Zach Lavine Interview

Post by thedoper »

Oh no. Zach Lavine calls KG a big mentor and thinks he could be a good coach and owner:

I was expecting a bigger douche factor with Lavine but really thought he came across as a good young man. Go Wolves.

Honestly I've always thought Zach seems like a pretty good dude but this interview was even more so. It was a fun interview for him to do but he seems chill, reasonably humble, and funny.

It's amazing the difference between guys that are rookies and the 2nd year players. I remember Bazz last offseason seemed so much more relaxed and himself. Wiggins in that Playstaion spot with Winslow seemed like a wise old man telling him stuff. There are some fun personalities on the Wolves.

Zach's a cool cat!

When we were in Houston, he was the ONLY player to sign autographs for the visiting fans (Four Seasons Hotel). There was only 5 people out there asking for signatures and NO ONE stop outside of Zach!!!

I really hope he succeeds here not just as a dunk champ.

I'm listening to this podcast now, and these folks spend more time laughing and posing ridiculous hypotheticals, than providing any interesting insight.

LaVine is definitely chill. I like him. He's more well spoken this year than last. Seems less anxious or nervous, and more like himself.

That is the point of that podcast, they really don't claim to cover the on court stuff but more the players themselves, their personal lives and such. Fun listen but don't expect any deep insight into the game.

This almost assures I will not listen to another one of these. Not because of the lack of insight, but I just couldn't get beyond all the giggling and talking over one another.

I totally disagree that they don't provide any deep insight. Where else are you going to hear about Nik Stauskas and Hillary Duff. Cam, were you aware of this?

I like this kids swagger. Making his rounds with Rubio right now...this has me cracking up.
