Just wanted to share this blog by Nick Collison that he wrote for GQ Magazine. It's a great blog because it highlights what the average player needs to do to be successful. I am giving this article to all of our players tomorrow because it's something we all need to do better at - playing our role to the fullest. I don't think any player is ever going to be satisfied with their role, but they need to perform their role in order for our team to be successful. It's also important because at some point every player will not be the star anymore and will need to know how to accept and thrive in an alternative role. It's also a life lesson about finding our role in whatever job we have down the road. I would read it and pass it onto all of your players!Some kids wanted to be firemen when they grew up, some wanted to be astronauts, some wanted to be ninjas, but I wanted to coach high school basketball. This is a blog about coaching basketball and basketball in general. I have a deep passion for basketball and am going to use this blog to share that passion with others as well as expand my own knowledge and ideas. I might post Xs and Os, drills, coaching ideas, or just random thoughts on basketball. Enjoy!
