Maybe I guess what you do take a firm. Absolutely. I saw you at any attack got you know whereby there is such a big family, where I had ventured to restructure our help,
a firm yeah, otherwise everybody's gonna go where, even if you do makes fifty million years that healthy to just give money now is now.
How did you get money as much as you want
We always wanted deadline and experience,
you wanna give some education goes way from other might enable descended with flat screen tv is an xbox and maybe some food, and that its back to call

although we were taller beggar, but they were definitely men and it follows backing
The nearby we literally haven't go upstairs, even though he was home here.
we can rely on eight August and are unable to do anything, but we want at all what is done is following us back to the neighbour pissed you now just like deliver
here and now that the last time I do, I'm not gonna do this anymore. Norway gave a downwards
Oh yeah, I mean that if he had caught you before, you got home possible,
somebody butterfly than bad women than it would have been, my god what happened. While we took the food here, yeah Minafer Summer Soldier over the last,
doubling double all about her.
That you learned how to cook crack growing up his address
Oh yeah, I learned about maybe talk dirty and there I mean that's offering you really.

does she know about this? Now I mean about the butter.
nobody out, but only one person, my arrival, motherlike learners, nephews. You know she might have yet the Indian Ocean over the year that man,
what's the matter using my mom, what is there for that? I haven't. You started play basketball on the suggestion of a councillor who saw that you had what like an anger, management problem and does not always play about know best. What started I got really good and I'm not I'm better nine and a half to eleven.
I thought I was playing our times. I was kept just better, but then you know I was always angry problems, young, even as a kid yeah since
Since you know how I got suspended from pre school, you got to say
we risk. Why do you think it's always go canny? Guy he's not can go first,
every year I was ill school. I understand it prevented. Did you get suspended? Everything's gonna be MBA or not not every hour, maybe overseas
every season it maybe I was gadget other
This is a theme every maybe not in the market, where the air market price progress than are going to have this work is suspended
Collins Key Largo to great unaccountably school. Now they don't stand for that other spending.
Does go like having to spend it.
once I Mccarthy School
longer than I was. It didn't want timing college minimum always for fighting everything with the five year. Okay. So where did you get there?
He had a fight all the time. You must have been angry for reason. What you have
you look like people
Bigger people. Try to touch you yeah, so
as the appointed time where somebody else alone. If you tell me, you got a chance to get really hurt.
You don't say that most of them are vital. One guy get me in front of a lunch line and I went to work on
That's not normal right. Like you know, in unknown, we only do askin me one guy,
follow. I wasn't
like undetermined gorgeous
you're right, it was always a customary do something really small and I just took it to the next level, but it would have caused, has grown up as a kid.
You just playing tag with you having fun today, people PIC Pic Pic and then it's like. Okay, I won't point in time. Are you going to stamp
Fatima Mine ass. It always new visa
Never let anyone boy you never let it won't pay body so
like I was always ready to go. Do you still get in red?
if somebody like cut you off on the highway knew too old to be thinking about that. I think
but most of my passions and aggressions are goes towards days. I love like. I want to be successful
but then slop put all that that I've got me into some
like I want to be successful, yeah
I was in it ass light and swore TAT makes sense in fired me for dwelling on their right put a lot of a global put in passion, but they don't hate people, or
people out or get in trouble? I get suspended or things I got. So I'm wondering. Did your parents fight at all growin up like what you seeing a lot of all and I was in the streets and all my parents if by some time those noble fuels will be both, but in the street Jemmy streets is different
I mean you role would collect
Oh you're, all by itself is a different type of person. You're gonna, be you don't, even though you know you can chew
right right out what people by some founded you get too deep involved here.
right. Well, you gotta somehow build your own personal army, we're just you.
You gotta be ready to go, go out for yourself, the inevitable your friend I was always like. I'm gonna protect myself here.
This sounds I mean it sounds like something you evolve when you grow up in queens reservoirs of place like that, like you, don't just go ammo
that roll off my back, because that that's a bad reputation that be the person who doesn't it
fight back now. Usually bill has too many times.
Twitter logo.
it's all you do is you were some volume
I got so mad when amount to my room. I still have one thousand scissors and other ok
You'd almost don't go right in front of the crude eyes by myself with themselves this satellite there.
Is ready to go
that's not gonna do I'm new, but now my I want to hear the ozone layer, but the thing was like us, but people the discipline,
I'll, be unable you know. No, what somebody's going to even though you be received, go outside. We see children laughing, but you know what that person is going to do.
now saw, but it seems that we are going to the same things. Are we not in
We're not gonna do that today. I have been a good day today.
that was the wrong person the Bali today here, but now that MRS Diamond, I have been big bigger facing you almost stab somebody was sailors were needed, therefore right, but
I urge that it was at the plenary. It is like a plan was to go. Yeah plan was was rock.
I don't know how different your life would have been if you had done some of the things that you are even just thought about new and is a good one.
I was very aware to soar
I was aware I mean so many times during situations
especially will allow from so many times some some of the greatest Basle.
I have my neighborhood was essential situations.
Talking, I'm talking mainly players. I pro scale level. You grew up nearer Lamar Odom right in fifteen twenty minutes away.
we're not sure there will be a guy can either play with.
Daniels, Irascibly, ok, we're Carmelo re. He took on this type of attack,
you know the shining rise, a that's awful ray,
you, don't say I knew in my answer.
You just stand in the heart and a high school game tat. Is he the one who
I killed on the record. My lady, that's off by the sheer remember his name. Gregor he got killed with a broken table leg right
my body leaky is Doorn Documentary on Queens Ridge and he's amount documentary he alarm
about him, he's clockwise ridge kings.
Are you learning more about lie?
why are we idolize law
I lifelong learning, but this is the time of day
That is what was happening and we have just told Euro just like what the hell,
was happening. How do you navigate this life?
It also allows ok, I'll just be ready.
Just a minute also use
that mindset onto the court of course, because why wouldn't you are you grew up and that I mean it arguably didn't service
Well some of the time right I mean you ended up what we'll get to this, but one of them
you are well known for is things like the malice at the palace, which is probably not something that you consider one of fine
moments right and is a moment. I don't really care about it. Honestly,
there has been a while. I'm in your friends are the guy is a whole thing. Now it's like it's been so long, but there's a lot of it's interesting to hear that you sort of made peace with that, so you're too,
two years old, it said, and this is just Cerveza, my research correctly, where it's wrong is. Of course nobody has the insight to your bank account, but
twenty two and you get a forty two million dollar contract extension after going from Indiana to Chicago Sea or twenty two years old,
you're, looking at forty two million dollars, but you already had a bunch, probably cause you. Would you already three?
The area may do so. You say I actually panicked. Why for the third package, like I just like when I find I did,
while the deal for they do that's relating to you anyway. It's a video or not in comparison to my challenge now by two of that person.
Am I tell a level? Was there again ten twelve at that time, but it was bitter
the forty two million dollars. I do not want to do anything to another from literally for any one of anyone. No one in the world is gonna, go that's a rip off ray, I mean yes, maybe NBA blazed will set us really that's of coal. I guess that makes it worse.
The revival of by now
we think. My life here like Europe must. This is crazy, like never in my wildest dreams, you no doubt they will be able to take him a family, and we will do everything. So
and meanwhile is suspended the fresh air into the contract man. You know afresh,
drug
good Lord. So when you get suspended, I take it. You just don't get paid very diverse. Yet these are something of Jack. That's the whole point of the suspension, yeah. Otherwise, nobody.
the terror radiation score? Why did you say I actually?
What was that all about the thing? I dare say you know color. My ears is changed from time to time, but I think what happened was deadly and what happened
No, it doesn't hurt there. That's imitating the Earl you do. What do you do with it? You never really prepared to forty two million doubts now. Twenty one after tat,
smoke money, but you just knew that railway cause you're gonna wait a minute I will get have ended. A man could have a conversation about,
Yet I can never breakdown, though at age twenty one he said you had a level over to the side of the road. This is my maybe before you signed, but you said I'm trying to escape something. What is that? It was a new and now I know the brig downwards right. Wasn't at that point. It was our house twenty one thousand league
and I knew I was approaching, contracted
so that was on my mind then I also was
Young and the industries in China.
figure out. What what are you gonna? Do you gonna be any strengthening only play basketball said Alice
I was juggler were loaded
then not really addressing suppressed issues,
so then we will really have with alcohol. Could I think,
drink alone. That much up all, I think, those
because I was literally been so you were drinking.
even during the
That seems like a hard thing to do nothing
you go on we shape our car
and I can go to any amount of paying so fairly tired
as a Dane yeah right, there hung over the re. Longer was not a day. I returned were a couple times from told with Jordan Brackets really was.
For a while? Only John you're coach must have been like snow lack of funding,
ribbon. Allow call man, but I'm coming to swear out. As I go on sweated out, it may wait you
This is all allowed. None and I'm here I'm here we working on finding work. But that being said, we talk about the alcohol pipe youngest. What love, but it's the present rate of already has a down the down right. So, as Father been down,
you don't feel down, so the alcohol is not make anything better right. Ok, I searched every object. Go every day to say you know what I'm not gonna, whereby any problems in a number of other issues. I miss military from alcohol
and also go let's go out here. You do solved not yet you just post pointing abroad, but when you're twenty one twenty two airily think it will not get about that, but as a major problem, major powers me your lesson.

anything. I want right this point in time. So let me,
Nineteen, when you got enough money, you think this is the most wanted were right by the shark S. Little not hurt you
so for me, I'm like a wound which here, but
Why am I worried about something that could five thousand dollars from such a really reject right? I'm looking at the numbers in the monies leaving the accountant, so Mama, I'm just like I need is disco.
Do they not limit how many things you can buy, what you're discount? I guess they figured you probably also,
a boy dvds. Without yet a boy stereo system for my apartment, and I was very much
two thousand and one for I was very those distant from my private,
But for my part, I want to stay.
about car boy Dallas.
Mainly boy. That's really funny that you are. You eventually had to leave because I think that with the league said, hey Manasseh view wasn't really was very, very costly y y. You work in a circus city like I don't wanna get arrested.
What did you tell him about wanting? I know not as a joke, I can go back,
the general manager sort of city was incredibly nice. Is it you want,
because I, like the worker, is no
the papers and yeah, I'm I'm sure he thought that you were men and women.
at some point I am in Canada
Firstly, regarding gaming papers and while Gregor that's it, I'm surprised has needs.
they'll been there. Maybe they wouldn't go out of business with all the money you were thrown back into the company, our IP circuit city. I know that's gotta be a first version
be a pleasure to have a part time jobs do in retail sales. Some people still go to college
Robot is different. That's different than me and, like I want to sell Britney spears. Some people should yet
I think you would you like a jelly,
Megan! Thirty, five thousand here you know and you go you. Maybe what did you think? Maybe the NBA would go away and it was good that you had a job. Was there any sort of like this? Is my back at play? I'm always woman.
As always in an between streets, education, a ball back so
thirteen us and I want to be urgent message and I was not going to make thirty five thousand dollar thirty. Five thousand be enough to give us some food
and are the amount teacher and perfect
only the industry's no guns, no drugs, now good. So that's my sorrow. Take
there serious?
I became better. Basketball has alarm bucket achievable pro, but then, when I was first going to college major architecture to outside nodded
saying genes Miami. Why am I M University and Providence positive?
of course, our good as rules and architecture, is a really really tough major for people who don't know is wrong.
It's not really ray. It's almost like trying to your own daughter is, unlike that oil Italia. Miami had a great architect programme, not a day. I had a great architect programme and they were ready,
the point I want to ask Ellison, I'm not agree students,
I'm I'm gonna put at work, but then
who's in jars and have a great programme. Providence
Great programme and the man who I didn't have a great programme for architecture, architecture, Saddam, Epic, Miami to Miami.
But then the day when I was picking change,
you're, ok, yeah through the village, I mean you had to choose basketball over architecture. If you get a chance to go Prodi and there's no architect that makes us much is what I actually what they actually put me in engineering school. They put me in engineering coma first semester, I'm ok cool, I'm
engineers go out, but, prior to their five forty five, a him
So I was really hard to do that and outside is drafted man. That's a lie.
of Work man, I mean that, as you know why you say that you got the parts I'm job, because if you have time you get in trouble, but then I read: look he's drinkin hennessy cognac in the locker room at half time, while with the bulls during games.
I imagine that I met twice. Ok, because that tone,
you don't need a lot of time to get into trouble. That year there like,
whereas there was a one time I was just like whatever with this mba stuff. You know why I just lucky. You know I think it was
I think for me. I didn't have a chance to pause and reflect
and really just assess. You know the problem that always you'd, probably roads more from yeah. Well, that's interesting! So little problem,
cut. It sounds like they overwhelmed you a little bit,
does anyone know if you do not want it? Please
it is the one. That is why you randomly
made a little thing happens. I just religious get over, you know, yeah word is driven
You had some antics that made the news right, not just the fighting in step with theirs in February, two thousand, for you were a bath robe over your practice, uniform to a patient's practice as a symbolic reminder to take it easy, which I honestly that idea has legs. I must start by casting a bathroom but
some of these antics going out to Jimmy killing your box or shirts like what's goin on here. What that was that for it alive we mean that
there's a lot of me. While I go on tv that are fully clothes
Ok
about says, incurs. Ok, that's that
we all face roaring pants. This interview, I don't know I mean I urge fellow who cares Jimmy's grave,
I will let you know you put on your blog. So you go on tv payment model. Pitcher long billboard
because they were boxes, but it just like is the same right of areas.
Moreover, I would just like I don't fly witnessing today how they want to work
moreover, how does one are all about. I was in bed began to a meeting this. In my mind, that is not the right way to approach. It sure nothing,
a programme of answer in my mind, is like. I don't need you to tell me what
we're gonna, wanna title that gazette we're going with idle.
you guys later. I mean
You could understand why people Morocco, is he ok right, like
probably a lot about. It was a Masood I was in the air or like you, shop and Jimmy Catalonia boxes which, by the way people lived in it, was funny clip, but it was almost like does he know,
this is funny I role really great shape. Also during the shapes, what I was among other things,
all right. I got a lot of good Shiela. Women were like. Oh, let me pay attention
that wasn't part of you know. I just haven't
When I worked out for me
aroused outward. Will you write your prime, like all my gun is yet they are seen as world as well
and you got it- you got the most out of life when it came to the media, I think
but I wonder what it was like.
what it is like as your life for a while not for-
always before a while was based on some of your worst moments or one of your worst moments, especially now that the powers which have enough for a million
the people of Europe for people
don't know there was like the all this
reason is going on. You ended up on the stands in and hidden a fan. While
at the wrong guy, but the guy who you didn't hit one in the wrong. I was actually work. I was our guy. Ok, the story is that it was wrong ones stories out, there's a bunch it's hard to get. It streamlines the guy who had he been John. Fifty dollars
that guy right, so they were both available, but like Nero
that made international news. Millions of people saw it
I think we can agree not one of your finest moments right and you elbow James hardening ahead in a separate incident. He got a concussion there's a lot of light,
by the way, if any of my questions get on your nerves, just know that getting punched in the face live on a show might be the big break I need, but like what I'm getting at here is what's going on your head during those days you mentioned that you can't you had troubles,
like dealing with anger. Obviously that's the case, but what goes your head? Is it just blank at that point now really I mean the brow was, though, that a simple familiar me yeah, that's right, you know was simple solution to a problem,
someone present about you, you just dollars, and I on the latter.
but it was. May I was painted, as
he was stressed, and he was depressed
they'll painted as that, but when you look at it framed by frame,
You can never pay someone in a light were, as someone has done, then they had someone back said. The person I had the person back is under mental pressure. There was a boy of course made consulted
that happens. Right here has caused a defence everywhere. Yeah I mean we're in such a big profession, and the industry in sports was profession the industry. So
from that perspective. You know it's not right here right, but also the person's trying to get away. Are there no longer threat you're not supposed to go after that sort of the exception to that? But why are we so unable to
ah says that kind of angry man you were laying underscoring tables are trying process the wayward. What did happen quick, I got hit, and then I reacted. It wasn't processing nothing. It was just like I've got reaction, I mean if someone get punished
You smiling a passionate phrase. I don't think they take five minutes to think about it generally, not but
people were running ever like I've run away there may last year. I am aware that my group, always I'm gonna, sit there just below. Ok, I just push my face.
What should I do about it? We had a lot of stored in a grocery dietary folk know. It's like I just got pushing my face. Could how did it s? Life is like
nature and you gone. He bought a diet. Coke knows where appear other now, that's right. It was a beer.
And yet no, I saw the video me. What was the video and shone out? People who are in this situation would be really.
Yes, it does not like not just a moment
like, when you that way off the court as well, particularly not the guy like my life, is Canada differ from whom the court, but did you get in fight off? The court, is well at that time.
The fate of the court in the- but I was like that say that guy
and you go to a bar someone steps on your phone now, while I was plain and in view of the Gore really ok, so this is,
mostly only during the games, are we sought to serve aggressive behaviour. Hop ever do so.
Were intimidated, not on the side of the coin in Vienna. Ok,
in the fight for the high school. How do you have
like a real. Besides I can on a court.
an aggressive, I'm going to have failed to
did. You say you were intimidated by some of the other players. I can't remember who was maybe like you know. I have drawn a blank urine,
today by some of the other star Blair's, so you had to be kind of meaning
really a grant. No, I wasn't that it was. I used to play you summoned him. They play before him
Ok, you don't know what I was going to then be I'm a disguised. You know some light
in autumn I may not survive you gonna write fight, you, ok,
you also eightys and the seventies, and there wasn't. I grew up it.
But ever so I might like. I'm will be ready for this, especially
goddamn it I'll do I'll be right? Are you ready for this have asked basketball? He said
wish. I was Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, but I'm not. I have a lot of emotions going through me. I think you re talking about emotional management, not necessarily basketballs asked the wall. Street
but I ask myself what would be the best models is never to be light. You no second, you know some people goals are to be debating fundamentally because will be the best known
economists models was to be the best yeah yeah. I didn't I mean that's, that's a chance.
That said, I still to this day on asked me to come down from that. Have a mindset,
you don't own here, with the exception of I'm. Ok would not be the best. Could I do my career?
the stats are what it is, and I'm ok with that. But
There are still no. When I was a kid I you know, I want to turn. I wanted to be the best way to allow us to have that. Do you know any the woman
the sort of like over achiever or competitive anyway. I've heard it is imperative to have that was like podcasting. Ninety, have you know I don't have a park as a package? Was farmers are not true
and the way the number one partner
this. Doesn't I just the top yeah? I did
but it's over my edges and totally
Oh yeah, you're gonna get industry for that. You get a sports doktor to help you relax. Do you think that if you had better emotional,
management back then you could have achieved more as a player out for sure I killed a ton as employee did yeah. I would.
She's out a double data yeah, I was sure downloaded a central. Instead of just stay out of trouble, you gotta go beyond what you had gone beyond what you ve done. I mean
We talk about the numbers of the words I have about,
if it's player the year now talking about these guns, so grateful than aware of these at least, but I'm differs, wait a year all start first him all different. First him all day. The second theme, seventy turf team or India
That's it so then, now you can wait a brawl year.
That was yet another all star nother,
all defence another all seem eleven. Another potentially differs widely award threats, twelve
and then you go to the next year. Not an extra suspended from the pace is now like you don't mind, allowed detrimental to the tea for another night. Another philosophical or star has thirty at another, all differences
Maybe maybe right yeah, that's fifteen, and then I was traded and then I was coming from,
fears, but let us say I stayed in Indiana for us at least to all stars.
At least one more all can be
Write. Tell us about you talking about another twelve award. You know, that's not counting like two thousand and nine two thousand and ten, when I was in my
so who knows for nothing for you. I particularly only a third all really
also the mantle it's interesting. So in your head, you have like a pass when you didn't make all those sort of mistakes and another path where for sure and I'm fine with the motorway, I'm so happy what should or could it because this is a real shouldn't. What could it goes on?
I feel really been about it. I feel
I am really happy that I,
What I am really happy. Just always thinking about
Could I have another war after six and everything
holding the fog suspended and that could have been
I always wanted to do him. Vp get it, but you want to know something about.
That we have no other choice, but to be ok boy, you, I guess you don't matter about it. I guess you get me one another. I do get rid of all my words, but I know that you got
rid of all that and you even sold one of your rings. Talk about that. In the end,
I wonder how much goodwill, but you you don't get the sports doctor
so to helping you handle stress differently or help angles, pornography sports, thereby to hang handle the angry different
do you think a lot of players need the help that you saw it and the help you got, but maybe they were afraid to ask for it I mean it was.
play if you look at the history of sports here as they India
history and the players.
documented problems here so without documented problems. I think you know, I wonder,
This was the beginning now yet, and I wonder if these plays actually looked searched watched every. I love was there
a lot of the people that I interview on the show we'll say things like man
he knew how to handle interviewed a famous mobster
and he said if they knew how to handle learning disabilities. When I was a kid I would never have joined the mob and he's a mob hit man. You know you're, saying hey: this is what I probably would die
if I had been able to control my anger, but it is interesting to see mental health become a focus of people as they get older. Especially,
but who have achieved or mental health is a hot topic very lucrative industry, yeah yeah yeah
I think that now look or to industry and the most important parliamentary office foundation and that the foundation as the family rights or the stronger the family, the less likely some
gonna grow and mental health issue, because you always have your dad about always go back to get that role in vice,
right. Did that real love that role advise a cave remind came from the day.
and not everybody have that. So with being said, then you have things that power which turns into depression turns excited. Then it's so much. It turns into
Illness attorney, not even illness, be before the elevators into your mind is an occasion to suppress therefrom suppression
you either born with a chemical, unbalanced or you're gonna develop a mental illness. Can just so much going on you in your brain, your brain, you know so the foundation of the most the most important piece that I coming.
Talk about everyone talks about how nice you are now which is kind of a lot less, isn't it from from back. In the day you felt, like you, had to hate your opponent to play ball. Everyone from the fence.
the camera man to other players. I've heard you say something along those lines for sure. That's more like a boxing match
How did I hear when I went into a room largest
I normally did not like anyone, but it just great because I was so competitive I'll even allows competitive at our just so over the top crazy.
Yeah, I was, I decided to give you a rational levels of offshore, because I copious competitive by you.
so you re ration right there for sure
I was very rational. I'm a look. Tat are making context, but I've never put it like that, but it just it was unnecessary.
yeah yeah, I'm in practice and I'm just so home. I see them
who play on its on a bench. The thirteenth play, a China make drastic
I just want to demolish. Don't you know
I want to give them a shot. I mean they're, taking the boar from these kids. Does China made the tea?
The money was every single person at touched. His flock. Why? Because,
How does a viable more, like you know them?
into the game is the same things on a day to say these are red, I'll, be apprised. One thousand probably recall out he said run for now.
We know today rolling over twenty percent twenty his upper his lungs, and am I I I
Let's just go Obama when we ask that already has other rebound myself attack like in practice. If I told you to flow
You might have been a to slow stop and I would just like my group. I need to get one hundred percent today.
if you were insecure. Is that why you did that? Thousands of your offers things up- and I don't know- does
and when you everything adds up right here. I just the way I just stood there and I don't work hard and another thing is over. Doesn't I felt like
I feel I don't go heart. It was something I couldn't get over.
There was a really were felt very on. What would you call it? Not even unprepared scare,
like a very demanding. Wasn't it
I don't know. I think I was scared, a loser, because
Did you feel like it? I'm something about you. If you lost your mind,
I can handle advocacy most about most of my issues.
How do you do the math came out the loss yeah? You said that
you're, a sore loser in that you're right, a lot of the big threat of negative immense work from a loss like with the assumption of them
I would start we were winning side was ok, but when you look at the next internet, when the night, when I broke the camp, when I was at a loss,
we gotta go in time. We lost the.
The airlines to over Manchester broke picture than the large room after love, her Chicago broke pitches. You know,
Peter tone of the warlike men. Might be Georgia's pitches, take it off the wall. You know, beginning to the plain we lose against dollars. I take the food and all food on the fly about food down on the floor,
like you, I guess I was and how lose even in practice
gets so mad and I thought like it was great and healthy, but then it's like okay practice, those imagine if I'm so pissed off after losses practice is over and I just can't get over it. So I'm just I'm thinking about this for tomorrow,
all day, yeah, that's it then I said: that's it. That's no way to live. There arises no one went away if someone is trying to think back, and probably other people were pry passed through other food on the floor. There are hungry after the game
like we lose now, I can't even eat couple I did at once may want to twice per minute when I thought my purpose, we spoke about stopped me. Basically, someone would be the best like the ok with endless. I need a balance on safer.
the point of my career. I took away all that stuff that made me great toning down to tone it down
so some days we will lose the guy who happy the at all. Happy! That's tough vote.

How can you our people to be able to afford mental health services? So that's like some does really point to me. Then, too, that the foundation when you look at some like me are the people of athletes
