Episode Details

Greatness leaves footprints. But what we are willing to learn from greatness will be the difference in our own success; especially if it involves the legendary Boston Celtics! Fran Racioppi welcomes the first NBA star to join The Jedburgh Podcast as one of Boston’s greatest, Slam Dunk Champion Dee Brown climbs into the back of the WC-51 live from the 2023 Sandlot Jax & GORUCK Games. 

Dee explains how the Celtics built a dynasty and shares what we can do on our own teams to impart a culture of winning, hard work and no excuses. He takes us back to the start, from his 1990 NBA draft selection, and the lessons he learned as a new guy standing in the locker room with GOATs like Larry Bird. It's time to get past hard on day one!

Dee also shows us the importance of ego in both our success and failure; and how to lead a group of experts when cohesion is the most important factor to winning. He also shares what we learn from competitive athletics, how we can transition from elite player, to manager, to coach, to executive, and the differences in coaching men vs women. 

The Reebok Pump is back and just like its debut in the 90’s, Dee Brown is pumping it up to slam it down. Learn more about Dee Brown on social media.
