Description
This week, The Long Shot is joined by senior ESPN writer and NBA guru Zach Lowe. Zach began his career in journalism covering crime & government and now is widely considered one of the brightest and best reporters that the NBA has to offer. The conversation begins with discussing his background, how those first jobs helped shape him as a reporter, and his unique style of writing.
Then, the guys shift to basketball and Week 1 Overreactions in the NBA: Do the Lakers have too much to try and figure out? How much trouble are the Pelicans in? Are the Bulls legit? Zach also shares his ‘worst take ever,’ what it’s like to deal with angry fan bases, and where he thinks the future of the NBA is headed.
Finally, Zach gives his list of underrated players that he would want on his team and then Duncan and Zach have an honest discussion about players who are considered to be on “good contracts” and how that really means they are underpaid.
Before all of that, Duncan and Davis give their weekly takeaways which include the rolling Knicks, Michigan football, their opinions on the NBA 75 list, and debut their new “Long Thoughts” segment. All that and more in this awesome episode!
