00:00You guys have got some pretty special pieces and this is your Holy Grail collection?
00:04Yeah?
00:04Some of the pieces from the Holy Grail collection.
00:06So you didn't get all of them out for us.
00:08What's your most important piece that you've got in this room?
00:10It's got to be the Jordan signed ball.
00:13My dad gifted it to me for my birthday.
00:16But I also had the opportunity to meet Iverson in New York City
00:21the weekend that he was being inducted into the Hall of Fame.
00:24That's great.
00:24They were releasing his sneaker which was called the Curtain Call at the time.
00:29So the question one sneaker he personally signed it in front of me.
00:34So this one here's a training jersey from the 90s Bulls team.
00:40So the Jordan era Bulls team.
00:41One of my friends Joe who helped me do the fit out for the store.
00:45He's a crazy crazy Bulls fan.
00:48And every now and then he'd show up and say hey man I bought this on an auction site.
00:52And this is for you to display in the office.
00:54So this is one of the ones that I newly need to get framed.
00:57But I just thought it was a really cool piece.
00:59Given that it's an original training jersey.
01:02I'm not sure which player wore it.
01:04It could have been one of the smaller guys like Steve Kerr
01:06because it doesn't look like it's big enough for a Jordan.
01:08A signed Barclay print and also a Hakeem the Dream.
01:13I mean this is just a real throwback to again
01:17when dad was involved with the Kings ownership group in the late 80s early 90s.
01:22So Steve Carthino, Tim Morrissey.
01:25I can go through all the names here.
01:28Zoran Zunic who is dad to Carl Zunic playing in the NBL now.
01:32This is kind of what I remember growing up.
01:35Not the short shorts.
01:36I was going to say they are short.
01:37But just in general.
01:38But yeah it's really good to see the Kings back to where they're at now.
01:41This is where the Kings brand lives at the higher end of the league.
01:47And I think the Kings brand represents so much for Australian basketball.
01:51This is, I feel like this is very niche.
01:54It's niche.
01:55A little back story to this.
01:56When dad was involved with the Sydney Kings and his ownership group.
02:01Though that group decided to invest in a team over in England.
02:05And they had the team called the Birmingham Bullets.
02:08And the first ever coach for the Birmingham Bullets was a man by the name of Nick Nurse.
02:13And this is going back years before Nick Nurse became a famous NBA coach.
02:18But in 2019 when Nick was head coach of the Canadian national team and they came to Australia.
02:24I think something happened with their luggage and they lost their training jerseys.
02:28So the Canadian manager reached out to me to get them some training jerseys printed up.
02:33And as a thank you I asked if they would mind.
02:36Because I had found this old polo shirt in storage from my dad's storage.
02:41And Nick signed it for us kindly.
02:44And I framed it for my dad for Father's Day.
02:47That's so cool.
02:48I love this.
02:48This is awesome.
02:49Yeah.
