Honey said dot to turn yea, you you gotta turn the turn turn you love me, got to turn out to turn the water the water go. Come come on your back, Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody, y'all listen to the voice. Come on dig me now. One and only Steve Harby Man got a radio show. M Yeah, I do. Man. God been so good to me over the years, in spite of all the mistakes I've made, in spite of all the dirt I've done to myself. I'm talking about when, in knowing I was wrong, His grace and mercy has forgiven me for all of my sins, all of them. God can forgive you of all of your sins, everything you've done. God can forgive you. He can wipe your slate clean. Now that might you might have some you know, things you got to deal with because of some of your actions. Understand that. But you can wipe your slates. You can wipe your slate clean with God and start again. You can repent. God has mercy and grace. You could be forgiven by God. Now, people answer another story. Some people may never forgive you, for you've heard them all, or maybe they're accusing you of doing something else. But you know they may never forgive you. But God, God is in the redemption business man. God will forgive you for every sin you've ever committed. But you gotta want forgiveness now. And then you got to come correct because what you can't do is you can't shoot him the crap. Now you can say that conversation with him. You know what, whatever you told your lawyer, whatever, whatever you told the victims, whatever you told whatever the story is, you got going if it ain't the truth, you could say that with God, because please know, he know, and he know your heart. He know if you're trying to manipulate somebody just for the system, if you're trying to say this just so you can get out, you know all of that. So if you're planning on shucking him and having it, save your breath, before you wind up digging yourself in a deeper hole. Just just let me give you that piece of advice. Because he has nothing to play with. He's too great to be played with. And so with that in mind, I want to share some positive stuff with you this morning. Man. I want to say this now. I want to remind you not to let your circumstance and your situations did dictate your future or your results. I'm gonna say this again. This is important information. Man. Don't let your circumstance and situations dictate your future or your results. Do you know that in order to get a different future or some different results, you control that entire situation. It is you, It is your thoughts that control the entire situation. It is how you look at the situation that will determine how the situation is for you. See, the same situation can be totally different for two different people because you can say you look at the examples of history, just just look look in your neighborhood. How can There was a book that a guy wrote one time who had the name. He had a name, and he did some research and he found a guy that grew up at the same age in the same neighborhood as him, with the exact same name. He went on to become a corporate CEO. The other man was uh uh an inmate, and they had the same name, grew up in the same neighborhood. They were both brothers, you know not, I'm just saying brothers men. And and they grew and they went to different Because how can two different two people the same situation and the results turn out so different. It is because of the thought process of one was completely different from the thought process of the other. You control it. You don't have to let your circumstances and your situations dictate your future or your results. Here's the way it works. This is so you can understand this. Your mind. It's the controlling factor of your thoughts. Your thoughts are the controlling factor of your outcome. The Bible says a man is as he thinketh. Please don't short play this scripture here, because this one is the real deal. This is the basis of every self improvement book you'll ever read. It's already written in the Bible. The Bible has all the information you need. But in case you need a little bit of clarity in some simple modern day language, then they have self improvement books. They are all based on Biblical scripture. A man is as he thinketh. That's why Norman Vincent Peale wrote the book The Power of Positive Thinking. That's why a book came out called The Magic of Thinking Big. That's why a book came out called Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hell. All of you. All these titles that I've read that have mattered in my life the most, These three major books that I've read, they all say one thing. Think thinking thoughts, because that's what controls the outcome. Your brain works one of two ways. It works positive or negative. It works good, which is under the column of positive, or the work evil, which is under the column of negative. It will have faith, which is under the column of positive, or you will operate in fear, which is in the column of negative. That is the only way your mind works. Your mind is a factory that's comprised of workers. Those workers are controlled by two formings, forming positive and forming negative. But guess what the CEO of the company, the headman, the ball boss is you. You come to work in the morning and you say, man, today is a great day. I'm going to take steps towards brightening my future. I'm going to take another step into making that dream come true that I've been thinking about. I'm gonna take another step forward in the development and the changing of my life in a positive, good direction. If you come to work and say that every day as the CEO, the boss, the foremans can only obey you, so that what you just said was a series of positive statements, then forming positive steps to the forefront. He said, I got your boss right away. He turns around, he blows the whistle. He alerts all the workers in the factory. Today is a good day. Today we will take steps towards our future. Today we are putting ourselves on track to get a little bit closer to making our dreams come true. Today we will be assembling all the things we need to make got dreams come true in our life better in the right direction. Everybody break. The workers in the factory turn around and manufacture thoughts to justify the orders given by the boss, which is you. You are the CEO of your corporation. If you don't own nothing else, you own everything that's going on between your two ears. You are the CEO of that corporation. If that corporation is a good one, it's because you set it up that way. If your corporation is a bad one, it's because you set it up that day. If you try, and if you pushing towards your dreams and you see the possibility of things happening in your life, is because you, as the CEO, set it up that way. If you ain't got nothing popping, if you just want to be a criminal taking stuff from people, throwing your life out the window, you're gonna be an inmate. You're gonna be sitting there there and you're gonna be mad at everybody. You got nobody be mad at. But shoot, you understand what I'm telling you this morning. This is the way it is. The Bible says a man is as he thinketh. You are the CEO of a corporation. You can make it happen good, or you can make it happen evil. You can make it happen possible or positive, or you can make it happen negative. You can live a life feel with faith, or you can live your life and feel. You have to make the decision this morning, but you can turn your corporation around today. All you got to do is start today. Change the way you think a man is as he thinketh Man. God wants you to know that because God wants you to put positive thoughts in your mind, because God wants you to do better, be better, have more, and be more. God loves you, man, and there is not a whole lot you can do about that. God gonna love you. If you do dirt. God gonna love you if you do good. Might as well do good and see what God can bless you with. Man, How about that this morning, y'all. Huh, you're listening to show. Ladies and gentlemen.

The guys are going to talk about it inside something Funny. We get back at thirty two after the hour. Right right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. It is time for something funny, guys. Okay, last night was Game two of the NBA Finals Finals, the Calves versus the Warriors. Of course, but Lebron James infamous Game one short suit, that whole ensemble. We've we learned that it costs forty six thousand dollars. Yeah, yeah, everything. You guys remember when Lebron got mad at the press conference when one reporter asked him about j R. Smith's fiasco and Lebron they just kept asking him and asking him quite a mind. Yeah, you know, Lebron just got up grabbed his man bag. That's yeah, like Cheryl Underwood, he just stormed out of the press conference. He left like pastor trip. But did he have it under his reassured that it was was it? Did he grab it with his hand? It wasn't only his risk and I wasn't walking out. He grabbed it manly. Yeah, but I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree with the all of what's going on. I thought it was straight g You know, I don't have the legs for them shot. And it's an age limit to that too. I think he's right at the cusp before he's allowed to do that. Two more years, Bran will be able to do that. I thought the outfit would pimping the bag with Gangster the forty six thousands. I don't know where y'all got that phone, but that would be the band, I assume. Then the bag straight Gator, Okay, that don't look like I think the bottom part of those pants was in that bag. Sea the tailor. You know, if you're looking for real, for real, then rock the couple of bags. I've seen a couple of people rock airmen's bags. I thought about it, but I only saw one that I liked, but I probably wouldn't. I wouldn't do that because my girl wears on the line, so I wouldn't do in their men's bag. But that's not necessarily airmen bag. It could have been something else too though, but it was actually definitely a Gator bag. Okay, Now here's the question who on the show amongst the guys would wear this outfit? Who you think? Jay? So you gotta go to to Steve Harvey FM on all social media, Okay and see our very own j Anthony Brown. He is rocking the same exact suit as Lebron. How do you feel about you got the labron? They feel about what I'm let me look at your describing for Steve here. First, I want you to know that j Anthony Brown, he's a fool for him to even do it. First of all, he put on the jacket to tie, he got a bag, He got the short so, he got the shoe boots, he got the glass. The bag is not the same one Lebron head and I think it's Lebron soup Jay, buton took two people to button it. One person was hugging in the clothes to jack and make it touch and the other person got it button right after this though, right after this, I can assure you something wrong that well, I'm telling you that button looks like they could pop off and kill something. Did pop out? Man, that button hit my window, my bedroom window. Crack. That button fired off. Okay, let the shot done. That's dangerous. So let's break it down. Okay. So it's a Tom Brown New York suit. That's what it was that lebron had on. Uh, tying handkerchief. Tying handkerchief were a little more than hundred dollars. The shirt was in handkerchief, and the suit and the suit. Okay, yeah, the shirt was just over three hundred. The shorts came in at under a thousand, So I thought, sure, you described me. I don't understand. Okay, the Tom Brown New York suit and handkerchief and the suit and the suit to the suit tie and handkerchief. You mean the shorts the jack at the tie. So then it says the shorts came in at under a thousand dollars, so that was extra. The boots and the socks were thirteen eighty. The boots and the socks with eight. So people are asking what costs so much? Obviously it was the bag and it's made of it was alligator. Yeah, so that's what costs so much. I achieved that name looks for eleven dollars. Jays looked for less. Jay's dress for less, so go So where did they go? Steve Harvey Film. Yes, Steve Harvey FM. Go to Steve Harvey Film right now and you can see your comparison to Jay's outfit and lebronze outfit. And the question is, yeah, who rocked it best? For eleven dollars?

The Time says the letter says that the group does not need to speak to the commander in chief and that he does not have to talk to them, and the attorneys also say Trump cannot be accused of obstructing justice because as the country's chief law enforcement officer, he would be obstructing himself, say. The letter also says the president could terminate the prob or issue pardons wherever. The newest member of the Trump team, Rudy Giuliani, says that could be dangerous moves. It could lead to impeachment it could lead to I mean, if he terminated an investigation of himself. Giuliani was on NBC's Meet the Press.

He's gonna host the NBA Final special Editional Sports Center on Game Days and I will be a special guest on that show Wednesday night of Game three. Pack dog on that Dog to the show. Gentlemen, Steven what something? What s? That might be the greatest intro I've ever had. Don't don't know ifody do it better than me. Stephen Haye. First man, let me just get your take on Game one, the end of it. Well, it was one of the most idiotic things that I've ever seen take place through sports. J R. Smith is not the reason they lost the game. George Hill hits the free throw. You're up one with less than five seconds. Class, you missed that free throw. You gotta hold him accountable for that. That bugus called reversal. Will Lebron draws the charge and then they go to the video tape and turn to into a blocking foul against the greatest player of this generation. Just absolutely asked nine. The NBA had no reason doing that. It was the wrong call, however, Jr. Smith to grab a reback and to run out not just past the three point lie, but damn near the half court. I mean, and I don't even know what to say. I don't believe there is an explanation. You gotta remember, you're not in the throes of action. A few seconds before you're at the free throw line. You get an opportunity to take a deep breath, get composed, and more importantly, look up at the clock and look at the scoreboard and noticed that the score is tied. More just mistake it was inexcusable. But then to make matters worse to just throw so just throw flames on the wound. This brother doubles down and said, I knew what the score was now because everybody, you mother, no, you're lying because we saw the video tape. Okay, And in this age of technology where there is HD, where you are allowed to zoom and where you are allowed to see exactly what a person is saying, this brother actually set up there and says, you know, while on the floor running towards half court. After Lebron looked at him like he wanted to slap him over the head. He said, I didn't know the school, That's what he said. But then he denied it and said, no, I knew the score, even though the video tape clearly showed it was the most hurtful thing. Steven, We'll be back with more, Steven A right after this. You're listening from Steven, all right. It's it's moments like Game one where you sit up there and you look at Lebron James and you say, you know what, not only is he the greatest player in the world today, but we're really gonna miss him when he's gone because as greate as his talent is, he never cheats us. He's always a big condition, always ready to go, always tries to bring it. And you know what the stool is, the cerebral as the company's a savant on the basketball court. He would never find himself in a situation where he was unprepared for the moment. He either gets it done or he doesn't get it done. But it's not gonna be for lack of preparation. When you're surrounded by guys that don't think nor act like you, it's really, really tough, which is why I think this is his last year in Cleveland. This Now, let's get to it. Because I happened to agree with you. I happened to also think Stephen A. Lebron James Ols Cleveland nothing. He paid his debt, he came back. He gave us a title. Just the other day on family feud, this young girl, they were from Cleveland, she had this huge ring on and I'm looking at it. I went, wait, let me see this ring she had on the Cavaliers two thousand sixteen championship ring because she was a cheerleader on the Cavaliers. The year they want. He has given us a ring. He owes us nothing else that is correct. I think he should go. Where is he going? It's hard to say right now, see because of the choices that he has. Let me give you the choices to break this down for you, because you would want to know this. Cleveland is a slim to none option. He gets an opportunity. He could do whatever he wants in Cleveland. I mean they bowed the altar Lebron James, so you could never completely rule it out because it's home for him. But I would say there's a slim and unchanty sting. Philadelphia is an option because they have enough cap space to get him and another player. Not to mention they already have Vin Simmons and Joel and b and they were a playoff team. Boston has the attent to get him if they want him, because I'm not so sure Kyrie Irvin is gonna stay there with his knee problems, okay. And on top of it all, they've got a requisite number of weapons where they can work outside and trade and take care of you. You got that going on out west, out west, you got they got, they gotta written, They got to renounce the rights to several players but it won't have to be James Harden obviously, and you could always read up with CP three. That's a consideration. I spoke to some people in Houston just yesterday. They said to me, we're getting to make a run at him. So they're gonna make a run of him. Okay, you have the Los Angeles Lakers with Magic Johnson that has faith not just for one, but for two players, mainly a Lebron James and a Paul George to pair with the Alondo balls, Julius Randall's, Kyle Ko's. But even though I think the Lakers will give up at least one or two of those guys just to make sure they have the requisite rooms because of max contractor Lebron next season start at four million, a max contract for Bull George next season starts at thirty five millions, and then last but not least, Even though I can't see this happening, even though I would vilify Lebron if this did happen, I am told that he will at least listen. The Golden State Warriors very clear have made it very very clear that you know what you gotta remember. Play Thompson. He's a free agent and twenty nineteen, Kevin Durant, he has a player option. Draymond and Steph are signed, but you could find a way to make room. If that is the case. I seen that happening. It's better not happen. But nevertheless, I wur told that it is a conversation that will take place that would be the worst if you can't beat them join him. Scenario I've ever seen in my life. So I totally agree with you, and it better not happen. But remember, if that would have happened, they can't keep them all, so they would get rid of a couple of the cats that they have in order to get him there. But I still say, hell, no, no, man, you can't go and play with the enemy. Hey, y'all stick around. We got more with Steven A. Smith right after this.

Okay, buggle up, hold on tight. We got it for you. It is the Strawberry letter, This ignorant show right here all right? Subject? Have I been acting bad and bougie? I did not write this letter is not about me, Stephen Shirley. I am a hair stylist and in the last few years I've built up a great clientele and I'm enjoying the fruits of my labor. I was able to buy a new car, and I purchased my first home, a nice home. I also have found love again with a great supportive man. So here's my problem, my professional life and my love life are going great, but my friendships are suffering. I've lost a lot of girlfriends in this past year. They are friends that I've known for a long time, and I thought they would be happy to watch me as I finally got my life on track. At first, I thought that maybe I was doing something to turn them off, but I never brag or throw my success in their faces. We used to meet up for lunch, dinner, and girls night out, but I've noticed that they've been doing a lot of stuff without me. I'm not sure what I've done to make them exclude me. Even my best friend became distant, so I invited her over and asked her what was going on. She told me that I think I'm better than everyone else. Now, anyone that knows me knows that I am very humble and I have a very big heart. I was shocked when she told me that, please help me understand what could possibly be going on with my friends. Maybe it is me. I am proud of my accomplishments, and I was hoping my friends would be too. My man is supportive, but I need my girlfriends. How can I fix this? Listen bad and Bougie. I'm proud of your accomplishments too. I really am Uh. This is what you're supposed to be doing with your life. This is what success looks like. How sakara prospering business, et cetera. You're in a great relationship now. I love how you say. You're still humble, You're not braggadocious. You don't throw your success in their faces. I mean, what more do they want? You sound like a young woman who's doing all the right things. Uh. And you are, like you said, enjoying the fruits of your labor. You work hard. Uh. Your your friends are haters. I'm just gonna tell you they're haters. Hate just doesn't look good on them. No, it is not you, it's them. They are jealous because doing well and they cannot to bring themselves to be happy for you. Uh. You know, I just say it's times like this when you find out who your real friends are, especially you're supposedly best friend. What's that about? She's a hater too. So this is a decision you're going to have to consider. Um, you know, do you still want these women around you that? Um? When they meet and they don't invite you, please know that they're talking about you. You're the entire topic of conversation, how you think they're you're better than them, and all that. I say, times change, circumstances change, people change, so you're going to have to change as well. Don't let these people make you doubt yourself. Don't make them feel badly. It is okay to be successful as long as you stay humble. Steve. Uh, well, it's so many ways to First of all, show I agree with everything you've said. That's for starters. You've pointed it out very eloquently, and they are haters. But the this thing you gotta learn is these not your friends. These just ain't your friends. They were your friends as long as you were in the same predicament they were in. Now we're friends. You know, birds of a feather flock together. Misery love company. As long as you was in misery, they was glad to be in your company. But the moment you have started prospering moving up, now here they come. They got problem. Now they're not your friends. I can't tell you how many people out of met like this. I can't count the people. Man who was cool with me long as I was paying Oh man, you're the greatest man. No man, Steve man, you this man. You know. Yeah, they're getting their check. The moment they stopped doing what they want to do in that checkstop. I ain't heard from I ain't heard man. I love you, You're my boy. I appreciate you now. I wish you the best. I love your friend him. Ain't heard from him. Don't hear from him, don't ever hear from him. So you you, you're you're going through what a lot of us go through. All of us have gone through it. It's called seasons of life. They were in your life for a season. This season is over. It's winner now. Yeah. You saw the movie game and throw when they're coming, when they're coming on the White Walkers too. Shirley was right. Crap in the bowl, that's all it is. You know, everybody ain't gonna be happy for yourself. Shirley was right again. See the one thing I've learned about success, it's not me who changes. It's people's opinion of me who has changed. People now think I think I'm all that? No dog, you think I think I'm all that, because that's how you act of you was here. Quit tripping with them, girls. It is time for you to move on in your life, you should not get yourself a new set of friends. Association brings on participation. I have found in my life. I have had to get different types of friends. I had to go find me some friends that don't want nothing every time I turn around. I had to find me some friends that go, hey man, I got to check. I had to find some friends and say, hey man, you ain't paying for that. I'm gonna pick that up instead of somebody standing around me, always waiting on me to get to check, always waiting on me to buy everything, always sitting around to my man, where we're gonna go, ain't playing to no golf trips, ain't telling my hey man, let's go here. I got this with none of that, none of that. You are in the same spot. It's not that you've changed. It's that people's opinion of you are changed. They now thank you, thank you all that, and you don't. It's just that's how they are, that how they are, and you're best friend. I'm gonna tell you come back because I'm gonna tell you what did happened to huh? And then I'm gonna give you a solution. All right, all right, We'll be back with part two. Of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hour. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Coming up in about twenty minutes more of the Steven A. Smith Interview. Can't wait for that, but right now it is time for part two of Steve's response to today's Strawberry letters subject have I been acting bad? Or? And boogie? Have I been at whatever? Jay? Alright, come on, Steve, let's recap. Alright, So Steve, this young lady wrote in she's a hairstylist. She's um just really come up in the last few years. She has a great clientele. Her business is booming. She brought a new car, a new home, she's got a new man in her life. H and things are going well and she's happy. But her friend, Steve, especially her best friend, they think, you know, she thinks she's better than everyone now, so they get and I've told you all what I thought about it earlier. But now let me let me focus on this best friend. For you, your best friend is sitting around with your other friends, and her mind set towards you has been contaminating by your other friends. So the girl you consider your best friend, it's really your less friend and just just like all the rest of them, because they're not happy for your success. And it ain't just your business. Oh it's that new man. You got to all the lonely helpless sitting around ain't got nobody, or ain't in a healthy relationship, or ain't in no relationship. Now you're in a relationship and your business turned around. God didn't bless you. Now, well, what's wrong with her? She thinks she all that? Now, No, you don't. And I can tell everybody your letter that you're a humble person and this has really hurt your feelings. So you're trying to find a way to deal with it. But this is how, this is how gardeners get the best and the most out of shrubbery and trees. Every tree, to get the best out of it, you have to prune it. You have to cut some branches off that look like they live branches, but they're actually prohibiting the nutrients from getting into the upper levels of the tree. So you prune them, You cut them back. It's what gardeners do. And God gives us this opportunity in our life to cut back, to prune, to get rid of so he can take you and let you flourish to be the best bush tree plant you can be. But you got a lot of dead weight around you. And they are called your friends, and we all have them. We all have them. So now this is your opportunity to start associating yourself with some more like minded people. See, you all got along fun because before, because you all were like minded, you all made the same kind of money, had the same kind of problems. Now a couple of your money problems and got solved, and a couple of your other problems and got solved. So now boom, you ain't in the group no more. And they don't like that. If you're the smartest person in your group, you need a new group. It's time for a new group. Period. They're not your friends. It's all. It's all good. And don't forget she has a new man. You got your new man better in a relationship. That stinking cheating on them. Boyfriend ain't asked in the mail, Always ugly man. Nobody touching him, Yeah, gotta be touched. You're getting hell and all here. Now you got your beers, You've got a salon hairpin. It's health. He dropping by the shop, slapping that wood stuff like that. Why you would that's what they mad about. What they upset about? What she does say? Her man is supportive? How you got that out of that? Like, I don't know. I'll be back later baby anyway. But she's doing well. She's successful. That's what success looks like. Come on now and that's what we're going out. You find out your real friends are. That's make it or lose everything. Become extremely successful or lose everything. Those are two ways to find out who you're friend. Yeah, yeah, exactly, You're exactly right, do extremely badly or man? You know I had a partner, Uh, we'll just asked me for some money, and I really just kind of forgot because he's never asked me for money before. I ain't really talked to him in years. Right, well, we talked text, but we ain't really seen each other in years. So dude asked me, fifty people do that easy? Man? Ah? Man, how do you fix your mom? To Shirley? Shirley, I got a whole business for post, so I didn't think none of it, man, So I kinda send it to me in an email. Then he texts me saying, man, if you considered my idea I really need that fifty thousand by Friday, not damn dog Monday, but you need it by Friday. See, and ain't no bank the bank don't even get you that what you mean? But you can't go do that at the bank. Get the loan officer. Look, I need this, friend, I have an idea. Can I get it down? I don't work like that, you know, man. Look I've had friends do that to me. You know you can't. Look, you just got getting new set of friends. That's got some funny, wouldn't me. I just wanted a job and he said he hadn't spoken spoken to him? So are you gonna send it to him? You're holding the boy up? Man, you're slowing up production. Well, I mean that's just wonderous. Yeah. That's different though than picking up the phone and saying to her friend and saying, hey, can I borrow fifty g That's different. That's crazy. H At least he did have to have a business plan attached to it. But that's crazy either way. Yeah, have you looked at the planet to go? All right, we gotta get out of here. Email as her Instagram. I's your thoughts on today's strawberry letter at Steve Harvey f M dot Com. Okay, and switching gears. Coming up in about ten minutes or so. It's our good friend Stephen A. Smith. They're going to talk about the NBA Finals. Stick around for that. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. We're back with Stephen A. Smith. So to answer your question directly, the two options, I would tell you the number one option for me would be l A. I think l A playing with Magic Johnson Purple. And he got two houses, Uh you got you got two houses in brent Wood. He's gonna fix them up and then sell him because he's good in a fat mansion nearby, and and and and the wife's gonna go there with or without him. So I mean the Bodon. She loves l A. So the bottom line is that listen, it is what it is. And I would say to you that l A right now looks like they've got a pretty damn good shot. But I would rule out I wouldn't rule out Cleveland, I wouldn't rule out Philadelphia, and I give Houston an outside shot. Boston and l A. Boston and Golden State. I don't see happening. No, I can't see him and Kyrie back together. You know Kyrie would not be happy. But keep in mind that if Kyrie would have leaves, you have to remember that Boston wouldn't mind getting its hands on Kauai Lennard, who doesn't want to be in San Antonio any longer. So according to the report, so Kawai Landard. If those reports are true, and Kauai land it really really is looking at least and it don't you If you're staying Antonio and you lose the magnitude of a kawa minute, you damn well better get a start in return. And Kyrie qualifies, yes he does. He's a bad boy. Well, Stephen A man, I gotta I gotta ask you this one. Yeah, anyway, I'm listening. Cavaliers can pull this out this year. Uh Steve, I'm gonna tell you they got a chance. It's slim, it's slim, but they got a chance. I'm gonna tell you what happened in game one that that it would have been the story had it not been for the blunder and the law. Let's keep in mind that Lebron James dropped fifty one okay Um, first player in NBA history to drop fifty in the NBA Finals in the law Okay, Jordan had fifty five, but that was a win. Here's the deal. Lebron James was on that court, and I consider Kevin Durand one of the top three players on the planet Earth. He's just that big time. I'm not talking about last year. I'm not talking about in the Finals when he every thirty five and eight or fifty five percent shooting and was giving us to Lebron just like Lebron was giving us to him. I'm talking about Game one Thursday night. Kevin Durant wanted no parts of le Brunches. He wanted no part of him. I'm telling you as a guy that was standing their court side, that was watching this game and watching time out and watching guys walk to the bench, and watching guys walk back and forth to the locker room, and watching their eyes are looking at them, and knowing basketball the way that I do. Kevin Durant want of no parts of the Brunches. And if that Lebron James shows up and he continues to make Kevin Durant feel that way, we have a problem. So all I'm telling you, and I'm telling you that Lebron is gonna go down swinging. Steph Curry, there's a rough rider. His brother ain't scared of anything, okay, and he's gonna bring what he's gonna bring in. But Clay Thompson was hobbling after Game one because of JR. Sliddering in the m and messing up his ankle. Draymond Green hit a couple of big shots for pride of that he couldn't he couldn't hit any jump shot. And Kevin Durant shot two from the field. Wasn't himself. Uh, just seemed to be discompopulated, And I think it's because he wanted no part for Lebron and as father, Kevin Durant hasn't really been the same since Game three in the Houston series. If that continues to happen, I don't think it will, Steve. I think you Golden State is winning this series in five. But if that continues to happen, Lebron, James and Cleveland got a shot. They got a shot because they ain't scared. They ain't scared now, and they scored seven games. I will say this, Steve Arvi, that sounds like an emotional decision. Ste I have to stephen I'm so sorry stephen A about the fashion choice of lebron. Oh, that was it was. It was hideous. Um. I know I saw my man Jay Anthony Brown trying to imitate that. You know that. But but but I would tell you, I would tell you. Listen, here's my whole point. First of all, I don't give a damn who you are. You're a man, you were in a suit. It can't be with sure, that's number one, number two, number two, it would be nice if the socks match. That's that's such the right that's just the right thing to do. That's just the right thing to do. But then, but then, when you consider everything that happens, there is a legitimate argument that could be made that the outfit may have contaminated the team, which may have affected him. Again, really that's stretched stephen A didn't contaminate him, but the rest of his teammates they seem a bit busy at time. So so all I'm saying is that these are the kind of things I'm paying attention to. And uh, I wouldn't do it. But you know what, I'm not a billionaire who happens to be the greatest basketball player on the planet right now, so you could try. He could try. I can't something outfit, Stephen. I gave him a pass on the outfit. I just tried to call it as fly. I was asked what I wear. I told him at sixty that is way passed the age limit, and that's a fifty maybe for real. Yeah, yeah, yeah, could pull off something like that because he distracted with one of his hat so he could pull out. You're saying it's hard to do that though, when you too seventy that's right to seventies six nine. You know, everybody looking for you to come to the game, and they're like, all right, walking off, here we come, you know. And here's the funny part, y'all. Here's the funny point. You know. They actually make all of us walk through security. So my point is, how did you let him through with that? My dog, Stephen A. Smith. I appreciate y'all, love y'all, Thank y'all so much. Thank you. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Alright, So Kanye West released his first solo album in two years. So nice it really is. It's simply called Yeah Things Again.

I thought it was really nice with the broke. Yeah, it is a nice album. Really. They still say album? Yeah, yeah, yeah, if you owe you you can say album. You say you own. They don't say CD release party. They say album released party, so you can still say album. So what do you think you looking for it? So way can I pick you up the album? That's what I wanted they want, you know, I'm asking Carla. You you've you've heard everything. I've heard a couple of them. What do you think, Carla? I think it was really good. Think it was really good. You know. This is his eighth solo album. He has about seven tracks on there, so yeah, it's it's a short album. But he talks about a lot of stuff. He talked about his mental health issues. He talked about having homicidal and suicidal thoughts. He mentions that he is bipolar, and uh, you know it was his album released party. It was steep. I mean, his wife was there, Kim Kim Kardashian was there, Like you said, Shirley kid Cutty, push your t nas. It was star studded. And you know, he has this vintage Kanye song on there that I like called Wouldn't Leave and Steve, he's talking about women that are loyal to men and and why sometimes men don't listen to their women, and he's acknowledging basically, I think he's acknowledging his wife, Kim, who you know, still buy him through all of his controversies and all the headlines and all the stuff. You remember, Kanye had a mental breakdown back in you guys remember that. So I like that song Wouldn't Leave. And then he has a song on their called make No Mistakes with Charlie Wilson What I Got, Yeah, that's the one. That's a good song too. And then there's a song on there called Violent Crimes where he is basically talking to men and he's telling men, you know, you used to be a player, you used to be you know, back in the game, a pimp type guy. And now that you're a father and you have a daughter, you want to make sure that you guide her steps in the right way. So yeah, can I just say one thing about that because I heard a couple of cuts off of it. Those were his friends that he invited to hear the album, and that's cool, and they had, you know, great things to say about it. But will the public go out and buy his album after what he said? That's what. No, man, they're gonna go buy his album? Well, I would hope. So they're going to go buy his album because number one, first of all, they're very fickle. If it's a good beating, a good drop, they don't care. And it's Kanye What what did he do? Really? He misspoke horrible and I think he knows that, and he's tried to apologize. He tried to say something really deep and it came out the wrong. Period. Well, they're gonna buy the album, but that has a lot to do with the fact whether people will go out and put their money down when they feel the way they deals. So I hope feel because it is a good, good product. He put out a good problem, They're gonna be some die hards that definitely aren't gonna do it, but then a lot of them will, especially once word gets out that it is a good album. Slaves gonna but everybody ain't no slaves gonna get it out the way He's said, I'm tell you that right now. Yeah, but yeah, I mean, I understand what Jay is saying, and some people have some issues with him on this Poe pro Trump bandwagon that he you know. So, I think though Kanye, he has some real loyal fans and those that like his music and like him, They're gonna be there. But he might take a little it. He might. He might. I like that going by, He's gonna rocket in the house. Um, is there any truth to the rumor? Have you heard anything about if I liked it? He's Kanye West. Look, he's a he's a pop culture guy. For shooting artists. He moves the needle in pop culture for sure. Oh, definitely, Slavery ain't pop culture. But I don't think that statement is gonna haunt him for the rest of his life. It'll be what It's one of the stupid things to say. But I think he knew it. I think he knew it all right, is it truth? Carlin? Did you hear anything about this that he changed his album completely after he appeared on TMZ. Did you hear anything about that? I think so I heard something about that because the album cover you see the Wyoming, the picture of Wyoming, and then he just kind of wrote on it. So there there's a lot of different rumors out of about the album. I didn't think it was gonna be the short with just seven tracks, and that takes some songs that he took some songs out. That slave song didn't make the cut, you know, Yeah, get up the slave song that he couldn't play on now dance track Jay with slave Dance. Yeah, we stepping in this cotton and that Steve get Oh god, you go too far. We step in and his cotton and they will wear his clothes. The Easy Collection, the music collection Easy when we cotton cotton Yet no, we said good things we did. He has a good Yeah, it's called pick it up in this in this Cottain. Go to Steve all social media comment, let us know if you're gonna buy the album and why or why not? Jeez? Alright, alright, um, we'll be up. We'll be back with more of this foolish. No, no, right after this step in this every day you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. This story is like trending right now. And off duty FBI agent allegedly shot a man in the leg early Saturday after the agent's gun fell from his holster. Guess where he was. He's on the dance floor he's at Yeah, he's in Denver.

Okay, the man in the video jumps to pick up the firearm and appears to fire the in the process.

I can't tell you the trouble is, dude is in Tell me what today requires a backflip? That just proves that they weren't doing the electric slide or no shot your slide, none of that. Aren't you supposed to have the safety on? See he was in the middle of the flow on his own, this whatnot, and he was doing so much. Everybody was watching him. They had cleared room for him.

I don't know, but it's gonna be some type of suspension and disciplinary action. He's gonna still be an FBI agent, I believe. But there's a problem because somebody got paid for this man getting shot. That that's a potential lawsuit here, yeah something. Yeah, I mean, this could lead to a big problem man, because the guy gonna press charges that got shot. Yeah for sure. You out of club? Yeah? Alright? Coming up next more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show. We'll be back at thirty three after the hour. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Carla.

Okay, well, Wild Wings, you can feel this then, Wild Wings Wild Wings. Buffalo Wild Wings said their Twitter page was hacked to the sports bar franchise officially Twitter official Twitter page fired off several racist and vulgar tweets on Friday night, which were up and posted for about twenty minutes before someone realized and took them down, got them deleted. One tweet said effing in word, I hate them? Okay. Buffalo Wild Wings released a statement saying we're sorry that our fans had to see those awful posts that you are but which obviously did not come from us. We are in touch with our Twitter representatives and will pursue the appropriate action against the individuals involved. So they know who did it? Yeah, so it said one just one tweet said effing in word I hate them. Somebody waiting on an online order. Yeah, say it against it. I can tweet that I hate their wings because I'm with you. I know they're so small, they're like pigeon wings. Yeah, are you guys, you guys are taking this person. No, we are because I love Yeah, they smoke that tweeting birds wings is bigger. I think they're humming. Listen, it wasn't their fault. I had one of them in my box, looked like a fly that nat wings is bigger. I've beat it with my two front teeth and it would go, I still have a wing stuck in my tooth that small and wings wings Oh no, when I went, it's a wang higging wangs. Wow. I mean, at least they did get right on it once they found out. They did release the statement, so yeah, yeah, I mean, if they didn't kind of tweets it was vulgar. Yeah, races. It was a series of these tweets that they had to really get a hold of that we have to stop going because I'm asking, can't get no coffee normal, you cannot go to waffle howe what can we do? Maybe you can now not eat buffalo away. So let's get that. And if they and if they hadn't hadn't canceled Roseanne, you couldn't watch her anymore stuff. Well, at least you know the powers that we got right on it. They apologized and they're looking into it to see what happened. So maybe they'll take your wing suggestion under advisement as well. Could you come to the back, don't bring me quell talking about the buffalo wings. All right, Steve, coming up closing remarks. You're listening to Steve. Alright, Steve, it's time for your closing remarks. Okay, today I thought a good subject to talk about was about I think mentors being mentored, how to attract the right mentor. Um. I don't care what you're thinking of doing in your life. I don't care what decisions you make. Somebody's already done it, attempted it, gone down that road, made the attempt. Maybe not your idea specifically, but the route to get there has already been traveled for the most part. Uh, If you want to be successful, there are successful people. If you want to be a star athlete, there's a star. You know what I'm saying. I'm saying to you that whatever it is you're trying to accomplish, somebody has already taken the path. Now finding these people is really really not that difficult. Now getting in front of them is where you're gonna find the difficulty. So let me give you a couple of suggestions. What is the best way to approach a mentor. What is the best way to approach a mentor of means and a mentor with means, Because that's that's two different people. You know, Martin Luther King was a mentor of means. He wasn't a wealthy man, but Lord have mercy man. The knowledge that he could have given you about struggling and overcoming and and and stick tuitiveness, those those lessons he could have taught you would have been invaluable. So you have two different types of mentors. You have mentors of means and mentors with means. Now, if you can find the two combined, that's even more special. But you're getting into more of a rare territory. Now. It's harder to find mentors of means and with means combined, because how do you get to that person? How do you get to the oprah Winfreys. When you find someone in your life, or you meet someone, or you hear someone, you put them on your vision board. I want to meet this person one day. I would love to have a conversation with this person. You have to understand something most people with means of any kind, like Bishop Jake's. He has a lot of means man he deals well financially too, but he is also just a man of wealth of knowledge. How do you get to these people? Well, it's several ways to do it, but if you can somehow find that way, because there's no specific way right when you get in front of this person, I want you to understand something. When you're facing them, they don't mind teaching and sharing, because most people of means are great sharers and great teachers a Bishop Jake's, Joe Oldstein, that brother that has the app out the hip hop uh preacher Eric Eric Thomas brothers like that too, and I listened to him man a lot of times. But getting in front of them, taking their course or whatever you might do. When you get in front of them, they don't mind teaching and sharing. They will mind giving you money. See, most people want to meet them mena so they can present an idea to him and get some financial help. That's the quickest way to run them off because everybody is used to that. Do you have any idea? How many times in a week I'm asked for money? It's sickening. But if you come to me and say, man, could you just give me a piece of advice? I usually don't have no problem with that. I got time for most anybody that wants some advice wants me to share a wealth a piece of knowledge. That's okay. So when you get to these people, have a plan to be taught something. Ask him to teach you to fish, not to give you a fish sandwich. Ask him to teach you to fish. They don't have a problem with that. Now in several ways to get in front of them. But when you do get that, when you finally do meet them and meet the main as difficult as you think. Now, if you live in you know, New York, and your mentor lives in the l A, you're gonna to find a way to get to l A. Oh, you gotta find out when you come to New York. You gotta do some research. But you have mentors close than that. You have somebody who's a really well mentally balanced person that you need information from. You have a person who seems to be doing really well with a wife and their children you need information from. Because it's all a balancing act. You can't be successful in your business and while your family sitting over there, struggling and in ruins is not going to work. Once you learn the traits of success, it it filters over into every other aspect of life. So you gotta have a balance. You can find these people right here. Don't ask them for money. People want to share and teach and give you information. Everybody needs a mentor. You cannot make it without mentorship. You know, there's an incredible saying, and we ain't got to get into why so incredible. But friendship is essential to the soul. You know why friendship is so essential to the soul. I've lost my father, my father, I've lost my brother, I've lost my best friend. Before you can live your life without your mother, you may have to eventually one day. You can live your life without your father. You may eventually have to do that. One day. You can live your life without your uncles and your relatives. But you know what, it's very very difficult to live your life without a friend. It is very very difficult to live in this world with no friendship. Nowhere, you man, you got. Friendship is essential to the soul. Do not avoid mentoring. Don't try to do it all by yourself, because nobody gets to the top by yourself. There's no such thing as a self made man.
