One more thing, Angel.

That means putting players into scenarios with different limitations called constraints to stimulate the unpredictable environment of an actual game, whether it's the number of steps they can take, the area of the playing surface from which they are allowed to maneuver, or even the weight of the ball that they're using.

Players are repeatedly told to overreact.

Overcome restrictions that they can't predict to accomplish a task.

And the last piece of information I want to give to this angel, this method is not like obscure.

It's catching disciples.

Guess the names that are into it.

Victor Webinyama.

Hmm.

Kelsey Plum basically said like her career was changed by it.

And I think one of the best case studies of this is Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Kenny Atkinson literally read Sarama's book and said, we're going to bring this guy in to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

This is how we got the assistant coaching job for the year.

We're going to bring him in and he's going to teach us and help us implement the CLA system.

And they made him an assistant coach last year with the Cavs.

And guess what?

The results are undeniable in that the Cavs won 64 games.

the most in franchise history.

Kenny Atkinson was named coach of the year.

And, you know, perhaps this method helped influence that.

And that, that is the guy that the Portland Fire are bringing in as their head coach.
