Yeah, they aren’t a rich club. They found their lane and develop players for richer clubs to buy, thus funding a new generation. You are reading the article too literal. The point is they are producing professional players. Players that are helping their team. The conversation started with how youth coaching is failing American basketball players. American sports will not allow for a European scheme that involves transfer fees and promotion/relegation. But we can implement youth basketball players being coached by a skilled professional coach instead of the ninth grade algebra teacher or a drug dealer in AAU.

But a coach may not allow you to master the new skill because they need to win. A coach who is only into developing professionals will let you work out the kinks and try new things. That’s what we see. But beyond that, players aren’t learning the game well here. And I didn’t love drills either. I said I liked to just play the game.

I’m going to disagree here. Basketball is a fun sport to play. Some of my favorite games were just me and my brehs taking shots and doing whatever without a thought of the score. You are supposed to enjoy it first. Then you get competitive. By being good and getting promoted. And the younger players are mostly in an area around the club.

It’s about producing professionals. If you produce pros, especially for your team, then you are doing a good job. If you incentivize winning, you are going to do your best to win and ignore player development. Player transfers fund training. If one player produces a fee for the club, it can pay for the program for a while. This is about Ajax’s youth development program https://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/inside-ajax-how-become-worlds-greatest-talent-factory Another one about revenues https://edition.cnn.com/2019/02/13/football/ajax-youth-academy-spt-intl/index.html

This is what they do around the world. The NBA will never do it because of the cost and the NCAA. I’m going to assume they follow the same template as soccer in Europe. They don’t care about winning in youth soccer either. They only care about coaching proper technique. The other thing is the best coaches work with the youth.

We get away with it, or got away with it, because no other nation can produce elite athletes like the US. But in 2019, many of the best young players in the NBA are not American.

The parallel is the way soccer is structure in our country. Youth coaching is the big problem but basketball has larger participation levels so we don’t see as big of an issue. Youth coaching has always been bad but the Europeans have surpassed us in coaching and have innovated the sport more than Americans the last 20 years.

Paul George played in the 2016 Olympics. No one is going to talk about this in the media but US basketball youth coaching is poor and that’s why other nations have caught up. European youth coaches are much better than US youth coaches. I include college too.

Is this the right thread for this?

It’s like you haven’t been paying attention for nearly three years.

If you did, you would not have added that “wrong thread.” And bruh, my sides are currently hurting. For your sake I hope you misunderstood and it not be something more sinister by not caring about the content of his post.

Lmao at missing his point this badly.

Surprised at no mention of Kasim Hill transferring to Tennessee
