I hate SAS but he is very knowledgeable about Basketball, the man has been covering it his entire life and played throughout school until he broke his kneecap.
Not really tbh, he really just states the obvious but with conviction. I actually find when Skip isnt trying to troll having better opinions

Skip is full of shyt and 90% of his knowledge is just trolling, his 3 "acclaimed" books on the Cowboys are basically gossip books. Stephen A breaks stories and gets laughed at then it actually happens, Skip has no inside knowledge on anything except Manziel whom he correctly stated had an alcohol problem.

Yea I'm not saying any of them are experts (that's what I was trying to get to) just Skip doesnt try to act like he is the THE nba expert of the world when he he doesnt know much. He got one story right, the big 3 but has been off base on MANY occasions. When I say skip has better opinions I mean when he isnt trolling, he has some thoughts that are atleast solid

Skip constantly tries to use his "years of experience" whenever he wants to win an argument against SAS. SAS also broke the story of Doc Rivers going to the Clippers and Skip laughed at the idea, and he was the 1st person to say LeBron was going back to Cleveland. SAS is off base when he talks about everything except basketball.
