Just got to set the tone. That's about it. Your dad almost didn't make it here, but he was certainly there by the end. What did it mean to have him as you go to your first NBA Finals? Yeah, a lot. They had a seven hour delay, but he made it. It meant a lot to be here. We've seen you do this before in Phoenix, where you just kind of rip the hearts out of the crowd on the road in the elimination game. How would you describe that feeling to demoralize the crowd on the road in this situation? It's a good feeling, man. I can't lie. Just go out there, and it's us against them. Just stay together. But that feeling, that feeling is great. Was there one fan in particular that you kept going at early on? Yeah. What was that about? I can't tell you. If I tell you, I can sue him. But you know, that gets me going. Everybody knows that by now, so just got to do it. And then you guys, obviously, last year disappointing, end up in the lottery. To make this leap, what do you think were kind of the key developments to make this happen just in the span of a year? Insane. I think we've got a great team. But most importantly, we've got great guys, great guys on the team. From players to coaches to everybody on the team, we have great guys. And that's the most important thing. Like I said, we stay together, and we just play basketball. Especially, I think we beat three very, very, very good teams. And having home advantage, which is pretty good for us. For you personally, growing up watching the NBA from afar, maybe watching the NBA finals late at night, what does it mean to you to reach this point? I didn't watch, because it was 4 in the morning. I had school next day. What does it mean to you personally to reach this milestone six years into your career? It means a lot, man. It means a lot. It's not easy. It was a very hard road, very hard. But we are here. Obviously, we're not done winning four more. But I think today, we all deserve to enjoy this win. You've had great games and closeouts at home. But on the road, is it sweeter? Way sweeter, yeah. Why? I mean, just because, you know, because of? Just because, I mean, you know the crowd is going to be in there. You know, when you scored a bucket, when we scored, it gets a little bit quieter. So that's why it's sweeter. But it doesn't matter if we win at home, if we win away. We just want to win. And when you think of Boston, what's the first thing that comes to your mind? I mean, they're the best team in the NBA. They had by far the best record. They have some incredible weapons on offense and defense. So we're going to have to play really hard and amazing basketball to beat them. Can you tell me about Jason Kidd and how much you guys respect him? Jason Kidd? I can't hear you, sorry. Can you talk about how much Jason Kidd, as much as this team, and what he has, gives you guys respect? A lot, and everybody, too. You know, he understands me and Kyrie's role, because he's been in that role. So he helps us a lot. But everybody, he kept everybody together. You know, we were up, we were down a lot, especially during the season. It was ups and downs all the time. But he kept us together. A lot. Like I always tell you guys, it's been great to have him. It helped me mature. It helped me see the basketball in a little bit different ways. So everybody's glad he's on our team. Luka, your smile says it all. Seeing what your path has been, your career with this team, seeing the MVP trophy in front of you in the West Finals, leading this group to the finals, what are those emotions, those feelings? Those are very good emotions. That trophy is for everyone. It's for the whole team. Without this team, without these players, without this coach, I wouldn't be here. So thanks to them, I can have this trophy. Luka, two years ago, you guys were here as the younger team playing against an experienced Golden State team. Now that role kind of reversed. Do you feel the difference in experience from 2022 to now? I wouldn't say reverse. I think we have a young team. Outside of Kyrie, Kyrie getting old. But, you know, we're a young team still. Do you feel the difference? No, I think there's a lot of people that wasn't in the playoffs. We had that talk before the playoffs, everybody together. We just play. We like to play basketball, we like to play together. That's it. You're telling us how old you are. I'm old too. Me and Kyrie, we're the old heads on the group. And Keith. We're the past 30 years. Where does that trophy go on the trophy case? Middle, off to the side? Home, home. I don't know where. What's in the middle? You know, is that Eurobasket still or? I don't have that trophy. I wish I had. I have the Euroleague trophy, but I don't know. We'll see. Well, maybe in four more wins, you might have one to go in the middle? Hopefully. That one for sure, if we make it. Thank you.
