Message: [QUOTE="gtcam, post: 3453043, member: 2844"] Sharon T was simply expressing an opinion, as we all do here. You call her opinion annoying yet your reply was nothing less than a snarky retort. Now you are the armchair SC coach? Or by your reaction, are you Sal? I do not agree with Sharon that there may be a correlation between Polley and Akok's injury and the SC coaching they received - may have had a bit of an impact but unproven in my eyes I do believe that JC's overall game has been affected by the type of weight gain process and muscle building he undertook during the off season. Speed being mental is an excuse and false in Carlton's situation. Its not speed he is lacking, it's fluidity and comfort in making adjustments. I have also seen him make some very good passes. I have 25 plus years coaching athletes up to and including the D1 level and have had plenty of them who had blazing speed; yet without being fluid while performing their actions has made them appear clumsy. Carlton is not slow - I have seen him recover with speed when he needs to. All athletes are prone to injury - no matter the size or physical make-up. I know what proper warm ups look like and watching many pregame rituals I see very little productive stretching in many sports. A skinny kid with little muscle mass who jump stops or block puts stress on their body also and is just as likely to suffer an injury as 6'9" kids who have bicep sized legs. BTW- she/he never said the team doesn't warm-up - they alluded to possible lack of proper warm-up stretching The following things are unneeded IMHO: [I][B]Just because you sneer at the lunk alarm at planet fitness 2x a week doesn't mean you have a clue how to train d1 athletes. People like you are 100x worse than nelson and pal to me. Having torn your ACL qualifies you to do nothing. Stop being so annoying -[/B][/I]If the post annoys you, you have a low tolerance level RELAX and disagree without throwing spears [/QUOTE]
