Steve Nash sobre o desenvolvimento do basquete nos Estados Unidos atualmente “Nos Estados Unidos, é pay to play: você paga para jogar. O capitalismo é maravilhoso, mas para desenvolver jogadores, não é o melhor modelo. Na Europa, para jogar, é gratuito. Você vai ao clube do bairro. É mais ou menos subsidiado, principalmente pela comunidade. Então não existem motivações escondidas. Não tem essa coisa de: ‘precisamos ganhar a qualquer custo, senão o garoto vai para o clube ao lado’. Lá, de forma geral, todo mundo está ali pensando no desenvolvimento a longo prazo. E eu acho que isso também forma treinadores. Existem milhares de excelentes técnicos nos Estados Unidos — não é como se só houvesse bons treinadores na Europa. Aqui também tem técnicos incríveis. Mas lá eles têm uma estrutura em que, geralmente, você fica mais ou menos com os mesmos treinadores e aprende a jogar basquete da maneira certa, dentro do contexto certo. Aqui, tudo foi completamente comercializado, e isso torna muito difícil para um treinador assumir um programa ou um garoto e dizer: ‘vamos te desenvolver corretamente, como grupo, jogando um basquete técnico, coletivo, e aprendendo a jogar de diferentes formas’. Aqui é muito mais: ‘entra no teu bag, trabalha teus skills’. Um treinador de fundamentos vai te cobrar por hora na quadra do parque, ou onde for. Sinceramente, isso foi longe demais. E, infelizmente, não quero tirar dinheiro do bolso de ninguém, mas isso deixa a estrutura muito complicada para ensinar as crianças a jogar pensando no longo prazo.”

Cam Ward is absolutely FILTHY. One of the best throws you will ever see.

FACTS “Rebounding is 100% effort... You’re either too cool for it, too soft, or you're too lazy. God forbid you’re all three." - Mick Cronin

Players, I'm not telling you to be pass first. I am telling you if someone has a better shot...give the ball up. Sometimes drive to pass. He don't have to shoot every time you get it.

If you want to optimize your offense - the fastest way to do this is by improving shot selection. - right people taking right shots at right times - having a system so players know what a good shot vs. a great shot vs. a bad shot is - participating in difficult conversations that define roles This is one of the few things you have control over as a coach. Don't sleep on its impact.

A reminder for youth basketball coaches starting their season: Stop wasting so much time putting in set plays - most of them don’t work anyway. Teach your players how to space the floor and recognize opportunities to create advantages. That’s what actually translates to games.

Why are zero politicians talking the insurance cost crisis - property, health, auto, etc Insurance is in an upwards spiral right now and as demographics worsen, it's going to get much worse

So if voting for Democrats doesn't work... ...and voting for the Republicans makes it even worse What are we supposed to do?

Food trucks used to sell you 3 of the best tacos you've had in your life for $5 cash only and then people with Masters degrees started buying them and now it's 3 of the worst tacos you've had in your life for $18.50 plus a recommended 20% tip

Over 16k Americans weighed in on the click-to-cancel rule, overwhelmingly supporting our effort to end subscription traps. The rule was set to go into effect in May but this @FTC slow-walked it—and now a court has tossed it out, claiming industry didn’t get enough of a say. Anyone frustrated by how difficult firms make it to cancel subscriptions can tell the @FTC commissioners to re-issue the rule and urge members of Congress to make it law.
