“It does. You know, if it's two minutes in the fourth quarter and they call a play, it's like he's going right there. A lot of people Look at LeBron and be like, oh my God, you know, these were the discussions we were having every day. LeBron James, Shane Badier, Ray Allen, Dwayne Wade, Rashard Lewis, myself, we're talking about”

“You know, like I say, you would be surprised how much success you have as a defender. If you take the best move away. Every day I watch film, whether it's the team or the player and be like, okay, take away that for him. He goes right every single time. He's got to go left today. And if he scores 30 points going left, hey, I'm going to tip my hat to him. But percentage, that's where we would mess with the data. We would play with the numbers. We twist the numbers a little bit. Team-wise and individual wise, you develop a repetition for knowing the team's plays. That's the...”

“You watch more film than anybody I know. Because, you know, film is more of a thing, a football term. So it's kind of like the quarterback in football. They have to watch a tremendous amount of film because they have to, it's really anticipation. They have to anticipate. They have to look Where they're looking and say, okay, this is what they're doing. If you watch enough film, you'll pick up on people's tendencies and you know what they're about to do before they do it because he's lean and a little those subconscious things that you pick up.”

“For sure. Absolutely. And what starts happening Is not that it happens on tap, but you can start anticipating what's going to happen on the cord. So things will just come to you and be like, I'm going to run over here because I'm going to be wide open or I'm going to crash the boards because I'm going to get a dunk. And it happens. Yo, that shit is great. You know, it's crazy. But, you know, the more it just becomes a part of you, the more that you... Watch it, and I was having those second guesses and doubts and stuff the other week. I was talking with my buddy and I said, man, I should have, I could have done more, man. He said, okay, stop.”

“So I watched a tremendous amount of film on him in particular. But what happened in our losing effort, but what happened was you start seeing, like you're saying, you start seeing other things. So what I started doing was I started compartmentalizing the film. And I would say, okay, I'm going to watch what Atlanta, or I'm going to watch what the Lakers are doing on offense. It became this thing of, okay, I've got my offensive system down. I know my game. I will watch film on the other team. I just want to get inside the mind of the other team. I want to know all their plays. I want to know their best players' best moves so we can take all those things away. So that's what it became. I would study to take the top two high percentage things away from a team or person.”

“Mm-hmm. Pretty much usually the night before looking at all the mistakes. And then I develop the habit of going home and dissecting other players. So in particular was Dirk Novisky, three-point shooter, seven feet. Late 90s, early 2000s. This is when it was, you know, he was shooting threes back when it was very taboo, I guess, for a big to be doing all that stuff. But he revolutionized the game in that aspect. We lost against them in the 2011 finals. Terrible, terrible tragedy, right? But one thing inspired me to do, he did these certain particular moves within the system that you couldn't stop it. And I had to figure out what it was he was doing.”

“No, not always. Like I said, highlight type. It started off as highlight types and you just want to see yourself doing good, but then you get to a point to where you're looking for the inconsistencies. Or if there was a game, certain particular game that you were unsuccessful, I'm looking at the whole game to see what exactly, why what happened, what I can do to get better, what is this team doing? They might have had some success against me defending me. So one of the things I would look for, I would look It's so hard to describe, but I would look for everything all at once. You get to the point where you're looking for everything, but the main, main, main things were defense and offense, my positioning on offense, I would always look at my teammates' characteristics, seeing what they're doing, see their what the scouting report on them is. They might do a certain particular move every single time in this play. And you have to watch film to know that it would help build.”

“Oh, yeah. Biting myself all this time. Like, oh, okay. Yeah, because a lot of people, they get that and they think something's wrong with them. Or they think something's wrong with the situation or they'll pull out say hey i always kind of think of one of my favorite books was uh blink By Gladwell, and just talking about the gut decision. Trust in your gut, then we talk ourselves out of it. We knew the answer when we talk ourselves out. Talking yourself out of it, that's a part of it, it's gonna happen, but you know, just stay with it, stay with what you said you were gonna do, what you're meant to do. And sometimes the self-doubt comes, you just got to be like, hold on, I'm working now, and it's okay to dismiss that voice. Yeah.”

“Yeah, there's those points. You get to those points, but I had gotten used to that by then. And, you know, for whoever's listening, sometimes it's just going to be like that. You're supposed to feel it, right? You're supposed to, it is a major leap of faith. And if you're making that leap of faith, yeah, there will be some questions. But I always, that was part of my mental training. Like, yeah, they're just questions. That's okay. Let's just keep going forward. Logically, it makes sense. It sound. And then, yeah, when the emotions come in and... Yeah, you get those feelings like, I don't know if I can do this. And we came together in such a way to where it was explosive and pretty infamous.”

“About what to do. And older gentlemen as well. And the thing that I kept hearing was that you want to play on the stage, man. It's about going forward. It's about competing for a championship. You want to play on that stage. That's the phrase that stuck with me. And I had an opportunity to play with two other great players. And we had known each other since we were teenagers. I've been knowing Brian since we were 16, 17 years old. I knew Dwayne since we were 19, 20 years old. And it just fit. And it was a possibility to be like my heroes. I told you I idolized Jordan and Kobe and it was right there to be able, the calling happened. And I wanted to play on that stage that I was talking about. I was telling you I was a little kid, I was watching Michael Jordan. That was like, I distinctly remember. And even, you know.”

“That was the atmosphere that was coming. And I knew that was coming. And I had tried everything. I tried everything in Toronto. I tried to recruit. I tried to push myself, push my team. And, you know, we weren't even scratching the surface. And one of the tough things dealing with it is seeing the early success of my peers. I wanted to win. I've always wanted to win. And I've always wanted to put in the work to be able to do that and compete and hopefully gain glory in that way. I talked to a lot of older players.”

“Yeah, you know, it was a tough decision. I loved Toronto and Toronto loved me. And it was great just to be able to compete and put a city or a country on your back and just hope for the best and just go out there and work hard every day. And I just felt like a pillar of the community. I wanted to do it so bad for Toronto. You eventually get to a point in your career where you have to make a choice. And I went to, you know, I talked to many people. It was a dilemma. I didn't know what to do. And if you're familiar with popular culture, or maybe not that year in 2010, there was like the first mega free agent. Everybody who was free agents, it was about eight or nine free agents. That's like, okay, they're the best eight or nine guys in the world. Right now, they're ready to go. Things can and will dramatically change.”

“You just wanted to go straight. And you can get super deep into a trajectory and all that stuff, but that's when you see it's good to get into the fundamentals of. Where the ball is supposed to go and how you're supposed to hold it. But one of the things that we always do is just start with one hand shooting. I don't know if they had you doing that. Right under the basket all day. A lot of repetitions in that build that muscle memory, and then you can start stepping back as you get better.”

“Pretty good too, but getting those fundamentals of the shooting motion, the arm. Snapping your wrist, following through, balance, all these different fundamentals that you learn and what goes into a great shooter going and seeking that advice, learning from other shooters, always kind of taking in information, but relying on my own information. I think you have to have a good foundation in what you've done already by yourself, even if it's in the weeds or in the dark. And then you have hopefully someone that can refine what you already have or say something to you to say, hey man, take a step back. You can shoot threes. And then I started shooting threes. And then as I became more consistent, I found more success. And it's funny to watch the game now because I'm like, man, I could still be playing, you know, 37. I saw myself playing into my, you know, 37, 38. And I started practicing more threes because I saw where the game was going. I said, okay, yeah, their shooting was more.”

“That was my sacrifice in particular with that team so that LeBron and D could penetrate and get into the paint and do what they're best in the world at doing. As we continue to play, I had Coachman, me and Shane Badier, we would talk all the time about it. But then I had to, you know, have discussions with coaches as well. And somebody said something one day. Said, hey, man, just take a step back. Take one step back. Shoot the same shot, but just take a step back because I was always an avid worker on my jump shot. I was pretty good. I was lethal from mid-range. That was my thing. I always worked on it and worked on it. So it's the hundreds of thousands or millions of reps that I have shooting the ball. I know I have a touch anyway. It was just extending the range. So it's kind of one of those things that if you're good short range and mid range, hell, you practice your long range.”

“I didn't start shooting threes consistently until about my third year in Miami, second or third year in Miami. I shot them in Toronto a little bit, but like I said, it still wasn't, we were talking about the game earlier. It wasn't that widely accepted in the game. Big men shooting threes, handful of them. Now you have a handful that don't. We got to Miami and, you know, my position or my responsibilities changed. So I wasn't getting the ball closer to the basket anymore. That was my job in Toronto, to get the ball as close to the basket as possible. That's where we function. I was pretty good at it. And then the team would go from there and we would distribute and kind of base our game off of, I guess, my success or lack of success down low. I was telling you earlier that in Miami I had to get out the way.”

“If you admire that person, remember that there is a human element. That's a human. They probably going through it, or maybe not, or just whatever comes with life, they're dealing with it. And the tremendous amount of work and focus that it takes to be able to do that, you know, to be able to say, hey, I need to put this to the side to be able to perform. It's happened many times in my career. You know, you go to funerals. You have things you have to fight through. And then you have to play and you're still expected to win, you know? So just remembering those things, just remembering that when you're watching your favorite player or your favorite author or favorite engineer, whatever that is, the tremendous amount of work and dedication that it takes to get to that level. That's what I would like people to really remember and understand.”

“So if you do these things and lead by example, never given up, never quitting, playing hard, these are the things that could be infectious. You don't have to be the guy given the win one for the giver speech. You can go out there and you can be yourself. And that was so comforting to me. I remember that conversation we were having in this office. I said, wow, okay. That gave me so much more confidence because I could be myself. Because on the court, I'm going to yell and scream and do all that stuff all day. I'm not I wasn't always the player to always talk during the game at that age. But if it's getting hype and screaming and yelling, basketball was always my release to do that. It was comforting to know I could be myself and still bring the leadership qualities. To that team And you know, that always stuck with me.”

And we always hear the thing lead by example, right? You hear that all the time. But what does that even mean, right? And he told me, he explained it to me. He said, you know, you. Can lead by putting your work in, being on time, being dressed and ready to go when it's time to practice, staying after practice, your teammates are watching you all the time.”
