Thanks. So here's where I was going with this...
So Miles had inefficient & low-energy practices that lacked self-evaluation/scouting (example in your post). We all heard many times about player X was playing because of "doing well in practice". So the basis for personnel decisions was flawed in some cases. In fact, a Miles perception of that player (based on??) was then the primary factor. Hence the "favorites" issue. Not only that, if poor self-evaluations are being done, then that also affects play calling in games along with personnel.
The point I wanted to make is...
When CEO opened practices to the media, the primary reason is probably not to curry favor or promote himself for the non-interim job but because he is acknowledging there is a big issue here. Closed practices is one way to prevent this issue from becoming a clarion call for change... or heads.
Ineffecient practices with little or no self-evaluation/scouting leads to poor player development, poor game preparation, and... of course... poor execution. It's the foundation for execution in games.
If we are going to see immediate (3 games or less) improvement on the field, this is where it will come from. Not necessarily play selection, but execution will improve and players will be in a better position to succeed on a play-by-play basis stemming from better prep. It may look much different soon if we're lucky.
^Great stuff^.
These are the kind of posts I enjoy reading on TR.
