Atmosphere it's gone to incredible level that is obviously be in their New York with the -- but. He had glimpses of these types of moments that these debt and is level it is time you they would deal with that incredibly well.

That's -- applicant the Harvard coach he did not require -- got the job after Lyndon already bad enough. Recruited there by obviously coached and did a tremendous problem. And another guy. Who matched him up with John Walsh said that. Similar type of what it's amazing when you go back any -- all these people talking about it right now would go back to look at the quotes. Old quotes of these guys I think that the league's screwed up Mike and they they did not do their homework teams did not do their mark this is not a kid. It is just come out of the woodwork.

Nowhere okay that's that's true but let me let me ask you -- I gave you if I've put. 400 dollars and 500 dollars on the table.

Hitler was right but I have -- I doubt I could I never have you been there -- garbage I've not been there this year you know is just part and I can understand look. It's it's it's the job of NBA scouts general managers to find players. All over the all over the world -- to and the United States to. But if -- looking for if you're looking for players and his -- that a lot of people don't go to Ivy League first and they certainly. Before the last two or three years were Tommy Amkor is really turn this program around a certain we're looking.

Our hearts that no -- to me that's on an excuse that we cannot say yeah that's we cannot tell you why they go all over the world. Don Nelson 25 years ago was going overseas in the offseason to go find players that that's that's bogus. -- they -- you find you find these kind of anywhere you find them anywhere.

Said that he was an NBA starter eventually -- individually scored twenty in an NBA game. It goes on and on and on -- now we go to this season. Mark Jackson takes over as coach of the Golden State Warriors head down man down he has no idea. Jeremy mama their goal -- remember you did have a chance to new York and had the chance to evaluate the players in the summer league in this offseason might have been a factor. In the hidden career and out Jeremy -- and and so they get him the first day. And what.
