00:00 All right, Richie, what are you looking forward to in the FIBA World Cup?
00:04 We've got some big names doing it off.
00:06 >> We do.
00:07 First of all, I guess we're all watching the Ant-Man show, right,
00:10 with Anthony Edwards of the Timberwolves just going off in the qualifying,
00:14 well, not the qualifying, the run up to it with the US team.
00:17 >> Right. >> You got that and you got,
00:18 you know they're gonna be good hands because former Maverick Jalen Brunson is
00:22 running the show.
00:22 He gets the ball where it needs to be on time and on target passes.
00:26 So I think they'll be run very efficiently.
00:28 The team, of course, we're interested in, everybody is, is Slovenia and
00:32 Luka Doncic.
00:34 >> Always fun to watch.
00:35 >> Always fun to watch and it looks like he's in better shape.
00:38 >> Yep.
00:39 >> He's got his own nutritionist traveling with him.
00:42 I mean, can Luka take another step?
00:45 That's it because we've, I think it was you who called him chubby last year.
00:48 Maybe that was me.
00:49 Maybe that was me.
00:50 >> I would never.
00:52 >> Maybe that was me, chubby Luka.
00:53 >> I would only ever say fluffy.
00:55 >> But he, yeah, much better.
00:57 Much better.
00:58 He comes into camp even in better shape.
01:00 That's the next step in his evolution.
01:01 We'll see that in Slovenia.
01:03 >> You can always feel like he brings all the intensity too when he plays for
01:06 a special.
01:07 >> I've mentioned this before.
01:08 Watch him with tons of Mavericks games.
01:11 I'm not saying he's an elite player, top five player.
01:15 But the passion and the joy he plays with Slovenia is tenfold of what he does
01:21 with the Mavericks.
01:22 >> Because of the amount of games.
01:23 >> I was about to say, there's 82 games, there's a training camp, it's a grind.
01:27 >> Right. >> And
01:27 there's a difference playing for your country.
01:28 But just the pride, and you're like, I wish he could transfer that to the Mavericks.
01:32 It's unrealistic to do that for 82 games.
01:34 But it's a pure joy to watch him play with such joy.
01:37 >> Yep.
