I had the opportunity years ago to attend a one-man coaching clinic. It was a two-day clinic and I learned a LOT of basketball. He was one of the best teachers of the game, ever! He forgot more about the game than we ever knew.

His name? Bobby Knight

But..... I know more about handling young men than Bobby ever knew. I'd never play well with his style in treating players. I don't see how anyone can be their best when they are constantly berated and their coach uses fear as a motivator. There are a lot more positive ways to correct a player.
