Ep 114Big Shot Bob - Ep 114 - Sweep Your Peeps
EWe open the show with the fallout from Los Angeles after the Nuggets swept the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals, and how Rob is now unemployed until he gets a new contract with Spectrum. Rob was also in the building for Game 4 and talks about how he noticed the Nuggets hyping each other up and how good Jokic was when he was needed. That also stems from Mike Malone’s coaching, which Rob also says was way better than the Lakers game plan. Rob also does NOT buy the rumor that LeBron wants to retire, and also doesn’t buy the rumor that the Lakers are looking to trade for Trae Young. We also try to figure out where Anthony Davis was most of the series, how no one is buying the LeBron “retirement” rumors, and what it would take for the Lakers to actually trade for Trae Young. Plus the Heat have been playing amazing basketball, probably part of the reason why Jalen Brown isn’t happy in Boston anymore. Nike pulls Ja’s shoes, Carmelo leaves a legacy, San Antonio quietly wins again, and a dope Big Shot of the Week to a young man who saved a bus full of middle schoolers. And Rob and B-Dog face off in a hilarious round of Rapid Fire!

Ep 1Big Shot Bob – Shoot Around Ep 1 – All Bowling Matters
bonusERobert Horry and the crew return again this week, as we start to roll out a second bonus-show every week. Different from our regular NBA show, the “Shoot Around” tackles some fun pop culture topics, dives into listener questions and let all the guys laugh at some of our funnier life experiences. This week, we find out about Rob’s most destructive teammates, we find out that black folks love to bowl, and we find out which players Rob would have liked to see win a ring. Plus we discuss movie sequels, old-woman crushes, shark attacks and lessons we learned from our mothers! Two shows a week!

Ep 113Big Shot Bob – Flash Your Guns
EAs we open this week’s show, we get the word that Doc Rivers has been fired from Philadelphia after another second-round exit – and Robert Horry doesn’t think Doc will get another head coaching job in the NBA. We also try to make sense of the Suns firing Monty Williams, and whether or not Kevin Durant will have a say in their next coaching hire. Plus lots on the Ja Morant fallout, an amazing rant from Kwame Brown, and Rob blames Joel Embiid for ALL of the Game 7 loss. Plus how can the Heat beat the Celtics? Why do the Lakers have a match-up advantage against the Nuggets? A dope Big Shot of the Week, and a round of “I Got Fired’ with the circle of NBA coaching changes.

Ep 112Big Shot Bob - Ep112 - The Toughest Ring to Win
ETons of NBA Playoff action to talk about on this week’s show – including why Robert Horry thinks the Lakers won the trade deadline… because all the pieces seem to be working perfectly after the trade deadline moves. Plus we all look ahead to possible Western Conference Finals matchups, and we relish in a terrible Lakers take from ESPN’s Mike Greenberg. And why is everyone so fired up about the idea of Russell Westbrook and Pat Bev getting a ring if the Lakers win the title? We also joke about another terrible Mike Greenberg Heat-Knicks take – that somehow playing in Miami is too tough because of the heat? Like Denver’s thin air isn’t an excuse for the Nuggets? Plus how Rob feels about Jokic pushing Suns owner Matt Ishbia, a super cool Big Shot of the Week for James Harden, Bronny’s commitment to USC, the A’s announcer using the N-word, and a HILARIOUS round of Black Crime or White Crime!

Ep 111Big Shot Bob - Ep 111 - In Your Little Feelings
ERobert Horry is in the thick of the NBA playoffs, covering the Lakers for Spectrum in Los Angeles – and Rob says watching Steph Curry playing in Game 2 of their series earned him some new respect for Steph’s game. In regards to Draymond’s “loss of respect” for Sabonis because they didn’t shake hands, Robert Horry recalls that he NEVER shook anyone’s hand in the NBA, only guys on opposing teams that he knew, so that’s not a big deal for him. We also joke that the Denver Nuggets are pulling a “San Antonio Spurs act” by quietly killing people in the playoffs, and Rob feels like Embiid’s MVP was deserved but carries the air of a “make up” award for last season. Also do the Heat stand a chance without a healthy Jimmy Butler? Did Dillon Brooks bring all this on himself? Will Kyrie Irving land in LA after all? We jump into all those topics, hand out an inspiring Big Shot of the Week, and joke around in a game of “Playing the Percentages”. Like and subscribe, stick with us throughout the playoffs!

Rob admits that all the players want the accolades but treat it like a thorn in their side, and Mac McClung made a name for himself by winning the Dunk Contest. And Vernon Maxwell's reaction to the game in Salt Lake City was hilarious. We also discuss Jordan Clarkson's bling, how Rob has none because that's not who he was, and his flashiest teammate was Shaq. Rob also really disagrees with the Hawks decision to move on from Nate McMillan because Rob thinks Nate is a great coach and a great person, and feels like players like Trae Young need to fall in line and become better teammates in order to find success in Atlanta. We also discuss Russell Westbook in LA with the Clippers, where Rob says he'll have to fall in line with Kawhi and Ty Lue to succeed. We also ask Rob to look into his crystal ball and predict who will meet in the NBA Finals this summer, and who will win it... and his pick is interesting.

Plus Robert Horry says that Patrick Beverley's verbal squabble with the Lakers team reporter was something he'd never do, because these guys cover you for 82 games a year and can create any narrative they want.

And as the NBA trade deadline approaches, Robert says there is no way that the Lakers move either Patrick Beverley or Russell Westbrook, even with all the rumors going around, because neither of them is performing at a high level at the moment. We also debate whether Kareem will be in the building when LeBron breaks his scoring record, Trae Young's behavior in the Atlanta Hawks front office mess, and Rob's reaction to the Luca Doncic mural in Dallas that Mark Cuban found "disrespectful". Also, how many drug tests is too many? - because Ja Morant's on his seventh of the season. And we all appreciate Trevor Lawrence's love for Waffle House.

As we open the show this week, Rob is headed to Egypt for an NBA Africa event, plus we get an incredible breaking update on Damar Hamlin's recovery! Rob also believes there is no truth to the rumor that LeBron would ask for a trade from the Lakers this offseason, largely because his family is rooted in LA and he's never asked for a trade before. We also speculate on how the fans feel about Kyrie Irving, as he is leading the All-Star voting among guards, the improvement in Jayson Tatum's game, and how the East has been taking over as the powerhouse in the NBA. Also we dive into the slide Phoenix has been on lately, and just how dominant Nikola Jokic has been this season, even more so than his previous MVP seasons.

We also play some of the uncomfortable confrontation between Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe following the fallout of Skip's untimely tweet. Plus in the wild NBA, we dial in on some of the explosive offensive performances of the last week, and Rob says it has to do with the better players in the league using the rules to their advantage - where in his day players were called for travels and carries way more than today.

Lastly, B-Dog has an issue with Michigan in the college football playoff, and we all try to figure out if TCU will actually have anything against Georgia in the National Championship Game.

And of course we all have something to say about Draymond Green, as he had a fan ejected from the game against the Bucks, and Rob says Draymond needs to toughen up when it comes to fans, because he remembers having his life threatened many times over in his playing days and always just focused on winning the game. Rob is also a bit unsure about the naming of the new NBA trophies and wonders how long the names will stay before they are renamed again, but also feels there should be an award named for David Stern. Plus Rob tells NBA players that took offense to Zion's 360 dunk at the end of regulation to "get over it" because they all pull antics on the court and you can't pick and choose what to be upset about.

Plus Rob disagrees with Draymond Green's Top 5 all timers because he left Kareem Abdul-Jabbar off the list, and spirals down the rabbit hole of NBA greats.

We also touch on the success of Joel Embiid recently in Philly, and Kyle Kuzma and Kristaps Porzingas putting it together in Washington.

And as the subject turns to Ben Simmons, Rob feels like he should quit if he really doesn't like the media attention that comes with playing pro basketball because he knew that was part of the job when he took it.

Robert Horry and the crew dive right into the Steve Nash firing in Brooklyn, and how the possibility of hiring suspended Celtics coach Ime Udoka is a move they are willing to make because Udoka got Boston to the Finals in his first season. And for Brooklyn at this point, they have nothing to lose and they need a leader. We also dive into the Kyrie drama from this week, and everyone is confused by Kyrie's choice to argue semantics as opposed to just apologizing. Rob also reminds Kyrie that everything he posts is considered promotion due to the size and scale of his platform. Robert also has a personal connection to the tragic shooting of rapper Takeoff in Houston, as his son Cameron hangs out at that same bowling alley and Rob panicked when his phone was going to voicemail that night. We also touch on the Lakers celebrating Darvin Ham's first win in the locker room, the longevity of NBA careers from guys like LeBron, who are the best all-around court players in the league, and some hilarious "burning questions" to round out the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Robert Horry diagnoses the Lakers issues and talks player accountability on the Big Shot Bob Pod
Robert Horry and the crew open the show with an extensive conversation on the Lakers struggles this early in the season, and Rob feels like players should only get a green light to shoot if they understand that their shots are great shots. Rob also has plenty of blame to pass around in LA, starting with Rob Pelilnka, and how much situational awareness has hurt Russell Westbrook, who needs to take accountability for his bad play. Plus Rob backtracks on his dismissal of the New York Knicks after their strong start to the season, thinks Klay Thompson and Devin Booker had a childish fight, and talks about father time coming down on Tom Brady.

We kick off this week's Big Shot Bob podcast by discussing the lack of punishment for Draymond Green, after video surfaced this week of Draymond punching teammate Jordan Poole at practice... and Robert Horry says if the Warriors really want to send a message they would suspend Draymond Green on ring night and force him to get his ring another time. Robert is also confused about why Jae Crowder wants out of Phoenix, because if they want to "go young" then you show up all the youngsters and prove your value to the team. And shockingly, Robert Horry BACKS Davante Adams for shoving the camera man in Kansas City because the same thing happened to him when he played in the NBA! Plus we try to figure out what's going on with Kanye West, and Ben Gordon, give out an inspirational Big Shot of the Week to a Commanders running back, and wrap up the show with an NBA-fights game called "Momma Said Knock You Out"!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rob is also really impressed by Kawhi Leonard and Zion Williamson coming into the season in such great shape and waiting to see what their games look like coming off injuries. Plus Rob calls BS on Patrick Beverley's narrative about him and Westbrook becoming best friends since linking up on the Lakers, and how when Russ gave Pat Bev's sister courtside seats it wasn't a good gesture but more a ploy to soften him up. Rob also compares the Ime Udoka controversy to Phil Jackson dating Jeanie Buss, and explains how Phil and Jeanie had disclosed their relationship to management and neither was with another person at the time. And as Ben Simmons is now telling his side of the Philadelphia departure, Rob says where exactly Ben went wrong with how he handled practice issues with Doc Rivers.

Rob also isn't a fan of the Donovan Mitchell trade to Cleveland because it forces Darius Garland off the ball and creates a situation where two guys are both trying to control the floor. Plus Rob sorts out some NBA drama surrounding the NBA 2K23 ratings (including his involvement in the game) and says that he thinks Serena Williams is the most dominant athlete of all time.

Robert Horry would never forgive Patrick Beverley if he were Russell Westbrook, and thinks Kobe's number retirement league-wide would be troublesome on the Big Shot Bob Pod
Living in LA means that Robert Horry is not allowed to charge his electric car, which leads to a wild and hilarious conversation about our failures with cars in our lives.

After weeks of trade drama, the Kevin Durant situation in Brooklyn ended right where it started, and Robert Horry thinks that Steve Nash didn't seem to care at all because he never said a word. The conversation about KD's trade request turns to a debate about the power the players possess, and how exactly that got started in the NBA. We also look back on Kobe Bryant's birthday, reflecting with Rob about his time playing with Kobe and the amazing career he carved out in 20 years.
