Charging 100 racks a pop to teach these fools how he "mastered" the post game. I think all the above mentioned players have gotten worse in offense.

Who has actually benefitted from his teachings?


Problem with your thought process is that when someone attempts to teach you something that they have already( Dream played soccer growing up-so his footwork was natural)...you have to "reteach" YOURSELF over and over again...working with Dream for 1 month over the summer is NOT going to change your NATURAL habits UNLESS that person continues to work on what they learned OVER and OVER again..this goes with ball handling, free throws, jump shooting coaches, etc..they can show/tell you the proper mechanics and how they did it...but you have to do this OVER and OVER when your are not around them in order for the teachings to work...most players when pressed or uncomfortable will naturally revert back to what they know and what they feel comfortable with..so it's not Dream fault that these guys don't take the teachings/knowledge and DEVELOP/PERSONALIZE/TRUST them until they become natural movements for themselves....

apparently olajuwon played soccer growing up which helped with his footwork.

he's said in interviews that the dream shake is a variation of a soccer move. can't teach that nimbleness to dudes stuck in their ways.

Just for example, it takes boxing for 2years to understand basic footwork, drill it in your head and muscle memory. I imagine for basketball (as well as the time it takes to integrate the training with the 20+yrs of training you've had already), it takes more than 2yrs, let alone one month.
