Big Shot Bob Pod with Robert Horry

It’s the weekly bonus show, and we open with a question about our favorite songs, and as that’s a tough one to answer we talk about our favorite artists and the moods that call for them. We also dive into a list of the statistically best players in the league, bringing up a huge debate about how guys are graded and ranked as compared to how they are actually producing on the floor. Rob also weighs in on Wizards guard Ryan Rollins who got caught stealing candles, food and body wash from Target – and it prompts the question, have you ever been caught stealing? Plus the most disappointing player on every roster gets us deep into debate, especially around Jrue Holiday’s inclusion on this list. And Rudy Gobert airballing free throws and getting mocked by Westbrook and the Clippers, leads us to wonder if Rob ever struggled with free throws.

Rob’s son Christian had a huge weekend tournament but missed his “Big Shot” moment, with a smile on his face he joked about it with the media. We also jump right into the Nick Saban retirement news with Alabama alumni Robert Horry, who says he was shocked to see the legend move on. And every coach that got a raise due to the threat of becoming Saban’s replacement owes Nick a bottle of champagne! Plus we get Rob’s take on Austin Reeves being a possible trade option for Dejounte Murray, a move he’s not that excited about. And we haven’t had a better rant than Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic, who called out the NBA referees for “a complete crap” of a game against the Lakers, and enjoyed the hell out of Mike Brown bringing highlights to the post-game presser. Dwyane Wade’s state going up in Miami prompts a conversation about other superstars that deserve a statue that hasn’t gotten one yet. And the conversation about Bill Belichick leaving New England poses the question about whether he was only great because of Tom Brady. Big Shot of the Week goes to an amazing couple feeding the Austin, Texas community, and we close it out with a hilarious round of Rapid Fire!

It’s a huge round of Buy or Sell on the clickbait headlines of the week – including how Rob feels about Joel Embiid’s scoring prowess, LeBron no longer being a Top 10 player, the Clippers winning a title, Luca’s game, the end of the Warrior dynasty, Chet’s Rookie of the Year campaign and Donovan Mitchell wanting out of Cleveland. We also answer listener questions about Pat Bev advocating for more old school trash talk in the NBA, and Rob says never felt baited by trash talk because it was such a common element of the game when he played. Lamar Odom is also pushing for the Lakers to implement the triangle offense, and even though Rob played in that system in LA, he says it takes special players to buy into that format and have it work. And we close it up with old school movies that hold up today, and the man who skinny dipped in a Bass Pro Shops fish tank prompts us to discuss stores that we just don’t get.

Rob opens the show with genuine surprise that the Lakers beat the Clippers, which launches the entire show into a debate about the current status of the Lakers. Plus where do Rob and B-Dog fall in on the criticism surrounding Davin Ham, the Lakers trying to make moves at the deadline, and George Karl blaming AD for the Lakers’ shortcomings this season. And with Draymond Green making his return to the floor, Jenners and B-Dog both lay into him over his retirement sob story to Adam Silver, because this is very much a situation of his own making. B-Dog covers the Hawks for our station in Atlanta and says it’s about to be a fire sale, with the exception of Trae Young and Jalen Johnson Jr. We also send some congratulations to our buddy Shaq for having his jersey retired in Orlando, give up another Big Shot of the Week to Mark Cuban for bonusing all his employees, and Rob and B-Dog square up in another classic round of Shot Clock.

We celebrated the Detroit Pistons snapping their record-setting 29-game losing streak, by discussing things we are not very good at or just never win at… and the front runners are Monopoly, Madden and Fantasy Football. Plus Draymond Green made headlines for attending LeBron’s birthday party – but does it matter that he’s currently suspended? This also leads Rob to talk about the celebrities that threw the best birthday parties, and he shares a story about crashing Vin Diesel’s birthday party in Miami. And ESPN is in trouble for airing a woman flashing her boobs during a shot from Bourbon Street during the Sugar Bowl, so Rob shares his experience at Mardi Gras and talks about other events he wants to attend in his lifetime. And with Jokic saying he wants to be left alone and become “unknown” when his career is over because he hates the attention, we ask Rob if he can relate or has any stories about being baited by the public. Finally Rob has not heard of the Gypsy Rose Blanchard story, which blows everyone’s mind, and we talk about New Year’s Resolutions we set and then end up dodging as we start 2024.

We’re back for a big 2024!! Rob spent the New Year in Portland, watching his son battle in a tournament, and of course both Rob and B-Dog on the woes of the Lakers line-up. Plus Rob weighs in on the Lakers possibly making a move for Dejounte Murray out of Atlanta, but isn’t sure the Lakers are willing to part with the players and picks needed to get him. We also take a look at the standings as we hit the 2024 half of the season, including how good the Thunder have been and what setbacks the All-Star packed Suns have faced. And we never miss an opportunity to pick on Rob after the Alabama Crimson Tide lost the College Football Playoff in terrible fashion… even though Georgia showed the country they were clearly the best team in the country and should have been playing in these games. Plus Ja’s “gunshot” celebration, the MVP ladder that is shockingly missing Anthony Edwards, an inspiring Big Shot of the Week from England, and a hilarious edition of Walmart or Waffle House!

We open the show this week with Ja Morant’s return to the NBA. Rob is really happy to see him back and we all loved the cinematic ending to win the game in his first game back, but the Grizzlies have a mountain to climb in the West. Plus, does the Spurs horrible record affect Wemby’s shot at Rookie of the Year? Especially considering how good Chet Holmgren has been playing as the Thunder continue to roll in the West. And of course we get deep into Draymond’s latest suspension, which screams of a much bigger problem for the Warriors. Rob thinks he will need to address his “on-court aggression” otherwise he may end up hurting his team and it will become a reflection on Steve Kerr’s coaching. Speaking of coaching, we also try to figure out why Ime Udoka is pouring fuel on the Dillon Brooks fire in Houston as opposed to finding a way to grab the reigns and teach this young team the right way to play. B-Dog also has a mixed reaction to the Lakers hanging an In-Season Tournament banner, as everyone believes that it’s nice to celebrate but feels “less than” every other banner in the rafters in Los Angeles. And with all the media buzz around Ant Man saying he wants to “cook LeBron”, Rob feels that is the right attitude to have, and he shouldn’t be dragged for wanting to face off against the best player on the floor. We also give our predictions for the College Football Playoff and who we think will be playing for a title when we return from the break. Shaquille O’Neal gets our Big Shot of the Week for FILLING a gym with gifts for Atlanta kids in need. And we round it out with a hilarious Christmas-themed edition of Black Crime or White Crime. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

After the Chiefs lost on one of the penalties of the season, Rob and Rob talk about the penalties in pro sports that bother us. Plus, how long can Monty Williams hang on in Detroit after losing NINETEEN games in a row in Detroit? And after Shohei Ohtani signed with the Dodgers, we discuss the biggest trades and signings that our teams have ever made. Jenners was in Miami when the Shaq trade went down, and Rob says Shaq and others were trying to recruit him to the Heat and chose not to go! Finally, what thing have you never been able to get into that other people love? And adversely what thing do you love that other people don't get. New shows every Tuesday and Friday!

Rob was in the building in Vegas as the Lakers won the NBA in-season tournament and AD was a BEAST in the win. Rob also informs us that the Lakers plan to hang a banner for the In-Season Tournament and we CANNOT believe it! We’re also stoked to see Bronny finally hit the court with some confidence after a scary situation with his heart, and Rob has an earnest conversation about Zion Williamson’s weight and how it can affect his health down the line after seeing him up close in Vegas. Tyrese Haliburton can also name all the players drafted ahead of him and so can Robert Horry! Plus Rob doesn’t agree with the Shohei Ohtani contract deferment, largely because he would NEVER do it. We give out a really cool Big Shot of the Week, and close out the show with a funny round of “Loaded Questions” – which include Rob’s favorite breakfast, why Rob hates cleaning bathrooms, everyone’s porn name, and jumping wolf spiders.

Odds on Draymond’s next NBA altercation in the league, and we bet heavy on front runners Dillon Brooks and Pat Bev. And speaking of Pat Bev, we talk about the video of his “biggest fan” who had every one of his jerseys, and get Rob to talk about some of his biggest super fans over the years. Plus Rob is asked why he’s so big on Mikal Bridges, and Rob says it’s because Mikal reminds him of the work ethic that he had back in the day. Jenners also brings in the Crime of the Week, where a woman is on the run after stealing a van filled with 10,000 Krispey Kreme Donuts. Rob also talks about how much he flopped back in the day, how much Vlade Divac flopped in his day, and Rob likes the idea of trying to cut that out of the game.  Plus a huge debate about what current players belong in the Hall of Fame, to the point where B-Dog wants the throw the entire topic out!
