2. When I initially began sharing these things (that some claim they already knew ) I didnt go to the old school card or do any name dropping until folks began acting as if I was crazy for mentioning these NBA philosophies.

3. If I didnt like the delivery of a person but the stuff they were delivering was substantial, I'm not going to object to it just because the delivery wasnt nice & sweet.
There's nothing nice & sweet about what we do...




No doubt BNR, first things first. Probably why the Professor started the 3 part video with defining PCAs & then took us to the graduates course.

Problem with some veterans is that they want you to ref your 3rd & your 3rd only even when they missed something obvious. Back in his prime, I guess it used to mean you were showing him up. In todays game, you say thanks & buy the man a beer!
I agree and disagree with you. Your first part is spot on IMO. The message should always be the most important thing...not the delivery.

So, who decides when someone has mastered their 1/3rd of the court? I haven't mastered mine yet so my partners are going to live and die with anything smaller than an elephant in their primary. If it is an elephant, I will help. IMO, THAT is the key. Too many people are so eager to call all over the court that they miss two players killing each other right in front of them.
