I dunno if he's married or not, but I can just imagine him trying to give a compliment to his girlfriend/wife while still throwing a jab in there. "Honey that dress looks good on you if it weren't for your tankass getting in the way."
No, Steve would say: "We did not lose because they were better. We lost because the rest of team couldn't make their shots and play defense. I'm Brian Fellows!"
