Just when you thought the Mavs “leadership” was done with horrible decisions…
I’m not a Mavs fan anymore. After seeing how they treat their fans who actually paid for tickets… Kicking a guy out for mouthing Fire Nico in the final nail in my fandom coffin. Never again. Go @Lakers #mffl is a fu*king lie. Fu*k you @NicoHarrisonGM

Well said. And maybe I like this because I’m much like the latter one mentioned.
You can be a schematic genius and not make a good head coach. And that's okay. You can be a great head coach and very much the guy no one wants to let near the whiteboard. And that's okay, too.

Can someone explain this to me from the Mavs perspective? Did Luka secretly want out of Dallas?
BREAKING: The Dallas Mavericks are trading Luka Doncic, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick, sources tell ESPN. Three-team deal that includes Utah.

Just remember they don’t trust the message until they trust the messenger. Build trust first then be that coach.
THIS IS IT⬇️❤️

They’d immediately have the best pro basketball team name in America. This has to happen, right?
This is too perfect not to happen

Seeing this after waking up at 4:30am to drive 2 hours for my daughter’s volleyball tournament, I support Kanell2028
When I’m president the first executive order I will sign will be a law preventing youth sports from starting any games before 8:00am #Kanell2028

Coaches- I need advice. We can’t shake the turnover issues that have plagued us for years. Done film, drills, SSG, charted and started, emphasized, etc. We’ve worked hard and they want to improve. So - give me your best drills, games, resources, videos, teaching points, etc!!

Tomorrow, the gym will be full of new people. Many of them overweight, lost, and in your way. You have a responsibility to encourage them. Smile, high-five, whatever. It probably took a lot for them to show up. Tearing them down does not make you fitter; it makes you an asshole.

This is great advice for coaches, parents, or leaders in any organization. People love to win. Let them know when they’re achieving small wins.
If an athlete does something right in training LET THEM KNOW That way they know to do it again Reinforce it

The Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Knicks roasting is top tier online entertainment. It also speaks to the team culture, one that can handle an intense postseason. The east should be concerned.

10 days after having a baby, she coaches her team to a Big 12 win. Not a program that talks about strong women, a program that is MADE of them. This is leadership. This is sisterhood. This is UNcommon. 🧡

Well this take of mine aged like milk.

Most times when I ask a kid “how did you play?” And I get “I scored X goals/baskets/etc” (or the parent says it). I always follow up with “awesome! But how did you play?” Most times they’ll give a decently thoughtful response. Let’s encourage kids to think about the whole game.
Parents, take heed to what I am telling you. Stop telling your kids to score. YOU are stunting their development. Kids have no clue what to do if they don’t have the ball. Too many kids think score, score, score. Not a good thing at all. Be smart or find out later.
