I love sports. For sure the three major sports here in America and that is football, basketball and baseball. And when Tiger is winning or near the lead, I like watching golf. By the way, Tiger Woods is coming back in October which is great for me and great for the networks.

But for sure the sport I love by far is basketball. High school, college and yes…the NBA. Since childhood my favorite sport has been the National Basketball Association and all the players who play in it. I am a NBA junky.

I know the history of the game. I am like Lebron James and Kobe who know about the history of the NBA. Going back to Boston Celtics and all their titles with Bill Russell. Who by the way has been here in our area of Seattle since the 70’s in Mercer Island, Washington.

And the great “Logo” Jerry West and Elgin Baylor and the great great late Wilt Chamberlain. The “Doctor” Julius Erving, “Pistol” Pete Maravich, Earl “The Pearl” Monroe, Walt “Clyde” Frazier, Bill Walton, the great Larry Bird and “Magic” Johnson, “The Captain” Kareem Abdul-Jabbar who is the greatest scorer in the NBA, the “Bad Boys” Detroit Pistons with my longtime friend Seattle’s own big James Edwards.

To Lonnie Shelton, Jack Sikma, the late “DJ” Dennis Johnson, “The Wizard” Gus Williams, and the “JJ” John Johnson and head coach Lenny Wilkens and our NBA title winning Sonics, “The Glove” and Hall Of Famer Gary Payton, “The Reign Man” and my friend Shawn Kemp of our dearly departed Seattle Supersonics, “The Human Highlight Film” Dominique Wilkens and on and on.

To the stars of today, I love the NBA. I can watch a pre-season game and love it. In my opinion, the NBA has the best athletes in the major sports. Look at “Magic” Johnson for instance. He was a 6ft 9in POINT GUARD!! Most guys who are his size cannot dribble for three seconds without traveling. Look at the great Lebron James who does incredible things on the court at 6ft 8in. Every game in the NBA you will see something great that will make you say WOW!!

This is why the NBA has great ratings behind of course the NFL. Another sport that I love. And we see NBA players doing a lot of marketing of products on TV. Like Shaq, Barkley, Lebron, Curry, Blake Griffin, Westbrook, Paul George, James Harden, KD, Kobe, Dr. J, Chris Paul, Damian Lillard aka Dame Dolla and more. And how about our Seattle area NBA players like vets “NBA 6th Man Of The Year” Jamal Crawford, Jason “The Jet” Terry, Spencer Hawes, Avery Bradley, Ishiah Thomas and more from our area.

So having said all that. Because of my love of the NBA and my city of Seattle of course not having a NBA team when Bennett bought our Sonics and moved them to dust town OKC, I am going to have my “Sports Inner City TV” webcasts to feature ONLY NBA news and views and highlights. Starting with the pre-season. There is always something going on in the NBA that makes news.

Of course I will not cover everything but I will cover a couple of stories every webcast and more right here on “Sports Inner City Online”. And will have a hip-hop/r&b or pop music video on the webcasts too! The webcasts can be viewed WORLDWIDE via your smartphone, tablet, mac or pc.
