You know now we just try to get -- put -- together shortly mitigating any it. -- at this again haven't seen. You know you're obviously got traded here for Eddie House. A while ago just a short time ago but. I'm wondering Nate did you seek a trade out of New York did you did you go to Donnie Walsh in Mike the -- -- and say -- Did he betray me and -- though is pretty ancient Leo you know Eddie house's. The -- and let it stand they east. Of the city shut divides China detained you know you know would begin began. What what happened in New York -- -- would the Antonio for a while too before he took the job he said Nate Robinson's going to be the sixth man of the year. And then there was that time were -- -- you and and didn't put you back in the game limited which and again had a forty point game I believe. What what what how would you describe that relationship and and what we're that why was it's so up and -- I was so down. Beyond that let me vehicle -- a regulation that aren't really understand what happened that. You got beat up or -- so now I went to look out jubilation in. -- of the made it though it. And that's fine -- but you know quote the great. A -- he does everything -- -- his way. That players that you -- expected that denied it was respect him respect his decisions. And -- -- -- these debates it is that could argue against it I had it there -- you know -- maternity you know be patient. We surprised that dock used you as much as he did last night -- is. Rajon Rondo because I don't think we envision you guys being on the court together all out often. Well right now -- you know they've made easier because heavily don't know ought to play that'll basic. And -- -- want to get -- did he give it the bill you know we gave it you know it did play it would -- personality guys but media out of a bachelor's of retirement place that's like and where eagle and the biggest time what you don't have to be so tired out of place that -- put it 45 the last night. It is to get nervous because of the Belgian company. Try to give the neck and and help him help this team. Give that would indeed be. What's harder thing free it'll learn the plays says you could say or the player it's. I mean over the ball you know -- started you know everything but you know continue to play my game that's what I that it loses. Beat eight other cities. You know you know beat a guy that plays hard doesn't need a quarterly. Scored a basketball -- -- ball is reflected in better. What did you know about the Celtics before you came to town I mean what what was you know what guided you pay attention to what guided just. -- to -- history you know the the most educated basketball ever. Eighteen batters. So any -- -- we -- -- that's so great. Double a big bad wolf -- just follow basketball itself but those facilities the Celtics lakers in. -- you know -- The Betty you know he's have been in the past you know since. And indeed -- in BA but they ought art. Attitude you know -- -- in the in the world so it is good to be a part of it and hope that it makes history here. In high school you're not only the best basketball player in your state you with the best football player in your state. You went you went to the University of Washington played a year of of big time. Did you ever give any thought to -- hey maybe that's the way -- ago. It would decision was would it -- to make a little to do about laws so I just do this word and I want to be -- I -- good to know what that's. May do you. Do you think that yeah I had heard you say when -- interviews that you wanna be known for more than than dunking your three time dunk champion. I know some guys have had not done the dunk contest because they wanna be known as as complete basketball players do you think you're you're done competing in dunk championship -- us. And the police at -- does this because there. But I -- -- it's cool because these are made history here let my kid can always go back to say. -- -- -- three time champion. Obviously. On the I've been less of that -- -- it in the and bill but you're eight. -- about a strong. But -- device so -- You know we do I'll watch out jubilation. Or not you're a retired three time NBA dunk champion and can look at it you know from the outside looking in is it time that. Kind of shuffled out around little bit is again a little stale that competition. It he got up by the it's making its. He got to have that -- a deep that it wanna do it can't put that in that is Billy disability -- Yet it cabin but. I think. May be a part of it is is creativity to make certain guys if you have the same guys doing it over and over again and their creative guys there's probably going to be good contest. Yes they dedicate if it you know debate today -- -- dies. You know at at the -- to. Now -- I gotta be completely honest with you before you came to town before you're Celtic. I used to -- on the air Nate Robinson has got drives me crazy. Not one of my favorite players. And and but I think part of that was the probably got a call the -- Kim Noah effect. It energy players. High energy guys you want among your team but when they're on another team you say -- some of the bottom that gets under gets under your skin. You feel like you feel I have guys said that about you before my the first got to say this. I mean everybody ability. I'd be out tempers we don't care what people think about -- that in I can less. -- probably that'll be that just lead Q would only say. Let me in Atlanta on paid you know it was speech in the so. And unite the app operated -- optics -- you play which is hard -- -- it's low like just. The guys you'd like it made it may billionaires let those that if I didn't get to know big game. Anybody can play again I in the NBA I doubt it but again that. Some who unlike some other place bettors might not like where those beepers. Care people like they owe it to regain. That. List up to -- decency. Wish me happy birthday guess. You can. -- -- -- well you know what. I answer right it's taught him out of power and I've been open minded guy I'm an open mind to guide me I am willing to lead Elise who bought it so. I respect I respect it. -- see much difference. Style wise and I know if the NBA level you don't get to practice much so. Practices don't tell you much you don't get a chance to do much of that but do you notice much difference is style wise between Mike. I mean. At that time he's been off it's that it did a decent. We acted -- if it's inevitable to great head coaches in 01 just spoke lot of these is the world of Nevada office. And end up spending I don't know how to put this the culture. And I know you're still learning that the the atmosphere around the dressing room in the players. Is it different here because of the veteran presence of all we called the Big Three with KG and ray and Paul. Here -- BA you could say that you know that I go to big Brothers -- -- In the Euro group of young -- you know like -- who would love the game just play the game for what it is. And you know knowledge you know we met by the it we have made player also you know we know. You know we did know what that he'll learn and in case you guys make well what it can't be just but he you know they know what to expect. So now it is you know it is different transition in. Culminated with. I always -- what Charles Darwin's theory about what it is that a that a deal would suggest that adapt. I don't know how many guys have mentioned the First Amendment and Charles Darwin in one interview sir you're off to a pretty good start here. That was had here -- Sports Radio but let me ask you is that -- always had a theory about players. We're under six feet taught these guys spent so much time opponents. Try to take advantage of the height difference. That they get out of their normal games you know they they tried -- -- -- -- post him up on the try to post him up and and get away from their games in the team's game -- do you find that. What did you or did you find that when you first started playing in the NBA gods work. Trying too hard to take advantage of the -- different. And that it has plenty capable to do you know it's that fighting these Nazis in. Exploit of the -- and capitalize and that's what that it -- about you know read if the situation in. So what does -- what is your approach when you when you're approaching when your garden guy who is you know 616263. It is able so comfortable. That went but a couple about in the wake up each and mr. arguably in. The the -- of the ball. Outside because whatever it is that can do they did so comfortable with it'll be you know two couples cavity and make it shot to. You know it'd -- its -- automotive competent but I can't. May we appreciates taken the time to join us welcome to Boston and good luck the rest of the -- it take you take care. All right outside Nate Robinson newest member of the Boston Celtics.
