Culture is an oft-mentioned buzzword in the NBA. Like adaptability and forward thinking in the business world, it’s an ill-defined concept, thrown around as a cure-all for losing franchises, a justification for teams that win. What is culture and how much does it really matter? That’s the subject of today’s Blazer’s Edge Mailbag.
Dave,
I hear alot about culture as an ingredient for success. Do the Blazers even have one? How important do you think a team’s culture is to winning? Should we be worried that no matter how many players we get they’re just going into the same pile of mediocrity?
