Dudes don't put in work in the summer like they used to. Kobe came back every summer with a new skill. New move. New footwork. If you aren't actively getting better, you're getting worse. Staying the same is not an option when the field is getting better.

One dude ive seen improve each year is Klay. Used to be a strictly catch and shoot player coming into the league, then he developed a midrange off of a curl like rip hamilton, then a post game turn around against smaller defenders, and now he’s willing to drive the lane, stop and hit that 15 footer. Like watchin my son grow

If klay ever developed a lay up package. MVP

but this ******* guy cant dribble for ****
 
Yeah, I wonder why Klay didn’t improve his ballhandling. He plays next to Steph who constantly worked on his.

Yeah, this really isn’t true. You think Blake Griffin became a good 3 point shooter compared to how he started by just ******* around in the Summer? How did Giannis get better? LeBron consistently got better each year, etc.

You might be turning into a get-off-my-lawn old head, bro...
 
You have the book? If so is it good?
I don't have it, I'll just wait for the main ideas to be poached and shared. I find it interesting that he's an analytics guru who isn't really interested in having the game be played out as such
