The dialogue with West goes a few places:

• His new diet and what he has given up;

• The Warriors’ emotions and their relationships with the referees;

• The drama around the league and how it compares to when he first came into it;

• When he felt like the awakening of NBA players began;

• His breakdown of the Warriors bigs, especially Kevon Looney and Jordan Bell.
