Episode Details

The Miami Heat have Giannis Antetokounmpo and championship expectations. So who faces the most pressure if this experiment doesn’t work?

Wes Goldberg and David Ramil put Erik Spoelstra, Davion Mitchell and Bam Adebayo on the Heat’s version of the hot seat. Spoelstra is one of the NBA’s most accomplished coaches and seemingly untouchable in Miami — but does going all-in on Giannis change the standard he’ll be held to?

Then, why could Mitchell become the obvious scapegoat if Miami falls short? Wes and David look at previous contenders that upgraded a starter after disappointing playoff runs and whether Mitchell could suffer the same fate. Finally, they examine Bam’s pressure entering the Giannis era and what the next couple of seasons could mean for his Heat legacy.
