0:00.0	The narrative is that Miami made this amazing move of turning
0:05.8	Nicola Yokech into a score and not a passer. Is that really why the Miami Heat won game number two of the NBA finals maybe not
0:15.8	Howard back locked on NBA post season and
0:20.9	off season expert is with us.
0:23.6	It's locked on NBA, and it's now.
0:29.3	Eric Spolster didn't like the question much.
0:31.1	It was a darn good one from Ramona Shelburn in the press
0:33.4	conference Howard the narrative is well Miami solved this they turned yolkage into a score
0:40.5	last time I checked he went 16 of 28. I have some other numbers for you. Are you buying this as the narrative of why Miami won game number two?

I thought it was a little too dismissive, a little obnoxious in the moment, frankly, and I love Spo, but you know, come on, it was a fair question and it wasn't people need to understand

1:56.1	The point of asking the question is to test the premise and see if the person you're talking
2:00.1	to, coach, player, or otherwise, agrees and if they don't, to hear why to a cue to watchers, listeners, fans, it's not about trying to be right or wrong.
