Looks like it's going to be another scorcher of a day. The sun is still high in the sky. That means there'll be work to be done. Working a few fucking creamy pints into you.

You know?

Good morning, sweet world, and welcome to the No Dunks podcast on the Athletic Network.

It's Monday, June 5th, 2003.

I'm Jay E. Skeets here in the Classic Factory, and alongside me, the bearded one, Matasha Hot Boy, Trey Kirby.

Hey, oh!

And last but not least, Over yonder, super producer, making the magic happen, JD. Hello. There he is, and here we are in our green shirts. Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone. Wow, with that cold open, too? Scullinac Guinness there? It's Canadian Thanksgiving. Canadian St. Patrick's Day. Yeah, everybody knows that. June 5th. No Tassie, of course, here in the factory. He's headed back from Denver. Or wait, maybe he's already back. This guy took the red eye, I think, last night. Did he... Do we know that he flew back, or did he take the mountain bike? He started on the top of the mountain and just cruised on down with his momentum. Perhaps. It's possible. It's possible. Anyway, Tass will be back here tomorrow with me. TK. Heads out to Miami later today to cover games three and four. Do you know how many times I'm going to say Benvenito Amiamiami? It's going to be ridiculous. A lot. Probably every time I meet somebody new, at least for the first two days. Keep track for us. Yeah, I will. Shout out to the stream team, joining us live right now on YouTube. Go get your No Dunks merch over at no dunks.com. And once we're done with this classic, and you've done listening to it, check out the brand new episode of Is This Good? Maddie O and J.D.

Talking to GQ's Vince Mancini about fighting Mark Zuckerberg, collecting baby's teeth, hoarding your own blood, and a whole lot more.

That new Is This Good podcast has its own YouTube feed and, of course, podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, wherever you download and listen to Pods.

So check it out, Is This Good?

All right.

We got a bunch of NBA news later in this show.

Frank Vogel is going to be the son's head coach.

But the Miami Heat have tied the NBA finals at one game apiece with a thrilling 11-108 victory in game two

against the Nuggets last night. Denver led for most of the game.

They were in control after three quarters, and then the heat win that fourth quarter,

36 to 25, complete the comeback, tie the series. Game three goes Wednesday night. You'll be there

in attendance, but... Benvenito, on me out. There it is. One ding! What did you think of this heat victory? What was your big takeaway from this one? Well, somebody called the Southern lawyer, because we got all selves a series, Skeets. You talk about a game of runs. This was kind of the ultimate game of runs. Yep. Heat came out of the gates blazing hot, hitting a whole bunch of threes. Max Struce figured out how to flip his wrist once again. O for 10 from the field, 0 for 9 from 3 in game 1. Not the case in game 2. He caught fire, made four threes on the night, 14 points, got off to a huge lead.

Then the Nuggets hit back right away into the second quarter.

The compost crew really flipped the game on their heads.

I thought they were up 50 to 35, I think, at one point.

And it kind of felt like the tide had turned completely in Denver's favor.
