    Big Shot Bob – Ep 257 – That’s A Lot of Feed For Your Horses

    The NBA Playoffs are delivering chaos, history, and heartbreak — and Big Shot Bob Robert Horry, host Rob Jenners, and B-Dog Brandon Harper are breaking it ALL down on Episode 257 of the Big Shot Bob Podcast! The Orlando Magic are one win away from completing one of the most stunning upsets in NBA postseason history — knocking off the #1 seed Detroit Pistons as an 8-seed. What's gone wrong for Cade Cunningham and the Pistons, and can they save their season on home floor? Robert Horry knows something about coming back from 3-1 deficits — he lived it with the 1995 Houston Rockets.   The OKC Thunder close out the Phoenix Suns in a clean sweep, looking like the most complete team in the West. With SGA dropping 31 in the clincher and a bench that could start anywhere in the league, is anyone actually beating these guys? Then it's the Denver Nuggets fighting to stay alive against Minnesota — Joker posts a 27/16/12, Aaron Gordon goes OFF for 43 off the bench in Game 4, but the Timberwolves are healthy and hungry. Can Denver find a way? The guys debate coaching, defense, and whether the NBA owes us a Wemby vs. Jokic matchup.   In the East, the New York Knicks celebrate a Game 4 win with some famous Magic City Wings — and Lou Will has thoughts. Will Jalen Johnson step up for Atlanta in a hostile MSG environment? Robert Horry shares his perspective on why playing on the road was actually easier for him. In Philly, Joel Embiid returns from appendix surgery and the Sixers still get blown out by 32. Is it finally time for the 76ers to move on? And the Toronto Raptors have breathed life into their series against Cleveland — is Rob Jenners' "shaky branch" take looking more solid?   Plus — Victor Wembanyama goes down with a frightening fall in Game 2, misses Game 3, then comes back in Game 4 to put up a stat line only matched by Hakeem Olajuwon. His numbers? A real life category: 25+ points, 10+ rebounds, and 7+ blocks. At 22 years old. The guys close out with this year's NBA Award Winners — including the unanimous Defensive Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year, Most Improved Player, and the MVP race between Shay, Joker, and Wemby. And they play this week's trivia game: Off the Court — surprising hobbies and hidden talents of NBA legends, from Calvin Murphy's national championship to Karl Malone's CDL license.   🏆 SUBSCRIBE for weekly NBA coverage, playoff breakdowns, and real talk from a 7-time champion.   00:00 – Intro: Big Shot Bob Ep. 257 & NBA Playoffs Are On01:00 – Robert Horry's 1995 Rockets Came Back From 3-1 Down to the Suns02:30 – Magic One Win Away From Eliminating #1 Seed Detroit Pistons04:00 – Orlando's Weird Offense vs. Detroit's Scoring Drought11:30 – OKC Thunder Sweep Phoenix Suns: SGA & The Most Complete Team in the West13:30 – Lakers vs. Rockets: LeBron's Buzzer-Beater & KD's Injury Update16:00 – Denver Nuggets Stave Off Elimination: Jokic's 27/16/12 Night17:00 – Can Denver Come Back?

    Big Shot Bob – Shoot Around Ep 130 – I’ve Got Five Beds

    Robert Horry (Big Shot Bob) is back for the Friday Shoot Around bonus episode, and he's got plenty to say about the NBA's end-of-season awards race! This week the MVP finalists are officially in — Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and Victor Wembanyama — and Big Shot Bob doesn't hesitate with his pick.   Plus, the crew debates whether Wembanyama could make history by winning both MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season (something only Michael Jordan has done), breaks down the Six Man of the Year and Most Improved Player finalists, and questions whether the NBA's Clutch Player of the Year award even means anything.   Then it's quiz time: can Robert Horry and Harper correctly name the top 15 best-selling NBA jerseys of the 2025–26 season? Cooper Flagg already cracking the top 10 as a rookie? Stephen Curry still at #1?! And to close things out, a fan question sparks one of the best debates of the season — Tracy McGrady, Penny Hardaway, or Grant Hill: who had the highest ceiling barring injury? Robert Horry actually played against all three and his live, on-the-spot answer might surprise you.   Topics Covered: NBA MVP finalists: Jokic, SGA & Wembanyama Can Wemby win MVP + DPOY in the same year? Six Man of the Year finalists Most Improved Player debate Clutch Player of the Year — a real award or just a participation trophy?

Horry recommends the Jerry West documentary on Prime and shares his relationship with West, praising his candid leadership. The hosts break down Charlotte’s win over Miami and debate the controversial play involving Bam, arguing it should have been reviewed and likely upgraded to a flagrant, while also discussing why Charlotte is a fun team to watch.   They cover Portland’s play-in win, highlighting Jrue Holiday’s leadership and Portland’s defense, then preview upcoming matchups including Warriors–Clippers, Magic–76ers (with Joel Embiid out after appendix surgery), and give series picks for Lakers–Rockets, Nuggets–Timberwolves, Knicks–Hawks, and Cavaliers–Raptors.

    Big Shot Bob – Shoot Around Ep 129 – They Call It Tyreek Hill

    In this week’s Shoot Around Bonus Show, Episode 129, the hosts discuss a fan question sparked by a joke about trading Giannis Antetokounmpo, focusing on whether the Cleveland Cavaliers could realistically assemble a blockbuster package involving Evan Mobley, future assets, and possibly Jared Allen to create a short-term “super team” with Donovan Mitchell, James Harden, LeBron James, and Giannis—while noting the likely lack of depth and long-term flexibility.   They answer a question about Craig Sager, reacting to a Kevin Garnett clip roasting Sager’s suit and sharing Rob’s personal story of crossing paths with Sager through Sager’s wife and an old college connection, emphasizing how widely loved Sager (and Ernie Johnson) were around the NBA. The episode also covers personalized license plates (including Rob’s former “Seven Rings” plate), a humorous Zoom court clip where a judge catches a woman lying about driving, and a headline about cocaine traces found in sharks near the Bahamas, prompting a debate about the scariest animal to face on cocaine.   00:00 Friday Show Kickoff 00:52 Giannis Trade Rumors 02:24 Why Cavs Deal Fails 04:51 Three Team Trade Talk 06:12 Craig Sager Memories 10:48 Vanity Plate Debate 15:30 Zoom Court Lie Busted 17:52 Cocaine Sharks Finale

They recap college hoops including UCLA women’s blowout of South Carolina, Michigan’s title run built via transfers, debate NIL money, portal movement, coach/player accountability, and discuss a Trump executive order proposal limiting transfers and eligibility.   The conversation shifts to the Lakers as Luka suffers a grade-2 left hamstring strain and AR an oblique strain, then covers standings, the 65-game awards rule, Giannis vs. the Bucks investigation, Jokic’s historic stat pace, WNBA’s Angel Reese trade to the Dream, anti-tanking lottery proposals, a “knockoff candies” game inspired by a stolen Kit Kat truck, and a Big Shot of the Week honoring Texas dads who bought a crossing guard a car.   00:00 Welcome to Episode 254 00:37 Why Rob Missed The Show 02:47 Tokyo Trip Highlights 04:23 College Hoops Recap 06:05 Big Ten Money And NIL 08:05 Mike Malone To UNC 10:42 Transfer Portal Rules Debate 13:33 Trump Order And NCAA Chaos 17:43 Viral Iran Soundbite 18:57 Lakers Injuries And Playoff Outlook 24:00 Stinky Booty Locker Room Talk 27:13 Standings And 65 Game Rule 29:37 Load Management Debate 30:07 Giannis Policy Fallout 34:54 Angel Reese to Atlanta 36:51 Kit Kat Heist Setup 37:35 Bulls Pride Night Controversy 41:16 Jokic Historic Stat Line 44:32 Anti Tanking Lottery Ideas 50:08 Big Shot Community Gift 51:31 Knockoff Candy Game 58:53 Show Wrap and Farewell

    Big Shot Bob – Shoot Around Ep 128 – You’re Making It Worse, Steve

    Robert Horry and the crew open Friday’s shootaround with a discussion of LA Sparks star Kelsey Plum launching a verified AI “digital twin” for real-time conversations, and debate what it says about modern social interaction and who from history they’d want to talk to via AI (including Thurgood Marshall), while also questioning whether they’d want a digital version of a deceased parent.   They pivot to a listener question about whether Joel Embiid deserves slack for early-career missed seasons, noting he’s played 91 games since winning MVP and arguing games still count because he was paid. The episode shifts to “dumbest fight” stories sparked by a wild Florida pickleball dispute, including Horry’s bar argument over an autograph and a college brawl after a spilled beer, before ending on Afroman’s police-raid saga, his defamation-court win, and his response through diss tracks and a patriotic tuxedo.   00:00 Friday Shoot Around Intro 00:51 Kelsey Plum AI Twin 02:49 Who Would You Talk To 05:35 Digital Afterlife Debate 06:44 Embiid Games Played Talk 09:53 Pickleball Fight Story 11:38 Dumb Fights Personal Tales 15:47 Quick Falcons Roster Aside 16:11 Afroman Courtroom Anthem 21:28 Wrap Up Reactions

    Episode 253 of the Big Shot Bob Podcast with Robert Horry, Rob Jenners, and Brandon Harper opens with ongoing internet issues and jokes about Horry’s connection. They discuss the Lakers’ recent run, Luka’s historic scoring stretch, and a rescinded technical tied to trash talk, which leads into Draymond Green responding on his podcast after Horry referenced him as an example of players talking to refs without getting teched; the hosts debate whether Draymond took the example personally and consider inviting him on.   They cover Cade Cunningham’s collapsed lung and what it means for Detroit’s postseason hopes, recap March Madness upsets and viral moments (including High Point’s win and Kevin Willard’s “fire my staff” joke), note Kevin Durant passing Michael Jordan on the all-time scoring list, run through NBA standings and worst transactions rankings, mention OKC’s planned “Continental Coliseum,” highlight Jimmy Darts’ charity story, and play a “Fake News” headline game sparked by a bizarre cornhole-related crime story.   00:00 Show Cold Open 00:28 Internet Chaos 03:15 Lakers Streak 04:28 Luka Tech Drama 07:07 Draymond Responds 09:21 Breaking It Down 16:15 Cade Injury Update 18:21 March Madness Highlights 24:42 KD Passes Jordan 25:08 Can KD Catch Kobe 27:32 Cornhole Murder Setup 30:33 Playoff Standings Rundown 32:45 Worst NBA Moves List 34:48 JSN Mega Extension 36:50 OKC Coliseum Talk 38:21 Big Shot Jimmy Darts 41:14 Fake News Game
