    On August 1st Brian Grant is hosting a huge fundraiser. Michael J Fox will be there and Pat Riley will be the keynote speaker. But Cassius Clay himself will be in attendance. I've been asked to cut together a 2 minute intro piece before they all come on stage. Should turn out pretty cool, I'll post it when I'm done. I had the pleasure of meeting Ali in the lobby of the team hotel in PHX when Larry Miller brought him in to speak to the guys. What an amazing experience!

    Does Pat Riley have Parkinson's?

    Right On! I believe "the best ever" (Ali) is actually speaking as well. I am actually a volunteer for this event, lucky me. The list of celebs goes on, Bill Russel, Sir Charles, Walton, B-Roy Drexler and G.0, Alonzo, Steve Nash, and many others!

    Brain Grant is the Man, It's gonna be BIG!

    You should call him Cassius Clay, sorta/really disrespectful

    I got to meet him 20 years ago, have home video of it and two autographs
