McDonald's game MVP two thousand and eight Big twelve Player
(00:41):
of the Year second overall. Pick your favorite Hooper's favorite
Hooper Man, Welcome to the show, Michael Beasley, Brody, what
up in the next chapter? You went up there and
dig your thing. You made Lance dance talk to us
about the lead up the ship it talking and then
actually getting out there on the court and doing what
(01:05):
you've been doing.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I mean to me, it was just you know, another day. Yeah,
it's just something to do on Thursday, you know, not
to disrespect, right, So you know it definitely he definitely
stronger than what I thought, right, But nah, I was
just you know, just doing what I do.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
And you know he was just what's that that you do?
For those who haven't seen.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
I just don't lose. I mean a simple as that.
You know, I've just been the best of my whole life.
Just that's it. And people will combat that with well
in the NBA this and the NBA that, and then
I will combat that with I've been a point a
minute my whole career. Like I think, I think a
lot of the coaches and I think my attitude got
(01:52):
in the way of me playing right. But if you
look at my pert thirty six, like you know, match
up with something like that.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So you look back now because just I mean, with
you thirty five, thirty six, thirty six, eleven year NBA
career but still in great shape, could still put the
ball in the basket, still play the game. As you
get older, do you kind of start because I think
when we're younger, we blame a lot of different situations,
and we have a lot of different situations that may
come up through they jeopardized. Now when you're older, how
(02:19):
you look at you?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
No, I mean I think. I think. I think because
I feel like you're the I feel like you're a mystery,
Like I feel like you had so much game.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
In People like how come you didn't play fifteen seventeen
years because nich I think. I think they want a
nigga to be a sucker, and.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I think so or my moduation process. One thing I've learned, right,
everything that happened to you, good and bad, you will.
You are the common denominator. Yes, you understand every every
time you take credit for the good when it don't
for you, you gotta take credit for that. And that's
hard from you. So whether it was your fault or not,
(02:57):
you got to understand what you did wrong. You gotta
stand what you could have done better. Understand right. So
that's just how I look at my career, right. I
don't blame no coaches. I used to blame SPO a lot.
I used to blame a lot. And the older I got,
(03:17):
the more I realized, like my rookie year was his
rookie year, and just as scared as I was of Rouse.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
He was just you know, more because he used to
be the film guy. Yes, yeah, but was longer than
yours to mess up though. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
But no, no really no, but no, no no. But
that's the number perspective. You gotta think. I come under
Frank Martin, I come under David Cox, I come under
real I put my foot in your ass coaches, So
it could have been SpongeBob in that head coach spot.
(03:55):
And yes, say I respected it because it was head coach.
I was scared of that Gatto, understand. So I was
more scared of s Fold than I think he want
to believe you understand. I didn't know how to display
my frustration in any other way but anger, because it
(04:16):
was just blow up, right. I was not thinking, could
anybody get in your ear? Can any of the ves?
You have the vets on your team? That's that's so,
that's one of that's one of the things I used
to get mad at. The vets were also right, uh.
I thought it was more of a challenging thing, and
looking back on it, it was more the media that
(04:39):
put me in U D against each other more, you know,
and then at the same time, are we really calling
a four year player of VET right? So U D
was still fighting for his next contract the way he wanted.
He got the finals MVP, so he got the luxury
of extending his contracts understanding. But most people don't get
(05:01):
that fourth year understand So when I look back on it,
the help I wanted and the men that I wanted
them from just wasn't on the team at the time, understand.
And I couldn't say that at nineteen to a twenty
four year old to a champion too.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Two of the guys you're talking about that didn't help
you are past guys. They life was they still there?
So you was looking for help for guys that already
had no No.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
So I ain't gonna say dead because because now now
d Wade man man, I got memories with d Wade
that you understanding that I fall asleep to same thing
with fucking U d U D. You D the reason
I can walk around Miami the way I can walk
around the day, So like it's it's things they taught
me that I wasn't. I just was necessarily I was
(05:47):
just too young. I came into Miami in nineteen I
wasn't supposed to be outside in y'all clubs. I wasn't
twenty one. I was supposed to every club in Miami
was supposed to be turning me down. Like so my
my case in point to that, I went out in
Vegas and bro I went out with d Wade fucking
Kobe d white House, and I'm sitting at the door
(06:08):
and they're like, bees, we know who you are. No,
they turned it down right behind Kobe, you understand. So
it's like Miami should have treated me the same way.
You understand.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Almost hindsight speaks, almost protecting you from yourself.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Almost protected me from myself. I was nineteen right now,
I'm not placing blame on everybody eye because I still
did what I did, smoke with I smoked, fucked who
I fucked, understand, And I love my kids right right.
But at the same time, like if I had to
put a vet on that season, like because d Wade,
(06:42):
he taught me some things, but d Wade was like
d Wade was just getting into his celebrity, so he
was around like like I remember he was around the
cast at girlfriends and shit. Then you know Gab and
all that shit. I just they was just too grown
for me. At the time U d was, he was
missing Miami. So Youd had me in every fucking hood
(07:03):
you want to. I'm talking about every cookout, everybody's birthday
for I'm talking about nigga. You just gonna kick it
and it's it's fun. But you know, he was still
finding his way too. But when when we traded for Jo,
Jayo really like that. Yeah, jo Jo really taught me
(07:25):
how to start stop saving my money, how to start investing,
how to move. He started how to move like a
real man, understand But and I still wasn't ready for
the lessons how we talk. I was nineteen. I was
my first year I got drafted. I was nineteen. I
ain't turned twenty until January. We drafted for We drafted
(07:45):
for Jo, and I think February, right before the All
Star breaker, right for him. Yeah, I want to say
Toronto reb Simi when I think, I think it was.
But Jayo really didn't stand took me under. But at
the same time I was fighting Spoil And then I
wasn't ready for brother fucking pat Riley Bro. I wasn't
(08:09):
ready for him, and not in a bad way like
man Pot treated me like a son, and you know,
like like, come on, Dad, don't kiss me in front
of the guys. Dad, I don't want to talk to
you today, Like like, but he made me sit in
his office every fucking week or whether I was listening
or not. And I live by the moments he taught me.
(08:29):
You know what I'm saying. But it's like, just I
was just nineteen, bro, I was just twenty. I was
just I had too much money for my age.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
What did you get at that time? Not to be
in your business? But the number two pick compared to
what we get? What would you get at that time?
Compared to man, I got some short shit because when
I got at nineteen, you got way more than me.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Like yeah, but you want the number two pick though,
I'm saying, so you took the crazy route we used
to talk about you. I went last pick. Motherfuckers when
Juco and she just said fucking just jumped in the
draft like got you know that's different. But I think
d Boys got five million his first year. I got
four million. I think my whole my total contract might
(09:08):
have total like twenty one million. Yes, So I mean
it was good money, don't get me wrong. Like nigga me,
me and my family were still eating today. But it
definitely not not with these niggas. Get to day.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Oh there, we want parts of that. Let's start the top.
I met you when you was young. I'll let you
tell that story. But I met you, you know, when
you was coming into being Mike Busley as a teenager.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
No, I wasn't Mike Beasy there. I wasn't into coming
into you were still. I think I think I might
have been ranked. I think I might have been ranked.
I think you was ranked there. So I got ranked.
My first time been ranked was eighth grade. I was
like number two pick. Then I skipped the ninth grade,
and then I was number two in the tenth grade.
(09:56):
That's around the time I met you.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Skipped the ninth grade. You just went to tenth grade.
You jumped up. Everyone wants to jump down, maybe once
or twice, but you jumped up a grade.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Yeah, because we found out we heard that they was
going to change the rule.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Oh so you want to hear and get the least.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I was here and got out of high school.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
So you classed up out of eighth grade. You went
to tenth grade.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Wow, which is what I think about it. Yeah, I
think it's a million paths to the top of the mountain.
But when you get this on the one view, you're
right now. I think people need to stop. I think
I think comparison is the thief of joy and forces
us to rush. Right. But no matter how much money
(10:36):
you have but don't have, tomorrow don't come no faster, right.
You know what I'm saying. No matter how fast you
want and how slow you are, tomorrow don't come no faster. Right.
So I think everybody should slow down, take their own path.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Everybody got their own wave to catch. I always say
that everybody. But tell the story how we met though you.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I met jack a. You practiced the first time. He
pulled up smelling like a bag, definitely smell like a
bad I was just get some money. I was just
starting to get some money.

the Wizards. Because uh, you pulled up in the range

the motherfucker Porter at the time, Like at the time,

But he probably pulled out like ten bands, all hundreds.

(17:03):
yeah at the time, like I tell people all the time,
like I ain't know I was having Like like I'm
gonna tell you when I first knew I was poor,

This motherfuckers like you, I lived right on Martin Luther King,
you know when I met Nolan right now Belle Haven,

you know, Like, yeah, Nigga's when we watched our closed
that right across the street. Nigga's where we get shoes at.
You know what I'm saying, we get our groceries and

the hip from like thirteen till when I left the college.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
At the hip, you said, you got the hot Hand
January NFE, nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
What they mean, born with it? Yeah, burst the woe
with it, burstfly fish swim, you know what I'm saying.
And I just do what God made me to do.
Like y'all y'all say I'm the best one on one
or y'all say I'm the best ice, so like, to
be completely honest, I don't even like iceold basketball. You
just you understand, Like I'm like, I really like five
on five playing the right way, and I grabbed my
(19:24):
io off the right situation. But every situation they make
for ISO, but everybody, like it's like people project right,
everybody see me as the best hoop for the best
one on one and one. You know, I get it.
It's just because I can do it so well that
makes sense. Like I don't want to do it all
(19:46):
the time, but I'm fortunate because like every time I
catch the ball, the whole arena is just looking at it.
Just go, especially big three, go get me. It's like
and it's like, damn, I got it. If y'all want
me to, you feel me, yo, And but I just
like I just like I just like to play the
right way. You know what I'm saying. Sometimes I got
to hand, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I'm making shots something
(20:07):
that you know what I'm saying, But you shoot the
right shots, the right thing is gonna happen at the
right time, you know what I'm saying. And I just
played on that that role. I played on that mode.
Know what I'm saying, Well, you know who you credit
to putting the basketball in your hand? Who I credit
to putting the basketball in my hand? My uncle Party, Yeah,
(20:29):
rest peace artist. He died like a month after my
mom did. I just remember he used to drag me.
I hate going to practice because I was. I was
trashed when I first I was playing cold. We all
was hey, I wouldn't we always? I had forty two
with five I was. I was like, but I was trashed,
(20:50):
but like I was not. I'm not sure if I
like wanted that. I just ain't. I used to hate
going to practice and doing all that dumb ship like
you understand. I was a real hood niggas, so like
all them squads and writing with hands like this and ship.
You understand. I hated that ship. But you know I
stopped doing that shit. I played with John Howard. That
(21:10):
was my first thing. Uh, but then my uncle got
locked up and so I stopped and then I stopped
playing and uh Church League Dupop Park, you know that's
like my family church Southeast. I stopped playing, you know.
And that's when like I don't know, I don't know.
(21:32):

always talk about whatever. And then uh I met Curtis Malone. No, No,
first I met p K, p K me and me
and KD and p K too, like like like like

How many years?
Speaker 2 (22:07):
One or two? Like KD the first that I met
that like love basketball, Like I think he made me
fall in love with basketball, you know what I'm saying.
Because like when I met KD was the gym every
day and then I had to worry about, uh who
(22:28):
I had to walk past when I get home or
who wanted to fight me because I looked like that?
Or you understand like you know, just a little neighborhood
ship that like you know what I'm saying. I was

my age, you know what I'm saying. Like when I
met KD, that's when I was like really like into
the gym, like into the gym, like you know what

a basketball to aswer your question. But then like I say,
he got locked up, like PK find me, PK and
KD stink all them niggas at the Jim Chuck Cars,
Scott Trivis, all them niggas saguate. That's when I really
like fell in love with that Shi again when he

Speaker 1 (31:12):
How do you end up in Kansas State school that
hadn't necessarily had any successful a while before you went there?
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Uh, looking back on it, Fucking Bobby Huggins too smart
for his own good, right, So like when I stopped
playing for DC AsSalt Bro, I ain't get no burn.
So I used to kick it with the Lanta Hill
a lot. Me and D D Hill got real cool,
you understand. So I just made a problemise with D
(31:39):
Hell because you know, I just fuck with the Hill
and I just all right. I went to fucking Laurenberg
Prep by myself, and I didn't have no cell phone
and I didn't know how to use the fucking payphone
and ship. So Nigga, I ended up not talking to
nobody in my family for like the first two months,
three more, and them Nigga sent me down there with
(32:02):
fucking forty dollars, understand So Nigga pinched that forty dollars
for like two weeks. After that, Nigga, I had to
rely on everybody else, which I made some good friends,
my Nigga, Ricky fucking Regis Coombab, fucking Keith Boken's like
this is niggas. Some niggas really took care of me,
understand But like Nigga, when I finally call home, like Nigga,
(32:23):
I just like that. That's why I'm saving numbers now, Nigga,
I gotta remember every number because.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Like Nigga, hold on, you remember every number crazy, like understand.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
So, like I just made like I was just scared
of shit, Nigga, my mother ain't called. I was mad
as shit my mother. Now I finally called my mother,
like nigga, I was fucking fourteen, like nigga, ain't nobody
think to check up on me or nothing? Nigga to
fuck And then you know, Loanbird, bro Longbird fucking you
gotta figure that shit out. Laurdbird North Carolina. We was
in the middle of the hood, like nigga, right by
a cemetery or that man whatever. I So, so when
(32:55):
I got cool with d Hill, I had that in
my mind and I just told him, like nigga, I
ain't trying to go to college and not have nobody there.
So wherever you go, I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
So you was leaning on the friendship and the love.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah, so you understand wherever you go, I'm gonna go
where else where else?
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Are you being recruited at any other schools that cross mind? Really?
Speaker 2 (33:17):
And this is why because as soon as he left DC,
so he went to No Carolina Sharlotte. So I committed
there because like when he left, that's like out of nowhere.
I just got popular. I just got understand, and I
just understand. I just don't like, I don't fake it
in front of niggas. Niggas don't understand, Like if you
(33:37):
can't take me, you can't take me. You know what
I'm saying, Like like your driver pissed at me, I'm
gott pissed a him because Nigga, he got mad at me.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
Real ship, all the smoking. Can't smoke in a fucking
carss create.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Yeah. So I just told I just sold d Hill
like Nigga with you. I just told the hell like, nigga,
wherever you're going, I'm going. So he went to he
went to, uh, Charlotte, you want Seecharlotte. That's what it is.
You don't see Charlotte. He went to un and see
Charlotte and and Nigga, I was, I was really gonna
go there. I was. I committed there, nigga, That's what
(34:10):
I was. And honestly, I skipped the ninth grade and
I was just gonna go to the NBA. You understand.
So that was that was my plan. I just ain't
want nobody recruiting me. I just ain't want like none
of that fake ship going on niggas coming.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
You went from not some one year in college and
to the number two pick.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Yeah, because I work hard.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
Yeah, obviously I didn't work hard.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
I'm consistent like the same way I work now like,
And that's one thing I can't thank Curtis Malone for.
But like I said, I work like. I can't thank
him because I paid it. I paid for that, so
I understand. I really thank myself for that. But like Nigga,
he like instilled that from the day I met him
in the gym for at least two hours a day
(34:54):
every day I'm talking about, I don't give church. I
don't give its birthday, I don't give its mother birthday.
I'm gonna give fucked the only day you convince it
if you did, you understand. My grandfather used to always
so it's like it's always it's always a good day
to you miss them, you understand. And my mother used
to always tell me, like Nigga, if you if you're
only feeling good, when you're feeling good, you ain't gonna
get shipped done understand. So Kurt used to always just
(35:16):
have me in the gym, you understand. So like even now,
like Nigga, like when I be fucked up, when I
be whatever, understand stomach be fucked up. Nigga bank account
be fucked up whatever, anything, whatever, Yes, nigga, get my
ass in the gymnigg that's the only thing that makes sense.
That's the only thing that makes sense. Yeah. Yeah, So

one thing I took from my child over Kirk. But
like I said, I paid for that ricky year when
(35:38):
you got drafted. Talk about what happened with you, Rio
Andre Arthur. You want me to be real. Yeah, you

of the best one on one players on the planet.
McDonald's game MVP two thousand and eight Big twelve Player
(00:41):
of the Year second overall. Pick your favorite Hooper's favorite
Hooper Man, Welcome to the show, Michael Beasley, Brody, what
up in the next chapter? You went up there and
dig your thing. You made Lance dance talk to us
about the lead up the ship it talking and then
actually getting out there on the court and doing what
(01:05):
you've been doing.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I mean to me, it was just you know, another day. Yeah,
it's just something to do on Thursday, you know, not
to disrespect, right, So you know it definitely he definitely
stronger than what I thought, right, But nah, I was
just you know, just doing what I do.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
And you know he was just what's that that you do?
For those who haven't seen.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
I just don't lose. I mean a simple as that.
You know, I've just been the best of my whole life.
Just that's it. And people will combat that with well
in the NBA this and the NBA that, and then
I will combat that with I've been a point a
minute my whole career. Like I think, I think a
lot of the coaches and I think my attitude got
(01:52):
in the way of me playing right. But if you
look at my pert thirty six, like you know, match
up with something like that.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So you look back now because just I mean, with
you thirty five, thirty six, thirty six, eleven year NBA
career but still in great shape, could still put the
ball in the basket, still play the game. As you
get older, do you kind of start because I think
when we're younger, we blame a lot of different situations,
and we have a lot of different situations that may
come up through they jeopardized. Now when you're older, how
(02:19):
you look at you?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
No, I mean I think. I think. I think because
I feel like you're the I feel like you're a mystery,
Like I feel like you had so much game.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
In People like how come you didn't play fifteen seventeen
years because nich I think. I think they want a
nigga to be a sucker, and.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I think so or my moduation process. One thing I've learned, right,
everything that happened to you, good and bad, you will.
You are the common denominator. Yes, you understand every every
time you take credit for the good when it don't
for you, you gotta take credit for that. And that's
hard from you. So whether it was your fault or not,
(02:57):
you got to understand what you did wrong. You gotta
stand what you could have done better. Understand right. So
that's just how I look at my career, right. I
don't blame no coaches. I used to blame SPO a lot.
I used to blame a lot. And the older I got,
(03:17):
the more I realized, like my rookie year was his
rookie year, and just as scared as I was of Rouse.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
He was just you know, more because he used to
be the film guy. Yes, yeah, but was longer than
yours to mess up though. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
But no, no really no, but no, no no. But
that's the number perspective. You gotta think. I come under
Frank Martin, I come under David Cox, I come under
real I put my foot in your ass coaches, So
it could have been SpongeBob in that head coach spot.
(03:55):
And yes, say I respected it because it was head coach.
I was scared of that Gatto, understand. So I was
more scared of s Fold than I think he want
to believe you understand. I didn't know how to display
my frustration in any other way but anger, because it
(04:16):
was just blow up, right. I was not thinking, could
anybody get in your ear? Can any of the ves?
You have the vets on your team? That's that's so,
that's one of that's one of the things I used
to get mad at. The vets were also right, uh.
I thought it was more of a challenging thing, and
looking back on it, it was more the media that
(04:39):
put me in U D against each other more, you know,
and then at the same time, are we really calling
a four year player of VET right? So U D
was still fighting for his next contract the way he wanted.
He got the finals MVP, so he got the luxury
of extending his contracts understanding. But most people don't get
(05:01):
that fourth year understand So when I look back on it,
the help I wanted and the men that I wanted
them from just wasn't on the team at the time, understand.
And I couldn't say that at nineteen to a twenty
four year old to a champion too.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Two of the guys you're talking about that didn't help
you are past guys. They life was they still there?
So you was looking for help for guys that already
had no No.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
So I ain't gonna say dead because because now now
d Wade man man, I got memories with d Wade
that you understanding that I fall asleep to same thing
with fucking U d U D. You D the reason
I can walk around Miami the way I can walk
around the day, So like it's it's things they taught
me that I wasn't. I just was necessarily I was
(05:47):
just too young. I came into Miami in nineteen I
wasn't supposed to be outside in y'all clubs. I wasn't
twenty one. I was supposed to every club in Miami
was supposed to be turning me down. Like so my
my case in point to that, I went out in
Vegas and bro I went out with d Wade fucking
Kobe d white House, and I'm sitting at the door
(06:08):
and they're like, bees, we know who you are. No,
they turned it down right behind Kobe, you understand. So
it's like Miami should have treated me the same way.
You understand.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Almost hindsight speaks, almost protecting you from yourself.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Almost protected me from myself. I was nineteen right now,
I'm not placing blame on everybody eye because I still
did what I did, smoke with I smoked, fucked who
I fucked, understand, And I love my kids right right.
But at the same time, like if I had to
put a vet on that season, like because d Wade,
(06:42):
he taught me some things, but d Wade was like
d Wade was just getting into his celebrity, so he
was around like like I remember he was around the
cast at girlfriends and shit. Then you know Gab and
all that shit. I just they was just too grown
for me. At the time U d was, he was
missing Miami. So Youd had me in every fucking hood
(07:03):
you want to. I'm talking about every cookout, everybody's birthday
for I'm talking about nigga. You just gonna kick it
and it's it's fun. But you know, he was still
finding his way too. But when when we traded for Jo,
Jayo really like that. Yeah, jo Jo really taught me
(07:25):
how to start stop saving my money, how to start investing,
how to move. He started how to move like a
real man, understand But and I still wasn't ready for
the lessons how we talk. I was nineteen. I was
my first year I got drafted. I was nineteen. I
ain't turned twenty until January. We drafted for We drafted
(07:45):
for Jo, and I think February, right before the All
Star breaker, right for him. Yeah, I want to say
Toronto reb Simi when I think, I think it was.
But Jayo really didn't stand took me under. But at
the same time I was fighting Spoil And then I
wasn't ready for brother fucking pat Riley Bro. I wasn't
(08:09):
ready for him, and not in a bad way like
man Pot treated me like a son, and you know,
like like, come on, Dad, don't kiss me in front
of the guys. Dad, I don't want to talk to
you today, Like like, but he made me sit in
his office every fucking week or whether I was listening
or not. And I live by the moments he taught me.
(08:29):
You know what I'm saying. But it's like, just I
was just nineteen, bro, I was just twenty. I was
just I had too much money for my age.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
What did you get at that time? Not to be
in your business? But the number two pick compared to
what we get? What would you get at that time?
Compared to man, I got some short shit because when
I got at nineteen, you got way more than me.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Like yeah, but you want the number two pick though,
I'm saying, so you took the crazy route we used
to talk about you. I went last pick. Motherfuckers when
Juco and she just said fucking just jumped in the
draft like got you know that's different. But I think
d Boys got five million his first year. I got
four million. I think my whole my total contract might
(09:08):
have total like twenty one million. Yes, So I mean
it was good money, don't get me wrong. Like nigga me,
me and my family were still eating today. But it
definitely not not with these niggas. Get to day.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Oh there, we want parts of that. Let's start the top.
I met you when you was young. I'll let you
tell that story. But I met you, you know, when
you was coming into being Mike Busley as a teenager.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
No, I wasn't Mike Beasy there. I wasn't into coming
into you were still. I think I think I might
have been ranked. I think I might have been ranked.
I think you was ranked there. So I got ranked.
My first time been ranked was eighth grade. I was
like number two pick. Then I skipped the ninth grade,
and then I was number two in the tenth grade.
(09:56):
That's around the time I met you.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Skipped the ninth grade. You just went to tenth grade.
You jumped up. Everyone wants to jump down, maybe once
or twice, but you jumped up a grade.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Yeah, because we found out we heard that they was
going to change the rule.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Oh so you want to hear and get the least.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I was here and got out of high school.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
So you classed up out of eighth grade. You went
to tenth grade.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Wow, which is what I think about it. Yeah, I
think it's a million paths to the top of the mountain.
But when you get this on the one view, you're
right now. I think people need to stop. I think
I think comparison is the thief of joy and forces
us to rush. Right. But no matter how much money
(10:36):
you have but don't have, tomorrow don't come no faster, right.
You know what I'm saying. No matter how fast you
want and how slow you are, tomorrow don't come no faster. Right.
So I think everybody should slow down, take their own path.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Everybody got their own wave to catch. I always say
that everybody. But tell the story how we met though you.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I met jack a. You practiced the first time. He
pulled up smelling like a bag, definitely smell like a
bad I was just get some money. I was just
starting to get some money.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
He was in league already, Yeah, I was.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
I was.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I wasn't in legal I was overseas right, Nah, was already.
I think he was a dispersed Okay, so I was
my secondear league. It was yeah, because you was playing
the Wizards. Because uh, you pulled up in the range
or escalated. I forgot which one.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Me and Mike Brown you had that fly ship. I
think had a mink coat on flysh.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Right.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
So like we we went to the game, like man,
we caught the train to the game, and you know
we had we just thought he was gonna leave his tickets.
He left us the family passes to see him after
the game, you know, the little turning we walk in
and you know, he chopped it up with his told
us some shot. You know what I'm saying, told us
(11:53):
would not do all that bullshit. You know, the nigga
gotta give you that school speech all fluff. Yeah, you
know what I'm saying, pulled out. Think I'm talking about
the motherfucker Porter at the time, Like at the time,
I was poor. I understand you gottastand so it looked
like a kajillion billion dollars. I was like, god damn.
But he probably pulled out like ten bands, all hundreds.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
In my whole check in my pocket, gave a nigga
my account, everything in my pocket.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Gave Nolan one, gave me one which which I'm playing
n I l causin Nigga that that's it, how to
fuck you up. But real ship that was, that was
that was the first hundred dollar bill, I've had my
hand like you know that that that somebody ain't telling
me to go get my mother. At the time, I
think I was. I was I was no younger than fifteen,
no younger than fifteen. I'm probably fifteen sixteen, but I
(12:41):
think I was going to might have been going to house. Yeah,
oh yeah, that's the first time I met Jack. Shout.
I Knowlan too, know just gotta Tennessee state. Yeah shout,
I know. Even call me by my son too, So
I appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (12:54):

Speaker 2 (12:55):
Uh, let's start mine work two jobs. Let's go back
to the beginning. You got four six Oh, my mom
worked three jobs, three jobs like my mom, Bro, My
mom was a gang. To talk about it. My mom
had a nine to five. She would get off, she
would get off work. Mm hm, I would say, you know,
she cout up heard like three four o'clock. It would
be like an hour and a half after we get up,
get home from school, right, then should make should make
(13:18):
sure my older brother Diamond make dinner, and then she
would go she had a little part time six to ten.
You understand, then she she'll come home from that what's
your brother name, Diamond, Well, that's his nickname Leroy, his
nickname Diamond. But then uh, chick home from that, make
sure you know what I'm saying, sleep and then should

I was young. So like like when she goes to
her last job, she would give us a number to call,
right man, one time I called it. You know what
I'm saying. I forgot what Diamond did to me. Diamond
did some bullshit. That's only time I call my mother,
(14:46):
but it's signed like because I was always the biggest
in the house. So if I ain't tell her first,
they all tell the story and then just like now, niggas,

So I was like, I just gotta make sure I
write this down. I got to write the time there

I just I just got it, like, oh my god, Yo.
But my mother worked hard. Bro, my mother worked hard.
She she literally got us. She just made sure we
ain't want for ship. I just remember that, you know
what I'm saying, Like, I ain't know. We was in
(16:43):
the hood soil I started biting my friends over you
know what I'm saying, I ain't know roaches was not
a regular thing until I went to people houses and
then understand like we really, like you know, we grew
up in shelters and ship. My mother just she just
made sure we was cool. I'm saying, we can get
evicted every six months we be in our crib and
we didn't know. We didn't know that was struggling though. Yeah,
(17:03):
yeah at the time, like I tell people all the time,
like I ain't know I was having Like like I'm
gonna tell you when I first knew I was poor,
Like when I first knew I was poor, I stopped
playing with Nolan, right because me and Kad we used
to live in the same neighborhood playing Saint Jam's ship.
So me and kd we nigga, he got roaches, I
got roaches, Nigga, you underm staying like that's normal. Yes,
Like we get on the same bus. I get on
(17:24):
the bus to go to this house on my mother
you feel me, like that's what we chill. Nolan, Bro
the first time of the nigga came to my house.
This motherfuckers like you, I lived right on Martin Luther King,
you know when I met Nolan right now Belle Haven,
right on Bell right across the street from the foot
lock all that ship. Nola came over. That motherfucker was like, Bro,
(17:45):
this this, this, this is what you're getting out of there,
you know, Like, yeah, Nigga's when we watched our closed
that right across the street. Nigga's where we get shoes at.
You know what I'm saying, we get our groceries and
so well, you know this is Nigga just run away
mother fuckers. Like and that's when I really started looking
at like where I'm living at, like you know, and
(18:06):
then you know, he hed pay attention to the sirens
and sirens that like before Noland, like you don't hear
the motherfuckers they just come up. But then He's like
damn really, So then you know, I started staying with Noland.
You know, life just like got and his mama. He
had a good household. Bro. Like I go home and
(18:27):
it's nine of us in the two bedroom. Back in
the two bedroom. You understand, I go to Noland. I
got the basement by myself. He got his own room.
I got a bar downstairs. I got fined up for juice,
Cranberry juice. You know, like I used to I used
to like I used to hate leaveing tho. I was,
oh my god, to the point where like my mother
(18:49):
just let me move in. Man Oland just attached for
the hip from like thirteen till when I left the college.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
At the hip, you said, you got the hot Hand
January NFE, nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
What they mean, born with it? Yeah, burst the woe
with it, burstfly fish swim, you know what I'm saying.
And I just do what God made me to do.
Like y'all y'all say I'm the best one on one
or y'all say I'm the best ice, so like, to
be completely honest, I don't even like iceold basketball. You
just you understand, Like I'm like, I really like five
on five playing the right way, and I grabbed my
(19:24):
io off the right situation. But every situation they make
for ISO, but everybody, like it's like people project right,
everybody see me as the best hoop for the best
one on one and one. You know, I get it.
It's just because I can do it so well that
makes sense. Like I don't want to do it all
(19:46):
the time, but I'm fortunate because like every time I
catch the ball, the whole arena is just looking at it.
Just go, especially big three, go get me. It's like
and it's like, damn, I got it. If y'all want
me to, you feel me, yo, And but I just
like I just like I just like to play the
right way. You know what I'm saying. Sometimes I got
to hand, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I'm making shots something
(20:07):
that you know what I'm saying, But you shoot the
right shots, the right thing is gonna happen at the
right time, you know what I'm saying. And I just
played on that that role. I played on that mode.
Know what I'm saying, Well, you know who you credit
to putting the basketball in your hand? Who I credit
to putting the basketball in my hand? My uncle Party, Yeah,
(20:29):
rest peace artist. He died like a month after my
mom did. I just remember he used to drag me.
I hate going to practice because I was. I was

Speaker 1 (31:12):
How do you end up in Kansas State school that
hadn't necessarily had any successful a while before you went there?
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Uh, looking back on it, Fucking Bobby Huggins too smart
for his own good, right, So like when I stopped
playing for DC AsSalt Bro, I ain't get no burn.
So I used to kick it with the Lanta Hill
a lot. Me and D D Hill got real cool,
you understand. So I just made a problemise with D
(31:39):
Hell because you know, I just fuck with the Hill
and I just all right. I went to fucking Laurenberg
Prep by myself, and I didn't have no cell phone
and I didn't know how to use the fucking payphone
and ship. So Nigga, I ended up not talking to
nobody in my family for like the first two months,
three more, and them Nigga sent me down there with
(32:02):
fucking forty dollars, understand So Nigga pinched that forty dollars
for like two weeks. After that, Nigga, I had to
rely on everybody else, which I made some good friends,
my Nigga, Ricky fucking Regis Coombab, fucking Keith Boken's like
this is niggas. Some niggas really took care of me,
understand But like Nigga, when I finally call home, like Nigga,
(32:23):
I just like that. That's why I'm saving numbers now, Nigga,
I gotta remember every number because.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Like Nigga, hold on, you remember every number crazy, like understand.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
So, like I just made like I was just scared
of shit, Nigga, my mother ain't called. I was mad
as shit my mother. Now I finally called my mother,
like nigga, I was fucking fourteen, like nigga, ain't nobody
think to check up on me or nothing? Nigga to
fuck And then you know, Loanbird, bro Longbird fucking you
gotta figure that shit out. Laurdbird North Carolina. We was
in the middle of the hood, like nigga, right by
a cemetery or that man whatever. I So, so when
(32:55):
I got cool with d Hill, I had that in
my mind and I just told him, like nigga, I
ain't trying to go to college and not have nobody there.
So wherever you go, I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
So you was leaning on the friendship and the love.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah, so you understand wherever you go, I'm gonna go
where else where else?
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Are you being recruited at any other schools that cross mind? Really?
Speaker 2 (33:17):
And this is why because as soon as he left DC,
so he went to No Carolina Sharlotte. So I committed
there because like when he left, that's like out of nowhere.
I just got popular. I just got understand, and I
just understand. I just don't like, I don't fake it
in front of niggas. Niggas don't understand, Like if you
(33:37):
can't take me, you can't take me. You know what
I'm saying, Like like your driver pissed at me, I'm
gott pissed a him because Nigga, he got mad at me.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
Real ship, all the smoking. Can't smoke in a fucking
carss create.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Yeah. So I just told I just sold d Hill
like Nigga with you. I just told the hell like, nigga,
wherever you're going, I'm going. So he went to he
went to, uh, Charlotte, you want Seecharlotte. That's what it is.
You don't see Charlotte. He went to un and see
Charlotte and and Nigga, I was, I was really gonna
go there. I was. I committed there, nigga, That's what
(34:10):
I was. And honestly, I skipped the ninth grade and
I was just gonna go to the NBA. You understand.
So that was that was my plan. I just ain't
want nobody recruiting me. I just ain't want like none
of that fake ship going on niggas coming.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
You went from not some one year in college and
to the number two pick.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Yeah, because I work hard.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
Yeah, obviously I didn't work hard.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
I'm consistent like the same way I work now like,
And that's one thing I can't thank Curtis Malone for.
But like I said, I work like. I can't thank
him because I paid it. I paid for that, so
I understand. I really thank myself for that. But like Nigga,
he like instilled that from the day I met him
in the gym for at least two hours a day
(34:54):
every day I'm talking about, I don't give church. I
don't give its birthday, I don't give its mother birthday.
I'm gonna give fucked the only day you convince it
if you did, you understand. My grandfather used to always
so it's like it's always it's always a good day
to you miss them, you understand. And my mother used
to always tell me, like Nigga, if you if you're
only feeling good, when you're feeling good, you ain't gonna
get shipped done understand. So Kurt used to always just
(35:16):
have me in the gym, you understand. So like even now,
like Nigga, like when I be fucked up, when I
be whatever, understand stomach be fucked up. Nigga bank account
be fucked up whatever, anything, whatever, Yes, nigga, get my
ass in the gymnigg that's the only thing that makes sense.
That's the only thing that makes sense. Yeah. Yeah, So

one thing I took from my child over Kirk. But
like I said, I paid for that ricky year when
