PDX Reign Basketball

All my kids years of travel\aau and school sports…ain’t none of them ever missed a practice. Not one. I didn’t allow it. 100% commitment. No excuses. Leave that for the non elite. They all started in college as freshman. Be different.

“Greatness is boring… there was a lot of boring days in the gym just working on my one dribble pull ups” - Anthony Edwards Love this

If AAU on all platforms was age level, 50% of the players stock would go way down. It should go age based and add 18u.

Never get sick of watching this clip Proves there are levels to this game that most people don’t even realize Want to be 6’1 in the NBA, better handle the rock like this

10 Inconvenient Truths of Coaching 1. Not every kid wants to be great. 2. You will often be misunderstood. 3. Some parents care more about playing time than team success. 4. Your best players aren’t always your best leaders. 5. No system works without buy-in. 6. Success brings criticism, too. 7. Culture isn’t built in a week, it’s built daily. 8. You can’t coach every player the same way. 9. Wins don’t always reflect your impact. 10. The job takes more from you than it gives… until years later. Still worth every second. Still a great profession.

Work on your craft My man just got a 4 year, 45 million dollar contract on skill, grit, and toughness Not a special athlete, but a special WORKER

“Everybody wants the glitz and glamour. Everybody don't wanna f****** work, strap their boots up and put on that hard hat and actually commit….You're more in love with the finish line than the process.” - Bron 👑 (h/t @swishcultures_ )

If you’re a high school athlete who actually wants to play in college — here’s how much time you really have: Freshmen — 1,350 days left Sophomores — 1,000 days left Juniors — 600 days left Seniors — 250 days left That’s it. Every day you skip lifts… every rep you coast through… every night you choose Xbox over sleep… You’re burning days off that clock. No one is waiting for you. No one is giving you extra time. Build your floor. Chase your ceiling.

@AtticusDraco He’s not hurt. Talked to my sister today… Go Cubs!

CR might be hurt & we don't know it #Cubs

Grow.

@HoopSource1 can you start providing scorekeepers for the games? Charging $15/parents & $10/kid for league play seems affordable. 80% of parents don’t get a bracelet to scorekeep because they have to get called out from the stands. Make a change. 🙏🏽

Criticism often stems from insecurity, and it says more about the person giving it than it does about you. #DailyWisdom

Being an elite former athlete DOES NOT, make you an elite coach.

@TheHoopHerald Because open gym runs have numerous guys who are trying to prove themselves which allows them to work on their game against guys playing 100% The all-star game is an event.

Honest question Why do NBA players play so hard in random open gyms in the summer but give no effort in The All Star game with millions watching?
