Hello and welcome to another edition of the Knicks Film School Pre-game show.

My name is Andrew Claudio, aka GMAC, and it's time to preview the next upcoming matchup down in South Beach against the Miami Heat.

So a couple of programming notes here at the top.

First of all, as you probably already noticed, this is coming out a little earlier than it usually is.

We normally do casual Friday, whatever the

regular pod is first, and then I release the pregame pod. Decide to switch it up this week.

The pregame pot, the pregame pot is done. First of all, that's really the reason why this is first.

And then casual Friday would be a long Friday morning.

So stay tuned for that.

The other one is that about half an hour before I jumped on with Giancarlo Navas of the Miami Heat beat, once again, he came on last time the Knicks played the Miami Heat back of the garden.

About half an hour before we started recording, Jimmy Butler was announced as questionable,

and it's a report that I didn't see before I jumped on with Jean-Carlos.

So we didn't even bring up the fact that Jimmy Butler might not play in this game.

Although throughout the conversation, Jimmy Butler is mentioned.

And I also, last but not least, want to give a bit of a

trigger warning, not to anything like serious or anything, but just to the fact that he went full

Miami heat fan at one point. And I hope, I hope. And please be honest with me if I didn't do a good

enough job in defending the Knicks and how good they've been and how real

this is and how awesome Jalen Brunson actually is.

Please tell me if I didn't do a good enough job.

I hope I did.

But hopefully you'll be able to enjoy the fact that the state of the Miami heat is ice cold,
