Decimocuarto programa dedicado a la temporada 1985-86 de la NBA en el que continuamos el repaso de la fase regular de todos los equipos. En este analizamos a los Philadelphia 76ers; tanto las expectativas como el desarrollo del curso, los movimientos en la plantilla, el ataque y la defensa, los jugadores, las estadísticas individuales y colectivas, y algunas curiosidades. Contamos cómo Charles Barkley se convirtió en esta campaña en el mejor jugador del equipo y una superestrella de la liga. Asimismo, el relevo en el banquillo (entraba Matt Guokas por Billy Cunningham). Moses Malone rindió bien, pero ya no era tan Bestia Parda. Maurice Cheeks era uno de los mejores bases de la NBA desde hace varios cursos. El Doctor J y Andrew Toney estaban de capa caída, uno por edad y otro por lesiones (además de que la franquicia lo trató fatal). Bobby Jones se despedía de la liga. Bob McAdoo reforzó la plantilla en el último tercio de la temporada. Ayudaron también el debutante Terry Catledge, Sedale Threatt y Clemon Johnson. Hablamos sobre todo lo anterior y mucho más. ------ Contacto y redes: - iVoox (Era baloncesto): https://www.ivoox.com/podcast-era-baloncesto_sq_f1687000_1.html - XLS con todos los audios: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1k9YiJkMkIMwONwX1onZZTBHBffYVtnlgT2oBebypG0A - Twitter: @erabaloncesto - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@erabaloncesto - Blog: https://erabaloncesto.home.blog - erabaloncesto@gmail.com ------ Sintonía: - Cornflowers (Dee Yan-Key): freemusicarchive.org/music/Dee_Yan-Key/Vacation_Days/01-Dee_Yan-Key-Cornflowers ------ Creado y presentado por José Manuel Gómez y Manuel Álvarez López.

Billy Cunningham is on the NBA's 75th Anniversary Team, yet he is rarely talked about as one of the great players in league history. His leaping ability earned him his nickname, The Kangaroo Kid. A rebounding machine, he once averaged 13 rebounds per game while playing alongside Wilt Chamberlain. Here is his story.CREDITSRick Loayza: Head researcher, writer, and voiceJacob Loayza: Editor, producer, and publisher MUSIC"50's Music" by Dar Golan"Horizons" by Roa SPORTS HISTORY NETWORKsportshistorynetwork.comsportshistorynetwork.com/podcasts/basketball-history-101/ FACEBOOKm.facebook.com/Basketball-History-101-103801581493027/ BUSINESS CONTACTbballhistory101@gmail.com

In the last episode, a missing NBA basketball player named Wally Jones had suddenly turned up at our house to visit my father, the owner and General Manager of the 76ers, who had made a trade for him to join the team. They had gone into my father's office to have a consultation and I had set myself up in the kitchen, which was nearby and had begun doing my homework. I was working on a psychology assignment where I had to describe two brushes with fear and how I eventually found safety. I had described the first one in the last episode, where my friend and I had unexpected run into a mass event where Martin Luther King had made an impromptu appearance on the front steps of a large church in Philadelphia. Now it was time to write about my second brush with fear. It had been quite different from the first because this one had brought me into a direct, face-to-face encounter with real danger and there was severe intensity to it. By way of background, I had inherited a beat-up sports car that had been handed down from my brother to my sister to me. It was a 1959 Austin-Healey Sprite, the famous “bug-eyed” model. Eddie Gottlieb, one of the founders of the NBA and a close family friend, had picked it up for my brother on one of his trips to Europe. It was brand-new, white as a cloud, and the incarnation of pure fun. My brother kept it in perfect condition and drove me everywhere in it. When he got married three years later, it went to my sister. My parents told her she could spruce it up, so Sybil had it painted jet-black with a red-and-white racing stripe down the back. She took off in it like a bat out of hell and drove it nonstop for the next three years. By her second year at Temple University, she had outgrown it. It was only a two-seater and didn't work for her anymore. So as soon as I got my license, it came to me. Now, they say that when a family's first baby drops its pacifier on the floor, the parents sanitize it in boiling water. With their second baby, if the pacifier falls on the floor, they rinse it off with hot water. And with the third baby, if the pacifier falls on the floor, they just let the dog lick it. By the time I got the Sprite, it had clearly been to the dogs. But I loved it. It had a manual four-speed stick shift. I had been driving it for about two weeks and hadn't quite gotten the hang of it yet, but I was getting there. One sunny afternoon, as I was out driving, I pulled into the parking lot behind some stores. I was trying to turn around but had trouble getting it into reverse and was stuck, just sitting there. All of a sudden, a big car - an older Buick - backed up and smashed right into me. The jolt of the accident and the sound of shattering glass shook me to the core. I got out to take a look. The front-left side was mangled and bent, and the headlight was smashed. I looked at the dark-green Buick, which was the size of a tank, and it didn't even have a scratch. Then the car door opened, and my worst nightmare got out—a tough-looking, lanky hoodlum with a lit cigarette in his mouth and a mean snarl on his face. He didn't really look all that human. “What da fucksa matter with you, dude?” he growled furiously. As he walked toward me, I thought he was about to hit me. The parking lot was behind a place called Kelley's Bar, which was one of the seedier establishments in the township. It was about four-thirty in the afternoon and the guy smelled like he'd been drinking for hours. I was too shocked and scared to say anything, so I just stood there staring at him. He must have concluded that I was no threat, and he relaxed a little. “Tough shit, kid,” was the next pearl of wisdom that came out of his mouth. “Too bad you hit me. Now, what do you want to do about it?” “I hit you?” I asked, finding enough strength to speak. “I didn't hit you. I couldn't even get the car into reverse. I was just sitting there. You backed into me.” The hoodlum chuckled, took a leisurely drag from his cigarette, and blew out a long stream of liquor-laced, grey smoke into my face. “You know that, and I know that,” he said. “But we're the only ones who do. You see anybody else here? No. It's just me and you. So, the truth is gonna be what I say it is. And when we go in front of the judge, the truth is that you hit me. You got that, asshole?” He had a mean smile on his hard face, and it was clear that he was starting to enjoy himself. The cruelty of it took my panic to a whole new level. Like a stunned rabbit in the grip of a python, I could feel the iron coils tightening around me. I don't remember how I did it, but I got him to write his name and phone number down on a piece of paper. I'm pretty sure it was on the back of a racing form. There was a horse track about ten miles away. I got back into the Sprite and drove home. It still moved, but it was a shaky mess as it rattled along. I backed into the garage, so my father could see the damage. I shut the engine off, and to my surprise, I burst into tears. I cried like I was six instead of sixteen. I couldn't believe I could still fall apart that easily. I thought I was much more grown-up than that. It didn't really matter. I knew my back was against the wall and the situation was hopeless. About an hour later, when my father came home from work, I was sitting at the kitchen table waiting for him. I did my best to keep it together as I told him what had happened. We went right out into the garage to take a look. As we both stared at the crumpled side of the car and the smashed headlight, I started giving him the details. I was fine until I got to the part when the guy said he was going to make me lie to the judge in court. At that point, I got choked up. I tried to go on, but my father simply held up his right hand, signaling me to stop talking. In his stillness, he looked like a mighty Indian chief who had stopped time. “Did you, uh, happen to get any information from this guy?” he asked quietly. “You know what I mean? His name, his phone number? Anything like that?” His tone was completely calm and ordinary, and it surprised me. Instead of being rattled by this horrible situation, he sounded like we were sitting at a casual lunch and he was asking me to pass him the salt. It was nothing to him, which did something to me. “Sure,” I responded and pulled the crumpled racing form out of my pocket. “Give it to me,” he said simply and extended his right hand. There was no emotion in his voice and no expression on his face, but there was also no question about what was going on. I was now face to face with the enormous, unmistakable power that was firmly and forever on my side. Nothing was going to hurt me. I put the paper in his hand, and as soon as he took it, the weight of the world was lifted off my shoulders and I could breathe again. He looked at the information for a long moment. “OK,” he said. “Here's what's gonna happen. You're just going to take the car over to a place called Frese and Fishers in town, and they'll handle it. Frese and Fishers.” I tried to concentrate and remember the name, but it flew right out of my mind. “You know what? Don't worry about it,” he said, sensing I was struggling. “Just call my office tomorrow morning, and Bernadette will take care of the whole thing.” He put his hand on my shoulder and held it there, as steady as a mountain and as reassuring as the dawn. “OK?” he asked me, looking in my eyes for the all-clear. I nodded to him. “OK,” he said with finality, indicating that the episode was over. “Enough already!” he exclaimed. “Come on. Let's go back inside.” We left the garage. He put his arm around my shoulder, and with synchronized steps, we walked back to the house. As we approached the kitchen window, I could see my mother through the glass, working at the sink. She lifted her head, and as a Madonna Amongst the Dishes, with a subtle Mona Lisa smile, she gazed sublimely at the sight of her youngest child, walking along the path under the shelter and protection of his father. Once we were inside and he started down the hall to his office, he called back to me. “Don't worry about this, Duv. It's no big deal.” And it wasn't. I called his secretary in the morning, and she told me exactly what to do. She had already set up the appointment, and the body shop treated me royally. Within another day, the car was fine, and I was driving it as though nothing had ever happened. And I never heard another word about it again. I started making some notes for the essay. I realized that in my extreme fear, the situation seemed completely hopeless. It had never occurred to me that my father might have been able to help. In fact, I forgot I even had a father. But in truth, he was one of the most powerful attorneys in the city, his protégé was the President Judge of the Philadelphia Court System and his partner was the Police Commissioner of Cheltenham Township. So, in reality, that half-drunk degenerate who had threatened me in the bar's parking lot, had no power over me at all. But try explaining that to sheer terror. The panic we feel when we encounter darkness makes us forget that there is such a thing as light. But for me, everything changed the instant my father took that nicotine-stained racing form out of my hand. Light had dispelled darkness and I realized I was safe again. It was as simple as that. Suddenly the door to my father's office opened, and Wally Jones stepped out, with my father right behind him. I closed my notebook and followed them into the hall but hung back and watched. I don't think they even noticed me. They had only known each other for an hour, but you could've sworn they were old friends. Wally still looked dirty and disheveled, but he certainly didn't look like a bum anymore. My father walked him to the opened door and put his arm around his shoulder. “Now, this is all going to be OK, Wally. I promise you we can handle it. It's time to put the whole thing behind you.” “I'll do that, Mr. Richman,” Wally said. “I will.” “Call me first thing Monday morning,” my father said. “And don't forget, the important thing now is to get back in the game and start working on your jump shot. You gotta get that rust off.” They both chuckled. Wally walked out to his car, and my father turned to me, with the smile of a job well done. I'd seen that look on his face a million times. *** A few days later, the 76ers announced that Wally Jones had come back to Philly and had joined the team. Amazingly, all his legal problems were quickly resolved, and the whole city was buzzing with anticipation. When he met the reporters after his first practice, he said, “I think my problems are more mental than physical, and Mr. Richman already has helped me see some sunshine for the first time in a long while. I have a little peace of mind for the first time in three years, and I want a chance to show the world what I can do.” Soon, he would do just that. And along with the recent signing of Billy Cunningham, my father's dream team was complete. Billy, the great star from the University of North Carolina, was his number-one draft pick. He and my father had grown quite fond of each other, but contractually, they had hit a snag. My father had offered Billy $12,000 for the year. But Billy wanted $12,500 and was holding out. Neither one would budge. Finally, right before the season was about to begin, my father threw in the towel and gave Billy the extra five hundred. Now everything was in place, and we were ready to begin the new season. And our quest for destiny. So, this story pretty much speaks for itself. I guess the idea is that when times get tough and the threatening clouds of fear encompass our vison and darken our lives, even though it may be hard to see the cloud's silver lining, it's still there. Sometimes all we can do is just remember the existence of light until we can see it again. And sometimes, all we have to do is ask. Well, that's the end of this episode. As always, keep your eyes, mind and heart opened and let's get together in the next one.

North Carolina picked up their first true road win of the season thanks in large part to Armando Bacot's ealier-than-expected return to the lineup and a career day (offensively and defensively) from D'Marco Dunn. Bacot recorded a first half double-double and is now one away from tying Billy Cunningham for the UNC career record. Bacot is also two or three games away from breaking Tyler Hansbrough's career UNC rebounding record. RJ Davis continues his recent strong shooting – having now made 50% of this threes (17-34) in the past six games, propelling him to a career high 36.8% from deep this season. Caleb Love didn't shoot well, but had five (5!) steals against Louisville. Pete Nance was once again out so Puff Johnson started in his stead. Host Isaac Schade presents his Four Corners Recap and Schadey Stat of the Game as well as discussing the UNC Women's team big win over NC State on Sunday.

Locked On Tar Heels - Daily Podcast On North Carolina Tar Heels Football & Basketball
It's the 12th week of the 2022-23 North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball roster summer preview series. We have gone through the freshmen (Seth Trimble, Jalen Washington, Tyler Nickel, Will Shaver), the transfer (Pete Nance), the sophomores (D'Marco Dunn, Dontrez Styles), and the juniors (Puff Johnson, RJ Davis, Caleb Love). Last week we started the seniors with Justin McKoy. Next up is Armando Bacot a 6'11", 235-pound center from Richmond, Virginia.Bacot had strong and steady showings in his first two seasons as a Tar Heel, but he found an entirely new level in 2021-22. As a junior, Bacot demolished Carolina's single season rebounding and double-double records.Previously, Brice Johnson was the only Tar Heel to grab 400-plus rebounds in a single season. Bacot finished with 511. That total gives him 1,001 rebounds in his career, just the tenth UNC player to ever do so. Tyler Hansbrough holds the all-timer career Carolina record at 1,219, a record well within Bacot's reach this season.It was also Johnson that Bacot unseated in taking the Carolina single-season double-double record. Johnson had 23 in 2015-16; Bacot finished with 31 last season. That total tied David Robinson's NCAA all-time single-season mark. With 49 career double-doubles, Bacot should easily become the all-time leader, passing Billy Cunningham's 60.Looking ahead, Bacot will once again be a starter alongside the remaining other three of the Iron Five – Caleb Love, RJ Davis, and Leaky Black. Pete Nance projects to be the fifth starter, stepping in for Manek.When Bacot needs to be spelled, I expect Nance to shift over to the five and Puff Johnson to come in as the four. There are certainly other combinations that Coach Hubert Davis will employ, but that should be the predominant substitution pattern for Bacot.Host Isaac Schade and Coach Pac Kilby take you through Bacot's game as well as expectations for the upcoming season.Follow the show: Locked On Tar Heels (YouTube) Locked On Tar Heels (LinkTree) Locked On Tar Heels (Twitter) Locked On Tar Heels (Instagram) Isaac Schade (Twitter) Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInLinkedIn jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster.

On the latest episode of the Rex Chapman Show with Josh Hopkins, the guys are joined by Naismith Hall of Famer and former Maryland Coach Gary Williams. It's been 20 years since the 2002 National Championship, and looking back on his success on the sidelines, the guys ask Gary about what it took for him to reach that pinnacle, with stories along the way. 11:00 - Following the passing of Bill Russell, Gary touches on what made him special both on and off the court. 13:10 - Gary will always remember the impact Bill Russell made in advancing civil rights, and defending Muhammad Ali when everyone else wanted the champ in jail. 16:45 - Gary recalls the first time he spoke to Bill Russell as a "young man", and the piece of rebounding advice that to this day he never forgot. 18:30 - When did Gary realize he was going to be a basketball lifer? Even when Billy Cunningham may have put an end to his dreams of being an NBA player, there was always coaching. 24:30 - Rex remembers moving to DC to play with the Bullets and moving in next door to Gary Williams. At the time, Gary said the only job he would have left Ohio State was to return to his alma mater, even with the probation. 29:30 - A decade later, Gary had Maryland in back to back Final Fours, including the 2002 National Championship. What was it about building those teams that made an NCAA Title possible? 36:00 - Gary describes Steve Francis arriving on campus. How soon from when he got there, did Gary realize how special he was? 40:30 - While recruiting Kevin Durant, there was another player that caught Gary Williams' attention. What was it about Greivis Vasquez that made him become one of the best Maryland players of all time? 42:00 - There was no one more impactful for Maryland than Juan Dixon. Gary talks about the fight and passion he played with in games, and in practice, that laid the foundation for the National Championship run. 48:30 - Gary looks back on Mike Krzyzewski's career and says there is no Duke program without his accomplishments. 52:00 - How Name, Image and Likeness has changed the landscape of college athletics, and Gary can recall 35 years ago trying to make inroads to allow more incentive for players to play for the NCAA. 57:00 - While he's retired, Gary is still thinking about how the game has evolved, and some changes he'd like to curb to see more fundamentals and less 3-pointers.

Twenty years ago, when Maryland beat Indiana for the National Championship, it was one of the happiest scenes in the history of college basketball. Maryland fans had been through a lot, including sanctions after the departure of Bob Wade, which meant no TV, no national presence. For decades, Maryland was considered the poor cousin to ACC heavyweights Duke and North Carolina, occasionally NC State or Wake Forest. Gary Williams played at Maryland, and shares a great story about facing Billy Cunningham and Carolina. Lesley got to cover Gary at all three of his major stops - at Boston College when BC won the Big East in 1983, at Ohio State in the Big Ten, and at Maryland, where he returned to Cole Field House and the ACC. He called Maryland's win over Duke at home in 2002, "the greatest victory ever at Cole Field House" - and this from a guy who saw, in person, one of the most important games in history, when Texas Western, with five black starters, beat Kentucky in College Park for the Championship in 1966. It's Gary's passion for all things Terrapin that's made him so popular, and why the 2002 team will be celebrated all year.
