11 time NBA all star man.

I was sleep then on you because 11 time I was I mean, I was asleep.

But then when you know when you see it and numbers just like 11, he went 11 times.

So the All Star E.

I mean, you think about it when you start looking at people, statistics and numbers and appreciate their career.

But when you see it, it takes on a different meaning.

But, you know, congrats.

Obviously, um, you mentioned the political things.

You mentioned all of that.

But not only from a political standpoint, everything we've gone through in 2020 from the pandemic, just everything we're dealing with.

If the MBA championship in this bubble Chris and because of the pandemic, how would it be viewed this year with the champion?

I mean, you know what, man?

Look, by any means necessary.

That's how it is.

Uh, that was always kind of my focus as an athlete.

It's interesting.

Um, other people have asked me, would it be a aspects by?

I think this is one of the hardest years to win an NBA championship.

You don't aspect you don't have that thing.

That extra thing to really pump you up and get you going is just straight up basketball.

Um, there's no limited people around.

It's a totally different situation.

But, you know, you know as well as I do guys, they give a trophy away.

They put your name in the record books, you know, and it's almost been a year since they got started.

So this has been this will be this'll be the longest journey for any champion.

Um, that's ever been crowned in the in the NBA.

So look, I'll take it.

I take it, you know, if if someone wanted to put a nasty bite or say it doesn't count, you know, they probably haven't really, really gone for for a goal.

And, you know, that's one thing about every guy there, which for sure, in particular, LeBron and the Miami Heat.

They both understand what's at stake and and you know it's never happened before.

I think that's Ah, that's quite a unique situation, and, you know, we'll see what happens.

And I mean the playoffs, they've been incredible.

I mean, the games have been incredible.

Um, you know, there have been some dramatic instances already, and that's just the first two rounds.

So I expected to get even even better as a zoo.

The conference finals continues to go and start.

Chris, every time I hear you speak your so objective in your neutral in the way you look at things, so you get to pick one.

Who are you picking was gonna get him on the last question to you.

You got LeBron, LeBron James, LeBron James and Michael Jordan.

You get one, you get one would be I'm not talking about you play.

You get one on your team.

What am I picking for?

It depends on you.

Come on, Chris.

You get one.

You get one, Chris, I get one.

Would you?

I mean, what you gotta put me on the spot like Come on, man.

This is what we do.

Barbershop CB This is what the Oh, look, I'm gonna go.

I'm gonna go.

I'm gonna go with Brian, Um, one, because that's my guy.

I played with him.

Um, you know, he's giving me many assists and many open shots.

A lot of those pocket passes.

Pick and roll to the basket.

He's responsible for you know a nice portion of my points that I got in Miami.

So I'm gonna go with my guy, You know what I mean?

But I only say that because, you know, the of I know what he brings to the table.

We know what MJ brings as well.

But Justus faras like being a teammate, you know, having fun going out there on the court, distributing the ball.

Not that m j is, you know, uh, less or anything We all know he was a killer.

Probably, you know, the greatest scorer of all time, but yeah, I'm gonna go with my God.

Yeah.

Tell me how they're different.

Tell me how they're different.

Um, Brown is more.

He's more of a distributor.

So if you watch his games, he begins the games by He works the games a little more, he passes.

He, um he gets his teammates involved early, and then he kind of becomes aggressive.

His scoring MJ.

Usually he had to triangle offense.

They mastered that and he was always looking toe to penetrate the defense.

Be aggressive.

He's going to get his 30 points.

LeBron is more so gonna have around 25.

26 points.

You know, 30 points when you know 30 points 10 years ago, but now he's more.

You know, he's always been more of a facilitator.

You know, getting guys involved, very patient with the game, you know, and I might be wrong, but this is my synopsis.

I think he's more of a point guard.

Um, that's that was like anytime we were playing with the Heat.

I wanted him to play point, you know, because he's big, he's tall.

He could see the court.

Um, he's always going to get his guys involved.

And you know, he's gonna work the game.

He's gonna see those plays that are working.

He's looking at his guys spaces and saying, Okay, you know C B needs a touch.

Hey, we need to get Dwayne going.

That's where you know, That's where I think he's, um he's very good and, you know, to be quite honest, man, I was always envious of a man because he's gotten it's like everybody's like Oh my goodness, LeBron James.

Yeah, of course, he's been looking at offensive, you know, packages for his whole life, with the ball in his hands as a big I always wanted to do that because I'm always looking at the guys or there's some stuff behind me that I can't see.

The only thing that that was in front of me was usually defense, and that's why I tried to contribute.

But you know, in his instance, um, he's been looking at offense with the ball in his hands his whole life.

So he's able to see things that a lot of people can't see.
