Ray Allen Knows His Move From Boston To Miami Was Hard On The Fans. But Management & Teammates, They Should Understand… It Was Business (Video)

Plain talk from former Celtics standout Ray Allen. Here he is in Shanghai, telling his side of the story. In essence, he is letting viewers & fans know that it wasn’t him wanting to leave Boston, it was the Celtics… not doing what it took to keep him there. No beef with nobody on his side, even though some folks apparently reeeeally had HEAT for him for taking his talents to South Beach.

Ray Allen spoke in an exclusive interview with Tencent’s Lisa Hsu about the Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Paul Pierce and being a champion. Tencent, ESPN’s partner in China, is hosting its annual Super Penguin Basketball Celebrity Game in Shanghai.
– ESPN

Makes some good points in this interview. Pro sports is BUSINESS, not personal. And there is NO loyalty. The Celts could have dropped Allen, and that would be that; not a tear shed.

NBA Standout Dwayne Wade Speaks On Leaving The Heat For The Windy City And Getting A Warm Reception And More (Video)

It’s only a six-minute clip but there is a lot in there (including precious seconds of screen time with gorgeous wifey Gabrielle Union). D Wade joining D Rose in Chicago certainly signals the Bulls desire to win rings, but other things ring true in this clip. Concerned about making the most of his remaining time (even referencing his long-gone youth, when he was ‘able to sit Indian style’ and dream about playing for the Bulls), getting the best contract and competitive situation for himself…all that and more…factored into Dwayne Wade’s decision to make that move from Miami. Watch him talk all about it above.

Dwayne Wade speaks with Cari Champion about his decision to sign with his hometown Chicago Bulls, his welcoming discussion with Jimmy Butler, and what message LeBron James and Chris Paul told him before signing.

(SportsCenter’s Cari Champion is definitely looking lovely in this interview, too. Bonus!)

Overall it’s a good look all around. This episode is in three parts so check out Parts 2 & 3 after the jump….

‘Close Range’ With Ray Allen (Documentary)

Very interesting tidbit from Ray’s wife in there: What do the ultimate competitors do when they retire? That fire has to go into something. Fortunately for the NBA ultimate shooter, Ray Allen is a golfer… with some competitive pro-athlete retirees that golf. GQ covers that and much more in such a short docu-series episode.

Ray Allen is a living legend. He’s a ten-time NBA All-Star who has won two championships, in 2008 with the Boston Celtics and 2013 with the Miami Heat. He holds the NBA’s record for most three-pointers made, with 2,973 buckets. Since his retirement in 2016, Ray has shifted his focus – to fatherhood, golf, and an organic fast-food restaurant. Take a look into the life of a champion, and his obsession with greatness.

Dwyane Wade – Journey To 3 (Documentary)

“The journey is to 3… Three symbolizes to me a lot of what I believe in – The Father, The Son, The Holy Ghost… I needed to lean on my faith…”

Dwayne Wade

Suffice it to say the game is more than basketball to champions. It’s life – mind, body & soul. But to watch this D. Wade documentary – Journey To 3 – you get a real chance to see the man being real. Miami Heat basketball is definitely the context, but watch for what you learn about the athlete taking care of himself, the man persevering through adversity, and the father being with and for his family. A lot expertly squeezed into half a half-hour.

Slam Dunks: Lebron James Amazing Posterizing Dunk Over Jason Terry

I thoroughly enjoyed this last night as I was rooting for the Miami Heat to keep their historic NBA winning streak alive versus the Boston Celtics. I noticed throughout the game how Boston Celtic’s Jason Terry appeared to be talking trash most of the game but Lebron James’ alley-oop dunk on Jason Terry clearly shifted the momentum of the rest of the game. Lebron’s subtle stare down while Jason Terry was on the ground made this all the more hilarious. #TEAMHEAT

Lebron James: Journey To The Ring (Video)

Lebron James, the greatest basketball player in the NBA today, has probably had the best ever year of his life. King James has won his third NBA league MVP Award, lead his Miami Heat squad to an NBA Championship in which he was also the NBA Finals MVP, & lead the U.S. Men’s Olympic basketball team to Olympic Gold among many other accolades. In fact, Michael Jordan is the only other player to win an N.B.A. championship, N.B.A. most valuable player honors and Olympic gold in the same year. It’s been an outstanding year for a man who I believe is on pace to be the greatest ever to play the game of basketball. Although Lebron James & the Miami Heat are the heavy favorites to win another NBA championship next season, only time will tell as there is still plenty of work to do for the 27-year-old superstar but this “highlight documentary” follows the kid from Akron Ohio’s entire journey to his first ever NBA championship ring. I’m proud to say that I was there. Here’s to more championship rings for the King. Greatness!

Skyzoo – “FGR” (First Generation Rich) [Video]


Respect to Skyzoo for the new video dopeness! “FGR” (First Generation Rich) is off Skyzoo’s forthcoming mixtape, “Theo VS JJ (Dreams vs. Reality).”  You can cop your own download of the mixtape (including this “FGR” joint) via iTunes. Nice. So nice! Here’s what Skyzoo had to say about it:

‘The idea for “FGR” came from me watching an Oprah Winfrey special on the Miami Heat’s recent title win; she asked Dwyane Wade about his life now, as opposed to when he was a kid in Chicago. He went on to talk about being the first one in his family to have any type of ‘real money.’ In doing so, he used a slogan: “First Generation Rich.”
