    As a senior in hs, Jordan Poole came off the bench. He didn’t start a game his 1st year at Michigan. He spent last year in the G-League. He’s now averaging 30ppg in the NBA Playoffs. Just because it’s not your turn right now doesn’t mean your time isn’t coming. Keep working.

    I am not black, and I see you. I am not black, and I hear you. I am not black, and I mourn with you. I am not black, and I see the injustice that you face daily. I am not black, and I see your fear for your sons and even your daughters. I am not black. I do stand with you.

    I love seeing HC’s allow their assistants to draw up last minute plays in the huddle. Says a lot about the HC and the confidence they have in their Xs and Os coach!

    The stack flare is a good play by itself, but Brad Stevens and the Celtics add a backdoor action to it to create an advantage.

    Overload the weak side vs. a zone to create a spacing advantage. Villanova ran this 3 side overload on the weak side of the floor vs. a zone defense to create a 2-on--1 advantage.
