[DJ Wells]

We love a humble KB and we was at the game, man.

[Trey Young]

Oklahoma.

[DJ Wells]

You see the vibe?

[Freaky Mike]

Oklahoma is lit. But, like, give us like a little background of you growing up here, though, man. What's the cause, you know, I had to ask my question. Where do you know what schools is at?

[Trey Young]

Yeah, yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

You know what I'm saying? So how was it Shout out to the demographic? How did you even pick the school that you went to for high school?

[Trey Young]

I mean, really, the school I went to just basically was because of my school. I mean, where I lived at.

[Freaky Mike]

Okay.

[Trey Young]

And so the district that I lived at, that was going to go and to Norman north anyway, so that's kind of how I picked it. But, I mean, there's only two here in Norman that I would have went to. Okay.

[Freaky Mike]

Because, you know, I was just saying to ask you that because, you know, nowadays kids automatically. Well, once you get, like, I don't know how, if you was ranked high or whatever, but they want to leave, like, they surround the areas.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, bro.

[Freaky Mike]

Always talk about, like, staying where you live, basically, and build something in your hometown. So.

[Trey Young]

Well, that was the thing, like my senior year. So that's my junior year. Year even. All the way through was a thought that I was going to go to Montburg and play for Coach Boyle down there. So I was going to go down there and play for him. My mom went down there and looked at the campus and everything. But after my junior year, I went in one Peach jam that summer, and I ended up feeling like I didn't need to leave to go be a McDonald's All American. And there it is. Be able to have. I mean, all the schools really want me because I had all the offers at that point. So I didn't really feel like I needed to leave to go get everything that I wanted. You know, I'm saying I knew if I stayed here and it worked out the way it did that I would have a lot more love staying home. So, I mean, I think I made the right decision for sure.

[DJ Wells]

Man, listen, you talking about that PJ and that Squiddy was crazy.

[Trey Young]

Oh, yeah, sure. That was. That was. That was an unbelievable time.

[Freaky Mike]

Now, did y' all rig that or was that organically? As I said?

[Trey Young]

No, that was. That's. That shit was organic. We took. We took a lot of Ls, our 16U when me and Mike were 16, we played up and played 17 and was getting our heads beat in a lot. We played. We played a few games. I mean, we played Houston Hoops with fox. We played St. Louis Eagles with Jason Tatum when we were 16. I think we lost that game, but we was always competing and we even Georgia Stars won it that year with Wendell Carter and Udoka Azabuki. They were really good. But then our 17 year just felt so easy. But we were all the same age and some guys were playing up at that point, and so we just felt like we could win no matter who we played.

[Freaky Mike]

Okay.

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Bishop]

I wanted to talk about high school hoops here. So when I first tapped in here, when we first got here, you know, I talked junk to everybody. I talked to your little bro, I talked to everybody. And they told me, yo, Junior, shout out to Timbo. Y' all made it all the way to states. Y' all made it all the way to state finals. Y' all had a squad and y' all lost on a last second shot.

[Trey Young]

Mm.

[Bishop]

Like, can you go through that game, tell me what happened? Because they told me you was averaging like around 23, 25.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, well, that. Actually, I was averaging like 30.

[Bishop]

Oh, my 30. I don't know which one short, who shorted it.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, no, that was my. That was my sophomore year. That was my sophomore year. I was averaging like 20. I went from 10 points to 25 to like 35 to 42. So.

[DJ Wells]

Bro.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, but that. No, bro, that, like my junior year. That hurt. I ain't gonna lie. Like, that was my. Probably my best chance to win state. We had a. I mean, Lindy Waters, who, you may know, who's in the league right now, he's a shooter in the league, found his way into the league, but went to Oklahoma State, was really good. I had gotten suspended that year and missed most of the year and came back during the playoffs and we were winning all year and we got the playoffs and literally was beating everybody pretty bad. And the last game, I mean, we should have won, to be honest with you. And it's just crazy how it happened. Like, a kid, back door got backdoored on my team for the last second and kid made a layup and I swear it was like, you can't go back, obviously.

[Freaky Mike]

He said you lost to a bunch of football.

[Bishop]

Yeah, he said, football players, man.

[Trey Young]

Trust me, bro. We played them 10 times, we winning nine, you know what I'm saying? It's one of them. You know what I'm saying? The team that the championship game was the semifinals, like, everybody thought us versus team called Mustang, who had won in state the year before. It was us versus them in semis and we beat them by 30. And we were so. I mean, we thought we had won it. You know what I'm saying?

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

The next day, like, them games is back to back to back. So you play the next day. I mean, if you're not ready and locked in, you can lose. And that. That'd be your season, and that's how your. Your junior year can finish. So it sucked. But it's. It's. That's. That's something that those. That's what sucks about it the most, is those guys hold on to it. Like, it's.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

NBA Finals, like, you know what I'm saying?

[DJ Wells]

And you never gonna live in there no matter what you do.

[Bishop]

I was asking you that because obviously you live here. From here, you're around. You just went to a high school game. I grew up in my hometown. I would live there. I coached there. Like. And all my friends talk about them moments when we played North Central or Northwest, and I'm like, dang, you lost the state finals to somebody who plays football? He probably. When you walk in, he probably like, yeah, but when I backdoor, I beat him in a state he ain't.

[Trey Young]

I got him up out of here.

[Bishop]

You know, crazy for no reason, man.

[Trey Young]

Are you telling. I. I ain't gonna say dude name because I don't wanna. You know what I'm saying too much. But yeah, we was playing. I had some runs. Like, I had runs in my. My gym in here during the finals. And one of the. One of the guys that's in here, I mean, I'm the only calling certain guys that to come up here, you got to be able to hoop. So he could hoop. And we played him my second to last game my senior year, and he had a pretty good game. I mean, his team was way better than mine. I mean, I killed them. And I played. They ended up winning the game and we ended up playing in here. We started talking and he started talking trash. One of my friends, right? And I don't like that. So we was. We was playing fives and he. I ended up having to start talking a little bit and we started getting into it and he brought up how he had 35 and beat us in the game. Yeah, I said, I looked at them, Daniels. I said, which year? I said, that year. I want to get ready to play in the year. Or that one, like, you know what I'm saying? And it's like, I didn't know which.

[Freaky Mike]

Trey pop your shit.

[DJ Wells]

No, no.

[Trey Young]

I mean, that's it, you know, like. But that's the same feeling, like, you know what I'm saying? Like, it's you playing against the guys that you grew up against if they win, you know what I'm saying?

[DJ Wells]

You'll never live it down, no matter What y' all do?

[Trey Young]

So they gonna. They gonna hold on to that forever?

[DJ Wells]

Now, listen, you talk about going from 25 to 30 to 40. When did you know you was nice, man?

[Trey Young]

I don't even think like that. You know what I'm saying? I don't. You know what I'm saying? Like, I. I really. I don't really think like that. Like, even when I'm in games, like, I'll get like 35 and 15 and stuff, and I'll, like. I'll be in the moment in the game. I won't feel it, but, like, after the game, I'll be like, damn. Sometimes I pinch myself still. Like, it don't. Some stuff I do in the games that haven't been done before. It's like. It's pinch me moments. Like, I don't. I don't, like, get too excited or expect it or like, Trey. You know what I'm saying?

[Freaky Mike]

Trey, I love that humble shit. No, Trey, no. Look now, fuck that. No, when you step in the garden.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

That'S okay.

[Trey Young]

For sure.

[Freaky Mike]

I thought you was talking about high school. I know nothing about. No, we just watched you on tv.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, but that's. That.

[Bishop]

Yeah, I was his teammate.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

No, that's. I mean, you definitely gotta. I mean, I'll have fun with this shit. You know what I'm saying? Like, you don't have fun with it. It's not. Ain't no point in playing it. And I feel like that's. That's when I play my best, is when I'm having fun. And I mean, as much as you see me talking trash, it's just because I'm the one ending it. Like, I really. I really would love to just hoop, like, and just have fun and engage with the crowd and. You know what I'm saying? Have fun and win. But, like, you see me engage with players, it's because they usually are saying something or they'll say something slick to the ref that I hear, and I'm like, you know what I'm saying? You know, it'll get me going. But you know what I'm saying, You gotta be competitive. You can't make it to this level and not be competitive.

[Freaky Mike]

Nah, for sure.

[Bishop]

I know we gonna go to college, but 42 points a game, bruh. Like, bro, I thought I was killing, bro. My senior year in high school, I averaged was about 25. I was on a really good team. 42, bro. Who was on your team?

[Freaky Mike]

Well, what was you saying to them? I mean, set this screen. We gotta Break down the plays. Was it ISO. Tr.

[Trey Young]

No, I mean, it wasn't. It was a little bit of both. Like, I was. I played in transition. Like, I played fast. So if I get the rebound. Shit. I mean, I. I looked at it like this. Like, I'm a senior. I'm playing against the guys that are some freshmen, juniors, sophomores. Like, there's no reason they should be on the court with me. You know what I'm saying? So anytime when I was a senior, it was like, I mean, I know who I'm going against, but I know they're not at my level and they could be younger than me. So it's like, this is the time for me to, like, go ahead and just do what I do and just put on a show. Like, I'll get rebounds. I'll go coast to coast, get layups. Like, I'm not worried about a big blocking my shot. There may be bigs, but I'm. I'm smart enough to know to get into his body and use the glass. Like, even at my senior year, like, I was. I good touched around the basket. So it was never, like, never hard for me. I didn't average 10 assists. I probably averaged five or six assists. But I mean, I was still. I mean, I had the ball in my hand a lot too, and that helps. But, yeah, I was able. I just thought differently whenever it came to these type of things.

[Freaky Mike]

Was it just so easy for you, though?

[Bishop]

Like, they ain't I got a shot clock.

[Trey Young]

Nah.

[Bishop]

Like. Cause in Indiana, they would have held the ball on me. You would have never got no. 42.

[Trey Young]

But that's what I'm saying. We was winning. So, like, we would be winning games. Like, we would be winning. And you can't really hold it. I mean, unless you just.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah, it's pointless to hold it when you.

[Trey Young]

When you down. Yeah, when you down. You know what I'm saying?

[Bishop]

I done seen it.

[Trey Young]

I done seen it too. Are just scared. They can't outscore you. They'll just hold the ball and it's nasty work. Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

So, yeah, we need shot clocks in all high school basketball.

[Trey Young]

That's a fact.

[Bishop]

Yeah, for sure.

[DJ Wells]

Make players better, obviously. We know you went to Oklahoma. Was there any chance that any other school could have got you up out of here?

[Trey Young]

For sure. Okay. For sure. For sure. I mean, I almost went to Kansas if Devontae would have left. So the year I went to my freshman year, I was going in. Devontae Graham was a senior at Kansas.

[DJ Wells]

Shout to Graham.

[Trey Young]

But even my Visits like my junior and senior year, Coach Self was telling me that devontae and so Frank Mason was a senior, so he was leaving, but devontae was gonna leave with him. And that's why I waited so long to like commit because I really wanted to see if devontae was gonna. Was gonna leave and. Cause if he would have left, I probably. I probably would have went to Kansas just because I wanted to be in a blue blood kind of like going to Montverd and you know what I'm saying? Like at a high school, I felt like if I would have went to Kansas or Kentucky, I mean, I just. I didn't. I wasn't ready to commit whenever Quad A was ready to commit to go to Kentucky. So yeah, that's the reason why I didn't go there. And so, yeah, I mean, Kentucky, Kansas, man. But I stayed home. I mean, I thought about it hard, but I think I made the best decision for sure.

[Bishop]

Yeah. Like just thinking, playing devil's advocate, let's say you went to Kentucky or Kansas, you think you would have had the same success that you had as a freshman?

[Trey Young]

I feel like I would have been looked at the same, but my numbers may not have looked the same. You know what I'm saying?

[Freaky Mike]

I think you could have did that at Kansas.

[Trey Young]

I mean, maybe, maybe.

[Bishop]

I mean, who went to Kansas?

[Trey Young]

I mean, it was just. It had been me, devontae. They had Lagerrel, Vicks, Fee, Fee Makailou, partner. And then Udoke as a bookie. He was still there.

[DJ Wells]

Oh yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

You would have got your shit off.

[Bishop]

He would have killed.

[Trey Young]

He would have.

[DJ Wells]

Number of shooters on the perimeter too.

[Bishop]

Yeah. I ain't gonna lie though. I think it was perfect for you to go to Oklahoma. It don't. It ain't like. It just makes sense like what you did in college, bro. The journey, for sure. Your college, your freshman year is one of the top freshman years of all time. Like Kevin Durant, melo Mello, number one. Cause he won a chip. But like you KDB's y' all all 80, y' all all right. There's like. It's unbelievable number.

[Trey Young]

And I think the thing that's. I mean, the difference between me and. They just won. You know what I'm saying? They won. You know, AD won a championship.

[Freaky Mike]

I think you and B's Bees, they was okay. Yeah, they had a cool record. Yeah. Yeah.

[Trey Young]

I don't know who. I think national freshman players of the year. I can't remember at the time. I think two had done it before me was kd. And who was the other guy?

[Freaky Mike]

Biggest guy. Freshman year.

[Trey Young]

No.

[Bishop]

No, but he didn't. National player of the year.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

Who won an 07 then? Cause KD is my class. KD's 067.

[Bishop]

I don't know who was national player of the year.

[Trey Young]

I'm telling you, there's only been. There was only two, or maybe I would have been the second one behind KD to win. Fresh.

[Freaky Mike]

Damn. I thought Beez won it.

[Trey Young]

Beas should have won it, but Beasley should have won it.

[Freaky Mike]

He was 26 and 12.

[DJ Wells]

Numbers was in 20 and 20.

[Freaky Mike]

Did you have that?

[Trey Young]

Of course.

[Freaky Mike]

You had the green light. But did you think it was going to be like that when you got to Oklahoma?

[Trey Young]

Nah. I mean, I knew I would have the ball in my hands. I knew I'd have, like, a certain green light for sure. Being here in Norman and Coach Krueger, like, our relationship, we had. Yeah, but I mean, you obviously have to, like, you have to. You have to gain that trust and gain that respect. So, like, with the way I played, I mean, in practice and even in the games at the beginning of the year, like, I mean, helped me kind of, like, establish how the rest of the season was going to go, too. Okay.

[Freaky Mike]

Cause I was going to ask you.

[DJ Wells]

When you got comfortable in college, crazy moments in college. I got to ask you, what's the craziest game, you vs. Oklahoma State or you vs. TCU? Because them is two High Life factory, Troy Young games.

[Trey Young]

No, for sure. I mean, I probably liked playing TCU better. I think I got the. And you see, like, even stuff like this, like, I. I mean, playing TCU, I think I scored 82 points against them in two games.

[Bishop]

He disrespectful.

[Freaky Mike]

That's what solidifies your draft.

[Trey Young]

I think that's. I think that's the most points somebody scored on.

[Bishop]

Was D. Ban there?

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

Hey, you a dickhead. He's out of pocket.

[Bishop]

Shout. Shout out to.

[Freaky Mike]

Bro.

[Bishop]

He from Indiana. Shout out to D. He was the.

[Trey Young]

Best player on that team, though.

[Bishop]

He was.

[Trey Young]

They had him and Jaylen Fisher.

[Freaky Mike]

Yep.

[Trey Young]

I don't know if y' all know Jay. Y' all know James Fisher.

[Bishop]

That's a D pain. But I just. My fault, brother.

[DJ Wells]

That was a crazy stretch.

[Bishop]

My fault, bro.

[Freaky Mike]

That sound like your easiest matchup in college. Who was your toughest matchup that you remember? You have a duel with somebody.

[Trey Young]

I remember going to Wichita State. That was a tough game. They played. They had Landry Shammit.

[DJ Wells]

Landry.

[Trey Young]

Landry Shammit. They had. Austin Reeves, came off the bench, who ended up coming to ou, like, the next year. Yeah. So they had. They had. They had a couple guys. They were number three in the country at the time. And so we went to their place and won. And that was the craziest game, probably. And that was tough. Toughest game, probably.

[DJ Wells]

So what's that moment like in college when you realize, all right, the league really want me. Like, I know I got interest, but they like, nah, I'm damn near lottery. What's that moment like when you, like, damn, I could really go to the NBA, like, right now.

[Trey Young]

I mean, it's hard not to think about it. You know what I'm saying? It's hard not to think about the future and your dreams about to be becoming true because you still got a season. You still got the rest of the Big 12 and the NCAA Tournament, a long tournament run, hopefully play. So it was tough, but it was like. It was. It was kind of hard to, like, not. Not look at it, not deal with. I mean, I'm. They were talking about it all the time on espn.

[DJ Wells]

You a block. First take with it.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, it was. It was crazy. But then you got. No. I mean, it's. It was hard, but, like. I mean, I feel like I handled it the way I. The best way I could. And, I mean, it was. It was. It was. It was good. It was good.

[DJ Wells]

Before y' all was teammates, what was your first time like? Like, really tapping in with Trey.

[Bishop]

I seen him. I seen him in high school, obviously, because I was. I'm an AAU head. We all AAU heads here. So I know him in high school, and I knew him and Michael Porter Jr. I thought Michael Porter Jr. Was the best player in that class at that time. He was crazy. And then seeing him with Brandon Roy and all that, so I kind of kept tabs on it. And Jamal was one of. You know, Jamal, one of my old heads. So he used to tell me about him. But when I seen him at Oklahoma, I'm like, man, hold on, man. How is this dude doing this? I'm like, you know, in my head, I'm being a competitor now. I'm like, why they don't do this? Why they don't trap him? Why they don't trap? And I'm watching they trying to trap him, and he running by everybody. Then he shoot from half court. And I remember. I don't know what game it was, but you, like, stumbled, and then you still shot the ball. And I said, hold on. He playing differently like, he what he want and he making them. And I was like, he gonna be different. And then when he got drafted by the Hawks, obviously I was. I'm a Hawks. That's me. I'm like, damn, they got him. I gotta see what's up. And then you got did the summer league, and I'm like, yeah, it's a little different in the league. And then he got in his rookie year. I was like, nah, he was just practicing. He a little different. Like, I was like, he different. And I was like, yo, he just different.

[Trey Young]

I appreciate it.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

Nah, see, I mean, that was. That was crazy talking about me and Jeff.

[Bishop]

Oh, we can see. So when I came to the team, like, obviously now he's a star. Like, to me, like, after his rookie year, he was great. Yeah, he had a great rookie year. Second year, I'm like, yeah, he a star. I get traded, like, in the middle of the year. I think that was your second year, right? Double check. And I'm like, yo, chill, chill, chill.

[Trey Young]

You got that jersey still.

[Bishop]

Cheers. Trey, we don't get you the real jersey.

[Trey Young]

I've been asking for a minute. I know.

[Bishop]

Jersey is on the way, bro. No. So when I got to the team, I watched him play, and I'm like, to me, the first thing that stuck out, I knew he was a really good passer, but his floater, I'm like, he never miss floaters. Everybody talk about him shooting from half court. I'm watching it as a fan. I'm like, this dude just never missed floaters.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah.

[Bishop]

So I'm like, damn, I can learn a little something from this dude. So I'm looking at how he shoot him. He's shooting him from half. I'm like, okay, I'm about to start doing that. But I didn't know I only had a 19 minute. I didn't know I only had 19 minutes. I could do all this shout out to LP. So in my head, I'm like, I'm about to do all this at 19 minutes. And I had that same light, Kev reddish, like, bring that over here. But nah, he was so dynamic in the pick and roll and his ability to score. And obviously he can shoot the ball from a crazy distance. And I was like, nah, Atlanta got one. Like, it's over with. They found a superstar since Dominique, you know what I mean? I'm like, he here and I've been right.

[DJ Wells]

I guess the movie to see this.

[Bishop]

Football season is him in theater. September 19th. Produced by Jordan Peele and directed by Justin Tippen.

[DJ Wells]

This sports horror mashup stars Marlon Wayne plays Isaiah White, the greatest football player.

[Bishop]

Of all time with rings to prove it. Tariq Withers plays Cameron Cade, an up and comer and protege.

[DJ Wells]

Cam gets the offer of a lifetime when he's called upon by Isiah to trade at his compound. Things get weird fast and Isiah's training methods are a bit intense.

[Freaky Mike]

This movie gives a whole new meaning to God, family and football.

[Bishop]

Marlon Waynes is terrifying and Tariq Withers proves he has what it takes to be the goat.

[Freaky Mike]

Me and your auto isn't all what it's cracked up to be in him and begs the question how far will you go?

[Bishop]

To be the greatest of all time.

[DJ Wells]

You have to be willing to sacrifice.

[Bishop]

Everything him his theater September 19 stop.

[Freaky Mike]

Seemed like you was comfortable right away, though, averaging the dub.

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

Know what I mean? Your first year, was you comfortable right away or it took you a minute to get adjusted?

[Trey Young]

I. I mean, I like to say it took me a minute to get adjusted.

[Freaky Mike]

Nah, don't stop, bro. These things are sad. I'm better than y' all because I feel like, bro, why I'm saying that to you is I feel like I know I'm jumping ahead, but I feel like they'd be disrespecting you.

[Trey Young]

They do?

[Bishop]

Yes, bro, they do.

[Freaky Mike]

You know, I mean.

[Trey Young]

But. I mean, for sure. But the only reason why I say that is because if you. If you sit back and look at it, I'm Irish. What, you averaged 20? I averaged 19. Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

I even looked at it today to make sure I was right before I.

[Trey Young]

Started, I was 20 and something. I was 20 and eight. Yeah, something like that. And then the next year, I averaged 29 and 9.

[Bishop]

It was easy, bro, you know what I'm saying?

[Trey Young]

But, like, in my mind, I'm Like, I should have been doing this shit my rookie year, you know what I'm saying?

[Bishop]

Like, okay, you were just trying to get. Acclimate. You came to a team with people on there, for sure.

[Trey Young]

For sure. But that's what I'm saying. I feel like that was the adjustment period. I felt like even though I did put up really good numbers as a. As a rookie, like, I was. And I played good. I played. Played well in spirits. Like, I felt like I could have obviously done better. Like, I. I mean, in my second year, I feel like I showed, like, what I could have done more, you know what I'm saying? And, I mean, I haven't averaged 29 since, but, like, it's like, I really. You know what I'm saying? I feel like if I. If I wanted to, like, I could. I could. You know what I'm saying?

[DJ Wells]

Thousand percent.

[Trey Young]

That's just not. Like, I just. And then that third year, we. We started getting. I mean, Gallo and Bogey and all those guys. So then we started getting some. My scoring went down, but, I mean, I feel like it took me a second to get adjusted.

[DJ Wells]

Listen, we gonna go back to the draft stuff. I wanna talk about the first time Nacho, you know what I'm saying, came in the locker room. What was that like, meeting him for the first time, especially as a teammate.

[Trey Young]

Oh, man, it was fun. It was dope. Cause a lot of people. A lot of people already knew about Jeff, like, Zach, and, you know what I'm saying? A lot of people in the Hawks organization already knew about Jeff. So, I mean, I did too. The Hawks weren't. Y' all weren't. Even when y' all were winning 60 games, y' all weren't on TV a lot. But, like, when you knew the Hawks, even though you al, Kyle Korver, you know what I'm saying? Like, the four, four or five main guys. So, I mean, you knew Jeff. So I was. I was eager to learn, eager to, like, pick his brain. I didn't know he'd be this funny and this, like, chill, laid back, you know what I'm saying? But I think even the way he was, like, just, I mean, interacting, it didn't have to be serious all the time. I mean, to learn something from somebody. So, I mean, even though he wasn't playing as much, like, even if he, like, didn't mean to give somebody advice or give me advice, like, it was like every now and then we'd be sitting on a plane, he sat in front of me. So, I mean, I was able to pick his brain every now and then and talk to him. So it's a cool ass. Cool ass vet for sure.

[Bishop]

Man, they were so young. Like, he had to be 21 at most.

[Trey Young]

20, 21 for sure. 21 at most.

[Bishop]

Yeah. And I was like 31, maybe 32. Oh, geez. And I'm like. I came in the locker room and obviously Travis was like, we gonna sign you to an extension. We want you to be the vet. I'm like, hell no. I'm like, I had made the playoffs my whole career, so that was the first time I'm going to a team. I never made the playoffs, so I'm like, nah, I'm gonna play in the playoffs. But then I got in the locker room, I'm like, they cool. Then ET Just happened to be there. Shout out to ET And ET Ruined my second Hawks experience. He talked to me every day about, hey, you ain't gonna like this. He wouldn't even let me like something. I'm like, they cool, bro.

[Trey Young]

He like, mm, mm, yup.

[Bishop]

They ain't gonna like that. You ain't gonna like that. I'm like, man, I'm a Hawk guy. He like, nah, you ain't gonna be a hawk guy after this. Hey, shout out to my dog, E.T. but nah, when I first met him, I knew. I'm like, damn if I can figure out how to be cool with him. He the franchise, right? So you gotta understand, I'm gonna be cool with him. And I'm Gonna make sure that I let him know I'm in his corner. I don't want him to think I'm coming back and think, like, I'm somebody. Like, nah, my time has been had. I'm coming here to support you. I'm gonna try to be your backup. I'm gonna try to do what we can do, and let's win. So that was my biggest thing when I met him. I just wanted to let him know I wasn't like, I'm not hating. I don't got a hate bone in my body. If you raw, I'm gonna say, no, you cold. If you not, I'm gonna be like, you cool, you cool. But if you cold, you cold. I'm gonna say, I was like, he cold. And I ain't have a hating bone in my body. We just didn't have enough time. Cause Covid happened. Yeah, we was on the team when Covid happened, and we was on a team when Vince Carter got his last shot this last game, baby.

[Trey Young]

That's crazy. Yeah, that's crazy. That was your last game with us.

[Bishop]

Yup.

[Freaky Mike]

I'm about to say you got. Tried to call me here, too.

[Bishop]

Nah, I was supposed to come back, so I was gonna sign back, and then I was like, I love lp. I mean, he cool. Me and LP cool. So I was like, I can't do that. Cause he just. It wasn't him. It came from upper management. I'm like, trey. I could play with Trey. Cause I seen him play with guards. I'm like, I could play with them. They was like, nah, we don't want that.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah, they want you to do your Dallas house.

[Bishop]

They was like, we want to play Cam. We want to play DeAndre. We want to play Kyle, Kevin. And I'm like, I can play with him sometimes. Like, if I'm having a moment.

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Bishop]

And he was like, nah. I was like, all right, I'm going to try something different then. Like, y' all ain't gonna even. Y' all give me a chance.

[Trey Young]

People don't understand that about the league, though. That's just like. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? When certain people above the players. You know what I'm saying? They want to go to a certain direction. And.

[Bishop]

And then I think Rondo might have came. So Doe had came, and I was like, I had went to the Celtics or whatever.

[Trey Young]

Doe was having the same type of feelings you was having. You know what I'm saying?

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

It's just part of it, bro. I appreciate you, though.

[Bishop]

Nah, man. You. You one of them. That's why every time we get on the show, we always talk about who don't get the most respect, who should be an All Star. This and I. Every time. Trey Young, better than him. Trey Young better than him. And it's the truth.

[Freaky Mike]

Why do you think that is, though, bro? You can talk your on here, Charge.

[Trey Young]

I think maybe that's why. You know what I'm saying? Like, I'm always just.

[Freaky Mike]

Cause your numbers is crazy, bro.

[Bishop]

Bro. Every year.

[DJ Wells]

Every single year.

[Bishop]

Every year, it's an All Star number, bro.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, I mean, I just think that's wise. Like, I'm not. I'm not super loud when it comes to. I mean, you may think I'm loud in certain highlights and the way I talk sometimes, but, like, when it comes to, like, boosting myself or something like. Like that, like, I'm not. I'm not. I'd like. I'd rather let my game do the talking and let everybody else speak for me. So no matter if I'm gotten the credit that I. I mean, or not, like, I'm just going to. I'd rather just live that way. And. And hopefully, I mean, it's gonna. Going to turn. It's gonna flip. So that's. That's my. My whole reason why I just. I stay the way I am.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, because they've tried to use every excuse. Let's try to say small market. No, that doesn't matter anymore because everybody's on TV and then they talk about the numbers. There's no way in hell you could talk about the numbers. Like we always say on our show, we like numbers next to each other. When we put them side by sides up, shit gets spooky.

[Freaky Mike]

Even the smaller guards.

[Bishop]

And I do it all the time. Yeah, I, like, put his trading numbers against his. Yeah, that's true every time. I mean, that's for me. I'm a Hawks fan. I'm a Hawks guy.

[Freaky Mike]

He is, bro.

[Trey Young]

Damn.

[Bishop]

I am so. He a Pacer fan.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, I. I know y' all gassy. You got Orlando this year.

[Bishop]

He like, who?

[Freaky Mike]

Trey, I. With you.

[Bishop]

You got Orlando.

[Freaky Mike]

I got the. Take me to the crib. Give me a drink. Took me on the field, see.

[Trey Young]

My.

[Freaky Mike]

Man off the court.

[Trey Young]

Trade.

[Freaky Mike]

My man's off the court. Magic info.

[Bishop]

Nah, we got a bet. Don't worry about that. We got a bet. Yeah, the bet already in. You had a bet, too, though.

[DJ Wells]

I do.

[Bishop]

No, you remember he was like. He said something about, like, the Pacers or whatever.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, he ain't trying to bet that.

[DJ Wells]

We haven't auditions this year, you know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? We just see how we gonna retool for the next year, you know what I'm saying? We just chilling this year for sure.

[Bishop]

Nah, but me and him definitely got a bet with Orlando.

[Freaky Mike]

Don't worry about. I wanted to ask, like, where is this tension with you and the Knicks, man? Where that come from?

[DJ Wells]

Ass. That's why. Talk about it.

[Trey Young]

No, it ain't even. I mean, I guess it started from the, the playoff series. And Yeah, I mean, first quarter with 10 minutes and to go, like, the whole crowd just started chanting like, F you. You know what I'm saying?

[Bishop]

Like, what's that like, man? Tell us about that.

[DJ Wells]

They do it at wrestling events, they.

[Trey Young]

Do it at football events. Yeah.

[Bishop]

What is that like? What is that like being the villain in New York and you beat them.

[DJ Wells]

That makes it even better.

[Trey Young]

I mean, it's, it's cool. I mean, I, I, I don't really. Thing is, I didn't grow up thinking I was gonna ever be the villain of, you know what I'm saying, in New York. But I mean, it is what it is. And yes. I mean, you just embrace it. I mean, when I walk around the city, I get a lot of love. So it's not like I, I feel scared to go around the city, you know what I'm saying? I feel like even if I pulled up to Dyckman, like, you know what I'm saying? We, There'll be some people out there that show love, you know what I'm saying? So they, they say all these things on camera, but when they see me in person, it's, it's a different way, you know what I'm saying? For the most part. So I don't really have too hard of feelings towards their fans.

[Bishop]

It's funny. Cause you, like, play into it, though. You can do wwe too, for sure. Cause he'll play into the dice. He rolled a dice, he scooped him up 7.

[Freaky Mike]

Let me get that out the gate.

[Bishop]

Side bet on that One bad part about it. If you see the clip, they, they.

[DJ Wells]

Pan to the fans afterwards.

[Trey Young]

They all like, yeah, yeah. My favorite part is how Jalen came up and dapped me after, like, Jalen, like, it was, it was a thing. When Dejounte was on our team, we was, he had everybody, we was all playing dice on the, on the, on the table. We making side bets, everything. And it was like, it was, it was funny. So we, I mean, it was, it was kind of like a thought in my head, like, so when I did it, I mean, I did it. I had thought about it before because I knew we was going to Vegas if we won. So I'm like, you, you roll dice when you go there, so that's hard, bro. And I like how Jalen came up because Jalen was always playing dice with us too. So I liked how we got to dap up after I did it too, man.

[DJ Wells]

Let's go back to it, man. Draft night. Obviously you make the decision killing in college. It's time to go to the pros. What was your draft process like and how was that whole situation? Like, obviously we know it was a big trade, but how was that for you?

[Trey Young]

I mean, it was, I mean, it was surprising, to be honest with you. Like, I thought I was going to Orlando at 6. The whole, the whole pre draft process, to be honest with you. I worked out for like four teams individually.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

And four. Four privileged. Nah.

[Freaky Mike]

Nah.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, some. I mean, you probably.

[Bishop]

Nah, I got hurt. So I only worked out for two. One and a half, I guess less than me.

[Trey Young]

So.

[Bishop]

But nah, not because I would have had about 18.

[Trey Young]

Completely been on a roll.

[Bishop]

That would have been on a roll.

[Trey Young]

But no. So I had like four. And I, I think I went to Chicago, I went to New York. Actually, I went to New York. They had the ninth pick, Fizdale was there and they were thinking about maybe trading up. So we got the Knicks. I went there in Chicago and I worked out in Atlanta, but I didn't. They had the number three pick and I thought they were going to go with the big, like Marvin Bagley if Luca went to Phoenix or something like that. And I mean, Luca didn't go to Phoenix. And then they ended up making the trade. And I found out after the fourth pick that after Luka got called, my agent tapped me on my shoulder and said that you're going there actually, and Luke is going to Dallas at five, so you're gonna be caught at five. So I was waiting the whole fourth pick, like just looking up there like, oh, shit, I'm about to be called. Like, I knew it. And I just, it was a crazy feeling. But I, I was just thinking about going to Atlanta the whole time. Like, I didn't know what, what it's going to be like. I'm just. I went there for a second, but I was excited because I knew, I mean, what type of the city. Like, it was and like the way, the way I'm built, the way I am. Like, I knew I could, like, really relate with the city and try to bring something that, I mean, they. They've never done there, so. And winning the championship, so, yeah, that was. That was something that I really wanted to do. So I was excited about it most definitely.

[DJ Wells]

I mean, they always not pitted y' all against each other, but they always mention that when somebody's name was brought up. But then it was dope, because. You know what I'm saying? Of course, y' all was successful early on, but you had to playoff success early. Like, you had it first. What was that feeling like? You know what I'm saying? I'm nice. Now I'm leading the franchise, but now we getting playoff wins. What was that first playoff series like for you?

[Trey Young]

Oh, man, it was crazy feeling, like. I mean, I debuted my first signature shoe, too, like, that series, and I was playing in prototypes. They didn't even. They couldn't even make enough for me to make playing my own. And I really wanted to play in my first Shoot in the Garden in my first playoff series. And so I was playing in prototypes the first two games. And it was just an unreal feeling, man. Like, just. That first series was crazy, and that's why you just want to continue. That's that itch you get whenever you get there. And you win one, you win a series, and you win two, you get to the conference finals. You're like, you gotta get back to this. You know what I'm saying? It's like, you don't have that same type of joy or excitement at the end of the season unless you get there further. So, I mean, that's where I'm at right now.

[Bishop]

Oh, you did make it to the conference finals. And then who we play that year?

[Trey Young]

Yeah, who'd I play?

[DJ Wells]

I think it's one team in Milwaukee.

[Trey Young]

We got y'.

[Bishop]

All. I think I had a cool series, too. That came out of retirement. Yeah, I did, rj. I came out of retirement. I hit a couple of threes.

[Freaky Mike]

Oh, it says get back from trading.

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Bishop]

Wants time me back, huh? I think you can talk. This ain't that kind of pot.

[Freaky Mike]

Go.

[Bishop]

What you say? I hit three. I hit three. Talk to him. Game six, I hit. Look it up, Luis. Game six, I hit three. Yeah, you was mad I pointed at you One time in Atlanta, too. Yeah, one time. Oh, one time I pointed at you, I was like, rj, that's for you, nigga.

[Trey Young]

No, y' all definitely got us, bro.

[Bishop]

Nah, but sick. You think because you tweaked Your ankle or something that serious, right?

[Trey Young]

Game three.

[Bishop]

All right. Be honest. You think y' all would have beat us if you ain't tweak your ankle?

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Bishop]

Nah, I was. I was back. I was back. It was teague time again.

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Bishop]

They kept their draws on this toe, though. Come on down to the Hawks. No, no, hold on. Why the Hawks? We gotta talk about this. Why the Hawks? Why y' all post?

[Trey Young]

That was probably him.

[DJ Wells]

So you have to see the trend now is tiktop. You know what I'm saying? You wear the jers, even.

[Bishop]

No drama. And so somebody posted a picture of. This is my fit for the day. It was a jersey, some socks and shoes. Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

That's how people walk around their house, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Fire.

[Bishop]

It's fire. I'm like, oh, they don't know what's going on.

[Trey Young]

They don't understand.

[Bishop]

So whoever. Whoever on the media team.

[Freaky Mike]

Exposed to.

[Bishop]

That bros, no draws, see, like, they got clean. Y' all gotta clean up.

[DJ Wells]

They say we have the team game in the arena.

[Bishop]

I'm your number one fan. Y' all can't do me like that.

[Freaky Mike]

As the city embrace you, though, bro.

[Trey Young]

Like, as a whole, I feel like they really embrace me.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

And I think. I remember talking to, I think, Dominique a few years ago about it. Like, just the way I embrace the city. You know what I'm saying? I think it's the same. Similar to how he did, you know what I'm saying? It's like, that's why they. They really mess with you. This certain. You know what I'm saying? A certain way. So I definitely get a lot of love when I go. Go out in the city and go places around. So I really love it.

[Freaky Mike]

Oh, okay.

[DJ Wells]

Oh, obviously. You know what I'm saying? Having a successful. What's that first all star nod feel like, you know what I'm saying, For a lot of players, and that's a monumental moment for them, you know what I'm saying? Get recognized playing on that stage. What was it like for you, man?

[Trey Young]

It was unreal, bro. It was unreal. I got announced here in Oklahoma City.

[Bishop]

Yeah. At the crib.

[Trey Young]

Yeah. We played the Thunder the next day, and I was able to be at my house and watch it with my mom and my family. So it was like an unreal feeling when they announced it. And then the game, it was the year Kobe passed, so the teams were wearing 2 and 24, and that was the first Elam ending. It was a fun game. Only thing I hated about it was that I didn't get to finish the game. And I was a starter, but that was, you know what I'm saying? That's part of it, I guess, being a young guy. Me and Luka didn't get to finish the games, but it was cool though. That was a fun experience, a fun first time experience. But I think I've had some more fun experiences after that.

[DJ Wells]

Most definitely. Monumental moments, you know, it's crazy right now. You going viral again, man. They say, you know what I'm saying? You're the reason why Ben Simmons is thinking about, you know what I'm saying? Moving around, man. They put the picture up. Passing up the layup, underneath the basket, bro.

[Bishop]

Trey, I didn't know your defense was like that.

[Trey Young]

Yeah.

[Freaky Mike]

This pod is not about my boys. No smoke. We put on Ben Simmons.

[Bishop]

We love Ben Simmons, but his paint patroller was on the hall of fame at that point, cuz I said, damn. TR with the contest. Yeah, okay.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, I about to fake block it and the picture looks crazy. Like I'm literally about to fake jump and block it.

[Bishop]

Looks crazy. And he thought about it though, like, oh, no, I was.

[Trey Young]

I was just gonna. He said it too. He said, I thought he was going to foul me, which I probably would have just grabbed his arm and. Yeah, I was really probably about to swing through and grab his arm and make sure he didn't shoot free throws. So.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah, he should have windmilled on your ass.

[DJ Wells]

You can't Trey Young in the post. What you doing, baby?

[Bishop]

Nothing.

[Freaky Mike]

Trey Green down there.

[Bishop]

He'll mail rj. That's his man right there. Yes.

[Freaky Mike]

Going into Blender for sure. Yeah, Trey too little. That's why they talk bad about being like that. He straight down there.

[Trey Young]

You ain't the first person.

[Freaky Mike]

160 wet. I'm 250. I got him by 100. He can't do nothing with me.

[DJ Wells]

Don't feel bad.

[Bishop]

He told Kevin Gard he post him up.

[Freaky Mike]

And Kevin didn't got shitty, bro.

[Bishop]

He started sweating.

[Freaky Mike]

I told Kevin, I'll bust your ass.

[Bishop]

Boy.

[Freaky Mike]

You almost made me forget where I was.

[Bishop]

He was really mad. I was like, oh, he's just playing, bro. I'm not playing, though. I really bust your ass.

[DJ Wells]

The real BTs for sure people.

[Bishop]

Especially my man. Hey, what's your. What's your name? Say one more. Chase. His jumper's so terrible. Chase.

[Freaky Mike]

Shut the up, Chinese.

[DJ Wells]

We gotta get Chase.

[Bishop]

Listen, Chase gotta go back to the lab, bro. The early release. We gotta get the shot creator right.

[DJ Wells]

For my boy Chase. But we gotta get him back in the lab.

[Bishop]

Good dude.

[DJ Wells]

Good dude.

[Bishop]

I rock with you. Good people. Hey, you got a good team, bro. Great people. Mike laporte. That's my guy. My way for good people.

[DJ Wells]

Come on.

[Bishop]

But chase your jumper.

[Trey Young]

You gotta work.

[Bishop]

Oh, everybody was wondering about that. But you could crazy, bro. Shout out to the game for sure.

[DJ Wells]

Hey, man, what's it like being a GM man of your alma mater, man?

[Trey Young]

Oh, it's. It's crazy. It's dope. I mean, y'. All. Y' all seen, like, a little bit of Norman? Like, Yeah, I grew up here, went to elementary, middle school, high school, now in college. And I get to be the GM here and get to call these kids and kind of promote the school, promote the city, help them with. I mean, feel comfortable if they ended up deciding to come to my school. Like, it's. Yeah, that's an unreal feeling. And I feel like it's something that I can take advantage of. And I told the coaches and everybody that helped me do this, like, I didn't get a chance to win a championship in college more than once. So this is my really opportunity to. To get me a ring in college. So, yeah, we gonna go get some players to help us do that.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, I got some NAT boys on there. Shout out to you on that. Shout out to Ty. I tapped in 317 lineage show.

[Freaky Mike]

Treat my boys right, man, while they.

[Bishop]

Out here knowing them, anything, how they treat us, bro, they living in heaven.

[Trey Young]

They getting treated right.

[Freaky Mike]

Do you see yourself even, like, coaching or, you know, in somebody's office after you done playing?

[Trey Young]

Coaching? No. Coaching. No, I'm cool.

[Bishop]

They made me sound. They said that, like, it's just terrible.

[Trey Young]

No, I'm cool. I just. Yeah, just being. Being an NBA and understanding the business and I mean, this coaching business, like, these coaches of the years that get that, I mean, get fired and. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? The coaches don't have as much juice as you may think, you know what I'm saying? When it comes to the team and who they coaching and who's coming to the team, and you know what I'm saying? It's just. It's a lot of pros being a coach, obviously, right? I mean, I think there's a lot. A lot more cons, to be honest with you.

[DJ Wells]

Understood, man. But you know what I'm saying, the AAU squad, obviously, you went crazy. Aau. You and BG got the squiddy. What's going on? What we doing?

[Trey Young]

Hey, hey, man, we got a squad, man. We got a squad. This is our first year with the eybl, so. Yeah, I mean, we gonna win a PCM championship here too, in the new year.

[Freaky Mike]

What's the age group you got?

[Trey Young]

I got all the way from what, 12, 12U to 17S.

[Freaky Mike]

Okay. You got a full program.

[Bishop]

So Little bro on that team. Yeah, yeah, I remember. Look, I got a little story about little bro. I remember Little bro was a little jit. He was running around shooting on the court. Get your little ass out. My shooting section, it was shoot, I'm out there shooting. He running on the court. I only get five minutes a game. Look at one more now. See him? He taller than me. He's six two. I'm excited to see what he gonna do with his. You know what I mean? He went to the game today and he was looking in that crowd. Yeah, he said it's looking for. He said looking special.

[Freaky Mike]

Well, get your ass in that portal.

[Bishop]

He said looking special over here. Nah, I'm excited to see his journey though.

[Trey Young]

Appreciate that.

[DJ Wells]

And it's crazy because I think you might have just missed this window. But imagine what you would have did with the Nil, especially with all the success you had. The movie to see this football season.

[Bishop]

Is him in theater September 19th. Produced by Jordan Peele and directed by Justin Tippen, this sports horror mashup stars.

[DJ Wells]

Marlon Wayne plays Isaiah White, the greatest.

[Bishop]

Football player of all time with rings to prove it. Tariq Withers plays Cameron Cade, an up and comer and protege.

[DJ Wells]

Cam gets the offer of a lifetime when he's called upon by Isiah to trade at his compound. Things get weird fast and Isiah's training methods are a bit intense.

[Freaky Mike]

This movie gives a whole new meaning to God, family and football.

[Bishop]

Marlon Waynes is terrifying and Tariq Willis proves he has what it takes to be the goat.

[Freaky Mike]

Meeting your auto isn't all what is cracked up to be in him and.

[Bishop]

Begs the question how far will you go? To be the greatest of all time.

[DJ Wells]

You have to be willing to sacrifice everything.

[Bishop]

Him, his theater. September 19th.

[Trey Young]

Oh man.

[Bishop]

How much would it cost?

[Freaky Mike]

Okay, man comma with a comma after that first year.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, no, I mean that's what I'm saying. I mean no, I wouldn't like that's the thing. If I would have played the way I did my freshman year, ain't no reason to stay for no nil. This NBA, NBA money is different. That's why I try to tell these kids like there's no reason to like if you really feel like you got a chance making to the NBA, it's like there's no reason to be, you know, mindset to be chasing this nil bag, you know what I'm saying? It should be let's get to the best place that I can be to help get to the next level. You know what I'm saying? If they give me a lot of money, that's cool. If they don't, you know what I'm saying? I understand what my mission is. It ain't, it ain't about the money. So some, some of these kids gonna ruin their careers just by chasing this, this college bag, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's I mean it's a lot of money, of course, for sure, but it's not, you know what I'm saying? Generational, you know what I'm saying? Where you can like NBA, like what we're able to do if you play it the right way.

[Bishop]

So I just, I'm love that you said that. Because a lot of kids are making decisions to go to a school where they might not even play necessarily the game that they want to play. They might go to somewhere they a pick and roll player and they run a prison offense. But they gave them a home 300,000 or whatever, man. You got to go where it's best for you, where you can play. Because the goal is to get to the next level. Or even if you're not gonna make it to the NBA, the goal is to play so well that they have to pay you $2 million to stay there. You know what I mean? If a NBA might not be for every. I mean obviously everybody's not gonna make it to the NBA. Everybody's not that special. But you wanna play at a high level, you go get a million dollars the first year and you don't play that much and you don't play well, you're not getting a million dollars second year. That's a fact.

[Trey Young]

That's a fact.

[Freaky Mike]

I think it kills the kids confidence. Do you think it fucks up their work ethic too though?

[Trey Young]

Yeah, that's, that's what I think. It kills the most.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

You know what I'm saying? Like the kids, especially the kids, the, the highly rated kids. Like there was kids that were higher rated than me. I think I was finished like 24th or 26th. I mean I was probably like the second guy drafted out of my class, you know what I'm saying? So that's crazy. After one year, third guy. So it's like, that's what I'm saying. It's like I can only imagine if I had nil deals now, you know what I'm saying? Or even back then like it would have been kind of the same, same kind of thing. So yeah, high level guys can, can lose track of focus too by this short term money. So.

[DJ Wells]

Right, yeah, that's what's happening. What's it like being on Jordan Brand, man? Everybody grew up, you know what I'm saying? Wanting to be the man. Want to awarded kicks now you they tapped in. What's that feeling like, man?

[Trey Young]

It's unreal, man. I like them shoes Jeff got on right now.

[Bishop]

Well, if you like it, sign us to say goodbye.

[DJ Wells]

What?

[Trey Young]

What? Is the episode coming out?

[Bishop]

Nah, check it out. It can flip really quick.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, but so nah for sure.

[Bishop]

I signed a Trey Young Enterprise shout out to the LC. Yeah. KO2 Laporia signed up.

[Freaky Mike]

Let Trey Young tell his Jordan story.

[Trey Young]

No, no, I mean, Jordan's cool, man. I've really enjoyed my. My time this year. I've had one year with him, so I got this year with him, and then I'm a free agent next summer, so. It's true. Free agent. So it's gonna be. It's gonna be fun. I mean, I've loved it since I've been over there. I mean, I can. I can see myself having a long future with him for sure.

[Freaky Mike]

They pull up with a big truck, empty the clip.

[Trey Young]

Not the first time. We gonna see about the second time.

[Freaky Mike]

Respect.

[Trey Young]

Okay, respect.

[DJ Wells]

I'm talking about it now.

[Freaky Mike]

I beat Freaky Mike on. Was I on Oklahoma University's campus University? Yeah. We played by the tennis rules, and I won three to one. You know what I mean? Quick game. I didn't sweat in my, you know, I mean, my visual shorts, man. I didn't warm up. I was fresh off of a four piece tender and two. Two loaves of bread.

[Bishop]

Shout out to Razor Chains, man.

[Freaky Mike]

Shout out to Razor Cane.

[Bishop]

You know that's your favorite too.

[Freaky Mike]

Wow, you got a beautiful event going on, bro. Can you speak on your foundation and you know the events you put on for the weekend?

[Trey Young]

Yeah, no, this. This is my. This is my second year doing this, like, podcast weekend, but this is our first year doing the pickleball on Friday.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

And so that was. This was fun. I mean, we was able to do it today and I was excited that y' all pulled up. I appreciate it. And I saw you and Mike going at it over there.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah, that shit light bull.

[Bishop]

This was crazy.

[Freaky Mike]

I should lie, right?

[Bishop]

But.

[Trey Young]

No, it was fire, man. I mean, it's going to be a crazy weekend. I mean, this is just the beginning. I mean, tomorrow I got game day, and then we got. I mean, I'm playing with the guys, the players after that, so, I mean, and then we got the game, so we got a lot. We got a lot going on this weekend. So it's all. And it's all going to my foundation too. So. That's the best part.

[DJ Wells]

Definitely tap in with the foundation for sure. Also pickleball team GM as well. You know what I'm saying? What's going on? Behead. You trying to sign, man, they got squad.

[Freaky Mike]

I'm cool. I ain't in shape for that.

[Bishop]

It makes sense, though.

[Trey Young]

Pickleball. You know what? I' no crazy. That's crazy.

[Bishop]

Not that much. What do you mean by that? I mean by like, it's a lot of. It's a lot of clubs in Atlanta.

[DJ Wells]

It's a whole bunch of bouncers. Yeah.

[Bishop]

Okay. So, like, that's how I took it for sure. I mean.

[Freaky Mike]

Let'S get back on the.

I want to go positive.

[Bishop]

It's a great transition.

[Freaky Mike]

We're talking about the inspired, though.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, no, my. My. My Young Family Athletic Center. Yeah, it was. I mean, it's kind of like another YMCA version. Like, I mean, I grew up going to the YMCA every day. Every day. Playing pickup with guys after school, in the morning, before school, going to work out. So it's kind of like another version of that. Like, it's. I mean, it has, I think, eight quarts. I mean, I have. It actually has a hospital connected to it. So we have. Yeah. So if a kid basically breaks his. Breaks his leg. Yeah. You can go right there and not even get in the car and drive away. So that's crazy. We have people come in there and get rehab and use it for other things other than basketball. But we have basketball courts. We use it for volleyball, pickleball, we have a whole bunch of other events that go on in the facility. So I think we're putting it to great use, for sure. And it's something that, I mean, I'm happy we got to do.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, that's one thing I feel like that people really miss so much, especially with the younger generation. Like, we all grew up playing basketball. It didn't matter which level you played, but you was always in the gym. But the gym was a safe place to keep people away from doing other stuff, away from stuff at home, maybe shaking. It was a safe haven. Kids don't go outside, play basketball no more. Now it's like for you to have something that people can just go and just be themselves or be kids or just enjoy the stuff, that's dope, man. Yeah, we definitely lack that a lot nowadays.

[Trey Young]

No, for sure. And I mean, I think that's why it's important like that. I mean, guys continue to push, like playing fives, like, especially if you want to play. I mean, and just being active, like that's. That's kind of what it is for too. And I think we have an after school program that, I mean, if not, it's already there. I mean, I know that's something I wanted to do and we're gonna put that in. So, I mean, I think that's important for kids to have somewhere. I use after school program at my middle school. Like when parents are working, you gotta have places to go. So I think that's a big reason why we're using it too. So.

[Bishop]

Nah, that's dope, bro.

[DJ Wells]

And I ain't gonna lie, man. Just being out and about with y' all and the team all day to see the impact in your city. Even with him, I always give him praise. Cause he coaches our alma mater, high school. It's just like the impact you just being around changed a lot of people's lives, man. So salute to you. Salute to the team, the foundation, everything y the community. Definitely rocking the trial. And that's dope to see. Because a lot of people, you know what I'm saying, they get it and they run away. You stuck it out here and you making the lives around the city better, man. So salute to you again, to the team, man, for sure.

[Bishop]

And that gotta be dope to see your last name on a building like that. You know what I mean? That's fire, man.

[Trey Young]

For sure. It's a blessing, bro.

[Freaky Mike]

I wanna talk about the music side.

[Bishop]

Okay.

[Freaky Mike]

I seen you in the booth with my boy, man. Seen him in the booth with Quavo.

[Bishop]

Uh.

[Trey Young]

Oh.

[Freaky Mike]

Now, Trey, what made you get in the booth? Now? Is this something we just doing as a hobby or we. Is it a mixtape on the way? Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

Mixtape.

[Trey Young]

Troy. We got something with that song that me and him made. We were doing something with another brand and stuff. We were kind of switching lives. We switched lives. So I got to go in the booth with him, and then he came on the court with me. But that song that we made, it's hard, bro.

[Freaky Mike]

I ain't gonna. I'm a hater.

[Trey Young]

I hear you. I ain't gonna tell you. I gotta. We got a feature on it, too. And I got one of my other bros.

[Bishop]

I'm making my debut.

[Trey Young]

Yeah. I got one of my other brothers.

[Bishop]

[Freaky Mike]

Respect.

[Trey Young]

Yeah. Nah, but I got. So we gonna. I'm talking about. We talking about going to drop it right before a training camp, so we got a surprise.

[Bishop]

I'm nervous about it.

[Trey Young]

What, the song?

[Bishop]

Yeah. Like, no.

[Trey Young]

I mean, I. I ain't do nothing much but the ad libs and stuff, so. I mean, my.

[Freaky Mike]

It's hard.

[Trey Young]

It's fire. I ain't gonna lie, like, on everything.

[Freaky Mike]

It's raw.

[Trey Young]

Do you hear the. The feature we got with the guy? We got? Like, you gonna. You're gonna be like, oh, okay.

[DJ Wells]

Stay tuned.

[Freaky Mike]

Hold on. Like, give us some context, though. Is it Atlanta artist?

[Trey Young]

Yeah. I mean.

[Bishop]

Yeah, it's all Atlanta.

[Trey Young]

To Atlanta.

[Freaky Mike]

I think it's changed, bro.

[Bishop]

Was gonna go with two, cuz.

[Freaky Mike]

It can't be. Can't be. These other two part.

[DJ Wells]

Like I said, they got, like, one, everybody working.

[Bishop]

It's two. It's two, cuz.

[Trey Young]

[Bishop]

So I'mma come in on a. You got the hook.

[Freaky Mike]

No, he's ad lib.

[Bishop]

I got the hook. Worry about it.

[Freaky Mike]

Quo. Really cool, bro.

[Trey Young]

Yeah, he cool. Not. Not to lie.

[Freaky Mike]

I'm a N level. Yeah. I'm saying. See.

[Bishop]

All right. Quo. Rj.

[Trey Young]

Hey, bro. N. I'mma go rj. Look at rj.

[Bishop]

He thought about it a little bit.

[Trey Young]

Think about it. No, I'm going rj. Rj. Rj go better for sure. Rj. RJ can definitely hoop better, man.

[DJ Wells]

Speaking of hoop, listen, we gotta get back to it. New season on the way, man. Y' all done had a hell of a offseason. What's going on?

[Trey Young]

Sure.

[DJ Wells]

He been. He'd Be gas. And he got high hopes for y'.

[Bishop]

All.

[DJ Wells]

How you feeling, number one?

[Trey Young]

Yeah, I feel. I feel great. I can't lie to you. I mean, the. The. If we're healthy, I mean, it's going to be scary. I mean, for me, I'm not. I'm not one to really want to talk about it right now. Like, I'm a guy that's one to let the. The play do the talking. And I know if we healthy, all that's gonna speak for itself. So y' all got a great team. No, I'm not. I'm not worried. The only thing that could stop us in my mind is health. So we got a lot of talented players and a lot of guys that are playing for something too. So that'll push guys to go even harder. So when you got guys playing for something, I mean, that's scary. And so if we have health on our side, we got a chance.

[Freaky Mike]

I got Jalen being the All Star this year.

[Trey Young]

I do too.

[Freaky Mike]

Gotta speak on the team too much, but, yeah, I see him taking the big league, bro. Put me on to him last year. Like, he. He really a special player. For real, bro.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Trey Young]

Before he got hurt, we was top five in the east, you know what I'm saying?

[Bishop]

Speak about it. Speak about it.

[Trey Young]

A lot of people don't understand that. Like, I mean, things would have been different. You may look at us, the way we ended the season and all that, but, I mean, Jalen missed 45 plus.

[Freaky Mike]

Games, you know what I'm saying?

[Trey Young]

And that's. He was on an All Star level last year. I mean, on that track, you know what I'm saying? To having his first All Star, so. So I believe if he's healthy, he's going to have his first All Star this year, and we'll have a winning season and everything will be good. So I'm excited.

[Bishop]

I predict all NBA for you this year. Yeah, All Star now, obviously, but I predict all NBA first, second team for sure. I think y' all gonna have a great year. I've been telling everybody with the acquisitions, y' all got Nikhil Porzingis. I just think it's our time for sure. And the east is wide open.

[Freaky Mike]

Yeah, it is this week out there. It's definitely wide open.

[DJ Wells]

Gonna be here, you know what I'm saying? You still switching up on the Magic?

But I didn't know you was that overlooked till I really start paying attention, because I'm just a fan of the game, bro. I don't really be caring about all the politics, but I see you get overlooked a lot now. It's, like, way too much, bro.

[Trey Young]
