00:00I've played in the NBA longer than he's been alive
00:03So, you know, he understands the nuances of it as far as just being around the game
00:07But now he's a man and it's time for him to learn and get better with that
00:25I want to coach the Lakers
00:27I want to coach the team
00:29I don't want to dispel anything
00:31I don't
00:32I want to become a great coach in the NBA
00:35And I want to win championships
00:37And I want my players to maximize their careers
00:40That's all I f***ing care about
00:41It's different by him being a first-time coach and head coach
00:46So that's a little different
00:48But the principles that he was...
00:50And the schemes that he wanted to bring into our organization
00:55Just kind of stood out to me
00:57Everyone in this building is cognizant of the fact that he's almost 40
01:02But, you know, when we watch the pickup games
01:06He's going full tilt
01:08If he's on the court, he's going, you know
01:10So, in some ways, I think sometimes we maybe have to save him from himself
01:14That's remarkable
01:15That's unheard of
01:16And, you know, you gotta tip your heart off to a guy like LeBron
01:20For able to, you know, keep his nose clean
01:23Stay focused
01:27Be able to work with your son
01:28I think that's one of the greatest things
01:30That a father could ever hope for or wish for
01:32So it's pretty cool
01:33It's awesome
01:35It's historic, it's powerful
01:37Just trying to keep that routine up and being myself
01:41But also, you know, taking the time to tune out all the noise
01:45And tune out all the people that, you know, don't think I should be here
01:50Obviously, the main focus is staying healthy, staying on the floor
01:54The rest, as far as individual accolades and things like that
01:57I just let it take care of itself
01:58As accomplished as you've been as a player defensively
02:01What parts of that game do you think you don't get enough appreciation for?
02:05All of it
02:07The expectation is the championship
02:09And so it's my job, it's our staff's job, it's Rob's job
02:12It's all of us to deliver a championship-caliber team
02:18That's what I signed up for
