Coach Matt's Process for Turning a New Play Into a Trusted Staple
Keep the session moving with another watch from the same channel.
Coach Matt Majkrzak drops a subbing philosophy every coach at every level needs to hear.
A player came to him and said he'd rather play 8 predictable minutes than 20 random ones. That conversation changed how Majkrzak manages his rotation entirely.
Think about what he's saying here. When a guy knows he's in at the 16 minute mark and out at 12, he's not pressing to "get hot" so he doesn't get pulled. He's not gripping up over one mistake. He can just play basketball.
Predictability isn't about coddling guys, it's about giving them the mental freedom to actually perform. I think way too many coaches undervalue this and wonder why their role players look tight when they check in. #shorts
