STREETBALL.CO.UK
In May 2000, Greg set up Streetball.co.uk. It went on to become one of Europe's most popular basketball websites - averaging over 100,000 visitors and 1 million page impressions per month during its heyday. Greg traveled extensively covering the sport - interviewing everyone from Michael Jordan to NBA Commissioner David Stern. Advertisers included Nike, Reebok, Adidas, the RAF, EA Sports and many, many more.
BASKETBALL 24/7
In 2008, Greg helped to launch Basketball 24/7 - a website covering more mainstream, global basketball.
In October of that year, Greg filmed a video of his brother beating NBA star Devin Harris in
a game of one-on-one. The clip went viral - notching up over 4.5 million views and featuring on networks including
ESPN, Fox News, CNN and Sky Sports as well as in publications such as Sports Illustrated, The New York Times, The Daily Mail and The Sun.
In fact, "Stuart Tanner basketball" was the most-searched term on Google on October 14th 2008!
The following year, another of Greg's videos went viral.
A clip of world renowned dunker Guy Dupuy putting down a ridiculous slam
at an event in London racked up 2.6 million views, got airplay on multiple networks in the States, featured on the homepage of Yahoo! and had the L.A. Times labeling it "the greatest dunk of all time".
