Miami Heat’s future in question after getting swept | Dan Le Batard Show with Stugoz | NBC Sports

And in general, you guys don’t
know, yourselves whatsoever. Like you’re saying this today
because it’s the day after the season ended on April 29th.
And sure, enough opening night next year, you will have
convinced yourself that the heater serious contenders and
they’re going to make a run and this is their year and culture
and The Godfather fixed it and Pat Riley, this and Pat Riley
that and it’ll probably be largely the same roster.
He’ll bring in one or two different pieces, but this is
how this is, as this is how we barely saying major changes in
the losing locker room, bam saying, we know major changes
are your the major change. I need to go bam, like why the
wage is. So, so we’re on here, major
changes pack up and go. If you’re, if you’re really
about this culture, do the best thing for the culture and leave.
Whoa, you’re not good enough. Well, shouldn’t you at least
wait for them to trade him? No, just leave or nothing.
Is better than bam at this point in time, honestly.
But I’m telling you remember, April 29th.
I want that to be just guys. This, we are calling signed
remember April 29th. Because next year come October
24th. We’re going to be talking about this Heat team and how I
like what they’re doing here, like what they did here in the
offseason, it’s what happens, every single year, every kind of
tingly, it’s not done Dan, it’s gonna continue.
I want to explore something with you guys though here.
Because wherever the mental frailties in this sport reside
such that they are okay? Jimmy has burnt through in
Minnesota and Philadelphia and here an assortment of Ben
Simmons has and Andrew Wiggins and Karl Anthony towns where
he’s more. What he’s a better player, but
more of a bleep hole as well, wherever the whoever the outfit
is he gets to Miami. And now we see what’s played out
over the last. I don’t know, six months and it
is revealed to all of us that if you give the ball to Tyler hero,
he’ll be an All-Star and he’ll get better and that’s what your
team will look like and revealed to all like, oh, that’s where
Bam’s limits are. None of those guys will carry
you to anything. We didn’t think, Jimmy would but
Jimmy burned through a mean, and I want you to explain sort of
what’s happening there with competition, with toughness and
crazy people about competition, where Jimmy’s burning through a
line of teammates to get to something higher and revealing
in his wake. Oh, I don’t think Karl.
Anthony towns is a tough. As he needs to be, or Wiggins is
a tough as he needs to be or Simmons is as tough as he needs
to be or bam is as tough as he needs to be.
But he was right. On.
That’s the thing in the moment. Everyone’s all what a jerk.
Get him out of here but at the end of it we look back and maybe
bam-bams got an opportunity to change that perception.
But all those other names, he looked back and said, oh, he was
100% on point. These guys weren’t Bambam,
doesn’t have the ability to change that perception.
Bam is now a formed player. This is the best band will be.
It’s not about being a better player, it’s about a level of
toughness and Leadership, that is expected.
And needed from him. That was the thing that was
surprising me. Last night.
As I sat down, I watch every second of that.
All four or supposed saying afterward we showed resilience
and character? No, they didn’t.
But I’m saying suppose saying afterward that they showed
resilience and character this season. Yeah I like I think you
meant specifically they lost ten in a row and they still managed
to make for sure. But last night there was no
resilience, none whatsoever, not from the opening tip.
Not I mean there were moments early in the first half.
It’s a big deficit, I get it. But listen, be a A couple of
Threes all of a sudden. It’s not a big deficit and the
way they were playing was 123 Cancun. Like I’ve never I’ve
never seen a Heat team playing as if it didn’t want to get on a
flight. I’ve never seen that before Dan it will go it will be
erased in history. No one will remember this but
there was a play where Max juice sideline out of bounds, inbounds
the ball steps right in. They’ve passed it right back to
him. There’s not a single Heat player within 30 miles of them.
He’s wide open for three, he misses the three so it won’t be
remembered but it’s just like, what are we doing here?
Why what point does execution on the defensive end effort?
Making the extra rotation making the extra effort.
All those things went out the window and they went out the
window, very early in that game is 32 8, I mean look we I think
we kind of knew that or at least I felt going into the game.
Yesterday we were going to learn a little bit about this Heat
team. What I mean by that is not that they’re not that we’re
going to learn. Oh can they win the game?
Okay. Send the series back to
Cleveland but we’re going to learn a little bit about this.
Version of the heat because if you get down early, they all
know they’re not winning the series maybe when the game
without winning the suit, they know that.
Okay, so we’re going to learn a little bit about this team where
if they get down early, which do they start thinking to
themselves? All right, isn’t even worth trying to put a
thousand percent effort to get back in this game.
Then to just get on a plane for one more game and get killed in
Cleveland. Like we’re going to learn a little bit about this
team and we did learn. N which was yeah we don’t really
think it’s worth the trip. Then that’s the part that’s
different, right? Yeah, because everyone that’s
also. What’s going to spark the change? Sure.
The change of the fan base has wanted, like, I’m and I don’t
know that. I want to sit here and do Silver
Lining today. Okay?
But losing that game, by one point yesterday, is not the way
to go into the offseason. Like the Heat fan has wanted
this change and now he got bam adebayo sitting there postgame
saying the guy with the silver

After getting swept in historic fashion by the Cavaliers, the Dan Le Batard Show explores what’s next for the Heat, an organization that is bound to face major questions and change this offseason. #nba #nbcsports #miamiheat
