But I'm sure as heck not going stroll 94' to the other end of the court when my partners are waiting on me. And if the reason you make your crew wait for you to walk that far is because Mr. Tolliver told you to, then that's called "big-timing", IMHO. |
No I'm not working D-League games. BUT when learning to bake a cake who shall I allow to teach me... The neighborhood lady or Sara Lee??
That's the problem, people want to be critical of where the information comes from instead of being open to it. Everything the Pros do can be applied at all levels.
Different rules, floor mechanics & signals... YES.
But at the end of the day, as long as the rims are 10' & they play 5 on 5 & the FT line is 15' & we have boundary lines... BASKETBALL IS BASKETBALL.
To be quite honest, until I started getting the top notch info my scholastic career was quite lame. I also didnt work any college or pro levels. The season after I went to the D-League camp (nope didnt get hired obviously) I applied the info that I obtained & got to R a State C'Ship in year 4. All my other opportunities came that summer.
That's no coincidence
FTR, big timing isnt even a thought process, but you will either get on board with the program or get left behind.
