[Steve Dagostino @DagsBasketball]

This also should open up the eyes of players, parents of players, agents of players eyes to the need for a ‘Chief Development Officer’ for player.
Someone that can connect the dots and manage their development to maximize their current role and future roles - relying solely on the team is malpractice bc that team can change many times over.

@Barlowe500 always very honest with his scouting and assessments. Self awareness is an underrated quality that very few possess!

[Rafael Barlowe @Barlowe500]

When players don’t succeed everyone points to stats, percentages, physical tools etc.

I’m a firm believer lottery picks don’t fail because of lack of talent. I think it has more to do with fluctuating confidence, situation/fit, poor habits + how they handle basketball adversity and the NBA lifestyle.

It's never been easier to make it to the NBA, but it's also never been harder to stay.

Must read for college players & coaches!

I was completely sold on Rob Dillingham as a lottery pick.

Two years later, three teams have moved on, and he's out of the NBA.

Are teams becoming less patient with young players, or did scouts like myself simply get it wrong?

This is PHENOMENAL work by @Barlowe500!!!

Must read for all development coaches and college programs!

[Rafael Barlowe @Barlowe500]

The NBA's "second draft" is already underway for several 2023 lottery picks.

Taylor Hendricks. Jett Howard. Gradey Dick. Jordan Hawkins.

Four players. Four different situations involving injuries, limited opportunities, shooting struggles and questions about development.

Did teams lose patience, or were the original evaluations wrong?

My latest on the NBA's second draft and how quickly things can change for young lottery picks.

Charlie Munger on the secret to life.

“I just stay away from the problems that can’t be fixed and pick the ones that can."

"I don’t like unlimited failure. I don’t want to fish forever and never catch a fish. I have to have some reinforcement. And so I pick some things that can be done and do them."

"But I do think that if you’re reasonably obsessed with something, even if it’s intermittent, and you have a long attention span, you keep working over the serious problems, that you’ll stumble into an answer. That’s half the secret of life.”

— Charlie Munger
