Basketball Coach vs. Baseball Manager

[Ramen]

The sports are so different that its just a weird argument.


Would you say a pitcher only has 1 skill?

If you have one skill in nba you won't make it.

Every white corner three shooter says, "Hi."

Like who? There is not that many people in the league who all they can do is shoot. Off top of my head all I can think of is Novak, who gets 0 burn.

No, I shouldn't of said that. But, there is so many different ways to be good in baseball. 10 (DH) positions where one of them, pitching, has like 5 different positions onto itself. This can cause there to be "more talent". To play in NBA you there is not close as many ways to get to the league as well as have different unique talents that shine.

listening to you talk about what you think baseball managers do might be more interesting.

oh i mean i have some guesses based off watching the sport and reading moneyball. but thats it.

a decent google search found this purchasable article

the problem is is that this shit probably isnt thought out and getting into this journal is probably more about who you know than what you know

Bigger impact....definitely basketball. Too much of the sport requires that in order for the whole team to do well that multiple players must rely on other players to do well. A portion of this is handled by the coach. Not as much in baseball.
