And, um, I think it's, that's, that's a problem with the NBA.

The waves are so up and down and it can be really easy to get caught up in it.

And I think I've figured out now how to kind of get out of that.

You know, once I have a great game, um, I never get too high or bad game.

I don't get too low just so I'm not constantly in this fluctuation of, um, highs and lows.

So I've done a good job of being able to stay pretty even keel through it all.

And, um, I struggled with that early on because in my rookie year, I'd have a great game and I feel like I'm on top of the world.

And then,

I'd have a couple of bad games and I feel like I shouldn't even be in the NBA.

So yeah, I've been through both sides of it.

And it is tough for young guys and guys coming into the league to manage.

But I think I've done a better job now of it in terms of not getting too high or too low.

Yeah, no, my friends will definitely keep me humble and they'll definitely bring me back to earth.

And yeah, I've got a really good support system around me of people.

But I think the most important thing is just going back into the facility every day and being around my teammates and coaches.

And the NBA, the great thing about it is there's a new game coming in 24 or 48 hours.

So you can't sit on the past for too long.

You've got to move on to the next game, which is, I think, a blessing in disguise for guys like myself who struggle with that high and low stuff.

So

Um, yeah, I'm, I'm grateful that there is a game coming and I've always felt like this for AFL guys.
