Starting point is 00:20:15 You went to You went to Both of those teams To successful Yeah To family Right To ring
Starting point is 00:20:22 Some world's fighters Oh yeah That's crazy. So how was it finally leaving Washington and getting a more stable situation? Oh, yeah. It was good. It was good.
Starting point is 00:20:34 It was refreshing because you see what a real franchise is about. From the way they do breakfast, practice, the owners talk to you different. It's different. I't like i guess because we're losing gil was hurt he wasn't practicing like he wasn't gil gil like yeah yeah turn around gil so he was rehabbing every day trying to find stuff to do so yeah man it was tough so when i got to la playing with like Cole, Cole was different. Cole was like the first person there always on the training table getting treatment or something.
Starting point is 00:21:13 He was just always in the gym, first person there. That's crazy. And speaking of Kobe, man, one of my favorite moments of y'all going back and practice, man. That's one of my favorite clips, man. How was that the battle with like somebody like of that legend? And you from LA too. So the legend was already there. You get to really go at him at a time where y'all wasn't the best. So y'all really got to get y'all shit off.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Man, that was fun because, like, in practice, like, he wouldn't practice. He would just tell us about it. Tell us about us. Like, man, if I plan on seeing you left, you can't go that way. So when he finally got out there, I was like, yeah, this is our time because we all were just talking trash. How am i'm gonna get better practicing with y'all i said damn that's a cold line you said that to me
Starting point is 00:21:56 so when he got out there finally oh yeah yeah it was fun though but i think jeremy lane got like the worst of that like oh jeremy lane got like the worst they was getting yeah it was fun, though. But I think Jeremy Lin got, like, the worst of that. Oh, God. Jeremy Lin got, like, the worst. He was getting, yeah. And it's funny because that could have been your teammate in L.A. Nah, he told me that. He said, in the middle of the game, he said, why you got me out here with this shit? And I said, what?
