Big Shot Bob Pod with Robert Horry

We briefly open the show by recapping this week’s feud with Gilbert Arenas, who we collectively have nothing but love for, so Rob apologizes if his “idiot” comment upset him. Plus Rob and B-Dog are frustrated that Team USA didn’t even medal at the FIBA World Cup and how immediately after we had LeBron, KD, Steph and a bunch of other guys step up to lead the Olympic team. And no matter how well Dillon Brooks played on the international stage he still can’t dodge the jokes about being a villain. We also get Rob’s take on the NBA’s load management plan for the coming season, and we take bets on what teams will get fined first for resting players in national games. And with the news that Chris Paul might be starting in Golden State, and Anthony Davis wanting to play more power forward, reinforces Rob’s idea that the NBA is becoming position-less basketball. Rob also denounces his allegiance to the University of Alabama because the University has not recruited his son Christian and he feels he deserves it as a legacy. We also try to digest the Aaron Rodgers injury four snaps into the season, which is heartbreaking, and we swing it back with an inspiring Big Shot of the Week. And in honor of Jenners getting cooked by Gilbert Arenas this week, our game is called “Starter Pack”.

Rob opens the Shoot Around this week talking about the Atlanta Braves, as he did not realize until just recently how good that team really is. We also ask Rob who his favorite player was when he was growing up, and he says Magic Johnson, and recalls getting the opportunity to play against him. We also put on our tin foil hats for the LeBron in Saudi Arabia, but Rob just thinks he’s catching a bag by helping with that camp, not entertaining offers for a rival NBA. Shedeur Sanders is ready to break the bank with NIL money which fires us into a huge discussion about conference realignment in college football. Plus Rob weighs in on the Dillon Brooks ejection, Kanye West getting banned in Venice for getting dirty on a tour boat, the insane diarrhea incident aboard an Atlanta flight this week, and hilarious audio of Washington deputies barking like dogs to try and get some car theft suspects to surrender.

We open the show this week with a recap of the WILD College Football weekend – especially after Rob’s good friend Dabo Swinney lost big to Duke! Plus Deion Sanders took 1-11 Buffalo on the road to knock off TCU, and we all want to see if we can do that again against another team. Rob also weighs in on Team USA’s loss to Lithuania and how he doesn’t think it will really affect them down the line, and how most of these guys likely won’t see the Olympic team next summer. Rob spent a week in China for the NBA and talks about some of the outreach he gets to do on the league’s behalf, even though he doesn’t do much in the way of sightseeing anymore. We also dive in on the Eric Lewis “retirement” announcement this week after the big burner phone investigation, and Rob doesn’t understand why these NBA refs don’t have thicker skin. Congrats go out to Jeanie Buss after she married Jay Mohr over the weekend, which leads Rob to take a probe into B-Dog’s dating life. Plus a shoutout to the Nebraska women’s volleyball team, a dope Big Shot of the Week – and we close the show with a round of Buy or Sell – as we all buy or sell things like Aaron Rodgers on the NY Jets, Lionel Messi, Jake Paul’s shot at a heavyweight title, FSU in the College Football playoff, Shaq the rapper and much more!

We open our bonus show this week by talking about Nikola Jokic dancing at Serbian night club and whether or not we like to dance at a club – erupting a HUGE debate about the Electric Slide! Plus Gorilla Nems wrote some music for the New York Knicks, as the team has used “Bing Bong” all season long after hitting threes, and he is NOT happy with the Knicks for hooking him up with decent seats for the games. And does the USC fan who bought tickets behind the new press box with only 2% field view have the worst seats ever in college football? We all discuss the worst seats we’ve ever had, and a huge debate about who’s the better scorer, Kevin Durant or Carmello Anthony. Aliens in Peru also fire up a conversation about what athletes are so good we believe they’re aliens, and our favorite seasonal fast food items!

As we kick off Labor Day Weekend, we get a full recap of Rob’s Birthday party – where he claims he did about 30 shots and no one believes him! Rob also talks about Brandon Ingram’s frustration with Team USA and sparks a great conversation about how stars handle not getting minutes or finding a groove. Plus Noah Lyles brought down the fury of the sports world with his take about “World Champions” in the NBA, and the debate rages on this show much like it has on other shows. We give an early Big Shot of the Week to the young man who hit the walk off HR at the Little League World Series – and everyone hopes he goes on to outshine that one huge moment. And we try to find the motive behind Giannis saying he might not sign in Milwaukee, and take a look at Kobe statue night in LA, which will be the most expensive ticket of the season… and who still deserves a statue outside of Crypto? And with College Football kicking off we put Rob and B-Dog to the test on obscure college mascots!

Steph Curry said he was the best point guard ever this week, so we open the show with Rob’s opinion that he is NOT because Isiah Thomas has to be in that conversation simply from a defensive perspective. We also put on our tin foil hats for the Heat-Blazers match-up that the NBA scheduled for two days after the trade deadline, which we all agree is just a very smart marketing move. Stan Van Gundy also brings a great debate to the show by saying he’s rather have Dwight Howard’s career over that of Anthony Davis, and Rob and B-Dog both side with Stan in picking Dwight over AD. Plus people who can’t get cancelled, a look at the career of Lou Williams and whether the Sixth Man of the Year award should be named for him, and TV shows we love that people are missing out on.

We open this show with Rob in the thick of Tropical Storm Hillary and the earthquake that shook him from his birthday hangover. And while talking about parties, the rumors about Joel Embiid’s wedding guests heat up the conversation about his future in Philly – but Rob feels like he’s not going anywhere. We’re also joined by legendary NBA photographer Andy Bernstein, who has chronicled SO many of the league’s most iconic moments. Andy shares stories about how he got started in sports photography, being clobbered by Shaq during the Western Conference Finals, capturing that candid Jordan moment when he was crying over the Larry O’Brien trophy, and some of the best moments he has been able to capture in NBA history. Plus, after Giannis said he’d play for Saudi Arabia for the right amount of money, we wonder if they would even contemplate starting a rival NBA. And if Marcus Jordan and Larsa Pippen get married, Larsa would become Michael Jordan’s DAUGHTER-IN-LAW, which blows our minds when thinking about the family dynamic. Our Big Shot of the Week goes to the Florida lifeguards who formed a human chain to save a swimmer, and another hilarious round of Shot Clock!

We open the show this week by discussing Rob's relationship with Spurs fans - and Rob jokes that they saw him as a Laker spy and only celebrated him for that one big shot in the Finals. Rob doesn't really believe that Lonzo Ball's shoes were the root cause of his injury, but sometimes guys are just doomed with injuries that they can't overcome. He also jokes that in his day in the NBA, you NEVER wore another guy's shoes. We also discuss what moments in sports would have broken the Internet before social media was such a big thing - and moments that come up are Magic's announcement, Malice in the Palace, and Mike Tyson biting Evander's ear! Rob also recaps getting dragged to the Taylor Swift concert and not running into a single celebrity. And in light of the Wander Franco story, listeners want to know if Rob ever got in trouble for girls DMing him on social media. Plus with Peyton Manning teaching a class at Tennessee we discuss the classes we think we could teach and the ones we wish were taught during our school days.
