00:00Luka Doncic joining forces with the Los Angeles Lakers is a seismic event in NBA history.
00:10He did it! It's Luka Magic! Ain't nobody in this game who's got a neck for doing stuff like that!
00:18How did he do it? How did he do it? That is Luka Magic!
00:26I was almost asleep so when I got a call, I had to check it was April 1st. I didn't really believe it at first.
00:42It is part of the business. It is a little shocking but like in a sense we have to push forward.
00:48JK and I, we've had a vision and a culture that we want to create since we've been here.
00:52Defense wins championships.
00:54It's still a grieving process right now. I miss my hermano. We had a lot of time together.
00:58We're bringing in one of the best two-way players in the league.
01:01Throw it down big guy! 3-on-1 against AD! Come on! It's not going to work!
01:07I was in shock, obviously. I had no idea what was happening. I'm kind of over it.
01:12I think we have a great opportunity to win a championship.
01:14Defense wins championships.
01:19It's loose! The one-runner Jimmy Butler!
01:24What was it that made you want to leave then?
01:26That's a good question, actually. That is a good question.
01:35Maybe just a lot of talking back and forth. Sooner or later, the talking's got to stop.
01:41I'm glad that I get the opportunity to get here and help get us to winning and do something special.
01:46I think that's why I'm here and I will do my best to do what everybody wants and that's to win a championship. I mean it.
01:54Fox to Fox from midcourt! Got it! Deidre Fox called game!
02:02With the way that they're built, with the athleticism, with the length that they have, and also the youth, I just felt like this could be a special team.
02:11It's a very unique opportunity. Not many guys come around like that.
02:17Ren will get it back. And with the buzzer!
02:20Unbelievable!
