- 3:11Speaker 1: of Texas, you know, going on my tenth season, and
- 3:13Speaker 1: uh man, I grew up there, but I've been in
- 3:15Speaker 1: I was a teenager, so that's always loved.
- 3:17Speaker 4: With you man, for real.
- 3:18Speaker 2: For show Man, we always tried to show up talking
- 3:19Speaker 2: about some kicks. You know, you are Kobe a fishingado
- 3:21Speaker 2: man before the wave was popular with some of your
- 3:23Speaker 2: favorite Kobe's the hoop Man. Some of the reverse granches
- 3:26Speaker 2: that came out this year was tough to me because
- 3:28Speaker 2: everybody had the obsession with the Grench Prince discerence man.
- 3:30Speaker 2: But then when they finally got some of my sides
- 3:32Speaker 2: and eighteen. You know I had to jump on that
- 3:33Speaker 2: right away. So then it's cool D. Yeah you got
- 3:37Speaker 2: a chuck in eighteen. That's crazy.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Man's got a plug, shut out man. But uh yeah,
- 3:45Speaker 1: then them Bruce Lee joints was fired too. I was
- 3:47Speaker 1: in them for a minute of them Kobe as I'm
- 3:48Speaker 1: wearing the same Kobe's the past three seasons.
- 3:50Speaker 4: Bro, you can fact check that you.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Want the people definitely had the c Man. I'm gonna say,
- 3:55Speaker 2: you know you in a Big three with the Bruce Lee.
- 3:57Speaker 4: Five on it? Yeah, I look, well, no, I don't get.
- 4:03Speaker 5: But now I love the Kobe too. I rock with
- 4:05Speaker 5: the Kobes. But I remember you used to wear Kd's too.
- 4:08Speaker 4: Yeah yeah.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Coming out of Texas, KD was obviously one of my
- 4:10Speaker 1: favorite players and whatnot. They was the most comfortable because
- 4:13Speaker 1: we have like a similar like foot like type or whatever,
- 4:15Speaker 1: so they had engineered to fit his foot and it
- 4:17Speaker 1: feel pretty good.
- 4:18Speaker 2: But just started rocking with the Kobe. Man, this is
- 4:20Speaker 2: the most comfortable fact for show Man. We're gonna start
- 4:23Speaker 2: with the orders. Obviously, you know you went crazy in
- 4:25Speaker 2: high school and you know, so you want the people
- 4:26Speaker 2: who kind of started to trend to like the late
- 4:28Speaker 2: commit to school.
- 4:29Speaker 4: What made you commit to Texas?
- 4:31Speaker 1: There was a lot of reasons, man, I really growing
- 4:34Speaker 1: up and people always tell me all the time. I
- 4:36Speaker 1: didn't know if it wasn't like, you know, take a
- 4:37Speaker 1: fence and out they say, you're a Duke guy. You know,
- 4:38Speaker 1: you're just like a Duke guy. So I took that
- 4:41Speaker 1: a rams. I said, Oh, I want to go do it.
- 4:42Speaker 1: I want to go to Duke. But then actually being
- 4:44Speaker 1: a Texas kid and uh, thinking about like all the
- 4:46Speaker 1: branding and everything that comes with it afterwards has really
- 4:49Speaker 1: moved a needle for me.
- 4:49Speaker 4: You know, my mom told me Lily day before I commit.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Just listen, I'm not gonna tell you what to do,
- 4:53Speaker 1: but if you have to think about yourself, You're only
- 4:55Speaker 1: gonna be there for a year.
- 4:56Speaker 4: You're a Texas kid.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Everybody knows what this means, that the richest school in
- 4:59Speaker 1: the world, Like, you know, just you know, consider everything,
- 5:03Speaker 1: and it's really had its benefits for me.
- 5:05Speaker 4: Real for sure.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Listen, I'm say, I'm sure you got a little bit
- 5:07Speaker 2: of love. What the nil situation in Texas?
- 5:12Speaker 4: You might have stayed a couple of years.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Boy, how much money you think you would have got
- 5:15Speaker 1: a textas I was the number two pick coming into
- 5:18Speaker 1: our number two uh player in high school, you know,
- 5:21Speaker 1: coming into us, so that obviously had a lot to
- 5:22Speaker 1: do with it. You can easily get like five mil bro, God,
- 5:25Speaker 1: I think I think easy bro with the way you know,
- 5:29Speaker 1: a little yeah, they show a little love meet the
- 5:31Speaker 1: table love.
- 5:32Speaker 4: But you know, like a arch man and it ain't
- 5:34Speaker 4: even playing, you know what I'm saying? Like that checked,
- 5:37Speaker 4: my boy Mill would have been filthy in school.
- 5:41Speaker 3: I wonder if nil was opened up and like in
- 5:42Speaker 3: high school for Texas like early, because I know some
- 5:45Speaker 3: some places.
- 5:47Speaker 4: Kelly, Yeah, some places it is.
- 5:49Speaker 3: But when you played with a Texas select, yeah, I
- 5:52Speaker 3: was decent. You would have it. Probably broke a bag
- 5:54Speaker 3: off for sure.
- 5:56Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a That was my coming out party because
- 5:58Speaker 1: I missed, uh that soft More summer.
- 6:00Speaker 4: You know that's the big recruit summow.
- 6:01Speaker 1: I broke my ankle and I missed the entire summer,
- 6:04Speaker 1: so I came back on the scene that summer.
- 6:06Speaker 4: I went crazy. I remember you played for them, bro, Yeah,
- 6:09Speaker 4: filthy shure man.
- 6:10Speaker 2: Look we all Naptown babysitter. How was it your first
- 6:13Speaker 2: town church time? Touching down and that, you know.
- 6:16Speaker 1: It was different for me because Dallas is so fast
- 6:19Speaker 1: paced and it's coming from where I've come from, and
- 6:20Speaker 1: then you get some more kind of blue collar, like
- 6:22Speaker 1: hardworking city like Indie. You know, I just didn't know
- 6:26Speaker 1: what to expect right but like immediately as soon as
- 6:28Speaker 1: I touched round Bro, it was love. Like. I mean,
- 6:30Speaker 1: it's such a basketball state, as y'all know, I had
- 6:33Speaker 1: never I've obviously seen the movies and I heard about it,
- 6:35Speaker 1: but actually being there, you know, going down to au
- 6:37Speaker 1: going to Butler, like seeing like that college basketball atmosphere,
- 6:40Speaker 1: like it changed a lot of stuff for me. So
- 6:42Speaker 1: I definitely don't love it right away. Man, it was
- 6:44Speaker 1: the perfect situation for me. I didn't need to be
- 6:47Speaker 1: anywhere else. I needed a slow pace, like a city
- 6:50Speaker 1: for me just to grow up in as opposed to
- 6:52Speaker 1: a fast pace like Miami, La.
- 6:54Speaker 4: You know whatever.
- 6:54Speaker 1: It was just splittery, an ideal situation. Boy, you're good.
- 6:57Speaker 1: You got drafted to the Heat. I got drafted to Atlanta.
- 7:03Speaker 1: They threw me in the fire. I ain't been the
- 7:05Speaker 1: same thing. I can't say you play around too much.
- 7:09Speaker 1: I don't start clarified that mouse just said something. It
- 7:14Speaker 1: was like that was my coming out party. I was like, man,
- 7:17Speaker 1: I was going with that Rod, I'm chilling. I'm chilling,
- 7:24Speaker 1: that be rocking back.
- 7:30Speaker 7: I had this good speech. You know, I ruined it.
- 7:33Speaker 4: Bro. That's fine, man, you're right, You're right. Now. Did
- 7:37Speaker 4: you see the corn fields when you were flying in?
- 7:39Speaker 1: Though I definite drove out to him, I ain't never
- 7:41Speaker 1: really just like I guess I was paying attention. But
- 7:44Speaker 1: it do look crazy like nowadays, like looking over just knowing,
- 7:47Speaker 1: like the weird little like alien ship they be talking
- 7:49Speaker 1: about with it, talking about the conspiracies and ship.
- 7:54Speaker 4: I don't know. I'll be on tiktoking, might go back
- 7:56Speaker 4: to the eight.
- 7:58Speaker 5: I don't know about that different down there.
- 8:06Speaker 4: It's all love with your boy.
- 8:08Speaker 2: Hey man, I got talking to the first time I'll
- 8:09Speaker 2: meet man y'all. As a Patiss fan, y'all was one
- 8:11Speaker 2: of the mostality and rosters that pissed me off as
- 8:13Speaker 2: a Patiss fan. I still love y'all, true, but ch'all
- 8:15Speaker 2: had to fucked up. But I understand why I want
- 8:17Speaker 2: to hear y'all first interaction.
- 8:19Speaker 4: Man.
- 8:19Speaker 5: Now, so I knew Miles from Andy Miller. Okay, so
- 8:23Speaker 5: when I came in.
- 8:24Speaker 4: Jr.
- 8:24Speaker 5: And Miles had kind of already knew each other, so
- 8:26Speaker 5: he introduced us, and I was I was taken back
- 8:29Speaker 5: because we started scrimmaging, hooping. I'm like, damn, this motherfucking
- 8:32Speaker 5: do everything. And I didn't know, like you know, I'm like, damn,
- 8:35Speaker 5: he coul drive, we could shoot, y'all bounced like what
- 8:37Speaker 5: the hell. I was like, I he the best player
- 8:39Speaker 5: on the team. Like to me, I'm not gonna be
- 8:41Speaker 5: the best player. So I just I'm a point guard.
- 8:43Speaker 5: I go to the big man. I started talking to
- 8:45Speaker 5: him like, are we gonna do this picking roll? Like
- 8:47Speaker 5: We're gonna pick and roll to death? And that's just
- 8:48Speaker 5: kind of how we built our relationship.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Oh yeah, bro, that's just like that, bro, because like
- 8:53Speaker 1: like and stood a lot of confidence in me. Bro,
- 8:55Speaker 1: Like my first I guess, my my year, my second year.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I saw these past years, my first like real like
- 9:00Speaker 1: great great year, rookie years on my feet west second year,
- 9:02Speaker 1: I really started to come out. But yeah, bro, I
- 9:05Speaker 1: just I didn't really know what my game was at
- 9:07Speaker 1: the time. Like I knew what I was good at,
- 9:09Speaker 1: but I was still trying to kind of trying to
- 9:10Speaker 1: fit the mold of the NBA game as opposed to
- 9:12Speaker 1: making people fit around me. And we had that picking
- 9:15Speaker 1: popship going, bro, Yeah for so quick, like getting downhill,
- 9:18Speaker 1: like the defender had to make a decision, so chemistry
- 9:20Speaker 1: just like it was like road.
- 9:21Speaker 4: Right away, Noah, for sure.
- 9:23Speaker 5: That's why when I see you play now, like how
- 9:25Speaker 5: y'all play spread on the floor, I'm like, damn.
- 9:27Speaker 4: If Nate would have.
- 9:28Speaker 8: Just let that first game now he got like thirty
- 9:33Speaker 8: five against you had the facts man, I was like,
- 9:39Speaker 8: I was like, Nah, hes gonna be cold.
- 9:40Speaker 4: I got you one.
- 9:41Speaker 5: Nah, I knew I said cold. I remember him and
- 9:45Speaker 5: Cat was very similar. I was like, damn when I
- 9:47Speaker 5: first seen himhen I first seen Cam, Like, Yo, Miles
- 9:49Speaker 5: playing very very similar. You just got more freedom, Cat,
- 9:53Speaker 5: I'm like, Miles ain't got the freedom you got, but
- 9:55Speaker 5: they very similar.
- 9:57Speaker 4: Fight.
- 9:57Speaker 1: With that, my whole career finally started to get It's
- 10:00Speaker 1: a more confident myself in my game, Bro. I mean,
- 10:02Speaker 1: I've going on your team, just kind of reflecting like
- 10:05Speaker 1: I just if I would have had that confidence been earlier,
- 10:07Speaker 1: you know, directed my creal to have been different. But
- 10:09Speaker 1: I don't make mistakes man, like I'm just happy work.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Chris still very brother, Bro.
- 10:13Speaker 7: Have you always played out on the perimeter though, or.
- 10:17Speaker 4: Yeah, for the most part.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Even in high school, I stressed the floor quite a bit,
- 10:21Speaker 1: but I would say that I really started doing it
- 10:25Speaker 1: more like my second and third season. I don't real
- 10:27Speaker 1: shoot no threes my rookie year, my first ever nationaltigue.
- 10:31Speaker 1: I remember that ship. We were playing Atlanta. It was
- 10:33Speaker 1: the first time I got my first start and it
- 10:35Speaker 1: was against them, and I had a really unorthodox shot
- 10:39Speaker 1: my first couple of years, like in the post, like
- 10:40Speaker 1: I knew it wasn't strong enough about shoot exactly is
- 10:44Speaker 1: but it's like literally just jump and turn around and shoot.
- 10:46Speaker 4: And I remember I had it.
- 10:47Speaker 1: I was on our horforit and I hit that niggas
- 10:49Speaker 1: he was like, man, hell no.
- 10:59Speaker 4: You don't want to. It was a confidence.
- 11:02Speaker 5: Turn around, so we I remember that Bro was like,
- 11:05Speaker 5: you post up and he don't even look. He just
- 11:07Speaker 5: turned the shoot. But he was taller than everybody. So
- 11:09Speaker 5: that was what I got away with. In college.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Like I knew it wasn't like physically stronger than but
- 11:13Speaker 1: like I was quick and like I had good anticipation,
- 11:15Speaker 1: So I'll be on that right block. And I mean
- 11:18Speaker 1: I'm not a Scout report yet, like a bottom of
- 11:20Speaker 1: Scout reporting, so no one really knows what I do.
- 11:22Speaker 1: So yeah, that was my go to shot, like I'm
- 11:24Speaker 1: just gonna catch it, just jump and turn and shoot
- 11:26Speaker 1: off the glass.
- 11:26Speaker 4: And that's his shot.
- 11:30Speaker 9: That was his shot for rebody to say, hell, no,
- 11:32Speaker 9: it's definitely gonna be here.
- 11:43Speaker 1: I still jokeer Bro to this day, teaching McConnell, like,
- 11:45Speaker 1: I showed a love of TJ.
- 11:46Speaker 4: Bro. We came in the same draft the TJ.
- 11:49Speaker 3: Now.
- 11:50Speaker 1: Yeah, but I remember Bro. I think he was a
- 11:52Speaker 1: Philly At the time we was playing him. He was
- 11:55Speaker 1: warming enough to.
- 11:55Speaker 4: Look down and say, Bro, I don't like that. I
- 12:00Speaker 4: hate him. I was like, what what he doing? Like what?
- 12:02Speaker 5: And to this day, Bro, I'll be I'll be fucking
- 12:04Speaker 5: with TJ. Bro because I'll be trying to get his
- 12:06Speaker 5: head a little bit and he brings it up that
- 12:08Speaker 5: show like all the time, Bro, why does he like me?
- 12:11Speaker 4: I'm I'm a fan. Really, I think he cold.
- 12:15Speaker 5: Now I'll be like, damn, I watched him coming because
- 12:18Speaker 5: we played in Philly.
- 12:19Speaker 4: He's to come in, you know, do what he do? Now.
- 12:21Speaker 4: I used to be like how the funk is he
- 12:22Speaker 4: in the NBA?

- 12:25Speaker 5: now seeing him grow as the players, like, nah, he
- 12:28Speaker 5: deserves fifteen million a year in the NBA. Like so,

- 13:36Speaker 5: taking them something set No, I ain't, I ain't, ain't.
- 13:38Speaker 5: I ain't listening. I wasn't trying to ruin, you know,
- 13:41Speaker 5: trying to make sure you get the bag right.
- 13:44Speaker 4: For sure.
- 13:44Speaker 2: We got you know, the Naptown. You gotta get the Trimmors.
- 13:47Speaker 2: You gotta get the sunset a couple of places. I
- 13:50Speaker 2: was too young for this, get trimmers.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Ready for tremors ship, I wasn't ready for someone just
- 14:04Speaker 1: talking about sunset the other day. I don't talk about
- 14:07Speaker 1: have you been in there? I have never set footing.
- 14:09Speaker 1: I go to lungs all the time. I knew what
- 14:12Speaker 1: people was talking about.
- 14:13Speaker 4: You ain't missing nothing that talking about your gang. Go there,
- 14:18Speaker 4: we're gonna get information.
- 14:19Speaker 5: You got you gotta go to sun Sat, saying when
- 14:21Speaker 5: they open, that's a great night man, whatever.
- 14:28Speaker 2: The sun set, not that couple a little extra not
- 14:37Speaker 2: but listen, man, all my paces ship, we went crazy
- 14:40Speaker 2: this year. Everybody was hating. It didn't matter. We did
- 14:42Speaker 2: what then we were supposed to do. How was it
- 14:44Speaker 2: to have a season like we had this year? You
- 14:45Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. Last couple years, Little Rocky, a
- 14:47Speaker 2: couple of changes, we got Toye's going crazy. You were
- 14:50Speaker 2: crazy this year. I think I don't know, I won't
- 14:53Speaker 2: be too political, but I don't go no more. I
- 14:55Speaker 2: think that one of the best things that happened for
- 14:56Speaker 2: you in our situation is that we ended up making
- 14:59Speaker 2: a decision in between us and Bonus. And the one
- 15:01Speaker 2: thing as a Pizer fan I hate it was that
- 15:03Speaker 2: I felt like y'all were so talented, but them having
- 15:05Speaker 2: y'all together for so long kind of hinter both of
- 15:07Speaker 2: y'all's game.
- 15:08Speaker 4: And I'm happy that, you know what I'm saying.
- 15:09Speaker 2: We got a chance to really show how good you
- 15:11Speaker 2: were with the system, and then we got a point
- 15:12Speaker 2: guard to actually like t the way ty Reeves played
- 15:15Speaker 2: very similar distribute the ball, get people, they spots.
- 15:18Speaker 4: I was so happy the success we had last year
- 15:20Speaker 4: with this team.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Man, how was it? You know what I'm saying? Bounce
- 15:22Speaker 2: back like that? Oh it was amazing.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Bro, It's I mean, being here for ten years, I
- 15:25Speaker 1: feel like you feel like you can say like I've
- 15:27Speaker 1: seen it all, but I really truly feel like I've
- 15:29Speaker 1: just seen everything and more. But I came in playing
- 15:32Speaker 1: a five, and I knew I had ability to stretch
- 15:34Speaker 1: the floor. And I remember all season but you remember Bano, Bro, Bro,
- 15:39Speaker 1: that's my dog for really. We worked out all summer
- 15:41Speaker 1: in the post and then even had Kevin mckel come
- 15:43Speaker 1: in and we worked out a couple of times now
- 15:45Speaker 1: and I get the training camp and was like, hey,
- 15:47Speaker 1: great work the summer.
- 15:48Speaker 4: We're gonna put you out the four.
- 15:50Speaker 1: So I had never really like I knew I can shoot,
- 15:54Speaker 1: but I Bro, I never really just like played basketball
- 15:56Speaker 1: then in high school.
- 15:56Speaker 4: I don't how to cut.
- 15:57Speaker 1: I didn't know when to time up, like spacing like
- 16:00Speaker 1: like even this five man like five man out.
- 16:02Speaker 4: I know, I play five outs.
- 16:03Speaker 1: So I'm literally sitting here guessing the entire time for
- 16:05Speaker 1: at least half a season. And then you know, the
- 16:08Speaker 1: two three season, I played with Domos like I wasn't
- 16:09Speaker 1: even shooting as well as I positive could because I
- 16:12Speaker 1: knew I was on to shoot the ball like five
- 16:13Speaker 1: six times a game, and I was pissed, Like I
- 16:16Speaker 1: think everybody around me like knew that. So if the
- 16:18Speaker 1: ball toaped my hands, like fuck it, it's going up,
- 16:20Speaker 1: I'm not looking like it's just going up, so that
- 16:22Speaker 1: I'm not shooting my best. I'm not shooting confident, and honestly,
- 16:25Speaker 1: I hate it showing off for work, bro, Like I
- 16:26Speaker 1: just it felt like a job, like I was just
- 16:28Speaker 1: I wasn't in the best space mentally. But then, bro,
- 16:32Speaker 1: all I asked for was I needed a guard to
- 16:33Speaker 1: give me the ball and I want to play the five,
- 16:35Speaker 1: and the places came through and I was able just
- 16:37Speaker 1: to put my full talents on display Man. And yeah,
- 16:41Speaker 1: this season was special because you know the end season
- 16:45Speaker 1: tournament here like that was what got some eyes already
- 16:48Speaker 1: just at that visibility. But being able to take that
- 16:50Speaker 1: all season long and just up the antie and that
- 16:53Speaker 1: just like crushed everybody expectations and like beating your favorite
- 16:55Speaker 1: team like that shit felt good, bro, for real, Just
- 16:58Speaker 1: like this to love you guy and yeah, man, the playoffs,
- 17:01Speaker 1: Like I was so used to just going home, you
- 17:04Speaker 1: know what I mean, four or five months and the
- 17:06Speaker 1: time off. But it was a different are around the city, Bro,
- 17:09Speaker 1: different energy like it was locked in.
- 17:10Speaker 4: Bro, it was a vibe, it.
- 17:12Speaker 3: Was cray, it was we was hating.
- 17:17Speaker 4: Yeah, I had no walk.
- 17:18Speaker 7: We was true.
- 17:21Speaker 4: I walk.
- 17:23Speaker 3: No I have BOSJ DJ stood down on yall.
- 17:30Speaker 4: For him. What's my favorite card for it?
- 17:31Speaker 2: The motherfuckers don't watch us play ever, Bro, They watched
- 17:35Speaker 2: us play and we did our thing this year.
- 17:36Speaker 4: Love that for us. I did have Milwaukee though, I
- 17:39Speaker 4: want to chip five times. That bitch was musty. Oh
- 17:46Speaker 4: my god.

- 18:16Speaker 5: good that series of what we went by the way
- 18:18Speaker 5: shout some league basically we heard you. I want to
- 18:21Speaker 5: know like, how was it in that game where Chris
- 18:23Speaker 5: Milton hit that shot off the backboard, Like what was
- 18:25Speaker 5: y'all thinking, Like a ship that's about.
- 18:28Speaker 4: Trust this nigga is a second coming, Like he wasn't missing, bro.
- 18:32Speaker 5: It was the craziest ship because like we're like that
- 18:35Speaker 5: nigga injured, bro, Like you know he he's over there
- 18:38Speaker 5: like hobbling.
- 18:38Speaker 4: Bro. He just got to his spots and was like

- 18:41Speaker 1: Some to wasn't talking no ship like just literally just
- 18:44Speaker 1: got into his bad It was masterful, bro. Honestly, like
- 18:48Speaker 1: just like watching him afar, like like at the time
- 18:51Speaker 1: you pissed, but then you go back and it's like, damn,
- 18:53Speaker 1: this just just a fishing bro. So it was so bro,
- 18:56Speaker 1: like we just in't we were fighting, fighting fighting. He
- 18:58Speaker 1: hit that shot as almost like a gut punch. Bro's
- 18:59Speaker 1: like you gotta go to overtime. But yeah, man ship
- 19:02Speaker 1: at the end of the day with its cool. Yeah,
- 19:04Speaker 1: the hell of a hell of a run.
- 19:06Speaker 4: Uh. That was that Knick series. Like we always make
- 19:10Speaker 4: fun of me and being we like, oh they beat
- 19:12Speaker 4: everybody that was hurt. Yeah, but that's that's how I
- 19:17Speaker 4: want a championship. Everybody got hurt for sure, big top.
- 19:20Speaker 5: Yeah, so it happens like that, But what was that
- 19:23Speaker 5: feeling like playing in the garden like happened to win
- 19:26Speaker 5: in New York? It was special for me, man, because
- 19:28Speaker 5: you know my dad, he's from New York, Okay, shots box,
- 19:31Speaker 5: he's from Queens, and he had aspirations of you know,
- 19:33Speaker 5: playing and love obviously, but uh, you know, God had
- 19:35Speaker 5: different plans and you know, for him to be able
- 19:37Speaker 5: to be there and wait and sit with like all
- 19:39Speaker 5: his childhood friends and that's fire, same same ship.
- 19:42Speaker 4: He was on the whole.
- 19:43Speaker 1: I told you so, Like I told you, my sons
- 19:44Speaker 1: were like, you know, just happy for him, bro, really
- 19:48Speaker 1: popping ship in the city, so that it was a
- 19:50Speaker 1: good moment.
- 19:51Speaker 4: Man.
- 19:51Speaker 1: I just you know, like you said, injuries are not
- 19:54Speaker 1: but that's what the playoffs is about. It's just that's
- 19:56Speaker 1: part of it, taking care of yourself. And yeah, we
- 19:58Speaker 1: got it done.
- 19:59Speaker 2: And listen, I told him I didn't give a funk
- 20:01Speaker 2: about them injuries. We had years of our best one
- 20:04Speaker 2: or two player was hurt for at least four to
- 20:06Speaker 2: five years.
- 20:07Speaker 4: It, Bro, I don't want to hear no excuses whatever.
- 20:10Speaker 3: Oh, I just wanted to ask though, how is it
- 20:13Speaker 3: playing with Pascal Man kind of teammates. He Man, that
- 20:16Speaker 3: was a great addition for y'all.
- 20:17Speaker 1: For real, Bro, he just he just keep out his business, Bro,
- 20:20Speaker 1: And that's why I respect him like another extra ship.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Like he get in, he get his work, and he
- 20:25Speaker 1: go home.
- 20:25Speaker 4: Man.
- 20:25Speaker 1: That's what I feel like in Indianapolis. It's like what
- 20:27Speaker 1: you like. He embodies all that and his skill sets
- 20:31Speaker 1: is crazy. Bro, face up game, he get downhill, versat
- 20:34Speaker 1: defender like he was like the missing piece more star power, bro,
- 20:40Speaker 1: because like that's all it is in this league too.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Bro's that the eyes and the attraction is star power
- 20:44Speaker 1: like side of things. And you know, now we feel
- 20:47Speaker 1: like we you know, we missed out a lot of
- 20:49Speaker 1: free agents a lot of times.
- 20:50Speaker 4: And that was a big gift for us. Yeah for sure.
- 20:52Speaker 2: I mean speaking free agents as downloaded back up. You
- 20:55Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. Everybody come back to the East.
- 20:57Speaker 2: We got a little bit more competition. But I'm missige
- 20:59Speaker 2: Frus next year because I feel like our key additions
- 21:01Speaker 2: are people we didn't get to play much or it
- 21:02Speaker 2: was hurt last year.
- 21:03Speaker 4: We got Benny did coming back.
- 21:04Speaker 2: We all get right to it and I'm very excited
- 21:06Speaker 2: to see jars Walker getting in this next year and
- 21:08Speaker 2: very excited to see jars Man.
- 21:09Speaker 4: How's he been in practice? Man?
- 21:11Speaker 1: He a dog bro jareds He's the He's one to
- 21:13Speaker 1: do and can do everything like real like Draymond type
- 21:15Speaker 1: of career, like kind of get guys open. I mean,
- 21:17Speaker 1: if he really really needs to get a bucket, he
- 21:19Speaker 1: can like face off Iso. But Jared's got a lot
- 21:21Speaker 1: of He's got vision and that's what I feel like
- 21:23Speaker 1: people haven't been able to see him yet. Same thing
- 21:26Speaker 1: versus defender as well. But he just needs his opportunity.
- 21:28Speaker 1: It's tough when you come in this league and you
- 21:30Speaker 1: got like you're playing behind all stars, playing behind facts,
- 21:32Speaker 1: you know, season vetsing. But it has to wait his turn,
- 21:35Speaker 1: like it's a it's kind of unfortunate. But you know,
- 21:37Speaker 1: we talked to him all the time. We try to
- 21:39Speaker 1: keep his confidence going. But you know how it is
- 21:41Speaker 1: into this ship like it's just a you know, he's
- 21:44Speaker 1: got to keep putting your time, that's all this is.
- 21:45Speaker 1: You know he's gonna go out here to Knight's on
- 21:47Speaker 1: the bus ass already know he is, you know, to
- 21:49Speaker 1: leave the team.
- 21:51Speaker 4: I gotta ask you on some paces.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Shit, what was the better atmosphere or it was a
- 21:55Speaker 2: crazy game that that Milwaukee gamble the Game three or
- 21:58Speaker 2: Game seven in the Garden.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I mean it's I'll say it was louder in Indie,
- 22:06Speaker 1: but the atmosphere was. I think it was a little
- 22:08Speaker 1: bit dope in New York just because of what it
- 22:10Speaker 1: was like you in the Mecca, Bro, Yeah, it's a
- 22:11Speaker 1: Game seven. Every single celebrity you can think of it
- 22:14Speaker 1: as their court side, like everybody talking ship like It's
- 22:16Speaker 1: just it was just that environment. Yeah, that's what you
- 22:19Speaker 1: dream of. Yeah, exactly. So I can't I can't take
- 22:22Speaker 1: nothing away from that. But I will say, like now,
- 22:24Speaker 1: this year was like the loudest I've heard it, Like
- 22:25Speaker 1: even the n season tournament games, like the color courts, and.
- 22:28Speaker 5: They showed up for them. Everybody was coming out for
- 22:30Speaker 5: them games. I ain't gonna lie. You played with some
- 22:33Speaker 5: great guards. Ty Reese is a special player. Yeah, what
- 22:37Speaker 5: is it like playing with him?
- 22:38Speaker 4: Man?
- 22:38Speaker 5: His vision, the way you play looks like he's having
- 22:40Speaker 5: so much fun. Look, your team is having so much fun.
- 22:42Speaker 5: I see like y'all starting to like you and him
- 22:45Speaker 5: are the leaders of the team, and you can see
- 22:46Speaker 5: that it's starting to like run through the whole team,
- 22:48Speaker 5: like you just like you're playing with a lot of joy.
- 22:50Speaker 4: What's like playing with him? Yeah? Bro, he's got infectious spirit.
- 22:53Speaker 1: Like I think he's someone who he really he plays
- 22:56Speaker 1: better and he's in a better state when he knows
- 22:58Speaker 1: he get everybody else. Yeah, you know, he gonna get
- 23:00Speaker 1: to his side, step Hen, get down the heal if
- 23:01Speaker 1: he needs to. But he really wants to pass the ball,
- 23:03Speaker 1: get people going. Just takes the attention off him. So
- 23:05Speaker 1: I've always played with like Scort Purs, Scort first Cars.
- 23:08Speaker 1: You know, I came in, I was with UH with
- 23:10Speaker 1: George Hill. Yeah, and he's a he's kind of assistant player,
- 23:13Speaker 1: but he really wanted to get to it he could.
- 23:14Speaker 4: And then I had you and I had.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Malcolm Darren Collinson, Malcolm Brock like yeah, DC killer too, BOYD.
- 23:21Speaker 1: See it was all like Scort First Cards, but tyres
- 23:23Speaker 1: like he really really want to get people involved, and
- 23:26Speaker 1: you can do you feel that, you know what I mean?
- 23:27Speaker 1: And when it's time to let him do his thing,
- 23:29Speaker 1: it's like okay, all I bet like you know you
- 23:31Speaker 1: got it? Yeah, bro, he just got a he got
- 23:33Speaker 1: one of them personalities that it's just easy to be around,
- 23:35Speaker 1: like in the locker room morale, love and like that.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Yeah, it's dope. I love seeing what he was saying.
- 23:40Speaker 2: That was like, why did they pick him? I'm just like,
- 23:41Speaker 2: what do you mean? They picked the person who averaged
- 23:43Speaker 2: the most assistant the NBA. They playing with the team,
- 23:44Speaker 2: but somebode who needs to distribute the ball. That's why
- 23:46Speaker 2: I said, people don't watch us, but it's cool.
- 23:48Speaker 4: That's what he's gonna get, real to it.
- 23:49Speaker 5: I like them hard too. Oh yeah, you're a dog,
- 23:54Speaker 5: but I like you first. But I like you because ship.
- 24:01Speaker 5: It was his time to shot. He said, fuck it,
- 24:03Speaker 5: I'm going for the port guy.
- 24:05Speaker 4: I like that.
- 24:08Speaker 5: The only gonna have. It's gonna be tough to keep him. Yeah,
- 24:11Speaker 5: he's gonna get some money. Man, it's gonna be tough.
- 24:14Speaker 5: I know who was getting some money next year too.
- 24:17Speaker 5: Oh yeah, right, bring that truck loading ups.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Gonna put my work in do I gotta do? And
- 24:25Speaker 1: then uh yeah, let the forward John take porter.
- 24:28Speaker 4: But if you've been no miles this year to take
- 24:29Speaker 4: the over baby contract year man?
- 24:32Speaker 5: And I always I wanted to ask you because you're
- 24:35Speaker 5: one of the best defenders in the league. Like, how
- 24:38Speaker 5: does it feel like when you see like no shape
- 24:40Speaker 5: the rudio bearing guys like that, but they get Defensive
- 24:43Speaker 5: Player of the Year three or four times.
- 24:45Speaker 4: It's like you feel away. It used to really fuck me, bro.
- 24:49Speaker 1: I used to really fucking me, like my first couple
- 24:53Speaker 1: of years, because it's everybody in your ear. You feel like, Bro,
- 24:55Speaker 1: Like I think my third season, like I out blocked
- 24:57Speaker 1: in the tower.
- 24:59Speaker 4: I had more blocks Coleete mccavalery's team, that's right.
- 25:02Speaker 1: And what they always told me was like, oh, well
- 25:04Speaker 1: you don't rebound, And I was like, all right, you know,
- 25:06Speaker 1: I'll take that on the chin.
- 25:07Speaker 4: Cool.
- 25:08Speaker 1: But I feel like defense is more than just defensive rebounder.
- 25:11Speaker 1: Like I'm leading at the time. You know, you know
- 25:13Speaker 1: dB was, but at the time I'm leading like a
- 25:15Speaker 1: like a number two defense in the league.
- 25:17Speaker 4: And you know where we have a decent.
- 25:18Speaker 1: Record, and but bro, we don't play on TV, like
- 25:21Speaker 1: you said, we didn't get very far in the playoffs,
- 25:24Speaker 1: so no exposure. So it's like they have to justify
- 25:26Speaker 1: who they get this award to. And it became like
- 25:29Speaker 1: a popularity contest. And that's when I kind of bowed out. Bro,
- 25:32Speaker 1: I'd rather get respect from my peers than you know,
- 25:37Speaker 1: this this trophy, you know what I mean. Like, of
- 25:39Speaker 1: course I still would want to, like you know, push
- 25:40Speaker 1: for that grind flan in the future, but it took
- 25:43Speaker 1: the sting out of before me when I realized, you know,
- 25:45Speaker 1: it's a business, bro, Like you know what I mean,
- 25:46Speaker 1: Like you know people are gonna like to dive into
- 25:49Speaker 1: that and say what they need to say, but it's
- 25:50Speaker 1: just real, bro, Like whoever has the most eyes, whoever
- 25:53Speaker 1: has the best defensive metrics and shit like that.
- 25:55Speaker 3: Like we just talked about the metrics too. I don't
- 25:58Speaker 3: even think it defensive play ever won. I mean so
- 26:00Speaker 3: far as a big with our average and at least
- 26:02Speaker 3: tea in a game rebound.
- 26:05Speaker 2: But the craziest shit about Rudy is no saying to Rudy,
- 26:07Speaker 2: you're defense play of the year, but now I call
- 26:09Speaker 2: you liabilities in the playoffs, so like, make it makes
- 26:11Speaker 2: sense you can't be the best player of the year
- 26:13Speaker 2: and you're Christmas in the switch and is like a
- 26:15Speaker 2: We're gonna live with it like that. It's like you said,
- 26:17Speaker 2: it's a lot to play into that more than just
- 26:19Speaker 2: what it is happening on the course.
- 26:20Speaker 1: So the numbers games gets tough, brother, and you are,
- 26:22Speaker 1: like I said, if you really a hoop head and
- 26:24Speaker 1: you and you ended this like you know, who's a
- 26:26Speaker 1: good defender, you know, like who you're not going at
- 26:29Speaker 1: like you know just in the back of your head,
- 26:30Speaker 1: like when you plan a ship. But if they get
- 26:33Speaker 1: this award to somebody, and in the playoffs, you can
- 26:36Speaker 1: expose that, like you can talk about and if he
- 26:39Speaker 1: may be great at this but.
- 26:40Speaker 4: Not so great at this, and yeah we're going at
- 26:42Speaker 4: that show. You know.
- 26:43Speaker 1: That's what when guys like like Marcus Smart wins, it's
- 26:46Speaker 1: like I tell my capsh like that because he's really
- 26:48Speaker 1: a dog and he switched one through four really guard everybody.
- 26:53Speaker 1: And yeah, but in Rudy's case, like, bro, like I
- 26:55Speaker 1: give respect to him because like when you're playing us
- 26:58Speaker 1: on the playoffs, you know you're not going down here,
- 27:00Speaker 1: no in fact, but in the switch situations, yeah, everybody
- 27:03Speaker 1: brings him out and it exposes him and whatnot, so
- 27:05Speaker 1: he dow his job.
- 27:06Speaker 4: But it's just it's an overall war for sure.
- 27:09Speaker 2: And even like Withdrew, like, bro, that's somebody who should
- 27:12Speaker 2: have a couple on the shelf.
- 27:13Speaker 4: Bro, Yeah, for sure, who should have a couple of
- 27:15Speaker 4: everybody in this league knows. Yeah, that's a given. Bro.
- 27:18Speaker 3: Was that the first thing you was good at though
- 27:20Speaker 3: growing up when you start hooping was blocking shots?
- 27:22Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 27:22Speaker 1: Bro, that was really it was only the only thing.
- 27:24Speaker 1: Like when I was a kid, like I wasn't really
- 27:26Speaker 1: coordinated like that. I just started I started to get
- 27:29Speaker 1: more of a jumper in middle school when my dad
- 27:30Speaker 1: saw it, like at a young age and was like.
- 27:32Speaker 4: No, we could do something with this. Uh man.
- 27:35Speaker 1: I mean I give love to him, bro, because like
- 27:37Speaker 1: I really wasn't committed to basketball like that, but I
- 27:38Speaker 1: love baseball.
- 27:39Speaker 4: Baseball was like my first love. Ain't no way been playing.
- 27:43Speaker 1: I was outside, but you were snagging My strike zone
- 27:47Speaker 1: was too big and the white boy start throwing that heat.
- 27:49Speaker 4: Bro, Like yeah it's not Christians.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Another way, But but nah, Bro, I started taking it
- 27:57Speaker 1: more serious, like really after I broke my ankle like
- 28:00Speaker 1: in high school, and yeah, started to It starts hard
- 28:03Speaker 1: to pan out for me, but no, Bro, just like
- 28:05Speaker 1: being multifaceted, like just everything I do. Basketball is obviously
- 28:09Speaker 1: like my professional what I'm good at, but it's just
- 28:10Speaker 1: opened doors for me and don't posific avenues.
- 28:12Speaker 4: That's what I preach it.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Like, oh, like I guess when the young guys coming in,
- 28:15Speaker 1: it's like, don't make this the only thing you're good at, bro,
- 28:17Speaker 1: It's just a key at the end of the day,
- 28:18Speaker 1: just unlock like hell of doors for you.
- 28:21Speaker 2: And they be trying to bosh you in a lot
- 28:22Speaker 2: And I like it now that like everybody has an
- 28:24Speaker 2: avenue to show their personality with the light.
- 28:26Speaker 4: It don't matter what you fuck with what you do.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Like with you, I know you go crazy with the
- 28:29Speaker 2: legos you can't like, but it's just like why the
- 28:31Speaker 2: funk I mad at me what I like to do?
- 28:32Speaker 2: I saw the work like, But I mean that's people
- 28:35Speaker 2: fear what they don't know, or people like feel that
- 28:37Speaker 2: they don't understand, you know what I mean.
- 28:38Speaker 1: So it's easy to sit there like, oh lengo nerd.
- 28:41Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, bro, now you
- 28:44Speaker 1: just you can't. You can't do this. It's too intricate
- 28:46Speaker 1: for you, you know what I mean. I can't do
- 28:48Speaker 1: that much. Yeah, And the fact that you can't do it,
- 28:52Speaker 1: and it's fun to like kind of laugh and joke
- 28:54Speaker 1: because it's other people that it's fall.
- 28:56Speaker 4: Like, oh yeah, you know what I mean.
- 28:57Speaker 1: But that's why I do it too, bro, Like I
- 28:59Speaker 1: really try to stay take the sting out that word.
- 29:01Speaker 4: Bro. You hear the word nerd.
- 29:02Speaker 1: It's such a negative connotation towards it, but man, you
- 29:04Speaker 1: just looked it up. It's just someone that's passionate about something.
- 29:06Speaker 4: At the end of the day. His bas Plenty of
- 29:08Speaker 4: basketball nerds.
- 29:08Speaker 1: Out there, especially, I just try to I tried to
- 29:12Speaker 1: put it on for like those guys like those were
- 29:13Speaker 1: like my friends in school or whatnot, you know what
- 29:14Speaker 1: I mean. They didn't have the abilities that I had
- 29:17Speaker 1: or even the social skills that you know that we had,
- 29:18Speaker 1: So I just tried to put on for them.
- 29:20Speaker 4: Man, for sure.
- 29:21Speaker 2: Listen, you got a lot of crazy highlights. What's some
- 29:23Speaker 2: of your favorite highlights. It's my favorite highlights. You caught
- 29:27Speaker 2: a lot of bodies. I can plenty them that ship.
- 29:30Speaker 9: Uh.
- 29:31Speaker 1: I think one of my one of my favorite highlights
- 29:33Speaker 1: I ever had was we were playing Boston and UH
- 29:35Speaker 1: in the UH in the first round, like my fourth
- 29:37Speaker 1: year maybe, and I got Gordon Hayward like something crazy
- 29:40Speaker 1: like I pump fake, I went downhill was able to
- 29:42Speaker 1: them off too. And like that kind of put me
- 29:44Speaker 1: on the map a little bit more too. It's just like, well,
- 29:47Speaker 1: it's like, oh ship, Like I ain't know he had that,
- 29:49Speaker 1: you know, and that was a good one. I Gotst
- 29:52Speaker 1: Thompson my second year in the playoffs t T. I
- 29:55Speaker 1: was off a rebound or whether I came up and
- 29:57Speaker 1: just he was talking a ship. So I got love
- 29:59Speaker 1: to he was just talking that shit that series and
- 30:02Speaker 1: that just like felt good. You remember that series though,
- 30:04Speaker 1: of coorse so do Bro.
- 30:06Speaker 5: When we was up thirty Broyes at the bro we
- 30:10Speaker 5: was hyping hand going to the locker room. Bro Bron
- 30:14Speaker 5: told us he walked out at half court. Remember I
- 30:17Speaker 5: was walking in, he said, were good y'all. I looked
- 30:19Speaker 5: like fucking that shit started going down like they're about
- 30:23Speaker 5: to be third quarter. We don we were fifteen and
- 30:26Speaker 5: the third I'm like, were about to lose, y'all?
- 30:28Speaker 4: We losing it? What happened for real though, Bro? They
- 30:32Speaker 4: were just better than us.
- 30:33Speaker 3: Brother, I mean, but what males and we heard his son. Look,
- 30:36Speaker 3: can I hear your side, Bro, because it may be
- 30:38Speaker 3: different like what you think?
- 30:40Speaker 4: I think that's just bro.
- 30:41Speaker 1: Second year, like we had all the tools, but we
- 30:45Speaker 1: didn't have the chemistry, bro, for sure.
- 30:46Speaker 4: Let's just be let's be real.
- 30:47Speaker 5: Yeah, we we had so much talent on that roster,
- 30:50Speaker 5: but like they doesn't really fuck with each other.
- 30:52Speaker 4: Bro.
- 30:53Speaker 5: It just was what it was. And you can tell
- 30:55Speaker 5: and you can always tell, like on the court.
- 30:57Speaker 1: And I think that was like a big thing for
- 31:00Speaker 1: the front office even like now it's like we want
- 31:02Speaker 1: to bring in guys that we know are gonna mesh
- 31:04Speaker 1: you know what I mean. We got to go to
- 31:06Speaker 1: the side, like there's just that's what made us so
- 31:08Speaker 1: good this year. Like there was just no ego, you know,
- 31:10Speaker 1: well this hoop, But at that time, it was just
- 31:12Speaker 1: a lot of ego and a lot of you know,
- 31:13Speaker 1: who's the man this? And it was tough, bro. So
- 31:17Speaker 1: I think when we got into the playoffs, we didn't
- 31:19Speaker 1: really have no flow, bro, like zero, We were just
- 31:22Speaker 1: relying on talent at the end of the day.
- 31:24Speaker 4: And you know, there in the playoffs that should don't work.
- 31:26Speaker 1: And Cleveland was a better team bro that they had
- 31:29Speaker 1: all their role players, Like shit, Kyrie was still there.
- 31:31Speaker 1: She woun't even have Kyle Korver, like they had plenty
- 31:33Speaker 1: of guys. Richard Jefferson team j R. Smith like guys
- 31:36Speaker 1: that knew what they do the role, whereas we were
- 31:39Speaker 1: trying to like force all role for sure. Yeah so bad.
- 31:43Speaker 1: I thought I finally was gonna be broad. I was
- 31:45Speaker 1: hyping that was over with. Yeah, that's crazy. How much
- 31:50Speaker 1: chemistry really matters outside of the business. If you look
- 31:52Speaker 1: at the team, how many people was either in that
- 31:55Speaker 1: contract here or near a contract year, and it's just like, yeah,
- 31:58Speaker 1: it gotta be a team, but I gotta get paid.
- 32:00Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't got to get these stats up. That
- 32:02Speaker 5: was that was my contract year.
- 32:03Speaker 4: I remember he got a thing bro Like Bro. I
- 32:08Speaker 4: remember the ship.
- 32:09Speaker 5: Anytime he would get scored on, you know, Bro, we're
- 32:11Speaker 5: breaking off like he's going like he's just fucking going,
- 32:14Speaker 5: Nigga the pleasure everything flopping ship.
- 32:18Speaker 4: Bro, And we all know that. I was like.
- 32:22Speaker 7: Paper taped to that boy here.
- 32:24Speaker 5: That's just my competitive Like somebody scoring me, I just
- 32:27Speaker 5: couldn't like, I'm like ya, I gotta get them back.
- 32:30Speaker 4: That was just me. We saw last week in the
- 32:31Speaker 4: big through that's me, like you scoring, I.
- 32:34Speaker 5: Need the ball back, like one on one, come on,
- 32:36Speaker 5: I need the ball back. But I grew out of
- 32:38Speaker 5: that man when I retired. He was part of the
- 32:42Speaker 5: chemistry up I was. I was because I'm the point guard,
- 32:50Speaker 5: so I got to bring everybody together. I didn't do
- 32:51Speaker 5: a good job of that, Like I always tell y'all,
- 32:53Speaker 5: I should have been way better at that. Like I
- 32:55Speaker 5: talked to Miles, I talked to that CJ but everybody glean.
- 32:58Speaker 5: But other than that, I ain't really talking nobody like
- 33:01Speaker 5: PG and like uh, I ain't really talk to him
- 33:05Speaker 5: like that. And they was two of the guys who
- 33:07Speaker 5: had the ball too. So it was just a bad
- 33:09Speaker 5: blend at that time for sure.
- 33:11Speaker 4: Man.
- 33:11Speaker 2: But listen, we're back on the map, patients going crazy.
- 33:13Speaker 2: I don't go fuck about nobody else's free agent pickups.
- 33:16Speaker 2: We're still in the East going crazy. They still got
- 33:19Speaker 2: to come to games and see what's up with it.
- 33:21Speaker 2: I can't wait for us to go crazy getting this season.
- 33:23Speaker 4: Man, you'll be here. What's up?
- 33:25Speaker 2: I'm talking ship today with Easter spungell do well soon Bucks.
- 33:31Speaker 4: Who else we build it? We experienced Miles.
- 33:36Speaker 3: Listen, it ain't even just because you're here, bro, you
- 33:40Speaker 3: twenty eight. Bro, I've been hating on the patas even
- 33:44Speaker 3: before you were starting. You wouldn't even think Pop is
- 33:49Speaker 3: still doing his stuff.
- 33:53Speaker 4: You know it's not.
- 33:54Speaker 3: But y'all a better team though, I'll be giving DJ
- 33:57Speaker 3: Hill all the time. You know what I'm saying. But
- 33:59Speaker 3: now do y'all are a good team for sure?
- 34:02Speaker 1: Bro, No one lost and had no playoff experience, and
- 34:04Speaker 1: this is perfect for you know everybody's now you just build.
- 34:07Speaker 4: You have momentum for sure.
- 34:09Speaker 5: But I'm being honest. I still got Boston ship the champ.
- 34:12Speaker 5: Respect Milwaukee. I'm a die hard Milwaukee. I don't know why.
- 34:17Speaker 5: But Philly, Bro, my boy dang coming back healthy, y'all.
- 34:23Speaker 5: You and I got y'all over Philly. I't even I
- 34:26Speaker 5: don't like Philly.
- 34:27Speaker 4: Oh. I like.
- 34:28Speaker 5: I like the players that come back in there Bro
- 34:31Speaker 5: pg code, but I just don't have.
- 34:33Speaker 7: To tap into his mind star Space Jam.
- 34:36Speaker 4: But I just don't like they always. I don't know,
- 34:39Speaker 4: I don't like it. Team.
- 34:41Speaker 5: I need to see chemistry work. I got to see
- 34:42Speaker 5: it happen. I need to see it happened. I got
- 34:44Speaker 5: ya because you'll do got the perfect chemistry. Pascal gonna
- 34:46Speaker 5: have a full year with y'all. Yeah, I like that,
- 34:49Speaker 5: and you already got that experience.
- 34:51Speaker 7: I like that.
- 34:52Speaker 5: But in the Knicks. I'm excited to see y'all in
- 34:54Speaker 5: the Knick, y'all. That's my four right there.
- 34:56Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. They got they got they got my loader.

- 35:00Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 35:01Speaker 4: And then my Hawks, Oh jesus, we didn't rebuild.
- 35:05Speaker 7: Think his house got a chance against y'all.
- 35:07Speaker 1: Man rebuild defense, bro, That's that's the biggest thing that
- 35:11Speaker 1: the Hawks. They talented offensively, We rebuilding.
- 35:16Speaker 5: We got number one pick for Yeah, we got number
- 35:22Speaker 5: one Petrayer Man, get about it, letter man. I'm surprised
- 35:26Speaker 5: they traded up Desohnte.
- 35:28Speaker 4: I really was.
- 35:28Speaker 1: I know he probably has more value probably, Yeah, thought
- 35:31Speaker 1: I didn't know what he was talking about. They talk
- 35:33Speaker 1: about him going to San Antonio or trade whatever. BacT
- 35:35Speaker 1: to Santonio has been crazy.
- 35:38Speaker 4: Yeah. Nah, they got Chris Paul, so that is definitely not.
- 35:42Speaker 3: I gotta real quick. I know we're joking and ship,
- 35:44Speaker 3: but do you think y'all are missing a piece? Like
- 35:47Speaker 3: what do you think that y'all can bring, not necessarily
- 35:50Speaker 3: a player, but like something that somebody can add to
- 35:53Speaker 3: help y'all get over that hump that y'all are right now.
- 35:58Speaker 1: I think when we got to be better rebounds, Bro,
- 36:00Speaker 1: we're the work. We're still kind of small, Okay. We
- 36:03Speaker 1: just got wise Men, so that that helps a bit,
- 36:05Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He's like seven to one,
- 36:06Speaker 1: but we were like a big team. I mean outside
- 36:08Speaker 1: of me. Isaiah Jackson was six nine, Jayalen Smith at
- 36:12Speaker 1: the time with six six, so I mean, just to
- 36:16Speaker 1: have a more front corn presence and put off the
- 36:18Speaker 1: bench and uh just vets Bro. I mean, I'm like,
- 36:22Speaker 1: me and TJ were probably the oldest suits on the
- 36:23Speaker 1: team now outside of you know JJ when when he
- 36:26Speaker 1: was signed, but J in the vets Bro.

- 36:34Speaker 2: him and the worst place and places part for them.
