I didn't start playing to like high school, going to my junior year, so like this school and go to the park and just hoop so damn. And then somebody rode by and seen us playing and said, y'all want to play on my AU team.
And that's how I got cracking. That's hard, bro, that's different.
I ain't gonna lie.
And then I got like my first year, I got into like the A, B, C, D and all that, But I end up going because I didn't really know too much about it.

The guy said, yeah, he about to get us all some.
Three that.
I'm like, you know what, you like about to get this ship going, and took off. He couldn't make it yourself.
Everybody line up, Oh my god, he's all together ship.
I remember playing y'all at this time, and Randy Foyd was on your team.
Okay, okay, okay.
So I'm like, I s they like yo, they could score and these both I had to guard Nick Randy for they gave me buckets, bro off for screens, nigga. I'm like, y'all said they were sad before the everybody like, yeah, these niggas suck man, these got something, these niggas coming off screens killing.
I'm like, y'all said these niggas were sad.
They're like, well, they ain't that sad? Sad in the month because these niggas was killing, there was my welcome to the NBA moment, bro Igga's coming off.
Bro, we were saying, but because we was losing this chance to go off.
Ready for it?
Gave me the blues.
Bro. I was like, what the funk I said, they sucked? We won, but kill me before he slept on. So sure, but welcome to the NBA moment for Shure for sure.
Before he came to the Wizards, I think after the Wizards, everybody pretty much get Let's think about everybody that came after the Wizards, especially Andre Blush ain't been the same. You don't see Blash shot to my thig.
The case case mental abuse.
Got long enough, for sure, Blashes disappeared. Don't want to be seen another you never want to be seen? Yes, want to be seen. Blash was supposed to be one of the ones.
Bro.
That's so crazy, like you said, no, thinking about it all, y'all, left and one champion places you went.
To was successful ring somewhere else. That's crazy. So how was that finally leaving watching to get in the more stable situation? It was good.
It was fression because you like see what like a real franchise is about, like from like the way they do breakfast practice, the owners talk to you different. It's it's different. It ain't like I guess because we were losing.
Gil was her.
He wasn't practicing like he wasn't Gil Gill like turn around Gill.
So he was.
Rehabbing every day trying to find stuff to do. So yeah, man, it was tough. So when I got to LA, playing with like cold coach, different coach was like the first person. They're always on the training table again treatment or something. He was just always in the gym, first person there.
That's crazy.
And speaking to Kobe man one of my favorite moments, y'all going back practice, Man, that's one of my favorite clips. Man, how was at the battle with like somebody like of that legend like and you from l A too, So the legend was already there. You can really go at him at a time where they wouldn't y'all wouldn't the best. So y'all really got to get y'all shit off.
Man, that was fun. It's like in practice, like he wouldn't practice. He would just tell us about it, tell us, tell us about us, Like, man, if I play, I seen you left, you can't.
Go that way.
So when he finally got out there, I was like, yeah, this's our time, because he always just talking trash. Yeah, how you gonna get better practicing with y'all? I said, damn, that's a cold line.
He said that for me.
So when he got out there finally, oh yeah. It was fun though, but I think Jeremy Lane got like the worst of that, like Germany Lane got like the worst he was getting.
Yeah, it's funny because that could have been your timate. Like no, he told me that.
He said, uh, in the middle of the game, So why you got me out here with this ship?
And I said what.
He said, you left me out here with this ship and he pointed at Jermy Lynn. I'll never forget that. I said, damn.
Oh, so that was supposed to be you instead of Germany.
Nosed to be I told him, na.
Ship.
He was like, I can go to the Lakers and said go now.
I said, no, I'm cool. I told him please. It was new. I was like I had the next I had, like all the big cities.
I didn't want to go.
I wanted to go to Indiana. Like every time I want to get treated, I want to go back home. But at that time, they was like, you're gonna trade you to the Lakers.
I was good at that time. Yeah, that was good.
When I got dirty, I sucked it up room the locker room, but went to minus on two K. But but if y'all would have looked up in La, that would have been crazy. I had a time, sure, for sure. My favorite moment for you was when you was on the Clippers.
Bro.
Y'all had that series. Man, y'all was hoping. Bro, it was like it was dope to watch, dope to see I'm like, damn, and the way you you know, you you kind of like me, you kind of goofy, you have fun with ship. So after the games, you having a ball like like you know what I mean, I'm.
Like, he brings some life to the Clippers. Bro have to be away from Washington. I got.
Me in the playoffs and I'm we coming back down twenty three year.
That was dope.
That was dope.
Yahre I was like, you know, Blake was You could tell Blake was like he was a little nervous, a little scared of the fucking I can't think of his name. Yeah, he was a little scared of Zebra. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie here to z Bo. So we got damn fast. I'm like, man, it's we started looking at the bench like, man, start time. You know, you know when the starting unit losing, like man, you know he could shoot the shots.
We want to sh.
It's our time. They need us right now. So yeah, that was one of those moments in the playoffs. So I felt good because you know, when you come off the bench and the team is balling, you don't want to be that guy that messed up.
But that's that's pressure right there.
Where you had most fun at though, with the Lakers of the Clippers. What was you able to be really swaggy at with the Lakers of the Clippers? I said, Lakers, hey, I remember your turn around the miss.

But then we started doing five and five like we was beating people so bad. He was doing five man five out our minutes. Was like, yeah, I only played twenty eight minutes a game, like you know what I mean the starting guarden for like thirty for so I was only playing that transferred in the first round. Now we won the first round we made when y'all ran into always we because it's bron that nigga said, I got, I swear to guy all started.

Eventually I gotta switch bag me down, get to the free throw line, shoot over me. If somebody helped throw to j R. Smith three, throw it to Kevin Love three.

I had just got there, me and my little brother had just got there like an hour before. But it was cool though we deserved that loss. I'm glad y'all lost them. How is that first year in a victory?
You said? Be glad?

But now your team was dope this year though, Like watching y'all play then to see you actually really cared off coaching that ship was funny hell. When you broke the clipboard and Ship, I'm like, this nigga really was hot.

Car Man.
But to see you, to see that reaction, Bro, I was like, okay, win, yeah with that. I it's tough though your first year the Big Three, like you try.
To find your to like go out there and play cool. Hearing s much.
It is hard. Bro.
Now I was.
I was trying to be like I couldn't really get the feeling for it.
Then when i see people were trying to go at me, I'm like, well, fuck it, I'm gonna just start open. So it was cool. It's cool to be competitive, though.
Then you get I feel like you're out there everybody just watching you and Ship.
There's a lot of pressure, Micron.
It used to be like this back then.
So but it's hope to see the progression of the league though.
I'm saying, like pioneered with it to where it is now, especially going to the next season, having the cities and stuff you're gonna lock in.
That's gonna be fun. It's gonna be fun for sure, for sure, can't wait. I know you'all gonna get better though, what y'all doing next year?
We got some people on them, We got some people on yeah, some people.
Now, some people just had called me.
Man.
It surprised me. You don't want to get embarrassed now. It was on the way seven to like living at one point.
Listen, bro we wasn't even. We wasn't even. I wasn't coming. They you wasn't there, man.
I wasn't.
I think I think I had a point. I wasn't about to show up. They like fly the same. I'm like saying, y'all even have it big that day. I'm from Indiana to Portland boy on the same day. And then who I ain't really built for that, but I did it for the league. I fun with them, so I got yall. We got all y'all get the it's the best team on that day, the best team. I wanted to rematch, but we didn't get a chance to play. But y'all messed us up because after that we thought he was so good. We just like, man, he the best team. Then we lost three straight after that. Ass Damn she got spoken.
Yeah, feated, so that like messed us up when we lost our first game.
You know how to be covered by listen. We just had tomorrow on the show. We talked about the Drew League. Know what I'm saying, obviously you go crazy and that for US basketball fans, we appreciate it so much because we get to see like niggas in the league.
Man, I get to get their roles like they but we know y'all and get for you. That's show time. Just that feeling just gonna play the Drew with that being home and everything.
H Drew used to be cracking.
I remember like I'll get to the me and tomorrow get to the championship game. Then we end up have to play James and James Harden versus PG. Like they just stack their teams like this ship was cracked, like you have all the l A and in one spot and everybody there the line outside. It was crazy. It was fun.
Man.
I didn't win.
I didn't win my first one to I've been to like five championships and lost all of them to but one. I don't want to James and don't stop playing at James and PG is come on, man.
Then it was tough, yeah, said the playoff rosters looked a little different, Yeah, for sure.
So but nah, it's been cracking. But I ain't been up there in a minute.
You know, some of the everybody getting older, so it's gonna be it's gonna take from the young LA guys to go there, and it's like turn it up to turn it back up.
But yeah, talking anybody just play in there like that's been in the league. Like say, if you got a raw squad and I might be the number three player in the NBA, can I just come run with you?
Or is it like politics?
It depends if he won't you. You know, some people come and get embarrassed. You gotta freaking any of the rooms, like two people NBA career all the time, everybody, So damn. I remember when James Jack came cold. He scored like two points or something like that, and the drew. But it wasn't because he got shut down. He's just missing. But they was talking trash. They be on the mic talking. You know, he's a different back and forth with the dude. You gotta be it's different. Then you got dudes from the hood over there talking ship.
That's crazy.
Yeah, y'all got something like that Indiana.
Uh, you used to. We used to. We don't got it no more. We used to.
We used to, Like you said, it's kind of like the older guys stuff, kind of the younger dieration got to pick it up take the heights. But I think the colase we had unfortunate everybody had doing that lockout time.
