00:00Now, let's talk about, actually, I guess, nobody really hit anybody in this altercation,
00:05but, of course, afterwards, the buzzer sounds, the Bucs lose, Giannis is on the floor,
00:12and Tyrese Halliburton's dad, who I guess does this often, I guess when the game ends,
00:17he comes out on the floor and waves his towel around or whatever he does,
00:21is he got right in front of Giannis and started waving the towel and saying some unchoice things to him,
00:26which then caused Giannis to kind of get in his face and kind of lean his head up against his.
00:33Let's hear from Halliburton first, because I thought he also, Scotty, Giannis was great,
00:38which we'll hear in a moment. I thought Halliburton handled it well, too, saying, you know,
00:42enough with my dad, can you please just, what you did was absolutely wrong.
00:46I think the emotions of the game just got excited there, but I'll talk with him, I'll talk with Giannis
00:52eventually about it, just, you know, I don't think that my pops was in the right at all there,
00:57and unfortunate, you know, what happened in the end there, but, I mean, this series was a lot of war of words,
01:02a lot of war of antics, a lot of stuff going back and forth, and that's just part of, you know,
01:08this rivalry and what we've built here over the last couple of years, and, you know,
01:13it's unfortunate what happened there, but I think it's just competition, and as far as my pops,
01:18again, I don't agree with what happened there, we'll have a conversation, you know, everybody's
01:22grown men, and, you know, we'll just go from there.
01:25Listen, I think his dad is a male organ of the month club, let's just get him a membership
01:32right now, and a locker, and a parking spot, and the male organ of the month club, he goes
01:38out there, first of all, he's all of about five foot tall, and he's waving his flag, and
01:43dropping F-bombs, and saying this is what we F-ing do, and then, you know, getting
01:48in the face of a guy that's that enormous, and that it would beat his ass in, like, five
01:55seconds, and then, also, a guy that's, you know, won MVPs and championships, the guy won
02:04a title, so I thought the way that Giannis handled it, in the moment, I think, when he talked to
02:11him in his face, he was like, you know, it's very disrespectful, you're out of your mind,
02:19you're out of your league, you shouldn't be doing this, I think that was all he was saying to him,
02:23I thought the thing that was the most embarrassing for me was watching TNT, and listening to Shaquille
02:29O'Neal, try to side with the father, and, like, how stupid are you, dude? Like, because I think
02:37he's a really smart guy, and that he's marketed himself terrifically, he does millions of commercials,
02:42he's the face of everything, pizza, commercials, and all the rest, he does the Icy Hot, the Papa
02:47John, it does everything, what doesn't he do? He does everything, he's everywhere, he's making
02:52hundreds of millions of dollars, great, but him trying to defend that father last night, that
02:58Giannis was saying things to him, and that he does this all the time, and gets in players' faces,
03:04it's still unacceptable, I think it makes, I think it makes him look like an absolute tool of a father,
03:10and I think that it makes his son look like a tool as well, he's embarrassing his son, and I think
03:17trashing his son's name while he's doing it, but I still thought the way Giannis told the story
03:22Edwards was perfect, I thought the way he handled it was perfect, like, I thought it was classy.
