I think you mean MBA. You have a master's? Oh, which? No, NBA. You know, basketball? Oh, basketball. More of a pickleball guy myself. Tough sport, huh? Yeah. Great cardio, though. Oh, you have no idea. OK, so what attracts you to Google? Pros that help keep me dialed in. So I thought, what if everybody had that? Not just the lucky few, everybody. You mean a full-stack panel of experts delivering personalized— That's right. That's right. Oh, wow. Hang on a roll. You shouldn't interrupt the big guy. Wow. That's so good. Do you wanna pick that up and get this sort of thing as she's— Meanwhile, we'll run it in. But I mean, if you wanna go, I'm gonna let you go on this one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You were telling me about performing under pressure. Just the look is really good. It's very funny. I need to stay there. Give me one more of those, Alison. What's your preferred work style? Very good. I did notice that you wore shorts to this interview. Great. Do you have any questions for me? Favorite Splash Brother? Favorite Splash Brother? Is that like a water park? So good. All right, cut. Cut, cut, cut. Coach McKillop. What is happening, good sir? Nothing good. What's up? It's a pretty good one. Gemini's hooking you up. Well, understand, statistics are like the keys. They show you— There he is, going to get it. I need that one in the vault. It's gonna happen. Okay, here we go. We're gonna do some celebration really quick. So as though you just got one right, give me a big variety of let's go, come on, just celebrate. That's right, right? That's right. Yes, sir. I knew that one. I knew that one. Over the top.

True or false, the 2022 championship team had a higher average height than the 2015 team? False. Yes, we were not— You were right there with that one. Our height was not our strong suit, but we overcame came. You know, that was your problem at Davidson too. You were skinny, you were weak, you were short. The 2022 team was an inch shorter than the 2015 team. That makes sense. All right. Yeah, that's going to be easy because he's straight on. Oh, 100%. You don't have to worry about the angle. I was going to tell somebody the angle, but you got it. All right, here we go. And 3, 2, 1, action! At warmups, I get passes from the same guy. He even take the same toner shot. What up, Curtis? Ooh, made it! Nice. Hey, cut, cut, cut. It looked like it was— I knew it. Hey, I knew once you get warm, that's all it is, you know what I'm saying? Man, me and Curtis go way back to the Oracle, Rorical, Coliseum, Drive days. Monte Ellis was the first one that did the tunnel shot. After shootarounds, he'd do it where he'd throw it backwards. Took it to a whole 'nother level. And then I, like my third or fourth year, started doing it during pregame warmups. Curtis worked the tunnel where the players come out And so I'd always kind of throw him the ball before I turned around to shoot it, and he, he kind of played it up where eventually I started to see him have a little routine where he grabbed the ball, twisted around, grabbed one hand, and then scoop pass it to me, and it became a thing. He was shooting, uh, the shot, and I kind of inquired about, uh, the shot itself. So one day he He just passed me the ball and all of a sudden it became a ritual. I had 5 shots to make it before I went back to the locker room before the game. And obviously it started to catch on, but it was always Curtis, Oracle. And obviously when we moved to Chase, things changed a little bit, but he's always a part of my history and Warrior history as the tunnel usher, but the best assist man. In the game. So they want to try that one, they want to try that one more time. Just change, switch the chain. All right, here we go. You see Method Man? They said you look like Method Man. Every shoot, every single shoot. Don't touch either. But I can touch this. You can touch that. That you can rest your finger. That's always my finger there, yeah. And then whenever you start, go down a little bit. Getting fresh, mate. That's as close as we can— uh-oh. That thing will pop out. See, I can do it. Here we go. You don't need a prop. I don't need a prop. You get it right there. 10, 3, 2, 1, action! We don't always use the exact same body double. It doesn't even look like me. Hi, I'm Stephen Curry. Beautiful. Cut. All right, here we go in 3, 2, 1, action. We don't always use the exact same body double. It doesn't even look like me. Hi, I'm Stephen Curry. And cut, cut, cut. Oh my gosh. I was bracing for that. And he couldn't stop cracking up. I was like, come on. And 3, 2, 1, action. I get it. It's hard to change. Me, I'm pretty loyal. Been on the same team for 17 years. Had the same coach for 11. Never changed my number once. All right, moving on to the golf simulator. All right, moving on to golf. Moving on to golf. Where we going again? Excuse me, please. Everybody's awesome.
