We played for Charlotte last Cole. I thought it was
belated than what I thought it was gonna be. I
heard his little hot nigga freestyle like fourteen.

I told him, I said one day.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I don't know who I was talking to, I said,
but he he crassed, so you can walk. Because he
was the first one, not the first rapper, I mean,
Steven Jackson, a couple of the other people World Peace,
they all rapped, but he was the first one that
was kind of like in a new era. Like when
he did the hot nigga freestyle, ship to be rapping,
it was kind of lit, and the way they did
it was like the videos was lit and ship. And
(07:51):
then when you came along and started rapping. I mean,
obviously dang rap too, but yeah, ship was like Bro,

it was his favorite team after I've been fucking with
the horners and we locked in.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
When you start rapping, uh, I always just love music
as a little kid, but like just rapping on the
lunch tables a little freestyles. But when I first got
in the studio for real, it was probably like I
was like eighteen, I want rapping for real.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
I was just you know, still playing around.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
But I really didn't start taking here till like twenty
twenty when COVID hit. That's when I dropped my first
tape up the Score, and after that I just went off.
I was rapping with d Bacon though before that twenty nineteen,
like we had Dwayne here bucket, but he really got
me on the music wave where I was like confident
in doing my own ship.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
That's when spoted. I mean I called a nigga spot
a sid of speak. You bro, just don't having that talk.
He was like, nah, they for the club. Bro excited man.

Speaker 4 (13:38):
That was crazy class. Yeah, I remember you killed Purdue.
I think so freshman year, you had like thirty three
or something on that. Maybe that's that's the time we lost.
The second time I killed him, I had the game winner.
That was my sophomore year. Yeah, I just that's what
about Purdue, Bro. I just didn't like him.

Speaker 5 (14:34):
Yeah. The first game and I had a little twenty
piece with that game winner kind of made it.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
Like, yeah, he had a game. That's the first time
I noticed like, oh he's special. He a dog. I
heard your name because I followed he you heavy, But
I was like, no, you can really ball for real.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Bro, for sure?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
What made you come back to school sophomore year? I
just feel like I wan already.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
You know.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
My freshman I feel like my game wasn't as defined
as as I wanted to be, you know, going against
the best in the world. I wanted to get my
handles better, my decision making better. Coach Is he helped
me with that.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
For Shure, I couldn't believe you came back.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Freshman year when Mama was mad at me too.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Yeah, shout out to Mama. I would have been pissed
because I was.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
I was like, what the expected to retire to everything?
She's like, what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (15:24):
No?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
He made a good decision though, I mean it was
all it all worked out, but it was hot though.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Bro, he was gonna.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Believe I said, he go ahead of.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Faith is to me a party when I came back.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
He should, bro, party should have been stupid. Should have
been one of the five to twenty parts.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Did he had Did he play a part of your
decision though, of believing or did he was like, you know, man,
I love for you to come back, but you know,
I do what's best for you.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
He wanted me to do it best for me. He
really wanted me to leave, like my second year, Jaron
was with me. Jaron Jackson, Yeah, yeah, he he was
trying to come back for his second year and coaches like, man,
get out of here. Man, like, what are you doing?
You top four pick? But with me it was different.
I was like top ten, top eleven.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
So yeah, he made it work, bro, Yeah he got
to do.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
And it's mar because a lot of times you see
people who leave after that freshman year and yeah, you
get a lottery pick, but then it ain't gonna work
out in that second contract already kind of spoken, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
That's what I was scared of for. I just didn't
want to go to the league just to say I
went to the league. I wanted to actually, you know,
make an impact for me.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
So I ain't gonna lie like watching you when you
came in the league. You you know, stupid athletic. You
know you dunk on people, got bounced lives and all that.
You and LaMelo had a stupid connection. And then I
kept watching and all of a sudden, I'm like, man,
it's my fucking shoot. Because when he was at Michigan State,
I seen you make threes, but I didn't label you
(16:59):
a shooter, like I was like, man, you not knocked down.
But now that I watch you, it's like you can't
leave him evening shoot? So like, how was that development,
you know, working on your shot being a pro and
then going to the league and becoming a pro and
working on your shot and stuff like that.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
I mean, I ain't gonna lie like Cat and saying
I put up a thousand shots today. But I put
up I put I like this, I put it. I
put up a whole lot of shots. Man, I put
up a whole lot of shots for show, just trying
to prepare.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
We saw trying to fake my ship. Bro.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
The only thing I can get away with that is
Kobe saying that the recipe recipes to Kobe that I
can get away with put shot.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Everybody else.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
I know you put That's what he deserves. Cat, you
putting up with your days.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
That's why he was meant to be over because he
tells the real tells the truth. Nobody he said fifty money.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Fifty nuts cut out.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I love that people because he I fuck with that
because I like himself strongly. I tell the kids that
I tell the kids at the school that coach had Pike,
that I worked out three times and that I did never.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Man was the question.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
It doesn't work out today? Whole coach. I definitely that's
what man.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
So you kill your sophomore year, Bro, what when did
you know at that point, like you was ready to
go to the draft?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
I mean I knew I was. I was gonna go
either way either way.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Yeah, I mean, I was just I was just trying
to just stay consistently without that whole whole year, so
my my stock wouldn't go down.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
You know me, I was just focusing on winning and
I just carried over to my game.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
So yeah, that's what it was. He end up Charlotte
was anywhere else you think you was gonna go? But
where did you want to go?
Speaker 2 (18:59):
I thought I was gonna go to Knicks.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Real.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
I was in a little matchup me and Kevin Knox
back back in the day, and they came out that
because he was going crazy in that little it was
like a three on three? What six people in the draft?
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Draft? Is it six people or is it three people?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
My draft is a little different. He adn't have to work,
I'm old he was it.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Was six people.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
It was six people because we was playing three on
three and Kevin Knox was killing like he was hitting anything,
half court shots, all type of ship no exaggeration, and
somebody at leaked and it was like Kevin Knox's bust,
miles of ass boom.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I don't think he's coming to the Knicks no more
after that.
Speaker 5 (19:37):
I mean, they picked Kevin Knox over me at I
think number nine, number nine, because that's where I thought
I was about to go. I know, going to the Rings,
but I thought I was going to the Knicks.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Though.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Damn it all worked out. You see how you see
how God worked. So Nicks might not have been meant
for you because Kevin Knox ship. So I stuck with
Kevin Knox. I thought he was a good player, but damn.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I just feel like playing in New York is just
a different breed.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I turned it down. No serve, you're not about to
end me. There's a lot of expectations.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
You got to be built for you to be built.
Y'all wouldn't built for that moment.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
And it's all crazy, but that was killing mellow, Like
if y'all killing anybody.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
That's when I knew I wasn't about him.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
Yeah, we'll imagine what you're gonna say about me. Yeah,
he was gonna get talked about real Dusty.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
I was go have some Hello stories.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
You get Hello stories.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Imagine my New York stories, the joints I would have
had outside.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
Charlotte though, you more free though. They kind of let
you work on your game and figure it out as
a season though in fact, how was that transition though? Bro,
your first game would you spoop like, oh, ship, this

on my ship.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Yeah, hell, y'all, I knew how to get stronger. I
knew how to get stronger. I knew how to get
more disciplined. I was fucking up the coverages. I didn't
played for the next three games after that fighteam in
the fourth quarter against the Magic and the Ever since then,
me and Kimball was rocking that year.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Facts, Yeah, I knew.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
How to get better.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Who was a coachre for a rookie James Brigo?
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Okay, b.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
I fuck with him.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
He got he got a cool dude, cool heah for sure.
Like you said, you came to the horness team with Kimber.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Kember had the city on lock the car yeah crazy.
I was at there walking, you know what I'm saying
to see him. That was what NBA season.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
NBA third, he was thirteen. He was dropping sixties on Jimmy,
fifties on Donmi Mitchell.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I was like this a different breeding. No.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Five ten Kimber wanted the like I'm glad you shaid
like on kimb because Kimble one of the coldest people
I ever played against.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Kimba cod No.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
I had a chance to play with him in Boston
and he wanted the coolest it was ever.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
So I know he was probably super cool.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
But to have him like see him doing that that
they like did inspire you, Like, ship, I gotta work
on my game because I ain't gonna lie Kimba shooting.
He shoot a Heller. Well, I was with the Celtics.
He was shooting a lot of shots. He was in
but he was getting shot up. I don't know how
it was.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
At that time.
Speaker 5 (23:32):
He was getting Hello shot too, for sure. It was
in that corner. I was in that corner coming on
the screens, pulling, but it was going in and he
was doing his things.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
So Kimber was a gun what.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
Anytime he came off the screen, he was shooting the ball,
but he was killing So I couldn't even say nothink
average like twenty seven a year.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
No, he was Kimber one of the colders I ever played.
I swear I used to trapping. I was like, I
used to look at him. We came together like you
don't you're gonna have a night to night beca, We're
gonna trap you out.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
You trapped quick split.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, he got all that handle game crazy, all that
he ended. It's a dude named Gary McGee. Shout out
to big G. I played with him au since I
was little will Soon and Kimber was in college. Man,
you know that step back he did with a dude
from Pittfield. That's Gary McGee.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
That's him.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Yeah, from me from Indy and Indiana. But he was
my guy, Kimber brewing his career. Man, he had a
chance make to the leaky Kimber. Kimber dropped him in
the guard g Biggie Mship.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
That's probably the best game winner ever. Like in my books.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
As a Louisville fan, A like having nightmares of that
biggest front. He was like they whooped ass every single day.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
Ship. That's one of the hardest championship runs.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Bro, Kimber that guy man for sure.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
So but the fact that he had you on the corner,
I had them kind of moments, man, It's all he
was gunn you.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Like you said, though, he probably one of the best
best ever man like that.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
He put me.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Under his wing, taught me the game, come to his
crib and chill. I just feel like, you know, he
was one of my brothers.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
So, kim people, Bro, great people. I ain't gonna lie.
He the reason motherfuckers called me Jet. I was about
to ask you about that. I heard that earlier. Yeah,
kim So Brad Stevens brought up a player and called
me Jet. Right, the ship didn't really have no legs
to Kimba got hold of that ship. He's like, call,
you know, got that New York accent ship.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I'm like, damn, nobody really had no legs.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I'm like every person I heard called Jet their needs
was fucked up.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
He was fucked up. So I'm like.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Joe, he just couldn't call me j T because Jason
Tatum was j T. So he just kind of you know,
T zero yeah, zero two, Nigga, it is my whole
life zero he was fifty five.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
My whole life was fucked up in Boston. He lived
ground with a curse of the line back for the Patriots.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
But they gave my whole time and Boston.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
I was done so that Nigga just started calling me
Jet like Niggas wasn't saying that to Kimba was like
yo Jet, like it was funny because it's Kimba.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
It just kind of stuck. I was sucking with it.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
After a while.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Everybody in his comments call you Jet now, everybody called
me ja.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
How did you feel when Kimba gunn and Ass was
finally got the ball? I feel, I mean, dog k
is here actually right now. So it's tellophone shout out
to broke.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
But we went.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
We went from like them in the ninth seed to
like the thirteenth seed. But I got them shot.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Cool, so I had to get on my hand a
little bit.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
I got the mellow turn up. No facts. Everything happened
for a reason.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
I was going from know what I'm saying, kim lamellow
more of a pass for point guard.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
It was good.
Speaker 5 (27:29):
I just have to be like more on more of
my ship with with with Mellow because you never know
when he's throwing the ball, Like I seen him throw
a full court underhand pass to me. So it's definitely
a difference. But like I said, I love watching kimber Man.
Like I said, I watched Kimba dropped sixty on Jimmy Butler.
That's probably one of the crazy games I've ever seen.
And I've seen Mellow have fifteen assists, sixteen assists and
(27:52):
it's still crazy to see. So it's just like, I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Now you wouldn't blessed to play with some dope point guards, bros.
Because Kimball when he was playing, was one of the
dopest and he was crazy like to be all NBA
in that era at that time when he was playing
game Westbrook, come on the list, goes on bro to be.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
I don't do that. I will all NBA. I ain't
gonna lie. I was out.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I was sorry, Charlotte Club, Philly Club, Minnesota, White Girl Club.
I'm just out South and stay away from them, nigga Dan.
But that's that's another story here and there. But now
you blessed to play with dope point guard so to
(28:37):
come in with kimber All NBA super bad Cold and
then to get a lamellow a young guy who comes
in super flair, a lot of passing, high expectations. You know,
people was excited that he came in the league. I
mean he had a super super dope following for you
to get that, to be a part of that and
y'all to grow and y'all look like y'all best of friend.
Speaker 5 (28:59):
You know what I'm saying for Shore my brother, Well, no,
I mean basketball make make people closer in family for life.
So in fact, it was a blessing me Mellow. You know,
I feel like if he if he's not injury, he's
top three garden to leave. I'm not even being biased
like that.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
That's that's his man's right. Just watching him. He can
do everything you do everything on.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
The Everything Special six eight Nigga fast quick legit six yeah,
measurements and he can shoot that bitch bro.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Fact, I'm a fanel La Mellow.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
I just want to ask him how to fun did
his brother get a new knee?
Speaker 4 (29:34):
They were kind of chicken because.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Nigga, I know kimper here too, like that would change
my life still be I.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Still didn't want the surgery. Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (29:45):

never had him over the recipes, Kobe, I damn had.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
It was a question. It was a question.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
It was a conversation.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
It was a question.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
The conversation, it was a conversation tamate bets deep in
the right.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
I gotta tell you, I gotta take k I'm not
mad at you feeling that, but at one point it
was close. It was a conversation. I was definitely a conversation.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I actually I've seen that teammate episode.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
I fucking Vince Carter back, though I thought VC was better,
I can't say that though.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
That's tough.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
I thought it was. That's just tough.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
I'm not managing for I'm saying, like, when Vince Carter
was Vince Carter, it's just me. When Vince Carter was
Vince Carter in Toronto, that ship was that he was
getting fit, going back and forth. Ever, soon he was
like Jordan two point oh yeah, I was Vince Carter,
but like slip contest Vince Carter Brough, he was themn
Mari like Nike Shock like.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
We looked at him differently. Niggas was the word on
Nike Shock jeans. That's how much of an impact he
had on y'all.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Was out of pocket niggas. I had the silver Wares
with the blue sharks on the back. I had the
black I had the black Grand red ones.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
I was out of didn't do that. I didn't do
that week.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
That was schwag. By the time, he was the highest
skiddy you so you were. We were soldier boy?
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Who was he? A little jerking era.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
We went through a little jerking and he advance, but
in went through everybody like they like Boosy and Webby.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
So so you had a big shirts from.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
School twenty sixteen. Oh yeah, they was whipping and that problem.
He just said the songs I was popping that era. Literally, Yeah,
you a jerk and ship. I need to w one time.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
That's why.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
You're on some who shit though, what you think y'all
need to make that next week? Like this year, like
to enter the playoffs, like what you think you'll are
missing the piece you feel like or it's just the chemistry.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
I feel like we got everything we need, you know,
we gotta we got a new coach. Coach, he's got
to stay away from injuries.
Speaker 4 (33:42):
Man. Yes, that's all it is for with us, That's
all this.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
I fuck with your new coach, Charlesty.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
He was with me in Atlanta and Milwaukee, but I
was winning with a young Atlanta when he just came
from buck Nell.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
He was fresh. He's a lot of energy, cool dude.
I rock with him. I think he's gonna be great
for y'all this year.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Super super super smart when it comes to this basketball
schemes and everything like that.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
So I'm excited for y'all.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
So I think I had Charlotte being one of my
surprise teams because of Charles. But I'm excited to see
you in a new dynamic. Like obviously not to talk
about people money, we don't do that out here. But
you know you're good five when you got what you need.
You know what I'm saying, everythanks, probably got a new
(34:29):
crib on the way all that I feel, Yeah, go ahead.
So now you're in that stage where you you kind
of a veteran and now it's time to win. You know,
first when you get the lea want to get that money,
blah blah blah. But now you got it, it's time
to win. How you feel about Charles and what he's
bringing to the table, how y'all schemes, how the preseasons going, everything,
(34:53):
how you feel about it.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
That's perfect. I mean, Charlie a defensive money. He a
defensive mining coach, and that's exactly what we need, you know, Charlie.
I feel like we was dead not dead last, but
twenty nine damn there, dead last and deep inst and
so yeah, we get that up. I feel like we're
in the middle of the pack and then plus our
offense getting better us turn the ball over a little
bit less and then Mellow coming back.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
You know, I feel like that that push us over
the edge.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
But for me on the on the money thing, I
feel like if a show changes your mindset, for shure,
you you for show going to like just anything to
win any role they want you to play.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Well.
Speaker 5 (35:30):
In my case, you know, because we got two young killers,
we got Mellow, we got b Neal. So for me,
I'm not saying I'm taking a back seat, But at
the same time, I know my role with the team,
and certain niggas they don't they don't they don't get
that rush. But I'm at the point in my career
I'm trying to take it to the playoffs. I still
make it to the playoffs yet, Yeah, I don't know.
It's different for show and some people when they get money,
(35:51):
they they just stopped playing all together. You know, they
get satisfied, don't He was cold, but I was that
was that was he was cold.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
But niggas for that we're trying to make was after
the first bag, We're trying second back.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
I was like, all right, this is your ten, Like okay, yeah, no,
Kim will get the first back.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
He was still trying to play.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
He was still crow Kim on the stand.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
I love kimber Kimble was playing hard. He was snatched
back and knee to the ground. Fade away, step back.
You got right. I don't know what he got no
work for he got one.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
He's all right now you listen. He got the one fifty.
He's up a look, J go ahead of ther thing,
J C, J B go crazy. But you know what
I mean, Bro, You you was able to win though
a lot, you know, since you was in the league.
(36:55):
So Bro trying to be trying to tap into that.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
You know what I'm saying. But he's still he just
this is after his rookie year. He hold at you nothing.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
He's still young, you know, got a couple of years
and then he get to that twenty nine thirty. It's
time to reup. So you in that stage where you
gotta win. You want to win.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
For the rest of your career. That long ngevity so.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
And for showing the city like Charlotte, that got a
great fan base like that. Already our game is already
super exciting. Y'all get to the playoffs, that's gonna really
be up the city already with y'all heavy, for sure.
Speaker 5 (37:23):
I want to see that playoff environment in Charlotte because
you know, I watched the d Way when he when
he went up against the Dude and Charlotte and all
that ship, and i've seen them with even like with
the Panthers.
Speaker 4 (37:33):

to make head great.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
Still, Joe wi th bro well, he doesn't deserve regards.
Speaker 4 (41:16):
He got a coach. Walker came coach CoA coach.

So your matchup you who is Luka your match up?
Speaker 2 (41:57):

easier guard? Oh damn, don't do that he got.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
I'm saying I got guys, don't put that up like.

Yeah, I'll say I'll say, looka because sometimes lu can
take the day off on certain matchups, like if you
don't feel like playing that day. You know, he had
to get that bitch to re redo your things and
go get forty.
Speaker 4 (42:46):
That's the luxury he got sha he straight to it
every day.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
Yeah. Respect, they both tough covers. But I ain't gonna
let I ain't gonna let him get you know.

We played for Charlotte last Cole. I thought it was
belated than what I thought it was gonna be. I
heard his little hot nigga freestyle like fourteen.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
That was cool too. But he went off on the radar.
I told him, I said one day.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I don't know who I was talking to, I said,
but he he crassed, so you can walk. Because he
was the first one, not the first rapper, I mean,
Steven Jackson, a couple of the other people World Peace,
they all rapped, but he was the first one that
was kind of like in a new era. Like when
he did the hot nigga freestyle, ship to be rapping,
it was kind of lit, and the way they did
it was like the videos was lit and ship. And
(07:51):
then when you came along and started rapping. I mean,
obviously dang rap too, but yeah, ship was like Bro,
I'm like, yeah, that's what I listened to.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
So I've seen the YouTube videos. I said, now I'm
fucking with this shit. When niggas got the music videos
gas Station, I'm locked there. He was his favorite. Yeah,
it was his favorite team after I've been fucking with
the horners and we locked in.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
When you start rapping, uh, I always just love music
as a little kid, but like just rapping on the
lunch tables a little freestyles. But when I first got
in the studio for real, it was probably like I
was like eighteen, I want rapping for real.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
I was just you know, still playing around.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
But I really didn't start taking here till like twenty
twenty when COVID hit. That's when I dropped my first
tape up the Score, and after that I just went off.
I was rapping with d Bacon though before that twenty nineteen,
like we had Dwayne here bucket, but he really got
me on the music wave where I was like confident
in doing my own ship.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
That's when spoted. I mean I called a nigga spot
a sid of speak. You bro, just don't having that talk.
He was like, nah, they for the club. Bro excited man.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
As soon as I got drafted out, I was about
to go to one of his concerts.
Speaker 5 (09:08):

his head. He showed me love him, and so they
showed me love. So ever since then, in sort have
been locked in him skillern.

everybody in that class that was a top guy damn
there in the NBA and they like thriving in the
NBA for sixteen.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
That was crazy class. Yeah, I remember you killed Purdue.
I think so freshman year, you had like thirty three
or something on that. Maybe that's that's the time we lost.
The second time I killed him, I had the game winner.
That was my sophomore year. Yeah, I just that's what
about Purdue, Bro. I just didn't like him.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
No, Bro, I me and you on the same way.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
No, I know you. I committed talk, but I didn't
have an offer he had.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
Damn. I don't want no dad hats right now on
the front l A. I thought I.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Had no offer for real.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
I called him and said, yeah, I'm coming away. I'm
coming to producer man who they say.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
They was like, we're gonna call you right back.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I was like what he was like, we don't have
any more offers everything ever since then, I'm glad you
killed him.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Yeah. The first game and I had a little twenty
piece with that game winner kind of made it.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
Like, yeah, he had a game. That's the first time
I noticed like, oh he's special. He a dog. I
heard your name because I followed he you heavy, But
I was like, no, you can really ball for real.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Bro, for sure?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
What made you come back to school sophomore year? I
just feel like I wan already.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
You know.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
My freshman I feel like my game wasn't as defined
as as I wanted to be, you know, going against
the best in the world. I wanted to get my
handles better, my decision making better. Coach Is he helped
me with that.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
For Shure, I couldn't believe you came back.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Freshman year when Mama was mad at me too.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Yeah, shout out to Mama. I would have been pissed
because I was.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
I was like, what the expected to retire to everything?
She's like, what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (15:24):
No?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
He made a good decision though, I mean it was
all it all worked out, but it was hot though.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Bro, he was gonna.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Believe I said, he go ahead of.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Faith is to me a party when I came back.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
He should, bro, party should have been stupid. Should have
been one of the five to twenty parts.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Did he had Did he play a part of your
decision though, of believing or did he was like, you know, man,
I love for you to come back, but you know,
I do what's best for you.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
He wanted me to do it best for me. He
really wanted me to leave, like my second year, Jaron
was with me. Jaron Jackson, Yeah, yeah, he he was
trying to come back for his second year and coaches like, man,
get out of here. Man, like, what are you doing?
You top four pick? But with me it was different.
I was like top ten, top eleven.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
So yeah, he made it work, bro, Yeah he got
to do.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
And it's mar because a lot of times you see
people who leave after that freshman year and yeah, you
get a lottery pick, but then it ain't gonna work
out in that second contract already kind of spoken, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
That's what I was scared of for. I just didn't
want to go to the league just to say I
went to the league. I wanted to actually, you know,
make an impact for me.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
So I ain't gonna lie like watching you when you
came in the league. You you know, stupid athletic. You
know you dunk on people, got bounced lives and all that.
You and LaMelo had a stupid connection. And then I
kept watching and all of a sudden, I'm like, man,
it's my fucking shoot. Because when he was at Michigan State,
I seen you make threes, but I didn't label you
(16:59):
a shooter, like I was like, man, you not knocked down.
But now that I watch you, it's like you can't
leave him evening shoot? So like, how was that development,
you know, working on your shot being a pro and
then going to the league and becoming a pro and
working on your shot and stuff like that.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
I mean, I ain't gonna lie like Cat and saying
I put up a thousand shots today. But I put
up I put I like this, I put it. I
put up a whole lot of shots. Man, I put
up a whole lot of shots for show, just trying
to prepare.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
We saw trying to fake my ship. Bro.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
The only thing I can get away with that is
Kobe saying that the recipe recipes to Kobe that I
can get away with put shot.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Everybody else.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
I know you put That's what he deserves. Cat, you
putting up with your days.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
That's why he was meant to be over because he
tells the real tells the truth. Nobody he said fifty money.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Fifty nuts cut out.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I love that people because he I fuck with that
because I like himself strongly. I tell the kids that
I tell the kids at the school that coach had Pike,
that I worked out three times and that I did never.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Man was the question.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
It doesn't work out today? Whole coach. I definitely that's
what man.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
So you kill your sophomore year, Bro, what when did
you know at that point, like you was ready to
go to the draft?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
I mean I knew I was. I was gonna go
either way either way.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Yeah, I mean, I was just I was just trying
to just stay consistently without that whole whole year, so
my my stock wouldn't go down.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
You know me, I was just focusing on winning and
I just carried over to my game.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
So yeah, that's what it was. He end up Charlotte
was anywhere else you think you was gonna go? But
where did you want to go?
Speaker 2 (18:59):
I thought I was gonna go to Knicks.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Real.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
I was in a little matchup me and Kevin Knox
back back in the day, and they came out that
because he was going crazy in that little it was
like a three on three? What six people in the draft?
Speaker 4 (19:13):
Draft? Is it six people or is it three people?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
My draft is a little different. He adn't have to work,
I'm old he was it.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Was six people.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
It was six people because we was playing three on
three and Kevin Knox was killing like he was hitting anything,
half court shots, all type of ship no exaggeration, and
somebody at leaked and it was like Kevin Knox's bust,
miles of ass boom.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I don't think he's coming to the Knicks no more
after that.
Speaker 5 (19:37):
I mean, they picked Kevin Knox over me at I
think number nine, number nine, because that's where I thought
I was about to go. I know, going to the Rings,
but I thought I was going to the Knicks.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Though.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Damn it all worked out. You see how you see
how God worked. So Nicks might not have been meant
for you because Kevin Knox ship. So I stuck with
Kevin Knox. I thought he was a good player, but damn.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I just feel like playing in New York is just
a different breed.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I turned it down. No serve, you're not about to
end me. There's a lot of expectations.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
You got to be built for you to be built.
Y'all wouldn't built for that moment.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
And it's all crazy, but that was killing mellow, Like
if y'all killing anybody.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
That's when I knew I wasn't about him.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
Yeah, we'll imagine what you're gonna say about me. Yeah,
he was gonna get talked about real Dusty.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
I was go have some Hello stories.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
You get Hello stories.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Imagine my New York stories, the joints I would have
had outside.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
Charlotte though, you more free though. They kind of let
you work on your game and figure it out as
a season though in fact, how was that transition though? Bro,
your first game would you spoop like, oh, ship, this
is the big league?
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Yeah, I was playing against Johnny is my first game?

twenty eighteen, I had one point, y'all talk about BRONNICKI.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Niggas a chance look at mans Firs.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Was the top pitch Bronnie Brod.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
But this is my point, bro, you family, now fuck it,
Donna pod, this is what I'd be saying to people
about this brondniy shit. This nigga was a lottery pick.
But against y'all has had one point one point, Yes, ma'am,

Niggas did not speak on my rookie here rookie Okay,
(21:39):
So this niggas picked fifty fifth and y'all on his ass.
Y'all know what the do y'all know what the fifty
fifth Nigga shot his first preseason game last year. No,
as soon as we walk in here to there like
Brownie was one from no last night, nig You know

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Light of fire and he's like, damn, I gotta work
on my ship.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Yeah, hell, y'all, I knew how to get stronger. I
knew how to get stronger. I knew how to get
more disciplined. I was fucking up the coverages. I didn't
played for the next three games after that fighteam in
the fourth quarter against the Magic and the Ever since then,
me and Kimball was rocking that year.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Facts, Yeah, I knew.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
How to get better.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Who was a coachre for a rookie James Brigo?
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Okay, b.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
I fuck with him.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
He got he got a cool dude, cool heah for sure.
Like you said, you came to the horness team with Kimber.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Kember had the city on lock the car yeah crazy.
I was at there walking, you know what I'm saying
to see him. That was what NBA season.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
NBA third, he was thirteen. He was dropping sixties on Jimmy,
fifties on Donmi Mitchell.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I was like this a different breeding. No.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Five ten Kimber wanted the like I'm glad you shaid
like on kimb because Kimble one of the coldest people
I ever played against.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Kimba cod No.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
I had a chance to play with him in Boston
and he wanted the coolest it was ever.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
So I know he was probably super cool.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
But to have him like see him doing that that
they like did inspire you, Like, ship, I gotta work
on my game because I ain't gonna lie Kimba shooting.
He shoot a Heller. Well, I was with the Celtics.
He was shooting a lot of shots. He was in
but he was getting shot up. I don't know how
it was.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
At that time.
Speaker 5 (23:32):
He was getting Hello shot too, for sure. It was
in that corner. I was in that corner coming on
the screens, pulling, but it was going in and he
was doing his things.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
So Kimber was a gun what.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
Anytime he came off the screen, he was shooting the ball,
but he was killing So I couldn't even say nothink
average like twenty seven a year.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
No, he was Kimber one of the colders I ever played.
I swear I used to trapping. I was like, I
used to look at him. We came together like you
don't you're gonna have a night to night beca, We're
gonna trap you out.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
You trapped quick split.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, he got all that handle game crazy, all that
he ended. It's a dude named Gary McGee. Shout out
to big G. I played with him au since I
was little will Soon and Kimber was in college. Man,
you know that step back he did with a dude
from Pittfield. That's Gary McGee.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
That's him.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Yeah, from me from Indy and Indiana. But he was
my guy, Kimber brewing his career. Man, he had a
chance make to the leaky Kimber. Kimber dropped him in
the guard g Biggie Mship.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
That's probably the best game winner ever. Like in my books.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
As a Louisville fan, A like having nightmares of that
biggest front. He was like they whooped ass every single day.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
Ship. That's one of the hardest championship runs.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Bro, Kimber that guy man for sure.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
So but the fact that he had you on the corner,
I had them kind of moments, man, It's all he
was gunn you.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Like you said, though, he probably one of the best
best ever man like that.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
He put me.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Under his wing, taught me the game, come to his
crib and chill. I just feel like, you know, he
was one of my brothers.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
So, kim people, Bro, great people. I ain't gonna lie.
He the reason motherfuckers called me Jet. I was about
to ask you about that. I heard that earlier. Yeah,
kim So Brad Stevens brought up a player and called
me Jet. Right, the ship didn't really have no legs
to Kimba got hold of that ship. He's like, call,
you know, got that New York accent ship.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I'm like, damn, nobody really had no legs.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I'm like every person I heard called Jet their needs
was fucked up.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
He was fucked up. So I'm like.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Joe, he just couldn't call me j T because Jason
Tatum was j T. So he just kind of you know,
T zero yeah, zero two, Nigga, it is my whole
life zero he was fifty five.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
My whole life was fucked up in Boston. He lived
ground with a curse of the line back for the Patriots.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
But they gave my whole time and Boston.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
I was done so that Nigga just started calling me
Jet like Niggas wasn't saying that to Kimba was like
yo Jet, like it was funny because it's Kimba.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
It just kind of stuck. I was sucking with it.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
After a while.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Everybody in his comments call you Jet now, everybody called
me ja.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
How did you feel when Kimba gunn and Ass was
finally got the ball? I feel, I mean, dog k
is here actually right now. So it's tellophone shout out
to broke.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
But we went.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
We went from like them in the ninth seed to
like the thirteenth seed. But I got them shot.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Cool, so I had to get on my hand a
little bit.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
I got the mellow turn up. No facts. Everything happened
for a reason.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
I was going from know what I'm saying, kim lamellow
more of a pass for point guard.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
It was good.
Speaker 5 (27:29):
I just have to be like more on more of
my ship with with with Mellow because you never know
when he's throwing the ball, Like I seen him throw
a full court underhand pass to me. So it's definitely
a difference. But like I said, I love watching kimber Man.
Like I said, I watched Kimba dropped sixty on Jimmy Butler.
That's probably one of the crazy games I've ever seen.
And I've seen Mellow have fifteen assists, sixteen assists and
(27:52):
it's still crazy to see. So it's just like, I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Now you wouldn't blessed to play with some dope point guards, bros.
Because Kimball when he was playing, was one of the
dopest and he was crazy like to be all NBA
in that era at that time when he was playing
game Westbrook, come on the list, goes on bro to be.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
I don't do that. I will all NBA. I ain't
gonna lie. I was out.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I was sorry, Charlotte Club, Philly Club, Minnesota, White Girl Club.
I'm just out South and stay away from them, nigga Dan.
But that's that's another story here and there. But now
you blessed to play with dope point guard so to
(28:37):
come in with kimber All NBA super bad Cold and
then to get a lamellow a young guy who comes
in super flair, a lot of passing, high expectations. You know,
people was excited that he came in the league. I
mean he had a super super dope following for you
to get that, to be a part of that and
y'all to grow and y'all look like y'all best of friend.
Speaker 5 (28:59):
You know what I'm saying for Shore my brother, Well, no,
I mean basketball make make people closer in family for life.
So in fact, it was a blessing me Mellow. You know,
I feel like if he if he's not injury, he's
top three garden to leave. I'm not even being biased
like that.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
That's that's his man's right. Just watching him. He can
do everything you do everything on.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
The Everything Special six eight Nigga fast quick legit six yeah,
measurements and he can shoot that bitch bro.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Fact, I'm a fanel La Mellow.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
I just want to ask him how to fun did
his brother get a new knee?
Speaker 4 (29:34):
They were kind of chicken because.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Nigga, I know kimper here too, like that would change
my life still be I.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Still didn't want the surgery. Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (29:45):

never had him over the recipes, Kobe, I damn had.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
It was a question. It was a question.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
It was a conversation.
Speaker 4 (31:36):
It was a question.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
The conversation, it was a conversation tamate bets deep in
the right.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
I gotta tell you, I gotta take k I'm not
mad at you feeling that, but at one point it
was close. It was a conversation. I was definitely a conversation.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I actually I've seen that teammate episode.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
I fucking Vince Carter back, though I thought VC was better,
I can't say that though.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
That's tough.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
I thought it was. That's just tough.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
I'm not managing for I'm saying, like, when Vince Carter
was Vince Carter, it's just me. When Vince Carter was
Vince Carter in Toronto, that ship was that he was
getting fit, going back and forth. Ever, soon he was
like Jordan two point oh yeah, I was Vince Carter,
but like slip contest Vince Carter Brough, he was themn
Mari like Nike Shock like.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
We looked at him differently. Niggas was the word on
Nike Shock jeans. That's how much of an impact he
had on y'all.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Was out of pocket niggas. I had the silver Wares
with the blue sharks on the back. I had the
black I had the black Grand red ones.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
I was out of didn't do that. I didn't do
that week.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
That was schwag. By the time, he was the highest
skiddy you so you were. We were soldier boy?
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Who was he? A little jerking era.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
We went through a little jerking and he advance, but
in went through everybody like they like Boosy and Webby.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
So so you had a big shirts from.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
School twenty sixteen. Oh yeah, they was whipping and that problem.
He just said the songs I was popping that era. Literally, Yeah,
you a jerk and ship. I need to w one time.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
That's why.
Speaker 4 (33:25):
You're on some who shit though, what you think y'all
need to make that next week? Like this year, like
to enter the playoffs, like what you think you'll are
missing the piece you feel like or it's just the chemistry.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
I feel like we got everything we need, you know,
we gotta we got a new coach. Coach, he's got
to stay away from injuries.
Speaker 4 (33:42):
Man. Yes, that's all it is for with us, That's
all this.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
I fuck with your new coach, Charlesty.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
He was with me in Atlanta and Milwaukee, but I
was winning with a young Atlanta when he just came
from buck Nell.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
He was fresh. He's a lot of energy, cool dude.
I rock with him. I think he's gonna be great
for y'all this year.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Super super super smart when it comes to this basketball
schemes and everything like that.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
So I'm excited for y'all.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
So I think I had Charlotte being one of my
surprise teams because of Charles. But I'm excited to see
you in a new dynamic. Like obviously not to talk
about people money, we don't do that out here. But
you know you're good five when you got what you need.
You know what I'm saying, everythanks, probably got a new
(34:29):
crib on the way all that I feel, Yeah, go ahead.
So now you're in that stage where you you kind
of a veteran and now it's time to win. You know,
first when you get the lea want to get that money,
blah blah blah. But now you got it, it's time
to win. How you feel about Charles and what he's
bringing to the table, how y'all schemes, how the preseasons going, everything,
(34:53):
how you feel about it.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
That's perfect. I mean, Charlie a defensive money. He a
defensive mining coach, and that's exactly what we need, you know, Charlie.
I feel like we was dead not dead last, but
twenty nine damn there, dead last and deep inst and
so yeah, we get that up. I feel like we're
in the middle of the pack and then plus our
offense getting better us turn the ball over a little
bit less and then Mellow coming back.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
You know, I feel like that that push us over
the edge.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
But for me on the on the money thing, I
feel like if a show changes your mindset, for shure,
you you for show going to like just anything to
win any role they want you to play.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Well.
Speaker 5 (35:30):
In my case, you know, because we got two young killers,
we got Mellow, we got b Neal. So for me,
I'm not saying I'm taking a back seat, But at
the same time, I know my role with the team,
and certain niggas they don't they don't they don't get
that rush. But I'm at the point in my career
I'm trying to take it to the playoffs. I still
make it to the playoffs yet, Yeah, I don't know.
It's different for show and some people when they get money,
(35:51):
they they just stopped playing all together. You know, they
get satisfied, don't He was cold, but I was that
was that was he was cold.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
But niggas for that we're trying to make was after
the first bag, We're trying second back.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
I was like, all right, this is your ten, Like okay, yeah, no,
Kim will get the first back.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
He was still trying to play.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
He was still crow Kim on the stand.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
I love kimber Kimble was playing hard. He was snatched
back and knee to the ground. Fade away, step back.
You got right. I don't know what he got no
work for he got one.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
He's all right now you listen. He got the one fifty.
He's up a look, J go ahead of ther thing,
J C, J B go crazy. But you know what
I mean, Bro, You you was able to win though
a lot, you know, since you was in the league.
(36:55):
So Bro trying to be trying to tap into that.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
You know what I'm saying. But he's still he just
this is after his rookie year. He hold at you nothing.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
He's still young, you know, got a couple of years
and then he get to that twenty nine thirty. It's
time to reup. So you in that stage where you
gotta win. You want to win.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
For the rest of your career. That long ngevity so.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
And for showing the city like Charlotte, that got a
great fan base like that. Already our game is already
super exciting. Y'all get to the playoffs, that's gonna really
be up the city already with y'all heavy, for sure.
Speaker 5 (37:23):

you know, I watched the d Way when he when
he went up against the Dude and Charlotte and all
that ship, and i've seen them with even like with
