:bowdown: Lord Based Mamba!

Thank you Jeff.


After a few years of working for financial firms, Jeff got into journalism and began writing basketball stories for a major overseas magazine, doing a major cover story on then-rookie Kobe Bryant, and becoming the main U.S. NBA writer for what at the time was Australia's only famous basketball publication.

It's not.

I believe the Kobe article changed Jeff's life. He took it to another level as in Insidehoops.

In late 2000 Jeff left Australia and lived in Los Angeles for almost one year. By then, InsideHoops.com had a solid readership and a terrific reputation as a leading source of fun, educated basketball opinions. Jeff began doing radio interviews. The website kept growing. Inside Hoops was becoming famous.

Writes Kobe article, one year later moves to L.A. to most likely cover Kobe, and here we are in 2015....

How great is our God?

I gave Jeff that job so technically InsideHoops was founded because of me.
