- Basketball training and language learning have surprisingly a lot in common and we can learn a lot but what works and what doesn't work when it comes to both of them..
If you are a basketball coach or player it is very important to understand the importance of exposure first and accuracy second.. whats the best way to learn a language, do you think it sitting in a class in a comfortable environment and progressively learning or throwing yourself to the fire and going to a country and learning the language?
The same is true for basketball, one of the best ways to learn and teach, especially for youth basketball players, is by throwing them to the fire, letting them play and figure it out. Then as they get older we can focus in on certain aspects.
The same reason most people take a language learning class for years and never learn it, is the same reason why most players don't get better
Boring, no content within the learning environment, learn it in pieces and then try to put it back together, and no real challenge or uncomfortability. The same is true with the way most people train and coach basketball

So true. Learning German right now as a class, and it is very boring. I already know from basketball and the points you made that none of it will really be beneficial if I really want to learn the language. Honestly, I don’t know how the heck “learning” became so much about a progressive build up rather than just being exposed to the topic, then fixing the mistakes afterward.
Also, most classes are geared towards these counter-productive ways of “teaching” students boring topics that discourage creativity and that students will never use.
EXACTLY, most kids don’t learn shit in these classes the way they teach, better off throwing on an interesting show in that language in the class and just letting it go 😂
Fred Van Fleet out here trynna learn Italian 😂 love it, man
😂😂😂😂
Agree
How would you go about approaching kids that are just lackadaisical when it comes to working out, or going through the motions the whole time?
Make it fun is the biggest thing, gotta meet people where they are, get them the most development while still ensuring it’s enjoyable enough FOR THEM to want to keep coming back

I disagree bro. How will you speak Italian and improve if you dont have the right vocabulary or dont have vocabulary at all. Just by going there and talking random stuff to people wont do the Trick, because in real life situations people arent patient with you when they notice that you dont speak the language and will switch to English. Same thing with ball: you go to a park and dont know how to shoot. You make 5 airballs, getting blocked, whatever and your teammates wont pass you the ball anymore.
So, of course you got to put yourself in situations that challenge you, but first of all you have to learn the basics, like vocabulary, tenses, dribbling, shooting.
Best way to improve is learning the skill and applying it directly shortly after in real life, meaning doing both things at the same time over a long period of time. Just my 2 cents
I get what you are saying but again getting the wrong point. You are taking the absolute extreme of the example. Going to the park could be by yourself, or a player of similar skill. The best players in the world didn’t start with perfect ideal training in an isolated environment. Most of them spent years at the park before they did any of these formal “drills”
Same way you learned to speak English… did you not grow up hearing people speak the language for years before you were even taught the ABCs?? You learned how to speak by trying and messing up words and piecing them together mostly from exposure, then slowly overtime you learned to improve it… think about it like that
I half disagree. They can't learn a skill just by playing. They need to be taught how to do it then they can take it to the court and grow. But they need the skill first.
They definitely don’t need the skill to go play, almost everyone starts by playing, acquiring some skill and then go train and fine tune
