A coach can teach. A player learning is another issue.


I said on a couple of occasions during today's game that our basketball IQ seems a bit low. That type of thing is hard to pick up on during the recruiting process. It happens in all sports. Gordy Bryan was a McDonald's AA out of Philly. Never lived up to his potential. Reality is you don't teach 2 footers. IMHO, the problem all year is that we get into too much of a rush to make things happen. Every one wants to be the hero. We need to relax and simply let the game come to us. Relax, have fun and good things will happen. I see this as a part of expecting to lose as opposed to expecting to win. We are still learning to win.
