12:30lebron spent a million dollars on his body a year
12:32that's to be great
12:33a million dollars on his body
12:35i've heard this crazy notion about how much money i spend on my body per year
12:41and i kind of just chuckle
12:43and that is a number that i will not disclose
12:45but more importantly
12:47i think it's just the time
12:49new cryotherapy
12:51cold tub hot tub
12:52red light
12:53hyperbaric chambers
12:55so the hyperbaric chamber is crazy to me
12:58like
12:59it's giving coughing
13:01i don't like it
13:02it's very loud
13:03i can't get with it
13:05the recovery
13:06and the treatment sessions
13:08that's really important to me
13:10i wish for him
13:11is to come out of it
13:12the same way he went into it
13:13so he can enjoy
13:14his life post career
13:16the way that he treats his body
13:18and you know
13:19i don't see that being an issue
13:21but i do know that
13:23you know
13:24it's a lot of pounding
13:26and beating up
13:26i love the normatech machine
13:29which basically is recovery for your legs
13:31they're sequentially deflated and inflated
13:35just to push the light of gas out of the legs
13:38it just helps refresh the legs
13:40get ready for activity
13:41and just helps with pain and swelling
13:44and any soreness that he has
13:46yes sir depot
13:47yes sir depot
13:50he is too close
13:52he got two timeouts
13:53what the fuck
13:54how could they give that
13:55got his ass
13:58got his ass
13:59got his ass
14:01we tried her all in 20 years
14:06but the most important thing
14:08is what he gets for free
14:10and that's sleep
14:11it's a non-negotiable
14:12there is no altering it
14:14and it's almost like
14:16you know how you like see a kid
14:18and they start like getting real silly
14:20and like doing like crazy stuff
14:22when they don't get their nap
14:23it's almost like he would prefer
14:27like go ahead and take your nap
14:29like you have to get this energy out of you
14:32he like you know i'm sleepy
14:33all right
14:34about to take my nap
14:35you gotta go home
14:37gotta get the hell out of my room
14:39i'm like yeah
14:43go take your nap
14:44sleep is the best recovery that you can have
15:00it's basically equivalent to you putting your phone on a charger
15:02when you go to bed
15:04am i able to do it every single night
15:07of course not
15:07but if you try to get the most sleep that you can get
15:14that is the only way that you're going to get back to 100%
15:18well a typical game day ritual

15:35shoot around is usually at 10 o'clock
15:36i get in cold plunges
15:4010 to 15 minutes at a time
15:42i step out on the floor
15:43before we start our shoot around at 9 40
15:46for a 20 minute workout on the court
15:48oh shit

16:26by 2 30 i'm at the arena
16:28we have a floor series
16:35and that's all just really trying to fire in these deep core muscles
16:38and then we work our way out from there

16:44that sets the tone for the evening
16:46in his mind he's already beating you
16:48you know you walk in you're late

16:53for my routine where i step out on the basketball floor
16:57before everybody gets there
16:59before no fans

21:49feet
21:50i think from seeing his dad go
21:54through the injuries that he
21:55went through because recovery
21:56wasn't a thing when he played
21:58he had so many injuries like
22:01i think he had like two torn
22:02achilles like everything was
22:04broken
22:04i was always told since a
22:11young age by my dad take care
22:13of your body take care of your
22:14body that's the most important
22:15thing so he's just always worried
22:16about me you know doesn't want me
22:17to get hurt always wants me to
22:19take my time and heal before i
22:21come out the worst thing i feel
22:22like in basketball is being on the
22:24bench and watching your team play
22:28this we talk from the first day
22:31when he
22:32came to nba you know say here you
22:34have
22:35the best of everything you need to
22:37do
22:38whatever you need to do
22:39this
22:40recuperation stuff you know this is
22:43more important
22:44if you be healthy you play
22:47taking care of myself my body
22:49is what basically gets you to the
22:50next level
22:51the in-season tournament
22:53anything you can do to keep
22:54yourself mentally fresh and and the
22:56body right
22:56games at seven i might not be ready
22:59at six but by the time the jump
23:00ball comes up i'm gonna be ready
23:02let the fun continue the knockout
23:05rounds move on in sacramento on this
23:08monday night
23:09and it's the in-season tournament's a big thing this win right now would take us to vegas
23:25everyone's watching
23:26everyone's watching
23:27i feel like everyone wants to be part of something that they can win being part of a final four
23:37it's always a lot of fun a lot of excitement
23:40out the gates
23:48guards are shooting lights out we're moving the ball we're playing great we take a nice
23:53bigger early lead it's just going smooth
23:55you know in the nba it comes and goes real quick you can be on a high real quick and you can be on a low
24:01tough to stop that a freight train coming zion williamson help guys you gotta get in you gotta get in come on you know it's a whole trickle effect
24:10the pelicans put the clamps down on sacramento
24:14the pelicans they really put us in uncomfortable positions where they played a certain way which was physical smart and they came and punched us in the mouth
24:21as the pelicans put the pedal down here in this fourth quarter and gonna take down the kings instead they're gonna win their third straight game against sacramento to advance to las vegas
24:40to lose such a big game at home really just sucks
24:47post-game mental recovery i mean it can go a lot of different ways sometimes you just want to vent you want to get it all out
24:55but uh you can't get too high or too low you know it's such a long season and
25:00as the years go on and you become more a veteran you kind of learn how to control that and keep yourself
25:07always at a steady pace
25:08i don't know my thing is like beyond 6 10 doesn't really make a difference with your game set
25:21to be 6 11
25:22for sure i paid i would pay 50 grand to be 6 too
25:26a year
25:27no
25:27it can't be that easy bro
25:32a year no
25:33that's really the problem i never felt short till i started working in the league
25:38i never felt like i was short when i was in the clinic college i was never the short guy
25:44now the short asian dude is walking around with you guys
25:47with games every other day in the nba
25:51it kind of forces you to stick to a certain training schedule where there's a saying you want to keep the high days high and the low days low
26:01it's a 5e side we do the same shit all the time i'm originally from queens new york you know i will admit i was a pretty diehard knicks fan back in the day but i also can admit now i think i'm a little bit too invested right now to root for any other team other than the celtics
26:18you know i think i was a pretty good coach
26:2182 games plus a postseason can be pretty taxing you know a lot of these guys just want to focus on
26:25the on-court stuff but one of the advantages with him is he really bought into the body work started really appreciating the process
26:33you want to win the championship but what i've realized and learned in my seven years of playing is to enjoy the process and not take things for granted
26:44you know nick has a direct impact on the success that i have on the court you know i've been one of the most durable players of you know since i've been in the nba and that is a you know a testament to staying consistent right we have a plan we have things we're trying to accomplish
27:00you know you spend a lot of time together we joke but like i probably see him more than my family my friends so you know inherently kind of becomes you know one of my closest friends
27:11you know he's in the gym for my american gangster he was a black cop remember russell crowe had his crew
27:16yeah yeah oh is it yeah so he did an interview with basically like man i did a scene he was like he was in the scene with denzel and denzel didn't talk to him the entire time they filmed the movie
27:27didn't say one word he said he was at the movie premiere and he was with his wife he said he was walking and somebody just came up and gave him a big bear hug from behind
27:36and it was denzel he said man i was wondering like why didn't she talk to me he said that was frank lucas you was a cop
27:43because you was a cop is it harder to be a stand-up comedian or or a uh uh
27:50is you for me that i'm trying to stop sport
27:54oh all right that's just easy to stop
27:56oh yeah i mean everybody already know what you're about to say when you go
28:00i think art like sports is the only thing where you're fighting or get like somebody is actively trying to stop me
28:08what a scene what an atmosphere here
28:13at the semi-finals of his first ever in-season tournament the winner advancing to las vegas
28:20it is electric in here
28:23jason tatum with the defender hanging on his back
28:27it's good it's good
28:29in-season tournament we've never seen anything like this
28:32and it just gives teams who may not necessarily be like championship level teams but you know on any given night they can beat anybody
28:39i think that's what the end-season tournament was made for
28:42it just made it more interesting that you know one game single elimination
28:47ayy
28:48tatum frustrated with all the physicality
28:50ayy
28:51jason's made that conscious effort to work on how it takes care of his body
28:54say say say say say say say say say say say say say say
28:57and i think he's benefiting from that like all those things go into his ability to perform at a high level for longer periods of time
29:02stay in the game go get layups
29:04make them have to find fouls and guard us don't settle for a three
29:12said tatum looks like he's been hitting the ymca in the offseason he added 12 pounds of muscle in the summer and you can see it paying off
29:18and one
29:221 42 left
29:24we are deadlocked at 105
29:26it is electric

31:51it was high intense basketball body around us was just like completely in darkness you couldn't see much and the court was literally the stage

35:04Davis with the finish.
35:07Don't get bored.
35:08We're getting stuck.
35:10All the way to the finish.
35:11The tightest rules are even tighter.
35:15Gaines drives inside.
35:17We got too many dogs born ready.
35:21Too many motherfucking dogs born ready.
35:25Definition of a dog is somebody that actually believes what he's saying.
35:28He has the confidence to go out here and make the outcome.
35:32He's going to give the energy that everybody needs to keep going.
35:39Los Angeles Lakers.
35:41When the first NBA Cup, they are champions of the inaugural in-season tournament.
35:51I was proud and happy that we were able to be the first ever champions of the in-season tournament.
36:00We made history.
36:01And anytime you're on the right side of history, you take it.
36:03So, first inning of the tournament, belongs to the Los Angeles Lakers.
36:08That would never, ever be top.
36:09Ever.
36:09This is automatic.
36:10This is automatic.
36:12This is automatic.
36:12This is the case when you're over, right?
36:14Automatic.
36:16And we add another one to the mantle.
36:17Kids, hand out the medals.
36:23We have our first ever NBA in-season cup Laker team.
36:40Come take your trophy.
36:41Every player got $500,000.
36:57We had guys on our team that was rookies.
37:00There were two-way players that were, you know, basically on the G League team.
37:05So, $500,000 to them at this point in time in their life is life-changing.
37:18To be able to come through for those guys, it meant a lot to me.
37:23Hey, hey, y'all.
37:25Hey, y'all, what's that bitch like this all game?
37:28That was boogieing like a motherfucker, man.
37:30To see them celebrate and know what was coming to them.
37:34Like, that meant a lot.
37:38The last trophy, the MVP to a man who, frankly, there's nothing else to win in this league.
37:46The only thing I can say, I'm sorry, but it doesn't come with a franchise.
37:50LeBron James, the MVP.
37:56All right, we're on the line.
37:57We're up with the praise.
37:58Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we paid.
38:00Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, we paid.
38:02First time to do for a movie.
38:03Oh, man, caught my body, yeah.
38:06I made with shit.
38:07Oh, my God.
38:09Look at how it's doing?
38:09Winning, man.
38:10Winning is winning.
38:10I don't give a fuck.
38:12Winning is winning.
38:13What's up, man?
38:13What's up, man?
38:14How you doing?
38:15Oh, my God, I'm tired of you.
38:18This is always the poor word.
38:20You be celebrating a little bit, and then you get in here, you be like, I'm fucking tired of shit.
38:24It feels great to win.
38:30I'm a winner.
38:31That's what I want to do.
38:32So whatever I'm doing, I want to win at it.
38:34So it was amazing.
38:36Now I can get home and cheer on my son.
38:42That's the most important right now.
38:46I got right on the plane and headed home, because the next day I knew Bronny's debut was happening.
38:50My energy level had to be, you know, extremely high for him.
38:57I dedicated this season to Bronny because of everything that he's been through.
39:06Some good news for Bronny James, the son of NBA superstar LeBron James,
39:10warmed up with his USC teammates last night for the first time since suffering cardiac arrest last July.
39:19When I knew he was healthy enough to play basketball, it was an unbelievable feeling.
39:25But it's just a lot of nerves for sure.
39:29A lot of nerves.
39:32Because we almost lost him.
39:35And for the first time this season, four months after suffering cardiac arrest,
39:41Bronny James makes his collegiate debut.
39:45Again, just happy for the kid to be back playing basketball.
39:49And get into a war game.
39:50And we would say that, whether it's Bronny James, son of NBA, or Ryan.
39:54If you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
39:58And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:02And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:04And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:06And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:08And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:10And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:12And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:14And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
40:16And if you have a health care like that, it's great to see him back on the court.
