Big Shot Bob – Shoot Around Ep 71 – I’d Bet Rob’s House On It

Big Shot Bob Pod with Robert Horry

The bonus show opens with some great questions from Big Shot listeners, including Dean who wants to know who our Play-In teams will be based on the picks we made last week. Rob rolls with the Bucks and Sixers in the East, and the Nuggets and the Kings in the West… Jenners has the Sixers and Heat in the East, and Dallas and the Suns in the West… and B-Dog goes with the Lakers and Dallas in the West, and the Hawks and the Nets in the East.

Plus Michael Porter Jr said this week that if the Nuggets don’t win this year that they might have to break up that team, and a look at everyone’s contracts proves that otherwise. But Rob feels like they need to focus on getting the bench pieces back that they lost in order to turn it around. And after impressive starts, listeners what to know who Rob thinks will have a bigger impact on their team this season, Buddy Hield or Sabonis? And Rob is rolling with Buddy because he’s basically become the new splash brother. Rob also agrees with Baron Davis’s assessment that a Doc Rivers team is a “beatable team” and says they may need to blow up the Bucks entirely.

There was also a weird streak that came to light this week, where the Houston Rockets haven’t beat the Golden State Warriors since February of 2020! That led us to ask Rob about teams he could not find a way to beat, and he says his Houston team couldn’t beat the Sonics because of their iconic lineup. And finally we all tech the higher or lower bet that Draymond laid out, saying he’d get less than 10 techs this season.
