Yeah.
His team just rode with him.
you you like the you think you could play in the game right now though uh like today no like if you had your talent in your peak like oh i think so yeah i think it all transfers i think i was a player who did i didn't i wasn't really good at uh one particular thing i was decent in a whole bunch of things so i definitely think it would have transferred i would have figured it out yeah i always wonder because people compare errors right now it's just such a different game than when you played
Yeah, a lot faster.
I think I definitely would have thrived in the one-on-one system and shooting the threes and getting to the foul line and stuff like that.
But yeah, I think it would definitely have been fun to play in this era because it's all offense, really.
Did you see it turning into the way it is now?
Did you see that while you were playing at all?
I wouldn't say I saw it, but I saw Golden State was coming up at that time.
They were really one of the only teams that were just run and done.
Everyone tried to kind of copy what they did, but every team is not built like that.
So it was definitely fun to be able to kind of see that era kind of start and transcend.
yeah and you played with stuff right young stuff yeah yeah young stuff yeah no one would ever thought that he would be you know this big of a player superstar right changed the game like he did but you saw the work ethic you saw the tenacity the the will to be great and stuff like that that's what I hear even from his former teammates are like they had no idea yeah yeah I mean it just happens man he just it just happens he has he's had a lot of ups and downs too so you know it comes with the territory just for anybody so it's just a part of his story yeah
Yeah, given up and quit and all that kind of stuff.
But he stuck with it and got healthy.
And now he's one of the greatest players ever.
Crazy.
You think Golden State will get another one while he's there?
No, I don't think so.
Oh, I might piss him off.
