| 0:06.9 | You're listening to Heat Check from Trista Crick, Odyssey's official NBA podcast, find that wherever you get your podcasts, and live all throughout free agency, Summer League, and beyond. |
| 0:21.4 | You can't get past July 4th without huge moves, huge signings going on. |
| 0:27.2 | I need them. |
