#20 Šarunas Jasikevičius - Insisting on Maximum, Percentages of Success, Golf Obsession & More

#20 Šaras: Šarunas Jasikevičius is a successful Head Coach at Barcelona and his career is basically just getting started now but he already brought home domestic titles in Lithuania as well as Spain. As a player he has a rich experience between a variety of cultures, starting from the time when he left Lithuania at the age of 17 to live in the US, going from High School to later on joining the University of Maryland. When he returned to Europe as a player, his success just took off exponentially. He played in 7 different countries, in-between he also spent some time in the NBA as he played at Indiana and Golden State. Šaras won a long list of championships across Europe and is most certainly a future Hall of Famer. All the domestic titles and awards are too long to list, most notably would be that he is a four time Euroleague champion and was the FIBA Eurobasket MVP in 2003 when he became European Champion with Lithuania. In today's episode Šaras and me talked some about his playing days but we spent most of the time discussing different coaching aspects, especially the transition from being an assistant coach to becoming a head coach and the challenges he dealt with early on. I was curious about how he prepares for the first speech in front of the team, first practices and what he looks for the most, what expects from his assistants before and during games as well as how much information is really valuable to him. He also spent time talking about the best environment for a prospect to succeed, what he thinks is absolutely necessary. I also sprinkled in some philosophical questions that helped shape the podcast in a different way, especially him talking about percentages that help the team succeed in the end as well as the importance of admitting to mistakes. Golf was also a subject, you can feel his obsession with the sport just by listening to him.
