    I already posted a link to an article from last year talking about film sessions in which hjock made the snide comment "key word last year" and saw several other articles talking about film sessions. The team has a video coordinator (Kaleb Kanales and Eric Spoelstra both started as a video coordinators). Why would they employ a video coordinator and have him work with players on film if they don;t put much emphasis on it. Do yourself a favor and do a little research as the info is out there and have yet to see anyone post an article or supply any evidence that they don't use film sessions or only use them sparingly. Sometimes it just takes a little common sense as all team use film sessions and the only one that was saying we use very little is hjock and he provided no evidence other than something he remembers hearing.

    Where did I ever say you weren't entitled to your opinion? Unfortunately it appears you are relying on one member in the forum that showed nothing and you haven't done any research yourself.

    Are discussions not allowed in this forum now? Why are you discouraging a discussion?

    So again. 10 minutes or 10 hours of film.

    I read the link and i didnt see where it went into any type of details about what we are studying and looking for.
    I did read the rondo article/ interview where he said what hoop claims.

    No one, i dont think even hoop, is saying they dont watch film or even alot of film.
    Got any links showing the details of film study?

    If not, then why are we going round and round. Am i not entitled my thoughts as you are allowed yours?

    Show me some evidence and ill continue to form my opinion.
    If you want to refute my thoughts, then provide some facts/links. Thats what you do when you refute something so vehemently. You provide the facts in your argument. If you dont have facts them your opinion is no more valid than mine.
    So instead of telling me to do my research, please take your own advice and provide this info with your stance.
    Don't ask others to spend time doing the research for you.

    Appearances may be decieving.

    I read the same thing hoop did. Im not relying on hoop. Im relying on that rondo quote/interview.

    It seems you may be fixated on hoops stance and not the rondo quote he referenced.

    Discussions are allowed--as is conjecture about their value. I'll keep silent on the basis for my opinion.

    There was no evidence of a Rondo quote though and if there is, I would be interested in reading or hearing it so the context can be known. Where did you see it at? Also, Rondo doesn't play for the Blazers so it could have been him just trash talking like he often does. Also without context, it's basically not of much value. Did you watch the game last night? Did you hear Hurd mention something about film sessions?

    Can you answer me this question, why wouldn't any team use film sessions as part of their regime? and why hire a video coordinator for that to be available if such little emphasis is put into it?

    I will not answer your question because you are asking something that has been answered.

    Please read slowly for this to sink in because its been posted twice now.

    No one is saying they arent using film. Its all about how they are using it and how often.
    Why do you keep asking questions that have been answered?
    Are you not reading the responses?

    This is going nowhere....

    Okay, then where did you get the info of how the Blazers are using film sessions and how often?

    It's going nowhere cause you answer questions with "already been answered". A simple approach would be to answer the question again rather than dodging it and responding the way you did. That's how discussions go nowhere.

    A simple aproach would to be to read the posts answering the questions you are asking that have already been answered.

    Do you like to be asked to constantly repeat yourself?

    I dont know anyone who doesnt get annoyed by that.
    I fire guys at my work if they have to be told the same thing over and over and keep asking the same question. It shows either one of two things. They are too stupid to catch on or just simply arent listening. Either way i have no use for those types....

    yuyuza is right. done with you now...

    and what was that video suppose to show to support anything we are discussing. So far, your article and video show zero evidence of what you said prior unless you can point me to the spot in the article or video to support your take. No wonder you are done. You have nothing.

    Good bye.

    rotflmao! How immature. I bet your kids would be proud. Is this your way of being done? Hey, loved the two links that showed absolutely nothing to support your "opinion".
