Podcast appearances and mentions of maurice lucas

Vigésimo 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 Phoenix Suns; 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. Mala campaña para esta franquicia. La salida de Maurice Lucas no fue cubierta por nadie solvente. Walter Davis reconoció sus problemas con las drogas, aunque rindió bien. La estrella del equipo fue Larry Nance. Sin embargo, no hubo más jugadores que destacaran, aunque tenían gente cumplidora: Jay Humphries, James Edwards, Ed Pinckney, Alvan Adams, Mike Sanders y algún otro. Por otra parte, ficharon a Georgi Glouchkov, quien fue el primer europeo sin formación baloncestística estadounidense en saltar a una cancha en la NBA. 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.

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.

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.

Trigésimo sexto programa dedicado a la temporada 1983-84 de la NBA en el que continuamos el repaso de los playoffs con la serie de semifinal del Oeste disputada entre Phoenix Suns y Utah Jazz. Comparamos a equipos, jugadores, banquillos y entrenadores; revisamos uno a uno los partidos y sacamos conclusiones de la eliminatoria. Serie en la que Walter Davis siguió dominando los finales de partido, como hizo en primera ronda; con un Adrian Dantley que anotó mucho, pero no lo suficiente, ya que el resto de sus compañeros se quedaron cortos (irregular Griffith y flojos tanto Rickey Green como Thurl Bailey); mientras que en Suns tanto Maurice Lucas como Larry Nance ayudaron tanto en defensa (sobre Dantley) como en ataque.

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.

NCAA great, 12-year NBA veteran and 1988 All-Star, Xavier McDaniel. The X-Man joins the show for a wide-ranging discussion about his life in basketball. Few players in NBA history were as physical as McDaniel. However, there's much more to Xavier's bow than simply being an enforcer. He was the first-ever player (1985) to lead the NCAA [Division I] in scoring and rebounding in the same season. His name is littered throughout the record books at Wichita State, where he played four seasons with the Shockers. As a senior, he was named First-team All-American. The Seattle SuperSonics drafted Xavier with the fourth pick in the 1985 NBA Draft. He played all 82 games as a rookie and was second to (future teammate and great friend) Patrick Ewing in Rookie of the Year voting. Xavier talks about his six seasons in Seattle. He discusses the impact that Maurice Lucas had on his game, speaks candidly about his role in the 1988 NBA All-Star Game and talks fondly of (would-be) future stars, Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton. We discuss his trade to Phoenix (15 games into the 1991 season) and how he became a member of the New York Knicks. Though he played the one season with the Knicks, his addition to the team made New York instant contenders for the NBA title. In 1992, the Knicks extended the Chicago Bulls to seven games in the second round of the Eastern Conference Playoffs. We discuss the series in-depth and Xavier expresses his thoughts on the series as only he can. McDaniel joined the Boston Celtics in the wake of Larry Bird's retirement. He played for three seasons in Boston. We discuss his memories of that time, how the Celtics tried to adjust to life without Bird, the soon-to-be retirement of Kevin McHale and the tragic loss of Reggie Lewis. Xavier headed overseas to play a season in Greece (1996), before returning to the NBA to close out his career as a member of the New Jersey Nets. He talks about his retirement from basketball, some of the great honors he's received and much more, in a conversation that clearly demonstrates Xavier McDaniel's passion for basketball. This is without doubt, one of the most-enjoyable conversations I've had to date.

Honorable Mention All-American (1983) and NBA veteran, Roy Hinson. Roy Hinson calls himself a “late bloomer”. His underlying talent – matched with his height – didn’t lay dormant for long. As a senior, his sudden impact on the hardwood helped steer Franklin Township High School to a 25-2 senior season, culminating in the Sectional Championship Game. Roy details the decision making behind his choice to attend Rutgers University, where he became a standout and future Hall of Fame player. Not only did Roy make post-season tournaments in his junior and senior seasons, he also had the opportunity to fly to Europe, twice, representing Team USA (1981 World University Games) and an All-Star squad (1982 National Invitational Tournament tour). Our conversation covers a wide range of topics. We discuss Roy’s early years in the NBA, his appearance in the 1986 Slam Dunk Contest, his trade to Philadelphia – and later, New Jersey, his home state – and the injury concerns that ultimately forced him into an early retirement. The conversation concludes with discussion about Roy’s role at the NBA Players Association, the 2018 NBA All-Star Weekend / Legends Brunch and terrific insight into the reasoning behind the jersey numbers that Roy wore throughout his career. Links discussed (include): * Cleveland clinch playoffs berth; despite terrible start to season * 1986 Slam Dunk Contest People mentioned in this episode, include: George Karl, World B. Free, Julius Erving, Kevin McHale, Hakeem Olajuwon, Michael Jordan, Billy Cunningham, Spud Webb, Maurice Lucas, John Bagley & Ralph Sampson.   Editor's note: sign-up for the monthly newsletter - receive exclusive details on upcoming podcast episodes and future, high-profile guests to appear on the show.

Members of the Trail Blazers' 1977 NBA Championship team look back on the franchise's historic season.

We look at how the Spurs, Nets, Nuggets, and Pacers adjusted to life in the NBA after being part of the 1976 NBA-ABA merger in the latest edition of Over and Back's Basketball Mysteries of the 1970s. Adam Johnson of Basketball Pantheon joins the show to discuss how the former ABA teams were at an initial competitive disadvantage because of the terms of the merger, how 1977 was the first season with a fully balanced NBA schedule, how the Nuggets with David Thompson and Dan Issel had come off an ABA Finals run in 1976 and were a strong NBA Finals contender, a forgotten classic Nuggets-Bucks playoff series in 1978, how Thompson's drug problems eventually caught up with him, how the Spurs were initially successful in San Antonio, how the Spurs became contenders in the late '70s but fell short in two consecutive series vs. the Bullets, how the Pacers were forced to rebuild in the late '70s after being an ABA dynasty, Indiana's puzzling series of trades where they would lose out on future superstars (including Adrian Dantley, Bernard King and Alex English), the Nets being forced to trade Julius Erving and losing Tiny Archibald to injury, and the move from New York to New Jersey. They also discuss the 1976 ABA dispersal draft and how Artis Gilmore, Moses Malone, Maurice Lucas, Ron Boone and Marvin Barnes made their marks on the NBA, and how some former ABA talent was left out in the cold.

We look at Bill Walton and how revolutionary he was in his politics, lifestyle and on the basketball floor in the latest episode of Over and Back's Basketball Mysteries of the 1970s. The redheaded center was an amazing passer, defender, shotblocker, and crafty scorer with a range of smarts and skills whose Portland Trail Blazers seemed on the verge of a dynasty when Walton’s foot injury in 1978 led to a nasty divorce with the team. He took lots of media criticism for his anti-establishment politics and his counterculture lifestyle, especially before he won the championship in 1977. We detail the reasons he was a revolutionary force in and out of basketball and talk about the 1977 Blazers, why he was linked to kidnapped heiress Patty Hearst, being the first NBA player with a ponytail, his criticism of capitalism, his versatility, his simultaneous love but obsession with the game, how Portland came to embrace Blazermania, how Maurice Lucas ended up being the perfect complement, how Walton and Jack Ramsay saw the game in the same way, and the other major contributors to the Blazers (Lionel Hollins, Bob Gross, Dave Twardzik, Larry Steele and Johnny Davis). We also discuss a playoff series against Artis Gilmore's Bulls, how Lucas intimidated a replacement ref, a tough matchup against the Nuggets with David Thompson and Dan Issel, a sweep over a hobbled Lakers team with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and finally a Finals win over Julius Erving's Sixers with a wild brawl, a huge turnaround from a 0-2 series deficit, and classic duel by Walton and Erving in Game 6. We also include part of a previous episode discussing "The Breaks of the Game" with Curtis Harris of Pro Hoops History and James of NBA Injury Report.

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.

We look at the history of the Kentucky Colonels, who won more regular season games than any other ABA team but continuously failed in the postseason until finally winning a championship in 1975 with Artis Gilmore, Dan Issel and coach Hubie Brown. We are joined by Adam Johnson of Basketball Pantheon and talk about the wacky early history of the Colonels, including their show dog mascot Ziggy and a publicity stunt involving jockey Penny Ann Early becoming the first woman to play in a pro men’s game, and discuss the dynamic backcourt of Darel Carrier and Louie Dampier, the original Splash Brothers who were early pioneers of 3-point shooting. We go through the key points of the team’s 1971 through 1976 seasons, the recruitment of University of Kentucky star Dan Issel, a surprise run to the Finals under Boston Celtics legend Frank Ramsey, adding premier big man Artis Gilmore and his giant Afro, storming to the greatest regular season in ABA history in 1972 but falling to an upstart New York Nets team led by Rick Barry, the infamous Wendell Ladner poster doing his best Burt Reynolds imitation, classic seven-game playoff battles with Billy Cunningham’s Carolina Cougars and interstate rival the Indiana Pacers in 1973 We also discuss new owner John Y. Brown putting his wife and a 10-woman board of directors in charge, the wonderful sayings of coach Babe McCarthy, how ahead of the times Hubie Brown was as a coach, the Colonels finally delivering under pressure and winning the 1975 title, how it took a bit of luck for them to do it, how the 1976 season went sour, a fight between Hubie Brown and Maurice Lucas, and why John Y. Brown decided to fold the team rather than try to get the Colonels into the ABA. Original airdate: 9/2/16 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hall of Fame center Bill Walton joined The Vertical Podcast with Woj in a wide-ranging discussion on his life and basketball career. Walton, who recently authored his memoir, "Back From The Dead," discusses how close he came to committing suicide because of years of agony over a collapsed spine. Walton goes into entertaining detail on playing for a crusty military colonel coaching on the U.S. National team at 17 years old in Europe, getting offered part-ownership of an ABA franchise out of UCLA, refusing to accept trying out for the 1972 U.S. Olympic team, Maurice Lucas kicking Daryl Dawkins ass in the 1977 NBA Finals. Walton explains why the FBI pounded on his hotel door as part of the Patty Hearst kidnapping investigation, how he extracted himself from Donald Sterling and the decisions Boston Celtics patriarch Red Auerbach made in a hospital to allow Walton a chance to play with Larry Bird and Kevin McHale.

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.
