Miami Heat: Tyler Herro entering Season 3 Aug 19, 2021

Show notes

After recent episodes focusing on the newcomers to the Miami Heat roster, the hosts (Ethan, Greg, Alex) turn their attention to one of the more important holdovers, Tyler Herro.

Perhaps a victim of expectations and circumstances in his second season, Herro has been working out differently entering his third.

How will his role change with Kyle Lowry on board? Can he lead the bench unit without Goran Dragic around? And can he earn a core spot in the Heat future, rather than being seen as a "chip" for another major acquisition?

Miami Heat: Breaking Down Kyle Lowry Aug 11, 2021

Show notes

With no Ethan Skolnick in the mix tonight, Greg 'Leif' Sylvander and Alex Toledo (@GregSylvander & @tropicalblanket, respectively), hopped on to dig deeper into star acquisition Kyle Lowry's game.

We talked about the way he runs an offense, including the pick-and-roll element, his free throw volume, all the ways he helps his teams on offense, his strong defense and whether or not he's slipped in that regard, as well as our expectations for him for next season.

Miami Heat: Tampering? What now for Kyle Lowry? Aug 08, 2021

Show notes

The Miami Heat didn't have much time to celebrate the acquisition of Kyle Lowry, the gold medal for Bam Adebayo, and the contract extension for Jimmy Butler.\

Not after the ESPN report of a tampering investigation centered on the Heat and the Chicago Bulls.

Ethan Skolnick and Greg Sylvander assess the risk, and trash the rule.
