I was bodyguarding the forest side, we had to go
to the Bay Area to do some shows like Soldier Mischief,

(05:12):
to a point where we can't fly, were like, forget it,
let's just rent a van. So one of my guys
go get a Reno van. Now I already had a
gun on me, right, so I figured, I'm like, man,
if we're gonna drive up, I'll just take my gun
with me. So we drive up. They get what they
do the shows, but now they want to stay with
Souls and Mischief to do some recording. So I'm like,

(05:35):

the crib, because I was still doing other things at
the house. So so I don't get back to the house.
I said, man, when y'all get home, drive my gun
back home. I flew back home. I left them the van.
So when they get back to LA they called me
up and they're like big, you know, we're backs on.

soon as I get to Covid City, boom, they lit
me up. I had two warrants from my arrest already

hold onto the cash. All right, Cool, that's understanding. So
then I get pulled over. They come up. I'm in
a white astro van that had just bought, not knowing
that when I bought this van, I bought it from
this dude from thirties, right. I don't know the van

(06:34):

And when they lit me up, I slid both the
guns under my stomach. And when dude was patting me down,

Vegas used to judge Yes, for.

Speaker 14 (12:05):

on on on these private planes from la just to
be there for the grand opening. So literally I get

the door was about to close, Michael Bay come walking
on and I'm sitting there like, what the fuck is
going on? I know exactly who the fuck this guy

right here on the plane. So I'm sitting there, shook

(12:46):
his hand, cool vile. He remember me from coming to
the set Will and Martin, and then uh, I asked
him a question. I was like, let me ask you something, man,
are you aware of how many people in Hollywood say
you're like arrogant? You issue that and this? And I

(13:09):
guess the question was like the last thing he expected
me to ask him. But you can tell just on
some real shit. He was like, Yo, I appreciate you
asking me a real ass question instead of like sitting
there telling me how much you love the movies I've done.
That was like, so our whole hour flight was about
just chopping it up about some real shit, like what

(13:30):
people think of you versus what you think of yourself,
versus what you said and what you did, what you're
responsible for, blah blah, blah. That was the gist of it,
and it was love.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
It was all love.

So then I get to the lobby and I've never
hung out with dude. I was on the set. He
was in go mode, you know, genius director, big action god.
Everything is a thousand miles an hour in his head,
you know, And so seeing him when he's out of
game mode, he's a whole person, very cool, sociable. So

(14:03):
I get to the front desk to check in, and
as I'm walking through the lobby because it's the grand opening,
all these women was in the lobby in Vegas, and
without me noticing, by the time I got to the
front desk, I must have turned around. It was like
thirty of them gawking and looking and Michael Bay walked
up to me. It's like hey man, wow, you know,

Twenty twelve. I had changed management and h M literally

from a Tyler Perry mm hmm.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
Tyler Perry was.

Speaker 25 (29:07):
Like, have you heard have you heard about this jangle
this jingle movie? So no man, he says yes with
with Quentin Tarantino. I said, oh, that ship sounded crazy,
so he was.

Speaker 6 (29:21):
He was talking about it and then Will Smith and
I was like, man, oh, will you.

Speaker 5 (29:29):
Gotta do that ship? I said, motherfucker.

Speaker 6 (29:32):
He was like, well, he didn't know if he wanted
to play a slave.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
I said, yeah, yeah, You're not a slave.

Speaker 6 (29:36):
You a hero though, but you know, so he passed
and then uh, I seen the motherfucker uh interest album.

Speaker 5 (29:45):
I was at the show.

Speaker 26 (29:46):
I was doing a show. He came back and said, yeah,
you heard this show. Smoothe Smoovie Jankin in Tarantino movie,
Quinton Tarantino something Jane Games.

Speaker 6 (30:03):
I was like, you know, yo, yo, good looking black
motherfucking ass.

Speaker 5 (30:06):
Better do that ship man. You know just what was
to this movie? You know? Schools? You know what do
you think? I said, Man, you look at motherfucking ass.
You gotta do that ship man.

Speaker 6 (30:24):
But for whatever reason, they all passed, and then I
got a chance to come in and meet pointing Tarantino.

Speaker 7 (30:29):
And the thing was is that.

Speaker 6 (30:32):
You know, he never saw Ray, you know, so the
way the way he saw Ray was that he was
looking for wardrobe lady and the wardrobe lady did race.

Speaker 5 (30:39):
So he watched it. Had me come in, and I
was already off script.

Speaker 6 (30:43):
I was already off book again being prepared man, being
that sophomore in football, being ready and uh. And I
told him I know about the word nigga and all that.
I understand what that was back then, and it's necessary
to tell the story so that don't bother. I understand that.
And then I told him, I said, but here's the thing, No, dog,
I got my own horse. And he said, shot.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
Your own fucking horse. I said, I got my own horse.
What the fuck?

Speaker 6 (31:11):
I said, yeah, it's outside, bro, And I said, not
only that, but your stunt horse looked just like my horse.
We just got to paint the feet, just paint the
paint the shoes white and were good. And so he
was like, I've never in my entire fucking life heard
of somebody bringing the horse.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
I said, I got my horse. Ride.

Speaker 6 (31:29):
I said, Bro, let's go what we're doing in Boom.
I got on the movie bro, yah know. And then
we got into the movie. Man, you know, it was
it was volatile, but it was a movie that for
black and white folks, you finally get a chance to

(31:49):
see an African American league.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
Not only.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
I'm not getting ready to cut somebody else out, who
the fuck thought that's mean? But it was the first
time you saw a black character really be a hero.
And that was all Quentin Tarantino. He really wanted that
to happen. And when Jango came out, man, you know,
it was gang busses and it was like, you know
it it uh you know.

Speaker 5 (32:19):
It moved the culture in a different way.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (32:22):
Yeah, And people didn't understand the history of Django. There
have been jangles made years back. Django was a character
from Italy from the Spaghetti Westerns.

Speaker 5 (32:33):
That's how you got Clint Eastwood. Damn.

Speaker 6 (32:35):
So when I did that that version, Bro, when I
go to Italy or any of these places, I can't
even walk the street because that was you know, that
was like a superhero.

Speaker 5 (32:44):
Yeah. So so it all worked out.

Speaker 7 (32:46):
That's beautiful. What was it like working with Leo?

Speaker 12 (32:48):
To me, one of the most underrated actors of our generation,
What was it like being able to team up with
him on that?

Speaker 7 (32:54):
First of all, that that's.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
The hormie man.

Speaker 6 (32:55):
A lot of people don't know, like Leo was like
a real real dude, and you know, you don't have them.

Speaker 14 (33:00):
I don't.

Speaker 6 (33:00):
I don't validate nobody just because they enter the culture.
But like Leo stood in line for the big album
back in the day, his best friend is you know
what I'm saying that a lot.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
Yeah, that's why.

Speaker 6 (33:13):
That's why in Wolf of Wall Street when he popped
like it, that's really him, that motherfucker, Like he really
on the ship, the motherfucker he does this thing, oh man,
all the way. And the cold part about it was,
you know he knows the whole all the scenario. Here
we go, Yo. One day, I'm gonna get that motherfucker
to do that ship. But he's a real dude. And

(33:33):
when he came onto the set when we first did
the readthrough, he had problems with the word nigga though,
because he was saying and he said, Paula, I.

Speaker 18 (33:41):
Can't I can't say this.

Speaker 5 (33:44):
I just can't do it.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
And then sat Meiel.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
Jackson goes, hey, motherfucker, it's that's another Tuesday.

Speaker 18 (33:50):
These nigga.

Speaker 5 (33:54):
Say that ship. Mother said.

Speaker 6 (33:57):
I was like, so he had had to really wrap
hisself into that character. And at one point I said,
I pulled him to the I said, Leo, listen, I
ain't your friend right now.

Speaker 5 (34:07):
We back in the day, and if he was.

Speaker 6 (34:09):
Back in the day, they would they would kill you.

Speaker 5 (34:12):
Hanging out with me talking to me face and face.

Speaker 18 (34:14):
So you got to let that shit go.

Speaker 5 (34:15):
Man.

Speaker 6 (34:15):
The next day, that motherfucker came into the set and
I said, what's up, Leo, Leo, what's up?

Speaker 5 (34:22):
What's up? Just speak to me when they say action.

Speaker 6 (34:26):
Motherfucker went in his bag and that's one of the
that's one of the coldest performances you take that performance
out and he talks about the performance. I won't I
won't say some of the private stuff that he talked about.

Speaker 5 (34:38):
I won't say who it is.

Speaker 6 (34:39):
But there was this black guy when he grew up,
he used to hang out with and so he mimicked
that character for that movie.

Speaker 5 (34:46):
Man so powerful, motherfucker man when he.

Speaker 6 (34:49):
Came on too, when him and Samuel finally came onto
the set, Man, the motherfucker's walking in slow motion with
their baps and shit. Man, real Hollywood stars, all star
imagine an all star sam Leo. I mean, the motherfucker
was going at it. So that's why that movie did.

Speaker 14 (35:05):
What it did.

Speaker 24 (35:14):
Mike, is it safe to say that Eddie Murphy and
Richard Pryor your common inspirations?

Speaker 7 (35:20):

Pryor before he died and set with him for a
whole year. He couldn't talk, but he could, you know,
because yeah, but he could see in his eyes because
he had multiple grosses.

Speaker 5 (35:37):

Speaker 5 (41:04):
They said, because I.

google it. He said, y'all stole the car. I said, okay,

to this. This is me moving.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
From Indiana to no New York, nigga.

Speaker 27 (41:38):
I lived in New York for fifteen years. That's where
the fuck I moved to New York. I moved to
New York City when I was twenty one years old,
didn't know nobody, didn't know nothing, and got fucked around
in an audition for the motherfucker Sopranos and got the roll.

Speaker 1 (41:55):
Didn't have no money or nothing. He said, yeah, he said.
I said, I ain't got to touch him, do it?

Speaker 27 (42:00):
He said, no, y'all, just you're just gonna be when
when we come into house, you're gonna holler for him.

Speaker 29 (42:04):
And say addie.

Speaker 1 (42:06):
I said, guess what.

Speaker 27 (42:08):
I don't know how to play a gay guy, but
I know how to talk like my mother. I know
how to talk just like her. That's who I grew
up with, just.

Speaker 5 (42:19):
Me and my mama.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
So if I want to go into my mama, my god,
I know how to do that. I said, I'm not
gonna let that test who I am. You know what
I'm saying. So I did the role, got my little money,
and moved on, you know what I'm saying, And it.

Speaker 5 (42:35):
Didn't bother me.

Speaker 27 (42:36):
That's that's that's why I can sit right here and
tell you that I played the role, and it took
me a long time to grow up to learn that.
You know, that's one of the devil's things that he uses,
especially on black men. It's called a gay demon, and
y'all get tested with it your man hood. If the

(43:00):
motherfucker find out you part of any of that shit,
you look at you like you're crazy. But the young
black men they praised killers. You set there and praise
the nigga to kill five people.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
Motherfucker, you gonna look at that man and call him
a pump. You got life fucked up.

Speaker 27 (43:22):
It's different fastests and shades of people, period. And if
you look down on something, it might be a clue
you might be a part of it. You know what
I'm saying, because if you, if you, if you, if
you that type of person to look.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
That's why I didn't like this Shane that kept saying,
will you call me gay?

Speaker 24 (43:44):
I said, go look at the thing he said, zesty.

Speaker 27 (43:49):
I never said the word gay because I know what
that is. I know how people feel about that. I
don't judge people. I gotta I got I work with
nothing but gay people in Hollywood. Some of the best
people in the world. Beautiful people save your life, probably
do more for you than the killer. Will killer let

(44:10):
you die because he's a killer, But the gay dude,
I hug you a little tighter.

Speaker 7 (44:28):
Welcome to the show, the legendary said the entertainment.

Speaker 12 (44:30):
I love your versatility, though from where you started to
where you're at now, When did you know in the
comic space that you had kind of not only made it,
but you had the ability to cross over and start
doing more than just stand up man.

Speaker 15 (44:45):
It probably had to go back to the butt like
commercials like you know. So it was interesting back in
I guess this early late late ninety early two thousands
was I was trying to do. But but wise it
was headquartered in Saint Louis. I was trying to get
some money to just do a tour like with some people.
I saw somebody, a country singer with a tour bus

(45:07):
with his face wrapped on it.

Speaker 18 (45:08):
That's all I wanted.

Speaker 15 (45:09):
So I was like, we go to bud Lights, see
if they'll do this bud like to it, so I
can have a tour bus with my face on it.

Speaker 18 (45:14):
And then they did that.

Speaker 15 (45:15):
They did that and then offered me the commercials, and
so I did a Super Bowl commercial to one where
I shake up the beers and.

Speaker 5 (45:22):
And it won.

Speaker 14 (45:23):
It won, like the super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (45:25):
Yeah, a long time ago, but it won.

Speaker 15 (45:26):
And then you crossed you you know, you wake up
the next day and it's like you're walking through the
airport and a whole nother fan base.

Speaker 18 (45:33):
Like your boy and shake up mirrors, ain't you?

Speaker 14 (45:37):
I tell you what?

Speaker 5 (45:38):
You get to shake them?

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Goddamn like what's your name?

Speaker 18 (45:47):
But you realize it's a whole new fan base.

Speaker 15 (45:49):
And so that's when that's when you kind of you know,
because you know, we take great pride like I. You know,
I was the host of Comic View, so I became
black famous before I was, you know famous with other
people like you know, in the hood because I was
the host of Comic View and I was on every night.
Even in Hollywood standards, I was way more famous, you know,
like in the like Dallas, down here, Houston than anybody

(46:12):
would knew me out there before before I hit So
so I would go in meetings and you know, people
wouldn't know who I was at all, and you know,
but I came with this kind of like, you know,
this kind of sense of grandeur from the assistance and
the secretary of everybody, like why the he's so excited
to see you. That was like early that they'd been
like before, like how people are about YouTube stars now,
like you know, you know, as adults were like I

(46:34):
don't know who that person is, no, you know, but
if you know, you're like, yeah, that's that was he
owned some right now. So that's what it was. So
I think that you know, from there, I recognized it
and then it just kind of just kept staying on
my hustle like that always kind of also been very
outside of business. You know, me and my partner Eric
Eric Grohen, we've been together like my whole career of

(46:56):
forty years, and we don't really we got you know,
we kind of operating the agency situation, but we never
really like tried.

Speaker 18 (47:02):
To be like in the inner circles of people and
just kind of like walk around. So we'm saying this,
I wasn't at no Diddy parties.

Speaker 15 (47:12):
One party, guys, just one party.

Speaker 18 (47:14):
I mean my lawyer's dealing with that.

Speaker 5 (47:16):
Yeah, one time. And what I'm trying to.

Speaker 15 (47:23):
Say, always get around and trying to get yourself out
of this sit like, yeah, I know you're gonna see
the picture, but no, that was at a church convention.

Speaker 7 (47:35):
Yeah, I was only there for twenty minutes.

Speaker 24 (47:38):
Was there any moment in your career where you felt
like you wasn't reaching your potential, You was a failure
and you almost gave up?

Speaker 18 (47:45):
Man, I mean you know it's you had like shake back.

Speaker 15 (47:48):
You know, Hollywood is a place where it is ebbs
and flows to it in a in a you know,
in a real way where you hot everything popping and
h let me see, I did like I did like
a couple of movies that I was really you know,
I had ambition for and then you know, many circumstances,
for different reasons, they didn't pop right.

Speaker 18 (48:07):
The moves to rop and then you drop you know.

Speaker 15 (48:09):
You lose your you lose the cachet and yeah, and
it was gone, and it was like some shit where
you're trying to figure out how to get it back,
and you know, yeah, it just feels like Hollywood they
checking for you. You just have to learn how to Luckily,
you know, I always say for stand ups, that's really
our saving grace, the fact that we can go on
the stage, go around anywhere in the country, around the world,

(48:34):
and still make a living, like we don't have to
depend on, you know, the business.

Speaker 18 (48:38):
So that was really the saving grace. But when you
when you.

Speaker 15 (48:41):
Kind of hot, you got that it factor and then
you not like getting the calls, that's a really that's
a hard space to you know, to kind of live
in as a young person. So luckily, I even feel
like my career started a little late though, Like I
went to college, I had graduated, I didn't even really
start doing coining soil. I was like twenty seven, twenty eight,
which is kind of late for people, you know, and

(49:02):
then I popped, you know, in my thirties and so
so I was a little mature for it and had
worked in corporate, so it didn't it didn't scare me,
scare me.

Speaker 18 (49:11):
But I definitely was shook that.

Speaker 15 (49:13):
You know what was once like this super fun private
jet life was back to that.

Speaker 18 (49:18):
Yeah, what's up?

Speaker 5 (49:19):
You know everything?

Speaker 15 (49:19):
That's me too, man, I'm too beef. I used to
I used to be an all jet life.

Speaker 5 (49:29):
You know, change you all right?

Speaker 18 (49:31):
Good, you realize you're good.

Speaker 5 (49:33):
You're back to jet life. I've been on a couple of.

Speaker 12 (49:37):
A could have been on a couple of inventions.

Speaker 7 (49:41):
Yeah, jet life all right.

Speaker 15 (49:45):
But that that that is one of those things I
always tell young young people that too. You just got
to enjoy the ride more than anything, like, because it
is an ab and flow to any you know, any
business when you hot and you know, you definitely feel
like this always your spot, and you try to like,
you know, kind of respect that.

Speaker 18 (50:03):
But then the littlest thing can change.

Speaker 15 (50:06):
And so like these movies didn't hit like like I
thought they was, and that was it.

Speaker 5 (50:09):
Like you know, you're like, damn.

Speaker 15 (50:11):
So you fight, you pivot, you fight. I pivot. That's
when I changed the television. And it's been really a
great saving grace. So you know a lot of times
you don't have that with TV. You don't get if
you're not on the IT show like you know whatever,
you know fifty producer or whatever, these kind.

Speaker 5 (50:26):
Of IT shows.

Speaker 15 (50:27):
But you know, my show been on seven seats like
it might not be everybody cup of tea, but it's CBS.

Speaker 18 (50:33):
Top networking World and the checks reflect them.

Speaker 5 (50:37):

So so here I am. I'm I'm a rookie and
Joe Klein went to the University of Arkansas. That's my guy.
Ended up being my teammate later on in my career.
But so here it is, I'm a rookie. He's playing

(01:03:25):
for a Phoenix. So we're out in Phoenix and I'm like,
all right, bet playing them. And it's a certain play
that Jimmy Lineam ran where the big man gets the
lib for the dunk. So the first time I went up,
you know, boom, I caught it. I dunked it, and
y'all what y'all don't want it tonight? So Joe Klein

pump y'all up to think. Y'all caught dieseling this and that,

Speaker 24 (01:06:24):
Shout out to Regard Miller Man. He's the reason why
we have this new segment called factor fiction. I think
he started it because his sister came on the show
and he had a lot to say that was fact
to fiction. We're gonna start with you. You was eject
fact to fiction. You was ejected from the McDonald's fact How.

Speaker 5 (01:06:50):
No, so cause, man, I like, I could deal with
playing hard. I could. If you busting my ass, I
could deal with that.

Speaker 23 (01:06:58):
You know what I'm saying, Yo, don't come at me
with all the elbows and dirty ship though you ain't
got to do that. If I'm busting your ass, don't
come at me with that bullshit dog make you with it.
The big boy, Darnelle Robinson, the big fellow from Chicago.
You know, we ended up being friends in the long run,
but it was like, yeah, you know he shot the elbow.

(01:07:19):
I ain't appreciate that ship man, so you know, I
gave him that elbow back. And yeah, they gave me
the tech Man and kicked me out of that much
on Tech one or two.

Speaker 5 (01:07:28):
I didn't care. I didn't want to be there.

Speaker 7 (01:07:30):
I didn't want to be there.

Speaker 23 (01:07:31):
No, No, to be honest, I didn't want to be there.
Like I'm y'all already know, I'm not an All Star
Game type of I don't give a fuck about the
All Star Game. And McDonald's a snatch. So they're like, oh, yeah,
he top player in the country, you gotta be there.
I'm like, yeah, So I was half hearted.

Speaker 24 (01:07:46):
With all the ship there, the other records you probably
have that probably won't be broken.

Speaker 5 (01:07:50):
The only person could kick out McDonald's All American.

Speaker 7 (01:07:53):
Game fact with Ronald McDonald was there too.

Speaker 24 (01:07:56):
Yeah, and you just had came from the children's hospital
the day before.

Speaker 5 (01:08:00):
Bullshit. I know I was there too.

Speaker 12 (01:08:03):
Yes, one of your first scrimmage games in us U
n C, you dunked on senior big man Eric Montross
and said your job is mine.

Speaker 7 (01:08:14):
Factor fiction.

Speaker 23 (01:08:16):
Those words. No, it wasn't those exact words.

Speaker 7 (01:08:20):
We hear the words, but.

Speaker 23 (01:08:21):
It was something like that. It probably was something like
this my ship now or you know, something like that.

Speaker 5 (01:08:30):
Let him know you was here.

Speaker 7 (01:08:31):
How'd that go?

Speaker 23 (01:08:32):
My presence is felt, my presidence. But him and Coach
Smith taught me a lesson. So playing against Eric Montrose,
that's my guy. Rest in peace. So I'm like, all right,
in practice for the first you know, month or so,
he's busting my ass. You know, I'm like ship because
I'm still struck, like, oh ship he was. I just

(01:08:54):
watched him a couple of months ago winning championships. So
here I am practicing. Ain't against this dude. So I'm like,
all right, bet So first month he busted my ass.
Then I'm like, man, bet I got his game here
I am we in practice, he goes for his jump hook.
So with his jump pook, he always liked to just
put the elbow out first and then go up with

(01:09:18):
the right hand hook.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
I got you, I got it, I got it.

Speaker 23 (01:09:24):
Take the elbow. I stepped back and I'm jumping straight up.
Block that shit right. Boom, We start to break block
that shit to stack stack we out. Let's go we out, Boom,
they come back down. Next time he clears me the
fuck out smacks me all in my face. I'm talking
about hearing me like this, Jon Pull, I'm like, oh, so,

(01:09:50):
I'm like, okay, it's an accident. You could take that,
you know, the first time it's an accident. But when
he came back down and did it again, same thing.
No dog, we got to fight right there. I'm like, man,
the fuck out of here. They're like, oh, you're gonna
cut that shit out, coach.

Speaker 7 (01:10:05):
Oh, no, we don't do that.

Speaker 5 (01:10:06):
We don't say that here. Oh give him a vest.

Speaker 23 (01:10:10):
So anytime you had to, you know, you you were
getting disciplined by any of the coaches, you had to
wear a weighted vest.

Speaker 5 (01:10:17):
Yo, run them laps.

Speaker 7 (01:10:19):
Run, that's it.

Speaker 23 (01:10:20):
I had to run till a coach Smith told me
to stop. So I ran for about maybe like ten minutes.
But it was a learning lesson, you know, like, shit,
I can't fuck I can't fuck with the All American Senior.

Speaker 7 (01:10:34):
Facts.

Speaker 24 (01:10:41):
He saved me my rookie year, my brother Keny March
came motherfucking mark.

Speaker 12 (01:10:45):
What was that process like from the day you broke
it and go to the day you got drafted number one?

Speaker 5 (01:10:51):
Hey, it was only like six months, right, and.

Speaker 11 (01:10:53):
When they met long shit. I got hurt March in
the junie, so I didn't work out. I couldn't out.
I wasn't like I had screws in my ankle, you
know what I'm saying. None weight barren. I was in
a boot on crutches for two months. So I didn't
do nothing but go to therapy. While everybody else going

(01:11:14):
to meet with teams do all that. I didn't do
none of it. Then when I was able to get
the boot off and all that, it was okay. So
how is it like, Well, so we go to Chicago.
They're like, well, the screws got to come out before

(01:11:35):
we even think about picking them. Screws got to come out.
The doctors got examined, and so so we did that,
and all these teams trying to so we were like, everybody,
ain't finna come in this damn room. Ain't no damn
guinea pig. What number you got? I ain't gonna be there?
We got you can't come in the room. You can't
come in room. So we do that and but nah,

(01:11:59):
it was hell. And mentally I didn't didn't know, didn't
know how to deal with it. Man, Like it ain't
never been through that I always could hoop. I couldn't couldn't,
couldn't do anything but sit there and wait, wait, and
hear they think about taking this person.

Speaker 7 (01:12:12):
And who was in that draft? Who was remember the
talk I.

Speaker 11 (01:12:15):
Was thinking about, like they was gonna take theirs first.
The NETS was gonna take him first. They weren't thinking
about taking stro Strong miles second, but they were thinking
about taking there as first. So there's is athletic, but
he couldn't hit his ass with both hands. Boy couldn't
shoot that thing. So they was thinking about taking him.
And I was in Orlando when he was working out.

(01:12:36):
I went to visit Lana. I was down there together.

Speaker 5 (01:12:39):
Said he couldn't.

Speaker 11 (01:12:46):
Carry So I watched his workout right, and he couldn't
shoot that bit. Oh, So I was like, ye'all think
about taking him. I was like, okay. So Stu had
told me. So Stu Jackson, he was in Vancouver at
the time. Jim and Stu told me, if the Nets

(01:13:07):
do something stupid, but I don't take not taking you
number one, you won't get past us at two.

Speaker 14 (01:13:12):
So you good.

Speaker 11 (01:13:13):
So I was like shit, all right. So from that point,
from that conversation on, it was like a relief change.
Of course I want to be number one, but him
telling me that was a side relief, know what I'm saying.
So coming up to the draft, all that it was
still like they still was on the fence. I drafted
like they was still on the fence, was what they

(01:13:34):
was telling us.

Speaker 5 (01:13:34):
But yeah, non Mike Miller, Jamal Crawford.

Speaker 36 (01:13:40):
So you did no workout for no teams and sort
of just sort of a workout. Let me hear they
wanted to say. They said, we need to see if
he can run and jump. I had been right before
the draft, maybe a week before the draft.

Speaker 5 (01:13:57):
I go to Jersey.

Speaker 11 (01:13:59):
I ain't really can't really do much, but I had
been doing rehab. I had been out the boot and
all that. Doing rehab for a little bit wasn't right
all the way, but I had been running this stuff.

Speaker 5 (01:14:12):
Literally.

Speaker 11 (01:14:14):
I ran down the floor, ran back, grabbed the basketball,
dunked it, and when it took my shoes off.

Speaker 5 (01:14:25):
I see you at the draft, exactly what y'all asked.
If y'all saw me run, I jumped.

Speaker 7 (01:14:34):
That's it.

Speaker 5 (01:14:35):
What else you want from me?

Speaker 7 (01:14:36):
Man, No one's ever did that, I guarantee you. In
the history of no sport.

Speaker 5 (01:14:41):
So they had a decision to make.

Speaker 7 (01:14:43):
They chose you.

Speaker 5 (01:14:44):
Yeah, they made it, and they chose you.

Speaker 11 (01:14:47):
It's a guy from Jersey, I medicine, and it sold me. Yeah,
thank you, I said, I was just doing my job.
He's in this room, the Jersey guy in there, so
thank you.

Speaker 5 (01:14:56):
So they made the right.

Speaker 7 (01:14:56):
Choice, absolutely, and then the wrong choice.

Speaker 12 (01:15:00):
So, uh, rookie season, obviously you're you're coming off this injury,
but you're ready to play.

Speaker 7 (01:15:09):
Now, how was that first year? Jack was along with you?

Speaker 5 (01:15:12):
That's my guy man for us? It was great hooping.
It was in the league.

Speaker 11 (01:15:18):
Couldn't couldn't tell us nothing right right think? And then
you know what I'm saying, man, Jack was in it together.
I think we was. We was.

Speaker 5 (01:15:29):
Both averaging.

Speaker 24 (01:15:30):
I think at the at the rookie mark to go
in a Rookie All Star game, we was averaging ten points.

Speaker 5 (01:15:34):
We was on the top of the list and all that ship.
And uh, I.

Speaker 24 (01:15:38):
Always tell a story about how I didn't get I
didn't get the rookie Hayzen because because of him, they
wanted all that kicking the ball in the stadium and
go get donuts.

Speaker 5 (01:15:46):
None of that ship. Kmar was not going, and I
was a rookie right there. So if he ain't got
to do it, I ain't gotta do it.

Speaker 24 (01:15:53):
That kind of stepped your game. Said we ain't got
to do that. Y'all gonna take up that, gonna get
no donuts. I said, I ain't got to do it,
y'all go take that ship.

Speaker 11 (01:16:03):
I just had the mentality man like, ain't no grown
ain't no grown man gonna make me do nothing but
that just I can't.

Speaker 5 (01:16:10):

in the scene, it says, well, Vince is gonna say
a line and then Snoop's character, Huggy Bear is gonna
interrupt him, and Vince's gonna say, hey, don't you interrupt me.

(01:20:15):
So okay, me and the director Todd Fellers will get

(01:20:37):
So the nigga and me was finna punch him, right,
But the actor in me, I.

Speaker 5 (01:20:43):

I just felt the urge. Man, just feel like I said,
you have to urge.

Speaker 2 (01:21:03):
You dog here, motherfucker.

Speaker 37 (01:21:05):
You slapped the ship out of me, because that's what
happens when you're on the set of a movie and
you're working with real actors. Ship like that just happened.
I said, I don't want to be no more real actors.
Put me with some niggas, man coming herded, some motherfucking body.

Speaker 12 (01:21:25):
But what's it like to like I said, so you're
transitioning from the streets to a global superstar and then
now you're fucking around. Now you're in movies. Like, tell
me what's going through your mind during this time?

Speaker 37 (01:21:36):
Matt, You know what's crazy because I always from church,
my aunt Dad's mama, my Auntie Ellen, in church. She
used to always put us in place. She used to
always put us in theatrical ship where we have to
either play characters or memorized lines or be somebody famous
for black history. Benjamin Banneker, James Washington Carver, all kinds

(01:21:58):
of motherfuckers that we had, Frederick. We had to do
research on these people, then we have to become them,
and we have to act like them.

Speaker 3 (01:22:04):
We have to present that.

Speaker 37 (01:22:05):
Then when I went to school, I did like certain
things in school that certain classes that I took that
would give me the opportunity to give a little bit
of that.

Speaker 3 (01:22:13):
Then when I became a rapper, rappers had personality.

Speaker 37 (01:22:18):
When I came out, all of them, it was never
a dead dull rapper.

Speaker 3 (01:22:23):
Niggas couldn't just be yeah hey yeah, yeah yeah. Niggas
had personality.

Speaker 37 (01:22:28):
Look, they had style, they had all that shit that
was like flatbuoyant, like you know what I'm saying, like
that shit.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
So it's like when I got a chance.

Speaker 37 (01:22:36):
To act, I was like, I never went to act
in school, but I'm not gonna blow the opportunity. And
my reputation is. And you can ask anybody that's ever
worked with me on the movie set is Snoop Dogg
comes to the set and he knows your lines, your lines,
your lines, and his lines, and the motherfuckers flawless. I

(01:23:01):
just did a movie with Eddie Murphy, nigga, and I
ain't bragging.

Speaker 3 (01:23:05):
I'm just giving you some facts.

Speaker 5 (01:23:07):
Nigga.

Speaker 37 (01:23:08):
When we first hit the set, this the first day,
niggas say action true. My niggas say, hold on. Let
me one more time, action one more time, my damn
Snoop Dogg. You got a nigga rattled. Damn niggaos, I'm

(01:23:29):
supposed to be rattled by you, you understand me. Boom,
knock it out the park.

Speaker 3 (01:23:35):
Whooped the wool woo woop.

Speaker 37 (01:23:36):
Come back to the thing, like, nigga, you a professional
nigga the way you and to me, I ain't did
nothing but just what I'm supposed to do. What to
an onlooker, and the motherfucker's been doing this shit for
a long time. The way I do it with ease
and the way I get it done, It's like, nigga,
this is what you meant to do. Like certain niggas
on the b ball court, they just gifted. Like some

(01:23:56):
niggas gotta practice and shit and all this nifting weights
and all's extra shit that some niggas.

Speaker 38 (01:24:01):
Just like, we'll lift you doing right there, that's the
dunk on a nigga.

Speaker 3 (01:24:09):
Some niggas just got to do more than others, you
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 37 (01:24:12):
And then some niggas just naturally got it, man, Like
it's just like that, Like I look at y'all the
niggas that made it to the NBA, Right, how many
motherfuckers didn't make it?

Speaker 3 (01:24:21):
That was better than y'all.

Speaker 5 (01:24:22):
I know a lot of my partners made most of
them in jail. They were way colder than me.

Speaker 3 (01:24:26):
That's what I'm saying is just a matter of the way.
You did it at ease, and I had the favor,
but you did it at ease too.

Speaker 37 (01:24:35):
The favor gonna give it to you, but you still
got to do it at ease because if you do
it reckless and you're gonna lose favor.

Speaker 5 (01:24:40):
Yeah, I almost fucked it off a couple of times.

Speaker 1 (01:24:41):
We all almost did.

Speaker 5 (01:24:42):
It.

Speaker 3 (01:24:44):
Was sitting right here, nigga. We perfect combination.

Speaker 12 (01:24:46):
What was the best acting experience? Ords people you got
to work with and you felt was it? You just
spoke on what was that probably coming to America to
you talking.

Speaker 3 (01:24:54):
About nah dolamite?

Speaker 7 (01:24:56):
Okay, Okay, that's all the mic.

Speaker 37 (01:24:58):
But the people that I had to great experience of
working with. One of them was Fred Williamson. That's the
hammer played in super Bowl one. Played in Super Bowl one.
He was a start she and hush.

Speaker 3 (01:25:09):
He was the lieutenant.

Speaker 37 (01:25:11):
But he told me because I had a long conversation
with him, and I was like, fred, I really want
to start doing this acting thing. Heavy, What should I
you know, do it? What should I request or whatnot?
Because I just want to be good at what I do.
He said, look here, young man, let me tell you something.
When I started making movies, it was three things that

(01:25:33):
had to happen or I wouldn't fuck with the movie.
Got to win all my fights. I got to win
all my fights.

Speaker 3 (01:25:41):
That's number one. Got to fuck all the pretty girls.

Speaker 5 (01:25:46):
I'm gonna get you suck, that's what that's number two.

Speaker 37 (01:25:49):
And I got to live all three of them. Things
got to happen in the movie for me to be
in them. And I looked at every movie this nigga
was in and it's the same, and nigga beating up
niggas from the beginning, fucking the bad bitch in the middle,
and that nigga lives at the.

Speaker 3 (01:26:06):
End and in that time in the area.

Speaker 37 (01:26:09):
But just listen to me, in that time and in
real life, nigga would get beat up. We're gonna take
your bitch, and you're dead by the end of the movie.
These are three things that's happening to you. Black actors
get that part in your head. So somebody had to
create a stigma of hold on, we wanna see some

(01:26:33):
superheroes that look like us. That's where the super Fly
and the Shafts and the Black Dynamites and the Dolomites,
that's where they come from. Because it had to be
somebody that set the trend on. You're not gonna do
me like that. I'm not gonna be in it. So
that's why when I got to a certain point of
doing movies, I pulled back from Hollywood because they always

(01:26:54):
wanted to kill a nigga. They wanted me to die
in the movie. The last movie I died in Me
and John Single How to Understand, And it was like, look,
I really don't want to die in no more movies
cause because I just don't like the spirit of that ship.

Speaker 3 (01:27:06):
I like to live.

Speaker 37 (01:27:07):
He was like, Nigga, the way you're gonna die in
this movie, Nigga, you're gonna live forever.

Speaker 4 (01:27:15):
What was I to do?

Speaker 3 (01:27:16):
Nigga?

Speaker 38 (01:27:16):
Rodney from Baby Born, Welcome to the Show, Tyson Challer.

Speaker 24 (01:27:29):
Comptent, Demeanain, legendary, legendary, I know all about them.

Speaker 5 (01:27:34):
How was the hoop saying to talk about coming up?

Speaker 24 (01:27:36):
You know in that era because basketball was high school
basketball was different when we was coming up.

Speaker 5 (01:27:40):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 24 (01:27:41):
Compton the Menas is one of those schools. Talk about
that experience of you know, growing up in Compton and
playing with Compton Meaz with all those high school legends
that you play with.

Speaker 20 (01:27:49):
I think the difference back then it is like it
was like myths. Like anytime you heard about a player,
I heard about the school you it was talking was
no like YouTube or something like that, a chance to
see build it up, you know in your head or whatever.
And so for us, we built that up too because
we know everybody felt about us. So I mean we

(01:28:11):
walk in the gyms, we walk in hoodie deep. Yeah,
you know what I mean. It's like like we're gonna
We're gonna win either to fight or the game.

Speaker 5 (01:28:18):
So what is gonna be?

Speaker 20 (01:28:19):
And we came in with that type of mentality, and uh,
I mean it was a hell of an era.

Speaker 24 (01:28:25):
Tommy Prince, Jason Thomas Turn, the most dropped name ever
was all the smoke term Turn.

Speaker 5 (01:28:34):
But what was talking about we gotta got this our
term segment? What was term? Game like? Turn?

Speaker 20 (01:28:38):
Terms nice nice point guard like your term is gritty.

Speaker 12 (01:28:42):
I call him ten day term now because you swear
the Lakers gonna callis. But he's doing more gang banging
in the video and than playing basketball, Like we can't
just cuss everybody he cuts when he make a shot,
turn will come back and play pickups and start fights.

Speaker 5 (01:29:01):
We don't go there no more. Yeah, you don't come
here no more.

Speaker 20 (01:29:07):
We get somebody new from another income. Term banging up.

Speaker 7 (01:29:11):
This is our team, turn right, this is our team.

Speaker 5 (01:29:14):
Our team messing our team.

Speaker 7 (01:29:15):
I graduated four years ago.

Speaker 20 (01:29:25):
But it was I mean, you know, Tay, like you said,
Jason Thomas, I got a chance to watch. I didn't
play with Kenny or art team, but I got a
chance to watch him before I came there. And that's
really what made me want to go there. Uh you
know the culture there. Tate was like the most clean
cut out of them all, and he kind of like,
you know, set the tone of how to get to
the McDonald's, all American, how to ridle all of that.

(01:29:48):
So I knew that I wanted to go to the league.
Uh from highcho from high school, so I knew whatever
t did, Like he was he was like at the
top of the top and going to college. Like whatever
he did, I got a cutting surpassed nothing. So he said,
like a great bar for me.

Speaker 12 (01:30:04):
You had like a legendary was it junior high or
freshman year? Like a sixty minute interview?

Speaker 4 (01:30:09):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 12 (01:30:09):
Talk to us about that because there was talks. I
mean obviously it was talks, but you going to the
league at it? Was it freshman year out of high school?

Speaker 5 (01:30:16):
Give me a go ahead?

Speaker 24 (01:30:18):
Yeah, man, y'all doing sixty minutes on Sports Illustrated.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):
I'm like I should have.

Speaker 8 (01:30:26):
Damn.

Speaker 5 (01:30:26):
It's good.

Speaker 12 (01:30:28):
Talk to us about what you know obviously what that
was like, and then you know that's that that's a
huge platform at it earlier.

Speaker 20 (01:30:33):
Was honestly, I didn't. I did not know what I
was like actually doing. They said sixty minutes, wanted to
do a piece. I just thought it was like a
news channel. I didn't realize the magnitude of what it
was going to do. Because after that, I was like,
I got I got a target on my different it's different,
like you know, especially like they put that target on,
labeling you that dude, everybody's shooting for you now.

Speaker 5 (01:30:55):
And I didn't. I didn't realize that.

Speaker 4 (01:30:57):
I was.

Speaker 20 (01:30:57):
At first, it was so exciting having cameras fall and stuff.
I was like, oh, yeah, like you know, I'm that dude.
And then until you got to be that dude, and
then I was like almost embarrassed by and like embarrassed
ball and not aloriety that was coming the kid. Yeah, that's
what I'm saying. So it's like I'm battling all of
these things at the time. And you know how it
is where you know, in the in the hoop game

(01:31:18):
where you got all of the voters and everybody that's
around that you know, see where you're going, uh, and
everybody trying to have a you know, a piece r
or be the person to direct you and this and that.
But after that, it's like, yeah, it opened my name
up to the world, so everybody figured I was the
next one. So then it was like I had to
deal with more than I was already dealing with.

Speaker 24 (01:31:39):
David Hamilton aka Supercript.

Speaker 5 (01:31:43):
Talk about Supercript.

Speaker 12 (01:31:46):
I got a story about supercryptom.

Speaker 5 (01:31:49):
So so my uh so again, so I'm coming to
high school.

Speaker 4 (01:31:52):

didn't know nothing about I'm playing against them and he
was big athletic dude, right, and we're going we're going

Thing he came up was like hey, I got respect
for you, and they like dap me up and all
that and it's uh but it's funny as I had another.

Speaker 5 (01:32:51):
Clue in the super super After that. He was cool
as hell the other time.

Speaker 12 (01:32:55):
So we played in the he was my age, so
two years older than you. Yes, So we played in
the Magic Johnson roundball game and this dude got shot.
I don't know if it was a day before, but
maybe two days before.

Speaker 20 (01:33:05):
A couple of days before he got shot. I want
to say it was like the game was like a
Friday or Saturday. He got shot that Tuesday and Wednesday
and played in the game. Yeah shot where though, Yeah

to the show, Mike Brown. Going back to this knugglehead.
What was he like at twenty two twenty three?

Speaker 5 (01:33:57):
A young It was a young story line.

Speaker 16 (01:34:02):
First of all, as you know, it's a true man
right there.

Speaker 5 (01:34:06):
He's a true man. He got us great heart, He
got a great heart. His heart is off.

Speaker 16 (01:34:12):
My son's playing their little flag football and he Saturday
morning ten o'clock game.

Speaker 5 (01:34:19):
You know, we we're out.

Speaker 16 (01:34:20):
On the field cold in India. He's there with his crew.
He made his whole crew get up watch a little football.
But I got to tell I hope I got enough
time to say these stories.

Speaker 5 (01:34:33):
I hope.

Speaker 16 (01:34:35):
So the first one, and I'm would get a lot
of IM would get probably some emails and some calls.
But we used to take our team to Houston in
the summertime and our top nine ten guys would go. Now,
we go for about a week and we bright bread
work out and that's when all of the players used
to go to.

Speaker 5 (01:34:54):
Houst Sunday, yeah Funday.

Speaker 16 (01:34:57):
Because because Luke had the gym going, the gym was rocking.
So we used to keep all our players together when
we played pick up. And this is whin Tim. This
when Tim fell in love with Jack. So so we're
playing film game against most of the Rockets, and you know,
you know Tim.

Speaker 5 (01:35:13):
And David because they were both there.

Speaker 16 (01:35:15):
They both real quiet, head down guys, and you know Rockets.

Speaker 5 (01:35:18):
They talking a little smack and.

Speaker 16 (01:35:22):
And Katino threw a lib to Steve Francis or Francis
through a live to Contino.

Speaker 33 (01:35:27):
I'm inducted, and they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's run these.

Speaker 5 (01:35:30):
Bitches out of here.

Speaker 16 (01:35:32):
Jack grand the boy, he said, well want want wait
wait now, wait now, who y'all calling?

Speaker 39 (01:35:36):
Bitches, he said, because if any of us we gonna
find out whatever, we can go outside right now, Basketball.

Speaker 5 (01:35:49):
And Man and you, Tim and David they were like, yes, exactly,
exactly exactly. Loved it, Hey, Maddie.

Speaker 16 (01:35:59):
From that time on, nobody nobody said nothing to our
team like this.

Speaker 5 (01:36:08):
From then on. That's the first thing. So everybody loved.

Speaker 16 (01:36:11):
Him because he's about the team. He's about if you
on his team, he got your back.

Speaker 5 (01:36:18):
You ain't got to worry about that at all.

Speaker 16 (01:36:20):
And the second thing was, uh, if this was interesting,
it's kept my life interesting. Uh anytime we play a game,
all right, Jack, not this soon as he man, I'm okay, saying.

Speaker 5 (01:36:32):
That was too right away, soon as he fuck up,
he know the horror coming right.

Speaker 16 (01:36:46):
Okay, And he as soon as he hear that horror,
he don't eve turn look.

Speaker 5 (01:36:51):
He start cursing, and I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:36:52):
Like, oh, ship, okay, okay, I don't have to deal
with this.

Speaker 16 (01:36:55):
So Pop Pop ain't even look at him now okay,
walking just looking at Pop looking at dashing Jack walking
to Then as soon as he passed the coaches, I
know it's my job.

Speaker 5 (01:37:10):
I get up, So I go down to the end.

Speaker 16 (01:37:16):
I get my curse up the fuck that he'll be
the fun out of here.

Speaker 7 (01:37:19):
There you go.

Speaker 5 (01:37:19):
There's about so I sit there and get cursed out.
Then I'm like, okay, done. Then if he ain't done,
he'll keep going.

Speaker 16 (01:37:29):
But if he's done, if I say yeah, I'm done,
I said okay, now, now that is what you need
to do. And after he take a breath and get
After he take a breath, he know what's right and
what's wrong.

Speaker 5 (01:37:40):
He relaxed for a second.

Speaker 16 (01:37:41):
Then he go back out there and if he and
if it was bad enough.

Speaker 5 (01:37:44):
He goes. You get it out. He's blocking even coaching,

(01:38:08):
and you know what, it goes back again.

Speaker 16 (01:38:10):
It's just a testament to his heart. If he was wrong,
he'd be the first, and not just not just to
one person, like the whole group.

Speaker 5 (01:38:21):
He goes, he gonna go from a whole group.

Speaker 24 (01:38:22):
And because I didn't know no better, I didn't know,
you know what I'm saying. I was still learning. I
was going how to be a professional. You know what
I'm saying. I was on a team with a whole
bunch of guys who are the ultimate professional. I'm still learning,
you know what I'm saying. So but that was a
culture shock to go from New Jersey where you had
a whole bunch of guys who on their way out,
you know what I'm saying, Sherman Douglas. Then I go
to a team where you got stars like Tim Duncan,

(01:38:44):
Dack Robinson. But this is an organization that that's uh, everything.

Speaker 5 (01:38:49):
Is about winning. It feels like a championship here.

Speaker 24 (01:38:51):
So it was a different It was a culture shock
for me, but it was a great It was the
best thing for me because if I went anywhere else,
I wouldn't have lasted that long. But talk about it,
it just resurfaced of me calling off my wedding.

Speaker 5 (01:39:04):
My boy was there. Oh yeah, Mike was there.

Speaker 7 (01:39:08):
So you came all the way from nothing to.

Speaker 5 (01:39:13):
Nothing. Michael was holding me down, holding me down though
you know I was in the crime.

Speaker 24 (01:39:19):
I remember, I remember this Vivili bro Uh when I
called the webnam, I was to be honest, all joke
a side. I was really hurt, bro. He know I
loved that girl and I was really want to be married.
For me to take that step, but this is what
I remember vividly, and this is why I love him
and Mike Bibby's Mama. I was in the crying, like
hard down crying. Mike will be Mom came in there
and WAPs wipes not until the way with her bare hands,

(01:39:42):
and told me you became a man today. And he
came right behind her and said the same thing. You
know what I'm saying. I was, and I was what
twenty three twenty four at the time. Yeah, And I
came straight up out of it, do you know what
I'm saying? And that meant a lot, because if I
didn't have him have them there that day, I don't
know how I would have made it out of that.
You know, people can talk all this shit. Yeah, you

(01:40:03):
was a man. You did what you're supposed to do.
But I was hurt, bro, I was hurt for a
long time because I actually wanted to be married.

Speaker 7 (01:40:09):
You know, it might not have been the best thing
for you.

Speaker 5 (01:40:11):
Definitely was Definitely was in my pockets, got it?

Speaker 7 (01:40:20):
I mean obvious to getting back to important Mike and instrumental.

Speaker 5 (01:40:24):
Got too many stories.

Speaker 12 (01:40:27):
I'm gonna keep navigating, y'all. Throw y'all, Michael was one
of three people the help you get back in the league.
You guys both speak to that. This is after obviously
after the brawl Indiana.

Speaker 5 (01:40:39):
I started.

Speaker 24 (01:40:40):
So after San Antonio, I wanted my big contract. We
won championship. I felt like I deserved a big contract because,
like Mike said, they didn't look at like that.

Speaker 5 (01:40:49):
But I carried a lot of games.

Speaker 24 (01:40:51):
Game six in the West Commence Finals, we don't win
that game if I don't carry. It's the first three quarters,
so a lot. I was thinking like that in my head,
but I didn't know the business as well. You know
what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying. So if
I could rewind back, I would have took that three year,
ten year, three years, ten million dollars because I would
been on a championship team.

Speaker 5 (01:41:07):
I probably won two more championship. Then I always got
a crazy bag. That's the end out there.

Speaker 24 (01:41:11):
But I didn't understand the best of the time, so
I was upset with them not getting my bag.

Speaker 5 (01:41:15):
So I had to go to Atlanta for one year
to prove myself.

Speaker 24 (01:41:17):
I'm betting on you. I bet on myself today in
front of anybody, I'm betting on me, and I went
down balled out. But I had this in my mind
that I didn't get my big contract. But I knew
I had Mike and Rick and Indiana that was interested
in me. I had no idea I was gonna get
a contract from him, but I knew they were interested,
and I knew I had a relationship.

Speaker 5 (01:41:36):
With him, so I knew go to Atlanta and ball out.
Sure shits, think got ball out in Atlanta.

Speaker 24 (01:41:42):
They have another mid level exception available and Donnie Walshall
was hired me by then too, And I remember Mike
tell them like, we're gonna We're gonna get you over here.
And that's how it worked out for me going to Indianna,
end up getting the biggest contract ever.

Speaker 5 (01:41:54):
Had, thanks my guy.

Speaker 12 (01:41:56):
Now fast forward till thanks to you, I went running
for it.

Speaker 7 (01:42:01):
Yeah, I was running for fast forward to the brawl.

Speaker 5 (01:42:05):
Yeah, that that was crazy, man like.

Speaker 24 (01:42:07):
So so the bra situation was crazy because it seemed
like it happened from this. I'm getting Larry Barry calling
me telling me that I'm signing a big deal with Indiana,
and it seemed like the brawl happened the next day.

Speaker 5 (01:42:16):
In my mind, that's how you know what I'm saying.
I was that happened soon as I got there.

Speaker 24 (01:42:22):
In my mind, I was in the position Matt where
we're finna win the championship.

Speaker 4 (01:42:26):
Y'all was loaded.

Speaker 5 (01:42:27):
Nobody beating us, bro nobody beating us. You know, we
had Ridge on the court, but O would lineup.

Speaker 24 (01:42:32):
Was Jamal me at the two, Run at the three,
Jeff Foster at the four, Jamaine ain't nobody beating at
five at that time on both y'all lost.

Speaker 7 (01:42:41):
Y'all can fight too, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:42:43):
We was that type of team.

Speaker 24 (01:42:44):
Yeah, I can dig it so and at the time
we beaten everybody like fourteen to five or something like
the time.

Speaker 5 (01:42:50):
Probably I think so, I'm not privy to you know,
I'm not privy to the.

Speaker 24 (01:42:54):
Beef from the previous with Eastern Conference finals. So I'm
sure he wasn't surprised when I went the stands behind
run because that's just how.

Speaker 5 (01:43:04):
I am, you know what I say. That's why I
said earlier.

Speaker 16 (01:43:06):
He ain't about the team. I'm lawyer, and he knows
sometimes it could be talking so far.

Speaker 5 (01:43:12):
Ye exactly, That's just that's who he is. And when
he went, I didn't think twice the game was over.

Speaker 24 (01:43:18):
You know, we could talk about it now because people
willing to look it down and slow down the frames.
When I first win the stands. I didn't throw a punch.
Me and Mike got to run at the same time.
We both grabbed him. What made me throw that punch
was another beer was throwing it wrong face, So that's what.

Speaker 5 (01:43:35):
Made me click. If anybody look at it, I had
no intentions.

Speaker 24 (01:43:37):
I ran by thirty people and got to run, so
I had no intentions on hit nobody. But when the
second beer came, I felt like it was just it
was just too disrespectful. That and that's what happened. But
this is the funny part. What we don't talk about.

Speaker 5 (01:43:51):
This motherfucker went off after the game, so doing the scuffling.

Speaker 24 (01:43:56):
Somebody fucking around the elbow him. Bus just lit. So
we're in the locker room. We are, and let me
tell you something, but I'm trying to.

Speaker 7 (01:44:07):
Bring your mother.

Speaker 5 (01:44:12):
Hold on and come Rick, so read it came coming there.

Speaker 16 (01:44:16):
Yeah, mother, We kind of breaking out.

Speaker 5 (01:44:24):
Jamaine, they were grabbed Jaun there about. They came in
and going on.

Speaker 2 (01:44:29):
So it came to one point with Jamain stood up.

Speaker 24 (01:44:32):
All we check with the culture because he got hit
the MAMO, you know what I'm saying. So it was
the emotions were highest the time, but I knew that.
Like yesterday, dog, the emotions.

Speaker 16 (01:44:45):
Was high, and it was not till it until they
came in and said, okay, we're gonna rest.

Speaker 5 (01:44:49):
Remember they said they gonna rest two players and one
coach was like.

Speaker 11 (01:44:53):
Rest.

Speaker 24 (01:45:00):
It got serious, It got serious, and it got serious
when they came to Baron killed the whole everything. When
he asked me was to go get trouble. When he
said that, bro, the whole locker was like, oh, come
on in trouble.

Speaker 21 (01:45:13):
You ain't playing no more this year. That we'll be
here all day. We'll be here all day, all day.
But I love you, Mike.

Speaker 24 (01:45:28):
I never I never got a chance to tell you
this on camera publicly, but you know how my mom
and how I feel about you. How from the opportunities
you gave me to to San Antonio to where you
embraced me as like a little brother in the somewhere
I was in the league to be able to tutor me,
and even when I wasn't playing on your team, you
still made phone calls and make sure I was straight,
still checked on me. So that meant a lot to me,

(01:45:50):
because you know badly making into the league and the
road I took you didn't have that many coaches that
actually cared about me or my family or to come
to my web to the leaves like that. So you
made it a point to show me that you cared
about fighting played for you. So I love you forever
and I appreciate everything.

Speaker 5 (01:46:07):
Coach.

Speaker 16 (01:46:08):
I love it too, man, and I can say the
same for you in a lot of different instances. More importantly, though,
some times you showed up Saturday morning to support my boys.

Speaker 7 (01:46:21):
They had a hug. They had a hug today. I'm like,
how you know him? I started thinking, like a nice embrace, bro.
I was like, okay, brother, Yeah, that's dope.

Speaker 12 (01:46:35):
Coming to you from Dallas. Set the tone with with
the boss man, mister Mark Cuban, and now we got
one of the greatest to ever do.

Speaker 5 (01:46:42):
It, Jack Dennis Rodman had a brief stand here. What
was that?

Speaker 22 (01:46:46):
Like?

Speaker 4 (01:46:47):
I was wild. I mean.

Speaker 40 (01:46:50):
I'm a big Chicago Bulls fan in the nineties there obviously,
so he was. He was one of my heroes. And
then you know, Q spot the team the second my
second year, halfway through and he's like, you know, we
need to make a splash here, we need to get
on the map. This is a Cowboys Town and I
want to bring the the Mavericks back. I think I'm

(01:47:10):
gonna sign Dennis Rodman and we're like, are you serious?
But he ended up doing it and it was it
was quite an experience, so he uh every time. So
as a team meeting, we usually meet with Nelly obviously
with forty minutes before the game. So the first game
we have Dennis Robmin we're all kind of like excited

(01:47:32):
he's starting. So forty minute rolls around. He gets up,
new it's about to start the film. Robin gets up
and goes take a shower, Like okay, so he comes back.
He didn't see the video, he doesn't know the coverages,
so he just goes out and kind of does Sometimes
he squeezes, sometimes he hedges a little bit, sometimes he

(01:47:52):
does nothing. So I was like, okay, maybe he just
did it one time. Second game, forty minutes on o'clock,
he gets up, showers, so he missed all the pregame
meetings before the game and had no idea about the
coverages that we're doing and kind of did his own thing,
And I was like, that was just his routine. At
forty minutes before the game, he was he was showering,

(01:48:13):
and then and then after the game, he would just
put his own gear on and would go lift hard
for like an hour and a half, two hours. Wouldn't wouldn't,
wouldn't be with the team, would just be fine, fine,
his his workout room and he had his little workout coach,
and then they were just lifting heavy for like an
hour and a half after the game. And then he
just put on a cowboy hat with these long feathers,

(01:48:34):
didn't shower and just walked right out the arena. And
it was and then media scrum would chasing him and
he's and he's mumbling something is it was a comedy
side show. And then it just wouldn't work. It wasn't
working well that those couple of games he was here.
And but it was definitely a splash. I mean, you
know that the arena was full, and he got kicked

(01:48:58):
out of one game. He sat on the court for
a while and the rest didn't want to throw him out.
I mean, there was a lot of stuff happened, which
which was a cool experience for me, I guess as
a young guy growing up. But it just basketball wise,
it just unfortunate.

Speaker 12 (01:49:11):
Didn't brief stint when you first got the team Dennis Rodman, Yeah, day,
what was that?

Speaker 7 (01:49:16):
What was that like? And did he really stay with
you or is that just urban legend?

Speaker 5 (01:49:19):
No, it's true.

Speaker 29 (01:49:21):
He had lost his driver's license and so I have
a I have a guest house behind my house.

Speaker 5 (01:49:26):
I'm like, just stay there.

Speaker 7 (01:49:28):
I can take you there.

Speaker 5 (01:49:30):
It was funny. I loved you that, right.

Speaker 29 (01:49:32):
He was just and he would come up to my
house and he would just sit there watching cartoons all
day for real, you know. Or he'd sneak Carmen a
lecture through the back door back to the guesthouse. But
he was a cool dude, right. But you know, we
had a team vote because we couldn't rebound at all,
and I We're like, well he's a rebounder and he
needs a job, and the guys Nelly had the guys

(01:49:55):
vote on they said yes, and I never We were
playing Sack one game and he was supposed to guard
a s Webber and now he's like guards Chris Weber
and instead of guarding him, he just pointed at sea
web and see what, Boom hits a jumper. But you
can't hit that again. Boom And the other guys.

Speaker 14 (01:50:12):
Like, what going on.

Speaker 5 (01:50:14):
Yeah, that was the end of it.

Speaker 29 (01:50:16):
So let me just tell you I learned more from
Dennis Rodman about PR marketing than I learned in any
NBA class, anything I've ever done. The man was a
master of marketing in like he knew.

Speaker 5 (01:50:32):
Like we'd go place he was still super hot.

Speaker 29 (01:50:35):
Then we go someplace and there'd just be masses of
people that were just excited to see him, and you know,
he'd be like, Okay, you just got to keep on
refreshing and coming up with new stuff and letting people.

Speaker 5 (01:50:45):
Know you're going to be there.

Speaker 29 (01:50:47):
And so him and Paris Hilton are my two like
marketing and PR googles, But d R. D rod was
like a machine. He knew exactly what he was doing.

Speaker 12 (01:50:58):
You, it's good they've been asking for you.

Speaker 24 (01:51:05):
Before we dive into music. You know, we gotta touch this.
You say he was top of twenty five ninety four, hard.

Speaker 5 (01:51:15):
Breathing, like, I'm just saying, I'm just saying. I'm just saying.

Speaker 24 (01:51:17):
I seen I seen him tell Mace he blew the
game for us and all that, and and I didn't
believe him until until I shot him and I saw
the footage.

Speaker 5 (01:51:26):
I saw the push he blew it.

Speaker 11 (01:51:28):
No, I missed a shot. He wanted me to pass it, but.

Speaker 5 (01:51:31):
Yeah, you blew it.

Speaker 24 (01:51:31):
But he said, he said, you blew the game. But
you said if you would have passed him, he wasn't
gonna make it anyway I had.

Speaker 5 (01:51:38):
I had nineteen points, had two points.

Speaker 7 (01:51:42):
You gotta go some market, I gotta I'm cooking.

Speaker 11 (01:51:45):
At the most points in the game, like makes my man,
don't get it fucked up because because you know why,
like this ship comes up like twice a month. I'm like, yo,
you really you're on this type of time. But yo,
my nigga, look you gotta realizing. He'll say he was,
you know, he did it for the sake of the team.
But a year older than me. He a junior, a

(01:52:05):
sophomore when I was his junior year. My sophomore year,
I started, and you come off the bench like he was. Yeah,
So I'm like, am I starting over?

Speaker 4 (01:52:17):
Young men?

Speaker 5 (01:52:17):
Ye're younger than he talked about genobally did it for
the sake.

Speaker 7 (01:52:20):
Of the team, that's.

Speaker 5 (01:52:24):
So yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:52:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (01:52:26):
If I got look, man, you know, if I got
nineteen points, he got two points. They shooting free throws.
We a massive square guard and that game is a
massive square guarden. This is a real NBA court. So
you all the way up to court. The niggas missed
the free throw as soon as you get there. I
got to be bad.

Speaker 5 (01:52:43):
I'm going I'm not running to play. I'm not looking.
I'm looking.

Speaker 11 (01:52:46):
I'm dribbling, literally looking at the clock. Take down. You know, Yeah,
he ain't square game, bro, Like, man, we're.

Speaker 5 (01:52:54):
Gonna win or we're gonna lose.

Speaker 11 (01:52:56):
On my merit, I'll take that. But yeah, he's that
up twice a fucking month still today, even when she
don't got done to do a basketball. Like when we're
doing the show cam you see passing me we win,
I'm like no, because he helped. You know, we negotiated
our deal for the show. He was far of negotiation

(01:53:17):
and we got you know, the underdog took care of us.
When you passed to me, we win. You see what
makes leave me the fuck alone about the game already? Fine,
I should have passed the ball, bro, But Max was
really good too. It's just it's really gard orientated and
during that time, like you know, we're playing against stuff
on Marlbury at the time. Felipe Lopez was there at

(01:53:38):
the time.

Speaker 12 (01:53:38):
You know, it was speaking to cut you off, speak
to Felipe because he had a lot of game and
never really materialized.

Speaker 7 (01:53:43):
But he had a whole lot of game.

Speaker 11 (01:53:46):
He's all right, he's like, you know what it is.
I'm being honest with you. First of all, we don't
know how old Felippe is. He comes from Dominicans birth certificate,

(01:54:08):
so we don't know. My man with the rice with
Felipe right there, that's as yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:54:14):
We really don't know how old Felipe Lopez is.

Speaker 11 (01:54:17):
Now, I tell you this much, New York, especially Manhattan
has a big Dominican community, like talking about a big
Dominican community. Now, Felipe, I'm not gonna say and say
he wasn't good. I'd rather take stuff than Felipe if
you asking me my person question. But no, they was
hyping it. Yeah, yeah, that Felipe's it's better than stuff.

(01:54:38):
He's a year older as far as grade wise. But
he was good. But it was the hype behind. And
that's why to me and the materialize it in the
NBA because look, you go to the game. I'm not
even exaggerating. I don't know if y'll ever been in
the like Broadway in Amsterdam and New York. Probably Jackass
have been everywhere this old Dominicans, Yoe. So when you

(01:55:00):
go to these games, they come with guitars, they come
with being Joe's, they come with with xylophones. Facts are
not bro ya. He went to He was the mascot
at Rights, my man.

Speaker 5 (01:55:16):
That's a fact.

Speaker 11 (01:55:17):
Though these niggas come, yeah niggas like so when I'm
talking about these niggas, the half the arena or whoever
nigga's performing at was uh filled with Dominican people, which
was great support because it wasn't like a Dominican basketball
player at the time coming out of New York. So

(01:55:38):
his hype was crazy. And I'm not gonna say and
say he wasn't good. He was good, but the hype
behind it was it was a hype. Traine like to
keep it a buck.

Speaker 5 (01:55:47):
You know.

Speaker 11 (01:55:48):
It showed when he got the Saint John's. You know,
as soon as you get to see Yeah, you wouldn't
have been there all four years with the hype he had.
You know what I'm saying, he should have been with
Kevin Garnett, did yeah or not been going.

Speaker 5 (01:56:00):
They wanted him.

Speaker 11 (01:56:00):
They talk about the Knicks taking him straight from Rice
and nobody was really doing that at the top. KG
kind of broke that code.

Speaker 5 (01:56:08):
Was on sports illustrating high school all that exactly.

Speaker 11 (01:56:11):
That's a fact, you know. I'm telling you. I remember
looking at the newspaper and they talk about the Knicks
may give Philippe. Then when he got the Saint John's
you just seen. Niggas wasn't with that, especially when you
that nigga is supposed to be that nigga. Niggas can't
wait to kill you. Y'all.

Speaker 5 (01:56:25):
Niggas know like better than anybody, like, Oh.

Speaker 11 (01:56:28):
Like I don't really know what uh who y'all played
against college or high school, but I'm pretty sure that
it was a nigga that Jay was like, Oh that's
y'all king back. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying.
So that's kind of how it felt. When it came
to Felipe. I thought he was good, but if I
had to pick, I would have picked Steph. That was

(01:56:50):
like a pure point guard. He had brothers that played
before him. He was really good. Felipe was decent, but
he was just toler and no disrespect. He had the
Dominican culture with him. Yeah, exactly, that hype trading, that
whole joint. I must felipe as. When I played to
I played them and stuff Marbury and skipped the my

(01:57:12):
Loup shout out to Rafael Austin and my niggas. But
when I played it was the same thing, like telling
you like this, so y'all love this, so you're life.
You know it's funny me and stuff Marlborough. You one day,
was that niggas funny? We was arguing on Instagram or Twitter,
one of them since I said, Steph, every time I

(01:57:33):
played you, I busted your ass. Bro every single time
I said every time, I said, matter of fact, let
me specified what I said.

Speaker 5 (01:57:40):
Let me be vert beta. I said, Steph, every time
I played against your high school I bust your ass.
He said, exactly, you're still a high school basketball. That
sounds like something Wop was saying. I said, I said,
you won, hey, but I'm glad you said that.

Speaker 24 (01:58:02):
He is one of the most underrated NBA players of
all time. The numbers he put up is no reason
he shouldn't have been the first ballot Hall of Fame.

Speaker 5 (01:58:10):
That's incredible, crazy. All the times niggas get kind of
loved for what they do off.

Speaker 11 (01:58:14):
The career, the narrative or exactly.

Speaker 5 (01:58:18):
You know, y'all two guys narrative. Yeah, y'all understand. You
got a.

Speaker 12 (01:58:31):
Google like, where's you said? So tell us tell us
your Dre Miller story.

Sean kemp Man.

Speaker 12 (02:01:38):
Ninety six, you finally break through, you sweet dream and
Clyde beat Stocked in them alone in seven.

Speaker 7 (02:01:47):
You get to Mike. You're avenue twenty three and ten
in the finals. What was that? We got GP side.
We had GP a couple of years ago.

Speaker 12 (02:01:53):
GP said, if GP said, if they would have put
him on or mj earlier, y'all would have won it.

Speaker 42 (02:02:00):
Yeah, Gary was having he had. They had a couple
of little injuries he had, so they didn't want to
exert him at first. Uh, they put Detla on Michael Jordan,
which didn't go well. I mean, I mean, look at it.
DeLand was a great player. I mean he is man.
I don't think it was fair to him all of
a sudden. You know, you come on, you know what

(02:02:21):
I'm saying. If anything, you pull somebody off the bench
and pull on Michael Jordan, they can just waste files
and be physical with him. But you know, you come
out there being soft with Michael. He's gonna take advantage
of you. And that's exactly what happened. But Michael wasn't
the reason he didn't beat us in the championship. He
did not beat us. Man we we we was on
his ass. Well, he didn't beat us. Dennis Robbins is
the one who we had no answer for him as man.

(02:02:45):
Really we had no answer for Dennis Robins. I mean
every time that they needed a second shot or something special,
extra rebound or tip in. This motherfucker was flying and
winking and I mean wincing and testing and ship straighten
everybody on the team. Man's not even like that. He
just do that ship. Just you just doing that ship

(02:03:06):
he had, you know, my team just flustered.

Speaker 7 (02:03:08):
Man, what kind of ship would he do?

Speaker 1 (02:03:10):
Uh?

Speaker 42 (02:03:11):
I'm gonna tell you what. Frank McCosky man dinner this morning,
didn't started wearing color contacts the championship. He started wearing
color color contacts in the Championship with some lip ship
on man. He would be like he was trying to
kiss Frank's arm and shipped and then Frank just couldn't

(02:03:31):
take it. Man, it was just the man and him
just couldn't allow it. Dinner's new with buttons to push, man,
and we need to freak the rebound ship. He got
him all discombobilated. Man. So yeah, my god, absolutely, man,
Dennis Robber, I was his defense man, well me, I

(02:03:52):
mean his defense was good, wasn't. I mean he wasn't
too big for dinner, right, you know what I'm saying,
I'm a little bit too big for Dennis. I don't
think that's a fair agile. But his defense was great, man.
Like I said, he was just tipping the ball and
rebounding high knee and doing all this silly ship man,
all the ship that you hate to see.

Speaker 7 (02:04:13):
And they need it.

Speaker 42 (02:04:14):
Yeah, that's exactly what they need, man. Scotty piping is
great man. You know, I played with Pippen in Portland.
I just say this, but sometimes they people don't get
pipping his props. But Scottie Pippen was gonna be good
ball player without Michael Jordan. He would have been a
quality ball player without Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan definitely made
him a little bit better. But my man, Scottie Pippen

(02:04:36):
was still balling when he was in Portland. You know,
he wasn't no match for Kobe when we was playing
right back then. Yeah, you know Kobe. But Scotty was
still balling man. He could still play the pass and lanes.
He's never been a great shooter, but he's just been
athletic to do a lot of different things, you know,
past scoring, rebounding, that's his game.

Speaker 7 (02:04:58):
Talk What was Mike like in the those finals? Talking
just straight about business? What was it like?

Speaker 42 (02:05:03):
And well, we played Mike in the finals. We were
trying to engage with him a lot man. We really
wanted him. We wanted physicality, we wanted to uh, we
were trying to test him, but he wasn't.

Speaker 5 (02:05:19):
He wasn't going for it. He was focused all right.

Speaker 7 (02:05:22):
Here was a picture right there.

Speaker 42 (02:05:25):
No, that's that's Gary. Gary was letting him know that
he was getting in his ass. Because that's when they
didn't put they took Gary. They took de Las off.
Michael put Gary on. So Gary, you know, I used
to run down the court. I'd be and I'd be
like showing the glove. I'd be like the glove. Garyol
giving his back the ball away and gave him flashy

(02:05:46):
glove to that's you see Michael looking back at flashing
that glove side. He didn't like that ship. That's the ship.
That's the ship. That's the ship there. That's you had
to get Michael going. Man, when you see that look
right there, you got some problems coming back because now
he don't want to talk to you. Now he got
something to prove to you. He got another problem.

Speaker 7 (02:06:05):
Get a chance to know Mic off the court, not
so much.

Speaker 42 (02:06:08):
Off the court, but definitely battles on the court. Man,
definitely battles on the choir respecting. I got a lot
of mad respect for the matter. You know, I've seen
people be physical with Mike. I've seen him have a
game plan to stop him. He altered his game plan
every night. You couldn't stop him. Is he the best

(02:06:30):
to ever played the game?

Speaker 5 (02:06:31):
No? Who is? I mean?

Speaker 42 (02:06:36):
People get mad at me when I say this, spell
but Bill Russell, Russell, Bill Russell, you know what I'm saying.
The best to ever played the game is not gonna
be the lead scorer. Be'st to play the game is
gonna be one. It's gonna be in the middle doing
a lot of different things because he's gonna be able
to help people out keep the ball and play Bill

(02:06:58):
Russell was the first one blocking shots, keeping the you
know we was blocking shots doing that Ship seventeen rolls
up in the stairs. He was actually blocking shots and
they was actually getting fucking layups off of him. So absolutely, man.
I you know, as I look through the years of basketball,
I think Will Chairman was a beast, but Ship Bill
Russell was wearing his ass up. So let's keep it real.

(02:07:19):
If you're talking about the all around best player of
the game, you look and see how many championships they won,
how long they did it. He's got to be up there, bro,
