,
• 39:29
  they
• 39:29
  won't.
• 39:29
  There's
• 39:30
  always
• 39:30
  a
• 39:30
  team
• 39:30
  that
• 39:30
  runs
• 39:31
  the
• 39:31
  deadline,
• 39:31
  right.
• 39:32
  Like
• 39:32
  a
• 39:33
  team.
• 39:35
  One.
• 39:36
  Now
• 39:36
  of
• 39:37
  course
• 39:37
  I'm
• 39:37
  blanking
• 39:37
  on
• 39:37
  who
• 39:38
  it
• 39:38
  was
• 39:38
  last
• 39:39
  year,
• 39:39
  but
• 39:40
  even
• 39:40
  like
• 39:40
  the
• 39:40
  year
• 39:40
  the
• 39:41
  Yankees
• 39:41
  traded
• 39:41
  Andrew
• 39:42
  Miller
• 39:42
  and
• 39:42
  roll
• 39:42
  this
• 39:43
  Chapman
• 39:43
  with
• 39:43
  which
• 39:43
  is
• 39:44
  back
• 39:44
  in
• 39:44
  16.
• 39:46
  But
• 39:46
  like
• 39:46
  the
• 39:46
  Mets
• 39:47
  won't
• 39:47
  be
• 39:47
  that
• 39:47
  team,
• 39:47
  it'll
• 39:48
  be
• 39:48
  the
• 39:48
  Tigers,
• 39:48
  right.
• 39:49
  With
• 39:49
  Scubal
• 39:51
  on
• 39:52
  a
• 39:52
  New
• 39:52
  York
• 39:52
  front.
• 39:53
  This
• 39:53
  run
• 39:54
  that
• 39:54
  the
• 39:54
  Knicks
• 39:55
  made,
• 39:56
  is
• 39:56
  this
• 39:56
  the,
• 39:57
  I
• 39:57
  mean
• 39:57
  what
• 39:58
  is
• 39:58
  it
• 39:58
  like
• 39:58
  if
• 39:59
  you're
• 39:59
  covering
• 39:59
  a
• 39:59
  team
• 40:00
  like
• 40:00
  the
• 40:00
  Knicks
• 40:00
  during
• 40:00
  something
• 40:01
  like
• 40:01
  this.
• 40:01
  I
• 40:01
  mean,
• 40:01
  we
• 40:01
  really
• 40:02
  didn't
• 40:02
  have
• 40:02
  it
• 40:02
  much
• 40:03
  during
• 40:04
  your
• 40:04
  time
• 40:04
  as
• 40:04
  a
• 40:05
  writer.
• 40:05
  So
• 40:06
  what
• 40:06
  is
• 40:07
  this
• 40:07
  situation
• 40:08
  like?
• 40:09
  Yeah,
• 40:09
  that's
• 40:10
  a
• 40:10
  great
• 40:10
  question.
• 40:11
  I'm
• 40:11
  not
• 40:11
  sure
• 40:11
  I
• 40:12
  can
• 40:12
  offer
• 40:12
  a
• 40:12
  comparable
• 40:13
  just
• 40:14
  because
• 40:14
  of
• 40:14
  the
• 40:14
  special
• 40:15
  place
• 40:15
  that
• 40:15
  the
• 40:16
  Knicks
• 40:16
  have
• 40:16
  in
• 40:16
  the
• 40:16
  heart
• 40:17
  of
• 40:17
  New
• 40:18
  York,
• 40:18
  which
• 40:18
  we
• 40:18
  saw
• 40:19
  this
• 40:19
  last
• 40:19
  couple
• 40:20
  months
• 40:20
  and
• 40:20
  with
• 40:20
  the
• 40:21
  parade
• 40:21
  and
• 40:22
  everything
• 40:23
  and
• 40:25
  the
• 40:25
  time
• 40:25
  gap,
• 40:26
  you
• 40:26
  know,
• 40:26
  53
• 40:27
  years,
• 40:27
  my
• 40:27
  God,
• 40:27
  even
• 40:28
  the
• 40:28
  Mets
• 40:28
  are
• 40:28
  only
• 40:28
  at
• 40:29
  40.
• 40:29
  Right.
• 40:30
  So,
• 40:30
  you
• 40:31
  know,
• 40:31
  the
• 40:31
  Knicks
• 40:32
  are
• 40:32
  to
• 40:32
  the
• 40:32
  point
• 40:32
  where
• 40:33
  who
• 40:33
  was
• 40:33
  at
• 40:33
  the
• 40:33
  games?
• 40:34
  Clyde.
• 40:34
  And
• 40:34
  was
• 40:34
  he
• 40:35
  the
• 40:35
  only
• 40:35
  one
• 40:35
  from
• 40:35
  that
• 40:35
  team?
• 40:36
  Because
• 40:37
  everyone
• 40:37
  else
• 40:37
  sadly
• 40:38
  has
• 40:38
  either
• 40:38
  passed
• 40:38
  away
• 40:39
  or
• 40:39
  probably
• 40:39
  isn't
• 40:39
  well
• 40:40
  enough
• 40:40
  to
• 40:40
  attend.
• 40:42
  So.
• 40:43
  Pretty
• 40:43
  remarkable.
• 40:44
  Yeah.
• 40:44
  I
• 40:44
  mean,
• 40:44
  and
• 40:44
  the
• 40:45
  COVID
• 40:45
  that
• 40:46
  had
• 40:46
  to
• 40:46
  be
• 40:46
  quite
• 40:47
  magical.
• 40:47
  I
• 40:47
  mean,
• 40:47
  I
• 40:47
  covered
• 40:48
  the
• 40:48
  two
• 40:49
  2015
• 40:49
  World
• 40:50
  Series
• 40:50
  for
• 40:50
  the
• 40:51
  Mets
• 40:51
  and
• 40:51
  at
• 40:51
  that
• 40:52
  point
• 40:52
  that
• 40:52
  would
• 40:52
  have
• 40:52
  been
• 40:52
  29
• 40:53
  years
• 40:53
  since
• 40:54
  86,
• 40:55
  so
• 40:55
  that
• 40:55
  would
• 40:55
  have
• 40:55
  been
• 40:55
  great.
• 40:56
  But
• 40:57
  53
• 40:57
  years,
• 40:57
  I
• 40:58
  mean,
• 40:58
  that's
• 40:58
  really,
• 40:58
  that's
• 40:59
  beyond
• 41:00
  generational.
• 41:02
  That's
• 41:02
  two
• 41:02
  generations
• 41:03
  or
• 41:03
  maybe
• 41:03
  three.
• 41:04
  So,
• 41:04
  yeah,
• 41:05
  really
• 41:05
  just
• 41:05
  an
• 41:05
  incredible
• 41:06
  story.
• 41:06
  And
• 41:07
  I
• 41:07
  just
• 41:07
  happened
• 41:07
  to
• 41:07
  be
• 41:07
  at
• 41:07
  the
• 41:07
  Yankees
• 41:08
  game
• 41:09
  Wednesday
• 41:09
  night
• 41:09
  when
• 41:10
  Brunson
• 41:10
  and
• 41:10
  Hart
• 41:11
  threw
• 41:11
  out
• 41:11
  the
• 41:11
  first
• 41:11
  pitch
• 41:12
  and
• 41:13
  just
• 41:13
  the
• 41:13
  reaction
• 41:14
  they
• 41:14
  got
• 41:15
  again,
• 41:16
  just
• 41:16
  really
• 41:16
  a
• 41:17
  magical
• 41:18
  run.
• 41:18
  And
• 41:19
  just
• 41:19
  the
• 41:19
  vibe
• 41:20
  in
• 41:20
  the
• 41:20
  entire
• 41:20
  Tri
• 41:21
  State
• 41:21
  area
• 41:21
  has
• 41:22
  really
• 41:22
  been
• 41:22
  incredible.
• 41:23
  So
• 41:24
  once
• 41:24
  again,
• 41:24
  this
• 41:25
  Thursday
• 41:25
  night
• 41:26
  at
• 41:26
  7pm
• 41:28
  you're
• 41:28
  going
• 41:28
  to
• 41:28
  be
• 41:28
  talking
• 41:29
  about
• 41:29
  your
• 41:29
  book
• 41:29
  and
• 41:30
  signing
• 41:30
  101
• 41:31
  lessons
• 41:31
  from
• 41:32
  the
• 41:32
  Dugout
• 41:33
  at
• 41:33
  Theodore's
• 41:34
  Books
• 41:34
  in
• 41:34
  Oyster
• 41:34
  Bay,
• 41:35
  17
• 41:35
  Audrey
• 41:36
  Avenue,
• 41:36
  along
• 41:36
  with
• 41:37
  Craig
• 41:37
  Hanson
• 41:38
  and
• 41:39
  Mark
• 41:39
  Roseman.
• 41:40
  So
• 41:40
  once
• 41:41
  the
• 41:41
  tour
• 41:42
  is
• 41:42
  over
• 41:42
  here,
• 41:42
  and
• 41:43
  I
• 41:43
  know
• 41:43
  you
• 41:43
  got
• 41:43
  a
• 41:44
  ways
• 41:44
  to
• 41:44
  go
• 41:44
  here
• 41:44
  with
• 41:44
  the
• 41:44
  book
• 41:45
  and
• 41:45
  going
• 41:46
  to
• 41:46
  sell
• 41:46
  a
• 41:47
  ton
• 41:47
  more
• 41:47
  what's
• 41:48
  on
• 41:48
  the
• 41:48
  horizon
• 41:48
  for
• 41:49
  you
• 41:49
  for
• 41:49
  your
• 41:49
  next
• 41:50
  project
• 41:50
  or
• 41:50
  what
• 41:51
  you're
• 41:51
  looking
• 41:51
  into?
• 41:52
  I
• 41:52
  know
• 41:52
  I
• 41:53
  don't
• 41:53
  want
• 41:53
  to
• 41:53
  rush.
• 41:53
  You,
• 41:53
  but
• 41:54
  the
• 41:54
  first
• 41:54
  person
• 41:54
  to
• 41:54
  ask
• 41:55
  me,
• 41:55
  I
• 41:55
  honestly
• 41:56
  don't
• 41:56
  know,
• 41:56
  I'm
• 41:57
  just
• 41:57
  sprinting
• 41:58
  through
• 41:58
  the
• 41:58
  tape.
• 41:58
  I
• 41:58
  mean
• 41:59
  this.
• 41:59
  When
• 42:00
  this
• 42:00
  book
• 42:00
  sold
• 42:01
  in
• 42:01
  January
• 42:02
  25,
• 42:02
  I
• 42:03
  had
• 42:03
  other
• 42:03
  books
• 42:05
  in
• 42:05
  process
• 42:06
  also,
• 42:06
  and
• 42:06
  I
• 42:07
  hit
• 42:07
  the
• 42:07
  pause
• 42:07
  button
• 42:08
  on
• 42:08
  all
• 42:08
  those
• 42:08
  once
• 42:09
  this
• 42:09
  one
• 42:10
  sold.
• 42:10
  So
• 42:11
  we'll
• 42:11
  see.
• 42:12
  Hopefully
• 42:13
  this
• 42:13
  book
• 42:14
  will
• 42:14
  have
• 42:14
  sold
• 42:15
  well
• 42:15
  enough
• 42:15
  to
• 42:15
  give
• 42:15
  me
• 42:16
  some
• 42:16
  leverage
• 42:17
  in
• 42:18
  the
• 42:18
  decisions
• 42:18
  I
• 42:18
  make
• 42:18
  moving
• 42:19
  forward.
• 42:19
  But
• 42:20
  honestly,
• 42:21
  I'm
• 42:21
  55
• 42:22
  years
• 42:22
  old
• 42:22
  and
• 42:22
  this
• 42:22
  is
• 42:22
  the
• 42:23
  first
• 42:23
  book
• 42:23
  I've
• 42:23
  sold.
• 42:24
  I
• 42:24
  could
• 42:24
  never
• 42:24
  figure
• 42:24
  out
• 42:24
  how
• 42:25
  to
• 42:25
  write
• 42:25
  a
• 42:25
  book
• 42:25
  when
• 42:25
  I
• 42:25
  was
• 42:26
  working
• 42:26
  full
• 42:26
  time
• 42:26
  and
• 42:27
  still
• 42:27
  see
• 42:28
  my
• 42:28
  family
• 42:28
  at
• 42:28
  all.
• 42:30
  So
• 42:30
  it
• 42:30
  really
• 42:31
  just
• 42:31
  was
• 42:31
  such
• 42:31
  a
• 42:32
  delight
• 42:32
  for
• 42:32
  me,
• 42:33
  a
• 42:33
  victory
• 42:33
  lap,
• 42:34
  if
• 42:34
  you
• 42:34
  will.
• 42:35
  And
• 42:36
  so
• 42:36
  I'm
• 42:36
  just
• 42:36
  focused
• 42:37
  on
• 42:37
  enjoying
• 42:38
  this
• 42:38
  lap
• 42:38
  and
• 42:39
  when
• 42:39
  it's
• 42:39
  over,
• 42:39
  I'll
• 42:40
  sit
• 42:40
  down
• 42:40
  with
• 42:41
  my
• 42:41
  brain
• 42:42
  trust
• 42:42
  and
• 42:42
  figure
• 42:43
  out
• 42:43
  the
• 42:43
  next
• 42:43
  move.
• 42:44
  Well,
• 42:44
  so
• 42:44
  many
• 42:45
  hours
• 42:45
  of
• 42:45
  hard
• 42:46
  work
• 42:46
  and
• 42:48
  lessons
• 42:48
  that
• 42:49
  you're
• 42:49
  telling
• 42:49
  everybody.
• 42:50
  And
• 42:50
  as
• 42:50
  I
• 42:51
  mentioned
• 42:52
  before,
• 42:52
  great
• 42:52
  book
• 42:53
  for
• 42:53
  the
• 42:54
  softball
• 42:54
  or
• 42:54
  baseball
• 42:55
  player
• 42:55
  or
• 42:55
  coach
• 42:55
  or
• 42:56
  parent,
• 42:56
  whatever.
• 42:57
  Just
• 42:57
  so
• 42:57
  many
• 42:58
  great
• 42:58
  things.
• 42:59
  I'll
• 43:00
  be
• 43:00
  down
• 43:00
  there
• 43:00
  Thursday
• 43:00
  night
• 43:01
  because
• 43:01
  I
• 43:01
  live
• 43:02
  close
• 43:02
  and.
• 43:02
  Oh,
• 43:03
  wonderful.
• 43:03
  Yeah,
• 43:03
  Looking
• 43:04
  forward
• 43:04
  to
• 43:04
  meeting
• 43:04
  with
• 43:05
  you.
• 43:05
  And
• 43:05
  I'll
• 43:06
  bring
• 43:06
  as
• 43:07
  many
• 43:07
  friends
• 43:07
  as
• 43:07
  I
• 43:08
  can
• 43:08
  to
• 43:08
  pack
• 43:08
  in
• 43:08
  the
• 43:08
  place
• 43:09
  and,
• 43:10
  you
• 43:10
  know,
• 43:10
  hopefully
• 43:11
  once
• 43:11
  again,
• 43:12
  the
• 43:12
  book
• 43:12
  continues
• 43:13
  to
• 43:13
  be
• 43:13
  a
• 43:14
  huge
• 43:14
  success
• 43:14
  as
• 43:14
  it
• 43:15
  is.
• 43:15
  Thank
• 43:15
  you
• 43:16
  so
• 43:16
  much
• 43:16
  for
• 43:16
  being
• 43:16
  on.
• 43:18
  We'll
• 43:18
  continue
• 43:19
  as
• 43:19
  the
• 43:19
  program
• 43:19
  goes
• 43:20
  on
• 43:20
  tonight
• 43:20
  to
• 43:21
  talk
• 43:21
  about
• 43:21
  your
• 43:21
  appearance.
• 43:22
  But
• 43:22
  all
• 43:23
  the
• 43:23
  best,
• 43:23
  travel
• 43:24
  safe
• 43:24
  and
• 43:25
  hope
• 43:25
  to
• 43:25
  have
• 43:25
  you
• 43:25
  on
• 43:26
  again
• 43:26
  when
• 43:27
  your

• 45:56
  But
• 45:56
  I

  pre
• 45:56
  and

  And

  so
• 46:04
  being

  these
• 46:06
  different

• 46:12
  different
• 46:12
  areas
• 46:13
  that
• 46:13
  it's

  fun
• 46:14
  to
• 46:14
  be

  now
• 46:15
  in
• 46:15
  the
• 46:15
  off
• 46:15
  season
• 46:16
  because
• 46:16
  you
• 46:16
  feel
• 46:16
  very
• 46:17
  connected
• 46:18
  not

  you

  know
• 46:19
  and
• 46:19
  to
• 46:19
  your
• 46:20
  own
• 46:20
  players,
• 46:20
  but

  connected

• 46:21
  diving
• 46:22
  into
• 46:22
  the

  winning
• 46:36
  a
• 46:36
  championship.
• 46:37
  So
• 46:37
  can
• 46:37
  you
• 46:37
  first
• 46:38
  talk
• 46:38
  about
• 46:38
  the
• 46:38
  experience
• 46:39
  of
• 46:39
  coming
• 46:39
  to
• 46:39
  a
• 46:39
  game,
• 46:40
  you
• 46:40
  know,
• 46:40
  watching
• 46:41
  a
• 46:41
  29
• 46:41
  point
• 46:42
  comeback
• 46:42
  and
• 46:43
  having
• 46:43
  one
• 46:43
  of
• 46:43
  your
• 46:43
  players
• 46:44
  be
• 46:44
  the
• 46:44
  man
• 46:45
  on
• 46:45
  the
• 46:45
  court.
• 46:47
  Absolutely.
• 46:47
  Well,
• 46:47
  first
• 46:48
  off,
• 46:48
  I
• 46:48
  wasn't
• 46:48
  at
• 46:48
  that
• 46:49
  game
• 46:49
  actually
• 46:50
  I
• 46:50
  was
• 46:50
  at
• 46:50
  game
• 46:50
  five.
• 46:51
  Correct.
• 46:52
  Because
• 46:52
  I
• 46:52
  was
• 46:52
  a
• 46:52
  part
• 46:52
  of
• 46:52
  the
• 46:52
  MVPA
• 46:54
  players
• 46:55
  top
• 46:55
  100
• 46:55
  camp
• 46:56
  and
• 46:56
  rock
• 46:57
  Hill.
• 46:57
  So
• 46:57
  I,
• 46:57
  the
• 46:58
  only
• 46:58
  game
• 46:58
  I
• 46:58
  could
• 46:58
  really
• 46:59
  get
• 46:59
  to
• 47:00
  was,
• 47:00
  was
• 47:00
  game
• 47:01
  five
• 47:01
  and
• 47:01
  I
• 47:01
  did
• 47:01
  not
• 47:01
  want
• 47:01
  to
• 47:02
  miss
• 47:02
  it
• 47:02
  if
• 47:02
  they
• 47:02
  were
• 47:02
  going
• 47:02
  to
• 47:03
  win
• 47:03
  it.
• 47:03
  But
• 47:03
  watching
• 47:04
  that
• 47:04
  game
• 47:05
  in
• 47:05
  a
• 47:06
  hotel
• 47:06
  room,
• 47:06
  you
• 47:07
  know,
• 47:07
  at
• 47:07
  the
• 47:07
  camp,
• 47:07
  I
• 47:07
  didn't
• 47:08
  go
• 47:08
  into
• 47:08
  the,
• 47:09
  to
• 47:09
  where
• 47:09
  everybody
• 47:10
  was
• 47:10
  watching
• 47:10
  it.
• 47:10
  You
• 47:11
  know,
• 47:11
  when
• 47:11
  you're
• 47:11
  watching
• 47:12
  one
• 47:12
  of
• 47:12
  your
• 47:12
  own
• 47:12
  players
• 47:13
  sometimes
• 47:14
  like
• 47:14
  watching
• 47:14
  your
• 47:14
  own
• 47:15
  sons,
• 47:15
  you're
• 47:15
  locked
• 47:15
  into
• 47:15
  it.
• 47:16
  Right.
• 47:16
  You
• 47:16
  don't
• 47:16
  want
• 47:16
  to
• 47:17
  be
• 47:17
  distracted,
• 47:17
  you
• 47:17
  want
• 47:18
  to
• 47:18
  study
• 47:18
  it.
• 47:19
  It
• 47:19
  never
• 47:19
  looked
• 47:19
  to
• 47:20
  me,
• 47:20
  even
• 47:20
  with
• 47:20
  the
• 47:20
  Way
• 47:21
  Seattle
• 47:21
  was.
• 47:21
  I
• 47:21
  mean,
• 47:22
  Seattle,
• 47:22
  San
• 47:22
  Antonio
• 47:23
  was
• 47:23
  playing.
• 47:24
  It
• 47:24
  never
• 47:24
  looked
• 47:25
  to
• 47:25
  me
• 47:26
  like
• 47:26
  the
• 47:27
  Knicks
• 47:28
  had
• 47:28
  give
• 47:28
  up
• 47:28
  in
• 47:28
  them.
• 47:29
  It
• 47:29
  never
• 47:29
  looked
• 47:29
  to
• 47:29
  me
• 47:29
  like
• 47:30
  they
• 47:30
  weren't.
• 47:31
  That
• 47:31
  they
• 47:31
  didn't
• 47:31
  have
• 47:31
  an
• 47:32
  opportunity
• 47:32
  to
• 47:32
  turn
• 47:32
  things
• 47:33
  around.
• 47:33
  And
• 47:33
  one
• 47:33
  of
• 47:34
  the
• 47:34
  things
• 47:34
  about
• 47:34
  San
• 47:34
  Antonio,
• 47:35
  they
• 47:35
  won
• 47:36
  all
• 47:36
  the
• 47:36
  first
• 47:36
  quarters.
• 47:37
  There's
• 47:37
  times
• 47:37
  that
• 47:38
  they
• 47:38
  could
• 47:38
  be
• 47:38
  going
• 47:39
  at
• 47:39
  like
• 47:40
  120,
• 47:40
  right?
• 47:41
  But
• 47:41
  there
• 47:41
  was
• 47:41
  also
• 47:41
  times
• 47:42
  that
• 47:42
  they
• 47:42
  could
• 47:42
  drop
• 47:43
  into
• 47:43
  that
• 47:44
  60
• 47:44
  to
• 47:44
  75
• 47:45
  range
• 47:46
  speedometer,
• 47:46
  right?
• 47:47
  And
• 47:47
  that's
• 47:47
  what
• 47:48
  the
• 47:48
  Knicks
• 47:48
  kind
• 47:48
  of
• 47:48
  took
• 47:49
  over
• 47:49
  with.
• 47:50
  But
• 47:50
  OG
• 47:50
  Looked
• 47:51
  very
• 47:51
  confident.
• 47:51
  He
• 47:51
  looked
• 47:52
  efficient.
• 47:52
  You
• 47:53
  know,
• 47:53
  none
• 47:53
  of
• 47:53
  the
• 47:53
  team
• 47:53
  looked
• 47:53
  frustrated.
• 47:54
  They
• 47:54
  looked.
• 47:55
  They
• 47:55
  look
• 47:55
  concerned.
• 47:56
  You
• 47:56
  know,
• 47:56
  when
• 47:56
  you
• 47:57
  watch
• 47:57
  them
• 47:57
  on
• 47:57
  tv,
• 47:58
  they
• 47:58
  didn't
• 47:58
  look
• 47:58
  as
• 47:59
  frustrated.
• 47:59
  And
• 48:00
  as
• 48:00
  they
• 48:01
  kept
• 48:01
  coming
• 48:01
  back
• 48:01
  and
• 48:01
  that
• 48:02
  crowd
• 48:02
  kept
• 48:02
  getting
• 48:02
  louder,
• 48:03
  OG
• 48:04
  Never
• 48:04
  wavered,
• 48:04
  but
• 48:05
  that's
• 48:05
  exactly
• 48:05
  who
• 48:05
  he
• 48:06
  is.
• 48:06
  And
• 48:06
  I
• 48:06
  think
• 48:06
  those
• 48:07
  last
• 48:07
  two
• 48:08
  plays
• 48:08
  of
• 48:08
  the
• 48:08
  game
• 48:09
  that
• 48:09
  he
• 48:09
  made
• 48:10
  showed
• 48:11
  not
• 48:11
  only
• 48:11
  his
• 48:11
  athleticism,
• 48:12
  his
• 48:12
  grit,
• 48:14
  you
• 48:15
  know,
• 48:15
  the
• 48:15
  determination
• 48:16
  that
• 48:16
  he
• 48:16
  has
• 48:17
  to
• 48:17
  make
• 48:17
  plays,
• 48:17
  but
• 48:17
  it
• 48:18
  shows
• 48:18
  how
• 48:18
  well
• 48:18
  he
• 48:19
  uses
• 48:19
  his
• 48:19
  athleticism,
• 48:20
  like
• 48:20
  big
• 48:21
  strides.
• 48:21
  You
• 48:22
  know,
• 48:22
  he's
• 48:22
  got
• 48:22
  great
• 48:22
  length,
• 48:23
  so
• 48:23
  he's.
• 48:24
  He
• 48:24
  really
• 48:24
  stretches
• 48:25
  out,
• 48:25
  but
• 48:25
  he's
• 48:26
  always
• 48:26
  down
• 48:26
  and
• 48:27
  ready.
• 48:27
  He's
• 48:27
  not
• 48:27
  one
• 48:27
  of
• 48:28
  those
• 48:28
  guys
• 48:28
  that's
• 48:28
  a
• 48:29
  late
• 48:29
  reactor
• 48:30
  because
• 48:30
  he's
• 48:31
  standing
• 48:31
  straight
• 48:31
  up
• 48:32
  and
• 48:32
  he
• 48:32
  gets
• 48:32
  the
• 48:33
  block
• 48:33
  in
• 48:33
  that
• 48:33
  way.
• 48:34
  And
• 48:34
  then
• 48:35
  the
• 48:35
  offensive
• 48:35
  board
• 48:37
  watching
• 48:37
  that
• 48:37
  play
• 48:37
  happen,
• 48:38
  I
• 48:38
  mean,
• 48:38
  it
• 48:38
  looked
• 48:38
  to
• 48:38
  me
• 48:39
  the
• 48:39
  way
• 48:39
  they
• 48:39
  were
• 48:39
  defending,
• 48:39
  okay,
• 48:40
  he's
• 48:40
  going
• 48:40
  to
• 48:40
  be
• 48:40
  open
• 48:40
  at
• 48:41
  the
• 48:41
  top
• 48:41
  of
• 48:41
  the
• 48:41
  key
• 48:42
  because
• 48:42
  it
• 48:42
  didn't
• 48:42
  look.
• 48:43
  He
• 48:43
  could
• 48:43
  cut,
• 48:43
  but
• 48:44
  that
• 48:44
  was
• 48:44
  not
• 48:44
  something
• 48:45
  that
• 48:45
  they
• 48:45
  usually
• 48:45
  did
• 48:45
  in
• 48:46
  that
• 48:46
  situation.
• 48:47
  So
• 48:47
  he's
• 48:47
  going
• 48:47
  to
• 48:47
  be
• 48:47
  open
• 48:48
  at
• 48:48
  the
• 48:48
  top.
• 48:48
  But
• 48:48
  I
• 48:49
  think
• 48:49
  as
• 48:49
  soon
• 48:49
  as
• 48:49
  he
• 48:49
  saw
• 48:50
  Brunson
• 48:51
  take
• 48:51
  that
• 48:51
  dribble
• 48:52
  right
• 48:52
  with
• 48:52
  the
• 48:52
  double
• 48:53
  team,
• 48:54
  I
• 48:54
  don't
• 48:54
  think
• 48:54
  it
• 48:54
  would
• 48:54
  have
• 48:55
  mattered
• 48:55
  if
• 48:55
  there
• 48:55
  was
• 48:55
  a
• 48:55
  double
• 48:56
  team
• 48:56
  or
• 48:56
  not.
• 48:56
  As
• 48:56
  soon
• 48:56
  as
• 48:56
  he
• 48:57
  saw
• 48:57
  Brunson
• 48:57
  put
• 48:57
  the
• 48:58
  ball
• 48:58
  down,
• 48:58
  he
• 48:58
  was
• 48:58
  gone.
• 48:59
  And
• 49:00
  he
• 49:00
  didn't
• 49:00
  waste
• 49:00
  any
• 49:01
  steps.
• 49:01
  That's
• 49:02
  the
• 49:02
  thing
• 49:02
  that's
• 49:02
  so
• 49:02
  important
• 49:03
  for
• 49:04
  people
• 49:04
  to
• 49:04
  see
• 49:05
  in
• 49:05
  a
• 49:05
  game,
• 49:06
  literally
• 49:07
  of
• 49:07
  inches,
• 49:08
  which
• 49:08
  is
• 49:08
  what
• 49:09
  you're
• 49:09
  trying
• 49:10
  to
• 49:10
  get
• 49:10
  in
• 49:11
  games
• 49:11
  like
• 49:11
  that
• 49:11
  in
• 49:12
  the
• 49:12
  NBA.
• 49:13
  He
• 49:13
  darted,
• 49:14
  he
• 49:14
  turned
• 49:14
  inside,
• 49:15
  he
• 49:15
  didn't
• 49:15
  round
• 49:16
  it
• 49:16
  off,
• 49:16
  he
• 49:16
  didn't
• 49:17
  waste
• 49:17
  motion,
• 49:18
  and
• 49:18
  he
• 49:18
  got
• 49:18
  his
• 49:19
  hand
• 49:19
  straight
• 49:19
  up
• 49:19
  and
• 49:20
  there
• 49:20
  was
• 49:20
  the
• 49:20
  ball.
• 49:20
  I
• 49:20
  mean,
• 49:21
  so
• 49:21
  it
• 49:21
  was
• 49:22
  combination
• 49:22
  of
• 49:23
  being
• 49:23
  in
• 49:23
  the
• 49:23
  right
• 49:23
  place
• 49:24
  at
• 49:24
  the
• 49:24
  right
• 49:24
  time,
• 49:25
  but
• 49:25
  being
• 49:26
  highly
• 49:26
  efficient
• 49:27
  and
• 49:27
  highly
• 49:28
  alert
• 49:28
  and
• 49:28
  aware
• 49:29
  and
• 49:29
  using
• 49:29
  his
• 49:30
  athleticism
• 49:30
  and
• 49:31
  skill
• 49:31
  at
• 49:31
  a
• 49:31
  high
• 49:31
  level.
• 49:32
  We're
• 49:32
  talking
• 49:32
  with
• 49:32
  former
• 49:33
  Indiana
• 49:33
  head
• 49:33
  coach
• 49:34
  Tom
• 49:34
  crean,
• 49:34
  who
• 49:34
  discovered
• 49:35
  OG
• 49:36
  Anunoby
• 49:36
  at
• 49:37
  an
• 49:37
  Under
• 49:37
  Armour
• 49:38
  tournament
• 49:38
  in
• 49:39
  Atlanta
• 49:39
  in
• 49:40
  2015.
• 49:40
  Can
• 49:41
  you
• 49:41
  talk
• 49:41
  about
• 49:41
  the
• 49:41
  recruiting
• 49:42
  search?
• 49:42
  Because
• 49:42
  you
• 49:42
  weren't
• 49:42
  even
• 49:43
  there
• 49:43
  to
• 49:43
  scout
• 49:44
  him.
• 49:44
  I
• 49:44
  think
• 49:44
  you
• 49:44
  had
• 49:44
  to
• 49:44
  go
• 49:45
  find
• 49:45
  his
• 49:45
  name
• 49:45
  on
• 49:45
  a
• 49:46
  roster
• 49:46
  and
• 49:47
  eventually
• 49:48
  it
• 49:48
  came
• 49:48
  down
• 49:48
  to
• 49:49
  a
• 49:49
  nice
• 49:49
  phone
• 49:49
  call
• 49:50
  afterwards
• 49:51
  that
• 49:51
  you
• 49:51
  had
• 49:51
  with
• 49:52
  him.
• 49:52
  So
• 49:52
  can
• 49:52
  you
• 49:52
  talk
• 49:52
  about
• 49:52
  the
• 49:53
  recruiting
• 49:53
  process
• 49:53
  with
• 49:54
  him?
• 49:54
  Sure.
• 49:55
  Every
• 49:55
  bit
• 49:55
  of
• 49:55
  that's
• 49:55
  true.
• 49:56
  We
• 49:56
  go
• 49:56
  into
• 49:56
  a
• 49:56
  tournament
• 49:57
  in
• 49:57
  Under
• 49:57
  Armour
• 49:58
  and
• 49:58
  we're
• 49:58
  going
• 49:59
  to
• 49:59
  see
• 49:59
  a
• 49:59
  lot
• 49:59
  of
• 49:59
  different
• 49:59
  players.
• 50:00
  But
• 50:00
  on
• 50:00
  that
• 50:00
  team,
• 50:01
  particularly
• 50:02
  the
• 50:02
  team
• 50:02
  fading
• 50:03
  team
• 50:03
  that
• 50:04
  was
• 50:04
  coached
• 50:04
  by
• 50:05
  coach
• 50:05
  Norton
• 50:05
  Hurd,
• 50:06
  it
• 50:06
  was
• 50:06
  a
• 50:06
  team
• 50:06
  that
• 50:06
  was
• 50:06
  sponsored
• 50:07
  by
• 50:08
  NBA
• 50:08
  player
• 50:08
  Thaddeus
• 50:09
  Young,
• 50:09
  we
• 50:09
  were
• 50:09
  going
• 50:10
  to
• 50:10
  see
• 50:10
  a
• 50:10
  young
• 50:10
  man,
• 50:10
  611
• 50:11
  player
• 50:11
  named
• 50:12
  Nick
• 50:12
  Marshall,
• 50:13
  who
• 50:13
  ended
• 50:13
  up
• 50:13
  going
• 50:13
  to
• 50:14
  Memphis.
• 50:14
  So
• 50:14
  we
• 50:14
  go
• 50:14
  to
• 50:14
  see
• 50:15
  Nick
• 50:15
  and
• 50:16
  there's
• 50:16
  some
• 50:16
  other
• 50:16
  really
• 50:16
  good
• 50:17
  players
• 50:18
  on
• 50:18
  the
• 50:18
  team
• 50:18
  that
• 50:19
  we
• 50:19
  knew
• 50:19
  about,
• 50:20
  but
• 50:20
  we
• 50:20
  did
• 50:20
  not
• 50:20
  know
• 50:21
  about
• 50:21
  OG
• 50:22
  and
• 50:22
  as
• 50:23
  soon
• 50:23
  as
• 50:23
  the
• 50:23
  game,
• 50:24
  we're
• 50:24
  sitting
• 50:24
  there
• 50:24
  in
• 50:25
  the
• 50:25
  baseline
• 50:26
  and
• 50:26
  he's
• 50:27
  just
• 50:27
  spreading
• 50:27
  out,
• 50:28
  using
• 50:28
  his
• 50:28
  length,
• 50:28
  guarding
• 50:29
  the
• 50:29
  ball,
• 50:29
  on
• 50:30
  the
• 50:30
  ball,
• 50:30
  he's
• 50:30
  trapping
• 50:31
  his
• 50:32
  recovery,
• 50:33
  he's
• 50:33
  going
• 50:33
  to
• 50:33
  the
• 50:34
  offensive
• 50:34
  blast.
• 50:35
  He's
• 50:35
  physical
• 50:36
  around
• 50:36
  the
• 50:36
  paint.
• 50:38
  He
• 50:38
  didn't
• 50:38
  shoot
• 50:38
  a
• 50:38
  lot
• 50:38
  of
• 50:39
  shots.
• 50:39
  We
• 50:39
  watched
• 50:39
  him
• 50:39
  shoot
• 50:40
  some
• 50:40
  free
• 50:40
  throws.
• 50:40
  I
• 50:40
  love
• 50:41
  how
• 50:41
  it
• 50:41
  came
• 50:41
  off
• 50:41
  his
• 50:41
  hand,
• 50:42
  but
• 50:42
  the
• 50:43
  length,
• 50:43
  the
• 50:44
  lower
• 50:45
  body,
• 50:46
  legs
• 50:46
  that
• 50:47
  he
• 50:47
  had,
• 50:48
  his
• 50:48
  explosiveness
• 50:49
  to
• 50:49
  the
• 50:49
  basket
• 50:50
  like
• 50:51
  that
• 50:51
  just
• 50:51
  stood
• 50:51
  out
• 50:51
  to
• 50:52
  you.
• 50:52
  So
• 50:52
  we
• 50:52
  go
• 50:52
  at
• 50:53
  the
• 50:53
  half
• 50:54
  and
• 50:55
  we
• 50:55
  just
• 50:55
  see
• 50:55
  the
• 50:55
  score
• 50:56
  sheet
• 50:56
  because
• 50:56
  his
• 50:57
  name
• 50:57
  is
• 50:57
  not
• 50:57
  on
• 50:58
  the
• 50:58
  roster.
• 50:58
  It's
• 50:58
  not
• 50:59
  in
• 50:59
  the
• 50:59
  book
• 51:00
  that
• 51:00
  the
• 51:00
  three
• 51:00
  of
• 51:00
  us
• 51:01
  had
• 51:01
  paid
• 51:01
  basically
• 51:02
  $750
• 51:03
  for
• 51:03
  to
• 51:04
  get
• 51:04
  in.
• 51:05
  And
• 51:06
  it
• 51:06
  just
• 51:07
  says
• 51:07
  an
• 51:07
  anoby.
• 51:07
  So,
• 51:08
  you
• 51:08
  know,
• 51:08
  you
• 51:08
  got
• 51:08
  to
• 51:08
  do
• 51:08
  some
• 51:09
  research
• 51:09
  on
• 51:09
  a
• 51:10
  name
• 51:10
  like
• 51:10
  an
• 51:10
  anobi.
• 51:11
  Well,
• 51:11
  we
• 51:11
  did,
• 51:12
  and
• 51:13
  before
• 51:14
  I
• 51:14
  talked
• 51:14
  to
• 51:15
  him
• 51:15
  and
• 51:16
  we
• 51:16
  watched
• 51:16
  some
• 51:16
  more
• 51:16
  games
• 51:17
  there
• 51:17
  and
• 51:17
  there's
• 51:17
  no
• 51:17
  question,
• 51:18
  like
• 51:18
  I
• 51:18
  was
• 51:18
  totally
• 51:19
  intrigued.
• 51:20
  But
• 51:20
  I
• 51:21
  got
• 51:21
  film,
• 51:21
  right?
• 51:21
  And
• 51:22
  film
• 51:22
  was
• 51:22
  harder
• 51:23
  to
• 51:23
  get
• 51:24
  10,
• 51:24
  12
• 51:24
  years
• 51:24
  ago
• 51:25
  than
• 51:25
  it
• 51:25
  is
• 51:25
  now.
• 51:25
  I
• 51:26
  mean,
• 51:26
  it
• 51:26
  was.
• 51:26
  You
• 51:26
  could
• 51:27
  get
• 51:27
  it,
• 51:27
  but
• 51:28
  now,
• 51:28
  man,
• 51:28
  you
• 51:28
  can
• 51:28
  just
• 51:29
  google
• 51:29
  anything
• 51:29
  you
• 51:30
  want
• 51:30
  and
• 51:30
  you're
• 51:30
  going
• 51:30
  to
• 51:31
  get
• 51:31
  what
• 51:31
  you
• 51:31
  want.
• 51:31
  So
• 51:32
  we
• 51:32
  got
• 51:32
  the
• 51:32
  film.
• 51:32
  It
• 51:32
  was
• 51:33
  like
• 51:33
  a
• 51:33
  12
• 51:33
  minute
• 51:34
  teaching
• 51:35
  tape,
• 51:35
  right?
• 51:35
  It
• 51:36
  wasn't
• 51:36
  just
• 51:36
  a
• 51:36
  dunk
• 51:36
  show,
• 51:37
  which
• 51:37
  a
• 51:37
  lot
• 51:37
  of
• 51:37
  those
• 51:38
  tapes
• 51:38
  can
• 51:38
  be.
• 51:39
  It
• 51:39
  wasn't
• 51:39
  just
• 51:39
  a
• 51:40
  highlight
• 51:40
  tape,
• 51:40
  it
• 51:41
  was
• 51:41
  a
• 51:41
  teaching
• 51:42
  tape.
• 51:42
  Here's
• 51:42
  what
• 51:43
  he
• 51:43
  looks
• 51:43
  like
• 51:43
  coming
• 51:43
  off
• 51:44
  screens.
• 51:44
  Here's
• 51:45
  how
• 51:45
  he
• 51:45
  gets
• 51:45
  the
• 51:45
  ball
• 51:46
  in
• 51:46
  the
• 51:46
  post.
• 51:47
  Here's
• 51:47
  how
• 51:47
  he's
• 51:47
  defensively.
• 51:48
  The
• 51:49
  coach
• 51:49
  did
• 51:49
  a
• 51:49
  tremendous
• 51:50
  job
• 51:50
  putting
• 51:50
  the
• 51:50
  tape
• 51:50
  together
• 51:51
  because
• 51:51
  that's
• 51:51
  when
• 51:52
  I
• 51:53
  knew
• 51:53
  we
• 51:53
  were
• 51:53
  offering
• 51:54
  him
• 51:54
  as
• 51:54
  soon
• 51:54
  as
• 51:54
  I
• 51:55
  got
• 51:55
  on
• 51:55
  the
• 51:55
  phone
• 51:55
  and
• 51:55
  we
• 51:56
  talked
• 51:56
  for
• 51:56
  about
• 51:56
  an
• 51:56
  hour,
• 51:57
  maybe
• 51:58
  an
• 51:58
  hour
• 51:58
  and
• 51:58
  10
• 51:58
  minutes,
• 51:59
  it
• 52:00
  was
• 52:00
  awesome.
• 52:00
  He
• 52:00
  had
• 52:01
  people
• 52:01
  that
• 52:01
  they
• 52:01
  knew
• 52:02
  in
• 52:02
  Bloomington,
• 52:03
  which
• 52:03
  I
• 52:03
  got
• 52:03
  excited
• 52:04
  about.
• 52:05
  And
• 52:05
  as
• 52:05
  OG
• 52:06
  reminded
• 52:06
  me
• 52:07
  last
• 52:07
  week
• 52:07
  in
• 52:07
  San
• 52:07
  Antonio,
• 52:08
  we're
• 52:09
  standing
• 52:09
  there
• 52:09
  with
• 52:09
  my
• 52:10
  daughters
• 52:10
  and
• 52:10
  his
• 52:10
  brother
• 52:11
  and
• 52:11
  agents
• 52:11
  and
• 52:11
  people
• 52:12
  like
• 52:12
  that.
• 52:12
  And
• 52:12
  he
• 52:12
  said
• 52:13
  he
• 52:13
  got
• 52:14
  12
• 52:14
  offers.
• 52:15
  Shortly
• 52:16
  after
• 52:16
  we
• 52:17
  offered
• 52:17
  him
• 52:17
  at
• 52:17
  Indiana,
• 52:18
  which
• 52:18
  was
• 52:18
  pretty
• 52:19
  cool.
• 52:19
  Yeah,
• 52:19
  but
• 52:20
  we
• 52:20
  beat
• 52:21
  Ole
• 52:21
  Miss,
• 52:21
  we
• 52:21
  beat
• 52:22
  Georgia,
• 52:23
  we
• 52:23
  beat
• 52:23
  Iowa.
• 52:24
  And
• 52:25
  a
• 52:25
  lot
• 52:26
  of
• 52:26
  schools
• 52:26
  looked
• 52:26
  at
• 52:26
  him.
• 52:26
  The
• 52:27
  only
• 52:27
  school
• 52:27
  that
• 52:27
  recruited
• 52:27
  him
• 52:28
  in
• 52:28
  the
• 52:28
  state
• 52:28
  of
• 52:28
  Missouri
• 52:28
  was
• 52:29
  Missouri
• 52:29
  State,
• 52:29
  if
• 52:30
  you
• 52:30
  can
• 52:30
  believe
• 52:30
  that.
• 52:31
  And
• 52:31
  he's
• 52:31
  from
• 52:32
  Jefferson
• 52:32
  City,
• 52:32
  Missouri.
• 52:33
  Yeah.
• 52:33
  You
• 52:34
  know,
• 52:34
  he
• 52:34
  didn't
• 52:34
  have
• 52:34
  the
• 52:35
  ranking.
• 52:35
  You
• 52:35
  know,
• 52:36
  he.
• 52:37
  He
• 52:37
  was
• 52:37
  one
• 52:37
  of
• 52:37
  those
• 52:38
  late
• 52:38
  200
• 52:39
  guys.
• 52:39
  280,
• 52:40
  290,
• 52:40
  something
• 52:41
  like
• 52:41
  that.
• 52:42
  Man,
• 52:42
  I
• 52:42
  didn't
• 52:43
  care.
• 52:43
  Once
• 52:43
  we
• 52:43
  offered
• 52:44
  him,
• 52:44
  he
• 52:44
  was
• 52:45
  a
• 52:45
  priority
• 52:45
  to
• 52:45
  myself
• 52:46
  and
• 52:46
  our
• 52:46
  staff.
• 52:46
  I
• 52:46
  mean,
• 52:47
  he
• 52:47
  was
• 52:47
  an
• 52:47
  absolute
• 52:48
  priority.
• 52:49
  And
• 52:49
  I
• 52:49
  felt
• 52:49
  like
• 52:50
  the
• 52:50
  big
• 52:51
  thing
• 52:51
  when
• 52:51
  we
• 52:51
  talked
• 52:51
  is
• 52:52
  the
• 52:52
  NBA.
• 52:53
  The
• 52:53
  NBA
• 52:54
  big
• 52:54
  to
• 52:54
  all
• 52:54
  the
• 52:55
  kids,
• 52:55
  that
• 52:55
  it
• 52:56
  was
• 52:56
  extremely
• 52:57
  important
• 52:58
  to
• 52:58
  him
• 52:59
  to
• 52:59
  know
• 52:59
  that
• 53:00
  I
• 53:01
  believed
• 53:01
  the
• 53:02
  way
• 53:02
  that
• 53:02
  he
• 53:02
  believed.
• 53:03
  Right.
• 53:03
  Because
• 53:03
  he
• 53:04
  truly
• 53:04
  believed
• 53:04
  he
• 53:05
  was
• 53:05
  going
• 53:05
  to
• 53:05
  be
• 53:05
  an
• 53:05
  NBA
• 53:06
  player.
• 53:06
  And
• 53:06
  it
• 53:07
  wasn't
• 53:07
  just,
• 53:07
  yeah,
• 53:07
  I
• 53:07
  want
• 53:08
  to
• 53:08
  make
• 53:08
  the
• 53:08
  NBA.
• 53:08
  He
• 53:09
  wanted
• 53:09
  to
• 53:09
  absolutely
• 53:10
  know
• 53:10
  the
• 53:10
  plan
• 53:11
  and
• 53:11
  how
• 53:11
  we
• 53:12
  were
• 53:12
  going
• 53:12
  to
• 53:12
  get
• 53:12
  it.
• 53:12
  And
• 53:13
  the
• 53:13
  big
• 53:13
  thing
• 53:13
  to
• 53:13
  me,
• 53:14
  and
• 53:14
  I
• 53:14
  sold
• 53:15
  him
• 53:15
  on
• 53:15
  this
• 53:15
  because
• 53:15
  I
• 53:15
  felt
• 53:16
  I
• 53:16
  was
• 53:16
  right
• 53:16
  with
• 53:16
  the
• 53:17
  experience
• 53:17
  that
• 53:17
  we
• 53:17
  had
• 53:17
  with
• 53:18
  other
• 53:18
  guys.
• 53:19
  You
• 53:19
  will
• 53:20
  not
• 53:20
  be
• 53:20
  here
• 53:20
  four
• 53:20
  years.
• 53:21
  The
• 53:21
  max,
• 53:22
  three
• 53:22
  years.
• 53:23
  And
• 53:23
  if
• 53:23
  it
• 53:23
  goes
• 53:23
  right,
• 53:24
  you'll
• 53:24
  be
• 53:24
  out
• 53:24
  of
• 53:24
  here
• 53:24
  in
• 53:25
  two.
• 53:25
  And
• 53:26
  he
• 53:26
  did
• 53:27
  it.
• 53:27
  Plus
• 53:27
  he
• 53:27
  left.
• 53:28
  He
• 53:28
  left.
• 53:29
  He
• 53:29
  left
• 53:30
  basically
• 53:30
  academically.
• 53:31
  I
• 53:32
  don't
• 53:32
  talk
• 53:32
  about
• 53:32
  this
• 53:32
  enough.
• 53:33
  He
• 53:34
  left
• 53:34
  basically
• 53:34
  academic
• 53:35
  after
• 53:35
  two
• 53:35
  years.
• 53:36
  He
• 53:36
  was
• 53:36
  supposed
• 53:36
  to
• 53:36
  be
• 53:36
  in
• 53:37
  a
• 53:38
  mid
• 53:39
  junior,
• 53:40
  really,
• 53:40
  by
• 53:40
  the
• 53:40
  time
• 53:40
  he
• 53:41
  left.
• 53:41
  He
• 53:41
  did
• 53:41
  a
• 53:41
  great
• 53:42
  job
• 53:42
  in
• 53:42
  school.
• 53:42
  Oh,
• 53:43
  he's
• 53:43
  so
• 53:43
  smart,
• 53:43
  man.
• 53:44
  He's
• 53:44
  so.
• 53:45
  He's
• 53:45
  so
• 53:45
  smart.
• 53:46
  He's
• 53:46
  got
• 53:46
  humility.
• 53:47
  What
• 53:47
  you
• 53:48
  see
• 53:48
  is
• 53:48
  what
• 53:48
  you
• 53:48
  get.
• 53:49
  Right?
• 53:49
  He's
• 53:49
  not
• 53:49
  a.
• 53:50
  He's
• 53:50
  not
• 53:50
  an
• 53:50
  actor.
• 53:51
  That's
• 53:51
  who
• 53:52
  he
• 53:52
  is.
• 53:52
  Right?
• 53:52
  I
• 53:53
  mean,
• 53:53
  that's
• 53:53
  absolutely
• 53:53
  who
• 53:54
  he
• 53:54
  is.
• 53:54
  He's
• 53:54
  not
• 53:55
  going
• 53:55
  to
• 53:55
  run
• 53:55
  at
• 53:55
  the
• 53:56
  mouth.
• 53:56
  He's
• 53:56
  not
• 53:56
  trying
• 53:57
  to
• 53:57
  be
• 53:57
  in
• 53:57
  every
• 53:57
  photo.
• 53:58
  He's
• 53:58
  not
• 53:58
  trying
• 53:58
  to
• 53:58
  be
• 53:59
  at
• 53:59
  every
• 53:59
  party.
• 54:00
  At
• 54:00
  least
• 54:00
  he
• 54:00
  wasn't
• 54:00
  until
• 54:01
  last
• 54:01
  week.
• 54:01
  Now
• 54:01
  he's
• 54:02
  at
• 54:02
  every
• 54:02
  party.
• 54:04
  He
• 54:04
  wasn't
• 54:05
  like
• 54:05
  that.
• 54:05
  And
• 54:06
  he's
• 54:06
  not
• 54:06
  like
• 54:06
  that.
• 54:06
  Yeah,
• 54:07
  he
• 54:07
  deserves
• 54:07
  this.
• 54:08
  He
• 54:08
  deserves
• 54:09
  to
• 54:09
  be
• 54:09
  having
• 54:09
  this
• 54:09
  fun.
• 54:10
  I
• 54:10
  was
• 54:10
  going
• 54:10
  to
• 54:11
  ask
• 54:11
  you.
• 54:11
  He
• 54:11
  doesn't
• 54:11
  turn
• 54:12
  29
• 54:12
  years
• 54:12
  old
• 54:12
  until
• 54:14
  mid
• 54:14
  next
• 54:14
  month.
• 54:15
  You
• 54:15
  know,
• 54:16
  he
• 54:16
  seems
• 54:17
  very
• 54:17
  wise
• 54:17
  beyond
• 54:18
  his
• 54:18
  years.
• 54:19
  Very
• 54:19
  cool,
• 54:19
  calm
• 54:20
  and
• 54:20
  even
• 54:20
  keeled.
• 54:21
  Always
• 54:21
  like
• 54:22
  that,
• 54:22
  I
• 54:22
  assume.
• 54:24
  Absolutely.
• 54:25
  And
• 54:25
  that's
• 54:25
  how
• 54:25
  they
• 54:25
  were
• 54:25
  raised.
• 54:26
  You
• 54:26
  know,
• 54:27
  his
• 54:27
  dad,
• 54:28
  who
• 54:28
  passed
• 54:28
  away
• 54:29
  in
• 54:29
  his
• 54:30
  second
• 54:30
  year
• 54:31
  in
• 54:31
  the
• 54:31
  NBA
• 54:32
  in
• 54:32
  Toronto,
• 54:33
  the
• 54:33
  year
• 54:33
  they
• 54:33
  won
• 54:34
  the
• 54:34
  championship,
• 54:34
  he
• 54:34
  had
• 54:35
  had.
• 54:36
  He'd
• 54:36
  had
• 54:36
  illness.
• 54:37
  I
• 54:37
  mean,
• 54:37
  he
• 54:37
  had
• 54:37
  sickness,
• 54:38
  he
• 54:38
  had
• 54:38
  injury,
• 54:39
  and
• 54:39
  he
• 54:39
  lost
• 54:39
  his
• 54:40
  father.
• 54:40
  I
• 54:40
  mean,
• 54:40
  you
• 54:40
  can't
• 54:41
  imagine
• 54:41
  a
• 54:41
  much
• 54:42
  worse
• 54:42
  year.
• 54:42
  And
• 54:43
  that's
• 54:43
  why
• 54:43
  this
• 54:43
  championship
• 54:44
  was
• 54:44
  so
• 54:44
  special,
• 54:44
  because
• 54:45
  even
• 54:45
  though
• 54:45
  he
• 54:45
  was
• 54:45
  a
• 54:45
  part
• 54:46
  of
• 54:46
  that
• 54:46
  championship,
• 54:47
  he
• 54:47
  never
• 54:48
  felt
• 54:48
  disconnected
• 54:48
  to
• 54:49
  it.
• 54:49
  The
• 54:49
  year
• 54:49
  before,
• 54:49
  he
• 54:50
  had
• 54:50
  started
• 54:51
  60
• 54:51
  some
• 54:52
  odd
• 54:52
  games
• 54:53
  on
• 54:53
  the
• 54:53
  number
• 54:54
  one
• 54:54
  seed
• 54:54
  in
• 54:54
  the
• 54:54
  East.
• 54:55
  When
• 54:56
  DeMar
• 54:56
  DeRozan
• 54:57
  was
• 54:57
  there,
• 54:57
  Kyle
• 54:57
  Lowry,
• 54:57
  I
• 54:58
  mean,
• 54:58
  he
• 54:58
  was
• 54:58
  guarding
• 54:58
  guys
• 54:59
  like
• 55:00
  John
• 55:00
  Wall
• 55:00
  and
• 55:01
  Bradley
• 55:01
  Beal
• 55:01
  in
• 55:01
  the
• 55:02
  first
• 55:02
  round
• 55:02
  of
• 55:02
  the
• 55:02
  playoffs.
• 55:03
  And
• 55:03
  then
• 55:03
  they
• 55:04
  play
• 55:04
  Cleveland
• 55:04
  and
• 55:05
  his
• 55:05
  assignment
• 55:05
  is
• 55:06
  LeBron.
• 55:06
  I
• 55:06
  mean,
• 55:06
  and
• 55:07
  he's
• 55:08
  like
• 55:08
  20,
• 55:09
  right?
• 55:09
  Like
• 55:09
  that's.
• 55:10
  And
• 55:10
  he's
• 55:10
  doing
• 55:11
  all
• 55:11
  that.
• 55:11
  And
• 55:11
  that's
• 55:11
  coming
• 55:12
  off
• 55:12
  the
• 55:12
  knee
• 55:12
  injury
• 55:12
  that
• 55:13
  I
• 55:13
  really
• 55:13
  don't
• 55:13
  believe.
• 55:14
  Toronto
• 55:15
  probably
• 55:15
  thought
• 55:15
  he
• 55:15
  was
• 55:16
  going
• 55:16
  to
• 55:16
  play
• 55:16
  at
• 55:16
  all
• 55:16
  that
• 55:17
  year
• 55:17
  because
• 55:18
  of
• 55:18
  the
• 55:18
  injury,
• 55:18
  but
• 55:19
  he
• 55:19
  recovered.
• 55:19
  But.
• 55:20
  No,
• 55:20
  but
• 55:20
  that's
• 55:20
  who
• 55:20
  he
• 55:20
  is.
• 55:21
  That's
• 55:21
  why
• 55:21
  his
• 55:21
  work
• 55:22
  ethic
• 55:23
  is.
• 55:24
  You
• 55:24
  don't
• 55:24
  see
• 55:25
  that.
• 55:25
  He
• 55:25
  gets
• 55:25
  a
• 55:26
  lot
• 55:26
  of
• 55:26
  videos
• 55:27
  of
• 55:27
  other
• 55:27
  people
• 55:28
  and
• 55:28
  he
• 55:28
  gets
• 55:28
  his
• 55:28
  videos
• 55:29
  taped,
• 55:29
  but
• 55:29
  you
• 55:29
  don't
• 55:29
  ever
• 55:30
  see
• 55:30
  him
• 55:30
  putting
• 55:30
  his
• 55:30
  stuff
• 55:31
  out.
• 55:32
  He's
• 55:32
  very,
• 55:32
  very
• 55:32
  private.
• 55:34
  He's
• 55:34
  very
• 55:36
  subdued.
• 55:36
  But
• 55:37
  he
• 55:37
  is
• 55:37
  a
• 55:37
  vicious
• 55:38
  worker.
• 55:39
  And
• 55:39
  when
• 55:39
  it
• 55:39
  comes
• 55:40
  to
• 55:40
  the
• 55:40
  summertime,
• 55:41
  I'm
• 55:41
  sure
• 55:41
  it
• 55:41
  won't
• 55:41
  be
• 55:41
  too
• 55:41
  long
• 55:42
  from
• 55:42
  now.
• 55:43
  He
• 55:43
  will
• 55:43
  get
• 55:44
  back,
• 55:44
  he
• 55:44
  will
• 55:44
  get
• 55:44
  to
• 55:44
  his
• 55:45
  two
• 55:45
  days.
• 55:45
  He
• 55:45
  doesn't
• 55:46
  need
• 55:46
  to
• 55:46
  do
• 55:46
  it
• 55:46
  yet,
• 55:47
  but
• 55:47
  he
• 55:47
  will
• 55:47
  get
• 55:48
  to
• 55:48
  those
• 55:48
  two
• 55:48
  days
• 55:49
  and
• 55:50
  he
• 55:50
  will
• 55:50
  be
• 55:50
  rolling.
• 55:50
  And
• 55:51
  you
• 55:51
  will
• 55:51
  continue
• 55:51
  to
• 55:52
  see
• 55:52
  a
• 55:52
  guy.
• 55:53
  New
• 55:53
  York
• 55:53
  will
• 55:53
  continue
• 55:54
  to
• 55:54
  see
• 55:54
  a
• 55:54
  guy
• 55:54
  that
• 55:54
  just
• 55:55
  has.
• 55:56
  He
• 55:56
  believes
• 55:56
  he
• 55:56
  has
• 55:56
  no
• 55:57
  limits
• 55:57
  to
• 55:57
  his
• 55:57
  game.
• 55:57
  He
• 55:58
  wants
• 55:58
  to
• 55:58
  be
• 55:58
  a
• 55:58
  great
• 55:59
  player.
• 56:00
  He
• 56:00
  wants
• 56:00
  to
• 56:00
  be
• 56:00
  known
• 56:01
  as
• 56:01
  a
• 56:01
  great
• 56:01
  player
• 56:01
  that
• 56:02
  wins.
• 56:02
  He's
• 56:03
  proven
• 56:03
  that.
• 56:03
  And
• 56:04
  I
• 56:04
  think
• 56:04
  he'll
• 56:04
  come
• 56:05
  back
• 56:05
  and
• 56:05
  I
• 56:05
  hope
• 56:05
  that
• 56:05
  whole
• 56:06
  team
• 56:06
  does.
• 56:06
  I
• 56:06
  think
• 56:07
  they'll
• 56:07
  come
• 56:08
  back
• 56:08
  hungrier
• 56:08
  than
• 56:08
  ever.
• 56:09
  I
• 56:09
  know
• 56:09
  OG
• 56:09
  will
• 56:10
  coach.
• 56:10
  We
• 56:11
  don't
• 56:11
  have
• 56:11
  much
• 56:11
  time.
• 56:11
  Banana.
• 56:12
  Again,
• 56:12
  we
• 56:12
  appreciate
• 56:12
  your
• 56:13
  time,
• 56:13
  but
• 56:13
  when
• 56:14
  did
• 56:14
  you
• 56:14
  know
• 56:14
  he
• 56:14
  was
• 56:14
  going
• 56:15
  to
• 56:15
  be
• 56:15
  this
• 56:15
  good?
• 56:15
  Was
• 56:16
  it
• 56:16
  after
• 56:17
  the
• 56:17
  knee
• 56:17
  injury
• 56:18
  in
• 56:18
  college
• 56:18
  when
• 56:18
  he
• 56:19
  won
• 56:19
  his
• 56:19
  first
• 56:19
  NBA
• 56:20
  championship?
• 56:20
  When
• 56:20
  did
• 56:21
  you
• 56:21
  know
• 56:21
  he
• 56:21
  was
• 56:21
  going
• 56:21
  to
• 56:21
  be
• 56:22
  this
• 56:22
  OG
• 56:24
  well,
• 56:24
  we
• 56:24
  could.
• 56:24
  See
• 56:25
  it
• 56:25
  coming
• 56:25
  his
• 56:25
  freshman
• 56:26
  year.
• 56:26
  And
• 56:26
  then
• 56:26
  he
• 56:27
  missed
• 56:27
  a
• 56:27
  lot
• 56:27
  of
• 56:27
  time
• 56:28
  leading
• 56:28
  up
• 56:28
  to
• 56:28
  his
• 56:29
  sophomore
• 56:29
  year,
• 56:30
  but
• 56:30
  he
• 56:30
  went
• 56:30
  into
• 56:30
  the
• 56:31
  sophomore
• 56:31
  year
• 56:31
  as
• 56:31
  a
• 56:31
  lottery
• 56:32
  pick
• 56:32
  and
• 56:32
  then
• 56:32
  he
• 56:32
  missed
• 56:32
  eight
• 56:33
  his
• 56:33
  last
• 56:33
  18
• 56:33
  games.
• 56:34
  He
• 56:35
  missed
• 56:35
  those
• 56:35
  for
• 56:35
  us.
• 56:36
  So
• 56:36
  I
• 56:36
  would
• 56:36
  say
• 56:37
  this.
• 56:38
  I
• 56:38
  knew
• 56:38
  that
• 56:39
  I
• 56:39
  always
• 56:40
  felt
• 56:40
  he
• 56:40
  was
• 56:40
  going
• 56:40
  to
• 56:40
  be
• 56:40
  a
• 56:41
  really
• 56:41
  good
• 56:41
  pro.
• 56:41
  But
• 56:41
  I
• 56:42
  would
• 56:42
  go
• 56:42
  to
• 56:42
  his
• 56:42
  rookie
• 56:43
  year
• 56:43
  because
• 56:44
  the
• 56:44
  way
• 56:44
  he
• 56:44
  came
• 56:44
  back
• 56:45
  from
• 56:45
  that
• 56:45
  injury,
• 56:45
  the
• 56:45
  way
• 56:46
  he
• 56:46
  started,
• 56:47
  I
• 56:47
  mean
• 56:47
  his
• 56:47
  assignments
• 56:48
  at
• 56:48
  that
• 56:48
  point,
• 56:48
  he's
• 56:49
  guarding
• 56:49
  Dwyane
• 56:49
  Wade,
• 56:50
  he's
• 56:50
  guarding
• 56:50
  Paul
• 56:50
  George,
• 56:51
  he's
• 56:51
  guarding
• 56:51
  Victor
• 56:51
  Oladipo.
• 56:52
  Like
• 56:53
  I
• 56:53
  said,
• 56:54
  he's
• 56:54
  switching
• 56:54
  between
• 56:55
  John
• 56:55
  Wall
• 56:55
  and
• 56:56
  Brad
• 56:56
  Beal.
• 56:57
  The
• 56:57
  first
• 56:57
  round
• 56:57
  of
• 56:57
  Guardian
• 56:58
  LeBron.
• 56:58
  That's
• 56:59
  when
• 56:59
  I
• 56:59
  knew
• 57:00
  that
• 57:00
  there,
• 57:00
  there
• 57:01
  is
• 57:01
  no
• 57:02
  limits
• 57:02
  to
• 57:03
  what
• 57:03
  he
• 57:03
  can
• 57:03
  do.
• 57:03
  If
• 57:04
  he
• 57:04
  can
• 57:04
  come
• 57:04
  back
• 57:04
  from
• 57:04
  the
• 57:05
  injury
• 57:05
  and
• 57:05
  be
• 57:05
  able
• 57:05
  to
• 57:05
  play
• 57:05
  at
• 57:06
  that
• 57:06
  level,
• 57:07
  there's
• 57:07
  no
• 57:07
  doubt
• 57:08
  he
• 57:08
  is
• 57:08
  going
• 57:08
  to
• 57:08
  be
• 57:09
  a
• 57:09
  great
• 57:09
  player.
• 57:09
  He
• 57:09
  should
• 57:09
  have
• 57:10
  already
• 57:10
  been
• 57:10
  an
• 57:10
  all
• 57:10
  star.
• 57:11
  He
• 57:11
  should
• 57:11
  have
• 57:11
  already
• 57:12
  been
• 57:12
  first
• 57:12
  team,
• 57:12
  all
• 57:13
  defense.
• 57:13
  I
• 57:13
  hope
• 57:13
  now
• 57:14
  that
• 57:15
  people
• 57:15
  see
• 57:16
  him
• 57:17
  in
• 57:17
  a
• 57:17
  different
• 57:17
  light
• 57:18
  that
• 57:18
  he
• 57:18
  gets
• 57:19
  those
• 57:19
  things
• 57:19
  earlier.
• 57:19
  But
• 57:20
  we
• 57:20
  saw
• 57:20
  it
• 57:20
  early,
• 57:20
  there's
• 57:21
  no
• 57:21
  doubt
• 57:21
  about
• 57:21
  that.
• 57:22
  Well,
• 57:22
  coach,
• 57:23
  we
• 57:23
  can't
• 57:23
  thank
• 57:23

  enough
• 57:23
  for
• 57:23
  being
• 57:24
  on
• 57:24
  safe
• 57:24
  travels.
• 57:25
  Eventually
• 57:25
  when
• 57:25

• 57:25
  get
• 57:25
