Bobby Knight’s assessment on Jordan as the best basketball player he’s ever seen was the best observation in the history of sports.
@marvinolds6671
@marvinolds6671 6 ай бұрын
Yes, even before Jordan dribbled a ball in an NBA game! To put his basketball reputation on the line saying such a thing was bold and courageous, but turned out to be absolutely true. Simply incredible foresight. Goes to show how much knowledge and mastery of the game he had.

To give everyone a context of why Bobby Knight was talking about screening: In the Gold Medal game, they were up at halftime 29 points, playing 20 minute halves. Out of the 20 minutes, MJ played 12 out of 20 minutes and has this ridiculous stat: 11 rebounds, 9 assists, 19 points So Bobby Knight had to try to think of something to motivate the team and yell something to Mike, and at the last minute he thought of berating Jordan on the lack of screens he's setting. It's the ONLY thing he could yell at Mike for LOL

Coach Knight was supposedly talking to the Trailblazers about potential prospects for the 84 Draft after the Olympics. He was selling MJ as the best player he had ever seen and Portland was saying that they had a 2 guard in Drexler already and that they needed a center. Knight's response.... "Well play him at fucking center then"

True story. Will try to keep it short. Have a free day off while on a business trip to Washington state. Im from Ohio. Always wanted to fly fish. Never had. Im totally green. Drive south one hour from Seattle to a random small river. Rent my stuff from a fly fishing shop. Owner makes a comment about my Buckeye ballcap and how far I am from home. Head to the river ( 200 yards away) . Pick my spot . Fall down the 50 foot embankment to waters edge. See one human on the whole river. He is eyeballing me like im a dunce. I realize I am a dunce too. My game is a disaster. In 5-10 minutes im tangled. Hate fly fishing i think. The lone human approaches looking kinda pissed. I think i made him pissed. He is now to me. Im silent. He says and I quote , lose the hat and I will give you some pointers. My mind is firing 1000 mph. Thats coach Knight! I think thats coach fucking Knight. ( Had no idea he was passionate about fly fishing) . Long story short. Nicest guy EVER. Spent an hour on and off helping me get it right. He departed shirtly thereafter and from the top of the 50 bank told me to be careful not to fall up tge bank too. On my children......true story. Cant remember yhe year but somewhere around 1995 or so. Godspeed coach. Hope your crushing them in heaven.

There used to be a great fishing show on TV back decades ago called "Fishin Hole with Jerry McKinnis". Jerry and Bob Knight were close friends and he appeared in a couple different episode. It was apparent in those shows how much Bobby really loved to fish. Last time a NCAA men's basketball team went undefeated and won the tournament was the University of Indiana in 1976, coached by the General Robert Montgomery Knight.

I was hyped up and frantically getting my best items ready for him to try....he ordered pancakes!!!

Before i was about to try out for middle school basketball in 6th grade he borrowed a coach knight basketball camp VHS from a work buddy and we watched the different drills and would go out to the hoop in the driveway and practice. My dad said "watch and listen to this guy, he knows what hes talking about". Id have to say i credit bob knight and my dad for helping me make the team. He made the game simple for developing young players in those videos.

Your reasoning is why such antiquated methods still exist. Just because you got great results doesn't mean that this type of coaching works. Your coach might have forced you to do the correct drills. You need a control group to know if it was worked. The truth is this type of coaching is antiquated. Research has shown you could accomplish a lot more by utilizing on both positive and negative reinforcement. Second, Americans' fascination with sports and athletics is backward. It's glorifying the pursuit of athletics over intelligence.

I also have a wonderful fish story concerning Bob Knight. I was fishing perhaps the same stream from the river bank when I heard something behind me. I turned only to see Sasquatch bearing down on me. I jumped into the river to escape certain mauling and possible death. Immediately upon entering the river I encountered the Loc Ness Monster. I had no escape route and prepared to meet my maker. Suddenly I heard a noise from above. Looking up I saw a rapidly approaching ufo. I could see Elvis Pressley was piloting the craft while Bob Knight was also l ooking out the ufo window looking very concerned about my predicament. Bob Knight started yelling, cursing and screaming and waving his arms frantically until he scared off both Sacquatch and Loc Ness monster. Elvis and Bob both waved at me and flew off. I gave them both a big thumbs up. This just all occurred about 3 weeks ago.....

Back in the day - most all coaches were like Knight. My junior high coaches were maybe worse ha... He's like Lombardi - he believes his God given duty, and RIGHT, is to do whatever is necessary to get the absolute best from his players - no exception.

I think he already realized here how important life is. How important his legacy is. He was real bad to Jeremy S. In that one interview. The head butting incident. All the bad things. He had one thing. His passion for kids here showed tremendously. If didn't love kids, he would have never went on to be a coach. He showed his true heart here. It's not for the game of basketball, but his passion for kids to be the best they can at the game they love. Basketball.
