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

That's my dogg….Love Tyrese..
Indiana stand up 💪💯
Not sure what was up with the abrupt ending.
Hali should of been MVP? Yeah Dame had 39 pts & 6 assists. But Hali had 32 pts with 6 assists & 7 rebounds. With less shots than Dame and a minute less in playing time.
Tyrese: "Am I done?… I don't know what's going on up here." 😂
Wish Tyrese would have gotten the MVP, but o'well. I'm looking forward to the team getting back to full health together. Build some continuity and get back to winning.
Ive never read so many salty comments…yall all should have voted for Haliburton…it was open voting
Can we just talk about how Malika Andrew basically gave Damian Lillard the MVP with her strange power to vote for these type of things when she’s clearly not knowledgeable 😂
