Centrals Div 1 coaching line-up
"Being a good player or good athlete does not mean you will have the ability to transpose knowledge"
LOL, you are 100% correct, just because you are a great player in any sport doesn't mean you are going to be a great coach. Some of the best coaches were hopeless as players.

Pretty sure an elite athelete can teach young kids about dedication, what it takes to win etc.
Doesn't have to be a hoops person to coach kids.
Side note : Does Charlie Walsh know anything about football? Pretty sure he is extremely sought after. Ric Charlesworth??

Do they still hav a girls program at centrals? They seem to have losses from the girls side and made adds to the boys!!!

"Did Sean Carlin play basketball at the Olympics?"
Are you serious??
One of the best hammer throwers that we have produced! Salisbury East lad as well.

You're dead right about Toby having to take a few chiil pills. An very very talented coach, if he just concentrated on that and not the officiating then he'll go far!!

Reading this article about Tim Duncan's new contract extension:

Made me think about the long struggle of Garnett in Minnie. The point that stood out in the article is that Duncan reportedly signed for significantly less than "market value" to allow the Spurs to build around him.
I understand that Garnett was one of the highest paid players in the league for years at Minnesota (and still is at Boston). Could it be that when he signed for the max a few years back he crippled any chance of Minnie putting a decent support crew around him?
Much is made of the incompetence of McHale and previous front office crew at Minnie, but were their hands tied to an extent?
Are there any die-hard Minnie fans out there who can comment? Are there any other players that have brought a similar fate on themselves? Maybe Kobe?
