Yeah, I'm gonna take I'm gonna take Melo and of course I'm taking my boys shoveling and now never ever seen a team like that running it back to back with two different squads.
So I'm me ask you this question, which run was crazier the first one or the second one?
First one even crazier than the second one because of Gordon's last shot. It still gets played today, bro, like, yeah, I thought he hit that ship like real shit. You know we was in the building.
Oh yeah, I was at the game.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. We was there, bro. So that's for me. I think that run and then I fuck with it because that run helped him. He was not a lot to repick at the beginning of the year, hell no, and that pushed him all the way into whatever what are you going? Nine or eleven or something like that. So that's my my number one. I mean, Mellow was a dog out the gate, but they had they won't. They started off bad too, But yeah, that Butler run, Gordon Hayward, Yeah, bro, it's number one. That shot is crazy still, Bro. That's the greatest miss ever in college basketball.
And It's crazy because that screen at Manhowards said was illegal as fuck. He didn't tackle buddy, but I was fucking with it. I was at that game. I'm possible tickets of that game. I was still rolled that bull at the time, and like nobody from Duke right said ship to that buzzer went off.
That was one of the crazy game. Single was crazy too.
I mean he will that ship soon called singler, but that please, He's amazing, bro, He's amazing.
Most memorable shot for me is man dude from Villanova hit that shot. That's one of the coldest moments ever inn C double a after the market three man? What to pull up for three to win?
What's his name? Chris Jenkins?
Yeah, hit a big shot too, show too. But that that game tell you how to hit the game winner. That was a big shot though, bro. Hell yeah, bro, that was That was a big.
Shot, especially after the shot that was already hits the top.
This is crazy, yeah for game Nigga bow a walk off three for the National Championship.
Crazy bro, nah, But I with that.
That was cold for Mario Chalmers too.
You know what's crazy?
People love d Rose so much that we don't talk about that clip because that's one of the coldest Marsh Madis moments that we don't give a fuck because it was there. Gross Marriol Chalmers did his thing. That was a big big shot speaking like that while he pulling up that clip. You talked about that melody. People don't talk about this enough. With d Wade did the market in the tournament is absolutely insane too. D Wade went crazy, but he was balling in the tournament. He became a house a name after that. Wanted to do Yeah, this is crazy. Smack that bitch too.
I was pissed. Everybody was mad. I don't know why I was.
I was in college at the time, Mary Chomers, I think I was just pissed because Kansas had like Kansas is Kansas.
Yeah, but Arthur was wrong, uh twenty five.
Yeah, but I'm saying, like Memphis, I just felt like they was for the people, like they was hood. It was us c Dr. He gote tars to shot my dog. Niggas was we weren't Kansas. We was s mythis bro. I was in college. I want none of these niggas, but I just didn't like I.
Was just so you can relate more though.
But I was just so used to like singing Kansas, like my whole life. You see Kansas. Hear about Danny Manny and always Kirk he Rick and.
Nig Kentucky like I never heard of in this true I hated Kansas. I didn't keep blank Ford because he always wore he he got buckets.
But I never like one of the colds lefties to do it.
For sure.
He's definitely the freshest hooper him a PJ. Tucker in college he was freshman Dan and too. He was fresh than PJ in college flank he had that ship.
He had that ship.
He was the fresh he was aging and he changed shoes at halftime, so he wore two heaters every game.
Yeah, jam Nelson s up there too, the jerseys, and they still made the work.
They had en white, they had ridden white and red and white they had Remember they.
Came out there in them Barkley's. Boy Man, tell me I wasn't going to school and hooping in them Barkleys. They was too influential, bro and going to Saint Joe's. Like, it's crazy how people influence you. Like I really was influenced by him.
I wore a T shirt.
I wore my socks like mellow. I wore a big T shirt because of them. It's Aeleine start of mind. It was crazy how college people used to influence you.
It's not like that now, No, we because they're too accessible.
Yeah, I don't think kids look at college players and I'm like, damn, I want to be like that question.
I've never heard a kid they go straight to the league, straight league. I've never heard in this generation, never heard a youngster say they want to be Adam Morrison or somebody or I don't even know you're saying Keith Langford and Delonte Wes, you know what I mean. I don't know if Keith laying from ajor league. But Delonte West wasn't no big big name, just fucked with the swag and he was cold. I don't know no cold college player that ain't really making a run in the NBA.
The kids are just locking in with even even now that it don't even like this, like the same excitement around this, like our age grouping up love marsh Manners, all the alumni and ship.
But like the kids, they don't give a funk about that they tapped it.
They go about it in the heartbeat don't give a damn about that two fifteen upset.
Because I feel like Jeremiah Fear is supposed to have fans.
He probably do got fans because he was a young high schooler that people probably watch.
But I'm just saying, how like I fell and got.
No game either. They don't have no video game either. We had March mars Man.
They're working to bring it back to But I was just too much of a fan of college athletes, like even Irison before we got to the league, bro, and in the concourse, and like even I Georgetown jerseys and ship and I could just keep going on and on.
About I was more of a college fan than I was an NBA fan. I didn't have. I had one NBA jersey that was Penny Hardaway. Damn which one it had? The blue? Uh one? Magic got blue? Like blue whatever?
Yeah, I watched both. I just love college basketball because just the game too. Bro, you could build your own school, yeah, I mean cheating taking alabam Man all the way to the championship.
But like I just keep going on and on about players, Like even when I was younger, I wouldn't have Fab five, dude, Like I ain't watch it yeah, I didn't watch, but like right after like Iverson came, then I used to watch ed Coda and then like I want to go to Carolina.
I used to watch I can't remember his name and I met him.
Ben Carter and Jamison used to play with them on march.
Man the fat point guard from Yukon. Yeah.
I used to look at Ben Gordon. Ben Gordon's hooping. The nineteens used to be like damn.
Yeh, Rudy Gay.
I sucked with Rudy game legend like all of them.
I used to be watching the McDonald's game like Buddy going up, Like when Steve Friends was at Maryland on Marsh Madison was the coldy what elite. My dad loved college basketball. He used to like love a hot so like my careated Scooty PM. I remember watching it like kill, like people would know who Scooty Pin was.
That Nigga was a dog, Yeah he was. Michaelrea was one of the underrated players in the NBA too.
Steve Frank was so nasty in Maryland like I used to watch him. I used to watch you, said Nick Collinson, kirk Hinri too.
What was the white was nice?
It was the crash out, hold on, what's my boy in La?
No?
No, the white boy.
Steve Blake, Steve Blair, like, but they had a white dude.
Can you go to the Maryland team back when they had Steve Blake and Want Dixon and they had a white dude.
I think he was like number thirty three. He was cool to DeMar was a lefty two thousand and two thousand and one.
Maybe, yeah, he was a left He ain't make it to the league, but I used to fuck with him on the game too, Like he was cool when his name pop up, And I'm gonna be hyped because I used to play the guy I used.
To fuck with the boyfriend. She stayed to the lefty wing. Uh see their lesson?
Nah, they too, you know, younger than me. Damn. I can't remember talking about Hodge Jewish Hodge for sure? He was white. Yeah, nah, just name something white boysbody else is black.
No, maybe it's a little bit after that, nah, maybe a couple of years later than No, like a couple of years later.
He might have just played ron cephas. Yeah, these are all niggas.
Your I think his name started with a M like mac something two thousand Yeah, go like two thousand and three oh three. That's crazy, man, How that established stable like that? Like we looked forward to that ship and people made a name off.
That time period.
Even if you didn't make it nowhere, you were still somebody because you killed in the tournament.
Kids going through the listeners five ship even I'm trying to think of some UK players.
Joe Crawford, Joe, Jody Meeks. Jody was my here All American team. Jody Meeks was a fucking budget the same Dave and II. Man, hell not dunked on him. You did five everybody on this team two thousand, you do two thousands one.
I'm finding no worry about because that's a crazy highlight when I dunk, you know why. So I like, I don't like that that, I don't care. But the whole game he was talking Ship. It was a senior night, so he's talking crazy, like you know, it was one of the better teams in the country at that time, but they had like our number a little bit, like we never played good against Maryland, so they start the game.
He was playing good. It was senior night. He was having a moment.
I ain't gonna like he was playing good as fucking He was like a fat, chubby no offense. He just wasn't a hoop, like you don't think him as a hooper. So he was having a good night and he was taking charges the whole game, you know what I mean. He stepped in taking charge and we like, man, he's undercutting us and ship. So when I was rip baseline and win and I punched on him, I'm like, yeah, bitch, don't start going crazy and ship and his game was fucked up that when I tell you he was having a moment on see you, I'm telling he probably had twelve in the first six eight minutes.
It was. I punched on him.
It was right, you're talking nights crazy, Yeah, fucked up here night. Fuck Maryland the university, not the state. But that's even though they ain't in a Big ten now man, even though I like your young freshman on that team.
Yeah he nights but still fuck y'all.
My boy Jeff Green was called to Georgeown. Jeff Green was a nasty wingman. Yeah, I can't talk about Austin Freeman from I think from that DC area.
He played on d C. It's up.
Yeah, she was wrong.
Uh, speaking of college basketball, all you got to do head coach West Virginia there in the rise wherever that is.
He's from the Midwest.

You know what I'm saying, good luck to you. Hopefully not get well soon, because that's typically happens. It is au job too like or they asking for too much from their coaches.
Money all that money involved. Now, so ship, somebody got to go.

Who was going to Houston before Kevin Sampson got there.
It may not have been on top, but Houston has something to give.
But it was a place for a lot of transfers. It had nothing to give. It was a transfer school.
I'm in Houston, now you going to are you? They them kids like damn, this is Bloomington, Indiana.
Nah.
But I'm saying, like before Kevin Sampson getting there, they got a top team recruit going on Houston. Yeah, on top teen recruit. It was all I sit the bench at some school when I transferred to Houston, you know what I mean. But you got top five dudes going top ten.
Let's see what you're saying.

What's up.
Oh, it's hilarious. I'm going And what's what's so crazy about the Indiana schools? And in particular, like we have some of the best talent as far as high school basketball in the world and they can barely like win Indiana.
I think that that's crazy.
Yeah, if Indiana was a Nike school, more kids would go there from here. Oh facts, But that's the part about it. But it's just the way they the vanity behind it is just it even never was a Nike school. It's just the way they present ship. Like you said, they had the fire fear of Guy set up.
And they don't.
Yeah, he was the fear of God, you know what I mean, Like, why wouldn't you want that collaboration?
Like Miami Ship was fire heat like it's just different. I don't know, but shout out to them. Yeah, man, well listen, man, this fan base is not gonna give you no favorites. But there you go to.

I probably yo, you really think I'm a bit? That's crazy, Like I think it's hilarious.
So that's what Blake Griffin did.
I don't know, but on the court he probably said someone did somebody ain't like. And I love Blake Griffin. I got Blake Griffin one of the coolest dudes. Shout to Blake that you can ever mean, he's a super cool dude. But he probably just did something I ain't like. Yeah, he and I probably was on that you was looking at him crazy and then you pointed anybody walked away. It was fucking hilarious. Shout to probably had because the nigga Blake used to be that nigga you. You know you not fucking with him, stop, like especially when you was on the nets. Nigga, your needs was like my and your needs is you got a little bit?
Yeah, what do you doing? Yeah? You wilding? Yeah he just found out the game too, so with it, get your money's work, Blake, like t oh t A, I roll myna t A t A, come do the show man I rolled for you. I don't even know you was on that.
He looks like he died.
Any want to get up with something, Blake, because why you're on the ground, what did you do?
But no, you didn't have to do all that. So I do remember that play he would out on t A. But I remember that play he wild out on t A.
He was bugging. But my teammates.
The one thing I'm gonna do, I like if I'm in the room, like well, we became teammates basically, So something happened to y'all. I'm gonna go crazy like we somewhere and the nigga push, I'm like, yo, I'm gonna turn the funk up. And I have been around here for four or five weeks now, and like that was unnecessary.
Like you know what I mean, what you're doing damn while we while were doing that, I got, I got that was damn.
Blake was Blake good Brooklyn.
He was talking to k Are you went past it.
I don't know what's good on.
That's I remember what KT said. He said, what you doing? You don't mean leave it on that. I said that, Look.
That boy, Blake, I know why he was crashing out. I had nothing to do with.
What's side and that going from Nono that ship crazy on me? What's funny about that? They was laughing. It was just like damn. After the Nickson words name, everybody went up. Draymond was like a cat just walked in the tone. I was like, man, you're supposed to take his hand after that game, Drake mind just gave you all forget we love where my niggas said. I heard a sixteen the back house and said, fuck you damn. Shout to Joe Harris Man like what I've heard, Yeah, you owe me one? My need my twenty.
That was a five thousand dollars because I had one earlier. Mura, I need my money back. Oh that's tough.
Five thousand.
KD made me laugh though. He was like, y'all losing what you y'are? Damn thirty You in the game. I was like, Damn, I am in the game. You know what you're technic professional?
Had an NBA.
Thirty thirty five. They just say eleven.
Oh damn, that's a big gap, nigga, Now what are you working with them? People?
I love it. I have some questions though, I mean, you got the most sex week Timberwolves. He got the record explode. I didn't had that many with Atlanta. I had a lot with the Timberwolves. Yeah, Fordlana, Yeah, Ford Alana. The Timberwolves do they cost the same every time they go up the year, the more you get in the year. So if your first one a second.
Rash Wallace, the niggas lost a lot of money. My boy gave back him.
Dwight Howard.
Remember when Dwight got suspended from Jamon a lot of money. Luca, Damn Luca be getting him like that was going crazy. A couple of years ago. Wow, my first tick ever in NBA was a Sebastian till it was beating the ass that's up in the game. As a rookie, I'm guarding him. He was playing in Minnesota. He made a move. I guard him.
Will you know how nigga y'all don't know. Y'all don't know.
But when you're a rookie, niggas just try you for no reason, like Nigga, fuck out of here. Niggas ain't good nigga. He like I locked him up. We get to the bottom of the under the rim.
He just pushed me. Nigga. I was like, the fuck the fuck is you're doing. He's like, Nigga, fuck you up.
Nigga can't walk in new Nigga.
Nigga, You're done. Yeah, yeah, out of here. Nobody even believe you. I liked you when he was in high school, Like you know what I mean. Now we're just talking like God, fuck you up, nigga. And Josh Smith like, no, that nigga really crazy. Like I go to the bus like, no, that nigga crazy. He was like, you ain't no holdo, but that nigga crazy. Then you know, I'm thinking, I'm not even know you lose money.
So I get to the bench.
Jamal Crawford like, man, he talking to that nigga. We beating him about thirty He just lost twenty five hundred, nigga, what like that nigga.
What he like they find you when you get text hell like this, nigga, we beat y'all about thirty. Why are you fucking with me? It's all good? That's twenty five hundred. That's a sick ass fine.
Yeah, I was pissed and they had different back then. That was my rookie deal, nigga, that's a he just he just took away my trip to medic City. Maye know you with the comments were tied to team talking about his rookie year, like he was working at the factory.
I said, your rookie year, your face skin was more than for you. Not at the mall. It wasn't though, because you got to think you got a budget and you coming from a.
I was coming from an environment where we ain't had no money like that. So somebody saying, yo, you got three thousand dollars a month to do what you want. That shit sound like.
A lot to you on a road every day and you going somewhere.
You a gazillionaire.
Yeah, three thousand dollars, You use that so fast. That's a trip to the store. You go to the store and buy a few.
Yeah, three thousand dollars a month. That that is tough in your lifestyle what like it was crazy for you to be able to manage that.
Though, because that was what I needed. You know, my parents be like, you don't need much. That wasn't like include my bills and shit.
So it was like just for you to spend three thousand every month, you just go out get some you know, buy some shoes, get some clothes.
Whatever you want to do. I'm like, all right, for sure that ship started, like oh I eight because.
Because you was in Atlanta, like you tall, the kind of you've probably been different.
Luckily my rookie year, I had great bets, so I never had to pay for them, Like if I went out to the club, if I wanted clothes, it gave me the per diem.
So it wasn't for me to buy shoes.
And I wore Nike shit all the time, like they bought me suits and ship when I needed to do.
So it was like cool.
But thig, I thought three thousand was a lot to like the middle of the season, I'm like, damn one table, it's fifteen hundred, that's my that's half of my month, like, which is crazy.
And that's in a comfortable city. You wasn't in New York. You were in La No.
Fifteen fifteen thousand.
As you as you get up, Mike, why are you watching it? I'm watching objective.
I swear if that rookie ru your video has a billion views, I gave it a billion. That's one of my favorite videos.
Of all time.
Bro, every time I got ejected, I was like hooping. I was having great ass. I know, I was hoping it was it was a third quarter.
Why was you crashing out?
I don't know, Bro, I told you, I just had these moments Rogers. What happened? I don't even know this one? That ain't me what they just got the title? Damn. I don't know. I just have moments where igers. That is funny, but fuck everything.
But can you remember a teammate that you had that had a lot of texts that you played with the Nigga.
And Johnson had a lot of texts my dog, Yeah, yeah, a lot. I can believe that. Josh Smith had a lot of texts, Oh yes, move talk crazy to a referenced Yeah, I can see that. Yeah, a lot of to.
Day smooth man. Did you see uh Morris Smith? He went on the podcast talking about dor more. Basically, he was just like, I can't trust der Moore because this man is using AI to make decisions about basketball.
Damn for real.
Yeah, he basically said, like BT to construct.
This Rocks based on analytics and ship Oh yeah, yeah.
There are a lot of people, but a bunch of the game though. No, that was that happened with the Minnesota timber Wolves. Literally analytics for everything.
I told you. I got the reason I got traded because I shot a Miry rage jumper.
I don't remember.
I came in the locker room. We're down at We're going into half and I had to shoot it. The shot clock was going on and I shot range jump shot and I actually made it, and I'm having a decent game. Going to the locker room, you kind of can hear people yelling we down. You can hear people yelling back and forth.
He was like, you just don't want to fucking buy in. I'm gonna get his ass out of here. I'm like, what the fuck is who I'm thinking? The coaches.
I'm like, as we walk out, coach tells me, come on, jeff Man, you just have to buy in, Like the fucking what, Like we don't play defense?
So the worst d team in the league. What the we talk about defense for?
He was like, man, you shoot those floaters in these mid range shots, like step behind the line, shoot the three. And I didn't shoot a bunch of three. I wasn't like a volume three point shooter. That's what hurt me a little bit. As I got older, I started shooting three. I got the mid Boston, I shot three. But if I would have shot ten threes a game in Minnesota, they would have been happy. That just wasn't me at that time. I came in the league at a different time. I just didn't transition to that yet. They were just like, yeah, we gotta get you the funk out of here, like you're not part of what we want to go. And I used to just think, like, I hope Minnesota lose every fucking I forgot the dude that was a GM name.
He came from.
He came with from Darryl Morey and all the coaching trip. Yeah, so he came from that whole GM thing. That's what they thought, analytics, more threes, play ups, and free throws. So I just when I left, every time Minnesota lost, like I just went out and had a great time.
I did.
I used to be like the game upro it did Bro and Lot eliminate a lot of people's positions that were good basketball players. Yeah, like we talked about damn, what's the dude he played for the Mattis right now geographer. Yeah, let's kill his game because he would have been skilled, could still tribute, but didn't shoot.
So it was like, fuck it, my lord, analytics murdered people. Game. It took that was analytics took me out.
Not really, yeah, needs took me, but but analytics kind of it kind of made the game weird, like because it's like Chris Paul is one of the best mill range point guards and ever, and you see him when people who don't go off of analytics, like well, okay, see just start letting Chris ball be Chris Paul again and he's shooting them mid range shots and he being great and they team win twelve fifteen more games because of him. It's like, y'all, analytics is offah, like it might be a better shot whatever, but he just won fifteen more games doing what he do. It's just like my eyes tell me the truth. There we go, like my eyes, my eyes tell me the truth. Like analytics is cool. I watch Charlotte Ja shoot a hell of threes and I watch it and it's bad. But then you watch Boston and shoot sixty threes and it's like, but then you.
Watch Okay, see you watch Shaye mar Derosen who it's different.
Now.
I was gonna should be here if Sga didn't avere started he averaged sixteen where they feel difer from the back him taking as many me at rand shots as he does.
Of course they would, yeah, because he'll be fucking the game up.
But then you watch Boston and they winning these games shooting sixty threes, and it's like they getting more threes up than us. How can we beat a team because if they get hot and they go thirty eight for sixty, you don't have a fucking chance, your cooks.
Because what they shot seventy when we did play.
Back, it was twenty and didn't get a fuck.
Yeah, And it's just like analytics tell you that that's a better shot. But when my eyes tell me, it's like Jason Tatum can get to the basket while you're sixteen. You can take this little dude to the basket. And that's why my eyes tell me and that's when the playoffs start. My eyes is gonna tell me a lot. That's why I'm scared what the Lakers can possibly do because Brin don't play analytics. He showed he shoot more threes than he ever did nowt but that's what age too. But when it's like time to get to it, bron to take your ass to the basket. Yeah, and that's where it's gonna get interested in the playoffs.
Know man, because Boston, that's what.
We watched. We watched Drew Holiday had wild open lifts and could have dunk sitting No. Three three balls.
He looked like Terry Rose out.
He was doing. He did the Ben Simmons one time. Yeah, kicked it out.
He did that.
We like shoot the left. He kicked it out for a three.
So it's being a pioneering analytics or did he freeze up in the moment, because now he freezed up in the moment we got six sixteen. You had a lot of fro He was just earlier the way y'all wasn't that there yet.
But he kicked it.
He kicked it to another nigga shoot free throw. Yeah, he would have kicked it for a three out been like, you might be on or something. That nigga kicked it to another nigga to shoot the free throws. Well, he could have just dunked it.
But I can't want to see the type of year he have next year.
Why do y'all keep saying that's right now?
It's bro he ain't right now.
Yeah, Clippers' having I'm having a really good time.
Man.
My note is empty. He's not.

He's like, oh, you know about me and Evan don't play. I'm like, why ya don't play? They told us we can only play fourteen minutes.
He was like that's it. I'm like, Damn, they told you that. He was like yeah. He was like, you about to have that meeting.

Did you play over that? Literally? That was it? You averaged eighteen point two minutes. I'm not lying. Roy Parker averaged thirteen point eight. I'm not lying. Bro. Y'all think I make this shit up. I don't make it up. Bro. They literally told me.
It was like, you won't go under or you're gonna be right there. I said, I like, so I can have I could just be having a night, and he was like, brother, I wonder why that is though, But you know what, was developing a young dude.

My boys should have been, top fifteen. They was hating. They wouldn't they wouldn't let you hoop. And I understood it. I got it.
They were trying to develop the young guys who at the time it was trade cam DeAndre, Kevin Hurder, John Collins.
They had all these young dudes.
I'm like, cool, shout a chilling Parsons.
He gotta check. Never came to the gym legend.
He is a legend.
I ain't believe him. At first, I'm like, no, They're like, you're about to sign back. So when I first got there, Atlanta offered me extensions. Soon as I got there, like, yo, we're gonna seeing you for the next year.
We wanna do it.
So I'm like, you know, talking, y'all really fucked my money up, Jabari Evan all them because I could have just signed the next you know, the one year deal and I've been locked in.
It was like six million, five or six million or something.
Damn bro.
So when I was there, I'm like, yeah, you know what I mean, I was waited out.
We didn't know COVID was about to happen.
So we're like, ah, you because I was killing and I was having a good games out in Minnesota off the bench. I was after like thirteen fourteen, so they like that's quality off like off the pond. Boy, you know you're gonna get more than that. And then he was like, going to Atlanta really gonna hurt you. You're gonna be a good six man. So I should have signed it. Yeah yeah, but they like they are like, man, you probably get you know, we ain't know COVID was gonna happen. But anyway, they was like, you don't want to come back to the ship. And when I was playing nineteen minutes, I ain't want to come.
Back to that shit.

That jersey?
I think he read. I think I think he was one. I think Evan was one. It was a Boston and we played Boston and he actually played good.
Wow.
I think I passed it to him. He hit a shot at like the end of the quarter one time, and I was like damn. And that's when we got super cool, right there, at that moment.
Right there. Then I went to Boston and.
We just became y'all locked in in the A I thought, y'all locked in.
We got super cool. I mean, we knew each other from high school, but we got super cool in Atlanta because it was just like that three weeks I got with him before he got traded, he was just real.
And then we got the Boston. It was easy for shure Man.
