Going ISO - Howard Beck - a podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, Noah Coslov, Adam Stanco

Rejecting the Screen goes ISO with Bleacher Report's Howard Beck, one of the nation's most highly regarded NBA writers and the current host of The Full 48 podcast. The former LA Daily News & New York Times beat writer breaks down what it was like to cover Kobe and Shaq, reveals the real problems between them, and ruminates on how Twitter would have impacted their relationship. Plus, Howard compares the vibe of Lakers beat writers to Knicks beat writers. He also discusses how his famous "Brotherhood" column on LeBron and Carmelo had unintended negative consequences on the Cavs and looks back on covering the unforgettable "Davis Snorer."
