Biggest asterisk in NBA history. Stat Padebayo is a disgrace to sportsmanship and the most unethical garbage I've ever seen in pro sports. NBA wants to know why it's dying, just look at the reaction to this infamous game. Everyone is sick and tired of modern NBA
The Wizards were attempting to double and triple team him by the end of the 4th quarter. Do these people even watch the things they get paid to talk about?
It is a disgrace the lowest point in NBA history the game of basketball right now is trash competition is out of the window add to that Steve Kerr asked the league to play fewer games no wonder why MJ slapped his ass SMH 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Y'all are ignoring what these guys are sayin. Wiz could've done better when he was hitting 31 in the 1st qtr, could've triple/quadruple-teamed him when the 80 pts+ was threatening to become reality, could've not fouled him repeatedly while he was driving to the basket. They at least tried to foul other Heat players so he wouldn't get the ball. Also, he could've missed all those shots, but he didn't.
“It’s 83…no matter what.” It won’t matter because of what they did. Forgettable
As many complaints as we have about this era of the NBA, I don’t think it matters which era this 83-point performance happened in….the game soured in the 4th, and we’ll remember that.
Kobe is the only 70+ point game we care about, because every point mattered
It wasn’t fucking basketball. Nobody fouls up 20 lol. You just let them walk by and score. Then Dribble it out. Missing free throws and fouling isn’t a good thing in normal basketball and that’s what I want to see when I watch BASKETBALL
Battle of the gasbags: HERE the Wizzers were trying to stop him. Another Talking head watched the entire game and laughed. Another TH called it the Strahan game. (I added Myles) Another TH gave examples of a tanking team, TRYING to MAKE him score.
Another TH gave examples of what Spo did that he's NEVER done. It won't be before other teams collude to get a guy a hundo. Will the NBA investigate. I'm NOT a laker fan / Kobe dude.
This was an embarrassing show… I’m surprised at their cognitive dissonance. It’s about how Bam did it, not about who did it and the fact that he dethroned Kobe for 2nd place. You can’t shoot under 50% from the field and 32% from 3 while taking 43 free throws and still be respected. The fact that he was given the green light to take 22 3pt’s is a disgrace. And Dan Patrick’s show, just like the basketball show on ESPN, showed no objectivity because of fear of the NBA not taking providing them with talent to be interviewed. Stop worrying about what the players will say and tell the truth. Last night was a disgrace!
I miss the days of Larry Bird. On February 18, 1985 Larry almost achieved a quadruple double against the Utah Jazz. Larry had 30pts, 12reb, 10assists, and 9steals after 3 quarters of play. Larry took himself out of game with the Celtics up 90-66. When asked why he didn't re-enter the game Larry said, "I already did enough damage." Respect.
This was a disgrace to the game of basketball, like why the hell were they fouling when they up by 20+? This just solidifies the NBA's stat padding era.
The Wizards CAME TO PLAY. The only quarter that they were really man-handled was the 1st quarter, and they put up 29 points. It just so happens that the Heat scored 40. But the Wizards had a higher FG percentage and a higher 3-pt percentage for the game. That guy Sarr couldn't be stopped. The Heat were without 4 KEY players: Herro, Powell, Wiggins and Ware. They were also without Jovic, but I don't count him because he has been ass-cheeks the whole year. So basically, the only other big man the Heat had on the bench was a guy they called up from G-league, Vlad Goldin. So, Bam HAD to play.

Did you guys even watch the game? Can’t take your opinions seriously. Disgraceful. The game is a joke

But there wasn’t the 3 point shot when Wilt was playing either so I think that even makes his better
Dan doesn't watch the game and then does dogshit research for the segment but ends up talking for 12 minutes about it. Yikes.
Him scoring 60 in his final game is not as good. It was his last game on a fairwell tour, obviously he was going to get the ball most of the game.

Kobe did the same thing his last game with the Lakers by jacking up shots left and right.
Kobe was praised, yet Bam is criticized.

its just not a legit 83

Weakest 83 point game in nba history.
Love how everyone wants to discredit Wilts record ..this era of sports and the sports media is pure trash.
Records are meant to be broken
43 free throws, really? Stop the insanity.

They were intentionally fouls with a 20+ point lead. They missed their own free throws on purpose. 🤷🏻♂️ it’s trash 😂
And he probably wont even make it into the hall of fame,
or is the NBA now obligated to allow him in just for that stat?
Bam Adebayo is an unlikely candidate to break Kobe's 81pts record.
