Robert Horry, Rob Jenners, and Brandon Harper break down everything that matters in the NBA right now — and a few things that don't. Big Shot Bob is hosting a baby shower and hiding from 50 women, so naturally it's the perfect time to talk basketball.  We dig deep into the OKC Thunder vs San Antonio Spurs Western Conference Finals with Game 6 on the horizon. The Spurs have been in a fistfight but the young bulls keep letting emotion get in the way. Robert has firsthand thoughts on what Gregg Popovich's halftime speeches actually do to a team — and a legendary story about the one time Pop yelled at him. Spoiler: Robert laughed.    Wemby is the conversation. He joined Bill Walton as the only player in NBA history with 300 points, 150 rebounds, and 50 blocks in their first postseason. But is he doing enough? We debate whether he needs to go full Kobe — get on the block and tell everybody to get out of the way — and why his grace and his aggression can coexist.  Over in the East, we put the Cleveland Cavaliers series loss to the Knicks through the shredder. James Harden's stat line across four games is... rough. The coaching staff takes heat. And Kenny Atkinson already confirmed he's coming back next season, plus there are rumors of a Harden extension that have us concerned for Cleveland's future.    The flopping debate is real. A San Antonio fan brought a mini Oscar for SGA. Jay Williams called it exhausting. Robert says put some defense back in the damn game and Adam Silver needs to call in some old heads to sort it out.  Plus: All-NBA teams are set, Jalen Brunson takes home the Larry Bird Trophy, the All-Rookie team is announced, and a man in Ohio jumps into a pond to save a mother and daughter — your Big Shot of the Week.  Then we run Conference Finals Chaos — a trivia game covering NBA history milestones from this postseason. Longest Finals drought, back-to-back champions, three-peat MVP winners, and more.   TOPICS THIS EPISODE: • OKC Thunder vs Spurs Game 6 preview — who's got the edge? • Robert Horry on Gregg Popovich's comeback and locker room presence • The one time Pop yelled at Big Shot Bob (and what happened next) • Wemby's historic postseason numbers and why he needs to attack more • Wemby compared to young Kobe — the confidence, the cockiness, the potential • The SGA flopping debate and the woman with the mini Oscar at courtside • James Harden's embarrassing series vs the Knicks, game by game • Kenny Atkinson confirmed as returning Cavs coach — are they making a mistake? • Knicks fans, former players on the court, and James Dolan getting an unexpected compliment • All-NBA first team announced — Shai and Jokic unanimous • Joe Mazzulla wins Coach of the Year • All-Rookie team: Cooper Flagg leads the way • Knicks waiting on their Finals opponent — rest vs rhythm debate • Big Shot of the Week: Yianni Saris jumps into a pond to save a mom and her daughter • Conference Finals Chaos trivia game — NBA history, streaks, and records   Hit Subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss an episode of Big Shot Bob.  Find us on your podcast app — search Big Shot Bob Podcast.    #BigShotBob #RobertHorry #NBAPlayoffs #OKCThunder #SanAntonioSpurs #Wembanyama #NewYorkKnicks #JamesHarden #NBA #ConferenceFinalsRecap #NBAFinals   00:00 Intro — Baby Shower Edition 02:00 OKC vs Spurs Game 5 Recap 05:00 San Antonio's Turnover Problem 07:00 The Young Bull & Old Bull Story Explained 09:30 Can the Spurs Force a Game 7? 11:00 Wemby Needs to Demand the Ball 12:30 Wemby Compared to Young Kobe 15:00 Knicks vs OKC or Spurs in the Finals? 17:00 J-Dub's Injury & OKC Contract Talk 19:00 Wemby's Historic Postseason Numbers 19:30 Pop's Return & His Locker Room Speech 21:30 SGA Flopping Debate & the Mini Oscar Lady 24:00 James Harden & the NBA's Defense Problem 26:30 Eastern Conference Finals Recap — Cavs Get Swept 28:00 James Harden's Ugly Game-by-Game Stat Line 29:00 Kenny Atkinson Confirmed + Harden Extension Rumors 31:30 Knicks Depth, Shamet's Moment & Former Players 37:30 All-NBA Teams, Coach of the Year & All-Rookie Team 41:30 Big Shot of the Week — Yianni Saris 42:30 Conference Finals Chaos Trivia Game

Big Shot Bob is back and he's got thoughts on everything — Kevin Durant's mounting reputation problem, a boxing night gone sideways, and the fight stories you didn't know you needed to hear.   This week on Shoot Around, Rob Jenners, Brandon Harper, and NBA legend Robert Horry break down the Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano Netflix disaster (17 seconds, folks), revisit the Mayweather-Pacquiao letdown, and get into whether KD is officially more trouble than he's worth — Colin Cowherd's "boat analogy" sets off a whole debate. Then it's athletes who threw it all away (Latrell Sprewell and Dennis Rodman get called out), Peyton Manning's diabolical trash talk strategy, and some genuinely unhinged public fight stories to close things out.   Plus: Horry on the worst smells he's ever encountered, Edwin Diaz and the cockfighting controversy, and Robert Horry quietly admitting he jumped on someone's bad knee and then stepped aside while they ran into a backboard. Just another week.   👇 Drop your biggest sports letdown in the comments.   Find us: 🎙️ Apple Podcasts | Spotify | All platforms — search "Big Shot Bob Pod"   #ShootAround #RobertHorry #BigShotBob #NBA #KevinDurrant #PeytonManning #SportsPodcast   00:00 – Intro / Big Shot Bob Welcome 00:30 – Episode Setup & Listener Questions 01:00 – Biggest Sports Letdowns: Rousey vs. Carano on Netflix 03:30 – Tyson vs. Holyfield II & the Night Tupac Got Shot 05:30 – Mayweather vs. Pacquiao: The PPV Nobody Wanted 07:00 – Colin Cowherd's KD "Boat" Analogy 08:00 – Robert Horry's Take on Kevin Durant's Real Problem 09:30 – KD in Houston: Does He Have Enough Around Him? 11:30 – Would KD Work on the Denver Nuggets? 13:30 – Edwin Diaz Linked to Cockfighting Ring 15:00 – Athletes Who Threw Their Careers Away 16:30 – Dennis Rodman's Wasted Potential 17:00 – Peyton Manning's Diabolical Trash Talk Strategy 18:30 – Robert Horry's Most Diabolical On-Court Move 20:00 – Worst Things We've Ever Smelled 23:30 – Sewer Lines, Baby Blowouts & Horry's Alabama Childhood 24:00 – Best Fights Ever Witnessed in Public 27:00 – Bar Stools, Bottles & Tim Duncan Jokes to Close

Robert Horry, Rob Jenners, and Brandon Harper are back for episode 260 of the Big Shot Bob Podcast — and they had to wait a day to drop it because the NBA couldn't stop cooking.   Victor Wembanyama dropped 41 points and 24 rebounds in a double-overtime thriller against OKC — including a pull-up three from basically the logo that had Robert Horry's jaw on the floor. The guys break down what it means for the West Finals, why Stephon Castle needs to cut the turnovers, and whether Alex Caruso was really the right guy to put on a 7-foot alien.   Then there's Cleveland. The Cavs had a 99.9% win probability with eight minutes left and handed it right back to Jalen Brunson and the Knicks. Robert Horry has strong feelings about James Harden, Kenny Atkinson's timeout usage, and what happens to Cleveland's chances if they don't wake Donovan Mitchell up.   Plus: Jason Kidd gets fired in Dallas, SGA wins back-to-back MVPs and showers the Thunder roster with AP watches and Burberry trench coats (Dream and Shaq could never), Shams Charania blows up Prime Video's big MVP moment, Anthony Edwards daps up the Spurs bench with eight minutes still on the clock, and Jamal Mosley lands a head coaching job faster than most guys find an apartment.   The crew also plays Championship Connection — a new game where Rob gives Robert Horry a championship team and finds out who he shared the floor with. The '96 Bulls, '03 Spurs, '04 Pistons and more come up. The answers will surprise you.   New episodes every week.

It's Friday, which means it's time for the bonus show. Episode 133 of Shoot Around kicks off with some genuinely surprising news — Alperen Sengun was voted the NBA's most overrated player by his own peers in The Athletic's annual poll. Seven-time champion Robert Horry weighs in on whether that reputation is fair, what Jeff Teague said about swag, and which players would actually top the overrated list if the guys had a vote.   Then it's straight into the Kevin Hart Roast — specifically the clips of Draymond Green catching shots from Tom Brady, Shane Gillis, Jeff Ross, and The Rock. The guys break down the best lines of the night and give Draymond his flowers for actually holding his own on the mic.   After that, a legendary clip courtesy of a listener: Vernon Maxwell on All The Smoke telling the full story of Hakeem Olajuwon slapping him in the locker room at halftime. Robert Horry was there for the Rockets at the time, so yeah — this one gets personal.   And then things take a turn. A Frontier Airlines plane struck a pedestrian who'd somehow made it onto the runway at Denver International Airport — and the guys react to the cockpit audio. From there, the show ends on a high note: the story of Jessica Holloway, the Tampa mom who set up a folding table at a U8 girls soccer game and started selling homemade wine to the other parents out of an Igloo cooler. Her menu included "Referee Tears" at $15 a jar. She was arrested. The guys are outraged on her behalf.   Subscribe for new episodes every Tuesday and Friday.   00:00  Intro – Big Shot Bob 00:30  Sengun Named NBA's Most Overrated Player 01:30  Breaking Down the Player Vote 02:30  Who Would YOU Vote For? 03:30  Robert Horry Weighs In on Overrated 04:30  Dillon Brooks, Markkanen & More Names 05:30  Draymond at the Kevin Hart Roast 06:00  Best Roast Lines on Draymond 07:30  Draymond Fires Back at Chelsea Handler 08:00  Regina Hall & the Roast Special Breakdown 09:00  Vernon Maxwell Story: Hakeem Slapped Him? 09:30  Mad Max Tells the Full Story 11:00  Robert Horry Reacts – He Was There 12:00  A Man Got Hit by a Plane at Denver Airport 12:30  Cockpit Audio from the Frontier Airlines Incident 14:00  The Guys React to the Runway Story 14:30  Jessica Holloway: The Wine Mom at the Soccer Game 15:00  The Menu: Sangria, Rosé & Referee Tears 16:00  Should She Have Been Arrested? 17:00  Parenting at Kids' Sports Events & Final Takes

Seven-time NBA champion Robert Horry, B-Dog Brandon Harper, and Rob Jenners break down everything happening in the 2025 playoffs — and there's a LOT to get into on Episode 259.   The Thunder are rolling. OKC swept the Lakers to go 8-0 in the playoffs so far, doing it without Jalen Williams and doing it in convincing fashion. Big Shot Bob gives his honest take on LA's future — including whether Austin Reaves deserves $250 million, what LeBron's exit interview really signals, and why the Lakers keep running into the same wall every spring.   Then the guys get into Victor Wembanyama's elbow on Naz Reid — Rob makes the case he should've been suspended, and breaks down exactly why the NBA's handling of it sets a bad precedent. Should the league have at least hit him with a fine? Everyone agrees on that one. We also dig into what NOT suspending Wemby says about how the NBA protects its stars, and whether that chips away at what's fair for everyone else on the floor.   In the East, the Knicks swept the Sixers out — 25 threes, a 30-point blowout, and Knicks fans completely taking over Philly's arena. The boys break down what that team is actually capable of, and size up whoever's coming out of the Pistons-Cavs series to face them. Spoiler: neither team looks ready.   Plus: the Washington Wizards win the draft lottery, Draymond takes a shot at Charles Barkley on Inside the NBA (and the guys have some thoughts on that), Steve Kerr's Warriors extension, Jaylen Brown's $50K fine for calling out Joel Embiid on Twitch, and the Big Shout of the Week goes to a 73-year-old music teacher from England who remortgaged his house to save his neighborhood pub.   We close it out with this week's game — All-Time Playoff Runs — testing Big Shot Bob on some of the best postseason win streaks in NBA history. Does he know the Warriors' 2017 run better than he thinks? Let's find out.   Subscribe and leave us a review wherever you listen.

It's a Friday, which means it's time for another Shoot Around — the show where we throw everything at the wall and see what sticks.   Big Shot Bob himself, Robert Horry, is back in the building for Episode 132, and this one goes all over the place. We kick things off reacting to Skip Bayless returning to First Take for a one-time reunion with Stephen A. Smith. Nobody asked for it, everybody's gonna watch it — including us. But it raises a fair question: are you tuning in because you actually enjoy them, or just because it's been so long that nostalgia has you by the throat?   From there we got into what TV reunions we'd actually want to see, which somehow turned into Rob getting volunteered — live, on the spot — to host a new version of NBA Inside Stuff with Ahmad Rashad's old job. He ran with it. Like, really ran with it. The man had co-host candidates locked and loaded (Cheryl Miller, Monica McNutt, and others get a mention), a vision for the show, and apparently more enthusiasm for a job he doesn't have than the one he does. Incredible.   Then things got weird. A United Airlines plane clipped a bakery truck on the Jersey Turnpike on approach to Newark — and we had the audio. That set off a whole conversation about terrifying aviation moments, NBA team charter planes, which franchises had the nicest setups (Dallas and Portland apparently had the goods), and the time Rob was sitting next to Butter Bean on a late-night flight when the guy in front of them went completely still and his wife lost her mind thinking he was dead. Spoiler: sleep paralysis.   A listener named Richie sent in a question after a wild JP Morgan story broke this week — a guy fabricated a sexual harassment case, it went everywhere before anyone fact-checked it, and the woman got dragged online for days before the truth came out. That opened the door for Rob to share a story he's apparently never told publicly: the time a woman he didn't even know filed a false harassment claim against him with the Lakers, complete with unsolicited fan mail that's... a lot. We won't spoil the details. But it ended with Rob's lawyer sorting it out after discovering the same woman had done it to three other people.   We wrapped up with a question from Vic about the Mandalorian movie dropping near May the 4th, Star Wars fatigue, and whether Marvel is stuck in the same trap — giving away so much for free on streaming that nobody wants to pay for the theatrical version anymore. Then, naturally, it was Cinco de Mayo (Taco Tuesday edition), which meant Rob had to explain a very chaotic night in Austell, Georgia, a sombrero, a man in a full Transformer outfit, and getting home at 3 AM. Friday energy.

Seven-time NBA champion Robert Horry and co-hosts Rob Jenners and Brandon Harper welcome CBS Sports and media personality Scoop B Robinson to episode 258 of the Big Shot Bob Podcast. The three dig into the second round of the 2025 NBA Playoffs — round-by-round breakdowns, trade intel, LeBron at 41, Ant Edwards off the bench, and a game of Walmart or Waffle House to close it out.   Scoop B comes in hot with insider knowledge on the Giannis trade market — including which teams are serious, which ones are bluffing, and why Portland might be more in the conversation than anyone wants to admit. Rob gives his honest PSA to LeBron James. And Harp asks whether Robert Horry's Rockets would've still won those championships even if MJ never went to play baseball. (Spoiler: Rob has no doubts.)   Plus: the Knicks embarrass the Hawks and the Sixers in back-to-back series, Ant Edwards earns a whole new level of respect by coming off the bench and letting a teammate cook, and the guys break down why Minnesota might be the most dangerous team left standing in the playoffs.   TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Luka Doncic injury update and Lakers' real chances vs OKC The Scoop B intel on Giannis — Portland, Brooklyn, Boston, and who's actually in play Robert Horry's Rockets without MJ — the debate settles itself Knicks run through Atlanta and then Philly in Game 1 Why the Magic fell apart and what it means for their future Anthony Edwards off the bench — is this a turning point?

It's Friday and the Big Shot Bob crew is back with Episode 131 of Shoot Around — the weekly bonus show where Robert Horry, Rob Jenners, and B-Dog Brandon Harper dig into the questions YOU send in and whatever's on their minds.   This week kicks off with a debate born from the new Michael Jackson biopic hitting theaters: Start, Bench, Cut — MJ era edition. The Thriller era (1982–85), the Bad era (1987–89), and the Dangerous era (1991–94) are all on the table. Which era do you start? Which do you bench? Which do you cut? The guys break down their picks, argue over the greatest MJ music videos of all time (Smooth Criminal vs. Remember the Time), debate whether Chris Tucker was actually IN Smooth Criminal (he wasn't), and Harper goes deep on the Ghost mini-movie that almost nobody's seen. The verdict? Unanimous love for Thriller, but serious disagreement on whether Bad or Dangerous gets the bench.   Then the guys jump into the all-time greatest NBA coaches debate, sparked by Pat Riley making it clear at 81 years old that he has zero plans to retire or step aside. Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Gregg Popovich, Don Nelson, Lenny Wilkins, Red Auerbach — who makes the cut? Robert Horry gives a unique firsthand perspective on Phil Jackson, including the detail that Phil literally never spoke to him during their championship runs together. There's also the Del Harris comparison — same roster, completely different results — and what that says about coaching being as much about managing personalities as drawing up plays.   A Reddit user's anti-tanking beer pricing proposal gets a quick airing, and then the crew weighs in on Diego Pavia going undrafted after representing himself at the NFL Draft — no agent, no deal. Robert Horry reflects on firing his own agent in 2001 and what he missed out on off the court despite winning six championships, and the guys debate whether being your own representative ever actually works when you're already fighting an uphill battle.   To close things out, a fan question about the best superhero shows ever made opens up a great conversation about Invincible (currently must-watch TV), The Boys, Smallville, The Flash, Dragon Ball Z, the upcoming Mortal Kombat film, and a He-Man movie trip that Robert Horry is already planning with his son. Plus — the case for a live-action Thundercats reboot that the world is clearly not ready for.   🏀 New episodes of the Big Shot Bob Podcast drop weekly.

The NBA Playoffs are delivering chaos, history, and heartbreak — and Big Shot Bob Robert Horry, host Rob Jenners, and B-Dog Brandon Harper are breaking it ALL down on Episode 257 of the Big Shot Bob Podcast! The Orlando Magic are one win away from completing one of the most stunning upsets in NBA postseason history — knocking off the #1 seed Detroit Pistons as an 8-seed. What's gone wrong for Cade Cunningham and the Pistons, and can they save their season on home floor? Robert Horry knows something about coming back from 3-1 deficits — he lived it with the 1995 Houston Rockets.   The OKC Thunder close out the Phoenix Suns in a clean sweep, looking like the most complete team in the West. With SGA dropping 31 in the clincher and a bench that could start anywhere in the league, is anyone actually beating these guys? Then it's the Denver Nuggets fighting to stay alive against Minnesota — Joker posts a 27/16/12, Aaron Gordon goes OFF for 43 off the bench in Game 4, but the Timberwolves are healthy and hungry. Can Denver find a way? The guys debate coaching, defense, and whether the NBA owes us a Wemby vs. Jokic matchup.   In the East, the New York Knicks celebrate a Game 4 win with some famous Magic City Wings — and Lou Will has thoughts. Will Jalen Johnson step up for Atlanta in a hostile MSG environment? Robert Horry shares his perspective on why playing on the road was actually easier for him. In Philly, Joel Embiid returns from appendix surgery and the Sixers still get blown out by 32. Is it finally time for the 76ers to move on? And the Toronto Raptors have breathed life into their series against Cleveland — is Rob Jenners' "shaky branch" take looking more solid?   Plus — Victor Wembanyama goes down with a frightening fall in Game 2, misses Game 3, then comes back in Game 4 to put up a stat line only matched by Hakeem Olajuwon. His numbers? A real life category: 25+ points, 10+ rebounds, and 7+ blocks. At 22 years old. The guys close out with this year's NBA Award Winners — including the unanimous Defensive Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year, Most Improved Player, and the MVP race between Shay, Joker, and Wemby.

Robert Horry (Big Shot Bob) is back for the Friday Shoot Around bonus episode, and he's got plenty to say about the NBA's end-of-season awards race! This week the MVP finalists are officially in — Nikola Jokic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and Victor Wembanyama — and Big Shot Bob doesn't hesitate with his pick.   Plus, the crew debates whether Wembanyama could make history by winning both MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season (something only Michael Jordan has done), breaks down the Six Man of the Year and Most Improved Player finalists, and questions whether the NBA's Clutch Player of the Year award even means anything.   Then it's quiz time: can Robert Horry and Harper correctly name the top 15 best-selling NBA jerseys of the 2025–26 season? Cooper Flagg already cracking the top 10 as a rookie? Stephen Curry still at #1?! And to close things out, a fan question sparks one of the best debates of the season — Tracy McGrady, Penny Hardaway, or Grant Hill: who had the highest ceiling barring injury? Robert Horry actually played against all three and his live, on-the-spot answer might surprise you.   Topics Covered: NBA MVP finalists: Jokic, SGA & Wembanyama Can Wemby win MVP + DPOY in the same year? Six Man of the Year finalists Most Improved Player debate Clutch Player of the Year — a real award or just a participation trophy?
