00:00 - Hey Reggie, I remember a long time ago, you know,

00:03 when the Clippers had the 50 point loss to the Mavs,

00:06 you had like a very interesting and grounded perspective

00:08 on taking it all in.

00:10 And I remember last season,

00:11 you said you credited some of the perspective you have

00:14 in the game towards watching the show Cobra Kai,

00:17 which I thought was very interesting.

00:19 Is there, are there other things like that

00:21 that you've taken into account

00:23 that you watch other shows or movies,

00:24 or you're like, oh, I could use that

00:26 into my perspective on the court?

00:29 - Really just thinking, I mean, I like to watch shows.

00:32 I like to read really.

00:33 As of lately, I fell in love with the Queens gamut

00:38 with that season, really just as tough as it is

00:42 and different aspects.

00:44 I mean, dealing with the way she thinks

00:47 and how she gets that mindset

00:48 is not necessarily something I condone,

00:50 but just continue to work on yourself mentally,

00:54 try to put in those hours.

00:55 For me, that's what I kind of took away,

00:58 the concept that she got so well

00:59 'cause she put in her 40,000 hours

01:01 to be a pro mentally so quickly.

01:03 So I'm continuing to just trying to watch film.

01:05 I'm continuing to try to think through the game,

01:07 replay things, even as a tough moment yesterday,

01:09 going to Miami, I had to replay it back in my head,

01:11 had to go watch it and just try to find ways to be better.

01:14 So I'm always just trying to find ways

01:17 to take concepts from books and apply it into life.
