With the NBRPA‘s Legends World Sports Conference in Las Vegas coming up and Reel Media Group making its second appearance there, we thought we’d take a look back at the history between RMG and NBA Legends, and how we’ve helped build the broadcasting careers of retired NBA alumni following their departure from professional basketball. Take a look below!
Joe Smith
Joe has a long history with Reel Media Group. After retiring from the NBA, Joe worked with RMG to build up his broadcasting repertoire, even going on to shoot his own demo reel with RMG’s own Bram Weinstein (you may know Bram from his weekly segment on our blog – #BramsBlog).
After shooting his reel with us, he was featured on CNN discussing Lamar Odom‘s drug use. (Clip below.)
Most recently, Joe Smith took over our Twitter account for the NBA Playoff game on May 4, serving as our digital sports analyst for the Cavs v. Hawks game.
