Podcast appearances and mentions of Kyle Macy

Noveno 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 Chicago Bulls; 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. Esta campaña está condicionada por la lesión de Michael Jordan. Debido a lo anterior, el nuevo entrenador, Stan Albeck, se encontró con una situación complicada en el final de la temporada y no supo resolverla bien. La lesión de la superestrella tuvo un impacto considerable y no solamente en lo deportivo. Hubo problemas con los otros dos jugadores más importantes del equipo, Orlando Woolridge y Quintin Dailey. Llegó a la plantilla un mito como George Gervin. El rookie Charles Oakley se adaptó perfectamente al equipo y tuvo un buen rendimiento. Hubo otros fichajes (John Paxson, Kyle Macy y Gene Banks) que se unieron a los jugadores que continuaban (Dave Corzine, Sidney Green, Jawann Oldham y otros). Jerry Krause ya se estaba moviendo desde el puesto de mánager general para crear el equipo campeón alrededor de Jordan y en el camino creándose unos cuantos enemigos. Incluso se dio el primer acercamiento de Phil Jackson a la franquicia. 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.

Kyle Macy by Gary Fogle

Vigesimocuarto programa dedicado a la temporada 1984-85 de la NBA en el que continuamos el repaso de la fase regular. Analizamos a los Phoenix Suns; tanto sus expectativas como el desarrollo del curso, los movimientos en la plantilla, su ataque y defensa, los jugadores, las estadísticas individuales y colectivas, y algunas curiosidades. La lesión de Walter Davis, que le permitió disputar únicamente 23 encuentros y no en las mejores condiciones, impidió que el equipo entrenado por John MacLeod pudiera rendir como se esperaba. También hubo problemas contractuales y deportivos con Maurice Lucas. Larry Nance y Alvan Adams destacaron; Kyle Macy y James Edwards ayudaron; y hubo buenos debuts en la liga de Michael Holton y Jay Humphries. Hablamos sobre todo lo anterior y 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 - 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.

Cuadragésimo primer programa dedicado a la temporada 1983-84 de la NBA en el que continuamos el repaso de los playoffs con la final del Oeste disputada entre Los Angeles Lakers y Phoenix Suns. Analizamos y comparamos a equipos, jugadores, banquillos y entrenadores; revisamos uno a uno los partidos y sacamos conclusiones de la eliminatoria. Al fin hubo un rival de la conferencia Oeste que se lo puso difícil a los Lakers en este año. Tras las dos primeras victorias claras para Los Angeles, el equipo de Phoenix plantó cara en los cuatro siguientes encuentros y no forzaron el séptimo por poco. Magic y Kareem tuvieron un rendimiento portentoso, como casi siempre, y estuvieron bien acompañados por Michael Cooper, Bob McAdoo, James Worthy, Kurt Rambis, Byron Scott, Jamaal Wilkes y Mike McGee. Por parte de los Suns, tanto Larry Nance como Walter Barry disputaron algunos partidos sobresalientes y fueron los mejores de su equipo junto con Maurice Lucas; también aportaron Kyle Macy, James Edwards, Alvan Adams, Charles Pittman y Paul Westphal, este último disputando sus partidos finales en la liga. Fue una eliminatoria en la que dominaron los ataques a las defensas. ------ Análisis de la temporada regular 83-84 de Lakers: https://go.ivoox.com/rf/89592844 Análisis de la temporada regular 83-84 de Suns: https://go.ivoox.com/rf/88045559 ------ Contenido: - 00:00:00 Presentación. - 00:01:15 Análisis previo. - 01:01:36 Primer partido. - 01:24:55 Segundo partido. - 01:49:48 Tercer partido. - 02:30:19 Cuarto partido. - 02:51:51 Quinto partido. - 03:20:54 Sexto partido. - 03:55:02 Conclusiones. - 04:49:55 Cierre (digresiones y comentarios de los oyentes). ------ 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/edit?usp=sharing - Twitter: @erabaloncesto - Blog: https://erabaloncesto.home.blog - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFi8v4YXzNGdL3A0pRm5cRQ - erabaloncesto@gmail.com ------ Sintonía: - Cornflowers (Dee Yan-Key): freemusicarchive.org/music/Dee_Yan-Key/Vacation_Days/01-Dee_Yan-Key-Cornflowers ------ Presentado y creado por José Manuel Gómez y Manuel Álvarez López.

Comparamos a equipos, jugadores, banquillos y entrenadores; revisamos uno a uno los partidos y sacamos conclusiones de la eliminatoria.

Vigesimoprimer programa dedicado a la temporada 1983-84 de la NBA en el que continuamos con el repaso de la fase regular. Analizamos a los Phoenix Suns (expectativas y desarrollo del curso, movimientos en la plantilla, ataque y defensa, jugadores, estadísticas, curiosidades, etc.); hablamos asimismo sobre el bajón del equipo debido a la salida de Dennis Johnson (cuyo valor de mercado era nulo y por eso se traspasó casi a pelo por Rick Robey), la clase de Walter Davis (de nuevo All-Star), la progresión de Larry Nance, el último curso en la liga de Paul Westphal, el cardado de John MacLeod, el liderazgo de Maurice Lucas, la anotación (y poco más) de James Edwards, el buen rendimiento de Rod Foster (segunda ronda del draft), la adaptación al papel de suplente de Alvan Adams, la no progresión de Kyle Macy, y otros temas. ------ Contenido: - 00:00:00 Presentación. - 00:01:10 Phoenix Suns. - 01:45:55 Cierre (digresiones y comentarios de los oyentes). ------ 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/edit?usp=sharing - Twitter: @erabaloncesto - Blog: https://erabaloncesto.home.blog - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFi8v4YXzNGdL3A0pRm5cRQ - erabaloncesto@gmail.com ------ Sintonía: - Cornflowers (Dee Yan-Key): freemusicarchive.org/music/Dee_Yan-Key/Vacation_Days/01-Dee_Yan-Key-Cornflowers ------ Presentado y creado por José Manuel Gómez y Manuel Álvarez López.

In the University of Kentucky's illustrious basketball history, Kyle Macy inherits a prominent place – and spawned a generation of boys named Kyle in Kentucky.Indiana's Mr. Basketball in 1975 while playing for his father Bob at Peru High, the 6-3 point guard was a three-year starter for the Wildcats after spending his freshman season at Purdue.Macy helped the Wildcats capture the 1978 national title, breaking a 20-year drought that likely felt like a century-long drought to Big Blue Nation.When Macy's collegiate career closed in 1980, he had a resume to rival any Wildcat: three All-American nods, an SEC Player of the Year award, and two SEC titles in addition to the 1978 national title. He left UK as the program's all-time leader in assists and 12th on the Cats' all-time scoring list.A first-round draft pick of the Phoenix Suns in 1979, Macy played seven seasons in the NBA. He was inducted into the University of Kentucky Athletics Hall of Fame in 2005 and the Wildcats retired his #4 jersey in 1997.The Stories Page - https://19nine.com/blogs/newsOur other Podcasts - https://19nine.com/blogs/news/19nine-podcastsLeave us a Review!APPLE PODCASTSSPOTIFY19Nine's YouTube ChannelWatch video interviews (Aaron's YouTube)FOLLOW!19Nine Instagram19Nine Twitter19nine | Celebrating Hardwood History 19nine knows college basketball.

Adam & Aaron celebrate the 30th anniversary of Michael Jordan's second season in the National Basketball Association. This episode covers: - NBA regular season - February 7 through 21, 1986 - Insightful minutiae, all but lost to the annals of basketball history In this episode, we discuss numerous happenings from the next 15-day block of the 1985-86 NBA season. The Chicago Bulls played six games in this span – two wins and four losses. Michael Jordan sought second (and third) opinions on his broken foot, before ultimately making the difficult decision to postpone his would-be (February) comeback plans. His Chicago Bulls were facing the distinct possibility of missing the 1986 NBA Playoffs, if the team's form continued to plummet. In other NBA news, Alvin Robertson entered rarefied air, becoming just the second player in history (joining Nate Thurmond) to record a quadruple-double, in the San Antonio Spurs' win versus the visiting Phoenix Suns. Larry Bird continued to star, as his league-leading Celtics became the first team to register forty regular-season wins. Tune in to hear this and plenty more, as we uncover some hidden gems from the NBA’s golden era. This episode continues our coverage of the 1985-86 NBA season. We encourage your interaction.

The Chicago Bulls played six games in this span – one win and five losses. We chat about the Bulls' continued struggle to remain competitive, in the absence of (still injured) Michael Jordan. Conversely, the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers - led by superstars, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson - seemed headed for a would-be rematch of the previous season's NBA Finals. In other NBA news, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar became the first player to surpass 34,000 career points. Meanwhile, the rivalry between Jawann Oldham and Manute Bol, led to a frightening brawl at Chicago Stadium. That fracas offset another (video) tidbit that was highlighted on (NBA Entertainment's) Awesome Endings. This episode continues our coverage of the 1985-86 NBA season. We encourage your interaction.

Adam & Aaron celebrate the 30th anniversary of Michael Jordan's second season in the National Basketball Association. This episode covers: - NBA regular season - November 9 through 23, 1985 - Insightful minutiae, all but lost to the annals of basketball history In this episode, we discuss numerous happenings from the second 15-day block of the 1985-86 NBA season. The Chicago Bulls played eight games in this span – three wins and five losses. We chat about the Bulls' transition from its heavy reliance on (recently injured) Michael Jordan. Chicago was trying to adapt to not having MJ on the floor - this allowed star, Orlando Woolridge, to mesh with lesser-known talents like Sidney Green, Dave Corzine, Jawann Oldham and Kyle Macy; assuming more responsibility for the team's fortunes. We also talk about the role that Michael Jordan played, helping the North Carolina Tar Heels, secure the signature of Scott Williams (future three-time NBA Champion). Further, we discuss the Lakers' best start to a season since the franchise moved to Los Angeles in 1960, Quintin Dailey's return to playing duty, Alex English's 54-point explosion versus Houston, Xavier McDaniel's cameo in (1992 movie) Singles and much more.
