Hello, welcome to the collective podcast. We talk about the NBA, which we're

recording here on Monday. First off, I just want to thank everybody who was a part of the live

podcast that we did last week in Akron, Ohio. If you haven't seen it or heard it, it's available on the channels and feeds.

We had a great turnout, great reaction.

It was a really wonderful night with Larry Nance and Keith Danbrae and Bonk

McPemson McMahon. So definitely check that out. We had a great time. I'm glad we did that.

We'll never do it again until I get talked to do it again.

So also last week I recorded an interview with Demartar Rosen, Sacramento King's new

wing, which as I told him as you'll hear in in a second still feels weird to say.

He has a new book out.

It's a book that is unlike most player-written book.

This is not a book you normally would see a player right in the middle of his career and is, you know, it's not like a tragic book, but certainly a lot of sad parts in it for a guy who you generally

think has had a really good career some of the stuff he's struggled with we have a really good

conversation especially about his childhood and a little bit about what's going on with him now and what's happened with him from his departure from the Bulls and over to the Kings.

So we've got that coming up here. This was recorded last week. Thank tomorrow for his time and I hope you enjoy this interview with Tamartrosin.

Okay, joining us now, as we were mentioning from the Sacramento Kings doesn't still doesn't sound right

to Mar de Rosin Sacramento King how's that how's that sound to you right now

still getting used to but you know I'm looking forward to you know give me a couple

months you know I make it normal yeah it's gonna be weird to see you in a

King's Jersey I'm not gonna lie for some reason it's just that although it's it's home right it's you you're back in California after all this time.

Yeah after all this time you know made it in California one way or another.

I'm looking forward to it.
