:48:02
Pure shooter, fearsome defender,
a great player.
:48:06
He was coming down for a fast break,
and the defender went for the ball.
:48:09
He brought it behind his back
and switched it over to his right hand.
:48:13
It went through his legs.
:48:14
Defender came up and kind of
stutter-stepped a little bit,
:48:17
pulled back and rang the three.
:48:21
This kid might be ready
for the big leagues.
:48:23
He plays to win, and a lot
of people play to play.
:48:26
This guy plays to win.
:48:28
He understands that if he
performs better, they are going to win.
:48:31
But he knows how to pass.
He plays with his teammates.
:48:34
He has all the attributes
that go into being a winner.
:48:37
When I watched
Kenny Anderson's stuff,
:48:40
- I'd never thought I would see
anybody better than those guys.
- Shit.
:48:43
But along came Jesus.
:48:45
There are very few players
that give you 40 minutes of everything.
:48:49
Michael Jordan'll give you 35.
But 40 minutes of everything he's got...
:48:53
because of what he's overcome
in his life.
:48:55
In terms of dealing
with his sister,
:48:57
and all of the pitfalls that come
with being in a deprived situation.
:49:02
And in a situation that's void of any
kind of leadership other than his own,
:49:07
he's had to be
very, very self-reliant.
:49:10
Now, with kids as good as he is, he's
probably receiving a lot of pressure...
:49:14
to go into the N.B.A.
because so many kids are doing it.
:49:17
When you see a kid with this kind
of talent, it's almost normal for him...
:49:20
to take that into consideration with the
kind of money that they're getting now.
:49:23
But I would tell him that he needs to go
to college and get an education...
:49:27
so that he'll be able to save
the money that he has.
:49:29
My mother, she always
told me that, that...
:49:32
it was great to be a superstar athlete
and to be able to make it to the N.B.A.
:49:37
But... I mean, you're nothing
without your education.
:49:42
And, you know, ever since day one,
she wouldn't let me play basketball.
:49:45
She wouldn't let me play in the garden,
from day one, unless I did my homework.
:49:49
That's right.
:49:51
I think when April 11th comes,
I just wanna let my hair down,
:49:55
kick my feet up
and have a good time.
:49:57
Just go hang out with my boys
back in high school:
:49:59
- Sip, Booger, Lonnie, Mance.
- Lincoln! Linc-- Linc-- Lincoln!
