Joseph George is a sports analyst for Silver Bulletin and basketball analytics consultant for the NBA G League’s Mexico City Capitanes. This episode of Remember That Game made for a really fun chat about analytics in politics and basketball, particularly that revolution in the 2012-2020 period. What better game as a jumping off point than an interesting night for the three-point discourse, as two catalysts of this movement take the stage and one of them goes historically cold.

• Perception of analytics in politics and basketball after Trump’s upset win and while the NBA transformed into a league more reliant on the 3
• How the Rockets and Warriors of the 2010s ushered in the current era
• Evolution of the American public’s relationship with analytics in both politics and basketball this decade, now seven NBA titles and two presidential elections in
• Whether these the two best teams of the 2010s
• How Daryl Morey’s obsession with spacing started way before James Harden
• Is compiling stats and wins December-February less instructive than it used to be for identifying the best teams and players, in the era of tanking and load management.
• With various popped Achilles in the 2025 postseason, what to do about regular season length
• Would the Rockets have won if Chris Paul stayed healthy, and did this game impact the load management discussion both over a season and within a series
• Morey’s idea to pair Chris Paul with James Harden
• Harden playing off Clint Capela was working a bit, should they have pulled off the gas a bit with the 3s and worked that two-man game for high percentage shots?
• Houston goes 7-for-44 from three
• James Harden 2-for-13
• Eric Gordon 2-for-12
• How important was Eric Gordon in this series? Does it get to 7 without him?
• Gordon deal in 2016 turned out great for Daryl Morey and the Rockets
• How influential that 2016 offseason was with the money going around that summer
• Did Houston need to lean more on Gordon getting to the rim in Game 7
• Impact on the discourse: All the missed 3s that game + Game 7 on the other side of the bracket w/ Celtics going cold from deep against Cleveland
• Would the Rockets had won this with someone who could do more work in the post or at the elbow like say, Hakeem Olajuwon?
• And what the NBA could do to reconcile the analytically optimal vs the aesthetic interests of the oldheads. (Hakeem Olajuwon is the absolute favorite YouTube watch for Thomas when it comes to old basketball clips.)
• Could the value of a Zach Randolph-type cycle back organically like the run game has in the NFL, as teams adapt so far in one direction and leave themselves vulnerable to a zag?
• What’s the potential for a meta shift 2026-2030 in the NBA?
• This the twilight of the free agent super-team era? And whether seeing Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Klay Thompson pick each other up during scoring draughts made Joseph more or less amenable to the second apron

More episode threads: 

• Super Bowl XXXVIII Box Score: New England Patriots 32, Carolina Panthers 29 (Pro Football Reference)
• Is this Super Bowl a more proper analog for LX than the previous Patriots-Seahawks SB?
• I’ll reference the Panthers-Rams ‘03 game we did and whether it was just house money for you at that point as a fan coming from 1-15
• Belichick-Milloy break-up on even of season and losing 31-0 to Buffalo Week 1
  • Then cap regular season 31-0. Weirdest Week 1 result for any SB team in recent memory?
• Is the 2003 NFL meta on the march, and is that part of why we’re getting a Super Bowl LX matchup of teams that went from missing playoffs to the Super Bowl for the first time in 22 years?
  • Is that also why it kept happening in that era (Rams-Titans, Giants-Ravens so 3 of the 6 to ever happen) or could the dramatic upward and downward mobility of teams in that era be attributed to other things?
  • Defenses striking back in a manner similar to 2000-2003 stretch? 3 of top 5 all-time units in ppg w/ 2000 BAL, 2000 TEN, and 2002 TB
• Was there a distinct moment in your memory where you remember feeling cooked, and conversely when you believed the Panthers could pull it off?
• Is there a little Delhomme in Darnold?
  • And what to make of the quarterbacks famous for melting down. How much is it just being high-variance or streaky, or having weaknesses that some teams are equipped to hammer. Opposed to purely the mental that they’re cooked for the day: Delhomme nears halftime 1/9 for 1 yd with sack fumble yet pulls out of the tail dive.
• John Fox and Dan Henning must establish the run and stop the run as a life philosophy….but little room for Stephen Davis early. They do keep with it and spring one on the last offensive play in the half to reach FG range. 14-10. Nowadays how much is the meta shifting back to size, defense, and run game…. in more of a 2003 fashion?
  • How much does this game in an almost bipolar fashion showcase both the early 2000s brand of SB-winning football and then in other fits also what we’ll see post-2004? How much is this owed to the way this game was officiated from the start (called much tighter in pass coverage than in the conference championships to the dismay of Colts and Eagles fans)
• Dan Henning said he doesn’t have an opening script for Delhomme and gives him a lot of freedom for Delhomme, Smith, and Muhammad to feel it out once they get to the line essentially. Could you imagine Kyle Shanahan. And of course Brady would only gain more control
  • It seems like the meta’s also shifted toward playcaller than the quarterback in recent years. Does it seem like it will continue that way, and how different was the era back then circa ‘03?
  • Is this part of why Delhomme kept starting the half cold before heating up?
  • Also do we see Brady staples post-Weiss that day? I was getting some 2018 playoff run vibes from how they countered a DL that can get upfield and seen to have advantage (vs Chargers, SB vs Rams come to mind)
• Investing high picks vs FA bargains / reclamations / general tire kicking
  • QB investment a very different calculation for franchises in the early aughts. Doubtful the first 10 picks will be that QB-light in the latter 2020s, but could we see teams grow more reticent to take or trade up for QBs early in the draft relative to the past 15 years. Move in the direction of the ‘03 meta here?
• Anatomy of a touchdown: Why it worked
  • Brady touchdowns off play-action to Branch, Givens, and Vrabel
  • DeShaun Foster TD
    • Side Q: Eugene Wilson looking like he whiffed with the Madden hit stick that would be introduced that calendar year 2004, good/bad feature? Your fav/least fav Madden feature adds for that era?
  • Delhomme bombs to Smith and Muhammad, beating the blitz to Proehl
    • Side Q: Does it get anymore post-Y2K NFL than Ricky Proehl and Jermaine Wiggins. Rod “He Hate Me” Smart carrying the XFL legacy in kick returns? (poorly, accurately?)
• Anatomy of a turnover:
  • Brady fooled, panicked? On hideous RZ INT.
  • Delhomme strip-sacked by Mike Vrabel
    • Mike Vrabel-style LBs. Did it seem like those peaked in 2000s, but are also kinda makin a comeback?
• Color commentator Phil Simms in the Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame with some great pre-production nuggets on the Patriots and his old Giants colleague Bill Belichick, who I guess being taught some sort of first ballot lesson by voters for the other Pro Football Hall of Fame
• Remiss in a mention of the halftime show. Memories of the live broadcast there. Started with a get out the vote PSA! Choose to Vote. Then Jessica Simpson says Houston choose to party and some other stuff happens after that. We used to have programs to begin it or themes for every Super Bowl halftime. Maybe what aged well, not well. Also some guy got inspired to start YouTube.
• CBS Vision: They had like a 360 matrix bullet cam thing going on, and called it CBS Vision. Did we like it or nah, at the time and looking back. Also, are there any 2000s NFL broadcast flourishes we miss, or good riddance, or can’t get over in some way.
• Favorite Panthers from that year.
  • And did Dan Morgan seem like the straw that stirred the drink for Carolina defense when healthy in sort of a Bob Sanders way. As in not the HoFer with the unit but did it all just start to click with him in. And job you think he’s done as GM.
• Did the Brady GW drive and Vinatieri when it counts, how inevitable did that feel watching it so early in Brady’s career? Panthers the cardiac cats that year

The ’96 Jaguars rebound from a 4–7 start, surge through December, and carry that confidence into Rich Stadium against a Bills (AFC) dynasty that just didn't lose at Rich Stadium and a nucleus still intact with Bruce Smith, Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, and the K-Gun. What follows is a collision of influential styles. Really fun convo!

Remember That Game is a podcast about sporting events that take you on a journey and chart the path of the zeitgeist. Check out Steve’s show Check The Mic with Steve Palazzolo & Sam Monson at The 33rd Team.

Episode threads:

We weave these in with key moments from the game, along with lead-up and aftermath.

• ‘25 Jags bounce back midseason and red-hot thru December, get you nostalgic for ‘96? How did that roster get so good so quick, and what clicked for Brunell and Co. to rally from 4-7?
• How you became a Jaguars fan up in New England the dual rise of these teams in ‘96.
• Is the Week 17 Morten Andersen miss the most shocking way a team has ever clinched a playoff spot? And would that have seemed too unlikely and dramatic even for a 90s Disney sports flick?
• Best home playoff record all-time is the Bills at Rich Stadium entering ‘96. Nucleus is still intact and we see it early with Kelly-to-Thomas for the opening score. But an aging nucleus. How intimidating were the Bills to you at that point? How well did that Jacksonville roster stack up? Confident about Boselli vs. Bruce?
• What went right for the ‘95 expansion squads that didn’t for Browns in ‘99 or Texans in ‘02? How much the fast ascent of the Jags and Panthers is owed to better decisions, and how much is it owed to better environment. If the NFL adds two expansion teams someday, should the league find ways to make more quality veterans available to expansion teams, and also afford more cap flexibility to help them lift off? What would be your approach?
• Is it over without that Clyde Simmons pick-six stabilizing things early? Your “it’s so over/we’re so back” journey during the game and where you watched.
• Teal having a moment in 95 with the expansion Jags and Charlotte Hornets. GOAT jerseys? And is the mid-90s NFL aesthetic broadly superior to the ensuing decades?
• Is there a modern Natrone Means comp? Is that kind of big bruising RB critical to playoff success? Not that these guys comp to Means specifically, but is there wisdom to feeding like a Pacheco or a Shonn Greene that suddenly becomes super valuable in January. Is there something real to that, in the ‘90s and or 2020s?
• Players on the ‘96 Jags that need more Hall of Fame love. And how much of Coughlin’s case should come from his Jacksonville years. Kevin Gilbride, the K-Gun, and this game as a collision of styles that influenced the modern game.
• The level of control at the line that Brunell and especially Kelly have in adjusting to defenses (along with WRs Smith/McCardell/Reed/Early on sight adjustments and option routes), it seems in recent years that playcallers have taken more control back. Would it help offenses in 2026 to put more pre- and post-snap control back on the QB’s plate?
• Is what the Bills did with 4 consecutive SB appearances less likely to happen again than a first Super Bowl threepeat? Is that an underrated accomplishment?
• Jags knock off Bills and Broncos back-to-back. Patriots eject the Steelers. And there’s no Cowboys or Niners on the other side of the bracket in CC. We get fresh faces in the Super Bowl. Did that make the ‘96 postseason more exhilarating and how did it change the way you thought about the NFL?

It’s October 1985. Cardinals vs. Royals. World Series, Game 6. Remember That Game is the podcast about sporting events that take you on a journey—and sometimes chart the path of the zeitgeist along the way. I’m your host, Thomas Emerick, joined by Marshall Garvey, author of Interstate 85: The Royals, The Cardinals, and the Show-Me World Series.

• Why the 1985 Cardinals-Royals matchup felt unlikely and why pundits missed the signs
• Missouri vs. Missouri: geography, rail lines, I-70, and growing the pie for a state
• How two very different baseball styles defined the 1980s and collided in this series
• The stacked contenders who didn’t make the playoffs in 1985
• Old rules determining homefield and DH in MLB playoffs
• John Tudor’s dominance, Brett Saberhagen’s youth, and a Game 7 collision course
• Dan Quisenberry, George Brett, Ozzie Smith, Willie McGee, and the razor-thin margins of elite October baseball
• Don Denkinger’s call, Whitey Herzog’s reaction, and pre- vs. post-instant replay
• Pinch hitters, unlikely heroes, David Letterman, and why Buddy Biancalana keeps showing up at the biggest moments
• What the 1985 World Series tells us about 1980s baseball, Midwest culture, and why no team repeated as champs that decade

They talk about watching both games 30 years apart, how the ‘95 rally helped save baseball in Seattle, and what it was like living through the city’s first true baseball fever. Smith reflects on Griffey’s brilliance, Edgar’s clutch double, and the electricity of the Kingdome, plus how that run set the stage for a new stadium, a new era, and the experience in emergent Seattle in the 1990s when he became the country's youngest state senator and then a new member of Congress after the '96 cycle.

The conversation also touches on his time in the Congressional baseball game, the education package he’s recently introduced, and how Seattle’s sports and civic energy from 1995 still echoes through the city today.

More moments from the 1995 run that led to the American League Divisional Series Game 5 victory: Seattle Mariners 6, New York Yankees 5 (11 innings)

• 11-inning ALDS Game 5 in 1995 parallels to 15-inning ALDS Game 5 in 2025
• Edgar Martinez — “The Double” in ‘95; clutch RBI double and AL batting champ
• Ken Griffey Jr. — walk-off moment scoring from first
• Randy Johnson — came out of bullpen in ‘95 Game 5; ceremonial presence and first-pitch energy in 2015 ALDS; symbol of Mariners grit
• Jay Buhner and Tino Martinez — key bats in '95
• Joey Cora — drag bunt to get tying baserunner on in the 11th
• Alex Rodriguez — young pinch-runner in ‘95 scoring tying run
• Lou Piniella — decision to ride Randy and rallying squad when down 13 games to Angels in August
• Paul O’Neill & Don Mattingly — ‘95 Yankee threats who defined tension in Game 5;
• David Cone — overextended start in Game 5 leading to Seattle rally
• Dan Wilson — future Mariners manager and steady catcher behind the plate with key plate appearance in Game 4
• Tie-breaker vs. Angels in ‘95 — Randy Johnson the stopper comes up huge on short rest

A few of the topics covered while revisiting the Angels 6, Giants 5 finish in Game 6 of the 2002 World Series: 

• Shaping of Angels fandom in Los Angeles from the ''80s through the early 2000s 
• The competitive dynamic between Angels, Dodgers, and Padres (and vs. NorCal) 
• With Anaheim being the only Southern California representative in the '02 playoffs, whether region was behind the Angels on this run
• Favorite '80s/'90s baseball video games? Griffey N64 had two quality '98 rosters for the eventual NL champ Padres and 85-win Angels Jim Edmonds and Chuck Finley would not see Y2K in an Angels uni, but did it seem by '98 that the core of something special could be there 
• Inception of the Rally Monkey in 2000 and how on board Levin was with this being a catalyst 
• The 2002 season and expectations for breaking a 16-year playoff drought heading in 
• Closing at home vs. the Yankees in Game 4 ALDS and the Twins in Game 5 ALCS
• Reaching the final stage for the first time imprints the uniform in people's minds. Were the '02 uniforms your favorite or is there another Angels era that stand outs on style? 
• Taking an L in Game 1 at home vs. the Giants and rallying back again. What was the environment like in Orange County and Greater Los Angeles as the series returned from San Francisco — following a 16-4 loss — for Game 6? 
• The most visceral memories from a slow start and then the 7th and 8th innings that supplied the runs for a 6-5 win to send it to Game 7 
• The vibe shift Sunday going into Game 7 The years since and how the Angels may get back to contending in the 2020s

A few of the topics covered while revisiting the UConn 77, Duke 74 finish in the '99 final:

• Early days of the Jim Calhoun era
• The excitement sparked in CT by Tate George's shot at the start of this decade, and the letdown vs. Duke days later
• UConn cutting their teeth on '90s Big East basketball
• Ray Allen and favorite UConn players or personalities of that decade on the rise
• Rising tide with ESPN, UConn, and Big East basketball
• Rip Hamilton and Khalid Al-Amin, what was most exciting about the way this duo played
• Expectations heading into the regional final and coming out of it.
• How did this simultaneous emergence of these two teams really generate the energy for the programs in Storrs, CT?
• How beatable did that juggernaut Blue Devils team seem?
• Ricky Moore defensive tour de force and supplying offense at the right moments
• Coach K vs. Calhoun chess match: Bothering Elton Brand and Trajan Langdon, denying Rip
• Jim Nantz delighting in the Moore-Avery August matchup; Late great Billy Packer on the call
• Award for bipartisanship in CT legislature, and also whether a common sports fandom can be a depolarizer
• Duke squad favored by 9.5, also had future Naismith Men's College Player of the Year Shane Battier as basically a role player in this game
• Hamilton catching fire, El-Amin crucial buckets down the stretch, and high tension in waning moments
• Pulling off the upset and the environment on the streets over that next week. Different than the reaction to the next four UConn men’s team championships?
• The foundation this win laid for the 21st century in Connecticut, both in state pride and having the basketball programs with the most titles over the past 25 years

The conversation maps out the geography of fandom across the Garden State and tri-state region: where Giants fans give way to Jets and Eagles territory, and where Springsteen’s following overlaps or competes with Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, and Sinatra. But we will be very careful about going too deep on Bruce Springsteen vs. Billy Joel in the tri-state. These two millennial Italians hailing from NJ and NY will however reminisce on favorite Giants memories from the old venue, and Week 17 against the Pats in '07 definitely makes the list. Unfortunately for the Jets, Chad Pennington got injured the same week Bruce played and it basically ended their season before it started. One of the AFC betting market favorites that year. That team is just cursed around Labor Day. Also kind of tough for the brand they had to play home games at a place called Giants Stadium for decades.

Nick and Thomas also share favorite moments from concerts and games at Giants Stadium, compare the Meadowlands experience to today’s MetLife Stadium, and revisit Bruce’s role in sending off Giants Stadium before its closure, along with basking in the glow of total New Jersey cultural dominance when Springsteen played the Super Bowl halftime show that year.

Though this is one story of Bears disappointment against Green Bay that carries a silver lining: Chicago actually won the NFC North that year! One of the great all-time Week 1 results that contradict how the season went down for both teams.

Episode threads from Green Bay Packers 24, Chicago Bears 23 in Week 1 of 2018:

• Randall Cobb’s unforgettable catch-and-run
• Geronimo Allison being a legendary receiver name
• Mitchell Trubisky's low-key strong fantasy season
• Nick Perry putting the game away by sacking Trubisky
• Fantasy triumphs and misfires from the 2018 season
• Great RotoViz tools for looking back at that season
• Jaire Alexander's debut
• Mike McCarthy or Matt LaFleur coaching the All-Century Team?
• Absurd highs and ominous signs from that game

We dive deep on that shot, but also talk cities, fandom, and basketball in the broader Pacific Northwest. 

• Shall we bring back on the Sonics? We have a pitch that involves intercity high-speed rail.
• How has OKC held up as a fanbase and NBA market post-Sonics? 
• What did that night in Portland feel like—and what did it mean for a region that hadn't caught a break since the Sonics left, or even further back to when the Lakers rallied in Game 7 against Portland in 2000.

Ray shares what it was like to be a post-Sonics Seattle basketball fan during the 2010s, including that weird emotional purgatory of watching the Thunder win a title. We look back at the 80s and 90s golden age of Pacific Northwest hoops, the dry years that followed, and what it was like to watch peak Lillard era in person.

We close with an ode to Dame’s improbable run to the 2019 West Finals, dragging that roster to heights nobody expected. And much more on CityNerd's third Remember That Game appearance.

Eric Michael Garcia, Washington Bureau Chief for The Independent (Archive) and author of We're Not Broken: Changing the Autism Conversation, came of age in San Antonio as Tim Duncan teamed up with David Robinson and Sean Elliott helped them avoid the fate of many snakebitten teams out west in the '90s.

Episode threads on this thriller that finished Spurs 86, Blazers 85:

• Respect to the Bob Costas-Doug Collins call that day for NBA on NBC
• Spurs postseason baggage before they ever got over the hump
• How Houston’s recent titles and Hakeem’s shadow loomed large down I-10
• Mario Elie calling out Tim Duncan, then delivering that inbound to Sean Elliott
• How fans saw the Blazers at the time and a reappraisal of a great, deep squad keyed by Rasheed Wallace
• Whether this was the most defensively adaptive Spurs team ever — and how Greg Popovich adjusted on the fly
• How this team sparked Eric's interest in newspapers and journalism
• Whether Pop could’ve made a real Senate run
• Texas public schools in the '90s and early 2000s
• And, of course, where Eric was when Sean Elliott found a way to stay in bounds and launch a dynasty

• NYY takes 3-0 series lead in American League Championship Series

Episode threads:

• Game 3 unravels fast—Yankees drop 19 runs behind A-Rod, Sheffield, Matsui, and Bernie Williams.
• Coping mechanisms as Sox fans watched one of the worst home losses in franchise history.
• Where Liam watched Game 3, and how that night felt personally and politically.
• Parallels between Red Sox down 3-0 and Democrats down three branches of government.

• Kevin Millar’s walk, Dave Roberts’ steal, Bill Mueller’s hit—the spark of the comeback.
• How Theo Epstein and Billy Beane saw value in overlooked talent like Millar.
• The Red Sox win two Ortiz walk-offs in one calendar day—belief starts to return.

Even this year's underdogs heading to the World Series in the Texas Ranger and Arizona Diamondbacks didn't knock off nearly as big of favorites in terms of combined odds, as with Florida toppling Atlanta and Cleveland upsetting Baltimore one riveting week back in '97. And it really starts rolling Sunday in Miami with Game 5.
