For NBA G League coach Brian Shaw, staying prepared is the best game plan, be it in life or any sports game. “Failing to prepare is preparing to fail,” he said.
“If you call yourself a professional, whether you’re a lawyer, a doctor, an actor, there’s a certain responsibility to that. You have to put in your time and work. So, if you shortcut anything as a professional, there will come a time where the game will shortcut you because you didn’t do everything,” added Shaw.
Shaw, together with NBA G League player Jalen Green and NBA Champion Glen Rice, were the featured guests in Axa Philippines’ NBA Republika Playoffs Party.
Hosted by Nikko Ramos and Tin “Suzy” Gamboa, the virtual event featured video segments including the Republika Dunk Off, Playoffs Predictions, and an engaging discussion with a panel of powerhouse coaches on their basketball career highlights, coaching experiences, and how to bounce back from adversity with the right game plan.
Joining Shaw during the NBA Republika Playoffs Party were ABL head coach Jimmy Alapag and PBA head coach Tim Cone.
