So then nobody replied.
Then Mike woke up and was like,

Nobody said that.
So I was like,
I'm the one who said,

Mike sent me one.
Like I was the one out of pocket.
Like everybody confirmed,
but you.
Now you put it in.
When he don't confirm, I'm going to go on my day.
He started talking about it.
That's crazy.
What do you mean?
What am I supposed to do?
He started talking about it.
He started talking about shoving in Vegas.
I'm like, all right, we just beat up a shove in Vegas.
You did just get right back.
Yeah.
My crazy thing is, bro, I wasn't paying no attention to it.
That's what happened to me.
When I seen it this morning, I was like, wait, he posted a meme right after that. I see that. I'm like, sho is bro I wasn't paying no attention to it That's what happened to me When I seen it this morning I was like wait
He posted to me
Like right after that
I seen that
I'm like shoving to Vegas
Cool
That's what I was on
So then when I got to my
I don't mean
When y'all do that emoji shit
On top of the messages bro
Like I just
I don't fuck with that
So I don't really be caring
About the notifications
Just say yes
I'm good
Now I have a question
This is a great place to start
If you send somebody a question,
you know what I'm saying, via text,
and they hit the thumbs up emoji,
is that a valid response or is that out of pocket?
Because I know some people who take that as disrespect.
I mean, it kind of is, though.
That's just like, shout out to Kaya.
I know Kaya James, somebody,
she sent somebody a happy birthday,
and they just hearted it.
They didn't say thank you.
She was pissed.
I do that shit.
That's what I do.
You just like some shit?
Yeah, I mean, writing thank you just take too
long. Double clicking.
I'm a copy paste guy.
You got no standby?
That take too long. It's in my notes, bro.
Thank you is in your notes?
So on my birthday, I just
everybody who texts my phone
like
I just
copy it and just paste it
motherfuckers be tight bro
you tell your motherfucker
happy birthday
have a great day
enjoy it
fireworks and shit
you just hit the
you give them a heart
it ain't no disrespect
I don't even send people
happy birthday and stuff though
yeah
yeah I don't
feel no type of ways
about that stuff
I mean if they send you a paragraph and you hit the double tap they're gonna feel away for sure
don't send me no paragraph i hate phones
i miss the days when we didn't have phones go back to the beepers i don't want no beeper i
wish when i could leave the crib and nobody can contact me man that's scary these days shit i'm saying now i mean if you got kids
yeah but i'm saying that's what that was us though yeah on that bike nigga it was murder i see you
it was murder i didn't even have no curfew in the neighborhood so that was even more wicked i had to
be in when the street lights came on yeah street lights was
definitely indicator and the funny shit is now i laugh at kids because shit back in the day your
mom asked you to do something click up all day mom i see it nowadays hey take that beat out of
refrigerator all damn i ain't talk to you they send you a text and a call i'd be mad if i was
a kid now you can't finish your parents at all yeah by the time that got to happening i was
already out the house yeah i used to leave the crib at 7.30 in the morning, nigga.
In the summer?
Oh, yeah, niggas was active.
What?
Nigga, I'd be outside by 8 on the bike.
Niggas would be like, I remember Phil's dad used to be like,
hey, my man, you got to eat breakfast somewhere else.
I used to be at his house eating breakfast at 8 in the morning.
There's a lot of them
Well
It's 18
And they've been a career
I had another bagel
That's the AAU squad
I used to be there
So early
You and Dale Rodgers
Go home
On God bro
Yeah pulling up
You was out of pocket
Coming to somebody's house
At eight is crazy
I was there
Every day
I was there so early
I could not go
Fill the door
I think I'd be like What's up Getting in the I could not go fill a door. That nigga be like,
what's up?
Getting a shower,
man,
it's time to go.
That nigga be like,
damn,
nigga.
I'll take summer school
already.
I don't want to do
this shit every day.
Poor Phil.
He's been stressing
for a long time.
My fault,
Phil.
My bad,
bro.
That's crazy.
Hey,
man,
as we know,
summer league is
slowly approaching.
But what I think is dope about the summer league, of who you feel about who's playing and whatnot i think
it's fire because a lot of those guys um may not have an opportunity to be with that particular
team but everybody is low-key kind of auditioning you know i'm saying for their next season um it
was interesting seeing ronald holly jefferson talk about like you know i'm saying he was like
he was out the league a little bit early. He'd been going crazy overseas, like waiting to get an opportunity
to get back.
And I was just seeing his testimony
and stuff.
And then you see like,
oh, but we talking about
in China going through it.
It's just like,
yeah, the NBA is a premier league,
but everybody in the summer
right now who hooping
is hooping for a job
that's probably won't be in a league.
So everybody ain't out there on bullshit.
Niggas careers have been built off that.
Yeah, I see how people
take it in the big three.
They take it serious.
Like, in my head,
when I was going to the big three,
I was like,
about to be cool.
Like, I'm like,
yeah, in the middle of the game,
I'm going to start podcasting
and shit.
But I see how serious
they take it.
It's like, oh,
they really auditioning
for other shit, though.
And I didn't really realize that
until I got out there
and, like, niggas,
like, I hear them in the locker room.
Like, I'm trying to go back
to Italy.
I'm trying to go here. I'm trying to, like, oh i'm trying to oh they playing for real okay my fault you have no
disrespect but same thing with summer league yeah it was crazy to hear him talk about that situation
he's like you know i'm saying i'll do whatever i need to get back in the league and you even see
too many bad allegations against him but they got a lot of people on the other side of it like okay
you got players like miles bridge you got players like kevin porter who went through some real crazy
situations that in other times would have probably got them out of the league or out the way to get
new contracts and get new money and it's just like a lot of people feel different ways about it but
i'm like at the same time this is an opportunity that a lot of people gonna take and i like summer
league i was sure niggas is playing for their lives in the day like it might look fun may look
a little like today's good now niggas is hooping for a totally different reason and that's low-key the
best type of basketball when niggas is hooping on the line nah yeah uh when you like on a guarantee
contract like you're a rookie or a second year player it's kind of annoying like if you're a
rookie you're trying to impress people if you're a second year player you're trying to solidify like
i shouldn't be here but you're trying to kill in the first two games you're trying to get 35 points so they can send you home because you low-key
offended a little bit yeah especially if you play your rookie year you really offended but like you
ain't get to play that much every year you're just trying to show like yo i'm better than them
yeah dmp mate yeah hell yeah because i was looking at some of the rosters even like the california
classic and stuff like uh we're gonna talk about Zach Eady, too.
Put me in the game completely out of pocket.
Shout out to the gang.
But I was looking at, like, the Jazz.
Like, Walker Kessler, bro, why are you playing?
Like, I see some of them.
But, like, some of them guys, especially some, like,
even some Pacer dudes who played in rotation in the Easter Conference,
bro, I would feel offended if I'm out here too late.
I know I can hoop, but what am I doing out here? If I'm playing rotational minutes in the playoffs, why, bro, I would feel offended if I'm out here too late. I know I can hoop,
but what am I doing out here?
If I'm playing rotational minutes
in the playoffs,
why am I in Summer League?
Someone probably just do it
for the wreck too, bro.
Yeah.
But,
that's like to solidify,
like,
you shouldn't be here.
Like,
give us one or two games.
Dominate them.
But if you don't dominate,
it's like,
hmm,
what you been doing
since the,
blah, blah, blah.
That's a risk too, because if you go in them games that don't kill, it's kind of like, hmm, what you been doing since the blah, blah, blah. That's a risk too
because if you go in
them games that don't kill,
it's kind of like,
we can get rid of this.
Yeah.
That was going to be
my counterpoint.
Get rid of this thing.
If you go kill,
you're expected to kill
because you done played
in real minutes.
But if you out here
and get hooped on,
it's just like,
oh, maybe this is bullshit.
Because if you're in
rotational minutes
in the playoffs,
you should go to the league.
I ain't saying
somebody can get 50, but you should be 25.
But the thing is, your role on that team is different
than it is going to be on the Summer League team.
Like, some people are better NBA players than they are Summer League players.
Like, I might fit a role on a team.
I might be a catch-and-shoot, knock-down three,
but I'm playing with Tyrese Halliburton,
so I know I'm waiting in the corner.
I'm ready to shoot.
I'm in Summer League. I ain't playing with tyree salaburton so i know i'm waiting in the corner i'm ready to shoot i'm in summer league i ain't playing with tyree salaburton i'm playing with a boy that just came from georgia he ain't passing the ball like that so they expect me to go get the
ball and be tyree salaburton and do some stuff that i really can't do no more because i've been
playing yeah because i've been playing with this dude and i didn't in a row. And I remember my second year coming into summer league.
We didn't do summer league my rookie year,
but my second year going into summer league,
I had already been in the NBA mindset, like, picking pop with Al.
You know what I mean?
Picking pop with Joe Smith.
I'm being a point guard now in the summer league.
They want you to go out there and get 30.
I'm like, now, if this was the year before,
I would have gave y'all 35 every game. But now, now this year i'm in this mode where i'm looking for pocket passes
kicking it to the corner and you playing with a bunch of dudes that don't know nothing about
yeah so you look bad i look kind of bad my second year it wasn't like i was killing me and jordan
crawford was just taking turns shooting but i wasn't looking looking, like, good. I'll never forget that.
And that's very interesting that you said that
because I think the one thing that people kind of miss
when those situations,
if you got somebody who specializes in the open gym,
at some point, they're going to look like that nigga.
But if you have a player who's used to a system
where you used to play in a particular way,
where guys don't know nothing about that,
they're all probably rookies from the 18,
where they shot the ball 15 times.
Coming into a system, you're already mature then.
That shit's a hell of a balance.
And it makes you look bad, but you're doing everything the organization wants you to do.
But then they might ridicule you on that shit, which is crazy at the same time.
I mean, yeah, because at the end of the day, it's still hoop.
So it's like you got to go out there and perform.
But it's kind of difficult if you're not just a natural bucket getter.
If you're just a natural bucket getter, hooper, just a natural bucket getter hooper like you're jamal crawford he can play anywhere because every team he went to they
just told him to do you like be that everybody's gonna get that privilege and it's always a lot
of dudes that's nice that you'll see him like how the hell he ain't in the nba if he ain't get that
same leash just to go out there and be like go do do that. But, part of the game.
That shit sparked the conversation
because I was watching
some summer league highlights
and I watched J.R. Smith
play in the summer league
in 2009
after he had been in the league
for five or six years.
I'm saying.
He was out there killing it, bro.
This is where I want to get the ring, bro.
Yeah, he one of them dudes.
And then,
five or six years,
your confidence so high.
now,
if you put me in a summer league game at year three or four,
I would have went berserk.
Because my confidence was so high.
But, like, in your first year, after your first year,
and you didn't get to play, you really ain't that confident.
Like, you're kind of like, damn, I want to kill.
But, nigga, you ain't played in a year, really.
So, your confidence might be a little low.
But, after four or five, I done started.
I done had 35 points in the NBA.
This is going to be a breeze.
Hell yeah.
And I think what's so dope about it now that they've made it
so marketable, you got the marquee games
on, you got the young rookies that you just saw
in college, but you're excited to see
even some of the second-year players we was talking about come back.
We talked about last episode a little bit,
but I'm really excited to see that timberwolf summer league team
uh i think rob dillingham is a person who can go out there and really i mean all right he got a
name obviously but he could go out there and really make a big showing because we look at
people like donovan mitchell who went out there and killed and got a shoe deal off that shit
now we obviously know that ain't normal but is there any names i want to see in the summer league
or any people y'all y'all know i'm saying, who y'all see transition like?
Because, you know,
a lot of times in college
they get held back
by programs and college coaches.
Now you're going to see
a little bit of,
all right, all right,
go show us why you
a lottery pick type shit.
Yeah, I just,
me personally,
I just, like I said,
I only,
I'm only here for connect.
Everybody else can
just do their thing, bro.
I don't,
I don't care about Summer League
because I know
what's the answer.
Yeah, he hates that shit. He can say, you know, he's like, does that shit need to be resolved? He know that shit don't i don't care about summer league because i know what's that he hates
because you don't get that same freedom so even though rob go out there and he can have 65 points
in the game it's gonna be hard but i'm like damn he can score that month yeah nigga when he get to
that team anthony edwards is getting that ball. Yeah. It's getting the ball. Yeah.
He might get you about eight or nine, ten off the bench,
but he ain't going to have the ball like that.
For sure.

I've seen a little bit of that footage.
Cooper Flagg looking like the one.
A lot of people were doubting it, but.
I'm being serious.
He the one.
I don't know why.
That's crazy, bro.
He like, and I know people, oh, he's just high always in high school like nah you can tell in the motherfucking game he really liked that bro he called him and aj i
be fucking up his name i think it's the bandsaw whatever bro aj the bass so what's funny they are
really pros for real bro yeah so mount verdon got him all the way together he's from maine too
like that yeah so he ain't
really grow up hooping with like we did you know i mean in our city or chicago or new york like he
really went to work bro in maine and then went to that big ass eybl circuit and dominated then
dominated at mount verd he gonna kill it duke he the number one draft pick the thing is you could tell when
somebody's just special like he got a twin brother or a brother or something he don't look like him
don't he not tall as him he don't jump like him he play a big man he's like six seven cooper flag
like six ten you can tell like the booze swim. They both good, but one just special.
Like, you can tell it.
You can see it.
That's why I was like,
yeah, he not.
Boozer supposed to go
straight out of high school.
He supposed to be able
to go straight out
of high school.
We really just holding him back.
Like, that one year at Duke
ain't going to do nothing
but hurt him.
Like, God forbid
this happen or something,
but he twisted his ankle
and got set out the whole year.
You know, some shit like Kyrie.
Ain't no point for him
to go into college, bro.
He was an NBA player, bro.
He played 10 games in college.
Hell yeah.
And you look at AJ DeVance, bro.
He's going to murder
at the next level.
He's still 17.
He got another year of school.
He even jumped up.
Like, we can tell them ones.
Like, the rules don't apply
to everybody,
but special players like them,
we know they like that.
But to see him in that scrimmage
was fire to see. Like, I know the select team, everybody back out of the select team is players like them, we know they like that. But to see him in that scrimmage was fire to see.
Like, I know the select team, everybody back at the select team has said,
no, they're typically pro players.
Like, the Vickens can hoop too.
No, they good.
He was just doing, man, he was doing my boy Wyclef bad.
I mean, 6'10".
Like, I'm just saying, bro, I was like, to be going at, like, Drew like that
is crazy, bro.
Confidence. He was just out there hoping yeah i mean but it's easy to play when you playing free yeah it's easy to play when there ain't no rules
really for you you really the test dummy so it's easy i mean as a 17 year old you really can't do
no wrong everything is a green for you even if you're getting killed he's 17 yeah and i'm planning
yeah yeah 17 but if you have a moment like you just said he scored on drew they like only 17
so he it was a win-win situation this whole thing for him but this just solidified him being the
number one pick to have success against the usa team and all them star caliber players yeah it's
it's a done deal yeah he getting to it and I like the fact that they scrimmage.
Like, I seen Trace out there, which was fire to see.
But I think what's so crazy is that they voted that LeBron was the best player on the team USA.
Listen, y'all.
I get it.
Who voted that?
Apparently, the team voted LeBron was the best player on the team.
They just said in practice.
Yeah.
But LeBron is that dominant, though.
Where he could take over a practice bro
especially in that usa shit he's a godfather now yeah i'm showing that picture of him at
oh four and then now i'm like bro you've been on the team 20 years bro but like
like him like everybody's saying that he practiced so hard and he worked so hard
and practiced but it's like i used to didn't believe that kind of shit.
But now I really believe it.
Because, like, bro, you've been that good for that long, bro.
It takes a certain type of work.
Like, I just think about getting up every day now and, like, I go work out.
But I don't do nothing crazy.
I'm trying to maintain some shit so I don't look crazy.
Like, to be that good for that long since you was 18 yeah bro you're
worth that there gotta be something crazy bro and i remember a couple years ago bro he had a quote
and he was talking about like having rest time he was like shit my body hurt when i have rest he
said i'm used to getting up and doing everything string was every day that's how i maintain
i'm like yeah that nigga different bro because there's no way you can get up and say damn
arrest day hurts but if you've been moving like that since she was 14 years old,
your body probably just used to that.
He different, bro.
He the healthiest NBA player ever, bro.
Yeah, for sure.
For sure.
He ain't never had a serious injury.
I mean, he had his ankle that one year, but that really wasn't too much of none.
Yeah, Lakers was still kind of tanking, too.
That Laker year.
But I remember watching LeBron
severely twist his ankle,
him tie his shoe,
limp down the court
and catch the ball
at half court
and come back and dunk.
No, nigga.
Deshaun Stevenson
is my witness, bro.
This nigga rolled his ankle.
I swear to God,
that bitch touched the floor.
We got, like,
we ain't hypey hurt,
but we like,
he's out.
We got the witness game.
He's out.
No, shit, i ain't lying nigga
did like this like that i said nigga start wiggling his foot and stay in the game when
i think it was the heat yeah i was like
he's he's alien yeah i said he's not real bro what got activated my boy touched the ground
did that and start wiggling that's what i said you weren't supposed to see that bro yeah i was I said he's not real Bro I got activated Bro I'm talking about That boy touched the ground Did that
And start looking
That's what I said
You weren't supposed to see that bro
Yeah I was like yeah
That's that monster
Yeah I said something
Fuckin' pushed that button
Yeah something kicked in bro
Something kicked in
Fuckin' pushed that button
Me and Deshaun Stevenson
Looked at each other like
I'm like yeah he out
Yes
About to win
That's crazy.
I wouldn't hope he was severely hurt,
but shit, he twisted. I ain't going to know you out.
I did that a hundred times. You got to sit that one out.
You just did it. Yeah.
I'm like, you got to sit that out.
He hit a yoga pose. He came back and dropped the point and missed the game.
Running faster.
He came back stronger.
That boy got activated.
Hey, remember the LeBron
Deshaun Stevenson beat
where Jayce dissed him
over a blow to whistle beat
that's crazy
that's a crazy
diss record
shout out to D. Steve
getting dissed over
a song for the freaks
is crazy
they can talk about
these hoes bro
who want you a ho
D. Steve
they said Soulja Boy
wrote D. Steve
a diss track
for LeBron for something i can't remember
i gotta probably soldier boy is the ghost writer that's a problem i gotta nah he ain't right i mean
i think soldier boy did something with d steve came to the game or something d steve man that's
crazy that's crazy bronco got ho john steve got soldier boy yeah shout Yeah. Sean Steve, one of the coolest teammates
I ever had, bro.
He was cool.
Yeah, I want him to come on the show
and talk about that time
when him and Gilbert were shooting,
when Gilbert beat him.
Like, I want to,
because I-
Please define when you say
Gilbert shooting,
because, you know,
that goes a couple different ways
on the internet.
Nah, bro.
I'm on the court.
We'll get rid of him.
Yeah, there we go.
I want to hear, like,
how that started and shit,
because niggas talk about- I'm just saying that y'all talking about work ethic.
Niggas say Gilbert, the witness work ethic is crazy.
Yeah, second to none.
Everybody know that in the league.
They like Gilbert crazy.
And that's crazy because you would think at that level where so many people kind of not log in with talent.
Because everybody in the NBA has talent to an extent.
Either if it's on a lower or higher, everybody's code to get to that level.
But that work ethic shit really be be meaning shit especially at that like it separates the
superstars from the all-stars to the mid-tier players but i can also see when you get comfortable
enough on the contract bro i can kind of relax a little bit like i undeveloped my game now that's
the kryptonite for everybody that happened to me i bit that i bit that bug too a little bit like i
got comfortable like yeah shit that's all i gotta do
get 15 16 8 assists i can do that in my sleep and then you just stop not working you still work
because you want to be good but you don't put in that extra you see the people who put in extra
you start seeing them take a little more step like you still at 15 You see Drew Holiday go to 18. You're still at 16.
Drew Holiday at 20.
You're like, okay.
Now you're trying to – you took two years off.
You behind.
So you see it, though.
But then they maintaining their body.
They doing all that stuff to make them better players.
And that's the reason they still playing.
That's interesting.
And I got to ask you this.
Did you ever,
I mean,
you was aware of who
your draft class was
and probably people who wasn't,
you know,
like when you was getting signed,
like free agents to get around.
Who going to be available?
Were you available?
Did you like kind of keep up
on their stats?
I know you mentioned with Drew
and stuff,
but did you ever kind of
pay attention to that?
No,
I only did that one time.
That's when me and Drew Holiday
was going to be free agents
at the same time.
And I knew that me and him
was going to get paid
from the Pacers
and he was going to get paid from the pacers and
he's gonna get paid from the pelicans but like i think y'all know the story how it fell through
because paul george left or whatever yeah that's the only time i ever really paid attention i ain't
really care i ain't never really checked nobody else pockets because i money don't mean all that
to me like that i just wanted to always be comfortable take care of my my mom and dad i
ain't really give a fuck about but But then when you see the numbers,
you be like, damn.
I can get this.
Oh, I could get that?
Like, he got $120,000 a day?
What the fuck?
I can get that?
Yeah, I was going to say,
I know you,
like you say, you mind your own money.
And most people do that.
But then when you start seeing
what you signed for,
somebody else get that ESPN alert.
Like, he signed for what?
Yeah, you can't do that, though. That's when you get fucked up do that though that's when you get spooky yeah you start worrying about what the next
man got you start ruining your blessings bro i don't i don't do that i just be happy for that
too yeah that's real because i was looking at paul george um paul george's contact about his
situation with the clippers um i got mixed feelings about it and i understand why he feels
his way about it as well but i think
some of that towards the end of it was hey you can't really be worried about what everybody
else getting because you just got worried about what you got going on and sometimes that can ruin
the situation and basically off response is kind of how he talked it seemed like philly was the
last option that he wanted to be at this offseason which is kind of interesting to go into the season
with that like i mean they got a whip now they're gonna be good for sure but it's kind of interesting
to see how he felt about the contract negotiations with the
clippers how that panned out and then you look at the time periods a lot of different stuff he's
like okay you didn't really get along with the clippers in a situation that then at the time
that you're saying y'all didn't have no communication as far as contract wise is when y'all went in a
bad slump and he was just like let me get out my feelings like let me just get back to ball
but then we look in the offseason now it's like all right it looked like philly was your last
option slash resort in the situation you saying that made it all make sense like yeah when you
kind of look at those situations the contract wise it could fuck your game up and fucking mental up
yeah you start worrying about when i'm gonna get paid who got paid when i'm gonna get this i ain't
gonna lie bro i swear my contract got broke out in hives bro i'm went to the trainer
like something wrong i got shit all over i'm like what the fuck i done got a bad batch you know i
mean something i was like what's going on and he like oh these are hives he's like here you gotta
take some benadryl like you gotta alert your reaction to something so i'm like damn what i
eat oh you know i mean i'm thinking like it's like you eat fish like did you do you eat seafood take some Benadryl. Like, you got allergic reaction to something. So, I'm like, damn, what'd I eat? Oh.
You know what I mean?
Well, I'm thinking like,
it's like,
you eat fish.
Like,
did you eat seafood?
Did you eat something
you don't normally eat?
So,
I'm sitting there,
they do all these,
they do all these tests
on you in the NBA.
You know what I'm saying?
They take you to the doctor,
do all these tests on you.
He came back,
he's like,
no,
you just got a high.
He's like,
man,
are you stressing?
Oh,
I was going through the ringer.
I shot 28% tonight. God tonight god damn i gotta be at
38 40 get this money like i was doing all that shit i was going crazy man i was so happy when
i signed that dude i'd never wear it again after that but that first time that was the first
contract 32 because you know i was like i was nervous as hell you know they tell you you only got four
like the average uh lifespan of an nba player the average is four years yeah i'm in year four
i'm like shit if i don't get this deal like shit i ain't gonna i don't know where i'm going i go
overseas i'm thinking all this shit i'm not overseas too you're not realizing that you
starting in the nba you're going to get a deal.
Yeah.
But you're like, damn, I just want to make sure.
And I was just stressing.
Man, you broke out of highs.
I didn't know that one.
Yeah, I was stressing crazy, bro.
That's crazy, bro.
Hell yeah, you had to be, nigga.
Yeah, I'm talking about every game you looking at shit.
Imagine that, bro.
You feel like your life on the line.
Every time you play, you like, nigga, I ain't shooting three times i was doing all type of shit bro you're trying to save the mg
man what i was doing all type of shit that just wasn't even like part of the game like
like half court shots no sir would never shoot that you're not painting pressure nope i throw
somebody else dribble the clock out act like i couldn't get him out once man
everything was about stats and numbers and then you got people telling you like you know i mean
yeah instead of like just yeah instead of people like yo just hoop just hoop like just kill you
gonna have fun they like you gotta shoot over you gotta be 45 for the field and get closer to that
three man i don't think you can shoot it get to like 35 36 so when you get
there you like shit i ain't shooting no more threes and you like man i'm out here playing bad
because i'm worried about this and that's one because i'll never forget draymond trying to um
trying to make fun of moe harkless for stepping in off the three-point line taking him long too
he's like you scared to shoot three he said nick i got a contract bonus
fuck what you talking about it's 500k is secure. I'm not shooting a three
for the next three months.
I'm telling you, bro,
that shit be in your head.
That's why,
that's why I don't bet.
Like, I don't gamble.
But when we do,
we use DraftKings.
But when we do,
we use DraftKings,
but I don't because
I know I've been
one of those dudes.
Yeah.
She'll tell me about that paper.
When they just read that paper
and see them numbers.
Yeah.
That shit is spooky, bro. But if I was a betting man
I would win a lot of money
Cause I would just look
And see what we're in
Contract year
And I'd be like
Oh I know what he about to do
I could win money
Now that's smart
Cause the average bettor
Don't know shit about that
Mm-mm
All you gotta do is
Find out who in their contract year
They gonna play their best best basketball that fucking year.
Oh, yeah.
You know who the king of that shit was?
Tyson Chandler.
Oh, my God.
He would go missing for about two years.
You ain't heard from him a while type of shit.
That contract year, phew, Tobias Harris.
For sure.
Golden, except last year.
Sure.
His grandfather didn't know.
It don't matter what he do.
It's 25 years. Me. No no i believe that hardly even like role players like motherfuckers even like fred van fleet boy master that i said oh fred reading that paper
put me on you know i mean we're talking about hoop all the time but sheryl we're like
all right bro that shit niggas about to get a bag bro so look at kcp bro anytime it's cut at kcp go super
saying bro you look at your effective field goal percentage you look at how your usage rate
compared to other people that got 20 million a year or whatever and you try to measure up to
them when they go to them analytics and that shit match up
well yeah he's worth 20 million it's like yeah so what since we educating people on that like
what's the is it something that's more important than the next or what if you off by do you know
i mean you off a certain percentage no i mean field goal percentage three point percentage
defensive rating and all that stuff play a part when you're doing analytics
right
if you're offensively killing
but a nigga
giving you 30 a night
ah yeah
so that's gonna fuck up
with y'all
let's go
yeah yeah
but like
your win shares
now they look at
your defensive win shares
and shit like that
but if you like a KCP
and you look at his
defense percentage
and his like
field goal percentage
and where he take his shots from
and he like
he a high three point shooter
most of his shots
are three pointpoint shooters.
But he's a really good
on-the-ball defender.
He got good defensive ratings.
Got you.
So it's like,
oh, he's going to affect
the game this way
on defensively
and then he's going to do
what we need.
We need three-point shooting.
Okay.
Then it compares
to somebody else
that did that
maybe a year before
or in that current situation.
And they'd be like,
yeah, he's worth 25 million.
Next thing you know, you're getting $25 million.
I did not know that because if I did,
I would have played defense so different.
That's why I wanted to ask you about that,
if it played like a part.
You got steals, too.
That's the funny part about it.
Yeah, I just didn't.
I used to get scored on a high rate.
That's what I'm saying.
But if I didn't know that,
I would have closed down a little
differently you got to be smart like kairi and luca yeah now i get it luca switch
i'll get it now it makes sense for sure now i always wanted to know me and bro talk about it but
i didn't know how that played a part like if i'm averaging 20 this year but a nigga cooking me
how many millions is that deducted
i mean it's it's all about it's also about the team who you love and like what the team feel
about you and stuff that play a role too it ain't like you just gonna get paid because you average
these numbers this guy's off the bench to average 16 but it might not be an effective 16 he might
be like oh he shoot 17 shots a game or whatever that's true so he'd be like like a
kelly uber you'll see his stats i remember one year he averaged like 20 for like charlotte or
somebody and he went into free agency and nobody signed him and everybody like damn he averaged 20
though it's like in your head you'd be like i averaged 20 it's like yeah when we do the numbers
this is a losing team this is how it looked it don't matter and it's crazy bro because they're there put that shit like you're going shopping on amazon bro they put everything
in filters and see which statistics fit for their team then from that latter they go through and
see okay these are the people we have this criteria all right what's this chemistry like
what's his longevity like what's his age and they start going into the health and all that shit it's
crazy analytics have really changed the way people go into free agency and shit all right now i get
it then so that makes sense why, okay, see,
why Houston paid James Harden like they did.
Because based off his, like.
Analytics.
It was.
Like for that team?
Yeah.
He generated so much.
See who you playing with.
So if we put you by yourself, it'll.
And the plus minus was crazy too,
because like he was coming off the bench, quote unquote.
So like his impact with that was so crazy.
But I remember Gil had an episode with Lil Will, and it was just going off the stats and times and stuff
like that and like it was like if lou will was a starter with the same stats with a little increased
minutes he'd have been a max like he had max deal production but that was getting them on like a
bench role player type salary which is crazy so like you said that how they place you in those
situations with them analytics could change how much you get paid drastically.
And sometimes they play like Lil Will.
Obviously, he should have got played way more than whatever he was getting paid.
But it also affects like, all right, he's a two guard or whatever.
Can he guard this?
That's why Drew Holiday is so effective when you get paid because he can feel like he can play multiple positions.
And you'd be like, damn.
Like Derek White, they can guard multiple positions.
That's why they get paid as a defender and a guy that can score.
Like now, if you're just a cold-blooded scorer,
you don't get appreciated the same way.
A two-way player is going to get paid way more than that.
Hell yeah.
Because I always looked at another always keep a job like Tobias Harris,
Aaron Aflalo.
Aaron Aflalo was the king of contract year getting buckets and keeping 15, 20 year and then fading off until it was time to get paid.
Yeah, I fucked with AA.
I wonder whatever happened to him.
I mean, shit, bro.
He played in the league probably 13, 14 years.
I just didn't.
I know he was on his way out when he swung on belly.
We had a game, bro.
He just fired off on belly for
no reason bro barely put him in a headlock damn ain't that who you got into it i ain't got just
slapped i love belly too that's my dog wait first we got races bro we fuck with you bro i don't know
why they're gonna follow fired on, swung on him, missed.
Belly,
belly like what?
And put him in a headlock.
We all know.
He just put him
on the headlock.
That's crazy.
I ain't gonna lie,
belly crazy, bro.
Bro, he crazy.
I don't know.
Man.
Yeah, there it go right there.
He just fired on him.
He swung on him,
belly had him in a headlock.
Yeah, I gotta clip that there. He just fired on me. He swung on me. Belly had him in the headlock. Yeah, I got to clip that up.
That's crazy.
Shout out there to the follow-up, man.
Yeah, man.
Give us a little bail.
Give us a little bail.
Fuck with you over here.

lowest price guaranteed uh another clip we got sent our way um did smith jr was talking about
his first um game winner in the league it was against y'all he did yeah he uh he escorted on
d rose he was just like i ain't trying to brag, but he was like, man,
I got my first GW in the league
against one of my favorite players ever. And somebody
tagged it. It was like, Jeff Teague has been a part of
everything that's ever happened in the NBA.
I was on the floor
when he hit his game with it? Yep. You weren't guarding him, though.
Wow, shout out to Dennis Smith Jr.,
man. I don't remember it, but
I'm sure we'll get to see it here
soon.
That's hard.
That's crazy.
But shout out to all the young boys getting paid.
K just got his extension.
Franz Wagner got a bag.
Obviously, he one of them people.
Knew that was coming, though.
Yeah, for sure.
For sure.
I can't wait to see what PB get.
He going to probably get that.
That's the same thing with brothers.
There you go.
If Mo Wagner is good and then you see his brother,
it's a little different.
Damn sure. Respectfully.
Oh, for sure. I've never really seen two brothers and they both was like
cold. The same? Yeah.
Because you look at Brooke and Rob
and it's definitely different.
Yeah.
Steph and Seth is like
It's a difference.
You know, anybody else who like brothers was like it's like. It's a difference. Yeah. It's definitely a difference.
You know, anybody else who like brothers was like.
Clay and Michael.
They're a little different too.
Drew and his brothers.
For sure.
Oh, yeah.
Definitely.
I think the closest that'll be together is probably the Thompson twins.
They got.
Nah, one of them different though.
One of them is a pure goon on defense.
But I'm saying how they looked at, I think in the league, it'll them different, though. One of them is a pure goon on defense. But I'm saying how they looked at it, I think in the league,
it would probably be the same.
It would be the same.
They both going to be $100 million players, bro.
You think so?
One of them ain't going to play that much.
The one in Houston?
Yeah, he got a tough situation.
He in a tough situation.
If he leave, because he got an offensive bag, bro.
But that boy, that's with him, Kim.
He like that. Yeah.
Cam Whitmore. He liked that.
I was so pissed when the Pacers passed on him.
I fuck with Jarius, but I was just like,
man, we could've got Cam. He
liked that. He different.
He wanted people to, the Lakers
shitty that they passed on.
They did not play the draft pick last year at all, and Cam
would've gotten in the team for sure.
Yeah, he nice, bro. Yeah, you're going to have me
thinking about that.
Them, the twins, too.
The Morris twins,
they probably close
in comparison, too.
Yeah, but Marcus...
I don't know
because I remember Keith
was the best one at first
and then Marcus came,
got better.
That's the closer
you're going to get.
And them there,
they too close.
Like,
they the same person,
I don't know.
They got the same tattoo on their left side. They the same person almost he's got the same tattoo yeah it's
the same person that's the best one and keep it cute because they pull up i wish i had a twin
god we don't need two headshots out here yeah yeah the morris ones they're the closest in game
i'll probably say right now marcus is better yeah yeah keith was better at first when he was in
phoenix and then i say marcus as a career kept going yeah keith was better at first when he was in phoenix
and then i say marcus has a career kept going i think he was better but they very close for sure
