NBA Hall of Famer Rick Barry (Rick’s camera turns on at the 4:28 mark) and award winning journalist Cyrus Saatsaz welcome five-time World Champion Michael Cooper of the Showtime Lakers to talk about which of his championships was his favorite, who the hardest players he ever defended was, his favorite teammates, playing in Europe and knowing the moment he knew retirement was imminent, and how Eric "Sleepy" Floyd of the Golden State Warriors set the playoff record (that still stands to this day) for most points in a quarter and half on Cooper the year he won the Defensive Player of the Year award.

Originally aired February 19, 2021 in Rick Barry's House, a Bleav Network podcast channel.
