I'm super glad and honored to be a part of it and we'll see where this goes, where this grows.

Yeah, I know that's your guy. You know, Steve, I sometimes, you know, go back and think a little bit. What if? I think there were a couple of years there where some championships were for the taking. You know, we're starting in 05, maybe 06, 07. You know, obviously the Spurs were great. And then, you know, and... When Powell went to Lakers, obviously, then they took over.

Before that, KG and Paul Pierce went to Boston. KG and Ray Allen joined Paul Pierce. So that would have been tough squads to beat. But right before then, I think there were some years where it would have been possible. But, hey, you know, you just never know. I think at the end of the day, us... You know, separating was probably also good for our careers.

We both had to take on more responsibility and we probably grew in ways that we might have not grown together because of the responsibility we had to take without each other. You know, that Phoenix team was just perfect for him, for his skill set, for the speed he played the game at, and, you know, the athleticism around him was just perfect. And so, I don't know. I don't know.

Like I said, there were some few years where... Oh, stop it, Dirk. Stop it with I don't know. Stop it. Dirk, I'm so tired. I'm so tired of this.

I'm sorry to yell at you. Why am I yelling at you? No, no, no, it was good. I needed it to wake up. But no, we had a great squad and we loved playing with each other and we had great chemistry. And so would that have translated? Would we have stayed healthy together? I mean, who knows? There's a thousand questions, but I think we would have had a good shot.
