We don’t talk much sports on Geekscape, but ESPN’s multipart Michael Jordan documentary ‘The Last Dance’ is a major event. And with the Coronavirus Pandemic shutting down sports, who knows when I’ll get a chance to geek out on the NBA again. Luckily, Zach Harper is a basketball writer for The Athletic and a personality on SiriusXM’s NBA channel and is here on Geekscape to talk about the NBA shutdown, how esports is continuing to take over in the wake of the pandemic and when we might see basketball again! Along the way, we discuss the best basketball documentaries, the best basketball videogames (is it NBA Jam?) and what NBA players are total geeks themselves! Former Geekscape guest Erin Darling Torralva also drops in to talk about her new online comedy course and how she and Zach are navigating the quarantine together! Enjoy!
