I knew I wanted to make it to the NBA when I was a kid.
Didn't know I wanted to play- So did a million other kids.
Exactly, exactly.
But once you get there- My son wanted to be one of those guys.
Right.
And, but once you get there also, I didn't know I wanted to be 21 years.
Right.
Because there's been a lot of heartache along that process, but somewhere I can't even point out what year it was.
Obviously there's been a lot of setbacks here and there, but somewhere it was just, this became a mindset.
Yeah.
The mindset.
That not just in sport, but whatever I do.
It's the things that you don't think about, right?
Like you have to fall in love with the, the monotony and going to that service station, whether I want it to or not.
Um,
I had to.
If I wanted a new pair of shoes, my granddad was like, you're going to come work for it.
And it just instills something different into you.
And as a kid, you don't always understand why you're doing these little tedious things, right?
It's almost like that Karate Kid movie where he keeps making him put his jacket up, keeps making him put his jacket up.
