Aaron Gordon: iPhone or Android?
[MUSIC]
All right, we are here with Aaron Gordon, Orlando Magic, and in my opinion a Slam dunk champion.
[LAUGH]
All right, all right.
[CROSSTALK] I feel like you guys both really earn that.
Nah, it's okay.
No more victories for me.
No.
[LAUGH]
I don't like more victories.
You'll send the trophy this way.
None of this, more over here.
Well, maybe I could routine myself.
Okay.
So, are you saying you might gotta head back in for next year?
Maybe.
Okay, okay, right on.
We just saw you kind of here in the motion capture session for 2K17, just From your experience, what was that like?
Was it the first time you've done anything like this?
Yeah.
I mean it's not the first time I've been on like promotion centers, but for video games?
Yeah, for sure.
You know I've been playing 2K since I was a little kid, so I had the chance to come out here and put motion sensors on to be more authentic towards the game.
I jump for joy, and it's fun, super fun.
We come from a tech background, CNET and everything.
And we always like to ask athletes what is your favorite phone?
Are you an Android guy, are you an iPhone guy-
I'm iPhone.
iPhone guy?
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
What do you like about it the most?
Accessibility.
It's very user friendly.
It's easy.
You see toddlers being able to play an iPads and iPhones now.
So it's just easy for me.
It's simple.
Obviously seeing a lot of phones get bigger screens.
Mm-hm.
You are a big dude, you know.
Yeah I have a brick, my phone- [LAUGHS]
What'd you got?
It's the biggest iPhone possible.
Yeah, You got the plus right?
Yeah exactly.
But it feels good for you right?
You like the big screened phones?
Yeah its great.
You got the beautiful screen.
Are there any other apps
Whether they're fun games or something like mental training or any other ones that you really like to get into when they're on the road.
I used to play Clash of Clans.
[LAUGH] I used to play, but then it was just taking over my entire life, so I had to delete it.
They're like we need you to get into your workout session
But
One second dragons are coming.
[LAUGH]
[LAUGH] Here's another thing, social media we know is a big deal, it obviously just exploded when you and Zach were going at it at the dunk fest.
What are your thoughts on social media?
Like how involved are you personally in it?
A little bit, I try not to spend too much time on social media because I like to live my life.
[LAUGH] You know I see people all the time like just In the middle of a conversation face down and Twitter, Instagram.
But I check it once or twice a day.
Alright and finally, I know I'm kind of putting you on the spot here, but if you could think of one thing your phone could do for you that it doesn't do today.
My iPhone?
Yeah!
Wireless charging.
If there was a wireless charger for an iPhone.
