Brendan Haywood

You know I'm still good with the Dallas fan base.

Are you trying to turn the Dallas fan base against me?

No, not at all.

Not at all, Brendan.

I think that I'm just wondering, it's not just Dallas, and even New York, they paid him $100 million, which was viewed as an overpay at that point.

What do you think people missed about him back in 2022 when he was a free agent?

I don't think it's what they missed.

I think it's when you look at Jalen Brunson, he's so unassuming.

You look at him, you're like, he's not the fastest.

He's not the quickest.

He doesn't look like overly muscular.

He doesn't jump out of the gym.

And so when people see him, he just doesn't look like a great NBA athlete.

But what they missed was the skill set, three level score,

the ability to not play up or down.

Like, if you ever watch Jalen Brunson, you can't tell if he's got 30 or if he's got three.

He's here with it.

I'm right here all the time.

That's key.

And then the thing that I think people really missed, even though he's only maybe, what, 6'2",
