Dwane if your reading this please hire a editor and someone trustable who can manage your channel and make clips out of your podcasts for you and post them on KZbin and other platforms so your channel and content can reach more people ! This was a great interview more people need to see.

Shootout to the Godfather man, what an interview! 1h and 30 min literally flew away, I could hear him talking for other 3 hours. He's so calm and remembers everything and has a story for everything, a living legend and NBA historian, being an integral part of the league for almost 60 years. All love from Italy to you d Wade for this episode!

[@AlainNavasDrama]

Pat Riley statistically as a player, assistant, coach, executive has been involved im 25% of ALL NBA finals …it’s a crazy stat…one out of four finals involves Pat Riley

[@ccooper7871]

I could listen to 6 hours of these 2!

I dont care what everyone say's but for me of all the NBA: players, coaches, GM's, Presidents, CEOS etc, PAT RILEY is THE GOAT of ALL of em '

[@ovittz9903]

[@recrevs963]

Wonderful conversation. One can see that these two gentleman besides being impeccably dressed, do love and care for each other. Very well prepared by Dwayne and Mr. Riley always has interesting perspective. Two legends of basketball.

[@LastNameInTown]

This was literally a dream come true. Pat is so humble and so honest. As many have said, I could listen to you both talk for hours and hours. Thank you to everyone who made this a reality. #HeatLifer #HeatCulture 🔥🔥🔥🏆🏆🏆

[@kiezech1]

listening to pat Riley is like listening to the grandfather I never had. The fact the Miami Heat and I were born in 88, makes it even more special.

[@Ivanhouser]

As a heat lifer, this was absolutely fantastic to be able to watch and listen. Thanks Dwyane!

Not sure there will be a better basketball interview than this one in many many years to come. Consistency feels like the pinnacle of good things in life and do you know who's the most consistent ever? God is. Thank you Lord, thank you Jesus, thank you Holy Spirit.

My 🐐’s that 06 finals made me a Dwade fan for Lyfe I bought them Converses and Jersey right after as a kid

[@redpillrich]

Nice, been a fan since 05. That means I been through the struggle of watching them lose to Detroit. That hurt the most besides getting swept in 2007.

[@armandoanillo9511]

Please bring coach Spo to the pod. Go heat!

[@marcstarcke1604]

I don't mind Heat Culture and those words Pat refers to, but what does aggravate me is having those words plastered on the court to be used as fodder to anger and motivate the opponents. And burn those uniforms with 'Heat Culture' written on the front of them. Doesn't anyone believe in jinx and superstitions any longer? This is the ultimate jinx!

[@nandoperez9925]

I was hoping for Pat to say his biggest regret was letting Dwyane leave and not paying him the money that he deserved. I feel like Wade wanted to hear him say it too.. Pat is old so he probably forgot that he admitted that he regrets letting Wade leave. Great interview tho.

I like the pod but don’t upload a full video everyday or every other day. Do a full video one day then a couple shorts of your next video to fill in day two and then the full new video on day three. That will give you more time to yourself or family and get us excited about the new video.

Now I'm wishing more nba players would take the Jordan route after retiring and disappear now former players are just bums all these podcast interviews etc is like devaluing there legacy some of these stories shouldn't be for the public

[@Laflare_3x]

Nah it’s better that players get to tell their story instead of letting the media control their story with narratives. Guys like Wade, Melo, Shaq need podcast it’s great for us fans who can’t watch them play anymore.

[@StaylowK]

@@Laflare_3x Or go do a 60 minutes interview giving exclusive on career or a Netflix special and let that ride out KZbin podcast just downgrading for someone like Wade and his resume

[@kendallboultsjr]

I think it’s great they have podcasts honestly. They get to tell their stories their way, and not have someone else control the narrative.

[@rjmacready9828]

the 06 heat are far and away the worst and most undeserving championship in sports history, sad the nba had to rig it for dwade and shaq

[@anthony1881]

This was great BUT I was waiting for you to ask Riley why they gave all your money to bum ass Whiteside and if he realized how bad he fucked up when you ended up in Chicago.
