  • Higher ticket prices would be bad

    Genuinely disgraceful for a pundit to say games should be cut to induce scarcity to drive up ticket prices. We should make the season 100 games

  • Zach Lowe has gotten significantly worse with The Ringer

    Finally just giving up on Lowe and his podcasts. Thinking Basketball and Dunc’d On do a far better job if you want mindful basketball analysis. Somehow Zach’s guests have gotten worse with The Ringer than they were on ESPN, and he meanders a lot more about the same teams, over and over and over again.

    His “Playoff Preview” episode with SVG was the last that I’ll listen to. SVG is one of the few great guests he still has, but their discussion was so ridiculous and stale, and Lowe would not pu... more

  • Really? Wos?

    I can’t believe you had Wos on the show. This is a serious NBA podcast for people who really understand and can comment intelligently on the game and he just doesn’t belong.

    It was especially hard to hear him praising the 76ers when he appeared not that long ago on the Lowe Post and said the Sixers had the bleakest outlook of any team in the east, specifically worse than the Wizards and Nets.

    The man just has bad takes and doesn’t know what he’s talking about most of the time.

  • Zach Lowe is washed

    Zach used to be one of best analysts in all of sports! Completely objective and on the money with a lot of analysis. Now, he’s always wrong and has horrible guests. What’s the point of listening to this nerd if he’s always wrong and a hypocrite when it comes to NBA awards. NBA media has never been worse than it is right now.

Q: How does Cade Cunningham's injury affect Detroit's playoff odds and the broader East playoff picture?
Cunningham's absence removes the Pistons' ultimate catalyst, likely pushing them to rely on depth and defense, which could complicate their chances in a crowded East where several teams are vying for the last spots.
How Close Is Cade Cunningham to Being the MVP? Plus, Dwyane Wade Looks Back on His Career.
Q: Do you recall the conversation from Gary Payton about it being Dwyane Wade's team?
I was on LeBron to help him snap out of it, and I felt I failed my leadership responsibilities during that series.
