Chung Sung-Jun/Getty ImagesThe European Tour is in Sun City, South Africa (A+ name) this week for the Nedbank Golf Challenge. The tournament, held at the Gary Player Country Club, is an important one for a number of reasons—most notably, it’s the penultimate event in the Race to Dubai and it’s part of the lucrative Rolex Series.

The best part of their discussion, though, involved the NBA, specifically the 2008 Finals that featured Damon's Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers. Simmons, who had obviously heard this tale before, asked Damon to reminisce about the time he and former Lakers head coach Phil Jackson “got into it.” We'll let Damon take it from there:
