Ever been to New Bedford, MA? Michael Conceicao is in the house today and he truly made us feel the pride, passion, and rich culture that New Bedford has for its hoops. We left this conversation feeling like we actually spent time in the area and lived through some of these experiences. The basketball stories in this episode are unique and any basketball fanatic will appreciate this one. Michael Conceicao was born and raised in New Bedford MA. He was a three-year starter and two-time team captain at Bishop Stang High School before going on to play at Framingham State where he was third in the nation in assists for DIII during the 1981-82 season and was the Defensive Player of the Year. He officiated basketball for 20+ years and ran the Monte Park Shootout for over 30 years which leads to some incredible stories! Conceicao wrote several great articles including “A Day with Dr. J” that we get to hear about as well. Michael is truly a basketball historian and we can’t thank him enough for his time. It was a pleasure learning more about him and the love for hoops that New Bedford has. He also shared some great stories about Julius Erving, Nate Archibald, Joe Bryant, David Leitao, Larry Bird, Reggie Lewis, Chris Herren and MUCH more. We learned so much about the game from an officiating standpoint due to his experience as an official and these are simply hoop stories that you won’t hear anywhere else. We promise this won’t be last time that we hear from Michael Conceicao. He is welcome back ANY time!Thank You Michael Conceicao!
