Before Woj, before Marc Stein, before Marc Spears, before any of the NBA national reporters we all follow on Twitter, there was Peter Vecsey. If you're old enough to have watched the NBA in the 90's, you remember him as the know-everything guy on NBC's broadcasts. Vecsey retired from the New York Post in 2011, and lives on Long Island with his wife of 37 years, whose name he did not say during our rambling, 1 1/4-hour chat.

We did talk about the Warriors and how they would stack up against the great teams in history (not so well), the 1975 Warriors and Rick Barry, and the ABA, which Vecsey covered closely back in the day.
