89. Why Most Players Don't Know How to Actually Play Basketball with Rob Crawford
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most players think development is about getting shots up and going through drills. But what actually separates the players who make it from the ones who don't isn't the volume of reps — it's the compete level behind them. In this conversation, Obi and Rob break down what real player development looks like, why so many talented players still can't translate their work into games, and what coaches are actually watching for on recruiting visits.
They also get into the mental side of shooting slumps, what overseas basketball teaches you that college never could, and why the kids who don't want to play 21 are the same kids wondering why they're not getting minutes.
