In this week's episode Slappin' Glass sits down with  Coach Ryan Schmidt, the head coach of the London Lions, to explore the foundations he implemented in leading London to a championship in his first season in the British BBL, detailing the experiences of taking over a new team and the challenges that came along with it.

From establishing an identity for the Lions to creating an environment where players could feel successful, Coach Schmidt shares his strategies for building a winning culture. We explore long DHOs, pitches, and hard cuts to create opportunities for their bigs, as well as the importance of breaking down the game into smaller segments and keeping a consistent message and vision throughout the season. And as always, the trio have a blast discussing PNR efficiency, retaining knowledge, and much more during the fun, "Start, Sub, or Sit?!"
