Welcome back to No Chill with Gilbert Reenas. We're at the Blue Hour Studios at the

Winning for the Vegas NBA Summer League, and we are joined by a very, very special guest.

Mr. Coach for the Los Angeles Lakers, well-known for his amazing player development skills,

worked with some of the biggest names in the game. Phil Handy, we appreciate you pulling up.

Oh, Mr. Pleasure to be here, man. I appreciate you guys having me.

I'm kind of hateful of the new school, in a sense that in the scissors. I had to rebound my home

with my shots, but I mean, I'm in 2000s. Harvey Grant was my player, Sister Coach.

I didn't have that, bro. I went to Gill, we didn't have it. Now, look, it's a two-sided street,

So Gerg was, he was kind of that guy. You know, he was, he was the workout guy. If you wanted to

he was in the industry. There's guys like, guy named Gus Armstead, you know, go way, way back

in that part of the industry, skill development, that wasn't it. It was just guys work out guys.
