Had a blast filming a podcast with my friend and showtime teammate! Thank you all for subscribing and viewing!
Crazy that James Worthy could break his leg his rookie year and still have the quickest first step in NBA history. Unreal
These showtime interviews are pure money
Balloon story at the end was funny
My favorite player of all time. James Big Game Worthy. Respect to both you brother's. 🏆💯
James Worthy is my favorite showtime laker. had a serious massive run. Critical piece to the franchise. Straight up legend
Growing up in LA and growing up with you two is a blessing. The Lakers were in our living room almost every night of the week. You guys are like family.
I still to this day can't watch that 84 finals against the Celtics. We had it and let it slip away. Great interview.
Shout out Big game James and Byron Showtime forever baby 🏀
First off, love these guys and loved trying to emulate their every move on a BB floor waaay back in high school. My entire high school basketball team idolized these guys so much that we were the Lakers for a day. During homecoming week the school had "dress-up" days, superhero day, nerd day, etc. Obviously on nerd day the whole team dressed up as the Celtics, then on superhero day, the Lakers. Keep in mind this is rural Idaho in 1987 and there was not a single person of color in the entire school. We made our own jerseys and went full black face except for the one guy on the team with glasses who was of course Kurt Rambis. Obviously we realize how wrong the blackface was now but at the time we thought nothing of it and just wanted to emulate our idols. Again, love these guys and the rest of showtime Lakers, what a great time to be a kid watching the reinvention of an entire sport.
Two of my basketball heroes. B, thank you for these interviews. I grew up in the SFV. I could only listen to the home games on KLAC with Chickey Baby. Away games on KCal 9.
I remember the Freddie Brown play like it was yesterday. My brother cried after that game! We were born and raised in DC. Great interview!
You guys are hilarious. I am seriously laughing out loud! 😂😂😂
From 1985-1989 James was untouchable
Great interview! I miss the 80s Showtime Lakers!...and that balloon story was hilarious!! 😂🤣
Just looking at these Laker legends!! 🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
I have not watched a full Laker game since Worthy retired. Even when Kobe and Shaq were together. My greatest NBA memories as a child were all the great battles against the Celtics. Cried every time they lost in the Finals, but I NEVER wavered until Showtime’s light were turned off. Cheers to Coach B and great lead off guest with Big Game James! Showtime Laker fan for life! 🤙🏽
#42 Big Game James... I Love that balloon story
Love my L A. Lakers
Two giants... I learned to like the Lakers due to these guys - together with the other ShowTime legends (Magic, Abdul-Jabbar, Green, Ramis, Cooper... etc.). Wow! Greetings from Sao Paulo, Brazil.
