(01:50):
of your interviews to improve each time? Or hasn't been
a natural progression to get better each time I go
back and watch shows. Obviously, it's not the study we
did in basketball. It's not that kind of studies. We
like the free down, go off to fly and make
it organic. What up, y'all? We all here in Atlanta
just had some great shows that we're gonna take some
time and answer a few fan questions. So Jack, let's
get this started at top end dot Jared. How much

(02:11):
time do players and teammates really spin together outside outside
of the locker room? Y'all got clicks like school Me
and Jack. When we played together, we would go from
practice to the house either his house my house, smoke, chill,
grabs the food, and go out. Some people are like that.
Some people some teammates you never see. So I just
think every situation is different. Yeah, I think every team

(02:33):
I've been on. While our team was like brothers from
Golden State to Indiana, you know, to Charlotte, I hung
out with my teammates. I hung out with my brothers,
and I was one of those guys that I made
sure that I didn't hang out with our people outside
of my team, you know what I mean. So some
teams do it like you say, some teams dope, But
the teams that win, they hang together. Next up already

(02:54):
Mike Fly thirty five, who was the most impactful coach
basketball or in life or LifeWise. Uh. For me, I
learned a lot from Greg Papovich. Even though he screwed
me at the end of my career, I still respect
him and UH hold him at high regard because he
taught me how to be a professional. But my favorite
coach was Don Nelson. No other coach believed to me
like Don Nelson. I got one of the highest compliments

(03:16):
you can get from the NBA coach to winning this
coach of all time. They asked him if, uh, how
would he want to start in five? He say, wish
you would have could have five Stephen Jackson's That's the
ultimate compliment to me. So Don Nelson is my guy
and the only coach to make me a cap. Yeah.
Like Don Nelson, I learned a lot from Don Nelson.
I learned a lot from Phil Jackson. I learned a
lot from Steve Kurr, even though I didn't have Steve
Kurr for a long time. I just really liked his
approach and and and and his attention to detail, but

(03:39):
then also allowing people to be themselves within the system.
So those are my couple of coaches I learned a
lot from. Next fan question at Jay Wrench Game seven
NBA Finals. We believe Warriors versus bad Boys Pistons? Who
wins in the fight? L O L the bad boys
nelse to do with your T J Ranch, nothing else

(04:02):
to do with your sign um who in the game
the bad boy Pistons is A and them and then
Lane Beer And it would have been fun to fight
LANB Beer. I'm not even gonna lie to you, it
would have been fun to fight LANB Beer. I mean,
we're gonna we're gonna pick ourselves. Of course, then we
go pick ourselves. But that's all I O G S.
That's all the hall of famers who we looked up to,
who paved the way from us. Jay dot White Underscore fifteen.

(04:23):
Do y'all watch tapes of your interviews to improve each time?
Or hasn't been a natural progression to get better each time? Question?
I go back and watch shows sometime to partigue myself,
not as much as I should, because we know we
we we do a good job and we understand, you know,
what we have to do. Each day. Each show is different.
So I do watch shows, but I don't go back

(04:45):
to contaking myself. We like the priest style and go
off to fly and make it organic. So no, um, yeah,
And to answer that, I mean, I I'll I'll watch
every once in a while, um to kind of just
see more, to just see what the guests said. And
because we do so many shows, you kind of forget sometimes,
but you are there are little notes you can take. Obviously,
it's not the study we did in basketball when we

(05:07):
had to study our opponent daily. It's not that kind
of study. So obviously you want to continue to improve,
and you know there's things we do to help each
other out with that. And then you know, also we
could do go back a little bit and you know,
kind of check ourselves out. Next fan question, Chris underscore
bro one. When you first started thinking seriously about retirement,
who was the first person you talked to about the family, teammate, coach, agent,

(05:29):
et cetera. And what was and what and why that person?
Also what did they say? My retirement was out of
the blue? Um. I had just signed a three year
contract UM the year before and just felt like I
was ready for what was next. Then I hadn't got
a chance to see my kids as much as I
wanted to, So I was just fifteen years later. I

(05:51):
was just ready for the next step in life, so
I didn't really tell anyone, you know, I kept it quiet.
I did a little announcement on Instagram once I knew
it was time, and I haven't looked back since. I
didn't consult with nobody. But my knees and my shoulders,
in my back and my feet and all the other
things that that that I used to run up and
down the court. I didn't need no approof from nobody.

(06:12):
My body told me it was time, and uh that's
we made a decision together, me and my body, and
need no approof from nobody else. Dan's Underscore thirty five.
Does the Alex Cruiser getting busted for we change the
potential contract numbers in any way? It shouldn't. We just
legal and then they don't get tested. But in the
NBA anyway, I don't think. I don't even think he
got called, but we I think he got called with

(06:33):
a grinder, So uh, free out of CRUSO. We don't
want to hear nothing about this. We don't want the
media to make it bigger and mess up this man
contract because it's stupid. We just legal damn there everywhere.
But you're dumb ask cops keep arresting people just to
get your quota. Stop a free cruso man. Yeah, no,
I agree, it was bullshit. And uh, he had a
great season. He's had a great two past season. So

(06:53):
hopefully he gets all the money he deserves it more.
Next fan question Vince Vneer, would you guys have liked
to have all these ree he's doing games when you
were playing. I don't like that it's slows it down,
and I don't like when they have the replay and
they still get it wrong. But I think it's shown
and it's it's important in the playoffs, um, you know
with some with some key calls being reviewed and overturned,

(07:14):
but you know, overall a tough situation. I don't like
anything that messes up the flow of the game. Though. Yeah,
the referees is bad regardless if they review it or not,
so it don't even matter, they're still gonna be bad
with the review. Chase H. Harris, what's the most underrated
city you lived in that you've played for? But, believe
it or not, bro, I didn't like the team, I

(07:36):
didn't like the coach. I adn't like nothing about the organization,
but I love Milwaukee. I changed the name the trill
Walking because me being from the original trio Ville Port Arthur, Texas.
I love Milwaukee. I love the people in Milwaukee, and
I love the city. Believe it or not, trill Walker
is a good place to be, you know I did.
I went too fund of the team, like I said,
but the people that in Milwaukee, I rock with you
out for real? Um, I would say Phoenix. I think

(07:59):
Phoenix is a beautiful city. They have a great organization,
great fan base, and it just gets too hot in
the summer. But hot. But outside of that, man, Phoenix
is a beautiful l a to me. Next fan question
at Bad when the score rubber with Trey Young's current
player I've run with the Hawks, does it seem real
similar to the player's run Allan Obson had with the
Sixes in two thousand one when you lead his team
to the finals. I never thought about that, but uh possibly.

(08:23):
You know, it's always impressive to me when one of
the smallest guys on the floor have the biggest imprint
on a on a game like this. So, um, that's
a good comparison. It could be Tray still writing this story,
you know, obviously came up a little short, but Tray
still writing this story, so we'll see. That's a rap.

(08:44):
I hope you enjoyed. Fan questions, keep sending them, We'll
