Have y'all seen the picture of Dennis coming to America? [LAUGHTER] When he came into the game, I was looking at like, he had like 3 or 4 braids or something and they stopped, you know, like meet the neck braids that lock. I was just looking like, man, these guys are dead wrong. They're going to let Dennis come in the game with those braids like that. But if you know anything about Dennis, Dennis is very headstrong. And so as we're walking off the court, Dennis, I think he was projecting because he then stands up to me and was like, "Yo, what you—" And I'm like, "Dennis, why are you coming to talk to me about hair? Who lets you do that to your head? Like, these guys, they don't like you because they let you do this to your hair." And he's like, "No, you need to go bald." I said, "That's fine, I could go bald, but who lets you do this?" You know, Dennis, we know you went to Turkey and got the hair plugs because we saw your hairline coming when you were coming to America. Nonetheless, we weren't arguing at all. That was funny. Oh.
