00:00What's wrong with being confident?
00:04What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being, what's wrong with being confident?
00:12It's time to get the change out
00:14Is your tongue tied up?
00:17Cause this is my ground
00:18And I'm dangerous
00:20And you can get out
00:22But it's all about me tonight
00:25Tonight
00:35Hi, I'm Amanda, I'm captain of the Brooklyn Nets
00:38This is actually my fifth season with the Nets
00:40I did the last year in New Jersey
00:42And I love the brand so much that I transitioned
00:44And I'm now in my fourth year
00:46Coming back to Barclays Center
00:47Absolutely love it
00:49The Nets has given me one of the most amazing experiences of my life
00:53And I love fitness
00:54I love health
00:55I love exercise
00:56And I love dance
00:57So it's been really great to just bring all of that into one unit
01:00And just keep pushing myself to be the best that I can be
01:03Now that this is my fifth year here on the Nets
01:05I really do feel like I've mastered and really endured what it's taken to really become a Brooklyn Nets
01:11So now that I'm here
01:12I'm trying to pass that knowledge on to the ladies that come following me
01:16And also really pushing them to be the best that they can be as well
01:19So each year we're pushing the envelope
01:20We're getting bigger and better
01:21We're putting on show-stopping entertainment
01:23And it's a lot of fun
01:25So I'm excited to see everything that comes from here
01:27All right, getting into my workout
01:31Yes, Katie and Jackie that end up sweating
01:33So don't curve the circle out too much
01:35Do you want to keep that as a point?
01:38Huh?
01:42Just make this
01:45The Brooklyn Nets are very different than a lot of the other NBA dance teams
01:49In A, that we don't use pom-poms
01:51Which is one element that some people kind of can misconstrue if we're cheerleaders or if we're actually dancers
01:56So we really pride ourselves on being technical dancers
01:59We're professionally trained
02:00We all have dance backgrounds
02:02Some have degrees
02:02And some are professional dancers
02:04And some are professional dancers
02:05And it's the camera in front of you
