Big Man with a Bigger Heart – Basketball Trainer, Coach,
and Point Forward.
Through Basketball and Life, passion emanates through Carlos Valdez. In this pod, we discuss his affinity for Basketball in Puerto Rico; his voluntary displacement to the United States, his wild journey playing ball out here, and how he found a permanent home and lasting love on Long Island. All that and more, my conversation with Carlos, now.
“When I rock the hoop yo, you’d better decipher
In other words you’d better make a funky decision
’cause I’m a be a Shaq knife, and cut you with precision.”
– Shaq
“Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right.”
– Henry Ford
“I don’t dunk anymore.” – Tim Duncan
Until tomorrow.
