This NBA player comparison is for true fans of NBA defensive big men. Today, Bam Adebayo protects the rim for the Heat, but back in the 90s, Miami had a star center that was just as fierce in the paint. We compare Alonzo Mourning to Bam Adebayo in this episode of NBA Now & Then.

Because Uriah was dealing with a bad case of bronchitis, Winston steps in and went through the backgrounds of Bam and Zo. Lucas offers best season and career stats, while the pod finds similarities and distinctions between the two Miami favorites.

Ben presents all of the awards and honors Bam and Zo earned, while Maurice follows with the keys teammates that the Heat big men played with throughout their careers.

This episode from our 50-40-90 Interview Series welcomes author, Paul Knepper. As a native New Yorker, the hoops writer, formerly of Bleacher Report, peels back layers of the New York Knicks from a remarkable decade of NBA basketball in his book, The Knicks of the 90s. He provides in-depth insight into what was happening during the time that Patrick Ewing patrolled the paint, John Starts launched bombs, and Charles Oakley was the enforcer New York needed to go on a memorable run in that era.

After years of research and interviews with former players and other key Knicks figures, Knepper gives readers more than a glimpse into one of the greatest runs in Knicks history despite coming so close to a title.
