I mean being on the court with him Probably on the defensive end. Yeah, you know, I knew who I was facing and I knew the night before You know, I had to get some rest. What was going through your head when you saw MJ coming up on the schedule? Oh, you look at that shit when they bring out the schedule in the summertime And they put them goddamn schedules out you look and you put that their mark on Chicago Jesus The night before as you asked me shit man. It's sleepless nights, man. Can't sleep night before the game I mean can't sleep a day of the game man I mean get just to get prepared you don't want to get embarrassed and And you know this month. I don't know how to stop coming at you. Just keep calm Keep that damn foot on your throat man, and he just keep coming. I mean so we had a lot of trash talk It was epic man. I mean we had some great plat. I like to think that when you went Great teams like that and you play other good great players helps you. Oh, definitely You're not so and two for the star struck part of it You know you just said when you play Mike, you can't sleep the next night You're still looking forward to playing whoever you're playing against but that you know that I don't want to call it nervous But could you ready that nervousness before tonight kind of subside when we want a seven-game losing streak? We were a seven-game losing streak and Rudy T comes into the locker room And we have this team meeting and he and he's starting to meet but he's on me for the first half an hour He's not saying anybody else is playing poorly and Vernon gets something else. Listen, I'm not gonna have you talk to Kenny like that Everybody in here has had its contributed to these and I was shocked and he got in Rudy's face and said you're not gonna Get on him like that and that's what I knew. I was like that guy has my back His personality was so different off the court sometime that it was on the court And he was the only guy when we played Chicago We have success actually against the Bulls in the regular season. We only played in regular season But we have some success because he tried to fight Michael Jordan every time a player is talented as he was unpredictable Who is Bruno Maxwell? They called me Mad Max He'd take a challenge he was by my credit and we were playing Chicago for the first time and I've never heard two guys Call someone a black MF as much as very Lock room for the game. I make myself cry but I just wanted that Mike so bad I mean you just have to do some shit that to him try to do some shit to him that nobody else ever did to try to get him Off his square. You got to be a little different. You can't you can't go in that motherfucker game like Pass it and and like that motherfucker he can he can sense if you scared I just tried to do a shit that nobody else would do to him and you was somebody that that got under his skin You didn't give a fuck It's a different thickness in the ad when you walk in the gym with Michael Jordan You know, you can it's a different vibe all the whole day, you know You know I'm on the edge of shit mad as shit every time you go to the goddamn left line over there.
