I asked Kyrie Irving last night about the challenges of facing a Bam Adebayo led defense: “If you can score on Bam, you feel you can score on anybody, just because he’s that great on the defensive end.”

Stephen A Smith on people blaming Bam Adebayo for scoring 83: “Bam is a pretty damn good player. Let’s not blame him… I’m not blaming him for it. I’m blaming the game, the Miami Heat, the Wizards, I’m not blaming him. Bam Adebayo can ball! He’s not a scrub! It wasn’t equal to Kobe performance, to Wilt Chamberlain performance, none of that. That is absolutely true but this a day he deserves to be celebrated!” (Via First Take)

Carmelo Anthony on Bam 83: "I don't care how everybody felt about his 83, he got 83. If you ever played this game before you know how hard it is to score 10, 20 points. 83 points I don't care who record he breaks. Bam I take my hat off to you. 83 you deserve to keep that sign. Don't let anybody take that away from you. Listen when its time to grab the moment, you go grab it. Bam grabbed history. Its 83 points in a NBA game. WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT!"

Danny Green on Bam Adebayo 83 point game: “I didn’t get a chance to watch it live, so when I’m looking at the score I was covering a game. I was like oh sh*t, I know Bam and his people, I’m like, Bam about to do something special. Looking at the third quarter, I’m like, there is no way he stays in the whole game. Like, he can probably get 60 but he is up 20,30 they going to have to sit him out. He stayed in the whole game, he kept going. And I’m like, oh sh*t he got to 80 then 83. I was happy for him, I was genuinely happy for the guy.” (Via No Fouls Given)

Bam Adebayo on if he’d trade his 83-point game for a DPOY: “I don’t know if I could at this point. That was a special brand of basketball to me. Obviously that looks different to everybody else but 83 points in a game has shifted everybody mindset to how they look at me play now. It’s like ‘oh he defends but he’s really a two way guy.’ To me that 83 when you see that, It sounds ridiculous. It shocked people.” (via NBA Courtside)

Gabe Vincent defends Bam Adebayo’s 83 point game: “Why is it a problem to score more than Kobe? He gotta shoot more turn around or what? If there was more step backs and crossovers and he had 83 would you like it more? — it’s not easy to put up 83 points in a gym by yourself. I gotta tip my hat. We still don’t have footage of Wilt… Obviously Bam is my guy but I feel for him from the backlash he got.” (via Numbers On The Board, h/t Heat Central)

Draymond Green says Bam was the RIGHT person to go score 83 points: “You know what I got to say? Shout out to Coach Spo. I got love for Coach Spo for that! So many times you see coaches take out players when you have the lead for sportsmanship, F*CK THAT…. Shout out to Bam. 83 on all the haters! Should it have been Bam? Should it have been somebody else? NO. It was exactly who it was supposed to be. The dude who went and got the points. Shout out to Bam. 83 of them.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Rich Paul says you are ‘sick’ if you’re trying to discredit Bam scoring 83 points 👀 “I don’t understand the pushback I’m hearing. I got up this morning and hear all this yelling about why they are trying to discredit Bam… 83 points from a guy that’s not known as this type of scorer. Bam is a 25&12, 20&15 defense first. He doesn’t even look for that. He’s a team fist guy and will do whatever it takes to win. When a guy like that gets an opportunity to do what he did last night, for someone to have a problem with that, they’re sick. There’s a real issue here” (Via Game Over)

Chet Holmgren was asked if he scored 83 the exact same way Bam did, if he would feel bad: “Would I feel bad? HELL NO. I’ve seen a lot of discourse on it too, there’s no right way or wrong way to score 83. If you could score 83 every single player would say ‘I don’t care how I have to do it. I would do it.’ Credit to him for making that happen” (Via Gil’s Arena)

Olden Polynice says if Bam truly wanted to respect his idol Kobe Bryant, he wouldn’t have broken 81 points: “For Bam to say Kobe is his hero, but there is a video of him saying ‘don’t foul’, so I have to give him credit for that. If you really wanted to be respectful, sub your ass out the game. I would’ve respected him so much more if he tied the 81, and sat down. That would’ve been some gangster stuff. Now, that’s a tribute to your hero” Again, this is more of a KOBE BRYANT issue than Bam simply scoring 83 issue. (Via Byron Scott Fast Break)

Tyronn Lue had a great quote about Bam Adebayo’s 83-point performance and some of the criticism around it: “He shouldn't listen to it. He scored 83 points. It's Wilt, Bam, Kobe. It doesn't matter what people are talking about or saying. It's stupid. He got the record, no matter how he did it, or second best behind the 100. However he did it, whatever happened, he scored 83 points. That's something that's hard to do, no matter if you're playing against a high school team, a junior high team, 83 points is a lot of points. So I'm very happy for Bam, very happy for Spo, it was a great night for Miami.”
