He then included his 19-year-old son in the conversation, saying, "You know, I have a son who's 6-foot-9. He always says, 'Dad, I'm not that tall compared to some of these guys' ... and now, I understand what he's talking about."
Everyone present there laughed at the playful joke. Afterwards, he finished his speech by congratulating the team.
