1. Launching a successful site is like hitting a clutch game winning 3 pointer to beat the buzzer. Finish practice, finish plays, finish quarters, and finish games.
2. Strong teamwork skills makes a team better. Learning to pass, delegate, and share responsibilities lets everyone demonstrate and improve their strengths. A balanced attack will lead to good numbers. If they’re not on your team - it’s only business. (I still miss ben wallace)
3. It takes depth on the roster to compete. The starting 5 isn’t always enough. Leaders must be willing to step up and demonstrate by example in the face of adversity.
4. Ya gotta be hungry to win. The game is played far before the showdown. Planning, preparation, and practice are paramount. These games take heart.
5. Communication is key. Talk with your teammates.
6. Experience is important. Wiley veterans with heart can outplay even the most amazingly talented youngsters. Problems are inevitable, but an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. An adapting offense and defense thrives in a dynamic environment. You have to be ready for whatever the opponents throw at you.
7. Great outside linking (or passing) scores points.
8. Mastery of fundamentals builds champions. Every play counts once the clock is running.
9. Hook shots can be ugly but effective.
10. You can’t overestimate the importance of strategy, energy, execution, and focus. Champions play great defense.

I GuaranSheed that eastern conference champs is a given.
How does anyone from the west really thing they can beat the D? The Warriors might be the only team able to take it more than 6.
