was your hazing that is why
he’s a guess so this would
you think you it was Mike I
cannot take the FOX family
enough you know he was it was
the first.
Time that I actually like
because I did lot of interviews
before it was the first time
that actually sit down and told
my whole story you know why but
seeing coach Cal, you know,
seeing my American family.
Because you left turkey, yeah
for Babbitt who nutty.
And then you get there, but how
did you light up with a sponsor
family who did that for you so
I had a kind of a life coach.
He put me in touch with them
and then I went to their house
for the first time to make us
American flag for your house,
they said oh yeah stalls like
this is not an embassy why he
has had a vocal flag for of
your job is to get good English
no I did not visible because we
love our country I was like
interesting you know, so they
try to get to learn everything
about you know about them you
grew up and they told us cool
America’s evil as all eyes on
this. I mean like I said again
that front of classes they have
American flags, the Israeli
flags. You have we have to step
on them if they don’t then
you know out there tonight are
the classes at the walk of life
for what exactly
so you go in there when you
went to school in Turkey, this
was pli their NATO allies they
I mean they are him a Dalai
they’re not Dalai they’re more
Rochelle at an American ally at
this point. It was like that
your whole life or was I’m
trying to I mean I don’t think
you was spotted with a T says
everyone the protest is
president came to office
something more Russian ally
than American ally.
So you end up going Turkey to
wear. So turkey I came here for
a prep school. So some of the
Valley California. I don’t to
college and Kentucky couldn’t
get to play that I got drafted
by Utah Jazz in 2011.
And you join the Jazz had that
go it was it was amazing
actually it
I played a 3 and a half years
Mormon amazing people you know
very peaceful.
City if you like skiing has to
do it for television player
could unit that year in college
to develop
I will be getting better us the
actually very rushed to Iran
also when I got drafted we had
a lockout year. So we could
play like few months. So like I
couldn’t play high school
because of you know this
eligible to stuff no college
because of you know I see a
knot couldn’t get to play.
Oscar win NBA.
so fresh and on my everyone to
get the play basketball in this
country. But the lockout was
over playing basketball.
It was the best time. so
6.11 Jen foot.
So we I remember when you came
to the next afterwards and
everyone
loved you and they do about
that because so yeah, I mean
your your energy was
unbelievable, but they had no
talent after while the issue
too good take a seat which is
tanking r-wi remember coach
called me in his room. One
dollars I what I do is like
listen. This is what happens
when you’re a good player
played in a bad team.
You know from now on I’m going
to try to get a good draft.
Pick so we’re going to sit you.
It was my contract here I was
like I cannot believe this
people literally telling me
they’re going to take you know
so for that next 8 games.
The I was sitting on the bench
and the whole fans they were
chanting we want cancer.
So they put so much pressure on
them and then they release me
that I Southport once they
settled Poile yeah and then
from Poland to the Celtics
Celtics, yeah and then with
Celtics, you you playing every
game every game into you did
what 2 I something about China.
You know
it’s less until I saw the word
the shoes which has no any kind
of rule against it because
during the bubble all the
players were rare like black
lives matter. Brianna Taylor
regularly black revolution on
my okay well, I guess there’s
no rule against it. If that is
a human right to shoot there’s
right issue too. You know
for said for Tibetans we Gore’s
home owners Taiwanese people
but they knew that is going to
hit their pockets, so they’re
like. Right so
Adam silver saying know about
it right moment, when you talk
to him.
He said why didn’t know that
the cell to the immediately
took the Celtics at a China
over there’s 2 options you
either are terrible. You don’t
commissioner or you just lie.
I think it was just like his
just like there’s no way to
just do we know where these he
said listen to him play the
whole game yeah, 3 we lost the
game and free Tibet last year
you said you wouldn’t be a lost
a game obviously
so then you you do they say
deal don’t worry those speakers
again you said you won’t, but
you were different sneak all I
just want to lie tells like you
know what I promise I’m not one
of our free Tibet has ever
again it’s a promise is a
promise so we hung up the
phone. The next game. I were
free
legal issues. So after the game
because they said you’re a liar
you’re lights who was your $2
that first of all I have a lie
to you
I did know where free Tibet as
I just more for you equals
shoes.
Now many people those off 3rd
it was a 3rd or 4th game Daryl.
Morey call me. He is
the guy the GM actually like
the for the first time he
tweeted a system of home caught
yet Daryl Worley was the GMA
used in who’s at the GM of
Philadelphia. He says he didn’t
beat reaches said. He does he’s
there in
Hong Kong. That’s little what
he said a cousin be a
150 million dollar. So
off the debt and you put a
statement out there and said we
share about free speech which
are bought or employee,
whatever. So he called me said
listen. NBA made me to my tweet
down them apologize they maybe
put some you know full
statements out there you don’t
apologize, you don’t put no
full statements you should do
what you do because you’re the
only acted is speaking out
about these issues.
If you told that certainly for
the gentlemanly card not much
actually wow I should.
He should is he okay with you
tell him that I don’t
think so yeah I was on my
though he didn’t say don’t tell
anybody back yeah
because maybe he does want you
to say because he feels bad you
want to sacrifice an entire
career. For that you know,
maybe I don’t know he did a
great job in Houston. They have
not been the same since exact
now Philadelphia suddenly found
their spine and
they’re contending so he
obviously knows what he’s doing
I know he’s an amazing GM
actually actually met him face
to face.
In one of the event’s he’s
actually a very brave person we
don’t what will be very good
for him to say hey we could
probably use a 6.11 guy coming
off the bench and they need to
use old they do Joel MB
got hurt. Yeah we’ll be out
probably the first game of
their playoff series against
the Celtics right so like that
will be my dream to go against
the team that I actually that
that the release me so it
will be I don’t know we’ll see
what happens. Yeah, a huge if
this is your manager talking
about would you sacrifice cut
>> I’m a firm believer at the
end of the day.
>> Decency prevails this is a
guy who sacrificed his life.
He’s fighting its government’s
when he doesn’t need to you can
just collect a paycheck.
He was never about a month.
Never they just truly did not
care which is why he donated
everything. He was a very
humble lifestyle.
>> So but did he try to get you
not to do this.
I mean he loved basketball
she’s like are you sure you
want to do this you sure this
is the path that you want to go
tell us like listen man this is
bigger than myself bigger than
basketball beget an MBA you got
to do this because while we are
comfortably playing basketball
in this country. On the other
side of the world. There’s a
chance that happening to
3 million Muslims are in
concentration camps get in
torture and rape every day
and no one talking about
obviously the organs exactly
and that’s what you wrote an
issues. Yes of course the
organist you convince you that
could be in training camp next
year. I am what almost
100% sure and is he still
called the teams to make sure
they haven’t budged
I mean, especially the ones
like Olivia Wilde I had an
agent so he’s he’s a manager
right so in basketball that
manager and there’s an agent so
my agent, we drop each other.
So he doesn’t represent me more
beautiful, you have any working
I don’t even have an agent
working with me. So here’s Adam
silver on you wearing sneakers
cut 41.
>> That breaking a rule in
terms of the shoes. There’s no
rule of aware of you’re look
again and they were all.
>> A business.
>> Well so that was a little of
his his focal the you yes so I
mean he’s even like mitt and I
see at the end we are business
so use say that
but you know what I were to
shoes MVP of the players
Association actually which I
give it houses of dollars every
month to protect my rights
against the NBA. Called me and
said nba’s pressure must do not
wear those shoes ever again.
If you do we want to change
rules. So no one can put
anything on the shoes. So they
were talking about changing to
hold holds rules just because
of my shoot right that’s how
crazy got you know a lot of
people wouldn’t take black
lives matter of their shoes
that they did there’s more
repression that would have been
that’s a total head fake so
those are some of things that
have happened you’re how old 31
30 30.
So you’ve got at least 5 Muslim
what I did that I was 29 right
and here’s the crazy thing
if they do use a lot of people
go play in Europe go play in
Japan due brothers in Japan,
but that’s a problem you
traveling to Europe is an issue
security wise. I could only
state in the country more than
I can not see the country more
to
3 days because of I had a
conversation off the does hope
that bounty news I had a
conversation with FBI with some
of the friends, they said when
you go there first of all did
not pose if you bought it to
wait till you leave.
And then after that he said you
know you can not stand comes
more than 3 days. Well. So I
want to talk about her can we
come back because I was hoping
her to one
would die. we had some time lot
of down on camera there’s a big
election coming up there is not
a friend to the United States
is more of a friend of Russia.
>> And yet he remains in AM a
member of NATO stopping Sweden
from coming on board. We come
back more with and his kid to
freedom end can I just talk
about one thing basketball.
It’s going great to see the
>> In his mouth to your years, it’s Brian kilmeade.
>> In response. The world,
including possible that you
might think are relatively ease
some of the United States, the
speech laws are Draconian
England is quite different I
won’t name any why we protected
them they have
to prove libel in England where
I sit here it’s almost a month.
But yeah, I wouldn’t want to
say the wrong thing you could
be sued easier in France.
I think if you deny the
Holocaust which I think is
important but I also think it
should be part of free speech.
You can be thrown into jail I
really can’t emphasize this
enough, we must we must protect
free and free speech only
matters it’s an irrelevant when
it’s someone you don’t like.
>> Saying something worse like
because obviously speech that
you like tz the thing about
censorship is that for those
who had just remember at some
point that will return on you.
>> That is un must with Bill Maher on the show and its Here. To starting that you obviously
us names freedom. You agree
with that of course, yeah and
the difference is even to mock
Russ ease
a little bit different but Elon
musk speaking out what he found
out a few men found the twitter
files when he found out the
role the government was playing
the FBI was doing that
Democrats were doing with that
social media outlet most likely
like facebook
that’s devastating.
>> It is very devastating.
I mean I do I try I did I do
try to follow a little bit
obviously because of the
language is little tough for
me, but I think what they were
doing is pretty much like
censorship right right and as
like I cannot believe this is
happening soon or tweet or
something else is to blame for
his country the world this is
happening in America. We keep
talking about our First
Amendment freedom of speech
right. So China they took the
Boston Celtics. Officer off
China because of that. So now
you have a situation.
We have a situation right now
in
this country. We were debating
about who is going to be next
who’s going to be the next one
to lead our country. But in
China in particular.
They have the weegar’s it seems
like the whole world forgot
about him is there
any representation, working the
refs in Congress about the
waivers so that was the one
subject like you said was just
really blew my mind all the
Muslim leaders out there meet
Lee’s or anywhere in the world
was talking about all the
problems were happening
to to all the like the issues
but when it comes to one
specific topic we lose their
silent because of their skin of
China. But it’s
yes I do have so many
conversation with many of the
brave. Congressmen and senators
and in America that we are
trying to figure it out because
talking about his good it
brings awareness of and we will
always like what can we do to
bring actually some mcconkey
actions right so we try to pass
some legislation some bills
to help those people or turkey
or no one had like a breakdown
on television us and you see
the whole talk in the Middle
East is Turkish election
because or to one is not going
to step aside any will lose.
I mean if there is fair
elections. He was going to lose
I had made a conversation with
so many leaders and they said
the fair elections, he’s those
he’s losing because 6 parties
in Turkey came together to
score gains want. There’s that
sick of them.
I mean he’s blocking
international observers and
many people believe that
there’s not going to be fair
elections in churches so I’m
just praying for my country at
this point right when is it.
14 say 4 teens who are coming
up and they’ll be great for
NATO to us yet to figure the
next leader is going to be
better leader. I want you to
hear just has to happen in
basketball for second.
As you know Xian us in the.
No number one seed Milwaukee
bucks last year. And this
is what he said the post-game
press conference do you view
this season as a failure you
get that promotion of the a new
job, no tight Soviet you want
to see if any of us will know
every year to work you want
some things to say goal which
is to get a promotion to be
able
>> they can of
your family provide the House
for to take it up and it’s what
was it will
he’s not the failure of steps
to success Michael Jordan take
15 years 1,
6 temps up that the news was a
that’s it then there’s no
failure in sports, you know,
there’s good days bad days of
these some days you are able be
successful. So that you’re not.
So this is your turn to does
not return. And that’s what
sports about you don’t always
win some of us that want to
come back next it had to be but
the threat to build good habits
you know I hope so easy that
means for meager means I love
you know selling Street how do
you feel about that I love it,
I mean you’ve got to have good
days and bad days, but you can
never ever give up on your
dreams like you and there’s no
fairly busy with a number one
seed yes, well that
>> kind of like a failure that
is one but 2. But you always
learn you always doing some
kind of experience you know
because there were a number one
seed and they relax it thought
their focus on the
championship. They were not
focus in on
that curent you playoff games
but they lost will now next
year he they’re going to learn
about you know the focus in on
the games that how do you not
the championship, 15 seconds is
going to be worriers so they
can tell you feel about that
whole thing was everywhere just
go I’m going with warriors lot
of experience lot of should I
don’t think the Lakers get
stuff that makes the.
>> I’m gonna go
of its. I mean and ago we’ll
repeat all and his candor
freedom we’re going to watch
your show on FOX nation.
