Podcast appearances and mentions of Kermit Washington

Hour 2 of the Killer B's with Joel Blank and Jeremy Branham included... The takeaways from the Rockets loss against the Lakers  Who would you want the Rockets to face off with in the playoffs?  The guys remember Kermit Washington punching Rudy Tomjanovich during in on court fight.  Is this the greatest season in Cougar's Basketball History? 

Pete Newell was one of the greatest coaches of all time. In the summer of 1976, he took time to help Kermit Washington improve his low post skills. That became the start of his Big Man Camp that he ran for nearly 30 years. Every summer some of the greatest players in the NBA took time to learn from Pete Newell; players like Shaquille O'Neal, Hakeem Olajuwon, Scottie Pippen, Charles Oakley, and Chris Mullin were only some of the players that went through the camp.CREDITSRick Loayza: Head researcher, writer, and voiceJacob Loayza: Editor, producer, and publisher MUSIC"Take Care" by Julian Avila"Horizons" by Roa SPORTS HISTORY NETWORKsportshistorynetwork.comsportshistorynetwork.com/podcasts/basketball-history-101/ FACEBOOKm.facebook.com/Basketball-History-101-103801581493027/ BUSINESS CONTACTbballhistory101@gmail.com

Quella del 9 dicembre 1977 a Los Angeles, più precisamente allo storico Forum di Inglewood, è una serata come un'altra di Regular Season. O meglio, dovrebbe esserlo, prima che la partita tra Rockets e Lakers si trasformi in un tragico turning point per la storia dell'NBA. Prima che un pugno, anzi Il Pugno, conosciuto da tutti come “The Punch”, tirato da Kermit Washington a Rudy Tomjanovich scriva una delle pagine più drammatiche della storia dello sport americano. “Non dimenticherò mai quel rumore. Un colpo sordo, come quello di un melone che viene scaraventato contro l'asfalto”.

This week, the guys read and review the 500-page tome "The Breaks of the Game," the classic sports journalism account of the demise of the Portland Trailblazers team following their 1977 championship title. Bill Walton hurts his feet, Kermit Washington throws a punch, and Philip tells a long Pacific Northwest-themed joke. It's truly rhizomatic!

We discuss Kermit Washington’s infamous punch that severely injured Rudy Tomjanovich in 1977 and the NBA’s fighting culture of the time in the latest edition of Over and Back’s Basketball Mysteries of the 1970s. We look at the evolution of the NBA from a rough-and-tumble game with lots of fouling and physical play in the 1950s into more of a finesse game, how early black players with often pigeonholed into limited enforcer-type roles, how fighting was often glamorized in the lower-profile ABA but demonized in the late 1970s NBA, how the racial dynamics involved affected fans’ views of fighting, famous stories of ABA and NBA fights (including fights involving Mel Daniels, Willis Reed, John Brisker, Cliff Hagan, Warren Jabali, and Wendell Ladner), an infamous Sports Illustrated profile (http://www.si.com/vault/1977/10/31/626402/nobody-but-nobody-is-going-to-hurt-my-teammates) just weeks before The Fight looking at NBA enforcers (featuring Washington, Maurice Lucas, Calvin Murphy, Dennis Awtrey, Bob Lanier and Darryl Dawkins), how Washington’s punch of Tomjanovich was portrayed in the media and became a national story, how race informed the response and possible punishment in that case, how The Punch hung over the heads of everyone involved for many years afterward.

Our latest episode discusses David Halberstam’s seminal book “The Breaks of The Game” documenting the world of the NBA and specifically Bill Walton, Dr. Jack Ramsay, Maurice Lucas and the rest of the 1970s Portland Trail Blazers. Taking a break from their Top 50 project, Jason Mann and Rich Kraetsch are joined by basketball historian Curtis Harris (@ProHoopsHistory) and James (@NBAInjuryR3port) of the NBA Injury Report podcast. They talk about the changing power dynamics between players and management, how NBA quickly shifted from majority white to majority black league, the changing economics of the league and the struggles at the time, and how the changes within the league reflected a changing American society. They discuss the key personalities in the book, including Walton’s rise to stardom and downfall because of injuries, the intensity and stubbornness of Ramsay, the boundary-pushing and legendary toughness of Maurice Lucas, Kermit Washington’s incredible work ethic and how he was unfairly tarnished by “The Punch” on Rudy Tomjanovich, and Billy Ray Bates out-of-nowhere rise to become a brief NBA sensation, LaRue Martin, Mychal Thompson, Moses Malone, Marvin Barnes, and many more players. Also discussed are Halberstam’s writing and reporting style, his sometimes unfortunate portrayals of race, his deep nostalgia for NBA before bigger money came into play, his views on expansion, plus the history of the players union and the NBA on television. There’s a lot of great discussion packed in here, so be sure to check it out. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
