Summary
What timing. Eric Rubenstein, a long-time sponsor of Five on the Floor, picked up some floor seats next to the Miami Heat bench for what seemed a run-of-the-mill game against the tanking Washington Wizards. And he was sitting right next to Bam Adebayo as the Miami Heat captain made history. Eric joins Ethan Skolnick to share his experience from the historic night. Everything said and heard.
