“I gotta say amazing class, I wanted to be a part of it… You know, one of the best classes ever. I hate that Kob isn’t here to be able to experience that and for us to experience his presence.
“I got to go for the Hall of Fame induction for Ray [Allen]. And it’s a special thing just to see all the greats show up. It was like basketball avengers every year.
“… I know for sure it still would happen, but it’s just the amount of people that those guys inspired. I think if you take those three guys, the way they changed the game for guys in my generation, it was really really amazing.
“You know honored for those guys, very happy for them. I hate that Kobe is not here, kinda be a dark cloud over it. But still we should appreciate those guys’ accomplishments nonetheless. That’s a lot of hardware in that group right there.”
