New project

Hello,
Universal Interview has released its newest project!

I am starting a new program called "A day in the life of.."
This new segment will be more then an interview but will show the jobs of executives,actors and athletes of all different types of companies. I started this because I don't think executives and actors efforts are appreciated enough. People always try to talk as if they can handle it but in actuality they can't!  It's unreasonable for me to aspire to be D-Will or Brett Yormark but trying to be someone like an executive is reasonable with the right effort.

The project will be launched with someone who I consider my mentor,David Robinson!
I have reached to people I have been in contact with such as Marc Cuban and Kki.

Is there more to the NBA then the teams themselves?

Is there more to the NBA then the teams themselves? 

I am happy to report that the answer is YES! The NBA consists of people of the highest caliber and people who like to be a class act. I personally have met three major NBA executives (David Robinson, Kiki Vandeweghe and Rod Thorn). I have stayed in touch with Kiki and David. The NBA is represented by people who are dignified and all have a story. I would like to fill you in on a short bio of the three executives I have met:

Rod Thorn: He drafted Michael Jordan when he was GM of the Bulls and he is responsible for the best trade in Nets history,trading for Jason Kidd. Besides for Jason's exceptional style on and off the court he is also the current Nets head coach.
Kiki: Kiki is an amazing person. He is a former player for the Trail Blazers and was also head coach for the Nets. He was drafted in the first round and had an amazing career as a GM,coach and player. He is now the NBA VP of Basketball operations.

David Robinson: David is someone who is friendly and caring. I have had a lot of contact with him over the last month and everything he does is because he cares. He personally has helped my friend Issac and I numerous times. He has recently become one of my inspirations and mentors. He has taught me to have confidence in what I do. 

He was telling me stories about himself and how he was supposed to be a player. Unfortunately due to an injury he is doing the second best thing by being an executive in the NBA. 

I am glad I am able to say I have met and know Mr. Robinson
