In hour four, an u[date from Day 1 of The Masters including one of the worst scores we've ever seen from a pro golfer. Does Spo deserve blame for another late game loss by the Heat? Mark Cuban wearing an Anthony Davis shirt last night makes Solana feel a certain way.
How much of the Heat's struggles falls on the head coach Erik Spoelstra? Crowder thinks it's ridiculous anyone would pin any blame on Spo but Solana thinks at a certain point the head coach deserves some of the blame.
If Dolphins have no leaders, Mike McDaniel may not make it through the season, Liam Eichenberg must have had no other offers & Coach Spo is playing the guessing game.

In hour three, Kendrick Lamar announces one of his Super Bowl halftime show guests. Can Jimmy's lack of production on the court actually be tracked to prove anything? Coach Spo maintains “normalcy” surrounding Butler drama even though there is nothing normal about the situation. Plus, Clay Ferraro joins the show to discuss the Butler situation and explains why he believes the Heat are better off sending Butler home before hurting their future.
In hour two, is the Heat front office doing themselves a disservice by forcing Jimmy Butler to play while being disgruntled? John Crotty joins the show and details why the Bam & Kel'el Ware pairing can be a great lineup moving forward for Coach Spo and his thoughts on the challenge the team is facing to play through the Jimmy Butler situation.
In Hour Three, Is there concern over the Panthers struggles as of late? Crowder may have given Sergei Bobrovsky Pink eye leading to poor performances. Jimmy Butler and his return from suspension is a huge national story with a lot of eyeballs on it. Tom Brady is planning on sticking with calling NFL games on FOX. Interstellar is now on Netflix, and Hoch is starting to think it's a pretty damn good movie. Do people who understand what's going on in the movie Interstellar think they are better than everyone else? Tyler Herro might try to make a statement tonight that he is THE guy now in Miami with Butler's return. Coach Spo should have two different game plans depending on the effort the Heat get from Jimmy Butler.
It's Football Friday and Tobin & Leroy get you ready for a sports-filled weekend. The Panthers lost the game to the New Jersey Devils 6-2 but yet again won the fights. The Miami Heat are back on the hardwood after that heartbreaking loss tot he Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night. Leroy was over the loss but Tobin played a comment that Coach Spo made that re-opened old wounds. The Dolphins are getting ready to face the Raiders at home on Sunday.
Coach Spo' made a rare rookie mistake!

Plus, we play our Heat Media Day coverage and find out which Heat players (& Coach Spo) would consider eating Hibachi for lunch.

After losing in 7 games to the Pistons in the 2005 East Finals, Heat President Pat Riley knew he had to make moves fast. With an aging Shaq and a ready-to-win-now Dwyane Wade, Riley knew Miami's window was shrinking.That summer, Riley completely re-hauled the roster, bringing in veterans Antoine Walker, Jason Williams, James Posey and Gary Payton. But when the team - led by Head Coach Stan Van Gundy - stumbled out of the gate, Riley took matters into his own hands, firing Van Gundy and re-taking the head coaching reigns. The rest was history.Antoine Walker joins the show to talk about his introduction to Heat Culture and their road to a championship. 00:00 Beginning01:53 Club Shiznit / 2005 Celtics 02:30 Pat Riley Replacing Stan Van Gundy08:58 Shaq and Wade's Relationship 12:15 Introduction to Heat Culture / Weight Tests19:25 Gary Payton 24:03 Coach Spo's Influence on Dwyane Wade 28:21 2006 Bulls 33:06 Refereeing in 2006 Finals 35:06 Dwyane Wade vs Paul Pierce35:57 Championship Celebration + Alcohol Poisoning 41:05 Lore of UCLA Summer Pickup Runs 47:05 Why Toine is Upset with Chicago Basketball 49:00 Michael Jordan Summer Time Chi Runs Learn more about your ad choices.

If you're looking for a hot take - look no further. Hoch makes the claim that Coach Spo kept Hassan Whiteside from flourishing in Miami and his true ceiling was wemby-like.
In a shocking turn of events, the Miami Heat are lacking so many bodies that a famous royal might be running point for Coach Spo and his squad tonight.
For months we assumed there'd be a big decision looming for Coach Spo between Herro or Duncan in the Heat's starting 5 come playoff time. But as we approach the end of the season, and Herro continues to be out, it doesn't feel like a competition anymore considering Duncan's impact over the last month.
In hour three, more bad news for the Miami Dolphins after Wilkins, Andrew Van Ginkel, Brandon Jones and Robert Hunt all appear to be signing deals elsewhere. Plus, we find time to discuss the brutal Heat loss last night to the Washington Wizards and debate whether Coach Spo made a mistake not using a timeout on the final possession that resulted in two missed threes.
During 15 Minutes of Heat, we discuss the brutal Heat loss to the Washington Wizards last night making it 3 straight losses at a crucial moment of the season. Plus, Hoch and Crowder both agree Coach Spo should've called a timeout before the final possession which resulted in two missed threes.
The case for Duncan Robinson to be a permanent starter in the Heat's lineup continues to grow as the numbers point to Miami being a better team when he starts. But will Coach Spo take Tyler out of the starting unit? Crowder, Appel and Solana all feel like Herro will get the chance to prove himself.
We find out Terry Rozier will be available to make his Miami Heat debut tonight vs Memphis! Debating whether or not Coach Spo will start him.

Then, Heisman Trophy winning QB, Gino Torretta, joins us to celebrate National Spaghetti Day but it results in him getting frustrated with Hoch's idea of authentic Italian cuisine.
