00:00For the Miami Heat yesterday, they...
00:03Actually, it was this morning.
00:05Technically, yeah.
00:06I actually think they beat Midnight by a little bit.
00:08You know what I hate about this, okay?
00:12We get trades.
00:14We get all this stuff.
00:16But you can't really announce it until a certain date.
00:20Just go.
00:21Like, what are we doing?
00:22The draft is going to put on a Heat hat.
00:25He is.
00:26I can't wait for that tonight.
00:27They can't...
00:27We're still going to the draft party.
00:29We still got a draft party today.
00:30They can't...
00:31They can't announce Giannis until, what, the 6th?
00:35I think it's like the 6th, yeah.
00:37Right.
00:37Like, what are we doing?
00:38Well, because they want to leave room for expanding the trade if they have to.
00:44But the deal is agreed to, in principle, for just these two parties should it happen.
00:47The same thing happened with Durant last year, where Durant was agreed to between the Suns
00:52and Rockets, but then it didn't get done until the official league year because they wanted...
00:56A lot of people wanted to get in on it to facilitate it and things like that.
00:59So, that's why.
01:00Okay.
01:01All right.
01:01I mean, I got it.
01:02Don't expect a Giannis introductory press conference until July.
01:06We basically gave up starting five.
01:09Yeah.
01:10You know, so...
01:11Look, the Heat basically gave up...
01:14Somebody put this to me last night on my YouTube chat.
01:16They said it was basically seven first-round picks, which they did.
01:19You know, the Heat made a big deal last year about, like, hey, we have our last six
01:23first-round picks on the roster.
01:25Well, four of them just went out the door.
01:26Well, and the problem is, is that...
01:31How can you say something like that, but then not treat them that way?
01:35Right?
01:36Like, they always talked about the youth and whatever, but as soon as the guy made a mistake,
01:40he was sitting on the bench for...
01:41Not all of them.
01:42I mean, like, Tyler Hero got everything that he needed to do.
01:46Tyler Hero was probably one of the ones that they, like, yeah, this is our guy.
01:53Jaime got, you know, got to...
01:55Last year's offense was tailored for Jaime Hawkins, like, to bounce back his season.
02:00And look, the Heat were probably in a position with Jaime where, you know, he was up on his
02:05contract.
02:06He was getting ready to be extension eligible.
02:08Probably did him a favor.
02:09But...
02:10Probably.
02:10Yeah.
02:11Probably.
02:11I just think, like, it's cool to see, like, the development of the youth, to see them
02:23do it that way.
02:25I think what they did here, right, somebody had to twist their arm to get to, but they
02:32could have very easily done it the last couple years.
02:35But here's the difference.
02:38This year, the desirable pieces were a little bit different than last year.
02:45So last year, you would have said, Jovich, oh, we don't want to give up Jovich.
02:49Jovich is going to be a star.
02:51And this year was Kalel.
02:53Last year, Jaime would have been a throw-in.
02:57Yeah.
02:57Right?
02:58And now he's, like, one of the pieces.
03:00Yep.
03:00Right.
03:02Yaka Chonis wasn't, I mean, he wasn't even here, so it didn't matter, but he came on
03:06pretty good.
03:07He had nice moments.
03:09Right.
03:09He had nice moments last year.
03:11For, like, for a 19-year-old, that's what you get.
03:14Nice moments.
03:15Yeah.
03:15So, yeah.
03:17So...
03:17Well, the reports today from Sam Amick was that was the last thing that got it over.
03:21The Heat reportedly, according to The Athletic, wanted to try and make this deal, giving up
03:27Davion and keeping Yaka Chonis, but the Bucs didn't want Davion because he's on the last
03:32year of his deal, and they wanted, you know, a little bit more youth.
03:36He's, you know, he's still young, Davion Mitchell, but that was...
03:39But look, hey, listen, Davion, I'll say this.
03:42They tried to trade Goran Dragic the final season, dude.
03:45They tried to trade him to Dallas, and you know what?
03:46It ended up working for him, so don't worry about that.
03:48Don't you sweat it.
03:50Don't you sweat it.
03:51So, now there's a lot more pressure on Jovic, I think.
03:56If he's here, we'll see.
03:58You think they'll still try to move him?
03:59I don't know how much value could possibly be in a guy who just had that year and is
04:04owed $60-plus million guaranteed, but the Heat are also hard-capped now, so I'm going
04:10to imagine they're going to try and trade as much as they can.
04:12That's very confusing.
04:14There's that brain I was telling you about.
04:15I can see it.
04:16The problem is that I don't know enough about the cap, like, hard cap versus, like, yeah,
04:27it's so confusing, especially basketball is just so confusing when it comes to that stuff.
04:33Yeah, it's also boring, but I would say the big thing is they're going to have to figure
04:39out, one, is Wiggins coming back?
04:42I think the early read is they would love to have him back.
04:45Do they shave down his salary for, like, a multi-year deal?
04:50Yeah, and then it sounds like the early read is Brian Windhorst is saying that they likely
04:56will lose Norman Powell.
04:57We'll see.
04:58Could they do a sign-in trade with Norm, though, and then bring something in?
05:02So, like, let's say Norm finds a location because there's not a lot of teams in the
05:05cap space.
05:06He obviously wants a multiple-year deal.
05:08Could they do something like that to bolster his?
05:11Get another player.
05:12Yeah.
05:12So, I think there's some mechanism there.
05:14They have a $15 million exception, so they can bring a player.
05:18You're in a used car lot.
05:20Huh?
05:20For $15 million, you're in a used car lot.
05:22You're in a used car lot, but I think you could maybe be the most productive used car,
05:26you know, who wants to be in great weather, tax, you know, no state tax, and play with
05:31Giannis.
05:32That's the appeal.
05:34Jay, what's going on, dude?
05:37Hey, man.
05:37How y'all doing today, man?
05:38Good.
05:39How are you doing?
05:40I'm great, man.
05:41Exciting day, exciting day.
05:43Y'all done.
05:44But I also want to say, Midas 1 to you, Tobin.
05:47And all, all of Pete's with him.
05:50Everybody that's been killing Riley for not making moves.
05:53I believe that at some point, you got to make a stand.
05:57You can't, I get everybody saying, oh, those guys not good enough, but you can't give up
06:01everything to get certain guys.
06:03Right.
06:03But it kind of sounds like Pat Riley agreed with me.
06:05So, in a way, what you really mean is point for me, I think is what you mean.
06:09Yeah, yeah.
06:09No, no.
06:10My point is that I think they want to pellet.
06:12They want to everything.
06:13So, at some point, you got to keep some of the guys.
06:15You can't give up everything.
06:16But I'm glad they did it.
06:20I'm glad they made it happen.
06:22I'm glad we're on the same page, dude.
06:23Yeah, yeah.
06:25I think now Spoh is going to have to get in his bag.
06:29Oh, yeah.
06:30Let me tell you something.
06:32Spoh's thrilled.
06:33He's like, this is a team I love.
06:36This is going to be a team he's going to wrap his arms around.
06:38Exactly.
06:38Exactly.
06:39And I think that what he's going to have to do is, I get it, Giannis, he's going to have
06:43to go back.
06:44If you watch the offense from 2013 when he had LeBron, he's going to have to do something
06:50like that.
06:50Giannis don't need to be on the perimeter.
06:52Work on him getting on the block.
06:54Work on him because then you can kind of get double teams and get him to pass out the three
06:58-point
06:58shooters.
06:59I get everybody want to do that three-point jump, but in the playoffs, we got to work
07:04on the half-four offense.
07:05The half-four offense, the last couple of years, has been terrible.
07:07They've been pathetic.
07:09And I'm like, you got to work to try to get guys open.
07:11And also, what I wanted to say is that I'm just glad it's happening, man.
07:17It's just, we're as Heat fans of sport.
07:20And one of the things why I get so mad at Heat fans when they complain is the fact that
07:24we had Zoe at one point doing that.
07:27Then we had Wade and Shaq.
07:29Then we had LeBron and Bosh.
07:30It's like, we've had four iterations.
07:32Jimmy Butler, we had four iterations of teams that were good.
07:36And a lot of the Knicks just won the championship after 53 years.
07:40Like, we've been sported as a Heat fan base.
07:42And I think that sometimes we get in the thing where it's like, they're not working out, but
07:45you're not, you have to go through some laws.
07:47And like, we've been sported for the last 20 years where we haven't went through many
07:51laws.
07:52So I think we got to appreciate what we have as a fan base and say that at least they
07:56try,
07:57at least they make things happen.
07:58So, you know, that's all I want to say, man.
08:00Appreciate you, Jay.
08:01And I'm glad you agree with me.
08:04Yeah, that's all.
08:06We've got to go to break.
08:10But in the end, by the way, what?
08:13You do that thing.
08:14What?
08:15Oh, I got to stop blinking.
08:18Yes.
08:19Stop blinking.
08:20Dude.
08:24What?
08:24You know what you do.
08:26You're a bear.
08:27I do.
08:27You're a bear.
08:28What did I do?
08:28You're a bear.
08:29Just a couple of guys on the phone agree with each other.
08:32You made him say that.
08:34I didn't make anybody say anything.
08:36Really?
08:36All I'm saying is Pat Riley ultimately agreed with me.
08:39Do what it takes to get the deal done.
08:40He did it.
08:41That's literally all I've been asking for.
08:44Literally all I've been asking for.
08:45You think he's better at that than you?
08:49Well, he's got, he's got a resume, but I wanted to remember.
08:51Sometimes you got to remember, uh, you got to tell a fighter, Hey, you still got it.
08:54Last thing to go is power, Pat.
08:56Last thing to go.
08:57You just got to bite down on that mouthpiece and swing and send a Lithuanian point guard
09:01to Milwaukee.
09:04If that's what it takes.
09:05No more Lithuanian lizard.
09:07What?
09:09Lithuanian lizard.
09:10Get the hell out of here.
09:11Wow.
09:13Your soul falls.
09:15What is wrong?
09:16I mean, like.
09:18Joke it, Jonas.
09:20Wow.
09:21I just could imagine when I'm gone, he goes, never wanted.
09:25Dente, please, please, please.
09:27Why?
09:27What?
09:28It's too much.
09:29Just clip this.
09:30Clip what?
09:30For future reference ever.
09:32What?
09:33What are you doing?
09:35No, no, no.
09:37Milwaukee Bucks.
09:37Like, I don't understand.
09:38What are you doing?
09:39Jennifer, I'm familiar with this man's work.
09:41Here's how it goes.
09:44A month, two months, three months.
09:47We're going to say, oh, remember when you said this, this, and this?
09:51And he's going to say, Rick, get the tape.
09:55And then we're going to have to pull it out.
09:56You guys are Yaka Chona's guys.
09:57I get you.
09:57Now, all of a sudden, the two of you.
09:59No, that's not.
10:00But you were Yaka Chona's guy, and now you're like, it's not on the heat anymore.
10:04See ya.
10:05See ya.
10:06I wish you no success.
10:10You think Kalel's going to, of all the guys, you think Tyler's going to have a bounce back
10:13and Kalel?
10:15If he's healthy, Tyler's going to have a good year.
10:16Yeah.
10:17Especially on that team, because.
10:20It's probably going to be a battle for the ball between him and Kuzma.
10:24If you're back.
10:27Kuzma.
10:32Did you ever get those stats?
10:34Yeah, did you?
10:35How about them Kuzma stats, dude?
10:37He's not that good.
10:39He's okay.
10:39Okay.
10:40Okay.
