ESPN's Justin Tinsley joins the show to relive Vince Carter and Allen Iverson's heavyweight battle in the 2001 East Semis, a matchup that many feel was the greatest non-Finals playoffs series ever. Exchanging blows were a 5th year MVP in Allen Iverson and Carter, a 3rd year, record-setting scoring machine and highlight factory. Both players faced immense pressure and criticism from the media at this time, Iverson for his unbuttoned off the court lifestyle and Carter for his history of dismal performances in big moments. Tinsley and host Dylan Dreyfuss discuss the state of the NBA in 2000/01, Vince Carter's graduation trip, Iverson's complicated relationship with the NBA and much more. Thanks for tapping in!
