I meant at the start when he's explaining the terms, it would be easier to memorize and visualize seeing an actual example right after instead of being shown much later on in the video

normally when watching basketball, I only watch the player holding the ball, but after several episodes of this podcast, I started watching the other 9 players, and what they'll do. And you can actually see the plays they are talking about in this podcast. I love it!

JJ drawing up "Pistol" and "Oklahoma" (which we called 'Chicago') brings up so many great high school hoops memories. I'm sure there are many out there who watch ball and look out for certain plays and actions like this. Always so fun to see the execution on a high level.

This is cause and effect basketball. Too many players in the league think athletic ability trumps everything so they refuse to think the game thru. I was a victim of this early on in my football days. You’ll see DBs getting burned because they take the bait not realizing they are being played the whole time. The moment you bring your brain to the game everything changes.
