I don’t think any of us scored… I didn’t score. He goes up one. Two. Every game was to three. So I’m like ‘come on man’. He starts backing me down, then he just jumps up. And I’m jumping. He banged on me – two hands. And I couldn’t be happier. I got banged on by Michael Jordan… I’ve never failed so lovely.”
