0:22
Speaker 1: to commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan Coachman was black.
0:25
Speaker 2: He caught them the game last night, although they won
0:28
Speaker 2: the game. You're listening just to Godson Company.
0:32

0:50
Speaker 1: up to me. Well, we'll make that feel good. We're

0:55
Speaker 1: out there. Max Crosby the NFL taking over the Wednesday
0:59
Speaker 1: night before Thanksgiving and Bam becoming the second What is
1:06
Speaker 1: he second behind Will Chamberlain in terms of points scored
1:09

1:17
Speaker 1: three things in front of you, where would you start
1:20
Speaker 1: this show today?
1:21
Speaker 4: I mean, it's got to be Max Crosby. It's gotta
1:24
Speaker 4: be Taylor Italy beating USA.
1:28
Speaker 2: That wasn't one of the options.
1:30
Speaker 4: I mean Thanksgiving. Make the options.
1:33
Speaker 2: Because it's football.
1:34
Speaker 1: I mean, the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving is a perfect
1:37
Speaker 1: night for football. In fact, I would say I would
1:40
Speaker 1: rather have football on Wednesday before Thanksgiving than Thanksgiving Day.
1:44
Speaker 2: How about that? This is a fun game you're playing.
1:48
Speaker 5: I'm going to here, keep this conversation as short as possible.
1:52
Speaker 5: Let this conversation be as short as possible while I
1:55
Speaker 5: sit here.
1:55
Speaker 2: And stew in my anger.
1:56
Speaker 1: Yeah right, I'll let you decide where we start today.
1:59
Speaker 1: Is he will get some extra if you want to
2:00
Speaker 1: go Bam. I mean thank you, Stu, Yes, Stu, I
2:07
Speaker 1: don't know.
2:09
Speaker 5: I didn't know rather that anything could get my fire
2:14
Speaker 5: burning as much as what happened from the end of
2:18
Speaker 5: last night through this morning. And so I'm kind of
2:22
Speaker 5: happy that I've been reawakened a bit by I would
2:27
Speaker 5: argue stupidity across the land when they discussed this Bam
2:31
Speaker 5: out of Bio eighty three point performance. It first of all,
2:35
Speaker 5: stup I don't need to ask you if you watched
2:37
Speaker 5: a Tuesday night game between the Heat and the Wizards.
2:40
Speaker 5: But I can tell that everybody else who has commented
2:42
Speaker 5: on this that I have heard from so far did
2:44
Speaker 5: not did not watch anything other than after maybe BAM
2:48
Speaker 5: had seventy and then just tuned in for you know,
2:51
Speaker 5: the end where it was. Some would argue on ethical basketball, okay,
2:57
Speaker 5: but if the first thing you comment on about this
3:00
Speaker 5: and that eighty three point performance do is the end,
3:03
Speaker 5: I don't want to hear a word about what you're
3:05
Speaker 5: talking about.
3:06
Speaker 2: Whether it be a coach on the podium, emy.
3:09
Speaker 5: Udoka, JJ Reddick who doesn't know anything about what happened
3:13
Speaker 5: but only watched maybe the end or looked at the
3:15
Speaker 5: box score, I don't want to hear your opinion. Tim
3:18
Speaker 5: McMahon talking about oh, I'd rather watched Victor wimbin Yama's
3:23
Speaker 5: thirty nine ethical points than this. Again, you didn't watch
3:27
Speaker 5: any of it, so don't say what you would rather
3:30
Speaker 5: have watched because Stu that first first of all whole
3:34
Speaker 5: first half, but that.
3:35
Speaker 2: First quarter, yeah, Bam.
3:38
Speaker 5: When no Tyler Hero, no Norm Powell, no Andrew Wiggins,
3:43
Speaker 5: no Koalel where it's like, okay, everything's on me to
3:47
Speaker 5: maintain this winning streak, to keep us in that sixth
3:49
Speaker 5: spot that we sort of have a hold on. And
3:52
Speaker 5: it was absolutely beautiful basketball band Like the thirty one
3:57
Speaker 5: points he scored in that first quarter, it's not just amazing,
4:02
Speaker 5: but to see where he came from as nothing but
4:05
Speaker 5: a defender and a lob threat who most people couldn't
4:07
Speaker 5: think could shoot outside of five feet, is sitting here
4:10
Speaker 5: pulling up from three on number two pick Alex Saar
4:14
Speaker 5: from two years ago. And Alex Sar was playing his
4:17
Speaker 5: ass off in that first quarter too, and Bam was
4:20
Speaker 5: just absolutely murdering this team and then had a career
4:24
Speaker 5: high by halftime. But everybody just.
4:27
Speaker 1: Wants to talk about the last few minutes and how
4:29
Speaker 1: the Heat were involved in this Tom foolery to get
4:31
Speaker 1: Bam out of Bayo with the ball.
4:33
Speaker 2: What happened in the last few minutes, I'm unaware of it.
4:36
Speaker 1: I listened, I was unaware of what happened in our
4:38
Speaker 1: first twelve minutes alone.
4:39
Speaker 2: In the last few minutes.
4:40
Speaker 1: What happened in the last few minutes where everyone's outraged
4:43
Speaker 1: about it they kept him in too long? What happened, yes,
4:45
Speaker 1: a lot of that. Basically, what happened was there was
4:48
Speaker 1: the only scoring option. I mean, what do you you know.
4:50
Speaker 5: He was and so the substitution patterns were already different. Right,
4:54
Speaker 5: Normally in the first half, kalel Ware and Heinihawk's junior
4:59
Speaker 5: come in for and Pella Larson. Well, there was no
5:02
Speaker 5: Khalil War, so Bam stayed in the entire first quarter,
5:04
Speaker 5: and again.
5:05
Speaker 2: He was cooking.
5:05
Speaker 5: So he just continued to score and had thirty one
5:08
Speaker 5: points and then twelve in the second quarter, so had
5:10
Speaker 5: forty three by halftime. What happened where he got people
5:14
Speaker 5: upset was in the fourth quarter in what was you
5:18
Speaker 5: could say a blowout by most standards, but in today's
5:22
Speaker 5: NBA it was around twenty points for a lot of
5:25
Speaker 5: the time. And so it's at about twenty points maybe
5:28
Speaker 5: with about four or five minutes left, you're like, all right,
5:30
Speaker 5: let's shut it down. But it was hovering around there
5:32
Speaker 5: the whole time, and obviously when he gets to sixty,
5:35
Speaker 5: it's like, hey, let's feed him.
5:36
Speaker 2: When he gets to.
5:36
Speaker 5: Seventy, it's like, we're definitely feeding him. And they just
5:40
Speaker 5: despite the Washington Wizards double triple sometimes quadruple teaming, bam,
5:46
Speaker 5: they were forcing him the ball. They were getting it
5:49
Speaker 5: and the Washington Wizards. So you remember back in the
5:55
Speaker 5: days where like Kobe would have like sixty something through
5:57
Speaker 5: three quarters or it was an a couple of players
6:00
Speaker 5: who have had like huge games through three quarters and
6:03
Speaker 5: they're just like, yeah, no, I'm gonna sit right, I
6:05
Speaker 5: don't need to play.
6:06
Speaker 2: It's a blowout.
6:07
Speaker 5: Yes, what do the fans always want in that situation? Right, like,
6:12
Speaker 5: come on, let him go out there, let him see
6:13
Speaker 5: what he can do. Let him score one hundred if possible. Right, Like,
6:16
Speaker 5: that's the lament of the people who watched Kobe do
6:20
Speaker 5: it through you know, sixty two through three quarters or whatever.
6:22
Speaker 5: And then I think Damian Lillard had another game like that, and.
6:25
Speaker 1: It's just like, no, let's see what can happen, right,
6:28
Speaker 1: Let's see how high he can go, Yes, exactly.
6:30
Speaker 5: And so you know, ethical and ethical say whatever you want.
6:32
Speaker 5: And then the other part about that is is the opposition,
6:34
Speaker 5: like people gave the Toronto Raptors such a hard time
6:38
Speaker 5: for being like, how did you let Kobe get to
6:40
Speaker 5: eighty one?
6:41
Speaker 2: You should have been doing everything possible to get the
6:43
Speaker 2: ball out of his hands.
6:44
Speaker 5: Okay, the Wizards were doing that, and yet they still
6:47
Speaker 5: could not do that without fouling. And because there's a
6:51
Speaker 5: limit to how many times you can foul before somebody
6:53
Speaker 5: goes to the free throw line every time, he was
6:55
Speaker 5: going to the free throw line every single time. So yeah,
6:59
Speaker 5: it's it's he's here, said than done. Oh, triple team
7:02
Speaker 5: and make sure he doesn't get the ball. You never
7:04
Speaker 5: practice that stuff, so you're gonna do it, especially a
7:06
Speaker 5: young team, You're gonna do it by fouling a lot
7:08
Speaker 5: of the time because you don't really recognize what you're doing.
7:11
Speaker 6: Is he I'm on your side in terms of the
7:13
Speaker 6: celebrating Bam more than criticizing. But at a certain point,
7:18
Speaker 6: the Heat were like fouling the Wizards with like two
7:21
Speaker 6: minutes left, the Heat were missing free throws intentionally to
7:24
Speaker 6: get Bam more.
7:25
Speaker 2: Looks right.
7:26
Speaker 1: There were a couple of cringe worthy moments where you said, hey,
7:30
Speaker 1: if that was just the Heat's doing, Like if Washington
7:33
Speaker 1: wasn't doing anything to further anger you, right, Like it's
7:38
Speaker 1: big again, that's what that's supposed to look like.
7:40
Speaker 5: Hey, let's see what he can get. Let's get him
7:43
Speaker 5: the ball as much as possible, and the other team
7:45
Speaker 5: saying no, no, you're not going to do that. And
7:47
Speaker 5: then I will say, here's what I'll say about that. Okay,
7:51
Speaker 5: if there were eight less points scored by bam, right,
7:56
Speaker 5: if all that tomfoolery didn't happen, and let's let's say
7:59
Speaker 5: ten points. Let's say it was a seventy three point
8:02
Speaker 5: game without that, what are you saying then? Right, it's
8:06
Speaker 5: it's a.
8:06
Speaker 1: Huge ridicou seventy three points, that's what they're saying, right,
8:10
Speaker 1: because it.
8:11
Speaker 5: Was ten more let's say eight more points. Whatever you'd
8:13
Speaker 5: want to do the math.
8:14
Speaker 2: On ten gifted Let's be honest. I mean, that's what
8:16
Speaker 2: it sounds like to me.
8:17
Speaker 1: You know, it sounds like what I'm sorry, ten gifted points,
8:20
Speaker 1: that's what it sounds like, butsary points if even if
8:25
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ.
8:26
Speaker 5: It drives me insane because people just want to tack
8:28
Speaker 5: on to the end and what's the last few minutes
8:31
Speaker 5: and not give any sort of credit for what was
8:35
Speaker 5: one of, if not the most shocking shocking NBA performance
8:42
Speaker 5: of all time.
8:43
Speaker 1: Yes, I would say it was the most shocking NBA
8:45
Speaker 1: performance of all time.
8:47
Speaker 2: And all people want to do is criticize what's up?
8:48
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, they gifted him ten points at the end.
8:51
Speaker 1: It seems like according to Taylor, go ahead.
8:53
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say it.
8:53
Speaker 4: It muddies up my stat sheet, it muddies up my records.
8:57
Speaker 7: Okay, I don't want to see Bam out of Bio,
8:59
Speaker 7: above Kobe Bryant and Underwill Chamberlain.
9:02
Speaker 2: I don't want to see that name. I don't care
9:04
Speaker 2: what you want. I don't want to see of course
9:05
Speaker 2: not of course you don't. I don't you know what
9:07
Speaker 2: people don't know, but it is he.
9:09
Speaker 1: The larger point is people love Kobe so much BAM's number.
9:12
Speaker 1: BAM wouldn't be second on that list if the you know,
9:15
Speaker 1: the heat kept, if the heat took him out of
9:16
Speaker 1: the game when they should have that's the point, you know.
9:18
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, they didn't have any players, like,
9:21
Speaker 5: everybody was hurt, so he was going to play more
9:23
Speaker 5: minutes and take it out when they again, it's everybody
9:27
Speaker 5: wants to say one thing or the other. They want
9:29
Speaker 5: Kobe to come back in the game when he has
9:31
Speaker 5: sixty two through three, but they want Bam out when
9:33
Speaker 5: he has seventy.
9:34
Speaker 2: It's such bullshit.
9:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it feels like Kobe should have sixty two
9:38
Speaker 1: seventy points. It feels like Bam should never even and
9:40
Speaker 1: if you watch the first three.
9:41
Speaker 5: And a half coroners, Bam should have had everything that
9:44
Speaker 5: he had. Yeah, absolutely ethical. I have no idea except
9:49
Speaker 5: for the last few minutes, which again is what and
9:52
Speaker 5: I'm not even arguing that part. If you want to
9:54
Speaker 5: split hairs between eighty one and eighty three, or Kobe
9:57
Speaker 5: still deserves this, or Kobe the first of all, if
9:59
Speaker 5: Kobe was still with us, he would fully acknowledge Bam
10:02
Speaker 5: and say, hey, somebody else do it. Then if you
10:03
Speaker 5: want to beat him, somebody else do it. But it's
10:05
Speaker 5: just wild that you can't even let the sun rise before.
10:10
Speaker 2: You're just automatically that's not my eighty three points.
10:12
Speaker 5: Yeah, you didn't watch the game, you didn't watch the
10:15
Speaker 5: first three quarters.
10:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, but in my personal record book, it's gonna be
10:18
Speaker 1: seventy three points.
10:19
Speaker 5: Just so you know, y fine, most of these people
10:22
Speaker 5: want to say he should have shut it down at
10:24
Speaker 5: halftime or something ridiculous like that he was through one quarter.
10:28
Speaker 5: People like to joke about that a lot of h
10:30
Speaker 5: He's on pace for such and such through halftime. He
10:32
Speaker 5: was on pace to surpass Kobe. He had one of
10:35
Speaker 5: the greatest first halfs I believe six or seven in
10:38
Speaker 5: the history of the NBA. Everybody wants to talk about
10:41
Speaker 5: those last few minutes because that's all they freaking watched.
10:45
Speaker 1: When I go to trivia and I at the bar
10:46
Speaker 1: and the question comes up, who had the second most
10:48
Speaker 1: points in an NBA game? Kobe Bryan And if they
10:52
Speaker 1: tell me I'm wrong, I'm leaving the bar. How about
10:54
Speaker 1: that about paying without paying?
10:56
Speaker 2: You're gonna get.
10:57
Speaker 5: As I can watch some footage of Will stealing points
11:03
Speaker 5: from teammates and then laying it in. You want to
11:05
Speaker 5: talk about ethical hoops, like, come on.
11:08
Speaker 2: Bro, yeah, stude.
11:10
Speaker 6: There was one moment where Bam shooting free throws for
11:13
Speaker 6: eighty and eighty one. He gets eighty one to tie Kobe,
11:17
Speaker 6: and the Wizard's announcer Chris Miller says, and out of respect,
11:21
Speaker 6: Eric Spolstro will pull Bam out of Bayo and you
11:23
Speaker 6: see Bam just walking back on defense and he goes, well,
11:26
Speaker 6: I guess he's not pulling Bam.
11:33
Speaker 5: Kobe would absolutely not want somebody to, out of respect
11:39
Speaker 5: tie his record. He'd be like, beat my shit. I
11:42
Speaker 5: don't understand why. Like, if this was I mean.
11:46
Speaker 2: Who is who is the most beloved Hooper? Is it Conkinipple?
11:48
Speaker 5: If this was Conkain Nipple's going eighty three points, America
11:51
Speaker 5: would be like, Wow, what a great basketball player. Instead,
11:55
Speaker 5: it's Bam out of Bayou and they just want to
11:57
Speaker 5: give him shit because of the last few minutes.
11:59
Speaker 7: No, I agree with that, because Kobe Bryant, it was
12:02
Speaker 7: it was greatness. It was always greatness that culminated in
12:06
Speaker 7: that game where he had eighty one. This feels like
12:09
Speaker 7: a fluke. This feels like some I mean, I'm gonna
12:11
Speaker 7: give you this name. You know who Derek Thomas is.
12:14
Speaker 7: Derek Thomas has seven sacks, the most in a game.
12:16
Speaker 7: You know who's second, Adrian Claiborne. You know why because
12:20
Speaker 7: he went up against the third string tackle that game.
12:22
Speaker 7: It's it's a bunch of it's it's a bunch of
12:25
Speaker 7: Oh this was a fluke play as opposed to I
12:28
Speaker 7: saw greatness culminate in one game.
12:30
Speaker 5: Again Alex sar who he absolutely lit up second pick
12:34
Speaker 5: in the draft.
12:35
Speaker 2: Look at this team.
12:36
Speaker 5: This team has talent on it all right, It's not
12:39
Speaker 5: like it's so was Zach Wilson. Okay, but go back
12:42
Speaker 5: and look at the eighty one points that Kobe's Look
12:44
Speaker 5: at that Raptors team. It was about mid season, the
12:47
Speaker 5: little past midseason, they were like ten games under five hundred,
12:50
Speaker 5: and again they weren't doing the things that Washington was
12:54
Speaker 5: doing to get the ball out of Kobe's hands for
12:57
Speaker 5: practically an entire quarter.
12:59
Speaker 6: Is when you're watching Bam score eighty three and even
13:03
Speaker 6: if it was you know, this seventy point game as
13:07
Speaker 6: somebody who cares about the heat, doesn't it make you
13:10
Speaker 6: more upset when you see something like this To be like,
13:13
Speaker 6: Bam is a capable scorer, to be this guy that
13:16
Speaker 6: everybody kind of wants him to be. Bam could be
13:18
Speaker 6: this guy who scores, you know, twenty nine to thirty
13:21
Speaker 6: points a game, and then he has moments like this
13:23
Speaker 6: where it kind of validates what everybody's saying. To be like, see,
13:26
Speaker 6: when Bam is focused on the offensive end, he can
13:30
Speaker 6: be this player.
13:31
Speaker 2: Well, when the rest of the team is on the bench.
13:34
Speaker 5: Yeh, he very rarely has the type of aggressiveness that
13:37
Speaker 5: you saw in the first quarter, and it was because
13:39
Speaker 5: of what Sdue said. It was because hey, there's nobody
13:41
Speaker 5: else here, I have to do this, I think in
13:44
Speaker 5: this First of all, he's never really done that, right,
13:47
Speaker 5: like you're saying, been that aggressive for four quarters because hey,
13:51
Speaker 5: my team needs it all. But also it's this style
13:54
Speaker 5: of play that Miami's in. It's hey, if I can
13:58
Speaker 5: just catch the ball and rip through and go, oh,
14:01
Speaker 5: who else is going to have a better chance of
14:02
Speaker 5: drawing a foul than me?
14:04
Speaker 2: Right?
14:04
Speaker 5: Who else is going to have after his skill? You know,
14:07
Speaker 5: work have the ability to Hey, when I get in
14:09
Speaker 5: the pay I can just go footwork, footwork, get a
14:11
Speaker 5: hook shot up like there. It is the especially last
14:15
Speaker 5: night with no Hero, no Powell, the number one, number two,
14:17
Speaker 5: number three, best option in this offense.
14:20
Speaker 4: But why does it matter who's in and who's out.
14:22
Speaker 6: Why can't Bam just play with that level of aggressiveness
14:25
Speaker 6: on a night in, night out?
14:26
Speaker 1: Basis three point aggressiveness. It's a great point.
14:30
Speaker 5: No, it's great And I think he never had the
14:33
Speaker 5: confidence to do that regularly because he hasn't done that right, Like,
14:38
Speaker 5: it's funny that you're saying that, because as I was
14:40
Speaker 5: going into that game yesterday, I was trying to think of, like,
14:43
Speaker 5: what is it about the Heat that I'm not fully
14:46
Speaker 5: convinced that they can make a playoff run. I was
14:47
Speaker 5: saying it, the don't make a playoff run because Boston's
14:49
Speaker 5: really good, and YadA YadA, and you know it's just
14:51
Speaker 5: their nemesis, but I don't actually believe it is, because
14:54
Speaker 5: who is that player who, despite all physicality, despite everybody
14:58
Speaker 5: paying attention to you defensively, could still rise up and
15:01
Speaker 5: give you like those fifteen points in a quarter that
15:03
Speaker 5: says you can't stop me. It's not going to be Tyler.
15:06
Speaker 2: He's a little too frail.
15:07
Speaker 5: You're gonna have to rely on that outside shooting a
15:09
Speaker 5: little bit too much. And then I saw him do that,
15:12
Speaker 5: and I was like, well, shit, he can do that
15:15
Speaker 5: anytime he wants to. If they're giving him the foul
15:17
Speaker 5: calls properly, he can do that anytime he wants to,
15:19
Speaker 5: and feel fully confident.
15:21
Speaker 2: Now we will be pulling up in the.
15:23
Speaker 5: Fast break from twenty eight feet and splashing it. Probably
15:27
Speaker 5: not right, but that's not the type of aggressiveness you're
15:29
Speaker 5: talking about. That was pretty much a heat check that
15:32
Speaker 5: was like, oh wow, confirmed, I'm on fire. So yeah,
15:35
Speaker 5: to answer your question, I think this game will do
15:37
Speaker 5: that for him. I think he will now be that
15:39
Speaker 5: player whenever the team feels like they need it.
15:42
Speaker 1: What was BAM's career high for a single game before
15:44
Speaker 1: the last night. It's just so out of character for Bam.
15:47
Speaker 1: I'm totally with Mikey on this. I'm not going to
15:49
Speaker 1: take Bam out a bio seriously, as the guy who
15:52
Speaker 1: scored the second most point in an NBA game.
15:54
Speaker 2: It just doesn't fit. It doesn't work for me.
15:57
Speaker 1: It needs to remain Kobe Bryant or Michael, even though
16:00
Speaker 1: Michael never even came close.
16:01
Speaker 5: So I'm sorry that your brain has to adjust the reality.
16:05
Speaker 2: I'm sorry for that.
16:06
Speaker 1: I don't need to adjust to this because it happened.
16:09
Speaker 1: And then you're all you're saying is I can't process this. Well, yeah,
16:13
Speaker 1: take your time, it'll be a minute, but you're.
16:15
Speaker 5: Gonna have to process it because the dude scored eighty three.
16:18
Speaker 5: Go watch the first halt.
16:20
Speaker 2: It was amazing. I don't want to watch the first
16:22
Speaker 2: hand that situation.
16:26
Speaker 6: I mean, is he when you're when you're giving out
16:30
Speaker 6: credit for who deserves the most credit for BAM's eighty three,
16:34
Speaker 6: where would you put Dwayne Wade? Because Dwayne Wade's comments
16:39
Speaker 6: from that episode of The Big Podcast with Shaq where
16:43
Speaker 6: he said the city needs to be woken up talking
16:45
Speaker 6: about Miami, it's not alive no more. When we was here,
16:48
Speaker 6: it was buzzing in the streets because Spolstra and Bam
16:52
Speaker 6: made comments to that after saying like if it's not alive, now,
16:55
Speaker 6: I guess it's gonna be buzzing.
16:56
Speaker 7: Now, Hold on a second, is this a credit pie
16:59
Speaker 7: instead of a are we doing a credit cry?
17:02
Speaker 2: So?
17:02
Speaker 1: Wade motivated a band that kind of game so there
17:05
Speaker 1: could be buzz back in the city. They'll lover be
17:07
Speaker 1: buzz like that again, they had Lebron James, Dwayne Wade,
17:10
Speaker 1: and Chris Bosh. I mean, it was definitely definitely like buzz.
17:13
Speaker 1: It was a great point by Dwayne. Did that do much?
17:16
Speaker 5: I think just having or matching Dwayne as the only
17:19
Speaker 5: players in Heat history I believe to score ten thousand,
17:22
Speaker 5: maybe not the only ones, but matching Dwayne with ten
17:25
Speaker 5: thousand points in a Heat uniform just I think it's
17:29
Speaker 5: like I was saying about his ability to score that
17:31
Speaker 5: and be that guy all of it. He has to
17:36
Speaker 5: experience to confirm it, because like even he would have
17:40
Speaker 5: been like, go back ten years and be like, hey,
17:41
Speaker 5: this is what your career is going to be. Like
17:43
Speaker 5: he'd be like, you're lying that that can't possibly be me,
17:46
Speaker 5: and yet here it is. And so I don't know,
17:48
Speaker 5: Like it's it's what Stu Goats is saying. People can't
17:51
Speaker 5: wrap their minds around it. It is the most shocking
17:54
Speaker 5: performance in the history of the NBA, maybe the most
17:58
Speaker 5: shocking offensive performance in the history of sports. And the
18:02
Speaker 5: answer is, hey, we need to knock it because of
18:06
Speaker 5: the end or because of this small portion that I
18:08
Speaker 5: watched without giving proper respect. Like I'm telling you, man,
18:12
Speaker 5: I'm so glad that I sat there and said I'm
18:15
Speaker 5: gonna watch this entire game because it wasn't really much
18:18
Speaker 5: else on. I didn't even turn to the Houston game,
18:20
Speaker 5: which normally I would do if it was a you know,
18:22
Speaker 5: a BS heat game. I didn't do that. I watched
18:25
Speaker 5: every second. I was yelling to the living room giving
18:27
Speaker 5: Anthony updates. I was like, he's got fifty and Anthony's
18:30
Speaker 5: like boom, and I'm like no, Bam, and he goes,
18:32
Speaker 5: oh ha ha ha, And.
18:33
Speaker 2: It was just an amazing night. It was so much fun.
18:35
Speaker 4: It's the eighth storyline right now on ESPN.
18:38
Speaker 2: That's the other thing that's got me so heaty.
18:40
Speaker 5: It's the second highest NBA story behind Jalen Brown's ejection.
18:45
Speaker 2: What it's about to get knocked down?
18:48
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones just signed a two year deal with Indy.
18:50
Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's big news. We'll get to that in
18:51
Speaker 2: just a second. But is he. Let me use the
18:53
Speaker 2: hitch streak as an example.
18:54
Speaker 1: Okay, Joe DiMaggio fifty six straight games, right, who's in
18:57
Speaker 1: second place?
18:58
Speaker 2: It's Pete Rose and I think forty four.
19:01
Speaker 1: It's not Ray Wordniez Okay, his Pete Rose and Bam
19:06
Speaker 1: being ahead of Kobe Bryant. It just feels weird. It's weird.
19:10
Speaker 1: Bam is not a guy that's supposed to score eighty
19:12
Speaker 1: plus points in a game. I'm glad he did it.
19:14
Speaker 1: I'm happy for you, I'm happy that heat won. I'm
19:17
Speaker 1: never gonna take it seriously. I'm sorry, is he.
19:19
Speaker 4: It's also not even Pete Rose.
19:21
Speaker 1: It's Willy Keeler uh ah, Willie Keeler still makes sense
19:25
Speaker 1: though ter.
19:26
Speaker 5: Point, great, thanks you're helping me a ton.
19:28
Speaker 2: Good Lord can I.
19:31
Speaker 5: It's maddening because it doesn't fit people's narratives.
19:35
Speaker 2: They're gonna get upset about it.
19:36
Speaker 5: And Stu, if you wanted to nitpick about the last
19:40
Speaker 5: few minutes, I would give you that. I'd be like, hey,
19:43
Speaker 5: yes you could. I don't want to get into who
19:46
Speaker 5: started it? Did the Wizards do something first? Didn't he
19:49
Speaker 5: do something first?
19:50
Speaker 2: I get it.
19:50
Speaker 5: People were a little little cringey, but you know who
19:54
Speaker 5: wasn't The people in the stands watching all that shit.
19:57
Speaker 5: They loved it. All of BAM's teammate loved that. And
20:01
Speaker 5: the first thing people want to do is not get
20:04
Speaker 5: it drives me crazy. Tim McMahon compared it to Ricky
20:07
Speaker 5: Davis going after his own rebound for a triple double,
20:10
Speaker 5: and it made me want to throw my phone across
20:13
Speaker 5: the room. It is so fucking ridiculous to talk about
20:17
Speaker 5: this performance that way.
20:19
Speaker 2: Go watch it.
20:20
Speaker 5: Go watch it, because you know what you didn't do?
20:22
Speaker 5: Watch it?
20:23
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, I was watching the Max Crosby coverage. That's
20:26
Speaker 2: why I actually wasn't.
20:30
Speaker 1: I'm looking up Willie Geeler's that's right now to make
20:33
Speaker 1: sure he is deserving of the second longest sitting strink
20:36
Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball.
20:38
Speaker 5: And the thing that drives me crazy is people are
20:40
Speaker 5: gonna say, oh, is he the Miami heat homer. I
20:42
Speaker 5: don't care if it was Demante Sabonus doing this. I
20:45
Speaker 5: don't care if it was a Wednesday night in Portland,
20:49
Speaker 5: I'd be like, this is bleeping amazing. I watched Glenn
20:53
Speaker 5: Rice's fifty six point game when I was a senior
20:55
Speaker 5: in high school in an afternoon on a Sunday afternoon
20:57
Speaker 5: at home, and I remember all of that. I was
21:00
Speaker 5: that Lebron's sixty one point game, and I remember all
21:02
Speaker 5: of that. This deserves all that credit and more because
21:08
Speaker 5: he's not somebody that you would expect to do it.
21:10
Speaker 5: Because of the way he did it, I'm telling you, man,
21:13
Speaker 5: it is. I never thought that this type of fire
21:15
Speaker 5: was still in me.
21:16
Speaker 2: Here it is, Thanks guys.
21:20
Speaker 1: Keeler batted four twenty four in eighteen ninety seven.
21:23
Speaker 2: How about that? Yeah?
21:25
Speaker 4: Two batting times, big year.
21:27
Speaker 2: Yeah he did. He peaked in eighteen ninety seven.
21:29
Speaker 1: We Willie, Oh, by the way, show me proof that
21:34
Speaker 1: will scored one hundred because as of right now, in
21:36
Speaker 1: my personal record book, which.
21:38
Speaker 5: Includes video footage, BAM has scored the most points in
21:42
Speaker 5: the history of the NBA first single game.
21:44
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, show me twenty four with a three eighty five.
21:48
Speaker 2: I mean this killer guy should be there.
21:53
Speaker 5: Scrappy Asia Wilson was there though his mom was there.
21:58
Speaker 2: Uh what again? I mean it was the Wizards. The
22:02
Speaker 2: only thing that broadcast was missing was Jeremy Tasha. I
22:08
Speaker 2: have not seen you this passionate about anything.
22:11
Speaker 1: I'm serious, flag football, anything going on in your life,
22:15
Speaker 1: the gym, your leg trainer, you have, how disproportioned anything
22:20
Speaker 1: in years.
22:21
Speaker 2: I mean, he shows you.
22:22
Speaker 5: How disproportionate this reaction is and how egregious it is.
22:26
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. Give the man his credit, right, But why
22:29
Speaker 2: do you care what other people are saying? You watch it.
22:31
Speaker 5: Because it sets the narrative, because for the for all.
22:34
Speaker 2: Since no one gets to set.
22:36
Speaker 5: The narrative for you, which you're antive.
22:38
Speaker 2: You let it be impressive.
22:41
Speaker 5: Absolutely they do, No, Absolutely they do. When you immediate everybody,
22:46
Speaker 5: the entire media, everybody blames the media for SHOCKABA ball.
22:49
Speaker 5: When you immediately drop the headline and make it non
22:53
Speaker 5: existent and I don't know what they're how they do that.
22:55
Speaker 5: I don't know what the algorithm is for where they
22:57
Speaker 5: put their headlines. But it's complete nonsense when you immediate
23:00
Speaker 5: spend the entire night finding nothing but criticism for it.
23:04
Speaker 5: It's when Kobe did it, it was like, Wow, he
23:07
Speaker 5: is so amazing. This guy's going to score one hundred
23:10
Speaker 5: one day, one of the greatest scores I've ever seen.
23:13
Speaker 2: This is great.
23:14
Speaker 5: Bam does it, and it's like it's a fluke, it's
23:16
Speaker 5: an embarrassment to the game. It just and that's going
23:19
Speaker 5: to live forever, and it's not a fucking embarrassment to
23:22
Speaker 5: the game. The last few minutes might have been something
23:25
Speaker 5: that you could, you know, don't love, but the entirety
23:28
Speaker 5: of the game, the entirety of.
23:30
Speaker 2: The performance, deserves so much bleeping credit.
23:33
Speaker 4: So Stu.
23:33
Speaker 6: Right now people are saying, do it again, somebody that's
23:36
Speaker 6: not the Wizards do it without shooting forty plus free throws.
23:39
Speaker 6: Bucks at heat Tomorrow seven thirty a change of the
23:43
Speaker 6: narrative game for Bam out of Bayo.
23:45
Speaker 2: Oh is it really right now?
23:46
Speaker 1: But listen, izz, he has had such a positive impact
23:49
Speaker 1: on me on my life. Okay, on the way I
23:52
Speaker 1: kind of view things he really has. And I am
23:54
Speaker 1: trying to help my friend out here. When you have
23:57
Speaker 1: a night like last night and it's one of your
23:59
Speaker 1: favorite players on your favorite team in your favorite sport,
24:03
Speaker 1: just enjoy it. Stop worrying about what Frank Issola is
24:07
Speaker 1: saying about.
24:08
Speaker 2: What guys like Country are saying about Bam. Who care?
24:12
Speaker 1: They didn't watch the game either, And so when I
24:14
Speaker 1: say fuck all of sports media, I mean it. Who cares?
24:18
Speaker 1: They are thinking fishing for things to talk about. They
24:21
Speaker 1: are fishing for angles, different angles to sound different than
24:24
Speaker 1: everyone else, And who cares what they have to say?
24:27
Speaker 1: It was your night, it was BAM's night, and I
24:30
Speaker 1: don't care what Chris Brusard has to say about it
24:34
Speaker 1: later today, don't never care what he has to say. Well,
24:36
Speaker 1: there you go, see that, Hey step in the right
24:38
Speaker 1: direction about that.
24:40
Speaker 6: How is he feels about NBA reporters right now is
24:43
Speaker 6: exactly how I'm feeling about USA's manager Mark Derossa.
24:47
Speaker 2: We got wet Why.
24:53
Speaker 5: I cannot believe that? So I actually I flipped over
24:59
Speaker 5: the WBC. I was like, hey, let's see who made
25:01
Speaker 5: it a salad. Let's see if Italy versus the United States.
25:05
Speaker 1: Is actually interesting. That's a great Cody drop right there.
25:08
Speaker 1: And they were losing six to nothing and then went
25:10
Speaker 1: down eight to nothing. And that's all the WBC that
25:12
Speaker 1: i'd seen.
25:13
Speaker 5: And then I went on the internet, and then I
25:16
Speaker 5: realized that the manager before the game had no idea
25:19
Speaker 5: whether they've already advanced, because he announced we already punched
25:22
Speaker 5: our tickets to the quarterfinal. And not only was that
25:24
Speaker 5: not true, it remains untrue.
25:27
Speaker 2: Huh.
25:28
Speaker 6: The USA, if you've been following the World Baseball Classic,
25:32
Speaker 6: which a lot of people haven't been, and.
25:34
Speaker 2: A lot of people have not, the USA has.
25:38
Speaker 6: Told you what they think about this World Baseball Classic
25:40
Speaker 6: the entire time. You have Terrek Scouble getting ready to
25:44
Speaker 6: go back to spring training. You have Mark de Rosa saying,
25:47
Speaker 6: we want to win this game even though our tickets
25:49
Speaker 6: punched the quarterfinals. Is he There was another clip where
25:52
Speaker 6: he was interviewed before the game. He said, man, after
25:55
Speaker 6: we clinched yesterday, the guys got after it. There's some
25:58
Speaker 6: guys dragging today. They're going slow, So we're gonna give
26:01
Speaker 6: some guys days off. Bryce Harper got the day off,
26:04
Speaker 6: Cal Rawley got the day off, and then Italy comes
26:06
Speaker 6: out there and it's a bunch of it's a bunch
26:09
Speaker 6: of New Jersey guys that are cause playing as Italians
26:12
Speaker 6: on this team, and they absolutely smoked them.
26:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, way to the United States was partying and celebrating
26:21
Speaker 1: for something they didn't accomplish, Yes, pretty much, and here
26:27
Speaker 1: we are for something he did accomplish. I want to
26:30
Speaker 1: say I'm upset with them, but I'm sort of proud
26:32
Speaker 1: of them. You know, now, Taylor, what has to happen
26:35
Speaker 1: for them to advance? And forget about this and more?
26:38
Speaker 1: Better question, what has to happen for them not to
26:40
Speaker 1: advance so they can live in this for eternity.
26:43
Speaker 6: So the easiest way for USA to advance is Italy
26:47
Speaker 6: just wins against Mexico tonight. That's that's the easiest path.
26:52
Speaker 6: Other than that, if Mexico wins, if Mexico scores five
26:56
Speaker 6: plus runs, because Jesus, the tiebreaker is run differential. So
27:02
Speaker 6: if Mexico wins, USA needs Mexico to score five or
27:06
Speaker 6: more runs, and then Mexico and the USA advance. If
27:09
Speaker 6: Mexico wins and they score four or less runs, Italy
27:12
Speaker 6: and Mexico advance. And now there's a scenario here where
27:16
Speaker 6: Italy and Mexico get together and say, hey, Mexico, we're
27:19
Speaker 6: gonna let you guys win this game.
27:21
Speaker 4: Yes, one nothing game, because.
27:23
Speaker 6: If both of us move on to the quarterfinals, we
27:26
Speaker 6: both have better chances if Team USA is out, So.
27:29
Speaker 1: Italy gets in regardless. You're saying they're in already now, No, ok,
27:33
Speaker 1: all right.
27:33
Speaker 6: The one scenario Italy doesn't get in is if Mexico
27:37
Speaker 6: beats them tonight and scores more than five runs.
27:40
Speaker 1: So you're saying, Italy Mexico get together in Mexico win
27:42
Speaker 1: the game, but win by three runs. Right, that's that
27:44
Speaker 1: way we're all in. We keep the United States out
27:46
Speaker 1: of it. They look like fools forever. Yes, I'm really
27:50
Speaker 1: against the United States. I cannot believe they created. It's
27:52
Speaker 1: an area, thank you, Mark de Rosa where I have
27:55
Speaker 1: a trader rooting against the United States because what a
27:58
Speaker 1: bunch of clowns for doing what they did.
28:00
Speaker 2: I love the idea of some Taylor being part of
28:04
Speaker 2: Team USA and just.
28:05
Speaker 7: Being like, hey, guys, we already clinched, and somebody goes, hey,
28:07
Speaker 7: did you hear that that guy Taylor said we already clinched.
28:10
Speaker 2: What farting. Essentially.
28:13
Speaker 7: Essentially, the magic number is four runs for Italy tonight.
28:16
Speaker 4: If Italy scores four runs, the USA is going on.
28:20
Speaker 2: That's how even if.
28:21
Speaker 5: You take away BAM's fourth quarter entirely and just spoke
28:25
Speaker 5: about the first three quarters, right, I'd be okay with that.
28:29
Speaker 5: That's the type of attention. Then what fun would that
28:31
Speaker 5: be just talking about the first three quarters? So that
28:33
Speaker 5: way you can get your biases out of there and
28:36
Speaker 5: just talk about what an amazing like he had, like
28:38
Speaker 5: seventy points before all the crazy nonsense has started to happen.
28:42
Speaker 1: Yes, but the difference between seventy and where he ended
28:44
Speaker 1: up is historical, and that's why people are saying, like, hey,
28:47
Speaker 1: that's Kobe was second. I don't need Bam in there,
28:50
Speaker 1: playing in minutes that he shouldn't be playing in with
28:52
Speaker 1: against a bad team with no teammates that are healthy.
28:56
Speaker 2: Take them out of the game in the game again.
28:57
Speaker 5: And again, give me the same exact situation. But he's
29:01
Speaker 5: pulled in three. You're gonna be sitting right where you
29:04
Speaker 5: are at the Family Report saying give him a.
29:06
Speaker 2: Chance to break the record.
29:08
Speaker 5: I matchine what that would have been like Bam over Kobe.
29:11
Speaker 5: It would have been nonsense chaos. That's what you would
29:13
Speaker 5: have asked That's what you would have asked for. But
29:14
Speaker 5: now that it's happened, you're like, oh, no, change my mind.
29:17
Speaker 5: Didn't want that. It's all nonsense, bro.
29:19
Speaker 2: It was a blowout. Would went home. Game six of
29:24
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals wasn't even that much of a blow out.
29:26
Speaker 5: You just had the Spurs come back from a twenty
29:28
Speaker 5: five point deficit.
29:29
Speaker 2: And I know, I know the Wizards are not the Spurs.
29:31
Speaker 5: I know, but it's also an NBA game where the
29:35
Speaker 5: other team is still playing, it's healthy, quality players, and
29:39
Speaker 5: you the only starter you have in there is Bam.
29:42
Speaker 5: Everybody else is a bench player. Yeah, but nobody wants
29:45
Speaker 5: to talk about that. Wizards, four guys around Bam, find
29:50
Speaker 5: a way to not foul him, find a way to
29:53
Speaker 5: not found What everybody else wanted to do is have
29:55
Speaker 5: Bam throw it to the guy under the rim who's
29:58
Speaker 5: got no team, no no defenders around them, to get
30:00
Speaker 5: a layup. Okay, you really think the Wizards are just
30:03
Speaker 5: gonna keep doing that. It was gonna happen eventually. The
30:06
