NBA world reacting to Bam Adebayo's 83-point game: Erik Spoelstra: "I didn't dare even think about taking him out." Brian Keefe: "In the fourth quarter it turned into not a real basketball game." Giannis Antetokounmpo: "It doesn't matter how you get there ... Like 30 years from now, nobody's going to remember how many free throws he shot. I don't think I remember how many shots Kobe had or how many free throws he made or 3s. All you remember is 81. Wilt, 100 ... So, at the end of the day, he got 83 points." Kevin Durant: “I couldn’t believe it when I was hearing it in real time ... Congratulations to Bam ... I looked at his stats, it’s pretty crazy. 40 shots, 40 free throws, 20 3s ... To pass Kobe as the second-highest scorer in the history of the game, congrats to him ... Something we’ll talk about forever." Ime Udoka: "First thing you think is how? Not because of him, but because of the way he plays. I saw he only made [seven] 3s but 40 free throws or something like that, tells the story right there. And... the Washington Wizards." Kelly Oubre: “I’m just gonna say this man: Joel [Embiid] did it efficiently, and he did it in three quarters.” (📸: @MiamiHEAT)
