It's April 28th, 1975 and the best basketball player in the NBA plays in Buffalo. Bob McAdoo wins the MVP for the Buffalo Braves who are in the playoffs and taking on Wes Unseld, Elvin Hayes and the Washington Bullets in a fierce series that would eventually go 7 games. One of the unsung heroes for the Braves is on the cover of Sports Illustrated from 50 years ago as he soars to the basket during game four of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The 6'6 forward had a standout college career for the Oklahoma Sooners where he was the schools 2nd all-time leading scorer and all-time leading rebounder at the time of his graduation. Playing for John McLeod at Oklahoma, Heard averaged 21.7 points and 12.5 rebounds per game in his senior year. Taken by the Supersonics in the 3rd round, Heard didn't do much in his first two years in Seattle before being traded to Chicago and then in 1973 to Buffalo… and it was there where his NBA career took off. Playing alongside McAdoo and Randy Smith, Heard did the hard work averaging a double-double in his two years and helping take the team to their first two playoff appearances… But after a successful 1974-75 season, Heard was shocked when he was dealt yet again… this time to Phoenix where he once again would play for head coach, John McLeod. The Suns were languishing in the West before Heard's arrival, but soon they took off… Playing in a league high 86 games, Heard once again averaged a double-double as the Suns made the playoffs and beat Seattle in 6 games and the defending champion Warriors in 7 with Heard once again averaging 14 points and 11 rebounds to advance to the '76 NBA Finals. Awaiting the Suns were the Celtics and with the series knotted at two games each, game 5 was played on the parquet floor in Boston… and what a game five it was. Some call it the greatest NBA playoff game ever played. In one of the craziest finishes of all-time, the Celtics took a 2-point lead with 1 second left to play in the 2nd overtime. That's when Gar Heard made the basketball version of The Shot Heard Round the World. A 20-footer over the outstretched hands of Don Nelson that hit nothing but the bottom of the net. On to the 3rd overtime it went where the luck of the Celtics Green finally prevailed and won the series in 6 games. But for one moment… one second to be more precise… Gar Heard made a shot of a lifetime. On the Past Our Prime podcast, Heard tells us all about the shot, and the technical foul Paul Westphal and the Suns took on purpose to help give them a shot… a shot Heard says was meant for him to take! Heard tells us how shocked he was to be dealt from cold and snowy Buffalo to the desert in Arizona in the middle of the 75-76 season and how Coach McLeod mentored him both in college and the pro's. Heard's career was more than just one miraculous shot and he tells us about the block he had on a young Keith Wilkes baseline jumper that helped knock off the Warriors and send the Suns to the Finals. A week after the Giants Bobby Thompson hit the Shot Heard Round the World in New York it's Gar Heard's turn to do it… this time in Boston. Just a few miles away from where the original Shot Heard Round the World took place two hundred years earlier in April of 1775. One of the greatest shots in NBA history and Heard tells us all about it on the Past Our Prime podcast. Listen and subscribe to the show for your weekly dose of sports history.

Undécimo 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 Washington Bullets; 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. Llegaba Manute Bol a la liga y el impacto sería inmediato. La nueva lesión de Jeff Ruland volvió a condicionar la campaña de los Bullets. Aunque el equipo se reforzó con Dan Roundfield, no fue suficiente para ir a más. Jeff Malone fue de lo mejor, pero Gus Williams no rindió según lo esperado. Salieron de la franquicia tanto Rick Mahorn como Greg Ballard. El entrenador, Gene Shue, se enfocó de nuevo en defender bien y atacar lento. Cliff Robinson continuó anotando, Frank Johnson se lesionó de nuevo y Darren Daye ayudó. 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.

Catch up with ALLISON INTERVIEWS Host, Allison Kugel: Follow on Instagram - @theallisonkugel Allison Interviews Blog - allisoninterviews.com Allison's Memoir, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a life unhinged and on the record In the latest installment of the Allison Interviews Podcast, journalist and host Allison Kugel talks with NBA legend Muggsy Bogues. With his unique ball handling skills and 44-inch vertical, while he never dunked in an NBA game, Muggsy could dunk a ball. After initially playing for the then Washington Bullets, the expansion draft that occurred when the NBA added teams for the 1988-89 season put Bogues where he belonged, with the Charlotte Hornets. He quickly became a fan favorite in Charlotte, North Carolina, especially with younger fans. He raised his points-per game average to ten in the 1992-93 season and helped lead the Hornets to their first ever appearance in the NBA playoffs. They made the playoffs again in 1995. In 1997 Muggsy Bogues led with an assist per turnover ratio of 4.34. He was traded to the Golden State Warriors early in the 1997-98 season, but not before becoming the Charlotte Hornets' all-time leader in both steals and assists, which he still holds today. Muggsy Bogues' storied career with the NBA lasted fourteen years, and to this day, he remains the shortest player to ever make it into the NBA. In 2014, Bogues was named as the Hornets Ambassador and Special Projects Advisor, a position he still serves today. Muggsy Bogues currently travels around the U.S. doing speaking engagements, and he and his daughter Brittney Bogues run the Muggsy Bogues Family Foundation. The Muggsy Bogues Family Foundation works to empower underserved youth and families to improve their quality of life through food security, access to education, and workforce development. The Foundation envisions equitable, thriving communities where everyone has a shot at a better life.

After a long and grueling NBA postseason, the two teams that remain standing are the Denver Nuggets and the Miami Heat. The Nuggets, a hold over from the old American Basketball Association, are in the NBA Finals for the very first time. Meanwhile the Miami Heat are looking for their third NBA Championship in franchise history. In this episode Dana Auguster will take a look at the history of these two franchises and also compile each teams all-time team, the starters, bench players and reserves. Later in the show in the "Shout out" segment, Dana Auguster will highlight the 1978 NBA Finals between the Washington Bullets and the Seattle Supersonics. This years NBA Finals has some things in common with this finals that took place 45 years ago. That year's NBA finals could be considered one of the most evenly matched and competitive finals ever.

In 1979, the Washington Bullets visited Manila for a game against a selection of PBA players, marking the first official visit from NBA players to the Philippines. Since then, a number of players have visited, both for NBA-sponsored games and events, like the Houston Rockets v Indiana Pacers 2013 preseason game, and for their own sneaker tours and personal visits. LeBron James has been memorialized at the famous Tenement court with his handprint, Chandler Parsons had fans asking his dad for an autograph, and Robin Lopez said he and Wesley Matthews “felt like rockstars” while visiting. However, one NBA star rises above the rest when we think about the impact he had on the Philippines - both at an individual level, connecting with fans one-on-one, and as a nation of basketball lovers. Cassidy Hubbarth and Nikko Ramos discuss the NBA players who have visited the Philippines over the years, and the lasting legacy of the Black Mamba.

In this episode I look at the real meaning of Zelenskys Christmas in Washington, the sheer brute cynicism of the likes of Lindsay Graham and the return of Oliver North. I then turn to domestic British politics and Rishi Sunaks proposed attacks on the right to strike. I conclude by looking at the long term rates of poverty in Britain and why they never actually reduce over the last 30 years.

Recorded on the campus of Syracuse University in October 2022, former play-by-play announcer Dave Cohen joined the show. “Coney Island Dave” (a nickname given to him by his dear friend Bob Costas) was the TV voice of the New York Yankees from 1995-1996. He was also the TV voice of the then-Washington Bullets and the original host of Mets Extra. Dave was an original play-by-play announcer for ESPN in 1979. He called Syracuse Football, Basketball, and Lacrosse during the 1980s for a cable outlet called Super Sports. In this episode, Cohen discusses how his career was a combination of being in the right place at the right time. He won an Emmy award for his commentary during Dwight Gooden's 1996 no-hitter. He discussed the strategy of giving Syracuse broadcasts to new cable networks across the country on tape delay and the impact that had on the athletic programs during the 1980s.
Vijay Prashad is a leading historian on the Global South and U.S. empire. His books include Washington Bullets, The Darker Nations: A People's History of the Third World and most recently The Withdrawal: Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, and the Fragility of U.S. Power, which features Prashad in dialogue with Noam Chomsky. Today, he joins editor in chief Nathan J. Robinson for a spirited conversation on U.S. foreign policy. The discussion covers, among other things:Why the U.S. left has an obligation to pay attention to the way U.S. power operates abroadThe total lack of any accountability for the criminal wars waged by the U.S. and our lack of interest in applying the legal standards of the Nuremberg tribunals to ourselvesHow every rival power is always characterized as monstrous, bent on world domination, and impossible to reason withWhy the term "American empire" is useful and how American imperialism is similar to and different from other kinds of imperialismHow the U.S. operates internationally like a mafia godfather—and why the comparison might actually be unfair to the Mafia, who are more inclined toward diplomatic solutions"No country in the world has through its wars killed the number of people that the United States has killed in the last 35 odd years. And yet in the U.S. you sound insane to say: Why didn't we have Donald Rumsfeld give testimony at the ICC? Or why not ask George W. Bush to at least stand up and stop painting his ridiculous paintings and reflect a little on having conducted that war? There's just no space in public discourse for that kind of thing. In Nuremberg, there was the death penalty for a war of aggression. But the poison pen of Nuremberg is for others. It's not for the United States. I think that's the responsibility of intellectuals is to not allow amnesia to set in around these really quite consequential issues—consequential not only for the Iraqis, I must say, but also for the U.S. veterans who continue to be haunted by that war." — Vijay Prashad An article on the Clintons and Haiti can be found here.

There are a lot of bad days, bad beats and troubling outcomes for fans of sports in DC. Which ones made us mad and which ones created tears. Reese and the listeners break down a list of all of them on this installment.
Mitch Kupchak grew up in a different America with parents whose upbringing in the Great Depression instilled a strong work ethic but left little time for sports. But as Mitch grew into his 6-foot-10 frame, it soon became apparent that he was destined for something special on the hardwood. As his skills caught up with his size, several college coaches came calling, and it was a simple, honest pitch from Dean Smith that convinced the young man to attend the University of North Carolina. Once at Chapel Hill, Mitch was molded into the man he became by a combination of Smith's leadership and his own diligence. This earned him a berth on the gold medal winning Team USA squad in the 1976 Montreal Olympics and a roster spot for the Washington Bullets, where he won the NBA championship with Hall of Famers Wes Unseld and Elvin Hayes. Mitch battled through several serious knee injuries to win two more titles with the Showtime Lakers, and then undertook an apprenticeship under Jerry West, who prepared him for life in the front office. Kupchak eventually took over the Lakers GM role from West, winning two more championships with the Kobe Bryant-Pau Gasol team. He is now the President of Basketball Operations and VP of the Charlotte Hornets. In this episode, Mitch shares: How his upbringing built a firm foundation for successWhat Dean Smith taught him about leading a gold medal lifeWhy his Bullets teammate Ernie Grunfeld became his best friendHow Jerry West prepared him to be an NBA GMWhat he remembers from watching a 17-year-old Kobe Bryant work out for the Lakers

We are excited to bring you this episode of the #squarepizzapod. To kick off year 3, Greg is in conversation with Tyrone "Muggsy" Bogues. He is also known as the Godfather of Smallball. He played 14 seasons in the NBA, with 10 of those being with our beloved Charlotte Hornets. One fun fact about Muggsy is that he was a wrestler in high school and how that sport influenced his basketball career.In this episode:Muggsy's reflection on spending 14 seasons in the NBAStories and insights covered in his new memoirThe work of the Muggsy Bogues Family FoundationHis first love in sports (hint: not basketball)Why square pizza reminds him both of UNC basketball and cheese...Muggsy Bogues is vital to the NBA that he transcends the game itself, as seen by how the game is now played. We hope you guys enjoy this episode! Bio:Tyrone "Muggsy" Bogues born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland played for the legendary high school team, the Dunbar Poets who won 59 consecutive games and ranked as one of the top high school teams in the United States. Bogues went on to graduate from Wake Forest where the school later retired his jersey number. Muggsy was selected 12th in the first round of the NBA draft by the Washington Bullets. He retired from the NBA ranking 16th among all-time assist leaders. He gained plenty of attention with his unique ball-handling skills; he could maintain a legal dribble so close to the ground that his knuckles dragged on the floor and with his high jumper range of 44-inch leaps on the court. Throughout his career, he stayed busy starting in commercials and major productions like Space Jam, Eddie, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Muggsy retired from professional play ranking at number 16 among all-time assist leaders in the NBA and still remains the shortest player in history. Since leaving the NBA, Muggsy has worked with his nonprofit the Muggsy Bogues Family Foundation based in Charlotte, NC where he resides with his family. Muggsy is also an Ambassador for the NBA traveling the world educating youth. www.boguesfoundation.org Support the show (http://Scherm.co)
