Decimotercer 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 Atlanta Hawks; 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. Tras la mala campaña anterior, Dominique Wilkins lideró al equipo a la cuarta posición de la Conferencia Este. Cuando regresó de su lesión, Doc Rivers rindió también de manera excelente. Kevin Willis y Randy Wittman fueron los otros dos jugadores importantes. El entrenador, Mike Fratello, obtuvo lo máximo de la plantilla, incluidos los secundarios: Cliff Levingston, Tree Rollins, Eddie Johnson y Johnny Davis (estos dos últimos protagonistas del traspaso que sacó al primero de la franquicia). El rookie que se supone que debió ayudar más, Jon Koncak, no lo hizo; en cambio, Spud Webb aportó bastante desde el banquillo. Antoine Carr se lesionó y pasó inadvertido. 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.

But first, he checks in with TommyFreezePops (Tom Carroll), where the guys take a look at the 2021 NFL schedule, focusing on three of their favorite matchups on the slate – Tom Brady’s return to New England in week 4 (01:40), QB storylines aplenty for Packers vs. Saints in week 1 (04:20), and the Browns opening their season on the road in Kansas City for an AFC Divisional Round rematch (07:16).We then move to our interview with Dominique, where he discusses a wide array of topics: why he refused to play for the team that drafted him, the Utah Jazz (14:31); the age he realized he could be a dominant force in the game of basketball (15:32); looking up to Dr. J, and the advice he got from his childhood idol (16:26); how he got the nickname “Human Highlight Reel” (17:26); why “home cooking” may have robbed him of a 1988 NBA Slam Dunk Contest win (18:23); why he never practiced his dunk contest dunks ahead of time (19:22); the two players he thinks are the best dunkers in today’s NBA (20:33); what he looks for when he judges the NBA Dunk Contest (20:47); this week’s edition of “The Name Game,” with thoughts on Trae Young, Randy Wittman, Doc Rivers, Gregg Popovich, Red Auerbach, Moses Malone, Spud Webb, Sidney Moncrief, Mark Jackson and David Robinson (21:23); and how special it was for him to get a statue outside the arena in Atlanta (26:05).Then, TommyFreezePops is joined by Kevin Rogers for his weekly check-in with the experts from VegasInsider.com (38:01 – 45:44).

On Friday night, we rewatched Indiana beating North Carolina 63-50 in the 1981 National Championship Game -- a game that almost wasn't played because of the shooting of Ronald Reagan. Isiah Thomas led the way with 23 points and 5 assists, while Randy Wittman added 17 of his own, as Indiana completed its 5-game NCAA Tournament run winning by an average of 20+ points per game. After the rewatch, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.On the mics: Andy, Chris Williams from IU Artifacts, and Scott Caulfield from Crimson Cast

A contratação de Randy Wittman como assistente de Vogel no Magic, a dispensa de Spencer Hawes, a decepção chamada BIG3, Dan Gilbert nega mudança do Cavs e Lauri Markkanen, promessa do Bulls. (Ep. 7)
Chase Hughes of Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic and Vice Sports’ Michael Pina deliver back-to-back interviews in which they delve deeply into the captivating Eastern Conference semifinal series between the Washington Wizards and Boston Celtics. While the Celtics lead 3-2, the home team has won every single game of the series. No love between the teams has been lost either.Wednesday was a crazy day for D.C. sports fans as the Washington Capitals hosted a Game 7 in which they fell to the Penguins, sending the Caps home early for yet another summer. Also in the nation’s capital, the talented Nationals roared back from four runs down to defeat the Beltway rival Orioles on a walk-off single. That same night, the Wizards lost a one-sided road Game 5 to the Celtics. As the series shifts back to D.C., the Wizards hope to keep their home magic alive just long enough to get one more crack at that elusive road victory in a decisive Game 7. Our guests expertly detail what to look for the remainder of the series, beginning with Chase Hughes who is followed by Michael Pina in the final segment. Below, you'll find a couple excerpts from each section:Chase Hughes (5:02-6:05) on the tense recent history between the Wizards and Celtics:"I knew that there would be some bad blood between these teams, because it dates back really to last season when Jae Crowder got into an argument with their [Washington's] former coach Randy Wittman and accused him of using some obscenities. And then Bradley Beal had his nose broken against the Celtics and got a concussion and has always held that against them. Then all the bad blood this season, the confrontation between Wall and Crowder after that game in Boston, the funeral game that the Wizards had, and John Wall was ejected from a game for a hard foul on Marcus Smart...After that Wall and Crowder incident, the police had to intervene behind the scenes in Boston to make sure that they didn't go after each other. We knew it was there, but the extent it boiled over in Game 3, I don't think any of us could have predicted…There were eight technicals, three ejections, and of course, Kelly Oubre's shove of Kelly Olynyk earned him a suspension, and that kind of highlighted it all. There was also Brandon Jennings and Terry Rozier, and they also have a history dating back to earlier this season."CH (9:37-10:44) on how the Wizards have adjusted to guarding superstar Isaiah Thomas and what the Celtics did in Game 5 to counteract those Wizards adjustments:"They've made a few adjustments, most notably throwing two or three guys at him trying to double, triple-team him, especially when he gets into the lane, and defending without fouling, with their hands up in the air. They did obviously a really good job in Game 4. I think they've also done better, at least in Games 3 and 4, at making him work more on the defensive end and not letting him save his energy by backing him down with Otto Porter, Bojan Bogdanovic, and with Bradley Beal in Game 4 in particular, who got into a rhythm early because of it. But I think in Game 5 what Isaiah Thomas did a good job of doing as an adjustment was, first of all, he shot seven free-throw attempts, which is much more in line with what he averaged during the regular season, but also he got a little better at finding open guys once the defense collapsed on him. I think he had nine assists in the game and I think he did a very good job of finding open 3-point shoo...Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Episode 20: Washington Wizards have parted ways with Randy Wittman
In this NBA megacast, Rajan Nanavati talks to Keely Diven of CSN Mid-Atlantic about the Washington Wizards and other NBA topics, including a lack of chemistry between John Wall and Bradley Beal (7:10), an under-discussed reason Randy Wittman was fired (11:01), who won't be the Wizards head coach next year (15:03), the incredible likability of the Golden State Warriors (31:53), Stephen Curry being a "normal guy" (37:19), and the life of a sports journalist (46:23). Then, Rajan is rejoined by friends Neel and John to discuss the NBA playoffs, including the strange construction of the Charlotte Hornets (1:05:31), predicting the Raptors losing in Round 1 (1:10:08), whether a new LeBron-lead superteam is possible (1:20:35), the biggest threat to Cleveland in the East (1:33:19), and our first team All-NBA ballots (1:49:20).
In the inaugural Hail To The District podcast, host Rajan Nanavat is joined by good friends John and Neel to recap the Washington Wizards 2015-2016 season, discussing if the Wizards should give Bradley Beal a max contract (7:52), the reasons Randy Wittman was ultimately fired (14:13), ESPN's "30 for 30" episode on the Orlando Magic (24:12), the Wizards and other NBA coaching vacancies (29:40), whether John Wall deserves blame for this year's failures (39:12), Becky Hammond as an NBA head coach (50:22), and more.

Jonny Flynn continues to learn valuable lessons right before our eyes, as he'll improve, struggle, and then be a step further then he was before he struggled. High's and lows are all over this episode, as well as the doors opening to possible trades. Finally, we get into Kevin Love's comments towards Randy Wittman.
Well, Randy Wittman's maddeningly inconsistent rotation is gone, and with McHale relinquishing his VP duties, its time to get down to business and coach the team HE put together. The good part is, I don't think McHale will be all that bad as a coach, I'm not kidding.. its been what everyone says how they learn so much from him, now its time for him to do his job for real. The team has played better, but still is in search of a win after two games since the firing.
Clearly this team is on course for another 25 wins or less type of season once again, as I retract from my original prediction of 35. Randy Wittman has proven that he cannot coach and has no consistency with his players, his rotation, and doesn't seem to have the ability to coach offense or defense. Above all though, Rashad McCants is officially another worthless gunner that will kill you if you give him the ball, with ill timed shots that never go in to begin with. Where or where are you O.J. Mayo and Brandon Roy?
