Legend sir you can follow Rick Barry on all social media platforms same handle everywhere you Rick 24 Berry the 24 representing your playing number it hangs up in the rafters of Chase Center and you can follow me Cyrus OES on threads at dog wild Rick great to see
You sir how are you doing a lot to break down on that game but what was your immediate reaction to the Golden State Warriors hanging on it was they were leading from beginning to end I believe it was a 14 nothing start to the game and they finish 11099 how you doing sir
And your reaction well I’m doing great and I’m just happy that you know they’re winning especially winning on the road and I mean obviously that’s quite a change from what they did last season they they were brutal on the road last season um and so they made improve that
And then of course we we thought it was going to be great again because they started off good on the road and then all of a sudden they went the Hell in a hand basket and all those problems started and you had Wiggins struggling and you had clay struggling you had
Greymond getting suspended you had so many things going on it was worse than the soap opera and but they found a way to as they use the O cliche to write the ship you know it was leaning over pretty far it was kind of like the Titanic
There for a while but fortunately they found a way to plug up the hole and uh they’ve salvaged things and they put themselves Back In Contention to become a playoff team which is the most important thing right now is to continue playing at this level uh I certainly
Hope that they can continue uh continue to do that uh you know here’s the thing I think they finally come to the realization that and I’m sure I’m sure that that Steve has had to talk to them okay you have have to understand that we’re trying to win games and your
Personal reputation as a player means nothing right now it’s about this team okay your minutes should be irrelevant whether you play two or 20 minutes you’ve just got to take the same position it reminds me of our team in 75 you know people say what you talking
About it’s 50 years ago whatever hey you know what it’s the same thing this is the same sport things have changed the athletes have gotten bigger and stronger and faster whatever but the sport is still the same the game in its Basics is still the same it’s a team game it’s an
Unselfish play of the part of every player it’s it’s a matter of sacrificing to do what’s best for the team and the Warriors even in the past when they had their other you know other championships their first ones after 40 years they had guys willing to do the sacrifice and I
Always bring up you know Iggy and I bring up Lee they were able these are these are All-Star players who were willing to come off the bench and now we have guys on the war who are seemed to finally accept that role look at the how
Good clay has been doing with coming off the bench wi is accepting it and coming off the bench this is what it’s about you know and then a couple of the young guys are fry getting an opportunity to play I was glad to see Moody get a
Chance the other day had a big game the other day I mean struggled a little bit shooting today I mean he was terrible from three-point range but they still won the game handly see that’s what all that matters it’s not your stats it’s not how well you did individually did
The team win the freaking game and they did on the road they won the game and they didn’t have another one of their players who had been playing pretty good lately wi wigs was not available but they still came out and played convincingly on the road this is what
They need to do it’s uh it’s fun to see I hope it continues and I’m telling you I’ve said this to so many interviews that I do all the time don’t count the Warriors out if I’m a top four playoff team okay going into the playoffs okay
If I’m Denver I mean Denver come on Denver could have eat lost games to the Warriors I mean they they the Warriors are right there stay I mean Steph has a horrible shooting game again they didn’t play well but they were still in the game they fought they had they looked
They were G to blow him out of the freaking Arena but to credit of the defending Champions they came back tied it at halftime had a double digit lead in the third quarter but the Warriors battle back and got it with time left in the game and it was three-point game I
Think they got it down to and you know and then they’re they’re ridiculous turnovers that they do all the time because I say they’re Their Own Worst Enemy if they can control that and continue to you know play some defense holding a team under 100 points in the
NBA today is pretty remarkable the way they’re scoring points these days so they’re showing signs of really good life I really like what I’m seeing I’ve been saying this now ever since you know before the All-Star break that these guys are a team to be reckoned with and
This is another example of a good win against a much improved and a much better Knicks basketball team playing at home so you know terrific win for them it really was and nice to see Steph because wow I when when’s the last time You’ seen stephh Curry go three games shoot
22% three for 11 one for 10 four for 16 now the beauty of it is he does that and they win two of those three games they win two of the three games with Steph Curry shooting 22% and having horrible games that shows you what a team is all
About someone else has to pick up the slack clay had a big game gotting 25 in one of those games this is what it takes to be a championship caliber team to be a team that’s going to be in contention and I really am pleased with what I’m
Seeing yeah I’m I’m 100% with you uh and again the defense showed up tonight as you mentioned this is a league in the modern era where scoring is rampant and the Golden State Warriors defense put the clamps on tonight holding the Knicks to under 100 points 110 to 99 um you
Know I real quick I just want to touch on this because a lot of people in the chat are mentioning it my dog I don’t know what he’s doing right now I’m hearing a lot of noises that always concerns me but um you I want to mention
Real fast because this is going to be all over the news uh during the postgame interview Draymond Green did throw some shade at the the the Warriors post pre and postgame host Bon Hill uh regarding Hill’s comments of Draymond during his suspension I don’t know what those
Comments were but I did want to acknowledge because there’s a lot of people in the chat during a live program uh mentioning that they saw that I saw to I’m sure that’s going to be talked about a lot in upcoming days but uh yeah that was bizarre uh Rick have you ever
Had reporters broadcasters that you took issue with regarding what they said did you ever confront them how did you deal with media members who uh you did not find them producing favorable content uh incorrect content how do you how do you how did you handle that during your play
Well first of all it wasn’t anything like it is today okay we didn’t have the internet we didn’t have ESPN we didn’t have any of that stuff I know but I I I experienced for the first time when I was in college I always remember the one
Writer I remember his name still is was John Kitt that he wrote for Miami News and he he did an interview with me and he asked me one one question like this he said Rick you know when you’re playing and all because I was the leading scorer in the country right and
So Rick you know the crowd’s yelling shoot shoot hey said did you hear the crowd he says of course I hear the crowd I said but you know what when I get the ball I’m looking to try to score you know provided I don’t have a teammate in
A better position then he’s going to get the basketball that’s just the way I was taught how to play the game and so the headline was I he had me done Rick Barry I hear the crowd yell shoot so I shoot I said what the hell I said
John here’s the deal if you’re not going to write what I say and you’re going to take it out of context and change the whole meaning of what I said and everything I’m not talking to you anymore okay that’s a simple way to do it with that guy over there all he had
To do don’t make a big thing out if you’re giving him even more publicity why even give the idiot who’s screwing you up give him more publicity by coming and making you into a big issue that everybody’s going to talk about that guy loves it his name’s being thrown around
Out there and this is what they want they want cont y so the best thing he could have done is just say nothing and just talk I have nothing to say to you and that’s how it was handled he was asked a question Draymond was asked a
Question about uh a Madison Square guard in New York City and it was the most the shortest briefest answer imaginable uh yeah there’s clearly something going on there but I just had to acknowledge it rick uh when we come back um look Andrew Wiggins is out indefinitely uh Steve Kerr is not saying
Much other than Wiggins is a private person and it’s a private matter but what what I do want to talk about is who’s replaced Wiggins in the starting lineup and that’s Moses Moody uh I love this kid I’ve been waiting a long time for him to get his moment and now he’s
Getting it and he’s delivering not in this game he didn’t deliver he was Zero for five from three-point range he’s got to shoot the ball better from three-point range if he’s going to be in the game we needed him to be that should be a two for five game something of that
Nature zero for five isn’t going to cut it you know he had eight points and fortunately you know kaminga is the guy that’s really taking advant vage of the opportunity he’s been getting you know putting up 20 point games left and right doing a nice job I still think he needs
To go and rebound some more I mean rebounding is just a matter of effort and knowing where the ball is going he’s so dang athletic I mean just go release sometimes and go get some rebounds and and and start it here’s I get a rebound
Start it up the floor you don’t have to necessarily throw it to Chris Paul all the time or throw it to Steph or somebody let them take off up the floor take it bring it out then throw it up the floor to somebody you can do that as
A as a small forward that’s I think something that all forward should be doing don’t always count on always having to throw the ball to one guy in a situation because it becomes predictable the last thing you want to be as a basketball team is predictable you know like I know
Sometimes when I played listen Cyrus sometimes when I played against certain team I knew I could run back to a certain spot after offense and my defense my guy is GNA show up there that’s where he’s GNA be all the time he’s not gonna do anything freaking
Different I mean it’s that’s the worst thing possible and that’s the same way well I love it the way the Warriors playing all because I always said said ideally I would want I would want and it’s great you got a guy like the Joker I would want all five of my players able
To pass and create and see the floor and then you can have different people initiating the offense the defense can’t really get into a pattern about anything because they don’t know where somebody’s going to be it could be that’s why Denver’s tough a lot of times what they
Do is they give the ball to the Joker and he’s running stuff I mean and you know he’s come on he gets triple doubles all the time what he have 16 assists against the Warriors or 14 yeah but Rick what you said was interesting so you critique Moses
Moody’s uh shooting tonight which is ballad he’s 045 from Beyond The Arc and when we come back I that’s gonna that leads to an interesting question I I I hope it’s interesting that I’m going to ask you which is how important are stats for certain players because Moses Moody
I thought defensively was fantastic yeah and that’s good that here’s the deal I’ll back come go do your little break and we’ll come back right well well because it’s not just Moody that didn’t really necessarily put up the numbers right that Shine Brandon psky is another player who I thought was great but
Statistically nothing to Rave about so when we come back I’d love to get your perspective on just how important these numbers are if the end result is to win which is what the Warriors did so we’re going to talk about that and so much more and Rick I’m going to involve you
In this uh first ad read because it’s courtesy of eBay motors and um it involves fantasy basketball I’m gonna ask for your help here in just a moment and first up though as I mentioned just a moment ago eBay Motors is our first uh Advertiser for the night

Four of them I’m not that familiar with to be honest with I’m not I’m not broadcasting now so it’s not like I’m following every game and all the teams to be properly prepared to do a broadcast uh so I mean I have fun talking about the Warriors and keeping
Up on various things that are taking place but to start talking about players who are in a lot of respects inconsequential that may help their team out a little bit I mean I that’s not me that’s why you got the guy doing this for you well what do we read a doop
Wreath I’ve honestly never heard of this I like this because of his name doop exactly and but he plays for the forland Trailblazers and Josh Floyd writes that purely speculation but if DeAndre Aiden’s hand injury is serious I didn’t know DeAndre Aiden had a hand injury wath could find himself a starter for

On plus our national shows covering every League finally locked on sports today now available on the free Fire TV channels app and Rick Barry the Hall of Famer the NBA top 50 player top 25 in my humble opinion also has his own program you and I are doing a double header
Tonight right after this if you folks download the miked up app it’s mic apostrophe D up uh you and I host live shows there it’s the Rick Berry show you can submit voice recordings that Rick and I will answer mostly Rick uh for for very good reason and um yeah so come
Join us there Rick Barry you’re available on all social media platforms at Rick 24 Barry the stat sheet tonight for two of the five starters for the Golden State Warriors Brandon psky played 32 minutes in this game led the team in minutes but he was just one of
Six from the field his three-point shot even though he shot 43% in college not falling so far that part of his game um has not matured to the NBA level did have four assists did have three rebounds yet he was a plus 17 in net rating two points for Brandon pky and
Then Moses Moody who you mentioned was oh was didn’t shoot the ball great from Deep was 0 of5 finished the game with eight points however Moses Moody let the team in plus minus so I ask you Rick how important are these stats does it depend on the player your thoughts are well I
Think like anything in life too much of something is no good I mean the analytics and the statistical things that exist today you know they’re nice it’s nice to know that and if you use them judiciously they can be beneficial to you at times but if you them totally
I think you’re out of your freaking mind I mean basically Steve Kerr and his assistants are watching that game and they have they know their players you got to get a feel for what’s going on who to put in you see if somebody’s struggling and you make your decisions
Based on what’s happening in front of you on the court not necessarily on the statistical aspect and so if a guy is doing a good job and you’re you’re defending well as a team and he’s a good part of it an essential part of it even though he’s not making his shots you
Don’t necessarily yank him out of the game now if you were trailing you needed some points you might have to do that you take him out of the game because he’s struggling offensively you got to get some offense and you put somebody else in and that’s the thing about the
Warriors that Steve has the luxury of what Al Adel had for us to go 10 Deep on this team easily because he’s got these players they all have the capability of playing well and situations like this to to his credit I’m sure it was because both of those guys were defensively
Doing a good job and keeping the Knicks under control and even though they then they had two other guys Steph of course finally you know had the big game after the three terrible shooting games and shoots 44% from threes which is more like the Steph Curry that we know and
Love and so and kaminga is playing well also so you you you have a find little balance it’s it’s the chemistry how is it working and this is what happened in the game tonight so you can justify leaving him you know in the game to play the defense while the other guys are
Taking care of the offense for you now had it been them trailing and doing stuff I’m pretty darn sure that he would have tried to get somebody else in there because you got to get some points on the board try to make up the deficit if you’re down double digits so right that
That was you know that was smart on his part to use these guys in the way that they were contributing and that’s the thing when your offense isn’t going well I always remember my my my coach in college who was my father-in-law Bruce hail and a great Pro Player on his own
Always said there there’s going to be eight or 10 games during the course of a long season like that where things don’t offensively you’re not going to be just go you’re going to have a tough time okay because offense is that roller coaster ride okay it’s up and down a l
Lot more so than defense which could be St you know static and should be as a team and so when the start’s not going don’t keep jacking up the tough shots go to the basket get fouled get to the free throw line go get an offensive rebound
Put it in get a fast break opportunity do something there but you got to still be contributing and so if your defense is good and you’re helping double teaming and stopping guys from getting the basket keeping your guy off the boards doing the good little things on
The defensive end of the Court you’re contributing and that’s what Moody and that’s what the podm I call him the podcast uh the PO man the pot the PO guess it’s too easy it’s too hard to pronounce his name like I’m never going to call it’s
Always gianis to me I’m not going to pronounce his last so I mean so seriously so so the podster I mean you know was doing a nice job creating stuff he gets some assist you do what you have to do and and in a way this is what
Chris Paul I think has been doing he another way throw him into the equation another great player who’s gonna be a Hall of Fame player who’s willing to come off the bench play a role on the team I mean my Heavens that’s what this is all about that’s why I’m so happy to
To see this because that’s what the game of basketball should be and that has been the Forte of the Warriors and one of the reasons they won multiple championships over the last decade is because of that attitude that the players have had and the willing to do
What’s necessary to help the team win the warriors were struggling they weren’t doing that finally the realization has sunk in somehow some way they’ve bought into this and understand what they can do and I think it’s showing by their victories recently absolutely sir when we come back uh we
Got to talk about Steph and kaminga in my humble opinion the two best players on this team and they showed that tonight Rick I’d love to get your insights especially on kaminga you and I have been talking about him since his rookie season I’m personally enamored
With the kid no secret there obious it’s a pretty obvious statement based on what I’ve been saying on this show but I’d love to hear your thoughts he had a fantastic night and Steph of course was Steph just what a phenomenal individual and player uh but first let’s give some

First listen everyday for the every dayers we’re back at this tomorrow another postgame show Warriors and Raptors a weird scheduling uh set up by the NBA to have the Warriors say that play the second of a back-to-back across the border uh we’ve heard Fitz Bob Fitz Cheryl talk about this repeatedly on the
Broadcast how difficult of it or not difficult but it’s a nuisance crossing the border dealing with customs and and they’re going to be on an overnight flight so they’re going to be uh probably struggling when it comes to sleep for tomorrow’s game Rick you would know better than me clearly if you want
To add anything to that but um first of all before we get into to Warriors conversations again real fast for folks who want to uh continue joining us tonight after this show the Rick Barry show is available on the mup app just download it um you can even upload voice
Recordings you can upload those during the show we’ll see them show pop up right away and we’ll talk about it uh Stephen Curry had a he he’s back on track he you know he every now and again he goes in these little slumps like every human being does he was eight of
18 from Beyond The Arc 11 of 26 from the field total did have 11 rebounds in this game I think he had seven in one quarter if my if my memory serves correct finished the game with 31 points and then Jonathan kaminga uh again great things happen when Jonathan kaminga
Plays uh 30 minutes for him tonight I love seeing him crack that 30 minute barrier was 12 of 19 from the field 25 points eight rebounds your opinion sir on these two players who are leading the way for the Golden State Warriors well you know I really like them both you
Know that I talked about kaming and saw a lot of good things in him when I saw him when he was a rookie in the summer league and saw some things that I because I hadn’t seen him at all before right and said well he has potential to
Be a really outstanding player if give him the opportunity it’s taken a long time for him to get there um but like I said you going only learn so much sitting and watching you got to play and you have to learn through the experience of being out there on the court does a
Lot of good things he still is a little bit out of control at times but he does attack the basket relentlessly and with a lot of uh enthusiasm and power I wish I could have done the things that he does going to the basket but you know a
Little some little subtle things that I think he could learn that would help make him even a better player and of course he’s just got to get a little more consistent with that three-point shot get himself up if he can get himself up to the 33 35 percentile on a
Regular basis in three-point range then he becomes a real asset for him and if I were him I wouldn’t be satisfied with that I think the goal is to try to go for 40 now that’s shooting but listen he’s got two guys that can work with him
On his shot and I think not too bad to have a couple of guys like clay and Steph on your team to be able to tell hey take a look at my shot I remember us to do that with Jeff M Jeff I’m having problem Jeff look at my shot I’m doing
Something I I don’t know what the hell it is and Jeff watched me and he saw something and it’s just little subtle things like Rick you’re actually the ball is coming off your fingertips as you’re coming down so I had a little movement in my shot and so I I couldn’t
Pick it up he picked it up for me so those are the kind of things things that great Shooters can do for their teammates and I’m sure he’s you know talking to Steph and Clay about that and they’re certainly working with him but yeah I like a lot of the things that he
Does again just a little bit out of control at times get a few more rebounds and work on that three-point shot and uh i’ love to be able to see him and show him how to go ahead and face up without doing everything off the dribble but
That’s something that’s kind of a lost art form it’s like the dinosaurs I want to get back to something you talked about when you’re saying playing uh you know with with them going up to up to up to uh Toronto uh to play against the the Raptors so
Okay please don’t feel sorry for these guys they charted freaking plane okay after the game they get done they get on the plane they’ve got charted they’ve got catered food they’re flying on a jet charted to get over to the place we would go to we would go take our Eight
Dollar a day or whatever the hell we Eight dollar is what we have as a rookie go out try to find a place to get something to eat go to sleep maybe fall asleep by 1 two in the morning if you’re lucky unwinding get up at 600 or 5:30 to
Get in the taxi cab you know you know in New York if you were in New York you get in the cab get you to an to the airport for a commercial flight early in the morning to fly and go through all of that commercially to get there I mean
You know so please these guys are doing it yeah it’s a little tough but so what they’ll be in bed after having a great meal flying on a starter plane okay seriously and get a really nice good night sleep up there and so don’t tell
Me about man this is going to be tough for those guys that’s they have no idea I’m with you I I’m just echoing what bit zald was I’m aund a th% with youer that is you’re absolutely right um and uh I wantan to I’m sorry I gotta I gotta
Get back on track here um you know and the Warriors play the Raptors tomorrow Rick one thing that’s that uh stuck out to me on the staty tonight you know the the one of the strengths of the Warriors this season has been their depth and
Real fast before we get into that too I just want to add the Warriors with their win tonight have leap frogged the Lakers they are now the nine seed in the Western Conference standings they’re they’re technically tied with the Lakers but they’re a game ahead in the loss
Column so that improves their win percentage they’re only two games behind the Kings who have been floundering lately only two and a half games behind the Mavericks and only three games behind the Suns and Pelicans so there’s still a long ways to go I believe 25
Games remaining don’t quote me on that I haven’t done the math um but Rick the the starters tonight even though this team has been solid terms of depth when you look at the box score and and you would it’s not surprising if you watch this game beginning to end every starter
Net rating wise was positive kaminga plus 19 Moody plus 23 Draymond Green plus 19 Steph plus 20 psky plus 17 not a single bench player was in the positive in that rating I personally wish that Gary Payne II got more minutes I’ve been a longtime advocate of Trace Jackson
Davis getting more minutes just because he had size I don’t think he’s a l liability out there your thoughts on the starters far outperforming the bench in tonight’s win well the starters are supposed to outperform the bench right that’s the way it’s supposed to work you know and but that’s the thing
About the Warriors there’s always been a factor remember when a lot of guys left when Durant left and other people I said well now the big thing is is what you got to get your bench because your bench has to be able to help you out when you
Are struggling and you know the bench could certainly do that let’s look really quickly at the bench here so they get 17 21 31 37 points and let’s look at the Knicks 37 points well the Knicks had a couple of guys here had 24 33 so they outscored the other bench
The Knicks so it’s a four-point edge for the Warriors Off the Bench which is a critical element I think when you’re when you’re looking at Stats and stuff here is that your bench has got to like to say hold the fort you know at least
Not lose the lead if if they come in at least you know and sometimes you know if you can increase the lead great or even more even better is if you’re struggling and the bench comes in the bench helps you to go and get back in the game and
Get a lead I mean I’ve always been a big proponent I don’t see it happen that often if the starters are struggling the team is struggling and the bench guys come in and the bench guys play their butts off and they go and they play great and they’re going great going at
The halftime how often do you ever see the coach start the guys that finish the first half and start the starters on the bench I used to do that when I coached I said look at guys where he got the lead because of the way these guys played I’m
Going to give you guys the opportunity to go out there and continue to do what you’re doing and say knowing full well that if they aren’t doing it I get to put my starters back in and so you starters when you get a chance and you
Go back in there you need to do what these guys did in the first half that’s what a team is all about I can’t hear you I’m muting sorry about that we’re gonna continue this party Rick on the mic up app it’s mic apostrophe d space
Up uh just download the app you can literally engage we can play your voice recordings um so the Rick Barry show uh will start immediately after this Rick I love you I think check this how do you like this you see this see my cup see

Wiggins is worthless to team now. Don't need him And it is great that Klay realizes his role now for the 2nd team.
These "Small" Dubs are the #2 Rebounding team in the NBA. So their size isn't hindering them there….
Moody lock down Brunson I mean Brunson was really having a difficult time scoring on him
Rick is real, and NOT giving a pass to any player, and everyone can see the bias by the host on players he likes, and he would talk as if even that player's shxx does not stink.
Kerr is still the worst coach in the NBA.
Take the stats as maybe something to improve on but not despair upon.
Moodys defense was amazing!
WHY, just WHY is Cy always ducking away from the mic? A sneeze or two is natural and understandable, because we are all human. Half the broadcast time he is swerving side to side😂😮
I wonder how much rope Kerr is going to continue to give Saric. He's been struggling for a while now.
So glad Wiggs is out
A professor told us, "Stats are like a bikini, they show a lot but important parts are hidden".
Imagine if Kerr unleash JK and MM during their two seasons. And now this two young guys keep on proving Kerr that they are not a bench warmer this season. Keep going JK and MM, nevermind the people who keep on doubting what you can do both as a player.
What ever happened to Kylen Mills?
Love you Rick! Stay healthy my Hero!
Moody played solid defense today. Happy he’s playing and starting. Been a minute since they held a team to 99 points. The real test is Boston this weekend. If they win and contain Boston they should definitely trade Wiggins in the offseason because he has a lot goin on and plus he had a terrible season this year and last year.
I remember earlier in the season moody, saric, and Steph were the only guys who could hit threes. Moody and saric were almost guaranteed when they took a three it was going down. They’re down a bit now but they’ll get their shots back. Kuminga also had a great three ball that he should be working on getting back up
Great defense by moody.
Good win for The Warriors vs a playoff bound team. The Season is a new for the dubs.
Centerplay is one spot The Warriors have room for improvement.
Insert your commercials post video so legends dont have to sit through commercials.
Time to Bench Podz and give his minutes to GP2 , CP3, Lester, and Moody
The basketball wisdom from Rick Barry is Golden. Let's Go Warriors!!!!!!
Did Rick Barry slide in that Karl Malone is a good guy? And we just let that slide?
That 74-75 team was an Attles master class on how to use every bit of talent they had.
Podz lack of scoring mirrors his lame summer league.
Lesser is a better scorer
I was saying trade cp3 at the deadline, but honestly CP coming in at the end an stabilizing the offense may actually send us deep. Steph is on Mt. Rushmore but at the 6 min mark to 1:30 in clutch min games his can get a little careless. We are still to small. We still need a big. But, with some luck and the right matchup, theres a chancel.
MOODYs D is elite his 7’ 1 Wingspan is showing. Just needs playing time 12-14 a night 5/6 rebounds 1 block 1 steal. 3 assists what’s not to love!
I know nobody wants to draw Dubs in playoffs! 🙀🤧
Pods needs more arch on shot! He is trying to hard just relax let go! Easy for me to say he has to play with Steph and Klay! But love his complete game the way he gets ball in pocket passes!
Kumminga needs to train with Rick this summer!
We need them to win today .
You've been reported several times for irresponsible reporting Thistasteful journalism.
You should be ashamed
Does Rick not want to be an NBA talking head? His knowledge and speaking ability makes it a no brainer, what gives??? The only thing I can think of is that he was thought to be a surly interview during his playing days, but he seems so much more mellow but still energetic, we should be seeing him more.
