That's going to be the skinniest version of him. And I'm like, yeah, we can use this one. Yeah, yeah, this extra burst Luka that can actually dunk and he's a lot faster. That is the Luka we need. So, you know, if he's sitting at about, I can gauge it. He's all of six. Have you seen him in person?
He's all of about 6'9 1⁄2", right? He's a big human being, and he's probably sitting at about 260. If Luka can get down to about 230, 225... I really believe he's going to be MVP next year.
Like I'm, I'm thinking about like when you're talking about two games here, two games at one, one, one, you know, you're just, you know, looking at the back and forth and it's like, like if we were playing just one on one and that's what a series is, is one verse one. Why am I giving you the ball? Like, you have to earn this, right? So I'm not giving up home court advantage until you beat me.
Mm-hmm. Yeah. Like, take it from me, and then we can go down to your hometown, and we got to take it back from you. But, you know, obviously, this is a business, and it has to be, you know, we got to go to your building so your fan base can win some, you know, some, I guess, so you can pay your bills, in a sense. Right, right. If it just comes straight to hoops...
No, it has stopped those fans from mouthing out. Then you're going to have them MMA guys.
Exactly. Um, Now, I kind of like the idea, but, like, I see someone like a Westbrook really using it really early. I think we'll be probably mad that he didn't save it for that one fan.
There's only a few guys that I can see really using it. Isaiah Stewart, pretty sure he will use his – Draymond would use his in like the first quarter of the first game. When you watch Draymond's antics, it's in real time. Yeah. It's like these real times, like he gets hit in the elbow, and then now he wants to overflang, right? I don't see how a fan gets under his skin.
He doesn't get easily moved by fans. That's true. Yeah. Mostly just Westbrook at this point.
He might mix it up. You know, probably. It'll just be some random quiet guy that we don't know of, and he's just sitting there. He's done had enough, and he just points at you, me in the middle. And you're like, oh, shh. Yeah, I wasn't like ready to fight.
I personally don't think they're confident because even game one, you was getting built to ass, right? You end up coming back, but it wasn't, It was a comeback, but it wasn't really. You didn't play very well, right? It looked like you was getting manhandled. You was bad body language from Jokic in the fourth quarter, and then they end up making a comeback. Here, you just got the doors blown off.
I don't know what you take from game two nor one that actually helps you in game three, right? It's the same thing with New York. Like, New York... you were getting beat down the first, like you're down 20 and just sheer, just sheer willness gave you those. So you have, you have something that you can say, Hey, I don't give a fuck what they're up.
We got this going into the garden, which is going to be bananas. Right. Um, I don't see how Denver goes home and they're like, yeah, don't worry. That was just, we stole one guys. Let's just defend our home court. I don't see what speech that, um, men in black can, can really give. Yeah.
Yes. I mean, you know, um, the weather, the women, right. That's it. The, the, the, the atmosphere, the fan base, um, It's it's one of those things where, you know, when you're talking about just West Coast basketball, like when you're talking about like the style of play, Arizona is obviously is West. So, you know, you still are competing with the legacy of UCLA. Right.
You probably get second fiddle, but you're still in Arizona. And then, you know, from there, it's. You know, those guys try to stay close to home as much as possible. So, you know, getting the L.A. kid out of L.A., literally UCLA and USC aren't recruiting him. Then they look outward. So for the most part, you know. After Luke passed, those West Coast kids kind of stopped coming.
So it seems like they're getting back to what they used to be. They recruited my son very hard. He just wanted to stay home. Musclemen who coached me called him every single day. Right. I didn't even know he was they was talking to three in the morning, you know, about basketball, about workout out. Right.
So, you know, you know, Musselman had a hand up on everybody because he actually called him every day. Right. Knowing that, you know, that he's going to reclass. I don't I don't think everybody realized he was going to reclass and be a senior. So most of the guys didn't really recruit him like that. And Musselman was there from the beginning.
I told him, listen, if – well, you know, I was great at cards.
Yeah, you know, don't be an antagonizer. Realize that – Losing money is more important than how much they're losing, right? You know, just the idea of losing money is, you know, it was more of the problem than $1,100. To this day, I don't even know how much he was down to be that mad. Some people say, yeah, I won about $4,000. It was like $4,000 to $6,000 is how much he was down.
And for that team, that's like losing $300,000 because they only played for $20,000 a hand. Right. We're talking about like I was with LeBron and Richie and him. Well, LeBron wasn't playing, but Richie and Mav and him and Larry Hughes, we was playing $500,000 a hand. And I'm on a big contract, and I'm still like, whew, right? Yeah. Yeah.
I was hearing, you know, games that they were playing $1,000 a hand. So that means, you know, everybody puts up, there's four players. The game already started at 4,000. You get one, two, two, one in the boo. You're talking about, you got boo for 4,000. Now it's 8,000 in the pot. Now you got three people who have the ante back up, right? You're looking at 11 grand and you just started a game.
