00:00Mr. Marbury, how are you? TMZ Sports here. So, we have to ask you, right, your son is
00:06now playing for Cal. Can we see him, you know, eventually making his way into the NBA?
00:13That's what he desires to do, but at the end of the day, it's all about his education.
00:18So you're not for him going to the NBA? Of course I'm for him going to the NBA.
00:22Okay, I'm like, just making sure. Of course.
00:24Okay, so do you think that the Knicks can pursue, you know, well, should pursue Giannis
00:28or can they win a championship with their current roster?
00:31I think we can win a championship with our team, but I do think that, you know, adding
00:35pieces is always something that helps. We're a team that just now changed some guys from
00:43last year, so we're still trying to improve and we're still trying to get better. So,
00:49we'll welcome all top players, all top 75 players to come to New York as long as they
00:56can fit within the system.
00:57Right, I love that. And I see these glasses, right? Tell us about your new venture.
01:03Well, these new glasses, Camelo, are a new wave of the technology. It's like technology
01:12that we've never seen on earth before that's been created out of China, but manufactured
01:17in Japan. Company in America, obviously, but I think these glasses, they give something
01:24completely different as far as, like, eyewear, where people can do something different with
01:30the glasses as opposed to just playing music or changing the tint is the new thing. Like,
01:38you can change it, but ours, you can change different colors.
01:41Oh, wow. I can see it changing right there.
01:43Yeah, so, you know, us being able to change colors and transition within 0.9 seconds is
01:51completely different than everyone else who's doing what it is that they're doing because
01:55there are companies that have transition lenses, but they don't have color changing and they
01:59can't slide to tint.
02:01So, lastly, buying an NBA team. We heard you talk about that just a few weeks ago. Where
02:07are you in that process? Is that something that's actually going to happen or is just
02:10calm right now?
02:11No, I said I'm in position with the people that I work with now to be in a position to
02:16buy a team. There are people who want to buy a team in Asia, in China, around the world,
02:22different people, different parts of the world who want to do that, and that is something
02:26that I would love to do as far as a businessman and a person who plays basketball who wants
02:32to continue to contribute to basketball.
02:34I love that for you. So, when can we see you announcing your new ownership?
02:37Oh, there's no announcement. There's no announcement. There's no, I'm not misleading. This is all
02:44a work in progress. I'm not in a position to say what we're going to do or what we want
02:50to do, but there are people who want to do that.
