03/17 Hour 3: Best Stores That Don't Exist Anymore - 1:00 Calls On The Best Old School Stores - 15:00 Brian Keefe Joins The Junkies - 31:00

03/17 Full Show: Hour 1 - 1:00 Hour 2 - 43:00 Hour 3 - 1:27:00 Hour 4 - 2:08:00 The Sports Junkies break down the top storylines around the sports world. Today's guest was Brian Keefe.

Bilal Coulibaly scored 18 of his career-high 29 points in the fourth quarter and overtime as he nearly carried the Wizards to a comeback win. But they fell short in Orlando and suffered their 11th straight loss. Oh, and Brian Keefe added another late-game blunder to his resume. Greg breaks it all down. Enjoy!

On this episode of On The Ball with Ric Bucher, Ric digs into the fallout from Bam Adebayo's shocking 83-point explosion against the Washington Wizards — and explains why the number itself is far less important than how it happened.Ric argues that the game was less a historic masterpiece than a glaring example of how stat-chasing, context-free analysis, and modern NBA narratives can distort reality. From Dennis Rodman's rebounding legacy to David Robinson's 71-point scoring-title push, James Harden's foul hunting, and LeBron James' record-padding accusations, Ric connects Bam's 83 to a much bigger conversation: Have NBA fans become too obsessed with numbers and not obsessed enough with what they're actually watching?He also breaks down why context matters more than box scores, why comparing eras has become increasingly dishonest, why Michael Jordan's fundamentals and degree of difficulty still separate him from LeBron James, and why today's NBA discourse often values viral stats over real understanding.This is a sharp, provocative episode about NBA history, media narratives, stat inflation, and the danger of trusting numbers without using your eyes.

Bam Adebayo scored 83 points on the Wizards in the Miami Heat's 150-129 win on Tuesday. Adebayo also took 43 free throws to do so, which included his Heat teammates intentionally fouling the Wizards up by 30 with two minutes left in the game to get him past Kobe Bryant's 81-point record. And the worst part: Wizards coach Brian Keefe allowed it to happen. Greg breaks it all down. Enjoy!
