With so many games being played and such an emphasis on individual training. Has the emphasis on winning and competing as a team been lost? Is there value in so many games being played for players?.

What your "WHY"?.
"Are we here if we grow up in Chicago? Are we as close as we are if we grow up in Chicago? . Many times we don't get what we want, we get what we need. That 1,000 square foot cinder block house gave us both what we needed to be able to be where we are right now." - Sterling

The high school freshman year is where players have the most regret in terms of developing their bodies and having the discipline to separate themselves mentally.

I think it's tougher for kids to retain information much less multi-task. 🥴😞😑

In the gym watching games. EVERYONE on the court is a guard and yet the decision making is nonexistent!. PLEASE, be honest with these little ass guards and let them know if they can’t defend, get paint touches and make others better they’ll be done once their HS career ends!.

AAU season review: I saw a lotta players with next level dreams with completely underwhelming work ethics, lack of communication, accountability, competitiveness, and defensive effort. It's getting bad out here!!! 😑😞 Dark Thought ©️.

I'm sure every AAU Coach saw that note attached to every player saying, Lil Johnny needs to work on XYZ. I'm responding with Lil Johnny didn't get to over dribble, split triple teams, take step back NBA 3's, and play no defense over here. Good luck with Lil Johnny this season. 😆.

I wonder if this 2026 class of players has researched 1 dream college and 9 realistic colleges to see if they would be a fit or have reached out to college coaches to see if there would be any opportunities available. Dark Thought©️.

Not 1. Not 2. Not 3. Not 4. Not 5. Not 6 but 7 players from the 2025 class will be playing at the next level. Pop ya collar Family Ties Basketball. Stacking days and making plays one day at a time. Opportunity + Development + Hard work helps create a culture.
Congratulations to our 2025 class for getting the opportunity to play at the next level. Thank you, parents, for trusting Family Ties with your child. Thank you to everyone who played a pivotal role in helping these young men take the next step in their basketball careers.

These kids take playing organized basketball for granted. The will to compete is getting lost. Dark Thought©️.

TABC notes. Why are players set up beyond the NBA 3 point line for catch and shoot opportunities?. Are players trying to show coaches they can be disciplined or undisciplined players?.

TABC notes and annoyances . Walking the ball up to let the zone set up. Not boxing out in TABC games is crazy. Not talking in a TABC game is crazy .Not closing out with high hands is crazy.
