00:00who's one twenty three one twenty one in overtime.
00:05Jalen Duren with a put back or with a alley oop slam.
00:10Boom. Right down the pipe.
00:13And Eric Spolster calls time out, sends Malik Beasley to the free throw line.
00:19He hits it. They get the ball back.
00:21Game was over. Over.
00:24He dropped a four and six pistons, five and seven in
00:30really just a tremendous game from Tyler Hero that got wasted.
00:34Unfortunately, he was incredible.
00:37Once you realize Cade.
00:40It's taking the ball out.
00:42Yeah. Why don't you just put everybody back?
00:48I mean, it's still one point eight, so it could have been, you know,
00:50well, it's like Tobin said, OK, but you got you got five on four.
00:55So you you're not going to be on him, but you're going to be in the area
00:59watching that in the past.
01:00So all the passes become difficult.
01:03You see what I'm saying?
01:05To say, oh, he's just going to kick it back.
01:09It was rough.
01:10You want to hear a spell on not having wear in there?
01:14Did we already hear it or not? We didn't hear it yet.
01:16Oh, yeah, we can hear it. Here's Bo.
01:18Yeah, I was going to put some size on the ball,
01:22but then we made the change because Cunningham was taking the ball out.
01:25I asked that because did you think the play to the room was possible
01:27and you wanted sort of a backstop?
01:29No, we just wanted to disrupt it.
01:33You know, anything that was going into the field, but
01:36with Cunningham taking the ball out, I didn't feel comfortable with where,
01:40you know, with a pass back to him.
01:43I don't think that was really the issue.
01:46They just, you know, they caught us on that play.
01:51That's unfortunate.
01:53But the reality is that it should have just gone double OT.
01:57Yeah, well, it didn't.
01:58Damage is done, though, my friend.
02:00And the other thing is, is that.
02:04Like we.
02:08When he says I was afraid of the pass back.
02:12Like, you know what that shot's going to look like.
02:17You got one point eight seconds.
02:19It's going to be a heave.
02:20Right, exactly.
02:22These guys train.
02:23No, but I'm telling you, I'm telling you, Vlad, you're assuming that,
02:27OK, when he throws it in, that is going to be a good pass there.
02:33He got too cute.
02:34He got too cute, dude.
02:35You see what I'm saying?
02:35Like you're talking about making two passes
02:39in one point eight seconds and getting up a quality shot.
02:43I get they they take shots under, but that's what you want.
02:49Smith is a shot under stress.
02:51Whatever shot they may get, you gave up a bunny.
02:57So while he's saying I didn't want the ball to come back,
03:01you're telling me in one point eight seconds.
03:05He's going to pass it to a guy that's covering, that's getting guarded,
03:09throw it back to the guy.
03:11How about you tell Kaleo, OK, if he passes it in, you make sure you check him
03:15and give him, you know, and make a shot.
03:18I just think, look, the thing that has to happen, that Eric Spolster
03:21does have to realize, OK, it's just enough with the nonsense already.
03:26Your first round pick has to play.
03:28It's stupid that he's not playing more like.
03:31All right. We're taking baby steps and we've gotten there.
03:34OK, we're a weekend or we're two weeks in.
03:37And then finally, after two weeks of Thomas Bryant, you were like,
03:40you know what, it's Thomas Bryant.
03:41And so you started playing him a little bit off the bench.
03:44But he has to play more.
03:46That's the facts of it.
03:47We've been talking about this since the start of the season.
03:50And you're playing Bam on a bio 40 minutes against two mooses
03:54in Stewart and Duran, and he's going out there.
03:57You're going to wear his ass down by Christmas.
04:01He's got to play more. You got to trust him.
04:03What are we doing?
04:04It's what November basketball is for.
04:07Go out there. Let the kid play.
04:11Let him let him blow it.
04:12You'll blow it. You've been doing it for 20 years.
04:16Let the kid play. Let the kid play.
04:19I doing. I just think that.
04:24The worst look in all of that.
04:28Was Terry Rozier trying to guard.
04:31The guy making the shot. Right.
04:34And and and I'm just thinking to myself.
04:38I don't care what play is designed.
04:40I don't care what people you have in there.
04:43I don't care if the guy plays whack-a-mole
04:46and gives the guy two shots. Right.
04:50It doesn't matter if he's got size.
04:53Yeah, it's just like, why wouldn't you want to get him ready, Leroy?
04:56For a situation, you know, I've been.
04:59Talking about years.
05:01Get ready to a point.
05:02Then this is crazy.
05:05Maybe we get him to a point where we get to significant basketball.
05:08Should you guys actually get to a record that plays that?
05:11Maybe he'll be ready and you could throw Bam on a bio on Kate Cunningham
05:16and he could go back and guard the best guy. Right.
05:18And then you have Haywood Highsmith, who was a demon yesterday, by the way.
05:22God, he was good.
05:23What I can't understand is.
05:27Is that. What is rule number one in all of this?
05:34Protect the easy bucket.
05:37And so worst case scenario is what happened.
05:42And I'm thinking.
05:45Whoever you have out there, if they have time.
05:49To inbound it, throw it back to the guy, take it up
05:53and get a quality shot in 1.8 seconds.
05:58With defense on them.
06:01Good for them. Right.
06:02But that ain't going to happen.
06:05I don't care if it's me, you and Vlad.
06:09Guarding. The inbounder
06:14and somebody coming over to throw it back to the inbounder.
06:181.8 seconds, that shot is not going to be easy.
06:24But in your efforts to defend
06:27the most difficult shot, you gave up the easiest shot.
06:32Right. And then even if that happens, OK, it's tied.
06:36How do you melt down like that? How does that happen?
06:40How do you I think?
06:41I think I think personally, I think personally, this is just me.
06:47I think he said to himself when he got annoyed,
06:51I should have had more size in there.
06:53So how is the smallest guy on the floor?
06:57Guarding a big in that moment, right, that that's.
07:03So when you're upset at yourself,
07:06you ain't making a mistake and then you double it up by
07:10calling it like basically if he was playing poker, they would say he's on.
07:13Have you ever heard? Oh, no, he's definitely he's definitely on to Leroy.
07:16Have you ever heard of a basketball coach needing a get back coach?
07:20Yeah. Chris Quinn, big fella.
07:23Oh, that Chris, Chris was like, I can't do this.
07:26Oh, that Chris, Chris was like, I can't.
07:28He turned around and said, I can't help you.
07:30You know, Chris Quinn's maybe thinking himself.
07:32Maybe he'll get tired of this.
07:33I can finally sneak in there.
07:34Get that coaching gig.
07:35Oh, look at this.
07:37Watch over. Come on, man.
07:39You're really upset. That's why aren't you?
07:41I'm not. Look, he's a legend.
07:43Nobody's denying the man is a legend.
07:45I'm upset. I'm upset at the moment.
07:49But I don't have any less faith in.
07:51Yeah, I'm I'm just I'm frustrated.
07:53Like, you know, it's it's a frustrating thing.
07:56And this has been, you know, this has been a really,
08:01really tough few weeks of execution late for them because,
08:04you know, you think to the Kings game blew that the Suns game
08:09right down the wire Nuggets game.
08:12They showed fighting that Nuggets kind of kicked their ass.
08:15But these games have all been like coin flips for them.
08:19And yeah, it's frustrating to be in a spot that they're at right now.
08:22It's frustrating to be in a spot right there where they're at right now.
08:27And and especially, I think, just, you know, man,
08:30you've had some brilliant performances by a hero.
08:32He's been incredible.
08:33I also think.
08:36That when you see this team play the way they have against Minnesota
08:39and in the way in Detroit, you see, you kind of like
08:42having an experience, a little peek of how life would be
08:46without a certain number, 22. Yeah.
08:48Yeah. I'm so used to it.
08:50Like, it's not like it's not a new concept to me.
08:54I'm used to watching heat games without Jimmy Butler.
08:56But I will say the thing that like the thing that's been great about watching
09:00Tyler is the man has completely changed his shot diet
09:05and his confidence and and somewhat irrational confidence to take
09:10crazier shots like they've been wanting him to be this three point shooter.
09:14Like they want him to go to Steph range.
09:16They want him to take these contested shots.
09:19They want him to have this kind of lack of conscience.
09:21And he's finally doing it because the thing with Tyler was
09:24he was such a pristine shooter all the time, but he'd always give up
09:28a contested or a contested three or a dangerous three for a clean two.
09:34And it's like now playing right.
09:37Yeah, he was playing right.
09:38But he was playing conservative.
09:39And I think that they're like, you got more talent than to play conservative.
09:43And this and now you're just seeing a menace out there.
09:47I mean, I'm sure there's going to be a slump at some point,
09:50but it doesn't look like he looks like he looks like one of the best.
09:53Here's what it looks like.
09:54It looks like he has so much of a game to go to if parts of it is struggling.
10:00That's right, Leroy, because I would say even if his even if he does go struggling
10:04one day, I will say, and especially since last season's
10:07postseason against the Celtics, his playmaking ability
10:10and the way he can get others a good shot
10:13because he had ten assists as well yesterday.
10:15I thought he was playmaking too much in the end.
10:17I think about it like when you drop a 40 burger, but you also had ten dimes.
10:21Like, yeah, you control in the game.
10:23You're controlling that offense.
10:24You were in a rhythm.
10:26They had no answers for you.
10:27He was responsible for 60 plus points.
10:30Yeah, it was awesome.
10:31You've been seeing that.
10:32He was awesome.
10:33Dade South says this is why there's a wild heat coyote.
10:36Why should we expect anything different from this team?
10:39It's completely fair.
10:43You know what?
10:43You know what it is, Dade South.
10:44I never expected to be Spoh.
10:46Of all the things, I think, of all the things, if anyone's got us, Spoh's got us.
10:51You expected to be Terry stepping out of bounds.
10:54Yeah, dude.
10:55You expected to be.
10:56Yeah.
10:57I'm not used to this.
10:58Like, I'm used to the heat losing heartbreakers and I'm used to false hope heat.
11:02But I ain't used.
11:03I ain't used to the to the to the guru.
11:06I ain't used to him losing me a game.
11:08Guess what?
11:09You're not alone.
11:12I think that's what hurts even more.
11:14That's what hurts the most.
11:15It hurts when it's somebody who you least expect to be the reason.
11:19It's like the Dolphins, right?
11:20It's like, oh, no, not no, not you, Raheem.
11:24Oh, right.
11:26Who ain't get no carries.
11:29Yeah, I didn't even notice that.
11:30People were mentioning that.
11:31I was like, oh, yeah, but because I thought about the catches.
11:33But yeah, he got no carries.
11:34No carries.
