00:00I mean, I haven't even given that much thought, though, to be honest with you.

00:05This has been the longest season I've played in a while, it's been six years.

00:10So I'm looking at the big picture in a way that I probably was not ready to look at in

00:15my early 20s or late 20s.

00:18The way technology is today, the way I take care of my body every day, and the way I have

00:23the opportunity to learn more about my body as I get into my 30s, I'm appreciating.

00:30And my mind continues to get sharper, my physical tools are obviously naturally going to deteriorate,

00:36which I can appreciate too.

00:38So adding new skill sets or adding new nuances to my game where I can be successful at this

00:44level, especially going against a more athletic league or a faster league.

00:47And you got me over here speaking like I'm 38 already, but yeah, at 32 right now, I just

00:53feel like the sky's the limit and I have an opportunity to be on a special team that

00:57can be one of the teams that dominates in this era.

01:01And that's what I've been trying to figure out for the past few years of how to be on

01:04a great team, be in an organization where I'm trusted and also we're able to succeed

01:09and fail together and do it in a way where we still have each other's backs and no one's

01:16giving up on the dream or the goal.

01:18Our goal is still to win a championship, that's been number one.

01:22And for me, that's why I play basketball every year, it's just to be able to continue to

01:25get better but also to compete for championships.
