Alright…the much anticipated film for all you Bball Junkies out there is droppin’ soon. I’ve been trying to track this thing since word came out last year about it, now it’s set to aire on May 16th on ESPN. Peep out the post written by Bobbito Garcia on Bounce Magazine entitled: Kobe Doin Work. Bobbito’s one of few fortunate cats to be invited to see the world premiere. I’ll have to wait to see it like the rest of the world. Check out the official trailer here through this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xga1YIu1Yog
Finally, NBA caps manufactured by New Era will be available for purchase through their flagship stores (Atlanta, Buffalo, New York City and Toronto). It’s too bad they don’t have one out here in Cali. Word is, New Era plans to launch some different colorways for their NBA caps later this year. Stay posted. Check out www.neweracap.com.
Delivering hoop dreams comes with the territory when your name is World B Free. But let’s start at the top…In the early 60’s, before adopting the World, Lloyd Bernard Free was a free-wheeling Brooklyn baller known for his infamous “Brownsville Boogie”. His flamboyant game and when-in-doubt shoot mentality set him apart. But it was the 44 inch vertical leap and ridiculous hangtime that put him in a class of his own (and introduced fans to the 360!), knighting the “Prince of Midair” with a unique moniker, “World”. World B Free was born and moved on to the NBA, where the George Clinton of basketball brought funk on a nightly basis. His on-court pizzazz and ability to score made hime one of the league’s most recognizable characters, and valuable point guards. In 1978-79, World B Free was an All-Star, scoring 30.2 points per game for the San Diego Clippers, finishing second in the top scorers list behind only the “Iceman” George Gervin, for the second straight year. Free and his unforgettable ‘fro (along with the legendary tooth-gap) rocked the NBA for 13 seasons with the Clippers, 76ers, Warriors, Cavaliers and Rockets, scoring 20.3 ppg and becoming a true basketball icon along the way.
