MVP Race: Metrics, Team Success, and Bias

Bam Adebayo's 83 Points LIGHT UP Gil's Arena as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to Bam Adebayo dropping 83 points in the Miami Heat's win over the Washington Wizards and give their take on Bam passing Kobe Bryant for the 2nd most points scored in a game in NBA History. They discuss Bam's historic night including how the superstar center reached the mark with an NBA record 43 free throws and debate if Kobe Bryant fans deserve to be upset after Bam shattered the Black Mamba's record. Next, they break down the potential NBA Finals preview between the San Antonio Spurs & Boston Celtics where Victor Wembanyama & The Spurs took down the Celtics and give their take on Jaylen Brown's controversial double technical that got the Celtics' best player ejected before Gilbert Arenas finally gets a chance to defend his take on Jayson Tatum's return after the Superstar has looked solid in his first few games back since tearing his achilles. They then discuss the Los Angeles Clippers historic turnaround as Kawhi Leonard has carried the Clippers back to .500 and debate if moving on from James Harden was the right move to get this team back in the hunt for an NBA Championship. Finally, they react to the Los Angeles Lakers sweeping the season series against the Minnesota Timberwolves where the team improved to 10-2 in games where Luka Doncic & Austin Reaves play without LeBron James, fueling the narrative that the team is better with the King on the bench and give their savage takes on the NBA cancelling the Atlanta Hawks' Magic City promotion.
