Speaker 1 (00:00):

Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's all calouber Man. You know, were praying for him. Man,
I love my dog man.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
I just met him.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
By love him. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
I hope he gets watched up see him cleaning up
from outside.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Tonight rattles in another triple.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Take it over here tonight, the first in the career.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
I'm yo, what's up, y'all? Is Tyree Speck with MAXI
on the mic. Today we have a special guest. I
have a good guess for y'all. We have the second
best tyres in the NBA.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
I have to say.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Second.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
That's just how it goes. Preparing the nation works. But first,
we're gonna catch up a little bit catch up about
you know, from the season. It's been a while since
we talked so in the past couple of weeks, so
we're gonna catch up a little bit on that and.
Speaker 5 (00:49):
Uh yeah, here we go. All right.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
First up, we gotta talk about it. You know, I
tried my best not to talk about it that I
don't like talking about myself, but I had to talk
about that. Fifty is crazy, Okay, I'm talking. I was
a little a little shocked and not shocked that I
actually could score fifty. This shock that I actually went
out there and did it. Like you know what I mean.
Confidence is how I believe in myself, So like scoring
(01:16):
fifty wasn't like an ability thing. It was just like
a wow, I actually went out there and did it.
I actually went for it.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
To MV.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Well, no, the first.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
A career.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
I'm telling I think I had to shout out to
Joel and Tobias and those guys because now I think
they wanted me to score fifty more than I wanted
to score fifty. But uh, now I appreciate them. I mean,
it's my confidence and the team's confidence in me is
on another level, and I appreciate them for that. It's
it's been great. And ever since I scored fifty, you know,
(02:03):
not even since I scored fifty, just since the start
of the year, I've been having to learn like new
ways that the defenses are guarding me. They trying to
do a lot of different things like force me left trapped.
Then now I play physical, make it extremely tough for
me to catch the ball, and I had to adapt
to it. You know, I've been to have to be
more physical, lift a little bit more weights, we'll be
(02:24):
able to be strong with the ball, try to finish
through contact, shoot pull ups and step back and stuff
like that more.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
But that's all.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
That's great, And yeah, the fifty pieces. Crazy Chick fil
A had a fifty piece fifty piece nugget.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
You know that was cool.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
The balloons, Ma, Ma.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
You know, I tell you this last thing I say
about this a video my mom seen me a video.
They were all watching the game together, my sister, my nieces.
It was their birthday, both my sisters, actually my grandmother's
and then my dad. So everybody's screaming, ah, Terry's great
gay fifty and my dad he's just sitting there with
(03:01):
his arms forty and straight faced like like, I'm like,
what could I have done better? I literally had fifty
in the NBA. Like, but like, that's just how my
dad is.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I appreciate it for that because that just makes me
so much better and has so much more confidence in
myself because my dad he expects these things out of me,
and that just shows where I am as a player.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
But anyways, a lot of people have also been asking
me that a topic of the fifty piece, A lot
of people have been asking me about Joelle calling me
the franchise.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
To be honest, you probably.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Just taken this late a year ago, two years ago,
because I've been telling them to walk out the food
for a long time. But I'm happy that he did it.
But you know, that's just not it's not about me.
That's not about the trailer. You know, that's someone that
wants to but he just wants to get better and
wants to learn. He's willing to learn and listens. Extremely
(03:56):
humble artist. I've always said the hardiest walking, you know, pressing.
I've ever been Ali and I saying something and you
know he doesn't, you know, take place off. He always
find some money got out of Obviously he's doing great,
but I think he has a he has an even
(04:17):
blinder future. I think you know, you can't get to
the level of uh you know, so you know, no
dolphins got a good one.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
It's all be here for a long time man.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Like I said, And a lot who won't know where
that came from? How that come about?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So funny story is so one day I was messing
Joel when I was my second year. He posted a
picture of us and I'm like, bro, like you could
have you got seven million followers? Like tag me in
the phunno, like help your brother, help a boy out,
Like I'm trying to get my name out there too.
So after I pressed him, kind like not really pressing,
(04:55):
but like mess with him about it. I'm joking, like
I don't really care, but I'm joking. He is after
a game played Boston. Is after the Boston game, and
he asked the media, like the media team to find
him a picture of like right there on the spot
of the game of the game with us out there
on the court together doing anything in the same picture,
(05:18):
and he tags me and puts the franchise.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
We all know Joel is the troll. You know, he
just who he is, troll. It's just who he is.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
And it's like at the time he was trolling, you
know what I mean, just messing with me, like because
I was at that time that's when you know, we
had the you know, being wasn't playing, so I was
holding like, you know, stepping in for him. So he
was messing around, saying I was saving the franchise, and
he kept calling me the frenchise. Now, when I'm walking
around and feeling and I see people, they yelling out
(05:46):
the franchise. It's like, oh my god. I try to
like I'm a very like misserved person. I'm half of you,
but like when it comes to like myself, I just
want to be nice and called. I don't like. I
don't like all that attention off the court.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
But that's where that came from.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Do I like it?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I'm used to I just know Joe was gonna call
me that, and he's going to gas in the media
as well, So it's like, I'm used to it. I
don't bother me. They just called me ty Reese. I
would like that too, though, franchise, that's a lot. It's
a hard name.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
That's a hard name.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Look at this as the basketball stuff. We're on a
game win streak.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
We're on the a game win streak that was after
the Milwaukee game, eight game win streak, and we had
a lot of fun while doing it. One of the
hottest teams in the nba U during that stretch and
the first throughout the first ten games of the season,
the first eleven games of the season, and you know,
we had some hiccups. You know, Kelly goes down, you
know Nick was out a little bit too. So whenever
(06:48):
you have any hiccups in your lineup, especially you know,
and key parts of the lineup, it makes it difficult
to win games. You don't you never never never there
with the NBA. You notice the stuff's gonna happen. People
gonna get you know, they're gonna have to sit out
because of the injuries and because they're hurt. Because the
eighty two game season, it's the grueling season, and we
love it, you know, that's why we do it.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
But losing those two guys, it's hard for us.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
And then playing Indiana in a little series game where
they play at the fastest paced. So we played them
the first night, you know, getting up and down. We
were able to win that game. But Tyre Tyler Burn,
who we're going to have on him in the minute.
He comes back the next game he had I think
twenty five and seventeen the first game, comes back and
has like thirty three and sixteen Albert himself. So it's like,
(07:38):
man like, you know, we play, he plays well the
first game, we beat him, he plays even better the
second game. So that's just a testimony to how good
our league is, especially at the point guard position. The
guard position. A guy like Tyree's is special. He's special,
and he's a he's a difficult cover. And I you know,
we take we take the challenges on and be taken
on heavy.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
But then we played Boston off a back to back out.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
They're playing against tar Res in the place of the
fastest face the lead, and that's just tough. That's tough,
and that's you know, that's what just would come with it.
And uh, you know, you can't make excuses. I think
both of those games we had an opportunity to win
the game. Probably should have won both of those games.
The crazy thing games We've lost three games this year,
every single game I feel like we should have won.
That's a good thing. Like there was no games where
(08:23):
we have just been out talented, you know what I mean,
like the talent in fact that it was too far
apart or we just didn't have it that night. We
always found our way to fight to the end of
the games. And I think we're in a good place,
a great place right now. I think coach Nurse is
doing really well with just managing the team, managing guys, guys,
(08:43):
knowing the road, guys, know what we're trying to look for.
He has guys really competing right now. I feel like,
you know, the competition level is high. We want to
win every single game, and his whole model of expect
to win has really we really embraced it, and I
think that's been really good for us.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
I think that's going to be good for us when
it comes down the stretch. So that's been great.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Offensively, a lot of people have been talking about the
two man game and the duo that me and Joel
bring before I even get onto that.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
We can't have that two man game.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Without guys like Tobias, guys like Melt, guys like Kelly,
guys like Patun who are able to space for whoever
to do.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Great on their own.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
And because that we have those special talents on the
court with us that we're able to they're able to
cause so much attention that allows me and Joelle to
play two man game. We'll be able to play two
man games. I think the connection has just it's grown.
It's grown because we watch a lot of film together.
Drew sends us film. Joelle just wants to be He
(09:44):
wants to be great. He wants me to be great.
He wants us to be great as a team, and
for us, we be gra as a team. We have
to be great together. And I think he's really bought
into the whole system of Nick Nurse wanting everybody touched
the ball to play more free, less ice, a faster pay,
it's more dribble hand dolls. And Joel has gotten himself
in shape and he's been able to do it and
it's been really good for us so far.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
I think.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
We talked about how Halerberry and beat us talk a
little about how the Celtics beat.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
US h Derek White hits hits big shots.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Derek White's a good basketball player, and then Jason Tatum,
he's a Jayson Tatum. I think, you know what's crazy
and I probably this probably shouldn't be said, but I
as a Sixers player, really it's like I feel the
rivalry with the Celtics. I can feel it like I
(10:36):
don't like the Celtics, you know what I mean? Like
I love competing against the Celtics. I love like playing
against them. That like the seven game series was amazing.
It's like every time you play against them, like the
the tension gets like more and more every single game.
It's like if you play for the Sixers, you play
for the Celtics. You have to feel it and you
feel it in the building. Like our fans hate the Celtics,
(11:00):
the Celtics fans hate us. So it's like it's really
good though. It's good for sports, it's good for basketball,
it's good for competition. JT hit some big shots on
us and Derek Whye did as well.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
So that series is for the for the season so
far as one one.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
So I will definitely see them two more times and
you know, we'll try to get the best of them.
But now that we've caught up a little bit over
the past couple of weeks of the NBA, now we're
going to get into the other tyres now, mister Tyree
tolebrit And it'd be fun. It should be fun, it
should be a great conversation. Great listen, Uh, stay tuned
(11:36):
and stay here for walking all right, Like our promise,
we have an interesting guest for today's podcast on Maxim.
(11:57):
On the right, we have my guy, Tyreee Haliburton the
other times the second best tyres.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
But man welcome Tyri's ronovlud Foss twenty twenty three NBA
All Star Tyre's Tylerbury.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
Appreciate you, FAM, thanks for having me, Thanks for having me.
Twenty twenty four All Star. I'm on this podcast. I'm
excited about it.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Let's go, There we go, There we go.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Hey, First things first, all right, this is post doubleheader
Indiana Philly Game one. I think first of all, I
listen to exactly Tyre's Halliburton is. I'm sorry, but he's
probably the best pastor that we have in our league today.
I don't think it's close. I'm just gonna start with this.
(12:44):
There was a play in the first game. Ty Ree
drove all the way down in the paint. He didn't
like what he saw in the paint, jumped up, did
it three sixty, kicked it out to I think Obi
topic and he made it three. I said, what is
going on? I have like there's no possible that he
seen him, Like, where do you where is this passing creativity?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Like where does this come from? I really have to
know this.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
When I was growing up, I just never scored, FAM,
So like I just I just like got used to
passing all the time, and that was like how I
just played basketball, And now, like you know, coming to
the NBA, my job was the same thing.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Just passed past past shoot corner.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
Threes when Fox passed it to me, and then when
I got traded, Uh, I was like forced to score.
And obviously we know we both work with Drew like
who he is the person he's always on me to
score more So that's kind of become a new a
new part of my game. But I've just always that's
just who I am. I'm a past first guy.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, And it's like last year, like you've you've changed
like so much, honestly, like your aggressiveness, like you've always,
like you said, you'll have been a great passer.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
But like last year beginning of the year, you know,
I was messed with you. Probably remember this. I was
messed with you.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
I had to guard you, and I was like, you're
gonna get he's gonna get all his assists in the
first half and get tennis in the first half, and
he's going to try to score the rest of the game.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
But now it's like I don't know, like.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
If you're gonna shoot, if you're gonna pack, I have
to like and it's like it's so frustrated as a defender,
I'm like I don't really like I really don't know
how to like to stop him. He's coming so fast.
He's going at you so fast. It's like you can't
really ice him, you can't wake him if you like,
what is that Like? Is that a coach call out?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
I think?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Or is that like a tyree's thing? Like you know,
y'all get it out, you know how y'all want to play?
Like where did that come from?
Speaker 4 (14:31):
I think it's funny because I do remember exactly what
you're talking about, Like ten sais the first half, we
start half, at halftime, you're all are you about to shoot?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Now you're about to shoot?
Speaker 5 (14:39):
You were the first person to point that out to me,
and then George talk to me about it. He was like, yo,
stop manipulating the game. And I'm like, what are you
talking about?
Speaker 4 (14:46):
And he's like, you passed the whole first half, then
you shoot those second half And I never thought about
it that way, but I always thought that, but then
after the season, like reflecting on it, I would always
go halftime with like tennis sis whatever. Then I look
at my phone and Drew's texted me like you need
to shoot the ball, and I'm like, oh, yeah, you're right,
I do need to shoot. And it's kind of that
figuring out that balance between you know, shooting and scoring.
(15:07):
It's like every game trying to figure out the right
balance between it. But I know that sometimes if I
go to I've had games early this year too, it's
like I have four points a half, six points a half,
two points a half, And that's like that's affecting us
because if I'm not scoring, then everybody's playing me to
pass and and then it's just it's just affecting the
way we play. So if I'm like keeping defenses on
(15:27):
is doing both, it helps. But yeah, I think just
that that that balance has been talked. That's talking self talk,
drew a halftime.
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Talk, Carlisle talk. It's like all those things coming into one.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
That's that's where you mess me up at a lot
of it. Just like this is the most recent game
that we that y'all just beat us. Like the first
game we were playing, we were trying to take you
away as the scores, like like the beginning of the game,
you just passing, getting guys in balls. So we were
kind of able to like you know, slow you down
a little bit score wise. The second game, it's like
you just came out. It was like, no I'm going
(16:00):
to be the one to set the tone today. I'm
going to shoot you had like three four threes and
now that's when you you know, I think that's when
you have defense in the buying because like, all right,
he's being ultra aggressive and we know he can score
the ball as well.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Like for me, like i've been you know, it's funny.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I've been watching some of your film now because I'm
playing full time point guard, you know what I mean,
Like I haven't done that since high school, so it's
a lot different from you know, we both know from
high school, college and NBA. We have a lot of
different players. I've just been watching a lot of your
film just because the way you see the game. You know,
we have different playstyles as far as like our team
like Joelle. We know Joell not hard rolling like mom,
(16:40):
like you know what I'm saying, but just the way
that you read the game, the way that you find passes,
and it's like the way you get downhill be never
to spray out.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Me.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Just watching a little bit of your film, I feel
like I've taken some of that, you know what I mean.
Like I've been able to pass the ball, I've been
able to not get the turnovers, And how would you
explain to somebody who doesn't know how to play, like
who has never played the NBB basketball game, you know
what I'm saying, Like, how would you explain them playing
the point guard role? Because I think right now you
are the prototype. You know what I'm saying, You are
(17:07):
with you know, if you're a past first point guard
that can score, you know what I mean, Like a
great example for it in our lead.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
Yeah, I think, uh No, I think what you're saying
makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Like I'm obviously more of the classic point guard in
terms of getting people involved.
Speaker 5 (17:24):
But like, I think the game is transitioning.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
We have so many pgs that can score at such
a high level, like yourself, Steph Luca, Like these are
guys who are can get thirty every night. I think
all three you guys are avaging like thirty right now,
you know. So it's just trying to figure out the
right the right balance between the two. But I think
my job on my team it's a little different because
my job is just to keep everybody, Like our job
is a point guard is keep everybody happy, you know
(17:47):
what I mean. Like, you got to understand like if
Joel's coming, send screens for your miles coming, set screens
for me, And I got to give him a bone here.
I got to hit him on the roll. He's got
to see I gotta throw it to him. Or like
for you, it's Betom. For me, it's like Bruce Brown, Like,
all right, they guarding the best player and they working
their butt off defensively.
Speaker 5 (18:04):
I got to hit them when they open.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Get them open the shop.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Yeah, Like feeling engaged. Feeling engaged.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
I was always told as a kid, like being a
point guard, just like being the mom of the team,
Like your mom job is to keep all their kids happy.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Like that's our job with our teammates, you know. So
I think that that's the biggest thing.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Is just understanding people's body language, understanding what people are thinking.
That's the biggest thing, because you just want to make
sure everybody happy, because that's how you keep people in
the right spots, doing the right things right.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
And it's just like just I've never heard of that analogy,
like the momb of the team, and it's now I
think about it. You do have to kind of keep
everybody's motions and check and then you're the coach on
the floor. So sometimes you got to talk to the
coach and tell them what you see. And it's like
me just picking your brain right now. It's like I
can already see where your mind comes from. I can
already see like how you see the game. And it's
(18:49):
like it's a beautiful thing, man, Honestly, I can just
appreciate it. Man, it's And you know, the next thing
I want to say is like we became friends just
because out of both our names tar Res, you know
what we came for Ada, we both work out with
Drew and then just having the same draft class, those similarities,
and we became pretty.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Cool from that. I have one question when.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
We could, like you put us in the chat.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
We're gonna see who the real tyree says today.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
And you know what's funny, both of us are such
like nicer guys, like especial to each other.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
We don't even we didn't even. I didn't respond, Like
I'm not I don't care what happens.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
I'm not gonna what I'm saying. I'm not gonna force
him with tire Like I like that we cool, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
So like, as a.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Competitor, how does it feel like you won one? We
won one, but you had to go home like, oh.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
We really lost.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
But the great game once you have seventeen to cents twenty,
like you played a great game, but you lost.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Like, so, how does that competitive nature? Like how you
rich that in your mind? Like knowing that we cool
it makes you get up even more, doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (19:51):
For sure.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
I think Katie and Brown talked about the other on
Twitter fan They were like, you know, like they don't
understand that friends compete harder, you know what I mean,
And that that's kind of where I I've been put
in a group text with every player.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
Drew works, I've been put in a group text with you, Zach, Jason, Joel, everybody.
I'm in Tyler, We're all.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
I'm in a separate group text with Drew and them
and all of them, and it's always like who gonna
play better tonight?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You know?
Speaker 5 (20:17):
And I think that that's who Drew is. Drew talk.
That's what he does, uh big time.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
That's all he do. Wake up in the morning and
just go That's.
Speaker 5 (20:24):
All he does. That's how he can. He can't communicate
any other way.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
But for me, I'm just like I understand it's a
competitive nature of it, but also, like like you said,
I'm cool with everybody, like especially everybody Drew works out with,
Like we all together in the gym every day. We're
all in the East too. It feels like it's like,
you know, so we're all competing againstch other all the time.
But I think that's that's what makes it the fun
of it all, you know. And I think being like
after that first game, I was like, damn, it wasn't
(20:48):
even like it wasn't even extra because it was like
you and Joel was just like damn, Like I wanted
that game, you know what I mean? But uh No,
I think that definitely has a as a partner that
we cool. So it makes it you want to win
that game even more because then we know we're going
to talk later, you know, just messing around.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
You know.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
You know what's funny about that, My mom My mom goes,
what are y'all talking about? Every time the camera is on,
y'all y'all both smiling, laughing and talking.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
What could y'all like?
Speaker 2 (21:13):
How are y'all going out there trying to trying to
cook each other? But y'all both laughing? The whole time,
Like I'm like, ma, that's just that's who we are.
It's just like I like I messed, I messed with
I messed it had it like I just really want
to beat them, you know, sure, but otherwise this is
this is intriguing. This is a tree yourself the top
of my mom I had a conversation with Drew in
(21:36):
the summertime. You Drew, Sam who take pictures? I think
you may have worked that after me before me. I
can't remember, but.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Drew, you was telling Drew how y'all would be.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
We're saying top four or top five seed in the
east one of the I think you said top four.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Yeah, top four. That's where my head is at.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
So yeah, and it's early. We know that it's a
long season. We both you know, we both know that.
But as it looks as you sai right now, y'all,
I think top three to four. Maybe I don't know
the exact standards, but what are your expectations for this
spacious team? Like, because you are the head of the snake,
so it's like you, you know, they go as you go.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
What do you like? What do you expect out of
this spercial team? What do you see in the future.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Yeah, I mean it's early in the year, of course,
so they don't want to like overreact or like if
we're losing right now, I wouldn't overreact either, I think.
I think the biggest thing is just trying to take
it one game at a time and not get too
geeked about anything.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
And like, now you see we getting all this.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Love on social media, I'm getting all this It's like
that can be like a poison to a sense, you
know what I mean, you kind of like move out
the way with that, like you just kind of keep forward,
because last year was like we snuck up on everybody. Nobody,
nobody knew how we played, you know, so especially early
in the year, it was like, oh, we're playing the Pacers,
that's an easy win.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
But then it was like, oh, they playing fast as
they move in, like getting up and down.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
So now they kind of have a better idea of
what to expect in the scouting report and stuff like that.
But we're just trying to approach games the right way,
play the right way, and obviously, yeah, I want to
get to the playoffs, and like, of course me, I'm
trying to be greedy, like I'm not gonna I'm not like,
I want to be the playoffs eight seed.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
I don't want to play playing. No, I want to
be top four seed. You know what I mean. I'm
trying to Yeah, I'm trying to not be in the
playing you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
So you're trying to play real playoff minutes.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
So that's the biggest thing. Famous Nobody. Nobody believes me
when I say that. I'm like, Yo, we're gonna be
a top four seed that like Drew don't believe me.
Nobody believes me, you.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
Yeah, Yeah, as long as the people in the locker
room do ainything can happen. Bro, It's the NBA, like
any anything can happen any night.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Yeah. We just watched it with the Heat.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean, just I don't I'm not going to sit
here and say I thought that Heat was going to
the There's no nothing in me had like Miami going
to the finals last year, like the way they play,
like I just like I didn't see it to the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
K they had a good match up with Goes Down.
They beat there.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Now they confidence is sky high, you know what I mean? So,
like you said anything can happen in the league, and
especially on any given.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
Night, you know what I mean, Yeah, for sure. For
it's like you're not sneaking up on people no more.
They know what to expect.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Dudes are moving up in scount of reports, like Ben
Mathment from being like six man don't really have a
film Now everybody knows what they're doing against them. Everybody's
in different roles. But that's the fun about earlier in
the year. You try to get as many as you
can early, you know what I mean, And just keep
it rolling, keep the momentum going.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Right, right, last last basketball thing, and then we'll take
a break and we'll get into some quick personal stuff.
We'll talk about All Star and all that stuff, and
your name. I want to talk about draft light real
fast because I feel like you would hired me. Of course,
look way hired than me, honestly, But like I know
you've had the same feeling that I had. Right if
(24:36):
you go back to it, do you have any like
is there any like team certain games?
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Certain like what is like what's your thought process?
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Are you glad? Like you know what I'm saying, Like
I'm happy, Like I was frustrated at the night you know,
the night of going twenty one, I'll say that I'm
frustrated as hell, But now I'm like, man, I'm so
happy I got to Philly, Like the opportunity was there
all this.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
You just never know.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
The organization has been good to me, The fans have
been great to me. I want to pick your brain
and see where your head's at about draft night.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
Yeah, I think, uh, well, obviously I got dried hired
you and I'm obviously frustrated by so I can't imagine
how you feel it because I think we both share
the sentiment, like.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
I just want to know why, Like I want to
know what were they thinking that? What did they not see?
What did the tape not tell them? You feel me like?
That's what always confuses me.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
But I understand, Like I mean, I get a scouting
is hard understanding who's gonna work hard and who has
you know, you can't really scout like intelligence and and
and how hard dudes work and all that stuff. I
get that, don't get me wrong whatever, But that day,
going into that day at the crib, I knew I
had just met with Sack the night before, and I
was like man, I'm probably going I was like, I
(25:46):
always keep my expectations low, so I knew Sack promised
me at twelve, so I'm like, I'm probably going to
Sack at twelve. But in my head, I'm like, man,
Detroit is gonna pick me at seven. They got to
pick me at seven. There's no way they're not picking me.
And when they didn't, I was like, wow, you know
what I mean. I was like, that's I was thinking.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
In my mind. I was like, man, that's crazy.
Speaker 4 (26:03):
So I think out of anybody, Detroit and DC Washington,
they told me they were going to pick me at nine.
They called me at like pick five or six, like
we're picking you at nine, and then they called.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Me a pick like eight and we're like never mind.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
So there's like there's like some extra juice I think
between those those two teams. But everything happened for a reason, bro,
And of course it's it's easy for me to tell
you now, like yeah, I'm still mad about it because
I mean Sack traded me, you know whatever, But no,
I think everything happens for a reason, bro.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
And it was like, you know, I didn't want to
play with I didn't want.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
To get drafted to you know, Atlanta or Cleveland because
they had DG and Trey, And I was like, I
want to play the point and I end up getting
drafted to Sack where they have a point too, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
So I tried to maneuver my way, but it didn't.
It didn't do nothing different. Like everything happens for a reason,
and that's why I'm here now.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
You know, it all worked out, and it's the show
all worked out, you know what I mean, Like the
trade and the way you came out last even last year.
Like as soon as the trade happened, as soon as
the trade happened in like your first two or three games,
I was looking like, yeah, this was this is the
right move.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Like I like, did you think you were gonna get
drafted by Philly? Where do you think you were gonna go? Listen?
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Okay, I don't think I've ever talked about this. I
didn't talk to Philly whole draft process. I think that
may have been one of the only like three teams I.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Didn't talk to.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
I talked to everybody else because my range was so wide, right,
I had like I had you know, Rich was telling
me is like, look you can go from anywhere between
eight and twenty four.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I think he told me eight and twenty four.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Like, so because you can go like and that's such
a wide range, we're gonna meet with all these different teams.
So I met with every I'm talking about everybody all
the way up to that. But we didn't meet with Philly.
Philly did.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
I did not meet with Philly. Like I think Philly like.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
They had some other stuff going, like they had to
get out at the higher doc at the higher Darryl,
you know what I'm saying, So they would probably worry
about that. And on draft night, well, Rich, I'm talking
to Rich like, he's okay. Orlando at fifteen. At first
it was the Spurs. It's like, all right, I think
the Spurs wanna get you at whatever it was eleven.
So then he calls me because the RP was he
was in LA's on the phone working, so then he
(28:11):
called him like, no, no Spurs, so okay. So then
after he says no Spurs, he says Orlando. He said
Orlando or Dallas, Orlando or Dallas. I'm all right cool.
Orlando had fifteen, Dallas had I want to say, eighteen
eighteen or nineteen. So we get to Orlando. He calls
me back boom, they say no. I'm like, all right,
(28:33):
now I'm getting now like I'm getting I haven't met
with these teams coming up, you know what I mean,
like the writers, like the Rockets, the Thunder, it was
another team that I hadn't met with, and then it
was I think it was Brooklyn and then it was Philly.
So now I'm looking like, oh no, like I don't know,
I haven't met with these teams. I'm about to fall
out the first round somehow, and I'm now I'm frustrated.
(28:53):
He calls me back after Dallas and Dallas took Josh screen,
so I'm like, dang, the home hometown team I didn't
get like.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
No love there.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
And then have O Miami. He calls that Miami. Miami
has twenty, so it's like picking nineteen. Now it calls
like the you know, the room is split between you know,
getting the guard or going big, but they had just
drafted Tyler Hero, So I'm like all right, and then
he calls back saying no. So I'm like at this point,
like I got my phone down, I dan got tears
(29:22):
in my eyes because I'm scared.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
You know what I'm saying. I went from the whole
year playing the whole year at Kentucky.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Everybody said, oh, he's gonna be a lottery pick, gonna
be like, you know what I'm saying, all that until
now I'm out of the top. I'm out the top
twenty right, So now I'm frustrated. And then they don't
even like my uncle he knows and he rich Pad
calls my uncle, he tells him, all right, he's going
to fill that twenty one. So when I get drafted,
I don't even know how to, like, it's my first
time beating everybody if you didn't have to zoom with them.
(29:50):
So it was it was really cool though, man, Like
it's just surreal, Like it just shows you how crazy
the draft process really is. Because I said, I didn't have,
you know, one conversation with Philly. Philly was never on
my mind, and it was just like, honestly, like, I'm
just so blessed that I was able to actually come here, honestly,
because it just it just worked out for me. It
(30:10):
really worked out for me. It's a great situation for
me now, even though it's so many different variables that
I can go into all day, but we're not here
to talk about that. We're not here to talk about that.
But anyway, we're gonna take a quick break really fast
and we come back.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
We'll get into some quick personal stuff with ty Reson.
Let him go, let him go.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
We're gonna we're trying to push the Tyre's Toms Tarre's backcourt.
We all started there, you go, let's go, all right,
welcome back. We're still with Pacers point Guard, the other Tyrese,
(30:51):
the main Tyres Tyres, Tyler Burdon, Tyri's first person. I
got really like, really quick, how did your environment that
picked Tyres?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Had that name come? Where's that come from? Where's that
original from?
Speaker 4 (31:04):
I don't know how you got it, but me, Tyree's Gibbson,
the singer and the actor at the time, he was
on MTV like he was hosting or something like that.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
Uh, and my mom seen the name watching TV. It
was like, I like that name. It just gave me.
Tyree's from there.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
And my mom collected beanie babies when she was a kid,
and so she wanted tie in the name. So Tyree's
hit all hit right there.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Wow, Wow, I didn't Okay, Wow, that's different. See, my
mom's name is is Denise and my dad's name is Tyrone.
So it took the first three letters of my dad's name,
t y R, and then the esc for my mom's name,
and they just combined it and got Tyre's.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
So it's like that's kind of fire.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yeah, it's kind of cool. So I did when I
was growing up, people like, man, you just wanted to
be like, you know Tyre's gifts. I'm like, I mean,
that's not what they told me, you know, but.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Na, that's you know, that's a unique name.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
That's a stat or somebody tagged me in the NBA
post something that we are the only two NBA players
named Tyrese. That's one. We were drafted same class, And
it was like they was talking about like you know,
percentages and all that. I can't I'm not going to
all of that, but like, is this your first time
meeting somebody with the same name. I think I don't
(32:20):
think I know anybody else other than the Gibson Like
the same name.
Speaker 4 (32:24):
Nah, I think you're the first one. I think you're
the first one. I always think it's.
Speaker 5 (32:27):
Cool like that we have we have the same name.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
I tried to get I try to find like a
like a rookie card from both of us, because I
think that's cool that like we both are the first
two and in the same class, and hopefully another one.
Speaker 5 (32:40):
I think there's another one at Duke right now.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Terre's like Procter or something. Hopefully he's like the third one.
But yeah, no, I always I didn't even know you
when we first got in the league, but I was like,
I want to see I want to see him succeed.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
We got the same name. I want to see him succeed.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Right, No, that's crazy, Like that's all. It's funny. I'm
watching the game.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
I'll be watching games on TV and I'm yeah the
TV like like we best friend.
Speaker 5 (33:01):
I'm like, I want you to I want you to
cook people Like I'm.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Like, man, you know what I'm saying. I was so
I text you like I was so happy for you
to make the All Star Game, like you like you
know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (33:09):
You for you?
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Of course, then you putting on like just for like
us who got you know, fail in the draft because
you I know you feel like you fail in the
draft and it was overlooked or whatever. Man, and I
just you know it's I appreciate that for sure. But anyways,
let's talk about let's about some high school stuff, because
I don't I don't recall playing you in high school.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Never were you a what au like? What is it like?
Did you play on the circuit?
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Nah? I didn't play on the circuit because I played
for like a local team at the crib.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
So like local team I could have played with, Like
I had a chance to play, I could have played Nike,
Adidas are under Armer my seventeen year.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
I could have left and played any of them. But
I already had all the mid major offers that I thought.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I was gonna end up going anyway. So I was like,
I'm just gonna stick with my homeboys and do that.
And now I've took an over the program. Now they're
w E Y c L with Nike next year. But like,
you know, I just played with my friends back home,
and so like, yeah, nah, you've definitely never seen me.
Nobody ever saw me in high school.

little bit in of Oio State. But then I saw
you on the USA team.
Speaker 5 (34:12):

don't I don't think anybody from your class. Like it
was like Scottie Barnes CA.
Speaker 5 (35:11):
It was all the dudes younger than you. Everybody from
your class was getting ready for college.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
So everybody thought like you. So we didn't have nobody
incoming freshmen, none of them.
Speaker 5 (35:19):
Ye won't go with that year, right, yeah yeah, we
won't go down there.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Yeah yeah yeah yeah wow wow man. So you grew
up Westcons Yeah yeah.
Speaker 5 (35:28):
I grew up in Wisconsin, so growing up Packers fan,
Packers fan. Kind of. I like Brett Farv growing up.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
So when he left and they hate on Brett Farv,
then I was like, I'm done with the Packers, but
I'm back.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
I'm back now.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Oh you're back already. I was about to say it.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
It's room.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
You know. It's because you're from America. You can always
be a Cowboys fan.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
You're a Cowboys fan in Philly. How does that work?
Speaker 3 (35:51):
You know?
Speaker 1 (35:52):
They kind of they understand because I'm from I'm from Dallas.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
Right, but you don't. I don't ever see where like
Cowboys get to the game or nothing.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
No, no, no, I love I love the Eagles. The Eagles,
I just can't love them as much when they're playing
the Cowboys. Right, Like, I'm not a Cowboys fan. I
didn't grow I didn't get to see the Super Bowl.
So like, I'm not gonna sit here and say I
expect them to kill every year, like they're really good
this year.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
So like I don't.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
I don't hate the Eagles, you know what I'm saying.
I don't despise the Eagle. I just I mean, you know,
I'm a fan of Cowboys. I'm from Dallas.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Right.
Speaker 5 (36:23):
No, No, that makes sense, that's fair, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Growing up you were so you say Packers fan? Does
that make you you was a Bucks fan?
Speaker 5 (36:29):
They were trash when I was little though.
Speaker 4 (36:32):
It was like Michael Red that was like, and Brandon Jennings.
When brand James came, he was cracking. Me and Tyler
used to go to the games together just to go.
Like we used to go like the Thunder game every year,
and we a Thunder game and the Heat game and
the Cavs game.
Speaker 5 (36:45):
Whenever bron or KD played, we'd.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Go, y'all, y'all played you entirely. Y'all played high school
against each other.
Speaker 4 (36:51):
No, we never played a game, I mean au but
never played never played high school game against yea he
we were supposed to my our senior year, but he
had got hurt like.
Speaker 5 (36:59):
The week before, so we ended up not playing each other.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Really he was he was praising high school.
Speaker 5 (37:04):
I know, I know, Ball's life. All yeah, he was
that like mixtape. Remember he's playing it. All the little
dudes that mixtape were crazy when we were in high school.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
Okay, dang damn all right, dam okay, Well I got
a coble more for you, cold core because this is
just coming out the top of my head.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
One USA this year, How was that experience for it?
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Was it different than USA when we were younger at all?
Speaker 4 (37:27):
Like yeah, for sure, bro, for sure, because when you're younger,
it's like, honestly, everybody's like scared of you, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 5 (37:34):
Like we walked into we walked in the arena. My
USA nineteen.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
We have one game within twenty five except for the championship.
We went every game by more than twenty five. So
like every we won the game before we even walked
in the door, like they were just scared of us,
you know. And then the championshipame, we play against like
Mally and they played hard and ended up only went
about like fifteen. But like this was way different because
that scare factor's gone. Everybody's profession knows, we.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
All play against each other all the time, you know,
so that was a that was a different part of it.
But no, it was a good experience. It was fun.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
Obviously we didn't win, so like that made it. That
made it like everybody's out. It was trash because you
didn't win. But I had a good experience, bro, And
I think I think I'm a part of that. I
think we're both a part of that like group that's
gonna help transition because like this year it's going to
be all that got Like Bron's gonna play, all them
dudes are gonna play the kind of like probably their
last one, but you know next is like the next
(38:28):
number is like l A. You know, like it's like
we're part of that young group that's part of that
transition to to our age.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
You know, it's gonna be a big one. And that's
gonna be a big one. That's when they get serious. Yeah,
that's get serious. And then last thing I got for you,
we have to talk about this all right. Yeah, I
mean I know you probably get asked a question online
and everybody once you talk about we got to talk
about the jump shot man, what how what what? Okay,
that thing goes? I really do think the ball is
(38:56):
going in every time. But when you look at it,
I know you people like why.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
Right right right?
Speaker 1 (39:03):
What did that come? Like?
Speaker 2 (39:05):
What is that?
Speaker 5 (39:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (39:06):
When I was little, bro, I just I had to
figure out a way to shoot, so, like you know,
I just used to if you look at like videotaping
me from like when I was little, I used to
have to like bring it to my knees and then
get to the set and then push it.
Speaker 5 (39:17):
And then when I got as I got older, I
started I met my AU coach with my trainer.
Speaker 4 (39:21):
We used to make and drill all the time, every day,
all day over the shoulders, like don't drop it. And
then that that got me like used to keeping the
ball above my shoulders so I could just catch it
and just shoot it and not have to dip it.
But he was like, you make it it a high clip.
As long as you keep it above your shoulders, then
I'm not worried about it.
Speaker 5 (39:39):
So I just kept it there.
Speaker 4 (39:40):
And then and then I got to I got to college,
and I thought I might have to change it in college,
but then I was like shooting forty percent in college
and and they were like they left me alone about it.
And I came to NBA and it was the same thing.
So I was like, I ain't gonna change it, and
as goes in and then now it's just it's stuck.
Speaker 2 (39:56):
Now, you know what.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
I hope you don't well play us you can change.
I hope you won't change forty something like when.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
I first came to league, everybody used to go under
and everybody used to help off me because they thought
they looked weird. And I was like that That's what
gave me confidence early in my career because I was like,
nobody's guarding me like bat like and they was just
making them And then it was like, oh, okay, he
can actually shoot.
Speaker 5 (40:18):
It just looks funny. So I'm the king of Like,
I don't care your jumper looks I just want to
see it go in. Like I'm the biggest proponent of it.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah, why does it matter? I've been I mean, I
said all the time too, like why does it matter
what it looks like? You ripped something? You know what
I'm saying thousands thousands, thousands of times and you making it?
You can shoot with clothes that make you feel better.
Speaker 5 (40:38):
Than me exactly exactly go in.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
That's all that mattered. That's all I matter. But no, man,
I appreciate you, man, I appreciate you coming on.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
I know this is I know a lot of people
gonna be liked it. They was asking for the tyre,
Tylerberd and tyres and tires. So it's like, I do
appreciate me. I just want to say, respect man, respect
to your game, respect to the stuff that you do.
Respect to you, say your to your age, you team

Speaker 2 (41:27):
That man, much love, But all right, I appreciate Tar
rechopping on that was that was really amazing. You have
some great stories, great personal the great dude, wish your money,
but the best of lucky exempts being sixers.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Anyways, looking forward, you got to in season tournament game,
must win. It's a tournament game against the.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
Hawks this Friday.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
Then we follow that up with a game against Brooklyn
on Sunday, and then our last pool play in season
tournament game against the Calves on Tuesday. So we've got
a good stretch coming up here, and it's our first
game against these Eastern Conference foes. So we're gonna look
go out there and look to send a message and
that should be great. But now I want to tell
(42:11):
you what I'm thankful for. I want to say that
I'm thankful for I haven't talked about it, but my
Turkey drive, my Turkey drive and my foundation.
Speaker 5 (42:19):
That was great.
Speaker 1 (42:20):
That was amazing, you know.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
To see that we were able to give out a
thousand dinners. The dinners fed up to six to eight people,
so roughly roughly, or you know, five to eight roughly.
Speaker 1 (42:32):
We'll just say we were able.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
To bless five to like seven thousand people with food
for this upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, and that just makes me,
you know, that makes me extremely happy. And side, I'm
very thankful that I have the platform and I have
the ability to think for my foundation as well, but
we have the ability to bless families and make people
(42:56):
like see people smile and make people happy in the
holiday season, which is probably one of the toughest times
of the year.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
So I'm saying I'm thankful for that.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
And then I'll say when I want to get one
percent better at and this week coming up, and just
finding ways to keep improving my game that can help
us win. Like I said, you know, it's been it's
been different. You know this year, the teams are trying
to guard me differently. I'm still staying aggressive, Nick Nurses,
It's going to make sure I stay aggressive. My team
is going to make sure I stay aggressive. But finding
(43:24):
different ways and looking forward to honestly really looking forward
to it because it challenges me.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
I watch a lot more film. I always watch film.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Now watch a lot more film just on how teams
guarded different league guards in the past. And it's been great.
It's been really fun and I'm really looking forward to
the challenge. I'm really looking forward to stepping up and
being the best possible player for this this organization that
my teammates.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
So yeah, those are my two things. You know.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
One day I'm gonna do a poll on Instagram and
here's some of your you guys, what y'all thankful.
Speaker 1 (43:56):
For and which I want to get one percent better at. Anyways,
thank you listening to Max on the Mic. Please rate, review,

Speaker 2 (44:06):
So leave you some link and see y'all get some
requests for guests on here. But anyways, all right, appreciate y'all, Max,
You on the Mic Out
Man, this had nothing to do with me.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's all calouber Man. You know, were praying for him. Man,
I love my dog man.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
I just met him.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
By love him. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
I hope he gets watched up see him cleaning up
from outside.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Tonight rattles in another triple.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Take it over here tonight, the first in the career.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
I'm yo, what's up, y'all? Is Tyree Speck with MAXI
on the mic. Today we have a special guest. I
have a good guess for y'all. We have the second
best tyres in the NBA.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
I have to say.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Second.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
That's just how it goes. Preparing the nation works. But first,
we're gonna catch up a little bit catch up about
you know, from the season. It's been a while since
we talked so in the past couple of weeks, so
we're gonna catch up a little bit on that and.
Speaker 5 (00:49):
Uh yeah, here we go. All right.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
First up, we gotta talk about it. You know, I
tried my best not to talk about it that I
don't like talking about myself, but I had to talk
about that. Fifty is crazy, Okay, I'm talking. I was
a little a little shocked and not shocked that I
actually could score fifty. This shock that I actually went
out there and did it. Like you know what I mean.
Confidence is how I believe in myself, So like scoring
(01:16):
fifty wasn't like an ability thing. It was just like
a wow, I actually went out there and did it.
I actually went for it.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
To MV.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Well, no, the first.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
A career.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
I'm telling I think I had to shout out to
Joel and Tobias and those guys because now I think
they wanted me to score fifty more than I wanted
to score fifty. But uh, now I appreciate them. I mean,
it's my confidence and the team's confidence in me is
on another level, and I appreciate them for that. It's
it's been great. And ever since I scored fifty, you know,
(02:03):
not even since I scored fifty, just since the start
of the year, I've been having to learn like new
ways that the defenses are guarding me. They trying to
do a lot of different things like force me left trapped.
Then now I play physical, make it extremely tough for
me to catch the ball, and I had to adapt
to it. You know, I've been to have to be
more physical, lift a little bit more weights, we'll be
(02:24):
able to be strong with the ball, try to finish
through contact, shoot pull ups and step back and stuff
like that more.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
But that's all.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
That's great, And yeah, the fifty pieces. Crazy Chick fil
A had a fifty piece fifty piece nugget.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
You know that was cool.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
The balloons, Ma, Ma.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
You know, I tell you this last thing I say
about this a video my mom seen me a video.
They were all watching the game together, my sister, my nieces.
It was their birthday, both my sisters, actually my grandmother's
and then my dad. So everybody's screaming, ah, Terry's great
gay fifty and my dad he's just sitting there with
(03:01):
his arms forty and straight faced like like, I'm like,
what could I have done better? I literally had fifty
in the NBA. Like, but like, that's just how my
dad is.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I appreciate it for that because that just makes me
so much better and has so much more confidence in
myself because my dad he expects these things out of me,
and that just shows where I am as a player.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
But anyways, a lot of people have also been asking
me that a topic of the fifty piece, A lot
of people have been asking me about Joelle calling me
the franchise.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
To be honest, you probably.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Just taken this late a year ago, two years ago,
because I've been telling them to walk out the food
for a long time. But I'm happy that he did it.
But you know, that's just not it's not about me.
That's not about the trailer. You know, that's someone that
wants to but he just wants to get better and
wants to learn. He's willing to learn and listens. Extremely
(03:56):
humble artist. I've always said the hardiest walking, you know, pressing.
I've ever been Ali and I saying something and you
know he doesn't, you know, take place off. He always
find some money got out of Obviously he's doing great,
but I think he has a he has an even
(04:17):
blinder future. I think you know, you can't get to
the level of uh you know, so you know, no
dolphins got a good one.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
It's all be here for a long time man.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Like I said, And a lot who won't know where
that came from? How that come about?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So funny story is so one day I was messing
Joel when I was my second year. He posted a
picture of us and I'm like, bro, like you could
have you got seven million followers? Like tag me in
the phunno, like help your brother, help a boy out,
Like I'm trying to get my name out there too.
So after I pressed him, kind like not really pressing,
(04:55):
but like mess with him about it. I'm joking, like
I don't really care, but I'm joking. He is after
a game played Boston. Is after the Boston game, and
he asked the media, like the media team to find
him a picture of like right there on the spot
of the game of the game with us out there
on the court together doing anything in the same picture,
(05:18):
and he tags me and puts the franchise.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
We all know Joel is the troll. You know, he
just who he is, troll. It's just who he is.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
And it's like at the time he was trolling, you
know what I mean, just messing with me, like because
I was at that time that's when you know, we
had the you know, being wasn't playing, so I was
holding like, you know, stepping in for him. So he
was messing around, saying I was saving the franchise, and
he kept calling me the frenchise. Now, when I'm walking
around and feeling and I see people, they yelling out
(05:46):
the franchise. It's like, oh my god. I try to
like I'm a very like misserved person. I'm half of you,
but like when it comes to like myself, I just
want to be nice and called. I don't like. I
don't like all that attention off the court.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
But that's where that came from.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Do I like it?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I'm used to I just know Joe was gonna call
me that, and he's going to gas in the media
as well, So it's like, I'm used to it. I
don't bother me. They just called me ty Reese. I
would like that too, though, franchise, that's a lot. It's
a hard name.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
That's a hard name.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Look at this as the basketball stuff. We're on a
game win streak.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
We're on the a game win streak that was after
the Milwaukee game, eight game win streak, and we had
a lot of fun while doing it. One of the
hottest teams in the nba U during that stretch and
the first throughout the first ten games of the season,
the first eleven games of the season, and you know,
we had some hiccups. You know, Kelly goes down, you
know Nick was out a little bit too. So whenever
(06:48):
you have any hiccups in your lineup, especially you know,
and key parts of the lineup, it makes it difficult
to win games. You don't you never never never there
with the NBA. You notice the stuff's gonna happen. People
gonna get you know, they're gonna have to sit out
because of the injuries and because they're hurt. Because the
eighty two game season, it's the grueling season, and we
love it, you know, that's why we do it.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
But losing those two guys, it's hard for us.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
And then playing Indiana in a little series game where
they play at the fastest paced. So we played them
the first night, you know, getting up and down. We
were able to win that game. But Tyre Tyler Burn,
who we're going to have on him in the minute.
He comes back the next game he had I think
twenty five and seventeen the first game, comes back and
has like thirty three and sixteen Albert himself. So it's like,
(07:38):
man like, you know, we play, he plays well the
first game, we beat him, he plays even better the
second game. So that's just a testimony to how good
our league is, especially at the point guard position. The
guard position. A guy like Tyree's is special. He's special,
and he's a he's a difficult cover. And I you know,
we take we take the challenges on and be taken
on heavy.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
But then we played Boston off a back to back out.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
They're playing against tar Res in the place of the
fastest face the lead, and that's just tough. That's tough,
and that's you know, that's what just would come with it.
And uh, you know, you can't make excuses. I think
both of those games we had an opportunity to win
the game. Probably should have won both of those games.
The crazy thing games We've lost three games this year,
every single game I feel like we should have won.
That's a good thing. Like there was no games where
(08:23):
we have just been out talented, you know what I mean,
like the talent in fact that it was too far
apart or we just didn't have it that night. We
always found our way to fight to the end of
the games. And I think we're in a good place,
a great place right now. I think coach Nurse is
doing really well with just managing the team, managing guys, guys,
(08:43):
knowing the road, guys, know what we're trying to look for.
He has guys really competing right now. I feel like,
you know, the competition level is high. We want to
win every single game, and his whole model of expect
to win has really we really embraced it, and I
think that's been really good for us.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
I think that's going to be good for us when
it comes down the stretch. So that's been great.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Offensively, a lot of people have been talking about the
two man game and the duo that me and Joel
bring before I even get onto that.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
We can't have that two man game.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Without guys like Tobias, guys like Melt, guys like Kelly,
guys like Patun who are able to space for whoever
to do.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Great on their own.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
And because that we have those special talents on the
court with us that we're able to they're able to
cause so much attention that allows me and Joelle to
play two man game. We'll be able to play two
man games. I think the connection has just it's grown.
It's grown because we watch a lot of film together.
Drew sends us film. Joelle just wants to be He
(09:44):
wants to be great. He wants me to be great.
He wants us to be great as a team, and
for us, we be gra as a team. We have
to be great together. And I think he's really bought
into the whole system of Nick Nurse wanting everybody touched
the ball to play more free, less ice, a faster pay,
it's more dribble hand dolls. And Joel has gotten himself
in shape and he's been able to do it and
it's been really good for us so far.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
I think.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
We talked about how Halerberry and beat us talk a
little about how the Celtics beat.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
US h Derek White hits hits big shots.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Derek White's a good basketball player, and then Jason Tatum,
he's a Jayson Tatum. I think, you know what's crazy
and I probably this probably shouldn't be said, but I
as a Sixers player, really it's like I feel the
rivalry with the Celtics. I can feel it like I
(10:36):
don't like the Celtics, you know what I mean? Like
I love competing against the Celtics. I love like playing
against them. That like the seven game series was amazing.
It's like every time you play against them, like the
the tension gets like more and more every single game.
It's like if you play for the Sixers, you play
for the Celtics. You have to feel it and you
feel it in the building. Like our fans hate the Celtics,
(11:00):
the Celtics fans hate us. So it's like it's really
good though. It's good for sports, it's good for basketball,
it's good for competition. JT hit some big shots on
us and Derek Whye did as well.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
So that series is for the for the season so
far as one one.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
So I will definitely see them two more times and
you know, we'll try to get the best of them.
But now that we've caught up a little bit over
the past couple of weeks of the NBA, now we're
going to get into the other tyres now, mister Tyree
tolebrit And it'd be fun. It should be fun, it
should be a great conversation. Great listen, Uh, stay tuned
(11:36):
and stay here for walking all right, Like our promise,
we have an interesting guest for today's podcast on Maxim.
(11:57):
On the right, we have my guy, Tyreee Haliburton the
other times the second best tyres.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
But man welcome Tyri's ronovlud Foss twenty twenty three NBA
All Star Tyre's Tylerbury.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
Appreciate you, FAM, thanks for having me, Thanks for having me.
Twenty twenty four All Star. I'm on this podcast. I'm
excited about it.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Let's go, There we go, There we go.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Hey, First things first, all right, this is post doubleheader
Indiana Philly Game one. I think first of all, I
listen to exactly Tyre's Halliburton is. I'm sorry, but he's
probably the best pastor that we have in our league today.
I don't think it's close. I'm just gonna start with this.
(12:44):
There was a play in the first game. Ty Ree
drove all the way down in the paint. He didn't
like what he saw in the paint, jumped up, did
it three sixty, kicked it out to I think Obi
topic and he made it three. I said, what is
going on? I have like there's no possible that he
seen him, Like, where do you where is this passing creativity?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Like where does this come from? I really have to
know this.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
When I was growing up, I just never scored, FAM,
So like I just I just like got used to
passing all the time, and that was like how I
just played basketball, And now, like you know, coming to
the NBA, my job was the same thing.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Just passed past past shoot corner.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
Threes when Fox passed it to me, and then when
I got traded, Uh, I was like forced to score.
And obviously we know we both work with Drew like
who he is the person he's always on me to
score more So that's kind of become a new a
new part of my game. But I've just always that's
just who I am. I'm a past first guy.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, And it's like last year, like you've you've changed
like so much, honestly, like your aggressiveness, like you've always,
like you said, you'll have been a great passer.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
But like last year beginning of the year, you know,
I was messed with you. Probably remember this. I was
messed with you.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
I had to guard you, and I was like, you're
gonna get he's gonna get all his assists in the
first half and get tennis in the first half, and
he's going to try to score the rest of the game.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
But now it's like I don't know, like.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
If you're gonna shoot, if you're gonna pack, I have
to like and it's like it's so frustrated as a defender,
I'm like I don't really like I really don't know
how to like to stop him. He's coming so fast.
He's going at you so fast. It's like you can't
really ice him, you can't wake him if you like,
what is that Like? Is that a coach call out?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
I think?
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Or is that like a tyree's thing? Like you know,
y'all get it out, you know how y'all want to play?
Like where did that come from?
Speaker 4 (14:31):
I think it's funny because I do remember exactly what
you're talking about, Like ten sais the first half, we
start half, at halftime, you're all are you about to shoot?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Now you're about to shoot?
Speaker 5 (14:39):
You were the first person to point that out to me,
and then George talk to me about it. He was like, yo,
stop manipulating the game. And I'm like, what are you
talking about?
Speaker 4 (14:46):
And he's like, you passed the whole first half, then
you shoot those second half And I never thought about
it that way, but I always thought that, but then
after the season, like reflecting on it, I would always
go halftime with like tennis sis whatever. Then I look
at my phone and Drew's texted me like you need
to shoot the ball, and I'm like, oh, yeah, you're right,
I do need to shoot. And it's kind of that
figuring out that balance between you know, shooting and scoring.
(15:07):
It's like every game trying to figure out the right
balance between it. But I know that sometimes if I
go to I've had games early this year too, it's
like I have four points a half, six points a half,
two points a half, And that's like that's affecting us
because if I'm not scoring, then everybody's playing me to
pass and and then it's just it's just affecting the
way we play. So if I'm like keeping defenses on
(15:27):
is doing both, it helps. But yeah, I think just
that that that balance has been talked. That's talking self talk,
drew a halftime.
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Talk, Carlisle talk. It's like all those things coming into one.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
That's that's where you mess me up at a lot
of it. Just like this is the most recent game
that we that y'all just beat us. Like the first
game we were playing, we were trying to take you
away as the scores, like like the beginning of the game,
you just passing, getting guys in balls. So we were
kind of able to like you know, slow you down
a little bit score wise. The second game, it's like
you just came out. It was like, no I'm going
(16:00):
to be the one to set the tone today. I'm
going to shoot you had like three four threes and
now that's when you you know, I think that's when
you have defense in the buying because like, all right,
he's being ultra aggressive and we know he can score
the ball as well.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Like for me, like i've been you know, it's funny.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I've been watching some of your film now because I'm
playing full time point guard, you know what I mean,
Like I haven't done that since high school, so it's
a lot different from you know, we both know from
high school, college and NBA. We have a lot of
different players. I've just been watching a lot of your
film just because the way you see the game. You know,
we have different playstyles as far as like our team
like Joelle. We know Joell not hard rolling like mom,
(16:40):
like you know what I'm saying, but just the way
that you read the game, the way that you find passes,
and it's like the way you get downhill be never
to spray out.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
Me.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Just watching a little bit of your film, I feel
like I've taken some of that, you know what I mean.
Like I've been able to pass the ball, I've been
able to not get the turnovers, And how would you
explain to somebody who doesn't know how to play, like
who has never played the NBB basketball game, you know
what I'm saying, Like, how would you explain them playing
the point guard role? Because I think right now you
are the prototype. You know what I'm saying, You are
(17:07):
with you know, if you're a past first point guard
that can score, you know what I mean, Like a
great example for it in our lead.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
Yeah, I think, uh No, I think what you're saying
makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Like I'm obviously more of the classic point guard in
terms of getting people involved.
Speaker 5 (17:24):
But like, I think the game is transitioning.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
We have so many pgs that can score at such
a high level, like yourself, Steph Luca, Like these are
guys who are can get thirty every night. I think
all three you guys are avaging like thirty right now,
you know. So it's just trying to figure out the
right the right balance between the two. But I think
my job on my team it's a little different because
my job is just to keep everybody, Like our job
is a point guard is keep everybody happy, you know
(17:47):
what I mean. Like, you got to understand like if
Joel's coming, send screens for your miles coming, set screens
for me, And I got to give him a bone here.
I got to hit him on the roll. He's got
to see I gotta throw it to him. Or like
for you, it's Betom. For me, it's like Bruce Brown, Like,
all right, they guarding the best player and they working
their butt off defensively.
Speaker 5 (18:04):
I got to hit them when they open.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Get them open the shop.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Yeah, Like feeling engaged. Feeling engaged.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
I was always told as a kid, like being a
point guard, just like being the mom of the team,
Like your mom job is to keep all their kids happy.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Like that's our job with our teammates, you know. So
I think that that's the biggest thing.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Is just understanding people's body language, understanding what people are thinking.
That's the biggest thing, because you just want to make
sure everybody happy, because that's how you keep people in
the right spots, doing the right things right.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
And it's just like just I've never heard of that analogy,
like the momb of the team, and it's now I
think about it. You do have to kind of keep
everybody's motions and check and then you're the coach on
the floor. So sometimes you got to talk to the
coach and tell them what you see. And it's like
me just picking your brain right now. It's like I
can already see where your mind comes from. I can
already see like how you see the game. And it's
(18:49):
like it's a beautiful thing, man, Honestly, I can just
appreciate it. Man, it's And you know, the next thing
I want to say is like we became friends just
because out of both our names tar Res, you know
what we came for Ada, we both work out with
Drew and then just having the same draft class, those similarities,
and we became pretty.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Cool from that. I have one question when.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
We could, like you put us in the chat.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
We're gonna see who the real tyree says today.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
And you know what's funny, both of us are such
like nicer guys, like especial to each other.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
We don't even we didn't even. I didn't respond, Like
I'm not I don't care what happens.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
I'm not gonna what I'm saying. I'm not gonna force
him with tire Like I like that we cool, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
So like, as a.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Competitor, how does it feel like you won one? We
won one, but you had to go home like, oh.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
We really lost.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
But the great game once you have seventeen to cents twenty,
like you played a great game, but you lost.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Like, so, how does that competitive nature? Like how you
rich that in your mind? Like knowing that we cool
it makes you get up even more, doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (19:51):
For sure.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
I think Katie and Brown talked about the other on
Twitter fan They were like, you know, like they don't
understand that friends compete harder, you know what I mean,
And that that's kind of where I I've been put
in a group text with every player.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
Drew works, I've been put in a group text with you, Zach, Jason, Joel, everybody.
I'm in Tyler, We're all.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
I'm in a separate group text with Drew and them
and all of them, and it's always like who gonna
play better tonight?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You know?
Speaker 5 (20:17):
And I think that that's who Drew is. Drew talk.
That's what he does, uh big time.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
That's all he do. Wake up in the morning and
just go That's.
Speaker 5 (20:24):
All he does. That's how he can. He can't communicate
any other way.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
But for me, I'm just like I understand it's a
competitive nature of it, but also, like like you said,
I'm cool with everybody, like especially everybody Drew works out with,
Like we all together in the gym every day. We're
all in the East too. It feels like it's like,
you know, so we're all competing againstch other all the time.
But I think that's that's what makes it the fun
of it all, you know. And I think being like
after that first game, I was like, damn, it wasn't
(20:48):
even like it wasn't even extra because it was like
you and Joel was just like damn, Like I wanted
that game, you know what I mean? But uh No,
I think that definitely has a as a partner that
we cool. So it makes it you want to win
that game even more because then we know we're going
to talk later, you know, just messing around.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
You know.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
You know what's funny about that, My mom My mom goes,
what are y'all talking about? Every time the camera is on,
y'all y'all both smiling, laughing and talking.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
What could y'all like?
Speaker 2 (21:13):
How are y'all going out there trying to trying to
cook each other? But y'all both laughing? The whole time,
Like I'm like, ma, that's just that's who we are.
It's just like I like I messed, I messed with
I messed it had it like I just really want
to beat them, you know, sure, but otherwise this is
this is intriguing. This is a tree yourself the top
of my mom I had a conversation with Drew in
(21:36):
the summertime. You Drew, Sam who take pictures? I think
you may have worked that after me before me. I
can't remember, but.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Drew, you was telling Drew how y'all would be.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
We're saying top four or top five seed in the
east one of the I think you said top four.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Yeah, top four. That's where my head is at.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
So yeah, and it's early. We know that it's a
long season. We both you know, we both know that.
But as it looks as you sai right now, y'all,
I think top three to four. Maybe I don't know
the exact standards, but what are your expectations for this
spacious team? Like, because you are the head of the snake,
so it's like you, you know, they go as you go.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
What do you like? What do you expect out of
this spercial team? What do you see in the future.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Yeah, I mean it's early in the year, of course,
so they don't want to like overreact or like if
we're losing right now, I wouldn't overreact either, I think.
I think the biggest thing is just trying to take
it one game at a time and not get too
geeked about anything.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
And like, now you see we getting all this.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Love on social media, I'm getting all this It's like
that can be like a poison to a sense, you
know what I mean, you kind of like move out
the way with that, like you just kind of keep forward,
because last year was like we snuck up on everybody. Nobody,
nobody knew how we played, you know, so especially early
in the year, it was like, oh, we're playing the Pacers,
that's an easy win.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
But then it was like, oh, they playing fast as
they move in, like getting up and down.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
So now they kind of have a better idea of
what to expect in the scouting report and stuff like that.
But we're just trying to approach games the right way,
play the right way, and obviously, yeah, I want to
get to the playoffs, and like, of course me, I'm
trying to be greedy, like I'm not gonna I'm not like,
I want to be the playoffs eight seed.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
I don't want to play playing. No, I want to
be top four seed. You know what I mean. I'm
trying to Yeah, I'm trying to not be in the
playing you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
So you're trying to play real playoff minutes.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
So that's the biggest thing. Famous Nobody. Nobody believes me
when I say that. I'm like, Yo, we're gonna be
a top four seed that like Drew don't believe me.
Nobody believes me, you.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
Yeah, Yeah, as long as the people in the locker
room do ainything can happen. Bro, It's the NBA, like
any anything can happen any night.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Yeah. We just watched it with the Heat.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean, just I don't I'm not going to sit
here and say I thought that Heat was going to
the There's no nothing in me had like Miami going
to the finals last year, like the way they play,
like I just like I didn't see it to the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
K they had a good match up with Goes Down.
They beat there.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Now they confidence is sky high, you know what I mean? So,
like you said anything can happen in the league, and
especially on any given.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
Night, you know what I mean, Yeah, for sure. For
it's like you're not sneaking up on people no more.
They know what to expect.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Dudes are moving up in scount of reports, like Ben
Mathment from being like six man don't really have a
film Now everybody knows what they're doing against them. Everybody's
in different roles. But that's the fun about earlier in
the year. You try to get as many as you
can early, you know what I mean, And just keep
it rolling, keep the momentum going.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Right, right, last last basketball thing, and then we'll take
a break and we'll get into some quick personal stuff.
We'll talk about All Star and all that stuff, and
your name. I want to talk about draft light real
fast because I feel like you would hired me. Of course,
look way hired than me, honestly, But like I know
you've had the same feeling that I had. Right if
(24:36):
you go back to it, do you have any like
is there any like team certain games?
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Certain like what is like what's your thought process?
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Are you glad? Like you know what I'm saying, Like
I'm happy, Like I was frustrated at the night you know,
the night of going twenty one, I'll say that I'm
frustrated as hell, But now I'm like, man, I'm so
happy I got to Philly, Like the opportunity was there
all this.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
You just never know.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
The organization has been good to me, The fans have
been great to me. I want to pick your brain
and see where your head's at about draft night.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
Yeah, I think, uh, well, obviously I got dried hired
you and I'm obviously frustrated by so I can't imagine
how you feel it because I think we both share
the sentiment, like.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
I just want to know why, Like I want to
know what were they thinking that? What did they not see?
What did the tape not tell them? You feel me like?
That's what always confuses me.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
But I understand, Like I mean, I get a scouting
is hard understanding who's gonna work hard and who has
you know, you can't really scout like intelligence and and
and how hard dudes work and all that stuff. I
get that, don't get me wrong whatever, But that day,
going into that day at the crib, I knew I
had just met with Sack the night before, and I
was like man, I'm probably going I was like, I
(25:46):
always keep my expectations low, so I knew Sack promised
me at twelve, so I'm like, I'm probably going to
Sack at twelve. But in my head, I'm like, man,
Detroit is gonna pick me at seven. They got to
pick me at seven. There's no way they're not picking me.
And when they didn't, I was like, wow, you know
what I mean. I was like, that's I was thinking.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
In my mind. I was like, man, that's crazy.
Speaker 4 (26:03):
So I think out of anybody, Detroit and DC Washington,
they told me they were going to pick me at nine.
They called me at like pick five or six, like
we're picking you at nine, and then they called.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Me a pick like eight and we're like never mind.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
So there's like there's like some extra juice I think
between those those two teams. But everything happened for a reason, bro,
And of course it's it's easy for me to tell
you now, like yeah, I'm still mad about it because
I mean Sack traded me, you know whatever, But no,
I think everything happens for a reason, bro.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
And it was like, you know, I didn't want to
play with I didn't want.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
To get drafted to you know, Atlanta or Cleveland because
they had DG and Trey, And I was like, I
want to play the point and I end up getting
drafted to Sack where they have a point too, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
So I tried to maneuver my way, but it didn't.
It didn't do nothing different. Like everything happens for a reason,
and that's why I'm here now.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
You know, it all worked out, and it's the show
all worked out, you know what I mean, Like the
trade and the way you came out last even last year.
Like as soon as the trade happened, as soon as
the trade happened in like your first two or three games,
I was looking like, yeah, this was this is the
right move.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Like I like, did you think you were gonna get
drafted by Philly? Where do you think you were gonna go? Listen?
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Okay, I don't think I've ever talked about this. I
didn't talk to Philly whole draft process. I think that
may have been one of the only like three teams I.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Didn't talk to.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
I talked to everybody else because my range was so wide, right,
I had like I had you know, Rich was telling
me is like, look you can go from anywhere between
eight and twenty four.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I think he told me eight and twenty four.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Like, so because you can go like and that's such
a wide range, we're gonna meet with all these different teams.
So I met with every I'm talking about everybody all
the way up to that. But we didn't meet with Philly.
Philly did.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
I did not meet with Philly. Like I think Philly like.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
They had some other stuff going, like they had to
get out at the higher doc at the higher Darryl,
you know what I'm saying, So they would probably worry
about that. And on draft night, well, Rich, I'm talking
to Rich like, he's okay. Orlando at fifteen. At first
it was the Spurs. It's like, all right, I think
the Spurs wanna get you at whatever it was eleven.
So then he calls me because the RP was he
was in LA's on the phone working, so then he
(28:11):
called him like, no, no Spurs, so okay. So then
after he says no Spurs, he says Orlando. He said
Orlando or Dallas, Orlando or Dallas. I'm all right cool.
Orlando had fifteen, Dallas had I want to say, eighteen
eighteen or nineteen. So we get to Orlando. He calls
me back boom, they say no. I'm like, all right,
(28:33):
now I'm getting now like I'm getting I haven't met
with these teams coming up, you know what I mean,
like the writers, like the Rockets, the Thunder, it was
another team that I hadn't met with, and then it
was I think it was Brooklyn and then it was Philly.
So now I'm looking like, oh no, like I don't know,
I haven't met with these teams. I'm about to fall
out the first round somehow, and I'm now I'm frustrated.
(28:53):
He calls me back after Dallas and Dallas took Josh screen,
so I'm like, dang, the home hometown team I didn't
get like.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
No love there.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
And then have O Miami. He calls that Miami. Miami
has twenty, so it's like picking nineteen. Now it calls
like the you know, the room is split between you know,
getting the guard or going big, but they had just
drafted Tyler Hero, So I'm like all right, and then
he calls back saying no. So I'm like at this point,
like I got my phone down, I dan got tears
(29:22):
in my eyes because I'm scared.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
You know what I'm saying. I went from the whole
year playing the whole year at Kentucky.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Everybody said, oh, he's gonna be a lottery pick, gonna
be like, you know what I'm saying, all that until
now I'm out of the top. I'm out the top
twenty right, So now I'm frustrated. And then they don't
even like my uncle he knows and he rich Pad
calls my uncle, he tells him, all right, he's going
to fill that twenty one. So when I get drafted,
I don't even know how to, like, it's my first
time beating everybody if you didn't have to zoom with them.
(29:50):
So it was it was really cool though, man, Like
it's just surreal, Like it just shows you how crazy
the draft process really is. Because I said, I didn't have,
you know, one conversation with Philly. Philly was never on
my mind, and it was just like, honestly, like, I'm
just so blessed that I was able to actually come here, honestly,
because it just it just worked out for me. It
(30:10):
really worked out for me. It's a great situation for
me now, even though it's so many different variables that
I can go into all day, but we're not here
to talk about that. We're not here to talk about that.
But anyway, we're gonna take a quick break really fast
and we come back.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
We'll get into some quick personal stuff with ty Reson.
Let him go, let him go.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
We're gonna we're trying to push the Tyre's Toms Tarre's backcourt.
We all started there, you go, let's go, all right,
welcome back. We're still with Pacers point Guard, the other Tyrese,
(30:51):
the main Tyres Tyres, Tyler Burdon, Tyri's first person. I
got really like, really quick, how did your environment that
picked Tyres?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Had that name come? Where's that come from? Where's that
original from?
Speaker 4 (31:04):
I don't know how you got it, but me, Tyree's Gibbson,
the singer and the actor at the time, he was
on MTV like he was hosting or something like that.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
Uh, and my mom seen the name watching TV. It
was like, I like that name. It just gave me.
Tyree's from there.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
And my mom collected beanie babies when she was a kid,
and so she wanted tie in the name. So Tyree's
hit all hit right there.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Wow, Wow, I didn't Okay, Wow, that's different. See, my
mom's name is is Denise and my dad's name is Tyrone.
So it took the first three letters of my dad's name,
t y R, and then the esc for my mom's name,
and they just combined it and got Tyre's.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
So it's like that's kind of fire.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Yeah, it's kind of cool. So I did when I
was growing up, people like, man, you just wanted to
be like, you know Tyre's gifts. I'm like, I mean,
that's not what they told me, you know, but.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Na, that's you know, that's a unique name.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
That's a stat or somebody tagged me in the NBA
post something that we are the only two NBA players
named Tyrese. That's one. We were drafted same class, And
it was like they was talking about like you know,
percentages and all that. I can't I'm not going to
all of that, but like, is this your first time
meeting somebody with the same name. I think I don't
(32:20):
think I know anybody else other than the Gibson Like
the same name.
Speaker 4 (32:24):
Nah, I think you're the first one. I think you're
the first one. I always think it's.
Speaker 5 (32:27):
Cool like that we have we have the same name.
Speaker 4 (32:29):
I tried to get I try to find like a
like a rookie card from both of us, because I
think that's cool that like we both are the first
two and in the same class, and hopefully another one.
Speaker 5 (32:40):
I think there's another one at Duke right now.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Terre's like Procter or something. Hopefully he's like the third one.
But yeah, no, I always I didn't even know you
when we first got in the league, but I was like,
I want to see I want to see him succeed.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
We got the same name. I want to see him succeed.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Right, No, that's crazy, Like that's all. It's funny. I'm
watching the game.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
I'll be watching games on TV and I'm yeah the
TV like like we best friend.
Speaker 5 (33:01):
I'm like, I want you to I want you to
cook people Like I'm.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Like, man, you know what I'm saying. I was so
I text you like I was so happy for you
to make the All Star Game, like you like you
know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (33:09):
You for you?
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Of course, then you putting on like just for like
us who got you know, fail in the draft because
you I know you feel like you fail in the
draft and it was overlooked or whatever. Man, and I
just you know it's I appreciate that for sure. But anyways,
let's talk about let's about some high school stuff, because
I don't I don't recall playing you in high school.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Never were you a what au like? What is it like?
Did you play on the circuit?
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Nah? I didn't play on the circuit because I played
for like a local team at the crib.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
So like local team I could have played with, Like
I had a chance to play, I could have played Nike,
Adidas are under Armer my seventeen year.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
I could have left and played any of them. But
I already had all the mid major offers that I thought.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I was gonna end up going anyway. So I was like,
I'm just gonna stick with my homeboys and do that.
And now I've took an over the program. Now they're
w E Y c L with Nike next year. But like,
you know, I just played with my friends back home,
and so like, yeah, nah, you've definitely never seen me.
Nobody ever saw me in high school.
Speaker 2 (34:07):

Speaker 1 (35:42):
You know. It's because you're from America. You can always
be a Cowboys fan.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
You're a Cowboys fan in Philly. How does that work?
Speaker 3 (35:51):
You know?
Speaker 1 (35:52):
They kind of they understand because I'm from I'm from Dallas.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
Right, but you don't. I don't ever see where like
Cowboys get to the game or nothing.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
No, no, no, I love I love the Eagles. The Eagles,
I just can't love them as much when they're playing
the Cowboys. Right, Like, I'm not a Cowboys fan. I
didn't grow I didn't get to see the Super Bowl.
So like, I'm not gonna sit here and say I
expect them to kill every year, like they're really good
this year.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
So like I don't.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
I don't hate the Eagles, you know what I'm saying.

I'm a fan of Cowboys. I'm from Dallas.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Right.
Speaker 5 (36:23):
No, No, that makes sense, that's fair, that's fair.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Growing up you were so you say Packers fan? Does
that make you you was a Bucks fan?
Speaker 5 (36:29):
They were trash when I was little though.
Speaker 4 (36:32):
It was like Michael Red that was like, and Brandon Jennings.
When brand James came, he was cracking. Me and Tyler
used to go to the games together just to go.
Like we used to go like the Thunder game every year,
and we a Thunder game and the Heat game and
the Cavs game.
Speaker 5 (36:45):
Whenever bron or KD played, we'd.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Go, y'all, y'all played you entirely. Y'all played high school
against each other.
Speaker 4 (36:51):
No, we never played a game, I mean au but
never played never played high school game against yea he
we were supposed to my our senior year, but he
had got hurt like.
Speaker 5 (36:59):
The week before, so we ended up not playing each other.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Really he was he was praising high school.
Speaker 5 (37:04):
I know, I know, Ball's life. All yeah, he was
that like mixtape. Remember he's playing it. All the little
dudes that mixtape were crazy when we were in high school.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
Okay, dang damn all right, dam okay, Well I got
a coble more for you, cold core because this is
just coming out the top of my head.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
One USA this year, How was that experience for it?
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Was it different than USA when we were younger at all?
Speaker 4 (37:27):
Like yeah, for sure, bro, for sure, because when you're younger,
it's like, honestly, everybody's like scared of you, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 5 (37:34):
Like we walked into we walked in the arena. My
USA nineteen.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
We have one game within twenty five except for the championship.
We went every game by more than twenty five. So
like every we won the game before we even walked
in the door, like they were just scared of us,
you know. And then the championshipame, we play against like
Mally and they played hard and ended up only went
about like fifteen. But like this was way different because
that scare factor's gone. Everybody's profession knows, we.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
All play against each other all the time, you know,
so that was a that was a different part of it.
But no, it was a good experience. It was fun.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
Obviously we didn't win, so like that made it. That
made it like everybody's out. It was trash because you
didn't win. But I had a good experience, bro, And
I think I think I'm a part of that. I
think we're both a part of that like group that's
gonna help transition because like this year it's going to
be all that got Like Bron's gonna play, all them
dudes are gonna play the kind of like probably their
last one, but you know next is like the next
(38:28):
number is like l A. You know, like it's like
we're part of that young group that's part of that
transition to to our age.
Speaker 2 (38:35):
You know, it's gonna be a big one. And that's
gonna be a big one. That's when they get serious. Yeah,
that's get serious. And then last thing I got for you,
we have to talk about this all right. Yeah, I
mean I know you probably get asked a question online
and everybody once you talk about we got to talk
about the jump shot man, what how what what? Okay,
that thing goes? I really do think the ball is
(38:56):
going in every time. But when you look at it,
I know you people like why.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
Right right right?
Speaker 1 (39:03):
What did that come? Like?
Speaker 2 (39:05):
What is that?
Speaker 5 (39:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (39:06):
When I was little, bro, I just I had to
figure out a way to shoot, so, like you know,
I just used to if you look at like videotaping
me from like when I was little, I used to
have to like bring it to my knees and then
get to the set and then push it.
Speaker 5 (39:17):
And then when I got as I got older, I
started I met my AU coach with my trainer.
Speaker 4 (39:21):
We used to make and drill all the time, every day,
all day over the shoulders, like don't drop it. And
then that that got me like used to keeping the
ball above my shoulders so I could just catch it
and just shoot it and not have to dip it.
But he was like, you make it it a high clip.
As long as you keep it above your shoulders, then
I'm not worried about it.
Speaker 5 (39:39):
So I just kept it there.
Speaker 4 (39:40):
And then and then I got to I got to college,
and I thought I might have to change it in college,
but then I was like shooting forty percent in college
and and they were like they left me alone about it.
And I came to NBA and it was the same thing.
So I was like, I ain't gonna change it, and
as goes in and then now it's just it's stuck.
Speaker 2 (39:56):
Now, you know what.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
I hope you don't well play us you can change.
I hope you won't change forty something like when.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
I first came to league, everybody used to go under
and everybody used to help off me because they thought
they looked weird. And I was like that That's what
gave me confidence early in my career because I was like,
nobody's guarding me like bat like and they was just
making them And then it was like, oh, okay, he
can actually shoot.
Speaker 5 (40:18):
It just looks funny. So I'm the king of Like,
I don't care your jumper looks I just want to
see it go in. Like I'm the biggest proponent of it.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah, why does it matter? I've been I mean, I
said all the time too, like why does it matter
what it looks like? You ripped something? You know what
I'm saying thousands thousands, thousands of times and you making it?
You can shoot with clothes that make you feel better.
Speaker 5 (40:38):
Than me exactly exactly go in.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
That's all that mattered. That's all I matter. But no, man,
I appreciate you, man, I appreciate you coming on.

tournament game against the Calves on Tuesday. So we've got
a good stretch coming up here, and it's our first
game against these Eastern Conference foes. So we're gonna look
go out there and look to send a message and
that should be great. But now I want to tell
(42:11):
you what I'm thankful for. I want to say that
I'm thankful for I haven't talked about it, but my
Turkey drive, my Turkey drive and my foundation.
Speaker 5 (42:19):
That was great.
Speaker 1 (42:20):
That was amazing, you know.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
To see that we were able to give out a
thousand dinners. The dinners fed up to six to eight people,
so roughly roughly, or you know, five to eight roughly.
Speaker 1 (42:32):
We'll just say we were able.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
To bless five to like seven thousand people with food
for this upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, and that just makes me,
you know, that makes me extremely happy. And side, I'm
very thankful that I have the platform and I have
the ability to think for my foundation as well, but
we have the ability to bless families and make people
(42:56):
like see people smile and make people happy in the
holiday season, which is probably one of the toughest times
of the year.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
So I'm saying I'm thankful for that.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
And then I'll say when I want to get one
percent better at and this week coming up, and just
finding ways to keep improving my game that can help
us win. Like I said, you know, it's been it's
been different. You know this year, the teams are trying
to guard me differently. I'm still staying aggressive, Nick Nurses,
It's going to make sure I stay aggressive. My team
is going to make sure I stay aggressive. But finding
(43:24):
different ways and looking forward to honestly really looking forward
to it because it challenges me.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
I watch a lot more film. I always watch film.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Now watch a lot more film just on how teams
guarded different league guards in the past. And it's been great.
It's been really fun and I'm really looking forward to
the challenge. I'm really looking forward to stepping up and
being the best possible player for this this organization that
my teammates.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
So yeah, those are my two things. You know.
