All right, guys, questions ahead of the series nuggets and heat. My first one is this. Does Miami have

0:09.5

a chance at all in this series, Rico? No, but I think this could be

0:19.6

jeez, which is the 2000 finals. The one where Philly played the Lakers and Iverson walked into

0:26.4

LA stepped over Tyloo and they won a game and then they got swept right after. That's what I'm

0:34.0

looking at tonight. Miami tonight, they got a shot. I think tonight is the only shot that they

0:38.8

have because Denver's been just sitting around doing nothing. You know, yo could just puffing

0:45.2

heaters for about a week on the couch. David, do you give Miami any shot in this series?

0:52.5

Shot no shot. I'm going to say this. No, but they did win two or three role games in the last

1:02.4

series. Three of them, including game seven. So I mean, while we say no, they won the first game,

1:08.8

which I also believe they can do. I guess I can't be surprised if they win another one. Here's the

1:16.2

other thing. Spulstra has finals experience. He does. Denver's going to find out NBA finals is

1:25.2

1:40.0

butler's been there before. I killed himself trying to beat the Lakers. What's his point? Miami's got

1:45.4

the Miami's got the experience. Miami Denver is a great story, but the reason you know, you were just

1:52.5

trying to. Well, hold on. Then talk yourself all the way into it. I'm I'm. Yes. He and sick.

1:59.3

Yeah, the only experience that Denver has is KCP. Yeah, he's saying something. Wow. What's the

2:07.9

biggest matchup to watch for in the series? Is it Yokech? Is it butler? Yokech who guards Yokech,

2:15.6

can you can keep him under 30? I mean, I mean, the sons, he was going like 50 points of game. It

2:24.0

was just, but how do you do it? Like go inside, expose, huddle. What's the answer? Do you just say,

2:27.7

let him get his and don't let him be a facilitator? Don't let him involve everybody else. If he drops

2:32.3

40, we don't care. Or do you know, I think I'm honestly, you stopped Jamal Murray. Okay.
