Play off your great player... great teams have a go-to player and they play off of him.
Put your two best players away from the ball and bring it back to them.
Good shooters take the shots; best shooters take most of the shots.
If you can do something and not blow your own horn, it sure sounds a lot better.
Recognize and reward players who put the team first, not just the gifted ones.
It is foolish to expect a young man to follow your advice and to ignore your example.
