You hear what I’m saying to you? You couldn’t get to a triple step again. After which for those who shot that s**t, it needed to go in. You understand why? As a result of we had effectivity, again within the day, my dude, and it was so f**king arduous.It was too bodily, and guess what? The league needed to come off of it for the movement of motion to have the ability to have scoring go up, which is why we like to sit down right here and watch sort of the rat race of the high-paced sport proper now.”
