your stuff together you the man now but you ain't going to be the man forever and the worst thing in life is not to be broke the worst thing in life is to tast some success and you got to go back to being a nobody that's our I'm going to say it again cuz I want to make sure you catch it it's one thing to be broke but you first pick with the second pick in the 2012 NBA draft select Anthony Davis the Charlotte popcat select Michael kid Gilchrist it is the first time ever that the top two picks in the NBA draft have come from the same school Bradley Fields celebrates his 19th birthday an emotional moment for Dion Waiters I ain't stopping for nobody I got work to do and I'm the [Music] door I'm not the best I'm not the brightest it took me 12 years to get a fouryear degree and I'm running circles around the dude who graduated from Michigan State as suum going to the league since you kid they hooking you up with stuff you even have to pay for stuff like stuff you should have had to pay for you have to pay for because they knew you was coming to the leag and now what happens is you going to face some adversity out there that Mama can't get you out of that Daddy can't he can't rescue you when you get out there and game five he can't rescue you when you on the free throw line you by yourself you by yourself and you in their territory and the crowd is CH mama can't save you now daddy can't save you [Music] now what's wrong with some of y'all you so gifted you so gifted that's your problem your gifness is going to kill you because why you gift it what you got to understand is GI will only take you so far you got to have heart to win a championship to go to the final you got it's got to be more than just this and this it's got to go from here and here cuz everybody say we want to win it all everybody say they number one we going to be number one you got to hear you got to hear but some of y'all ain't got to hear and it ain't until you get here that you become a [Music] champion I'm not the smartest but you will not outwork me I wake up every morning at 3:00 we got home from the University of Cincinnati at 2:45 I still didn't go to bed at 3:00 I went on my walk my hour and a half walk with God came back in did some work are you hearing me you might be smarter your family might come from privilege your Daddy might own a company but you will not outwork me you will not have more Drive than I have more passion than I have and I'll beat you every single day because I got passion you will not wake up in the morning cuz you spoiled you will not get up before 8 you will not get up before 6 I will outre you you push up every day I'm going I'm doing more and more each day I'm trying to do them so I can't do them no more I'm doing situps every day I will outwork you but I'm telling you if you go out there and like Cal you show up they can't outwork you if you win 70 they can't outwork you with you know there a whole lot of NBA players but you ever notice when you watch the game there just some guys they just on a whole different type of level right and when I study I'm so I'm going to give you three things I'm letting you go I'm going to give you three things that's within these people that make them do what they do and one of the things if you've ever watched Michael Jordan if you've ever watched Kobe and I'm not a fan of either of the two but I love greatness [Music] you ain't the only one doing what you doing and there's some kid who didn't get to come here and he pissed that he didn't get to come here he thought he should be here too and guess what he doing why you in here listening to me why you getting your shoes why you getting your wife Joy gear why you feel like yep I made it I'm one of the top 20 babies that's some kid who didn't get to make it and why now he trying to take your spot right now he said yep he beat me to the classic but I get him in the NCA I get him next year if I don't get him in I get him after that and I see him in the pros and I get him in are you hearing what I'm saying so you got an opportunity but you got to separate [Music] yourself and so I'm telling you that this listen to me very closely the one my sweetest commercial that MJ did you know the commercial where you know m is talking about how he made the game look he apologized for making it look [Music] so I'm from Detroit I can't stand Michael Jordan we probably would have won about four championships had it not been you know what I'm saying Isaiah Thomas Michael wave Vinnie Michael wave we had the spider we had it going on Rick Mahorn I mean we was murdering them Michael Jordan came in was like no I'm telling you don't get get get get from the ca thing and I dare you I dare you for one time in your career I dare you to exhaust yourself I dare you to I dare you to leave every single thing on the field one season everything walk off exhaust like Mike when he got 45 with the flu he had the flu like for real let's be honest one of your players got the flu and they tell you I got the flu I can't play you like cool I understand we'll catch you next game Mike was like I got this don't worry about it but Mike you got the flu my flu is still better than your normal game right whatever your little game is my flu going to outo your game so I'm going to play play the thing I love most about M Jordan was the last time he lost to the business he cried and he walked off the court with the tears in his eyes you know that one when you lose and you ain't even got no sportsmanship you know that one nor you know you lose you just man up you you don't want to shake that head but you do it anyway cuz that's a part of the game but when you get so when you get so tired of losing when you get pissed when you can't take losing no more you lose the whole little shaking the hand and you just walk off and Mike walked off with a tear in his eye and let me tell you something he walked off and said to himself this will be the last time the Pistons ever beat me again dare you I dare you to show up listen to me I dare you to to to just say you know what I'm not going to save nothing this year I I ain't going to save nothing this year I'm everything I got coach getting everything all everything whatever they ask me to do I'm doing that Beyond I'm Le I'm when I leave this year I ain't going to have nothing left and why do I say that I I'm I'm a runner I I I run long distance some days when I run man I go 6 s when I finish I'm not breathing hard raise your hand if you know what I'm talking about I just finished doing six miles but I'm not breathing hard raise your hand you know exactly what I'm talking about no raise your hand if you've ever experienced it you've done what you supposed to do but at the end of the day you not really breathing real hard raise your hand mhm you did you put the workout in you did exactly what you supposed to do you did your exercise you did your rep but you you good tell me if you know a time when you ran so hard you worked so hard that you felt your chest after you finished you felt your heartbeat like you ever work so hard you felt that blood like you could taste blood you work so hard right you sweating and you knew when you finished you had to sit down and get you something to drink cuz you knew you didn't have no more again raise your hand if you had that [Applause] experience it's all about desire you just got to come out here and do what you got to do we wanted it real bad you know and and me as a leader I had to come out and do my best somehow found the energy just stay strong I wanted it really bad are you hearing me there's greatness in you and you mean to tell me you're never going to reach your full potential you mean to tell me you're never going to be what you've been called to be that you're not going to do what you've been called to do because you are afraid listen to me the boogeyman ain't real that's why I need you to I need you to understand that you can have it for real you can have it but it's it's going it's going to be a fight and if you willing to put up the fight I'm telling you at the end of the fight it's going to come [Music] victory
