I know the casuals will be like “wtf is this shit” but this 905 team was incredibly well balanced and COMPLETELY bought-in for one reason - Jerry Stackhouse.
From top to bottom this team had very solid talent. Running out lineups with Brady (your favorite Queen’s MBA), Sheehey, Bruno, Toupane, and Tavares. Even had some hometown love with Negus on the roster.
Showed how much mentality matters in the G-League, because there are far better players that would’ve failed in this situation.
Stack would always keep them humble, but celebrate them by leaving the card with one of the white boys when the team goes downtown.
There’s an open gym episode about Stack that covers a bit of the experience. It’s very grounded and allows for your mind to reset and appreciate and respect basketball and the life of the players. It’s great to recenter your expectations when the average comment/content today is just about being inflammatory.
