[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Watched the Deal game yesterday and wow has the talent pool taken a deep dive. I have plenty of friends kids that were cut that can play ten times better than majority of kids on the team. Deal has always been known to be highly competitive but that era has ended with the bad decisions of this coach. [/quote]

I'm pretty sure that this parent knows nothing about basketball, or they would have more objective criteria for why they think kids who were cut should not have been.  If they had said "I know 10 kids who started for TTO teams that won X, Y and  Z tournaments" that might have some credibility.  Seeing your kid's friends play on the playground doesn't tell you anything. [/quote]

Right?! I’ve seen both teams play. They another have 2-3 really good players then fill ins. No way anyone cut was 10 times better. Maybe competitive to a kid on the bench but that can vary in the eye of the beholder or not so much with someone with a lot of basketball/coaching skill. I’ve coached many b-ball teams. On the naked eye, two kids could be similar in talent, but one could have a fierce advantage due to many things. [/quote]
