Re: I disagree, he has blossomed under McVay and would be great

Interesting take, S9. We hear McVay say that often. Not putting his players in a position to make a play.
It sounds humble and what’s the correct approach. But that’s what schemers try to do whether they take the blame like McVay does or blame the players like most every other coach.
It’s schemidis. If I could just scheme out of what I do so well, I can outwit my opponent. But when the opponent has a bead on your scheme and you have to go with what you’re not comfortable with, then that schemer is forced out of the world of scheming.
And that’s the biggest challenge for genius schemers to overcome. They’ll meet an opponent that throws the kitchen sink at stopping the scheme to the point of leaving exposed vulnerabilities, but the schemer can’t let go of the scheme.
And then he impales himself on his own petard.
