Shownotes Transcript

On this episode of the Acquired Taste Podcast, host Mike Jimenez and producer Joe Garcia are joined by guest Casey Viera to discuss a variety of topics ranging from the San Antonio Spurs draft picks to potential trade assets. We will also discuss the current void in the San Antonio sports talk radio scene and the lack of Latinos representation. The conversation shifts to college football, the upcoming NBA draft and which year of the Spurs' championship run was the most notable. Join us for an insightful and entertaining discussion on sports, pop culture, and more.

Today's guest Casey Viera is an avid basketball fan who has a personal connection to Hofstra University. While he did not grow up in San Antonio in 2014, he believes that their championship win that year was the most notable of their five victories. He notes that their wins before 2014 were often dismissed as boring and unappealing, but the back-to-back finals against the Miami Heat helped to change that perception. He is a big fan of validation stories and was impressed by the Spurs' ability to consistently win despite not having the star power of other teams. Casey's love of basketball extends beyond just the Spurs and he enjoys watching and discussing the sport with others.
