Bob McADOO & Michael Cooper Talk Trash & Tell NBA Stories

[@brianpearis9733]

It's good to see Bob McAdoo like this I didn't know he was like this I love it

[@SavageSPK]

I am a huge lifelong Boston Celtics fan who grew up watching Larry Bird versus Michael Cooper. I absolutely love your show, Coop and I NEVER miss an episode! Celtics and Showtime forever!

[@fideltorres6380]

You guys are right, this new generation is soft its even embarrassing...lol.

[@pputnam100]

Good lord, Bob's jumper is forever imprinted in my memory, that unusual release, almost looked two handed; mainly those Buffalo years, Bob Kaufman, Ernie D feeding Bob all night long. Nobody could stop Bob, not Cowens, not Kareem, just too good offensively, and it's so true, he could just do pretty much anything he wanted to do. An all time great player. So true, as tough as Cowens was there was nothing he could do with Bob. Miss the old great guys, bummer for me is that some of the greats like Bob start to fall off the radar

[@dbc7772011]

Fellow Braves fan! McAdoo, Ernie D, some exciting years at The Aud!

Facts

[@josephpinkney1708]

Bob McAdoo is funny. Cooper is real. Man I love this it make tear come from my eyes.

[@teegotgunz76]

I'm lovin' this. Laker Legends. I always talking to my nephews about how great Showtime was and how the haven't seen real basketball! Keep double what you're doing Coop! I love the pod cast

[@willoneil1456]

Bob is hilarious. A Scoring Machine.

[@maiyicheng]

LoL I can listen to Bob talk all day!

[@morthedgebuckle227]

Love Bob Mcadoo

[@fideltorres6380]

Good one Coop👍🏽😂🏀

[@RemoWilliams1227]

I guess it's just because I'm such a fan but these lift me up in the best way possible. The joy in their voices, the comraderie, it's like chicken n' dumplins for my heart.

[@MonsterDeplorable]

Look how genuinely happy Coop is, to have Bob on the show. That’s friendship

[@tellthetruthg]

saw McAdoo put up 50+ when he was with Buffalo against the W's . He was a great shooting big man.

[@CLNS_Nick]

I’m jealous

[@segaltucson]

Great show! Stuck at home with Covid but I feel like a lot better after listening to Coop talking to legend MCADOO.

[@dbc7772011]

McAdoo interview is the best! Love it. He speaks the unfiltered truth! New appreciation for him and Coop.

[@TimrodRa]

Old school hoopers. The era I'm connected with. This was good. They like my parents age.

[@StevenC32]

Bob McAdoo was my favorite player when I first started watching the NBA during the mid 70s when he played for the Buffalo Braves. Dr. Jack Ramsey coached that team that also had Randy Smith. McAdoo led the NBA in scoring and rebounding one year and won the MVP. He was the best shooting big man back in the 70s.

[@Dbusdriver71]

I believe he won the scoring title a few times, only topped by Maravich in 77 I think. The players today should be thankful that McAdoo didn't have a three point line in the 70s; he would be the leader in 3 point shooting. A side not; McAdoo is cool; Cooper is cold, a master thief.

[@StevenC32]

@@Dbusdriver71 McAdoo led the league in scoring 3 times. He led the league in scoring and rebounding in 1975, the year he won the MVP.

[@Dbusdriver71]

@@StevenC32 Thanks for the info. His name came up a lot during the 70s. Was it New Jersy that then rookie coach Pat Riley traded for him from?

[@StevenC32]

@@Dbusdriver71 Yes, he kind of bounced around after leaving the Knicks, he played for Boston, Detroit and then the New Jersey Nets before going to the Lakers. He won 2 championships with the Lakers backing up Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. I was glad to see him win a ring, even if it was in a backup role. I was really happy to see him get inducted into the Hall of Fame too.

[@Dbusdriver71]

@@StevenC32 Me to. I spent more time in the Forum than I did in School. I was very pleased for Bob. To me, Bob's most famous play wasn't offensive; it was the block of Dr. J in the 82 Finals game 6. He should have been amongst the NBAs 50 Greatest but somehow wasn't. Bob is still cool!

[@conradtoney2987]

Michael this is Conrad your high school mate man now that I know you got a podcast I'm watching every day man I'm so proud of the man you've become you was always a gentle peaceful soul. I'm back living in my birth county Guyana South America love you man

[@jefffinlayson3002]

The talk about trainers, lol! And McAdoo's "Snow time" comment about Buffalo.

[@toddgoza3522]

Coop a die hard lakers fan through and through

[@teegotgunz76]

I got nothing but big respect for Showtime. Yall set the standards for Greatness. Yall beat Boston on their floor! Showtime was the baddest dudes to ever do it. Nobody ever entertained me like that.

[@mrc302]

Very cool. Really like these.👍

[@NBAHistoryCLNS]

Many more to come. Have hours of McaDoo busting balls lol😂

Wow he said Bird Avery. I'm from Hoptown KY. Also. He was known as a legend. He Bird would ref our dirt bowl summer league in the 90s. I grew up on stories bout Bird Avery 18:24. Bird Avery Kentucky Colonels

MCADOO AND RANDY QUICK SMITH WAS GOOD LOOK TO SEE WITH RUN & GUN STYLE OF PLAYING

[@tyreewhite6653]

Hey Mr. Cooper !

[@johnnyguitarwatson5288]

Should have asked about Detroit: LEON THE BARBER! MCADOO ALWAYS CAME UP WITH A INJURY WHEN THE LAKERS PLAYED THE PISTONS IN THOSE DAYS!

[@andytucker6783]

Just got my 10 year old son a Nintendo switch with the new NBA 23 game. I'm teaching him about the old Lakers before lebron n Kobe ✌️

[@brachio1000]

McAdoo's a mixture of guff and wisdom.

10th like =) ....Love you Coop ! Mac too! OOO , BTW , I am writting a book about Larry Bird and it has all you guys in the NBA at the time , especially MY Lakers ! It's called " I'm STILL pissed Larry Bird ! ". ... From a Laker fan who used to hate you ! ". Will be finished inside a year now. From sum-1 who disliked Larry Joe enough to NOT watch him , when he played. Then , caught up on youtube...years later..... is the basic premise but has much more to it. Love see'n you on here Coop ! You've been a fav player of mine for a long-ass time .

[@elvispresley5921]

I can't just leave a comment & split. I may never get this chance again & I'm just HOPING you read a few comments Coop , lol. But i have to say.... THANK YOU GUYS FOR SOME OF THE BEST NBA MEMORIES OF MY LIFE-TIME ! TY TY TY TY TY TYVM !

[@sergiocoxsr.6855]

Lakernation!!!! Real ones know.

[@Edd1e8]

Coop bringing up ML Carr again lol.. I with Coop would have him on his show. Hated that guy too

[@NBAHistoryCLNS]

Good idea. I’ll reach out to ML

[@leoderosia9279]

Mac was a great player in 70s but Celtics usually beat the braves

[@kwabenarasuli8108]

CJ McCullough also said that they don't like it. He shared how the players like him and Lilliard even called it off some times

[@johnnythekid4601]

Coop Vs Kobe when coop was in his prime... Does he stop kobe?

[@NBAHistoryCLNS]

He def frustrates him. The physicality too. Kobe would have his hands full w coop. I’ll ask him that next time we record. It’s a great question.

[@Edd1e8]

Nobody stops him, but I think Coop is longer and quicker than Tony Allen who Kobe said was the toughest to guard him. Keep in mind Coop was probably the best of all time coming off screens due to his skinny frame. He would often slip through them and didn’t have to switch his man often

[@leoderosia9279]

Coop would give kb a hard time, Celtic fan

[@pureuncutlakers1010]

Wonderful show!!! Rob Pelinka and the current Lakers would do well to watch. The 80s team changed as players got older but they generally remained the same, year in, year out. They had a chemistry that every other team was trying to catch up to, forget talent, CHEMISTRY!! The way the current Lakers flip a roster, they dont get it. And yes, it absolutely appeared as if the players genuinely liked each other.

[@NBAHistoryCLNS]

Cannot believe the lakers 0-5. Gotta find big games james reactions from last nights loss lol😂
