Locked On Heat - Daily Podcast On The Miami Heat

Ben Golliver of The Washington Post joins me to talk about his new book, "Bubble Ball: Inside the NBA's Fight to Save a Season" to talk about his life in the Orlando "bubble," Erik Spoelstra's evolution, Jimmy Butler's willpower, and how the 2021 Heat stacks up last year's magical playoff run.

Ben's book is available everywhere on May 4, but you can pre-order now via Amazon or other online sellers.
