I've been getting asked my thoughts on BamBottedBio's 83 performance. And if it was a genuine 83, a fraud 83, whatever you want to call it. Now was it a shameless 83 points? There's an argument to be made tier. But as a fan of the game of basketball, I absolutely loved it. He broke records for free throws attempted and main. Yes. That is insane. But he's playing the whistle. If you're Bad Adebayo, once you do the exact same thing, these weren't phantom fouls. These weren't fake whistles. He was getting downhill, initiating contact, and getting foul in the play every single time. Now was he hunting for it at the end of the game? Absolutely. Absolutely. Those last three, four minutes weren't real basketball. I mean, the game was over. The Heat were up 30 points, and Bam Adebayo was running routes to get open off the inbound. He was getting triple covered. He was literally running routes. Like I said, it was a game of tier, and he had game point. That's how it was. It was best basketball towards the end. Now we can get into the analytics. We can get nerdy and compare it to Kobe's 81. Which one was more real? Which one was more, you know, impactful? Let's not do that though. Because as a fan of the game, I loved watching every single minute of it. It was amazing. Shout out to coach Spoe for not subbing him out because we've gotten robbed of so many records because players get subbed out early. And I get it. You no what? I'm getting hurt. It makes sense. I'm not hating on that. I just love the fact that Spoe kept him in the game because he gave the fans exactly what they wanted. And this is another reminder to casual fans that there's really levels to this stuff. Bam Adebayo, known for being a pain protector or defensive tier. Better stopped 83 points. You're not getting a bucket in an NBA game, bro.
