Louis Riddick

Can I get to my space?

These things were drilled over and over and over again to utilize who they have around them, but also to understand this is how I'm going to make my money.

is this skill set that I have developed based on who I am as a player, not anybody else.

And that's the beauty about the game because the game can be played in a lot of different ways.

And I think a lot of times we, in today's world, harp on athleticism, athleticism, athleticism.

At some point, athleticism is great because it's athletes across the board in every sport.

But the ones that understand how to make that connection up here, that's why I think Michael Jordan was such...

This is a phenomenal player because he took the athleticism with the skill set, the mindset of how to play the game.

That's what made him unstoppable, okay?

And the same thing you talked about with, I think, Jalen and SGA and Luka, Jokic, unbelievable.

I mean, unbelievable players because they play the game between the ears.

How does the finals play out?

I like the Knicks and Six.

And the reason why is because, not because the Six, I mean the Knicks beat them 2-1 during the season, it's a matchup thing.

Now listen, OKC has already dealt with, Garden Anthony Edwards already dealt with SGA.

They're going to plug him, send multiple guys at him, force other players like Alex Caruso

Mitchell, if he would have played or to make shots.

So that means Josh Hart, who Wimby probably is going to start on, is going to have to make shots.

But what I love about this New York team, they're big across the board, you know, with Mitchell Robinson inside and Cat outside.

But across their wings with OG and also Mikael Bridges and Josh, they have size.
