You know actor Michael Rapaport loves basketball. How much does he love it? At the 2010 NBA All Star Game celebrity game, he stole the MVP award from Terrell Owens, who had won it previously for two years straight.
So Rapaport just happened to be in Dallas today, not for the Mavs parade, but holed up in a hotel doing a press junket for his new documentary on the seminal hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest called Beats, Rhymes, & Life: The Travels of a Tribe Called Quest.
We’ll have more of his thoughts on Tribe and his movie on FrontRow closer to the open date on July 29. But more pressingly, what does Rapaport think of the Mavs win?
I’m so glad to be in Dallas. I wish I could have went to the parade, I mean, I was really happy that the Mavericks won. I really was rooting for them. I’ve always like this team. I’m a Knicks fan, but I’ve always like the Mavericks. I love Dirk Nowitzki. I love Mark Cuban. And I just think it is great for the NBA. And I think it might just wind up being one of the best things that happens to LeBron James because I think it is just going to push him to be even better than he already is.
