 Michael Grady here, Yes Network, different set of circumstances, doing this from home, but talking to one of your favorite nests, Gary Temple joining me right now. GT, how you doing, my man? Doing well, man, besides needing a barber to tighten this stuff up. Doing pretty well. You know, my fiance and I are trying to stay sane, occupying our time. Our little puppy, our dog, got spayed so we don't have a reason to go outside. She can't walk for another couple of days. So we just on the bike, you know, we got a little white bike they sent us and, you know, just drinking water, keeping our social distance from, you know, if we do go outside, keeping keeping our distance from everybody. Especially the, you know, the barber situation, man, I, it's not that often just let it grow for a, for a period of weeks, man. So we'll see how long it gets, how messy it gets for real. Exactly. Exactly. You still like to be at the first line up to UI. It's good. It's good. I'm trying, man. How, how surreal has this whole situation been? It's been very surreal. First time I've ever been in a situation like this and, you know, I'm not, I'm not an old guy in general, but, you know, NBA standards, I'm a pretty old guy. So I've never seen anything like this, never been in a situation like this. Pretending to the world or just obviously are the NBA in general. So this is something very new and obviously very fluid. So we're just taking it one day at a time. What have you been doing to like occupy your time? I think situations like this, we really realize how many hours there are in a day. Fact, fact. So I would be honest. I've been sleeping a good amount, but also trying to take on a new task. You know, I've actually started practicing for the LSAT. You know, I'm a person that has thought about going to law school when I finish playing. And what, you know, what, what, what's not a best, a better time than now to, you know, be able to put in three, four hours a day of studying for a test that I'm going to get into law school. So that's what I'm, that's what I'm doing right now. That's, man. That's, that's wild. That's wild. So how long has this been, how long has this been on your mind? We talked a lot about, you know, family, your legacy. You'll be, I'll talk to your brothers, like how long has this been on your mind? Honestly, I've thought about it over the past, like three years probably. My dad kind of put a seed in my head. I was thinking more MBA. I have a, my undergrad degree in business. So I was thinking more MBA. And my dad was telling me how law school is, you know, something that's pretty prestigious, having a law degree and just teaches you to think a different way. And I've always been a pretty big time debater. I'm very literal. So when I get into arguments, I'm the type of person that you probably just want to stop arguing with it because I'm going to pick every single thing that you say. So, and then, you know, getting into the space of watching that movie, just mercy and talking to Brian Stevenson, having a conversation with him. And a few of the lawyers that I admire, just understanding how much of an impact you can have, you know, with a law degree and a lot of different ones, you don't necessarily even have to practice law, but just having that knowledge is something that intrigues me. GT, in the meantime, while we wait for play to resume, what's it been like trying to stay active while confined at the same time? Right. So we're blessed enough to have a little backyard so we can get a little sun. But you know, the team has done a great job of providing us with a bike. Nice bike. So getting my cardio in here. I actually hate this bike right now as much as I'm riding. And also we got, they gave us some jump ropes, some bands, weight, a dumbbell right there. So, and they're sending us workouts every day. So, and best believe, Dan Meehan and Dan LaBurg, our strength coaches, they can find ways to make sure you stay in shape wherever you are. You could be on the moon with nothing and they're gonna find ways to make sure you stay in shape. So, the workouts are like hard to have for them. But they definitely get it out of the picture. Okay, let's do, let's look at fridges real quick. And I was gonna ask what is one thing that you need to have food wise on? I'm gonna show my fridge real quick. The eggs, we got three in the household, Beyonce, my stepson, where you see the eggs are like. I see the eggs are crazy. Everybody was grabbing toilet paper, we were grabbing eggs. I see. So, eggs are something big for us. We kind of have just the, the most bit of a lot of different stuff in there. Eggs, food, packaged food that we got delivered, good amount of bread. You know, DeAndre would be happy about the veganese I have. I want to make something, but also eggs. Actually, why can't you just pull with these out? She about to make something. Tell us, tell us about the dog in the dog's name. Yeah, Basil. Come here, girl. She's a, she's a chocolate lad, an English chocolate lad. And yeah, she actually just got spayed. So she's really calm right now, relaxed. And usually, she always is. You know, she's extra cuddly right now, as my fiance just said, yeah. But she's always very chill, relaxed. She's the perfect dog. We got lucky. Yeah, I'm telling you. She does this one for the time. Except when she's outside, except when she's outside trying to chase her squirrel running after the stick or trying to jump into the water. Other than that, she's pretty, pretty laid back and chill. So it's great. That's awesome. How old? She's a year and two or three months. She was born here a year and three months. Yeah. Okay, man. It's great. It's great having a dog around. Okay, I'm going to introduce you to fam real quick. Hold on real quick. Step son. And he's doing online classes right now. So, Ty, Ty, say what's up the gear temple? Let me, let's do a game, real cool. Let's play. So I know you recognize this right here. Hold on. Check this out. This Oh, so my fiance is right there. Say hello. Hello. Hey, how you doing? So the goal on the door right there, we don't, this is the only exercise that we can get in. So let's play. I guess your next teammate. All right. So I want you to guess he's going to imitate a teammate. You tell us which teammate it is. Oh, oh, and one should be have you been able to communicate with your teammates? What's it like communicating with your guys? Yeah, we have a group chat. We have a group chat. And, uh, you know, we've been talking. Uh, we've obviously, when we first heard about the four players that were diagnosed, you know, diagnosed with it, we obviously can reach out to them talking to them. But honestly, just keeping everything light, you know, sitting a lot of the memes that are going around a lot of stuff. The internet is undefeated right now. So all these different type of cartoons type things and just things that are on there and there just something to something to do to keep everybody's, uh, you know, uh, mind happy and people laughing. I think it's something that's important in these times. So having a group chat and obviously a lot of the other chats is, uh, something that we need to continue to do. Lastly, what's your message to the fans? Um, stick with us. Uh, first and foremost, I want y'all to be safe, continue to take this very seriously. I, um, you know, I've had friends that have, that have had the virus. Um, I've had a family member. Um, so make sure you take this very seriously just because we're younger. Um, if you're, if you're under 50 years old, just because you're younger and maybe be able to withstand it. That doesn't mean that we can be careless. Think about the people that, uh, are at risk, um, for tougher diseases. Uh, think about your parents and grandparents. So let's remember to be very conscious of that, be very smart and be very considerate of everybody else. I appreciate you, GT. Thanks so much, brother. Appreciate you, man.
