Durant didn't fire back at anything. Well compared to Kevin Durant . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Spoelstra worked his up from being a video guy. I think most NBA coaches didn't even play that high level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, Sanchez, I'm sure you or Zach Lowe could walk off the street and explain the intricacies of the game to Kevin Durant. People often underestimate the complexity of professional sports.

Lowe talks to coaches/gms/analysts and watches games for a living. I guarantee you Lowe spends way more time studying basketball than KD does, and it probably wouldn't be close. KD has had probably 8 hours of podcasting on the BS pod and not a single thing he said was profound (as far as on the court basketball). This isn't football.

It doesn't mean it holds any water. I'm sure Lowe could talk circles around KD about "certain things." I'm sure KD could talk circles around Lowe about "certain things" pertaining to actually playing pro basketball. Lowe writes for a living. KD plays the game for a living. You're nuts if you think KD isn't "studying" the game he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Jason Kidd is a Hall of Famer and "knows the game of basketball" but I'd take Lowe 1000x over him to run my team. Why? Because one of them is an ignorant know it all and the other actually understands the game and trends. Just because someone plays a sport at a high level doesn't mean they know more. Who you trust to build your team? Michael Jordan or Gregg Popovich? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok explain to me how the three best coaches (Brad Stevens, Greg Popovich, and Eric Spoelstra) have a combined zero NBA playing experience, or even high level D1 experience? It certainly would be blasphemous to say they don't know basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, Sanchez, you could probably be a brilliant basketball mind if you worked for years as an assistant coach under brilliant head coaches at the college and pro level. Nobody is saying you can't be. You have to put in the work and have people to mentor you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
