Locked On Heat - Daily Podcast On The Miami Heat22 Aug

EMERGENCY POD: Klay Thompson is Signing With the Miami Heat

Wes Goldberg and David Ramil jump on for an emergency Locked On Heat podcast after the Dallas Mavericks bought out Thompson and Shams Charania reported that the five-time All-Star will sign a two-year, $13 million contract with Miami, including a player option for the second season.

Why were the Heat willing to wait this long for Klay — even while other veterans came off the board? Wes shares what he had been hearing about Miami’s confidence that Thompson would eventually become available and why people around the NBA never expected Dallas to find a trade partner. Then, Wes and David break down the basketball fit. How much shooting does Klay add around Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo? Should he start? Can Miami protect him defensively, and does this solve the Heat’s biggest roster problem? Finally, with DeMar DeRozan headed to Denver, what does Miami do with its remaining roster spot?
