In this episode of The Timeout with Dwyane Wade, Dwyane and Bob welcome Udonis Haslem to break down the playoffs.

UD comes in with two stories that say everything about his championship mindset, playing through a broken finger in 2012 and snatching Jeremy Lin’s shoe out of Dwyane’s hand mid-game because he was “seeing red.”

On the East, they focus on how Cleveland will try to wear down Jalen Brunson, the paint battle between Mobley, Allen, KAT, and Mitchell Robinson, and give Donovan Mitchell his flowers for bouncing back in Game 7. Out West, Dwyane says Wembanyama has no weaknesses on either end while UD breaks down why OKC’s trio of Holmgren, Jaylin Williams, and Hartenstein are built to handle him.

They also debate Anthony Edwards walking off with eight minutes left and praise SGA’s back to back MVPs.
