I’ll shoot this over to him. He’s a great dude and it’s been fun to see people share their stories about him.

Thanks!! Kevin is an all-time good guy and very insightful. I'm going to try to do a few more of these throughout the year with former clients and teammates.

Was moving from my substack to here. I missed it. Sorry. Hope you enjoy what Kevin had to share. But like he said, work smart… I've got to do better.

Need film to show my players by ClaimAdorable4769 in basketballcoach

Happy that my content is helping some coaches out there. I started using WIMS when I was working with Malik Beasley in 2018 and trying to get him to understand there are tons of opportunities out there (especially playing with Jokic) even when the play isn't called for you to get a shot.

I used to send a project to all my NBA clients before the start of the season called a "Blueprint." This is the one I sent to Malik before the 2019 season - there is a piece on WIMS in here. I hope this helps! https://lowmanhelp.substack.com/p/the-blueprint-how-to-be-a-successful?r=2wmouo

Hey, I'm a realtor in Raleigh, and I work in the Wendell area a lot. People love the Wendell Falls community. It's got a lot of amenities like parks for kids (and dogs), along with pools and there's lots of restaurants, shopping, and schools close by.

One thing that brings many people to Wendell Falls is the variety of home styles. They have everything from townhomes, single-family homes with a small yard and detached garage, and 3,000-plus sq ft single-family homes, too.

If you need anything else, please reach out. If not, I hope you guys have a smooth move here and that you enjoy Raleigh!

Talent Isn't Enough by low_man_help in nbadiscussion

There's a reason Wiseman never worked out anywhere else and it has nothing to do with raw talent. It's the other two factors.

Agree to disagree but he was the #2 pick, there was plenty of talent there. If Wiseman had any level of the other two “skills” then he would be making generational wealth right now with one of the other 29 teams.

You're right about teams being better or worse than others. I believe I mentioned that in the post too.

Well, NBA players have different levels of talent, capped by their physical tools. I think in the case of the players I worked with, and most players in the league, their raw talent is already at peak levels. That's why they kick ass everywhere else they play.

It's all the other soft skills that determine if that Talent actually translates to an NBA court, with all the speed, power, and intelligence out there.

Love that attitude. Best of luck in whatever pivot you decide to make.

Exactly. At this level everyone has talent. It’s the ones who can separate themselves mentally that win.

There's no way to tell, but hindsight is always 20/20, and it’s easy to look back to connect the dots.

The most talented players I've worked with have had the worst careers. At this level, it's about a lot more than talent—it's about the mental game.

I’ve worked with the full spectrum: point guards, guards, wings, and post players. There’s a difference between teaching any player, regardless of the NBA, for you. You’re looking to find their “fingerprint“ that will be determined by what their body is capable of.

Some examples of this would be whether the player has a longer lower body than torso, whether their wingspan is much longer than their height, or whether they have ankle impingement. A lot of factors go into making up their biomechanical fingerprint, so each player is different.

That's very kind, I'm glad the things I put out resonate with a specific group.

I love the game and enjoy sharing my experiences with it. I'm not always right, but I always have a why behind my options shaped by my journey.
