Say m uh D ly what uh buckets go get her yes how involves you this collaboration with youro were you in terms of this out for to have Diana Kevin involved back yeah um I mean I wanted to make sure you know a lot of people that inspired me uh

Were a part of this and you know those are obviously two Staples there being a staple in the Phoenix community and you know the greatest of all time of the W NBA in my opinion and Shan Mar Kevin Durant like you know I set a line in the

Spot that you know it’s not just my shoe it’s everybody’s shoe and I drew inspiration from everybody all walks of of my life and you know I just want everybody to be part of it last from we steper um I went step I was asked that earlier

But Michael J what’s one TV show you would watch the that’s a good question onour hey if you could find your bb if you get to find your bball for one song or album um say Watch the Throne Kan and H together I got one more for you you can

Pick any act that’s playing a movie you you have to you have to Pi something you choose longevity where would you be on vacation right now if you weren’t W here Japan and what are your thoughts on the 65 game uh that’s a good question um you

Know it’s a tough situation obviously we see what happen to Jo um you want you want to see you know the best product out there at all times that’s the point of the leag but you know we want to keep people safe at the same time and you know it definitely

Puts people at risk um but it is what it is people want to see the play Play De what is mean to you to also have this Kentucky representation you know you with a lot of guys how many of us is it six seven seven should be eight gar spear too

Um you know it’s you know it just speaks for itself I know Cal is telling his team right now you know you guys see what it takes you know everybody’s walked that through Lexington and and made it work so you know it’s a players first organization um they want to see

You win they want to see you succeed and they want you out in one year talking about your shoe again how much of a priority was you to make on all day shoe something they on PT so look fly off yeah I mean that that’s where we

Started um to have a classic silhouette you know just learning the history of Nike I feel like you know they had it right all along when they first started making shoes so I feel like a lot of people have tried to you know be the on

On court off Court CL it just hasn’t translated because all the performance that they try to put on the outside of the Sho is you I feel like people just mobbing around in Air Forces and dunks and just a classic silhouette so I wanted to be resembl that the closest it

What’s the most ridiculous basketball scene in basketball scene yeah most ridiculous one the whole winning time look if you could add one Ru to the NBA what would it be what was the question if you could add one rule to the NBA what would it be

Um no back to BS right and how does this affect LeBron’s Legacy that sounds like a bot comment excluding exing you guys the best this year oh that’s a tough question um I mean it goes in Spurs it goes in ways Minnesota’s playing great um the Clippers are playing great Boston’s playing great

Um there’s like there’s a lot of good teams a lot of talented teams I think it’s about peeking at the right time and making sure your game is right at the right time what do you get out of an Allstar experience de what are your thoughts

About this change in the format back to the east west I love it I think it it should have been that way I think next we should let people wear their own jerseys in the game and go back to the Christmas jersey games dein having Latino grou yourself how important has

That been for you throughout your career especially living in Phoenix yeah uh I mean it’s embedded in me it’s in my blood and you know Landing in a place like Phoenix was a a perfect set for me so so you know just getting more in touch with the culture every day that I

Can yes sir you got to let I thought we was doing a whole sit down interview no we going to do that we got one question right now you got to let go on one movie series Bad Boy a rush hour which one you

Got take away the ooh I got to take it away yeah what you do a fist talker def oh man I just roed for shower too the other day watching right now I also FR Tucker um bad boys got to go oh wow that’s tough don’t do that

To many your relationship with Kevin had you to inflict what do you feel like the reason you to inflict your uh I mean we have the same likes in life um I mean we’re Hoops Hoops junkies um and that’s where started and you know now we spend

A lot more time together man we just you know we like to kick it chill talk basketball and play video gam so did you hear I did bars yeah de real quick I’ve been I’ve been getting a lot of crazy answers how many 10-year-olds would it take to beat

You in a game of pickup ball it’s not an amount the no amount I Joker just said one it might take one if it’s the right one he’s a humble guy you wouldn’t like 30 couldn’t beat you 50 it’s one basketball I know but how you

Going to stop 30 bodies even if they’re 10-year-old N Easy they won’t get the ball I love that and then one more who’s the one guy in NBA history that you wish you could have been teammates with at one point um johy bips good I haven’t heard that one watch

Joh right there uh Big Shot vs car you do where you need to go love that Deon would you want to be involved in a St versus Sabrina type of context in future All-Star games would I be would would you would you want to be involved in

This type of contest against a WNBA player um sure which one which or which player what’s your first memory what’s your first memor that’s a tough question man ining the Sonic J um I mean I watched him at Texas well I watch him in high school said and I’ve

Been following him my whole entire life I can’t remember a certain moment my fair because he said that your second year when he started okay we might we might end up hear see that in you that ear it was important you know that was my thing going into the league you know

I wanted to gain respect from the Legends um and the guys that I respected the most so you every time I got to compete with with some of the best you know I had to give it a little extra extra physicality extra push just to let

Them know you know I belong here and I’m here to stay says a lot of the same things they here in Indianapolis give me your thoughts on his game and maybe his career he’s doing it you know I’m a fan um and I think he caught a lot of people

Off guard but I’ve been watching him since he was in sack and competing against him he just keeps getting better and better um his flow for the game is unbelievable and their style of play man it’s around him he’s the system outside of your own team you a VI

Are on from right then for MVP uh I mean it was Joel I don’t know now is it uh Yas Luca Shay I think is that the three is that the is that the race de who do you want to be teammates with in Team USA this

Summer that wasn’t part of the Tokyo team that won Gold uh Lebron Stephen Curry um yeah Devon what is your favorite saying your favorite s that’s tough I’m not sure it’s a good question I’ll think about it who do you think is the top five most stylish guys in the

League you you could include yourself Russ Shay cor everybody has their own stuff you look at your career at your had relationship you Chris Paul relationship you Kev relationship how would that help your career being around those type of Mind m i mean those guys are the blueprint you know they’ve done this

Already and crazy part is they’re they’re still hungry and they’re still doing it that’s the common theme amongst them all um I try to chop it up with them and talk history but you can tell they’re still in the moment they have realize with done and the marks that

They put on this game so you know they done did that’s forever that you know it’s going to be here when we’re all so you know those those are the guys what those conversations like you and Kevin on y like like having a play or in

Between a time out I mean what are y’all exactly trying to get just motivating each other uh challenging each other um I mean he gives me the the ultimate confidence to go out there and do what I got to do and you know no matter when

Lose or Draw you know I feel like I got somebody behind me you know that wants me to succeed if you can pick one song to be played on your proof Mak take forever what song are you probably drive slow what are the thoughts what are your thoughts before lab what are ideal

Circumstances 80 or harder it was harder to get 70 back in my day man now everybody get just it’s crazy man people are scoring the ball at a high level the talents out of all time high and you know the evolution of the game people just keep getting better and

Better 89 yeah hundreds possibly H TW what do you mean tweaking seem like there’s some discussion about it no people I mean people are just getting better though like even if you change the rule the players are just going to get better it’s the evolution

Of the game you know so it’s not people aren’t trying to play defense is the style of play like people that are all T High doing things that you know certain highlights that just happened every game would have been stuff that went viral and live forever back in the day so the

Talent just whole another level your P tonight my P tonight yeah the winner of what I don’t to losing either of brother or St I suppose you’re aware of the efforts that the league is trying to make in order to expand its borders and give more opportunity across the world what

Do you think about the new NBA G League team in Mexico City the Capitan have had a lot of players get calls to the NBA um what was the question expansion yeah the expansion and the Mexico Mexico City team the NBA mean we played a few

Games games down in Mexico and it was always a good time and good turnout high elevation down there though I was breathing hard through my lungs but that’s what the game’s about man this isn’t a game just for America man this is a global game and you know basketball

Without Borders is is important everybody’s included you see the talent all around the world just keeps getting better and better and everybody should have a chance D if you have to pick something from LeBron’s game what would you think and why I was already asked that question the next big event in
