00:0015 minutes of heat here for you brought to you by the lexus december to remember sales event get
00:04offers on select models for a limited time learn more at lexus.com miami heat got nba cup action
00:13tonight against the orlando magic again well so who's is everybody uh in it sounds like we got a
00:24full slate today and maybe drew smith might be out here's can i just tell you already i'm sensing
00:32a problem do tell
00:35i'm gonna say this but i'm gonna say it and it's not what i think of a player or what i think of
00:45the situation but it seems like when they try to
00:54incorporate tyler they sometimes it's clunky and i don't know if you can afford that and i don't
01:07know what the fix is well to be fair i mean they missed the last couple they didn't play very good
01:12without them right you know but then who else did um they missed a couple guys the last game
01:18against the kings which was a a horrid embarrassment they didn't have davion they didn't have pella
01:22now i'm gonna say this and i know a lot of people might not agree with this
01:29but the guy you need the most is davion oh i don't disagree with that he's he's been incredible he is
01:35the fire starter he is the lockdown guy he is the deterrent he is all those things and every now
01:44and then he might make hit a couple of threes but that's not that's not why he's there and those guys
01:50know those guys feed off of his energy when he's not playing they look very like blah i i don't disagree
02:00with you i think he's he's been the catalyst for a lot of what they do so if he's playing
02:06are we thinking that regardless of what the combination is that because he's playing it's
02:13going to work out because he is i think the guy he's just so unselfish and he's just all about
02:20setting everybody up like i don't think he's ever going to be a deterrent for either guy that he's with
02:25and it does feel like at least the way that they started the last time around with tyler
02:29uh is that they will start the three guards with wiggins at the four and bam at the five
02:34and then tyler's out pretty quickly like in four minutes and then he's going to set up to go in
02:38with the second unit right so it's kind of a token thing or starting or if we get one of these because
02:43you know if that game starts off crappy no well and also this is a game like they lost the the big
02:52news out of this one franz is out franz is a badly busted ankle can i just say something to
02:57alejandro solana what do you say stop calling him franz he calls him franz yes franz why because he's
03:06solana but that's not his name he calls him franz go listen i like i was in the car and i'm like are
03:14you leaving franz franz he plays for germany franz he couldn't be more franz that's what you did
03:22there that's what you did there huh franz well uh bam on a bio this was him yesterday this was him
03:29on the nba cup he's a nice little breakup in the regular season yeah because it definitely you know
03:35i mean i take every game serious but you know i know nba has this sort of like dry season uh i feel
03:42like it's good for us you know it gives us something else to compete for uh not just
03:46regular season wins it's more you know middle of season cup and you know guys can look forward to it
03:53all right six o'clock is your game time tonight both these teams 14 and 10 on the year but the
03:58magic have beat the heat twice orlando's a point and a half favorite and then they beat them twice by
04:05a total of what four points yeah very close game yeah so that's why they're a point and a half
04:08um and then tonight at 8 30 the knicks are in toronto for their quarterfinals knicks are four
04:15and a half point road favorites that's a good game too these are good these are good cup games
04:19and then on the west coast tomorrow you got a well not west coast but the western conference
04:24suns thunder phoenix suns phoenix playing yeah phoenix playing good no booker though
04:30uh so suns thunder and then uh the oh my god the 23 and one i know okay see they won you see what
04:40they did to portland without without shay what do they do they blew them out by like 30 oh my god
04:46it it was it portland or utah it was portland in portland the crazy thing about this is this is
04:53probably the most frightening thing about okc most of their team is under 30 so they're just
05:04getting into their prime and they're getting the clippers first round pick right that's insane and
05:09the clippers are terrible i'm looking at it right now this is like you know what it is it's like a
05:12classic like college football team that gets to feast on like a mid-major because i'm looking at
05:18it's just like gonzaga playing out with i'm looking at their bench and like everybody on
05:22their bench has double digit points in this game like chet and jalen williams did their thing
05:26but they each had 25 but then the bench is like 14 13 11 19. oh jeez louise right crazy
05:33jeez and 10 30 is what lakers birds nurkich is on the jazz huh yeah uh yes lakers and spurs i think
05:42when binyama is getting close isn't he so he might be i think he might be creeping back
05:50they didn't play last night well they're playing the pelicans though you're not gonna you want to
05:53they lost right they almost lost they almost lost derrick queen had a really good game yeah he's the
05:57first center to ever have a 30 as a center to have a 30 point triple double as a rookie let's see
06:03really yeah i just read it um i just made that up no that's it listen i thought that doesn't
06:10i'm shocked he's saying something positive about mr queen what mr queen you know why nah it says he's
06:18still out because he's still out that sucks that sucks yeah i'm so i'm shocked you're saying good
06:23things about mr queen and his uh his size why because of his size portly but he's easy he's young
06:33hey he ain't got his i'm gonna tell you this bled a lot of players come into the league i came into
06:41the league and i looked a little portly right it's just the way my body was i didn't weigh a whole lot
06:50but it just looked that way as i got a couple of off seasons in me where i ain't worrying about school
06:56and whatever and all i was doing was working out playing football then i got my man body
07:01schmiefen says this cup is this cup nonsense faker than the s uh the cfp committee
07:06i look i i don't get it it take like i'll tell you one thing the tiebreakers all that stuff was
07:14mind numbing even eric spolscher was like i was exhausted i was watching the game i didn't know if
07:18we were in or out i couldn't tell somebody let me know but uh we'll see i i want to see if the
07:23heat's in vegas obviously that'll be kind of cool i will say nicks that'd be fun
07:27heat makes that would be fun and then you get lakers thunder and the other and the opposite
07:31round be fun and be happy prime would be happy then okc lose the cup last year they they lost
07:37did to milwaukee right um eric spolscher said something yesterday about the team's defense he
07:43was talking about the where bam pairing hold on did he get all dude mike mcdaniel on us yes and i
07:51gotta tell you if i heard all them damn championships we would be saying the same stuff you have to listen
07:56to this quote and tell me what you think about this because i thought this was a crazy quote from
08:00him when he was talking about bam on the bio he's basketball mike mcdade or i should say mike mcdade
08:05is spo is football spoke bam is is really the guy that uh anchors everything for us defensively um
08:16you know i've said it to the team we would be an incredible defensive team if bam could defend
08:23the pick and roll with the fives but if he could also be on the weak side uh being the weak side
08:29defender uh at the same time um i don't think that's possible you know to split them and have
08:36them guard two areas at once we would also be really good if davion could guard the ball and then also guard
08:42who they bring up on a switch um so i'm trying to figure out how to make those those things happen
08:48in the meantime we have the ability uh to improve across the board um and commit to that
08:56that's the same with that that pairing so is he saying they're really good or the other guys suck
09:05no he was taking a shot at his team well he said he told the team he goes you know what'd be great
09:10if you were all bam and i was like wait you told that to the team like two bams two davions that's
09:19a good defense he said we could split yeah i'm like davion's already he's slight he's all and he's
09:26also already running all over the place like a crazy person i mean but i heard i heard that i'm like
09:31wait a minute i understand what you're saying no you don't but no you don't but i'll stop stop
09:38trying to be oh because you like smoke you no way in hell you know what the hell he's talking
09:44about i understand ideally he's like you would like two bams we'd all like two davions you know
09:50what this is you want to talk about ring protection this is ring protection because let me tell you
09:56something if mike mcdain would have said that about any player tobin would have flipped out so
10:02here's i need to know this is this energy transfer from sitting so close to spolstra
10:10at heat game when he sits right next to the heat bench that mike mcdaniel's aura is starting to
10:16infiltrate like they hang out too much i just don't know maybe he's just when during a timeout he's
10:22looking at spo and he's trying to you know think the same thing as spo and this is why spo was
10:26talking like him because that made absolutely no sense why did he just say look i got two great
10:33defenders the rest of them aren't that good i wish they all could that's basically what he said that's
10:38basically what he said and no i i'm with you so what if you and what if you're wiggins yeah that's
10:44i thought he got a drive-by i mean what about kalal as much as we praise kalal now you just threw
10:52him under the bus so i consider wiggins one of the best two-way players in the league he said that
10:58recently right didn't you throw him under the bus and say i need two and you know you're good you
11:04know bam out of bio you're good but i'd rather have two bams and two davions two davions they would
11:12pick and roll him to death oh but we would we would we would fight through so many screens there'd be
11:18like people would foul out because he'd just fight through all the screens oh my goodness he gets
11:22like he gets two or three of those you know what's sad about davion he would be perfect for the riley
11:27era heat oh yeah he's no he's a menace but i just thought i was like wait it wasn't that he said it to
11:34the media can i ask you this how many times did you listen to that oh like because like six or seven
11:38because i i just picture you chopping up the sound right and go wait wait wait what i i saw the quote
11:47yesterday first on anthony chang's twitter and it was like i thought the guy had to be a joke but
11:52then i'm like he doesn't sound like he's joking he sounds like but the the the part of the clip
11:57that makes me the happiest about this wackiness that he's saying is i told the team which means
12:04he was at one point in a meeting watching the film and he just goes
12:09what's wrong spo
12:16i just wish we had two bams what yeah that'd be great you know it would be solving if uh we had
12:23two bams that'd be great i was like what you're right sorry and two davions and norman powell and and
12:33and and tyler hero and andrew wiggins are like jesus what man i guess tyler can understand that
12:41comment norman powell not so much and wiggins that's his shot bro i mean like
12:51powell's defense is okay but he's got a bigger he got a bigger body than tyler yeah he tries he tries
13:00he tries okay he's not what he was in toronto and by the way by the way tyler stop stretching
13:06your arms out like you're playing block down deep like he comes up with some steals every once in a
13:12while but no you know it's it's literally stealing you know why because he goes and gets the other
13:18guy when he's guarded by someone else he's stealing from his off ball yeah you might be better off just
13:25like putting this water bottle right there on the court and just be like right
