00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:00,480
Speaker 1: I was.

2
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 2: I was able to watch and pay attention.

3
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

4
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 2: I got a chance to see guys like yourself, you know,

5
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: Kurt Thomas, Uh, you know Keith asking k Kevin Will,

6
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 2: This goes on and on. Just talk about, you know,

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 2: the beginning in the building of the culture. You know

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 2: what I'm saying that I carried with so much pride,

9
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.

10
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 4: But you're talking Miami heat culture out the Miami he.

11
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 2: But just talk about the beginning when you first talking

12
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: about establishing that ship.

13
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: We first it started with conditioning. You had to be

14
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: in the best shape of your life. You thought you

15
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: were in shape, you still had you had to be

16
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: in the best shape of your life. Because past approach

17
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 1: was we're gonna outlasted our opponents in the fourth quarter.

18
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: We're gonna be in better shape than there. We're gonna

19
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: run them into the ground. Defensively, we're gonna be up

20
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: and into them. I help, defense is gonna be impeccable.

21
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: You know, somebody get beat there. You got to run

22
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,199
Speaker 1: through me, you know, to get the where you're going.

23
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: You know, And I loved it because it help guy's accountable.

24
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: It really did it helped guys accountable, you know, so

25
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: you got in the game, you knew what the hell

26
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: your job was. And we were all connected to a string.

27
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: So if I went this way, I was pulling Mike

28
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 1: with me, like okay, come on over here, you know

29
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And we never left anybody on the

30
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: island by themselves. Even on the posts. We butt front,

31
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: butt front, you know, made it hard for the offensive

32
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: man to catch the ball, and then when he caught it,

33
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: it was a guy down there digging he was. We

34
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: gonna make it very hard for you to score it,

35
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: you know, which is why, you know, the scoring totals

36
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: were much longer, you know, because we were defending our

37
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: asses off. You know, we took pride in holding teams

38
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: to shooting thirty nine percent thirty eight thirty nine percent.

39
00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: We took pride in that, you know, that's what we're

40
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: going to do. That we're gonna hold you to thirty

41
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: because we contesting every shot, were blocking, closing out, getting

42
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: every rebound, all of that stuff. Yeah, we were trapping

43
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: the box. You go baselines. As a man that standing

44
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: on the baseline, you gotta run me over to get

45
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,399
Speaker 1: where you gotta go. You know, so those principles started

46
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: heat culture are three and a half hour practices. Yeah,

47
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: you know, we we you know, we knew. And let

48
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: me tell you what I hated.

49
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 3: We're actually three and a half our drill.

50
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: You can smell the shoes, burn, the shoes burning. We

51
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 2: closed out drilling.

52
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: How about how about the big how about the loose

53
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: ball drills? How about the charge drill? You had to

54
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: take charges from everybody. Boom, boom boom, you're taking charges.

55
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: You know, your life on the line. Oh yeah, loose ball.

56
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: He would put two guys on the in line and

57
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: we go to have he'll roll the ball out, he'll

58
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: blow the whistle and we all had to go. We

59
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: two had to run and get the ball and we

60
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: played one on one from there. Oh it was no deal.

61
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: I mean it was Alcatraz. It was no Yeah.

62
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,440

00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 3: I love it, and I don't like to sound like.

64
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: The beauty of it is is that we developed so

65
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: many winning habits that when we got in the game,

66
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: the game was so easy. It was so easy. We

67
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: were like, we don't want to practice, we want to play.

68
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, life it is funny.

69
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,280

103
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 5: Had I had my sports run your surgery when I

104
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 5: was here for play for Miami, and I'll never forget.

105
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 5: As I was getting back, they put me on that bike.

106
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 5: I walked over. I walked over.

107
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 4: I said, man, I'm practicing.

108
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: I remember that I ain't doing that ship. I was

109
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: on that when you could be on that bike if

110
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: you didn't have you had lower extremity issues and you

111
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: can peedo bike.

112
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 3: Bruh.

113
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: You were like Layd Armstrong over and Bill okay running.

114
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 4: That's that's not how this plays out.

115
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, man, and this is what

116
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: I learned. Like that that mindset, that that that will

117
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 2: to do whatever it takes to succeed and to put

118
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: yourself in a winning situation even if people think you're

119
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: sucking up, it's lost. That ship helps me outside of basketball,

120
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 2: outside of he coaching. You can take the things that

121
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 2: we learned in that mindset and you can apply that

122
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: ship in anything.

123
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: But you know, but there's a lot of guys because

124
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: they don't know about that. They don't they wouldn't value

125
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: something like that. They look at it as disciplined, like

126
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: the disciplined to me, were practicing this loan or and no, no,

127
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: we are developing some armor to help you deal with

128
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 1: adversity come game time, you know, they help you deal

129
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: with challenges, you know, when the game starts. You know,

130
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: So I was ready for anything you.

131
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 5: Said, and here you're right, Like one thing about it

132
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 5: being here is games were easy.

133
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 3: Games were sure, That's all.

134
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: It was very much, you know, so hard working, most professional,

135
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: hardest working, most professional, toughness, meanest, nastiest, best condition. Uh,

136
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: all these you know adjectives, you know, put together to

137
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: create our culture, you know, and we hold people to

138
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: a high standard, especially being in the best shape of

139
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: your life. That's where it starts, you know, because you

140
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: in order for you to perform at your your optimal,

141
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: optimal condition, then you you got to really take pride

142
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: into being in the best shape of your life. And

143
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: it's a lot of guys that don't. They don't value that.

144
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,679
Speaker 1: They really don't. They don't make that investment. You knows,

145
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: and you use that now we can use the analogy.

146
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 1: It's whose saying boat whose same boat with? Would train

147
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 1: for four years the one race? Yeah yeah, yeah, nine seconds?

148
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 1: You know, so why can't we train and get ourselves

149
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: in excellent condition to go out there and play eighty

150
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: two games?

151
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 5: It's what we're I mean, what you're saying there you

152
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 5: can talk about was in Lebron James what.

153
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,840

Speaker 1: you know, because the salary clapped, no doubt, you know.

260
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 1: And then our practice facility, like I said, it was

261
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 1: a recreational center, and I remember our first practice locker room,

262
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: so we our locker room was it was some old

263
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 1: people that just worked out in the rec center. They

264
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 1: were in there with.

265
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: Old balls and all over the place before practice my stomach.

266
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: First of all gods, the outer bounds was the wall,

267
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: so you had the out of bounds line right here

268
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: and you had to walk right there. So the whole

269
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: gym when we practiced, all the out of bounds so

270
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: we were running walk with no paths on the wall

271
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: or none of that, you know. So that's how it

272
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: started here in Miami in nineteen ninety five. That games

273
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: we played our games in the old Arena. Yeah, I

274
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: was right here and over town, which literally is maybe

275
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: half a mile away from the new arena. Yeah. Yeah,

276
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: and you know, being in that old arena and I

277
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: kind of miss, uh the atmosphere in there because uh,

278
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: we were closer to the fans, you know, so there

279
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: was more of a you know, homely homelysphere, more connections.

280
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, most definitely.

281
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: You know.

282
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 2: So now you can ask you a question off that

283
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 2: outside outside MINDI in the nineties outside where you got.

284
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 3: Some paper, I felt like video.

285
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: I tell people this all the time. I've never been

286
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 2: to South Beach till I got NBA.

287
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, so you just tell me, you know what,

288
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: you know, what you want to tell.

289
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: But don't tell me everything, you know what you want

290
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 2: to tell.

291
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 1: You know what sad me about that though, you hadn't

292
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 1: been to South Beach, Because there's kids in Miami right

293
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: now that live fifteen minutes from the beach and they've

294
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: never been. And we got millions of people from all

295
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: over the world that come in here to visit our beaches,

296
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: you know, and it's unfortunate. It's like this is invisible

297
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: wall up. Even adults. You got adults that's never been

298
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: to the beach because they don't feel like it's for them.

299
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: They didn't feel like it don't belong to them. Yeah,

300
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: they didn't think it's for them. You know, it's a

301
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: public damn beach, you know. You know. So that's one

302
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: of the things that we do in our foundation, you know,

303
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: we try to part of their development. We try to

304
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: expose them to parts of Miami that they haven't seen.

305
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: And part of that is just taking them to the beach,

306
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: put their foot in the sand and put their feet

307
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: in the water and what have you. You know. So, but

308
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: Miami back then was only popping man. I had a club,

309
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I had a club on South Beach right

310
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:03,160

Speaker 2: Got Pa to come to the club.
