  • Well, I would say for Jimmy Butler, Toby, the consistent version of what we saw in those two games they want in the NBA Finals.

  • It's not enough for Jimmy Butler to be good.

  • It's not enough for him to be an All Star.

  • Jimmy Butler has greatness written all over him.

  • He just needs to deliver it on a night in, night out basis.

  • In terms of his aggression.

  • We know he's going to defend.

  • We know he's a rough rider.

  • We know he's not scared of anybody, but he needs to be a complete attack mode to ascend to a level where we're starting where we're talking about him or consistently in the fashion.

  • We talked about him during the MBA Finals when he guided the Heat to two victories.

  • He was absolutely stellar.

  • I think they need to see more of that from him.

  • I actually think Butler is kind of maxed out what he could do, which is at a very high level.

  • He's a high level all star.

  • I think he needs a crime partner who's also great, not just good drag it because they have a lot of good players.

  • Bam is very good you know, one of the among the best Biggs.

  • But I'm talking about a dude who can go get you a bucket at an All Star level to go with Jimmy Butler.

  • I think that guy is Tyler hero.

  • I think the Heat have toe hope that Tyler hero, who was a 20 year old rookie last year, continues ascending into a star like a legit All Star player, which I think he's capable of.

  • And if they get a guy like that, if that guy could become an All Star, look out for the Heat.

  • I agree with you both, but you know, I got a soft spot for the bigs and I think it's bam out of the by you.

  • I think with Bam keep getting better as he keeps getting better every single year.

  • It's time for him to up his game.

  • Even Mawr, and I'm talking about his points per game.

  • We know that he could defend at at an elite level.

  • We know that he could rebound and block shots.

  • No, he runs the floor, he does all those things well, but he's gonna have the up his points per game from 17 points toe about 23 points, and he's capable of doing that.

  • I strongly believe that Bam is a top five big in this league.

  • And if the Heat are going to take that jump, he has to be that big time players.

  • Toby, that dynamic duo, the pack up with Jimmy Butler.

  • All right, up next, guys, we got Miami's opponent.

  • You just saw Zion and the Pelicans.

  • They'll be in action.

  • Max, What should be at the top of their wish list?

  • Oh, this is a slam dunk, so to speak.

  • Zions Health Period.

  • Zion Williams stays healthy.

  • I will have to stay healthy.

  • I love the way people are sleeping on Zion just because we've never seen anything like him before.

  • He doesn't look like what came before, so people don't understand.

  • He has M v P caliber talent.

  • He could be the best player in basketball one day.

  • He just needs to stay healthy.

  • He has wiggled to his game for a wide body.

  • He could jump out to Jim.

  • He can shoot better than you would think.

  • For a guy who looks like him at this stage in his career, he can even hey could do so many things just because What's this?

  • Is this Charles Barkley or Blake Griffin?

  • Plus some extra stuff?

  • Well, that guy doesn't sound like the best player in the league that guys usually an All Star but not an M v.

  • P.

  • Uh, this dude just has to stay healthy.

  • I'm not going to try to add to that.

  • We all know it's about the health of Zion Williamson because he's box office, and that's really what it comes down to it.

  • In terms of the New Orleans pelicans, he's the face of their franchise.

  • We understand it.

  • Healthy.

  • Zion Williamson means a significant upgrade for the New Orleans pelicans.

  • Is that simple?

  • Well, I have I don't disagree with you guys, but I'm focusing more so on Lonzo ball.

  • We know what we what, what you're going to get out of Zion.

  • We know that he's box office.

  • You know what?

  • You're going to get out of your first time All Star and you're most improved player.

  • Winner from out of Brandon Ingram.

  • Lonzo ball, the number two pick.

  • He has to step up his game up.

  • They need more out of him.

  • He has to be consistent.

  • And I'm not talking about 10, 10, 7 and seven.

  • I'm talking about on the lines of 16, 8 and five.

  • He has to elevate his game and show us what type of player he's gonna be.

  • Is he gonna be all star type player, or is he going to be just so simple?

  • Road player?

  • That's gonna be the difference maker in the New Orleans Pelicans, and I'm focusing on Lonzo Ball.

  • All right, let's move to the second game, starting with Steph and the Warriors.

  • Stephen A.

  • The dubs What should be at the top of their wish list this year.

  • To me, to me at the top of their Whistler's, other than the health of Clay Thompson obviously should be the ascension of Draymond Green.

  • I love my brother, Draymond Green.

  • He's a basketball savant.

  • Brilliant defensively knows the game backwards and forwards, but numbers wise.

  • Draymond Green.

  • He hasn't averaged in double digits the last two seasons, seven plus points this season.

  • Before eight points last year.

  • He's shooting 28% from three point range two years ago, 27% last year, or 28% causes 27.9.

  • I need better from Draymond green offensively because ultimately you know what is brilliant as he is as a basketball player.

  • His knowledge is I Q.

  • Etcetera, etcetera, ultimately, to get guys toe.

  • Listen to you, even Mawr.

  • You got to produce more effectively.

  • And offensively, I need more from him moving forward that I need.

  • I need to see more from him offensively.

  • That's it.

  • Under the tree.

  • The Warriors.

  • They need shooting, shooting, shooting, shooting Isn't that crazy?

  • Golden State Warriors need shooting, but there's no clay there anymore.

  • Obviously, K D is not there anymore.

  • And what did they What did they have?

  • Who they have playing big minutes.

  • Guys like Wiggins Wiseman, like Kelly.

  • Uber like all these guys are athletic and can play to one degree or another.

  • You know what none of them do even average for their position?

  • Shoot.

  • They don't have a single average shooter for his position on the in the starting rotation or really in on the bench in the rotation.

  • Paschal.

  • Lots of good players, zero shooting, and there are different ways to score.

  • But shooting short helps, and it makes it harder to score in those other ways.

  • When you can't do it they need shooting, shooting, shooting.

  • Well, I think the Golden State Warriors need Andrew Wiggins toe elevate his game.

  • They're not asking him to be the number one option.

  • They're not asking him to be the number one pick.

  • They're just asking him to be a Robin to Steph Curry while Clay Thompson is out, and I know he's capable of doing it.

  • Uh uh.

  • He's averaged 20 points throughout his career, and that's all they need from him is 20 to 22 points, and I understand you saying, shooting Max.

  • But it's other ways.

  • Toe get buckets.

  • Then just knocking down three point shots Andrew Wiggins could post up.

  • He's a hell of a slasher.

  • He can knock down shots.

  • When is when is when?

  • When he's when he gets going.

  • But he has to be consistent.

Well, I would say for Jimmy Butler, Toby, the consistent version of what we saw in those two games they want in the NBA Finals.
