He embarrassed the Heat organization. He embarrassed all of sports. He He diminished all of sports last night. He He exposed what is wrong with the National Basketball Association. What's wrong with the whole player empowerment deal?
I I know you should celebrate. It was a great accomplishment. I I last night when this thing happened, I started calling the basketball people in my life just to check my sanity. I started texting them. I texted Willie Clark. Willie Clark's my best friend from high school. Willie Clark, hardcore NBA guy. Willie Clark's been an NBA junkie for 50 years. Embarrassed last night. disgusted last night has finally given up on the NBA.
I texted Fred BS grew up one of my best family members grew up with him like a cousin my entire life. Freddy and Bubby think like, hey man, that was disgraceful. Freddy, if you guys remember, his son Jordan used to come on the show, the kid from Purdue. And so I wanted to get a take from, you know, like a kid's perspective, a young person's perspective. And of course, I got exactly what I was expecting. He's too young to know any damn thing. His daddy raised him, right? But he doesn't he's he's one of these young people. And so he wouldn't condemn what happened last night. Wanted to give it credit.
You got to appreciate, you know, 83 points. No matter how he came about it, he came about it because the uh Washington Wizards are tanking [snorts] and the NBA and the people in charge from Pat Riley, I will include to Eric Spolster. They have no control over these young people. Hey, give me anything they want. Bam wants 10 scoops of ice cream before having dinner. Well, we don't want to make Bam unhappy. Give him 11 scoops. So, they started plotting at I think Bam had 43 points at halftime and they get there and hey man, we can denigrate Kobe Bryant. We can denigrate the entire NBA. Let's go for it. The Washington Wizards are tanking the games a bore. We're going to kill them. We are killing them. Let's just go for it. And so they just started feeding Bam the ball.
This is Bam out of bio, nine-year NBA player, averages 16 points for his career. 19 points this season. And now he has scored the second most points in the history of the NBA in a single game. Kobe Bryant's 81point night was damn near as legendary as Wilt Chamberlain's 100point night. Do Do you get Wilt Chamberlain an all-time great NBA player, a freak of nature, Kobe Bryant, an all-time great player, a freak of nature? Bam out of bio. You know what he was famous for before this debacle last night? Dating Asia Wilson.
This game will live will live in infamy because of what it exposed. But no one is sitting around talking about, "Oh, what an incredible performance." No, there this is a BAM shame. This is I'm going to analogize this game, this performance to women's high school basketball. I don't know how many of you remember this, but uh Cheryl Miller scored 105 points in a women's high school basketball game, the the all-time great Cheryl Miller. And in 1990, as a high school junior, Lisa Leslie, hell of a college and pro basketball player, but she decided as a high school junior at Morningside High, that she would make an attempt at breaking Cheryl Miller's 105 point scoring record in high school. And Lisa Lesley scored 101 points in 16 minutes of the first half. 101 points. The opposing team, South Torrance High School, refused to come out and play in the second half out of embarrassment. The referees gave South Torrren like two technical fouls to start the second half trying to force them to come out and play. They had Lisa Leslie shoot the technical foul free throws and she hit all four, got herself to 105 points. But in the aftermath, they wrote, "Hey, those points are no good. We're wiping them off the slate. You did not tie uh Lisa Leslie. You did not break this record. You embarrassed yourself. You embarrassed the opposition. They refused to come out and play. I think the score was like 102 to 24. There was a 102 points scored by Morningside High School. Lisa Lesley scored 101 of them. No one remembers or recalls. No one thinks she accomplished anything. It's meaningless. That's what's going to happen to Bam Adabio in his 83 point night.
Who? I believe it was Robert Ory. Do we have the clip? Robert Ory said there should be an asterk by this 83 point night. Play the clip. >> 83 from Bam Adabio. >> Oh my goodness. I you know it was one of those things you have to see. I heard 43 [laughter] s shot shots 43 free throws. I'm like and then you I saw some highlights you know if y'all notice when the show [music] came back I was looking at the highlights and bam. I'm like let me just say this 83 points is impressive you know but [music] it gets to a point where you have to respect the game and I think there was moments in this game where it [music] was not respected but still though 83 points is a lot. I appreciate the effort and it's going to go down as we know second most of the game but it's like you always say on certain things just have asterk about it. I'm putting aster. [music] It's still a lot. I'm not taking away anything. Bam. It's a lot.
Bam. Out of bio should renounce this 83 point night. You don't do this to Kobe Bryant. You don't do this to all the great players that have come before you and set the table for you to make all of this money. You have respect for the game and for the people that laid the foundation. You don't denigrate their accomplishments with a gimmick because the Washington Wizards are tanking and because to entertain yourself, you go for some break. You're up 25 30 points in the fourth quarter and your teammates are filing the Wizards to create possessions for you to break this record. You're a forward slash center who shot 22 three-point attempts.
