  • I was listening to a podcast the other day and they were talking about something similar to this. It was more of a why don’t stars make as good of a coach as a guy that bounces around the league. The stars typically play for one team and therefore learn a very limited number of schemes while the guys bouncing around have to learn several.

    They used Wayne Gretzky as an example of a star not being a successful coach. Apparently in practice he was criticizing a player for not being to see something. I don’t remember what it was or if they even said. The point of it though was that for some players, especially the stars, the game slows down so much that the average person or even some other players just can’t see it. You can’t coach that vision.
