About this listen

The Stepback is a monthly NBA show that slows the game down just enough to see it clearly. Hosted by Suge (@Sugeknight323), bringing the fire and storytelling, and Josh, an old-school, proudly offline hoops head with clean breakdowns and deep perspective. Each episode dives into the biggest NBA storylines, trends, and debates with thoughtful takes, a little nostalgia, and zero daily-noise chaos. No hot-take factories—just smart basketball talk, once a month, stepping back and letting it fly. 🏀LGRN (Let's Get Ready Network) Basketball
