Message: [QUOTE="Hunt for 7, post: 5339784, member: 12414"] On Adama: There is a difference between telling a player if you pass make sure it serves a purpose and you are confident that you are seeing enough of the floor that you don’t turn a pass into a turnover. Than just saying hey you stink at passing so never pass the ball. Then in practice the player starts to hone this part of his craft then he has the confidence to make meaningful possession changing passes during a game without having to worry about whether it is going to work or not. Letting players develop and become confident enough to take certain things into a game is what coaching is all about. The comment on AJ do you really think the coaches did not know his skill set until halfway through his junior year? They just needed to figure out how to maximize it and make it fit with what they were asking the other 4 players on the floor to do. [/QUOTE]
