026 - Steve Steele II

Sometimes accidental episodes are the best. On this episode of the show i'm joined once again by Armchair Commentary co-host Steve Steele, in a bit of an impromptu conversation sparked from an off-air conversation regarding Fred Vanvleets contribution to the Raptors. We start the show talking a bit of Habs, Leafs, which jersey I should buy, and Steve rips into the state of reffing in certain sports & why this situation is not an isolated incident. We then get back on topic as Steve explains to me why Kawhi was essentially Jordan in the 2019 conference semis vs the Sixers, and checks me on my valuation of Fred Vanvleets play prior to the Milwaukee series (Hint: he puts me in my place hahaha). We finish the show up by talking about a bit of basketball lore, before we meet on a couple hot takes: which perennial all-star do we debate if they are truly a superstar, and which all-time NBA great may have actually been a bit of a let down? Steve always brings incredible energy and knowledge to the table, and it was my treat having him back on the show for a second time - certainly far from the last.
