Just a few words,No one ever said that you were being critical of the kid, in fact the original blog was just my assestment of the kids game which was in response to someone else assestment. Posistion and help defense are probably some of his strongest assest, in fact he has a habit of over playing help defense but he's usually able to get back to his man,however you have to have an understanding of the game to comprehend this .In addition to the two support system that you mentioned, he does have additional family, friends and resources that have been in basketball for years. So your comments WELL COACH- lets stick to the basketball

Agree. Just one final note. I pointed out positioning and help defense as one of criticisms of the last game. Youngstown got off a few too many uncontested 3's. On several occasions, our guards were getting picked or failed to anticipate and switch when a screen was developing. Sometimes hard to cite or call out any one individual for this.
Again, the team is making progress and, those that have been critical should at least acknowledge that the kids are now buying into and absorbing what the staff is teaching. This is particularly satisfying to me since, as you might be aware, I proudly bear and own the colors of board apologist.
