This is such a great watch. Two OG Gators legends interviewing two new Gators legends. Love the mutual respect. Haslem and Miller have some great advice for them as they both look to enter the league.
Been subbed to them for a while now, always a fun watch/listen. This was fun. UD has a mildly annoying tendency to ask a question and then answer it with everything knows about the question he asked, as opposed to letting the guy answer the question on his own lol
Honestly, I love UD and Mike Miller, but if they weren't Gators, they're is no way I could listen to them. UD is a horrible interviewer for the reason you stated and other reasons and Mike Miller just laughs the whole time. It was so discombobulated with everyone talking at the same time. But, it's a podcast. It's not like they are professionals, so I can't expect too much.
They had BD on earlier this season. That was a better episode because it seemed like they still deferred to the head ball coach. No talking over him.
Having success in their chosen sport does not mean you can coach...or talk about it in a coherent or entertaining manner. Collinsworth and even his younger, less talented brother Doering, are as rare as hen's teeth. Thank goodness he/they are "one of us." Right now, in basketball, Cory Alexander is about the best rendition of a former player turned analyst/entertainer.
Yes he's not the best interviewer but no one can doubt his dedication to the sport and the Heat franchise. I like that he offered he mentorship to both of them, few know what it takes to have a long NBA career like Udonis Haslem. A 6'8 post player who played through so many changes in style, he brought it every night and was like having a coach on the floor. I like that the older Gators are offering support like this, not to mention the big impact Taurean Green has had. Golden has been great at building on this ongoing legacy but bringing in BD and Gator greats.
Yes he does. I like that he has some fire in him too. "Everybody know my game. Tough shots, they goin' in." No one can argue that
Watched yesterday Jeff, did you rush to buy your "Dove" products? lol. It was fun. Walt seems much more comfortable in front of the mike than A-Mart. I do like hearing what A-Mart has to say. No doubt UD has some serious wisdom to impart should the guys consider it. I liked his "It's a Lifestyle". UD's comments about Lebron's prep before a 10:00 AM practice was STUNNING, if true. I'm glad those two are on great terms, I thought the press tended to overshadow A-Mart's contributions at times, I'm glad he seems to handle that well. Walter may fill it up but A-Marts dunks were incredible for a guy his height and length. Had rocket boosters in his tennis shoes IMO. Walter has serious lift too but Martin was unreal. Really hope it works out for both of them. Gator hero's for sure.
