Steve Kerr says young basketball players ISO too much. Wants kids to also play soccer

[Listen]

I dunno about soccer but damn if the youth games aren’t way different now.

Got Kindergarten kids playing in private winter baseball leagues where I live. Got kids not trying out for the 7th grade basketball team because they are in a AAU program instead.

I watched a game of 5th and 6th graders where the two best kids on either team just ran lay up drills into traffic and only passed out of desperation and as soon as they didn’t have the ball they were SCREAMING the kids name they passed it to for the ball back lmao.

Definitely different than when I grew up.

Fool, if parents aren’t even signing their kids up to play team basketball and instead opt to have a personal trainer teach them skills for 8 hours a week instead, what does that have to do with coaching?

Kids are showing up in high school and college being able to do windmills and euro steps but don’t know how to L-cut or roll off a screen properly. Or cut when a defender’s head is turned. Coaches don’t have time to teach that to every individual player. Their job is to win games with the talent they have. Do you even know what you’re talking about?

Lol, so nows its parents fault their kids cant play team basketball. not the coaches of organized basketball who arent coaching. lol. its a coaching issue, and still not the kids fault. Lol.

I love how you ignorant sports folks cant see shyt outside of youe infatuation with a game.

There are more and more subtle signs of white supremacy you see from Kerr in the last few years

 

[The axe murderer]

the GOAT credited football/soccer with him being so devastating with his footwork

Came in to say this. The footwork in football and basketball

If it wasn't for MJ, KD, and Timothy isolating and scoring he wouldn't have his job or the overwhelming majority of his rings. nikka praising a regular playoff failure, when these ISO scorers are responsible for his entire life .

They have taken every measure to take ISO out of the game and manufacture a more wide open, up and down, anti-bigs/post play game and yet and still when it gets tight in May in June, that's pretty much what it comes down to. When nikkas get tired and the other team knows your sets all that cute shyt goes out the window and you gotta go get it.

100% of the so called problem is coaching, not attacking kids or daying they need to play another sport.

So you and kerr have no point

He isnt attacking kids. He's accepted the fact that coaching is shyt at the youth level and suggest kids saying another sport which emphasizes teamwork, with or without proper coaching. It's the ultimate team sport in that sense.

Soccer won't get rid of iso habits, people 'iso' in soccer too.

But how many guys are MJ and KD? I think his point is that lesser talented players are coming up playing Iso, but they don't have the ability to be that guy in the NBA. If they learned how to move without the ball, how to cut at the right angle..etc.. they would be better players. I don't think his message is in regards to the truly elite players. How many players in the league do you see that think they are elite and try to do it themselves.. and they just aren't that good?

 

[THE MACHINE]

Name 2 cacs as great passers what about CP3, what about Bron

And skipped right over Stockton, Magic, Mark Jackson, Bird, Jason Kidd and somehow ended up on fukking Toni Kukoc

Like the Bulls didn't already have 3 in the bag when he showed his doofy face. If only we passed like soccer players, maybe we could win a medal or two in our international play from time to time.
