  Speaker 2: your radio guy, Kyle. We're on the other side of

• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Hey, man, first of all, welcome to Denver. I mean,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: let's go back. Your thoughts on the Mile High City.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, as far as what, basketball or off
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: the court?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Just like basketball, on the team, the city, the whole nine.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I love it. You know, obviously it's
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: a big city, but it's kind of slow-paced for a
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: big city. You know, obviously love the organization, super grateful
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: to be here.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, I mean, I love it.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Trevin, you're given an opportunity to start tonight with a
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: starting group that is exceptional in this league. What did
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Aaron Gordon tell you going into this opportunity, and how
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: has he been insightful in helping you get ready?
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Man, he's been impactful and insightful for me in every way.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: You know, I have questions about every part of the game,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: and he's been there for me to, you know, help
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: me get up to speed with the starters. So, you know,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: obviously him being out, he was really vocal with me tonight.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: You know, just appreciate him for that.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: You know, Trevin, I ask almost every rookie this question.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: And, you know, I don't know if you want to
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: vocalize it or whatever, but, you know, everybody asks you
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: about Joker and Jamal and all that stuff.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: But is it a learning process?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Like, I guess my advice for you is when Joker's
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: on the floor and you are, be ready at all times, right?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, I missed a couple balls tonight. You know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: I got them. get my eyes up on, you know,
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: these transition runs because, I mean, you never know when
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: that ball is coming. So, you know, just trying to stay,
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: you know, prepared in the fast break because, you know,
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: playing with Jokic, you never know when that ball is coming.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: It felt like Trevon tonight defensively, particularly in that first quarter,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: you guys were really trying to set the tone. What
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: was that group trying to accomplish?
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, just like you said, trying to set the
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: tone for the night with physicality, doing our schemes, and
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: just trying to be better defensively than we were last game.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Well, Trevin, go celebrate with your team, man. We appreciate
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: the time. Appreciate you guys.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Thanks, CB.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: There he goes.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Trevin Brazil, the rookie, 5 of 7 shooting tonight, finishes
