Just read article in Scientific American that says that although individual talent improves a team, there is a point after which there is too much talent and performance decreases. It made me think of Ky this year.
"First, Swaab and colleagues found that the percentage of top talent on a team affects intrateam coordination. For the basketball study, teams with the highest levels of top performers had fewer assists and defensive rebounds, and lower field-goal percentages. These failures in strategic, collaborative play undermined the team’s effectiveness. "
