but these guys Windhorst, Bontemps and Macmahon are really bad journalists. Unfortunately i skip the episodes with them because they are not able to give a diverse or a dialectical point of view. It seems they like to be a version of Stephen A Smith but SAS has style and comedy. They take themselves way too serious and that’s a strength of zach or ramona or chiney <3 I d love an episode with Ben Taylor from Thinking Basketball.
Great Podcast

It is truly enjoyable to hear Zach Lowe explain more complex Basketball topics. The back and forth with Kevin Arnovitz is great. I do not understand the decision to have Windhorst on, who is constantly trying to dominate any conversation he is involved in. Always have to skip his rants. Have Pelton instead!!!
