Isiah Thomas 2 Time NBA Champ and former Coach of NY Knicks-2016

21-02-2016Abbey Muneer 0

Isiah Lord Thomas III is an American retired basketball player who played professionally for the Detroit Pistons in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The 12-time NBA All-Star was named one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Thomas has also been a professional and collegiate head coach, a basketball executive, and a broadcaster.

Thomas played collegiately for the Indiana Hoosiers. He went on to play professionally as point guard for the Pistons from 1981 until 1994 and led the “Bad Boys” to NBA championships in the 1988–89 and 1989–90 seasons. After his playing career, he was an executive with the Toronto Raptors, a television commentator, an executive with the Continental Basketball Association, head coach of the Indiana Pacers, and an executive and head coach for the New York Knicks. He was later the men’s basketball coach for the Florida International University (FIU) Golden Panthers for three seasons from 2009 to 2012. In early May 2015, amidst controversy, Isiah was named president and part owner of the Knicks’ WNBA sister team, the New York Liberty, subsequent to the re-hiring of Thomas’s former Pistons teammate, Bill Laimbeer, as the team’s coach.

On December 22, 2003, the New York Knicks hired Thomas as President of Basketball Operations.Thomas was ultimately unsuccessful with the Knicks roster and fanbase. At the end of the 2005–06 season, the Knicks had the highest payroll in the league and the second-worst record. He traded away several future draft picks to Chicago in a deal for Eddy Curry including what turned out to be two lottery picks in talent-rich drafts.
On April 2, 2008, Donnie Walsh was introduced to replace Thomas as President of Basketball Operations for the Knicks. Walsh would not comment definitively on whether or not Thomas would be retained in any capacity at the time of his hiring.

One night after the Knicks tied a franchise record of 59 losses and ended their season, news broke that in talks with Walsh the week before, Thomas had been told he would not return as Knicks head coach the following season. He was officially “reassigned” on April 18 “after a season of listless and dreadful basketball, a tawdry lawsuit and unending chants from fans demanding his dismissal. Thomas posted an overall winning percentage of .341 as head coach of the Knicks, fifth lowest in team history. As part of the reassignment agreement, Thomas was to serve as a consultant to the team, reporting directly to Walsh. However, he was banned from having contact with any Knicks’ players under the rationale that he could willingly or unwillingly undermine the new head coach.

World Liberty TV, Team was on hand where Isiah Thomas participated in a Sports Panel Organized By Rev Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow Push Wall Street Project, See what Isiah had to say at the Keynote he delivered, there is also talks of him coming Back to be the head Coach of NY Knicks.

Interview with Teddy Atlas Boxing Trainer ,Commentator & Humanitarian-2016

22-01-2016Abbey Muneer 0

Theodore A. “Teddy” Atlas, Jr. is an American boxing trainer and fight commentator. The son of a doctor, Atlas grew up in a wealthy area of Staten Island, New York City, New York. His mother Mary Riley Atlas was a former contestant in the Miss America pageant system, as well as a model. His father was of Hungarian Jewish descent. Teddy spent summers in Spring Lake New Jersey, with his family’s friends.

Teddy Atlas trained as an amateur boxer with Hall of Fame trainer Cus D’Amato. He had some amateur fights but had to turn to training due to a back injury. Atlas was an assistant to D’Amato, although his role in the Catskill Boxing Club was short-lived. His duties included assisting in the training of D’Amato’s teenage protégé Mike Tyson. However, Atlas left the camp in 1982 following an altercation with the 16-year-old Tyson after Tyson had been sexually inappropriate with a 11-year-old female relative of Atlas’s (Tyson said he had grabbed the girl’s buttocks). Atlas put a .38 caliber handgun to Tyson’s ear and told him to never touch his family again or he would kill him if he did. This altercation between Atlas and a young Mike Tyson led to Atlas’ dismissal from the Catskill Boxing Club and he was told he was no longer welcome in D’Amato’s home or around any of his adopted children (his fighters whom he had legally adopted, Tyson included).

Atlas enjoyed his biggest success as head trainer to Michael Moorer, whom he guided to the world heavyweight title in 1994. He drew criticism for what some considered to be overly dramatic speeches in the ring corner, particularly during Moorer’s Heavyweight title fight with Evander Holyfield, and some felt he did this to draw attention to himself rather than help his fighter. During one such speech Atlas blocked Moorer from sitting on his stool and asked “Do you want me to take over?” Atlas has denied this, stating that he did what he believed the fighter needed based on his understanding of the fighter. Moorer went on to defeat Holyfield by a majority decision.
Atlas worked as a boxing commentator for NBC’s coverage of the Olympic Games in Sydney (2000), Athens (2004), Beijing (2008) and London (2012).

Atlas currently serves as commentator for ESPN, formerly for ESPN2’s Friday Night Fights and Wednesday Night Fights and currently for ESPN’s Premier Boxing Champions fights. In 2001, he won the Sam Taub Award for excellence in boxing broadcasting journalism, and was a contributor on fight doctor Ferdie Pacheco’s The 12 Greatest Rounds of Boxing DVD, on which he stated that in the first Ali-Liston fight the famous “blind round” in which Ali could not see after being hit by Liston’s gloves which had been smeared in a substance that temporarily blinded Ali. Atlas stated he would have refused to have cut Ali’s gloves off and would have simply sent him out with the advice to just “run”.

Atlas is currently married to Elaine, with whom he has two children: Teddy III and Nicole.
In 1997, he founded the Dr. Theodore Atlas Foundation to honor the memory of his father. The foundation awards scholarships and grants to individuals and organizations. Atlas published his autobiography, Atlas: From the Streets to the Ring: A Son’s Struggle to Become a Man, in 2006. The book covers many different periods of Atlas’s life, and compares his position as trainer to a role as a father.

World Liberty TV,Boxing Team was on hand @ The Manny Pacquiao VS Timothy Bradley 3rd Fight @ MGM Las Vegas in April 2016, at MSG NY Press Conference, Mr Atlas is the Trainer of Bradley in this mega fight, see what he had to say to world liberty TV, Boxing Channel.

Marv Albert is an American sportscaster. Honored for his work as a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, he is commonly referred to as “the voice of basketball”. From 1967–2004, he was also known as “the voice of the New York Knicks”.
Albert has called the play-by-play of six Super Bowls, NBA Finals, and seven Stanley Cup Finals. He has also called the Wimbledon Tennis Championships for TNT with Jim Courier and Mary Carillo. He also worked as a co-host and reporter for two World Series (1986 and 1988).

Albert currently works for Turner Sports and CBS Sports. He serves as lead announcer for NBA games on TNT, has formerly called regional NFL games on CBS, and also calls NCAA tournament action for CBS and Turner.
For 37 years beginning in 1967, Albert was the voice of the New York Knicks on radio and television (getting his start by being a ball boy for the Knicks before getting his first break on New York radio by sportscaster Marty Glickman) before being let go by James L. Dolan, the chairman of the MSG Network and Cablevision, after Albert criticized the Knicks’ poor play on-air in 2004. His son Kenny Albert has been a part-time play-by-play announcer for the Knicks since 2009, whenever the older Albert’s successor Mike Breen (whom he later followed on the NBA on NBC broadcasts and now works on ESPN and ABC aside from his role at MSG) is unavailable.

Albert has gained credibility and popularity among younger television viewers during his 126 [8] guest appearances on David Letterman’s late night talk shows for NBC and CBS. Each time Albert appears, he brings with him a group of clips featuring sports bloopers and outstanding plays, which he narrates and dubs the “Albert Achievement Awards”. The music accompanying the bloopers is “12th Street Rag”.

Albert was placed as number 14 on David J. Halberstam’s list of Top 50 All Time Network Television Sports Announcers on Yahoo! Sports.

In 1992, he appeared as himself on Roger Waters’ rock album Amused to Death, giving a mock commentary on the destruction of an oil rig on the song “Perfect Sense, Part II”.

An “Albert Achievement Awards” video was released in 1993. It featured cameos by Mike Fratello, Ahmad Rashad, Charles Barkley, David Letterman, O.J. Simpson, Bob Costas, and Tom Brokaw.

Albert became the first guest commentator in MTV’s Celebrity Death Match cartoon series. He appeared in the 1998 pilot episode before being replaced with Stacey Cornbred.

Albert was briefly mentioned in the 2006 film Grandma’s Boy.

Albert also appeared as a special guest on The Simpsons, in the Season 20 episode “The Burns and the Bees” in 2008.

Albert’s voice is imitated in the popular video game NBA Jam. The announcer was modeled on Albert although there is no mention of Albert in the game and was actually voiced by Tim Kitzrow.

There she performed her first song “Somos Raperos Pero No Delincuentes”. The Noise gained much attention due to their violent and explicitly sexual lyrics.
