Nigga, I said, can't fuck with that nigga right there. That shit say 245. That nigga gonna fuck with him. I played him in a summer league game when it was me and Luke Will versus him and Damien Wilkins and shit.

I was on some hype shit, trying to check him and shit. It wasn't nothing I could do, but he was the only nigga like him. He the only nigga like him. That nigga not normal, bro. I'll take that all the time. Most slept on NBA player ever.

Yeah, that nigga cold, bro. But nah, this nigga used to kick ice, That nigga not normal, bro. I'll tell you that all the time. Most slept on NBA player ever. Yeah, that nigga cold, bro. But nah, this nigga used to kick ice, but this nigga amazing, bro. I used to go home and be like, because he could shoot. Nigga, I wasn't no shooter nigga like that. I was like, this nigga can shoot. But you had that demeanor that I ain't have.

You had that like, I can deal with the bullshit and still turn it on when it's time to turn it on. See me, I was like, when it's some bullshit, you gonna see, I think it's some bullshit. Oh God. You know what I'm saying me i was like when there's some you gonna see i think it's some bullshits oh god yeah that's some yeah and then but it's too late for me then then they already know what i'm on that's the whole with playing the game it was like when

i played the game it was like you full of yeah you know what you are trying to be a good thing i think over there clapping this you really ain't clapping good bro yeah that's what you don't know with that like that no that's what that's the day I remember like your wizard time but with the time I really remember we played y'all first of all you got me a tech man this was talking the rep text i was pissed i like that i said what the fuck we broke you and nick man for real i'm like we broke why the you on that was talking bad so yeah go run the place that ass That nigga was talking bad Go run the motherfucking place That ass nigga My nigga being modest over here

I was hyped for it How y'all get that check though Y'all was just barking back and forth Yeah we was just barking back and forth I was hyped cause I was hooping I was getting to play cause my whole team type shit That type shit I'm like get the fuck out of here

We just talking they take his check And I looked at him like what the the and he looked at me he's like man we ain't talking for a minute and i only played like 10 minutes that got ticked back then all right question before we go further you feel like you know what i'm saying the way the league is now how they let get that off you feel like you wish you could have played a little bit later in the league oh for sure i mean you know they were so when we first got in the league that's when instagram first got cracking so they were scared of instagram too so like i was doing a little funny show instagram so they was kind of just scared of me but now that's why this so dope not because they you know everybody it's like

everybody can play devil advocate like somebody do something wrong, they just be like, but they justify it. So they let niggas rock out. So I wish I would for sure. You know what I'm saying? Because I made niggas uncomfortable, and I really was just misunderstood. I say you was like seven or eight years too early. Because the way you play is what niggas get paid for now. Oh, me?

Anthony Simons is how you play like watch out i can get a bucket anytime anytime i want to get a bucket i can shoot i can get to the rim i can finish i could pass but that's what i always used to be honestly see me as a bucket i was always on some pg nah nah but i knew my scoring was gonna open up so yeah i might go in that bit shoot five straight times this scared of me you know what i'm saying scared but i almost i i see him i'm gonna drop that off you know i remember you was getting triple doubles in boston i i was tapping up like this is my bro yeah this is my so i'm like my is getting tripled up like i wore 55 because my wore 55

don't bullshit my that's hard my n 55. I'm getting 55, nigga. But nah, that nigga used to get triple doubles, but I used to be like, man, that nigga was just too, like when we came in the league, nigga, they used to real life be like, pass that bitch to the post and cut through. Yeah, for sure. And they was saying shit was bad shots.

Now I can be a nigga ninth man off the bench, his first shot could be a step back three. Yeah, it's cool. Yeah. Like they used to nigga, what? They used to always say, they couldn't wait to say my shit a step back three. Yeah. It's cool. Yeah. Like, they used to, nigga, what? They used to always say, they couldn't wait to say my shit was a bad shot. Yeah, it's facts, bro. You know what I'm saying?

For sure. You was seven years too early. Like, you came in right now. It's weird, though, because, I mean, even, you know, but, like, D-Rose, when D-Rose came out and they picked him over Mike Beasley, you was seeing, like, oh, they will pick a small nigga over the cold big nigga. You know what I'm saying? That's a late transition. Yeah. And then Steph came

and it was like, nigga, we could pick a nigga who we just make a shot every time. So it was like the shit was there, but then they was, they just always used to be like, yeah, I'm too small to be a two guard type shit. Yeah, I'm saying seven years too early. Now you get, look, seven years later, you got CJ McCollum and Dame in the backcourt.

We would have never, when we first came to the league, you would never. Six fours, two guard, hell nah. Like, we started Joe. But how many teams do do, like, two cold guards? Like, Dame and C.J. was the closest they did to the, like, two both playmaker types. But now you see, look, you had Terry Rozier,

LaMelo, like, you know what I mean? It's like, it's hella teams now that you can be like, you had Terry Rozier, LaMelo, like you, you know what I mean? It's like, it's hella teams now that you can be like, nigga, if you can hoop, we'll just throw you up

Yeah, that off guard usually can be small though. He like that. And it be on bullshit. Seven years, two years. Especially if the point guard

like 6'5", LaMelo 6'5", he can go check a three. Yeah, easy. Absolutely. Absolutely. Easy.

Like CP and Steph this year. Nigga, they don't give a fuck, you can hoop, you can hoop. And they all be schooled. That's when we get to talk about these bum ass coaches. Talk about it. Man, they don't know how to coach that type shit though. Yeah, he a coach now, so that's why he throwing his hands up and shit.

I don't say nobody a bum. Yeah, I don't say nobody a bum. I'm just like trying to get a job. Hey look, I came here to make some niggas uncomfortable. Nah, do your thing. Go crazy, JC. Fuck that nigga over there, nigga. Nah.

We'll say average 30, niggas. I can't get a better example than Jeff T. as a coach, man. Nah, for sure. For sure. Nah, but on some real shit, like, he's 70 years too early. Think about how you scored a ball, bro. Nah, for sure. Niggas get paid millions for man. For sure. For sure. But on some real shit, like, he's 70 years too early. Think about how you scored a ball, bro. Well, for sure.

Niggas get paid millions for that, bro. For sure. I'm talking about a whole lot of millions. A whole lot of millions, bro, like hundreds and hundreds. And barely really scoring

that motherfucker. Yeah. Really scoring it. Nigga, what? What? You know? No shot at Austin Reeves. Not a shot at Austin Reeves.

I like Austin Reeves' game. I like him, too. I like a lot of niggas. It's just the thing is just like, take advantage of the minutes. That's my whole thing. Yeah, but he averaged what? 14, 15?

Yeah. But we know he got paid because he can play next to Bron. But that's- No disrespect. No offense bro. When he, that was him bro. Like he got niggas- I'm taking my nigga over.

Austin Reeves. Nah, I'm not saying. I am. I'm just saying you put, I am too. I'm just saying you put that nigga next to Bron and you need to go get a bucket, you just go get a bucket. Austin Reeves like that. He is like that.

I like him. For sure. But I'm just saying he can do this. You better than Cam Reddish. Hell nah, I'm a CR fan. I'm a pick Cam over. I don't know, bro. They'll tell you I'm one of the first ones to bounce for Cam.

He was a fried nigga like you. Cam Reddish. I play with Cam. They let my nigga nigga like you. I play with Kim. They let my nigga off the leash. I play with Kim, bro. I play with Kim. I like Kim a lot. Nah, yeah. Off the crease is nasty, though.

Off the crease is cold. They just, they be gasping a little bit. Like, they be gassing some shit. He nasty. Because he white. We're not going to do that, bro. I ain't playing that race car. I am.

That motherfucker can hoop. He nasty, bro. He can't playing that race car. I am. That motherfucker can hoop, bro. He nasty, bro. He can hoop. He nasty. But I'm just saying. They need to play, you know what I'm saying, like a Cam Thomas. You know what I'm saying? Like, you can see.

Nasty, bro. He can score the shit out of that. We talking about him with Edmund. He need to play. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, he nasty. That be my whole shit. Damn, that's crazy, man.

What was your favorite team you played on so far? I mean, it was a lot of different teams for a reason. I mean, that was my first. Atlanta was fun because it was like real vets. It was my first time seeing some shit. But, I mean, you know, Boston because I was player of the week. I got to be player of the week type shit. I was really playing.

So, yeah, that type. Yeah, probably them two situations. Oh, okay. Wizards was fun, too, though. You know what I'm saying? I didn't run around with the delinquents. I got the hoop and shit. So Yeah that type Yeah Probably them two situations Oh okay Wizards was fun too though You know what I'm saying Running around with the delinquents I got the hootie shit The generals

Yeah the generals You know what I'm saying I want to ask you some fry shit What was the best team nigga That you went out And had the time of the night Atlanta What was the best team

Yeah it gotta be Atlanta For sure ATL That shit was every day Shout out to Mike Bibby Hey Mike Bibby Melvin Deer, bro.

What's your take on it? I fuck with it. It's skillful. It's skillful, for sure. I don't think, like, they need to keep it. They need to make sure that shit is competitive as it can be. You know what I'm saying? I think it's a little watered down.

You know what I'm saying? Just on the competitive side. Because if you look at a football game, when you're watching football and then you're watching a basketball game, you'll be locked in to that football game. The way they commentate, the way they talk about what's going on. I just think everything is just cookie cutter in the NBA, but it's some talented motherfuckers though.

And I'll follow up with that, because obviously I'm a stu, I really fuck with you and I really fuck the game. I be seeing you kill Enrico Hines, and be like damn, I'm killing niggas that's getting 100 mil contracts. Like, I can see how you be like, I'm still doing my thing, but I'm killing y'all.

Oh, with direct deposit. That shit there. Yeah, first class flights. In Memphis, we got picked up by some sprinters. They was banging all dope shit. But, like, you know, the airport, everybody coming out, they had the doors open banging that shit.

It was like a tour. He missing the experience. He going to come, though. Nah, I just had a lot going on this summer. Yeah, for sure. Being a high school coach and shit you gotta come in that shit you will destroy that shit nah my knees ain't the same i've been seeing the highlights i was on the mission i was on the mission yeah he definitely was on the mission This nigga gonna start I know you nigga I watched it this year I'm like This nigga

right now phoenix suns how you feel about that big three? I like it. I like the fact that they got them two, like real two guards playing with each other. And Eric Gordon. Shout out to EJ, off the bench crazy. Yeah, I like real two guards playing with each other and they like, anybody can be the point. And of course KD gonna do what KD do.

So, I like them. I like them for sure. You like that team better than Boston? Nah, Boston, I like Jay. I like them for sure. You like that team better than Boston? Nah, Boston, I like Jalen Brown a lot. So, Jalen Brown and Tatum, I like them two together too much. Yeah. And what part of Zing is? And Drew.

And Drew. Drew make a hell of a difference. You don't want to play against them niggas, man. Yeah, that team crazy. That team crazy. Nine niggas who going to play defense all game. Is that the best team or is milwaukee the best team boston yeah i'm going i'm going milwaukee bro i'm gonna go boston because when dame and yannis figure that shit out bro it's gonna get spooky like it's two niggas you really can't stop how

y'all feel about dame as like a point though like he's gonna have to really kill and make the right play to win this boy i i like i think think Dame the second best point guard in the league. I think if you, unless you got like Luca at point, Luke is a point, but I always go back and forth between him and Luca. My favorite, my best player in the league is Shea. Oh, he nasty, cold. He nasty bro.

I think he the best player in the NBA though. Shea, best in the league. Damn, that's tough. I ain't gonna lie. All right man, revenge season for my nigga Kyrie, man. Y'all been counting my nigga out, man. See, now look, if they make it to the playoffs, Dallas, I think them two niggas can beat anybody.

That's the problem. Yeah. That's 240 balls in the second inning. Them two niggas can beat anybody. They can't guard nobody. They ain't got nobody. Front court gotta be a guard of slack, bro. They ain't got nobody. They didn court got to be a lot of slack, bro. They didn't even try to get nobody.

They got the kid from Duke, but that's going to be tough for you to be a center and get in the West. Like if Boston or Milwaukee, if they play Dallas in the finals, they're sweeping there. They can't guard nobody. They can't guard Book. They can't guard Bill. They can't guard KD. They can't guard. Luka got to guard somebody. Yeah, they can't guard nobody. But them two niggas can just guard nobody. They can't guard Book, they can't guard Bill, they can't guard KD, they can't guard, Luka gotta guard somebody.

Yeah, they can't guard nobody. But them two niggas can just scare people. If they own they shit. Yeah, they can get spooky. Yeah, they get. It's gonna be 245. Yeah, that's for sure. Grant Williams can't guard all them niggas we said.

Somebody gonna have to do some shit. They can have a moment for sure, but. But yeah. I don't know. Milwaukee, bro, it's just set up perfectly, bro, with Chris, Giannis. Chris is an X factor, bro, with Chris. They got a whip. Chris is an X factor. Yeah. And then you still got BP off the bench.

Yeah, Brooke Lopez. Yeah. On me. Yeah, he be hooping. And they big as hell. Like having Giannis and Brooke right there and then Chris Miller and BP off the bench, you still like – Ruse and Robert Williams hurt the Celtics. They ain't going to have to kill Drew, though.

It's going to be a one-on-one matchup. He's going to have to play better than Drew. And that's one thing that people ain't accounting for, Drew, is the fact that Drew defense made a hell of a difference. And he was still getting 20. So, they ain't got to get 30. Yeah. And I was on the team when the Pelicans played trailblazers.

I know you were. And Drew. I knew you was about to say that. Ooh-wee. That's why I segwayed. Ooh-wee. Ooh-wee. Hey, that nigga Drew nasty, bro. that drew nasty who we drew was on the bench

dang was still out there looking for that i see that when i seen that rip a chest of in stone that ain't normal bro that nobody move lateral't do that shit. Nobody move lateral like that nigga. Only nigga I seen move lateral like that was Avery Bradley. Avery Bradley. Oh, my goodness, bro. That nigga was an animal. Who a better defender, Avery Bradley or Drew Holiday in prime?

Yeah, you just take your pick, bro. Yeah, bro. That nigga Avery Bradley. I'm going to go Drew just because. That nigga Avery Bradley. That nigga was in bomb. That nigga was in ball. That shit was retarded. Yeah, that shit was retarded.

I never picked up full court in my life, bro. That nigga was at the. I said, hell no. He picked me up full court one time. I passed that bitch. I went the whole time. I'm like. I got it.

I made it to half finally after getting spent like 10 times. Got to half. I said, everybody clear out. This is an NBA. I was with the Wizards. It was boss. I said, everybody clear out. This is an NBA. I was with the Wizards in Boston. I said, everybody clear out.

I went at him. I'm tired as hell at this point. Shot the, that bitch in all glass. This nigga just locked me

the fuck up. Nah, that nigga was different, bro. Nigga, that nigga was guarding me hard.

He was picking me up full court. He was guarding me so hard one time. They called a timeout in Boston playoffs. I couldn't even hear the timeout. The guy was still trying to get by the nigga. He was still there.

That nigga later drew out the court and said, timeout. I was like, oh, shit. He was really like getting in your shit and looking up at you, nigga. Sliding and shit. It was crazy. I was like, this nigga here a demon, bro. You got to be a different nigga to play defense the entire time in the NBA.

Man, he was retarded on defense, bro. For about four, five years, he for sure was just locking. Yeah. Speaking of that Pelicans team, though, that's a really underrated team.

You got to see the beginning before everybody really paid attention to it because y'all had killers on that squad. I know, man. Alvin Gentry. That's a raggedy

me and i ain't play then it was demarcus ad they were supposed to y'all were supposed to win the show that was a well put together a ring, bro. I had a squad, bro. That was a well put together team.
