JJ Redick | THE PROCESS 

I just acquired a whole new perspective. I guess I've never given players much thought beyond a one dimensional perception that every player's path was pretty much a limo ride to the bank. What I saw instead is the struggle to balance all the facets of life through a course of challenges, something most of us can relate to. What we usually see is all the glamour and glitz between workouts and games, not the moving boxes in modest rental properties during conversations of uncertainty. I particularly hadn't considered the issue of effect on family life - the missing stability of a permanent home, community and time with family. In this aspect, players have more in common with members of the armed forces than the elites we tend to group them with. Redick is a smart, articulate guy. The way he shared his experience bumped me out of a rut of misunderstanding.

"People care about who they might get, instead of who they have." No truer words have been spoken. Appreciate what you have before it's gone, people!

Went from being paid less than 7mill a year to being paid 23 mill in one year. Good on him.

GET THIS MAN A PORTABLE CHARGER!

U can tell JJ stacking n saving his bread for life after bball...dude lives n a modest ordinary looking home

Godspeed, J.J. You were a great Clipper. Though I'm still a Clipper fan, I'll watch every Sixers game for you, man. Once a Clipper always a Clipper.

Hope this open eyes to fans niggas really be bashing people and don't have a clue what goes on behind the scenes

Love behind the scenes shit like this

wow! JJ really gave us a great respective on free agency. It's not all lebron choosing his landing spot. Happy he got his deal.

Whole point why uninterrupted is started

This was fantastic man. You don't really think about the sense of disappointment and neglect a free agent gets from their prior team and the effect it also has on their families. JJ was very candid about the whole experience even the whole 10% thing but damn some YOU GETTIN PAAAAIIIIIDDDDD. It's a great sign when your a ball fan and you are excited to watch Philly this last year and going forward, we all are and hopefully things come together finally and they become the beast they can be. TRUST THE PROCESS.

This was amazing. For the first time I thought about how difficult it must be just to have to pack, move, uproot a family at almost any given moment...

He is right. Philly right now is the best situation for JJ financially and it gives him leverage. He may be 33 but his shooting and ability to play off ball will age well and has tremendous value in the league. And once Philly sorts out their long term contract situations for their core players they may want JJ to be there for the 3-4 year deal.

UNINTERRUPTED is changing the game, I love it.

Seem like just yesterday he was playing for Duke. Now he's a veteran in the NBA. Time flies. Cool to see he's had a successful career.

Remarkable shooter, great player, but even better guy. JJ's had an above-average NBA career silencing his doubters that thought he wouldn't last a day coming out of Duke. He works diligently perfecting his craft and making sure he's in tip top shape which is why he's been so successful despite the challenges. Great vid.

Need more of these. Dope. Welcome to Philly

*This shows that NBA players are human too, and has the same emotions as us*

Philli gonna go off 😂

This was awesome to show J.J. Going to miss you on the clippers, but seeing this made me realize you might the best choice for you and your family.

The Sixers do meetings in Camden NJ? Jesus Christ, no wonder no one has wanted to join us the past decade.

I'm a big soccer fan from the UK and shit like this is what makes the NBA such an interesting sport. The accessibility is something you just don't see in the other major sports

he threw out all those towels and pillows and shit? id use them shit

Anyone here after the 2020 Clippers blew a 3-1 lead? JJ was spot on about the Clipper culture and that still carried on with Doc, etc.

This documentary shows another side of the NBA, role players and their family. Amazing doc and absolutely love your podcast JJ. Keep hustlin!

What a class act. I will always be a redick fan. This dude is so down to earth.

This is like Moneyball level documentary. Helps that he's so articulate. Reminscent of Nash's Grantland video on stretch and waive.

This was amazing. We need more of these, please.

Definitely appreciate the insight that JJ shared with us. He's received a helluva raise though lol. We look forward to having him in Philly this season.

As a Duke fan, this was great. I never thought JJ would last this long in the NBA; however, the way he changed his body (post Duke) and improved his foot speed has been impressive. I don't think he got the opportunity in LA (CP3, pass the ball!) but I like him in Philly and wish him the best.

Just love these kind of short films/documentaries. Need more!

Such a great short doco - thanks for posting for free too!

I wonder what Dwight Howard is going through.

The Chronicles of Reddick podcast brought me here

EXCELLENT video and audio!!!! i'm very eager to know which kind of cameras we're used for this.

As pro athlete overseas here in Europe I really can relate to this 100%. Thanks Uninteruppted for another amazing production!!!

My fav player on NBA2k12 😂😂

How he goes about his career, very perceptive guy, Im not surprised if he ends up a GM (or a coach) for an NBA team in the future. Sports and showbusiness is a meat grinder, so much scrutiny about how much youre really worth. Youre basically an asset and your employeer will make sure to squeeze every hundred dollar bill theyre paying you. Getting paid millions, definitely comes at a price. Lots of pro dudes arent mature enough to be able to handle it.

JJ was my first real favourite player.. the first basketball game i watched was a clippers one. I watched JJ play and the way he shot the ball really made me fall in love with the game. i started playing 2k15 with the clippers and i played the whole time with the clippers and JJ on the perimeter. Its really great to see him on a better team than LA. Happy he got his deal

I cannot overstate enough how happy I am to have a player of JJ's character on MY 76ers team. I am a huge UNC fan so all I've ever known abt JJ was during his Duke dys in those epic battles. I hated his guts. I love that this gives a look at the MAN he's grown into while also giving the viewer a peek into the uncertainty of free agency & the REAL LIFE part of the NBA and how it affects their psyche. Great stuff UNINTERRUPTED! Keep it coming.

Damn. Shoutout to Lebron for creating Undisputed, really great content

This was so insightful, well done JJ your are a true journey man! But I hope you find peace in Philly.

Damn Reddick went from being a third option guard during his Orlando Magic days to a starting role in Philly averaging almost 20 ppg. He really is the unsung hero on that Sixers team right now

So so interesting. I'd love more like this exploring the player's home life and decision-making. Thank you to JJ for sharing his personal life with us, good luck in the upcoming season.

This is a great short film honestly.

Welcome to New Orleans!

Love the perspective, thanks JJ and family.

Got nothin but mad love and respect for this man 🙏🏻

poor JJ he has to move his stuff every couple of years.. poor JJ the only thing he wants is stability but he is offered a 23million contract for 1 year only.. Thank you for shedding light on the traumatic experiences of an NBA player JJ! I hope one day Post NBA Stress Disorder will finally be recognized and you'll get a pension for that

One of the greats sharp shooters underrated AF

Fantastic work here!! The interview footage specifically looks amazing! Would you mind sharing what cameras were used for this?

loved it... great to get some real insights on what's happening behind the scenes..

great solid player, always hitting big 3's

I've never been a fan of him. I am now

I appreciate the video was shot. loving the video.

I love the honesty in the clip

okay, I don't mean to sound rude, but I find that JJ was a bit over-dramatic with this whole situation. He's walking into free agency as one of the most sought after shooting guards in the league. He knows his market value, and about how much ridiculous money he's going to make because of the salary cap increase. I understand how hard it is to become a pro athlete and how much time and effort it takes to become one of the most sought after shooting guards in the league. I also get that it's hard on a player's family too, but come on. All of that comes with the territory of being a pro athlete. He's making millions upon millions of dollars that most people in this country wouldn't even think of attaining anytime in their life. His life coming into this free agency is not that hard relatively speaking. I mean, imagine being one of the fringe players in the NBA with great potential but perhaps had their career derailed because of an injury, and are now either battling for a spot on a roster or are simply trying to start a new life outside of the NBA. I understand his wife's sentiment on how tough moving can be on her and her kids, but you can't always where you end up in the NBA. JJ can't just "take one for the team," and stay with one organization, as much as he would like to. An organization has every right to move him if it plays to their advantage. Regardless, this is a great video on what it is like to be an NBA player and what it must feel like to deal with being a commodity.

76ers in the playoffs this season!!! trust me

Watching this again. JJ signed with the Pelicans for a two year 26.5 Mil deal. Quite a pay he got. I'll dearly miss him with the Sixers. Sixers were my team since I got into basketball and JJ is one of my favorite players since he was with the Magic.

Thank you for this video, this really shows the actual life of an athlete dealong with pressure, decisions for the betterment of their family rather than the glamour life we sre

i am becoming a fan of this guy

Trust The Process!

This touched me in a profound way. Great job with this.

just got a whole new perspective on things now... good luck jj... i hope u find again what u once had in la with this new group... good luck

redick was awesome for us

He really said 30% salary 10% family

Thanks JJ for doing this

Incredible look into a humble, professional athlete's life. Incredible short documentary. Could you even imagine JJ on the Rockets??? That would be one heck of a team.

"Say Daddy be careful, thats a very expensive middle finger daddy" - Wife...? I ain't sayin' she a gold digger, but she ain't messin' with no broke finger bro bro broke ba broke

Hi JJ, i just want wish u a happy Chinese new year

Sheesh this is such a good video, great work guys

Beautifully filmed. Great video

Makes you think when he admits that family is only 10% when it comes to the decision. Must be tough on them.

damn the clippers could've at least called him July 1st to say thank you and that they would see what they can do

This insight was really perspective. loved watching it!

Need more of this sort of video, fantastic.

4:41 Watch out JJ, you might get fined lol

When Doc Rivers says "I just want to win", what he really means is "I want my son to be famous".

What a great insite to the process!! So hard for the players!!! It's business but makes you remember this is real life!! Great doco. Looking forward to the new podcast!!!

Awesome job this season in Philly JJ! It was fun watching you and what an exciting playoff run. I hope you stick around for a while man! TRUST THE PROCESS! GO SIXERS!!!

Not trying to sound like a jerk but i didnt like when the wife was complaining about where to live and vote for brooklyn lol. Have some perspective!!

I been to his house and repaired his fridge a few months ago here in brooklyn lol

Really such an amazing view on professional sports. It really moved me and showed me the sacrifice that these athletes have to endure as basic people as well. Look they are human ... they want families... they want the basic living standard of happiness. What a great documentary.

man. i wanna follow him like this throughout the season and next free agency

dude 10% of what you do is for your family? need to flip that around at 90% brother. when your focused on doing what's right for your family, then your game becomes easy

Its such a struggle having to move cities for 23mil a year. wahh

A lot of NBA players should do this. I really enjoyed this thanks.

He will forever be my favorite basketball player of all time, he works so hard to score

He's a smart and charismatic guy. He could succeed in ANY business, not just a basketball player.

Smart 2 sign for 23 mil. Once the team improve of course he gon be resigned so do yo thing JJ

I liked JJ as a player alot before. But this made me appreciate him way more as a person. Great content, and absolutely going to root for JJ to succeed even though I am from Boston

HARD work pays off thanks for the motivation

im overweight

Lol, he dosnt want to stay in Brooklyn because he dosnt want to play for brooklyn nets

WE NEED A PART 2

Loved this video. Keep doing what you're doing JJ!

Anyone hear after he BETRAYED the 76ers and all of Philadelphia?

Finally, a sports/nba personality documentary minus the same old mindless predictable RAP Talk cliches.. Like "it is what it is"... "gotta go get it".. "you know what im sayin".

People Care About Who They Might Get Instead Who They Have 💯💯💯 REAL SHIT

This video was dope. I now respect and understand JJ and every nba player much more. It's interesting to learn about the challenges, must be so hard to be completely away from family for those very long stretches of time. Not a 76ers fan, but if the Bucks don't win, I hope the Sixers do.
