You're seeing it as well. No, he literally started off with, I didn't want to address it. I didn't want to address it. I wasn't going to address it. But since the video came out, I feel the need to address it. Are you kidding me? If there's one person that couldn't wait to the video to drop so you could address it, it's like seriously.

The whole point. Never would I ever not allow people to talk about the sport, criticize players about what they do on the court. That is your job to criticize or to be in a position where, okay, if a guy's not performing, that is all part of the game. That's all part of the game.

But when you take it and you get personal with it, it's my job to not only protect my damn household, but protect the players. And I think a lot of the media, including him, and I know he's going to be happy as hell. He's going to be smiling from ear to ear when he hears me talking about him. Oh, my God. He's going to get home and grab some ice cream out of the fucking...

Who, me and Michael? Jordan. Yeah, we're a good spot. We don't talk.

I would hope so. You know, the funny thing is, me and Kobe, besides our late great Kobe, obviously, me and Kobe never had a real relationship either until we was on the Olympic team. We had a great relationship there. Olympic team eight, Olympic team 12. But it was always competitive between us. We were always like, I was on the East Coast, he was on the West Coast.

And it was like, even though we never... I fucked up one time in, you know, 09 and didn't beat Orlando. And I think it was 09, didn't beat Orlando and didn't get an opportunity to play him in the finals.

Until I became a Laker and then he retired, that's when our relationship, like, became really, really good. Yeah. You know, he, like, welcomed me, called me, like, bro, anything you need in L.A., like, I got you. You're a Laker now. You're family. You know, and we would have multiple conversations. Obviously, you saw him come in a lot of games and things of that nature.

And when I passed him in the scoring record in Philly, you know, I think he had a tweet out there, like, keep on going. Like, keep transcending the game. Keep going. And that shit, like, meant so much to me. So, like... I think it's because I'm still playing. And MJ, we all know MJ. Even if you don't know him personally, he's one of the most ruthless competitors there is.
