Of the season and make playoff push again in the front James boy the athletic TI I believe this year can actually celebrate your birthday I can so can you describe how much your life has changed from four years ago to now six-year-old TI yeah uh I mean my last

Time was my birthday uh you I was in college you know broke my wrist never thought I would be here knew that at that time once my wrist was broken that you know I was going to go to the NBA but never thought I’d have the success

I’m having so uh you know as you sit back and reflect it’s really special and uh you know I don’t take this life for granted and yeah it’s a dream come true for me DUS over here T just take us through the game in general obviously go

Five to five from three to start just where we looking before out of the beginning and just how good it feeli to get those first couple to go in and were you just kind of at that point just trying to shoot until you find out how

Far you can go before you yeah I was just going to keep shooting until I missed um but I think just having fun playing basketball uh I was I didn’t know how many I was going to play didn’t on my leged field but I felt good today

Even after the one leg dunk so uh that’s positive for me I mean obviously it wasn’t high intensity at all but uh it feels good that I I felt good and uh hopefully I can continue that moving forward next question over here in thank you teres um earlier T LeBron was saying

That when he was young and he had to be the phase of a franchise that was a lot of pressure for him and he felt very stressed in a weekend where all the attention is on your franchise and you are the face of that franchise you seem

To to be dealing with it very well how have times changed and how are you adapting to being the pH of this franchise and putting on a show today for your hometown yeah I mean I mean I think I think I’ve handled it well but I think just as athletes as professional

Athletes in general any other questions here for tyres done all right still talking okay uh I’ll answer your question my bad I don’t know what’s going on up here but to answer your question I think as professional athletes we’re human beings at the end of the day you know what I

Mean so uh I think what you put off surface level is different than you know we’re all humans we all have emotions and good days and bad days but I think that you know the the reason I’ve had success leading my franchise is just from the people around me and uh the

Trust that’s put in me it’s a big responsibility for me but I’m completely understanding of that and uh yeah just trying to do a good job with it
