The Best Way to Prove Yourself

All opinions expressed in the blog are solely my own. 

Sometimes looking backwards provides guidance on moving forward. Each team and player are unique. Solid teams can put up a 'stinker' like the Celtics did in NBA Finals game 4. They got outclassed, outhustled, and outperformed in a blowout. They grabbed their metaphorical lunchpails and won a championship the next game.

Last season MVB put up a few stinkers, too. I'd love to say "Hakuna matata," but that's not reality. Sometimes players tell each other after a bad play, "That's okay." Coaches cringe, knowing that championship teams realize that it's not. 

Find players who want success as badly as coaches do; then you get special.

Prove yourself every day.
