Description

Widely-respected Australian broadcaster, journalist and news-breaker, Bill Woods. Adam and Todd discuss the origin of the NBA (early 1990s) on Australian (commercial) TV - further, Bill's key involvement as host of weekly, hoops-related programs, during basketball's golden age of popularity. Bill talks fondly of his co-hosting memories with Steve Carfino, plus, his memorable interviews with NBA superstars, including Michael Jordan, on the set of Space Jam, in 1995. This wide-ranging conversation covers plenty of topics, including great stories about Shaquille O'Neal, the Phoenix Suns Gorilla and Australian hoop heroes, Shane Heal and Andrew Gaze.
