Big Shot Bob – Ep 183 – Who He Coach For?

With B-Dog running late as we start the big show, Rob jokes about how a Raisin truck wrecked and took him out one week on his way home, which seems like the most implausible excuse ever. Oh and basketball is BACK and Rob is already working back in the studio, and we get right into whether Bronny is ready for the show or not. We all seem to agree that he isn’t ready, Rob thinks he still gets the pass to play early in the season, and is hopeful that this push to get him to play with LeBron doesn’t set him back in his career development. Plus Rob weighs in on JJ’s interaction with the media regarding the questions about Rui, being combative like he was on First Take, and uses the opportunity to tell us how Rui will fit into the Lakers lineup this season. And it wouldn’t be a wild week of college football upsets if we didn’t dance on Rob’s grave after Alabama’s epic loss to Vanderbilt, and we have some laughs with the audio of Diego Pavia after the game and how much money he just made for himself. Pat Bev also chimes in on the “disrespect” for Doc Rivers which cracks Rob up, as the played for Phil Jackson in his prime and the comparison of Doc and Phil is wildly unwarranted. That also segues us into Pat’s take on Ben Simmons and how none of us have any expectations for him on the floor. And the early betting odds are out for who could win Coach of the Year… and we don’t even KNOW some of these guys, leading us to play an impromptu game of “Who He Coach For?” And we round out the show with discussion of Caitlin Clark winning Rookie of the Year, the heated rivalry between the Dodgers and Padres this week, a very cool Big Shot of the Week… and to honor Kirk Cousins doing his post-Thursday interview from the parking lot of a Waffle House, it’s another edition of Walmart or Waffle House!
