00:00uh jamie we haven't heard uh you from you yet we get uh jamie's in there in his heat sweater
00:04he's
00:04ready to roll uh he was all fired up man he was tell you texted me driving in this morning
00:09he was
00:10like i'm not gonna miss this one and uh jamie what uh what what are your thoughts here on on
00:15this uh this heat move what do you what do you got for him yeah i mean fired up's a
00:18good way to put
00:18it um all this talk about yannis is old and the heat gave up too much like he's a top
00:25five player
00:25in the nba i like i think the heat are going to be fine and i trust pat riley and
00:30the the heat
00:31front office to surround the team and make the team a championship contender so i this is this is funny
00:38right so i'm walking through the halls and you know everyone obviously has you know opinions on this
00:42this trade and um some are positive some are not for whatever reason um and the guy from one of
00:49the
00:49guys from power 96 not not dj zog uh someone else um was like oh they gave away too much
00:56uh what are
00:57they doing and uh like man like who was too much yeah like what what do you want like you
01:04want them
01:05to just kind of you know be a be the eight seed nine seed ten seed like every single year
01:10with this
01:10group that they've put together and i and i'm not saying that like they didn't do a good job getting
01:14some some talent on this team they were okay but man they were they were mediocre right
01:18i think would be the best word to describe them i i think they lacked like janice gives you
01:25a a huge level of excitement right um i think there's an excitement around this team that we
01:33haven't had for a little while now um you had look you had a rough ending with jimmy butler no
01:38question you had a rough year uh last year with um with with this uh this core team you know
01:45i'm just
01:46not like i'm not going to be upset about losing picks you know picks or whatever to a team like
01:51the heat i mean you're talking about like you know the 13th pick tonight who was it uh yaxo
01:55lomdenberg from uh from michigan like i'm not coming in tomorrow being like oh woohoo we got this guy
02:01from michigan like no we we got a guy who is a top five player in the nba i don't
02:06know where you
02:07want to rank him i don't do the rankings thing this morning but he's right in that conversation
02:10uh as top five definitely top 10 uh when jamie said top five i i thought thought jamie went a
02:17little too far top look i'm watching you honest they had like a top 10 that they just put together
02:22on sports center i mean this guy does stuff that you know we've never seen before and he's got a
02:28build his body build is something that we have um never really seen before and yes he he is 31
02:36years
02:36old um his birthday is right around mine um but he's 6 11 243 pounds officially here um so so
02:46almost seven feet tall and 250 pounds i mean like this is again this is kind of lebron-ish
02:51when you talk about his build omar and i i know you you spend a lot of time in locker
02:56rooms
02:57this is a very the way that he has put together this guy yannis and i know that injuries have
03:03been
03:03a problem i think that he is going to be okay later in his career because of the way that
03:08his
03:08body is put together his durability i think will will i i think he'll be okay down here and i
03:14think
03:14that he probably did their due diligence but omar that that sports body that he's got that's uh that's
03:18unrivaled his ability to drive to the basket and create his own shot i think that that's definitely
03:24what the heat need in order to close out these games um to me that was really the the the
03:30the death
03:31seal the death nail in the coffin for me about last year's team and keeping things status quo there
03:36was nobody to finish out games um obviously when you lose jimmy butler you you lose that kind of
03:42clutch mentality and now you got yannis here and bobby portis who's made some big shots throughout his
03:48career um it it it gives you guys who can finish games obviously putting them with bam out of bio
03:56um that's going to be a great building block now this whole andrew wiggins uh situation and and that
04:04makes me a little bit uncomfortable because uh you know when players opt out of contracts they're not
04:08doing you a favor but that's not true necessarily though omar you don't know like the guys are going
04:14to want to come here um and and join up with this team i do think they will get guys
04:20on the cheap
04:20who want to be here like i don't know that that's going to be an issue and uh just to
04:25touch on this
04:25too um i think there's three other active yannis brothers yes mistaken yes yes yes we're gonna have
04:33like the brotherhood there's danis danos uh castas and alex those are the ones that are that are playing
04:41basketball the third one's name was alex i don't hear you butcher uh costas or thanasis there with the
04:46other um oh marg where's your best greek accent um but yeah so i'm guessing those guys will be
04:55part of uh of said deal here you know there's a so i've been perusing the uh the honest card
05:00market
05:00here for the past like month or so figuring this would happen um he's there he's ahead of the market
05:05then well his market is very interesting he does not trade at the prices of like a traditional like
05:11a goat and i know that he's not he's not in goat territory but he's like pretty you know close
05:18right i mean yannis is a big big name um he's done stuff in the league that you know we've
05:23never seen
05:24before um but his his market is interesting but nevertheless omar there is a card that has all four
05:29of the yannis brothers um signed on as a leaf card that has all of them uh signed i kind
05:36of a kind of a
05:37cool one but nevertheless i do imagine they will yes they will probably have all the the honest
05:42family on the uh on the team uh when this uh this roster is eventually put together but they do
05:48have
05:48some spots to fill uh certainly here and we will see in the coming days uh how they end up
05:54filling
05:54the uh the rest of this thing out here andrew wiggins as you mentioned there on that uh that option
05:59norman powell uh we'll see if they're able to retain him i know people have been kind of 50 50
06:04on that
06:04one uh the only thing you need to know uh at this point i think omar is that uh the
06:09heat in the
06:10paint right now are going to have uh about 14 feet and 500 pounds of uh of pure muscle between
06:17uh bam
06:18and uh and yannis down there so we're uh we're going to be we're going to be all good there
06:23and
06:23i am i am very excited to uh to get uh the kids in front of him for some autographs
06:28yes i i am already uh
06:30i'm already like you should be you you you should be looking for cards that don't have a signing on
06:35them and the way you operate um didn't don't worry omar we'll get there didn't bam and yannis have
06:43some like knockout drag out battles throughout the years uh especially yeah i really remember they had
06:51that thrilling series with the bucks uh yannis if i'm not mistaken got hurt in that series was it
06:56yannis that got hurt yeah when the jimmy butler series where that they were the one seed
07:01and uh the heat with the eight seed that was part of the heat's run to the finals yeah that
07:05was the
07:06jimmy butler's final big run yeah we made it denver they also beat him in the bubble remember
07:10the bucks were the number one seed in the second round we beat them i want to say was it
07:15four games
07:15to two or four games to one even yannis does not have a very good record in the first round
07:19of the
07:19playoffs i think we're overlooking that a little bit not to rain on anybody's parade no no we're not
07:24raining on any parade this way hey we're not worried about the forefront it's looking gloomy
07:28out there but we by the way we are two for two now with joe on vacation joe's on a
07:33summer vacation
07:35and this always happens when joe goes away we knew that something was coming i told him on friday
07:41i said i'm really i'm actually very pleased that you're leaving um not that i dislike him or
07:46anything but this always happens it's more than he leaves it's more for two it's it's definitely
