00:00tell me this what's your dream spurs starting five i go tony at the one i'll put kawaii at the two

00:14okay let's let's put let's put kawaii at the three i put mono at the two no i actually scratched that

00:22nah i'll keep that i'll keep i'll put vic at the four and then i'll put timmy at the five i like

00:29that that'd be a good ass team so basically the classic spurs with wimby in there as well yeah

00:33very good very good tell me this you're very good at defense who are the top three hardest guys you've

00:39had to guard in the nba uh top three hardest

00:41i don't know i don't like giving people credit yeah i respect that i'll give i'll give you top

00:50three though i'm not gonna get no order though that's fine um i'll put kairi up there for sure

00:57um i'll put shea up there and i'll put paulo up there he's got a big body yeah yeah a lot of a lot

01:07of a lot of shoulder bumps i don't know if they're all legal but a lot of shoulder bumps

01:10yeah he's definitely the most physical of those three all right tell me this a lot of people think

01:15that the spurs could take a leap this year what do you think your guys's ceiling is i don't really

01:20want to put a cap on what our on what our season you know could look like uh you know i have a lot

01:24confidence in our guys this year you know we have you know aspirations to succeed in the playoffs

01:30this year you know not just not just made the playoffs so um you know i don't really want to

01:34put a ceiling on it i feel like that's for other people to say i respect that so for me i'll be

01:38like yo low-key the spurs are contender this year how about that yeah let's just say that all right

01:43so a lot of people play against wimby but you're on his team so you're in practice a lot with them

01:47tell me this if you're going against wimby and you're on offense what's the best way to score on

01:52wimby i have i have teammates all right so yeah you're driving down the court it happens to be a

01:56fast break it's you versus him going down the court you can make your move do whatever you want

02:00i mean i don't really know uh i mean you have to find space for a jump shot i mean it doesn't

02:05really matter what move you put on if you're just going to go to the basket you're going to block it

02:09so find space for a jump shot unless i have teammates and i can get a screen so you have a

02:15screen on them and then go around that'd be your move i mean i wouldn't say go around and probably

02:18still try and find space for a jump shot but but yeah kind of off that what's the best way to guard

02:24him if you for you personally you're a guard you're a little smaller than him if you're guarding wimby

02:28what are you gonna try to do to stop uh try and keep him on the perimeter um i mean he could he

02:34could shoot over but i mean it's it's easier than a you know a paint jump shot form or a drop step so

02:40just try and try and get into his legs from the perimeter that's probably probably your best bet

02:45what do you think about him training at the buddhist temple this summer i really don't know

02:48i really don't i really didn't have too many thoughts on it uh i know it helped him mentally

02:52i know that's a big commitment to make so just if he can make a commitment on something like that

02:58outside of what he does every day in basketball then you know sky's the limit

03:03steph tell us about your partnership with usaa

03:06yeah um you know i partnered with them to you know learn a little bit about the prevention of

03:11you know house fires um just knowing how important it is knowing you know how many house

03:17fires happen you know per year 150 000 house house fires per year so uh you know just learning the

03:23importance of that was you know definitely great and um and yeah it was a great day did they teach

03:29you how to put out a grease fire they did uh they showed me a couple ways um one you just cover

03:35the cover the pot back up and then you know the the new the new fire blanket that i used uh to

03:41cover the fire that was also cool oh yeah are you gonna have one of those in your house probably now

03:45um yeah i mean so i'll probably probably go grab one now do you think danny hurley is gonna leave

03:50yukon anytime soon to come to the nba i don't think so no i don't think so you think that's where his

03:55home is yeah uh i mean i i mean i've seen i mean i've heard things from from coach you know just

04:04being in those practices being in those you know film sessions i mean i feel like he i don't i don't

04:09think he's going anywhere he loves you kind of hypothetically if he did come to nba do you think

04:13danny hurley could be a good nba coach yeah absolutely i mean i feel like he'll i feel like

04:18he'll succeed coaching uh anywhere i mean as long as you can take his coaching and don't don't shy

04:23away from me wmba you think he can still do it yeah i mean i don't see why not this is kind of a

04:28different question have you seen your wikipedia photo no my co-worker sent it to me it's kind of

04:33interesting take a look that's straight up what they have for your wikipedia photo

04:37most people got like a team photo or something and it's just you looking inside

04:42is that at the white house i think that's what we were assuming it was probably at the white house

04:47yeah i think that's at the white house that's a weird picture what's your dream yukon starting five
