00:00How do you reflect on your time with the Heat?
00:02Just, you know, went to two different finals,
00:04all the conference finals,
00:05but then also, obviously, the way things ended.
00:08I'm straight.
00:09I don't got too many bad things to say about them.
00:11I don't.
00:12They gave me opportunity.
00:14I felt like I did my job to the highest level.
00:16I have so much respect for that organization,
00:18for the people that's running that organization,
00:20and for my former teammates,
00:22and I'ma always wish them the best.
00:23But I got a lot of love for a lot of people
00:25over there in that organization,
00:26and I just want them to know
00:28that I'm very grateful for the relationships
00:30that I have built,
00:31and that I'll keep for a lifetime.
00:33So, what was it that made you want to leave then?
00:38That's a good question, actually.
00:39That is a good question.
00:40I don't know.
00:41Maybe just a lot of talking back and forth,
00:44and sooner or later, talking's gotta stop.
