But I'm talking about when I was little.

When I was in high school, I was little.

I don't know, probably about 5'9".

Oh, I mean, six foot's short for the NBA.

Right, right, right.

But Isaiah Thomas made it six feet, 6'1", 6'2".

Good for the NBA.

Yeah.

You know, but yeah, I mean, you know, you coming up through the through Chicago, hardcore Chicago, you know, and I just took it as constructive criticism.

Some people take it as criticism, like they I can't I can't take the criticism anymore.

And I've seen people crumble and stop, you know, stop playing in the parks, go to different parks and and confidence is just gone.

I just took it as constructive criticism.

I came out each and every day and knew I was one of the best players out there, and I played like it each and every time I went out there.

And, you know, it bothered me when I had a subpar day, and when I had a good day, it still bothered me because I knew I could have had a better day.

So, yeah, you know, it's just –

how you grew up, how you believe in yourself, how much confidence you got.

And you go out there and you just – and you learn.

You know, you learn from experience.

You learn the ups and you learn the downs.

You learn the good and the bad.
