Hi Captain ,
Nice to meet you & thank you for your message.
Absolutely,always nice to speak with someone who's interested in basketball,tactical side Is my favourite part,bc small details matters so much, i believe team make victories, not the coach. That's why teams has many assistants.
As a NT coach I started step by step, from the lowest rankings national teams ( with all the respect Iran) They average team In Asia,the community Is very small, was hard to find managers who willing to train their nationality players, but you always must find the way how to motivate them that It will be benefit to them too.( same like in real world - find peoples desire and motivate them. )
In my first season with Iran,I believe we were close to medals,In last minutes lost vs China ,never know how could end up if won. At the end we finished at the 3rd position In group and get qualified to World Cup repachge.
Is always not easy to fight for any national teams against China,Hong kong, Taiwan. My benefit of this experience,I scouted pretty well Asian Continent and I know them already, as I'm 8seasons In row working with national teams I familiriesd with all countries,pretty much all countries scouted, got my database with skills of some NT players,I track this for future reference and benefits for myself, either is NT or own club.
With England we had good periods, season 54 as the fourth team , in front of Germany,Bosnia,Estonia we acomplished go to next phase. Be between best 12 Europe countries and gain more experience was fantastic experience,I believe right decisions brings victories,I love small details in basketball, every small thing I think at least twice.
Compare Iran and England,we had 8x times more users, that means our NT level off course Is higher it makes life much easier, when you can message your ideas 100+ people, and where you could communicate only with 14+.
I have my standards, no matter at what level National team coach you're all players must reach same level - maximum of his potential. I've been reaching out every single manager about their prospects ,possibilities to join NT,even if they not reach the level In NT,they have great home grown player and useful for their own club - I love helping people , that's my personality always helpful and generous.
You need to make connection with community and the people who believe In your dreams, also make their dreams come true - every GM wanna have their player In NT. You must follow consistency that's the only key you could accomplish your goals, and be patient. Absolutely communication with U-21 coach, have the same vision and go same path, we creating future, some BB users follow your guidelines so you must be an example to others.
Consistency,dedication,connection with coaches, community is the only success to reach the goals , and the goal for me is only trophies.
In my opinion In NT must be best 18 players, the combination of experience and future. Those who gaining EXP in matches and In future will become leaders. I will tell to everyone very clear and honest statement - Only thing I care In scrimmages Is how to gain more experience for future generation, I don't play for statistics to prove I won all friendly matches ( off course is effect your ranking) But all is matters when Is championship starts, scrimmages is for try some different tactical things, add the younger prospects who deserved their minutes.
With all respect to Tunjevina, I don't like force things in advance while I'm not elected and do things In Advance,first elections ,than group phase scouting, and then only think about first opponent match.
For myself Is the only game matters Is the day I play,If you think about your next game,or next phase you could be easily beaten, focus just on the week game.
Step by step!
Good luck In elections gents.
Regards,
Vicka
