Preparation is Brian Shaw's key for his gameplan


One of the segments that took place in the NBA Republika Playoffs Party is the AXA Game Plan, which featured an appearance by G-League head coach Brian Shaw.

The Ignite head coach believes in preparation as an essential for any game plan to work, whether on the basketball court or in real life. He shares, "Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. If you call yourself a professional, whether you’re a lawyer, a doctor, an actor, there’s a certain responsibility to that. You have to put in your time and work. So, if you shortcut anything as a professional, there will come a time where the game will shortcut you because you didn’t do everything."

Joining him on that segment, which was made possible by the NBA's official insurance partner in the Philippines, AXA Philippines, are Barangay Ginebra head coach Tim Cone, and Alab Pilipinas head coach Jimmy Alapag. It featured an engaging discussion on their respective careers, coaching experiences, and dealing with adversity.

Co-hosted by Nikko Ramos and Tin Gamboa, the NBA Republika Playoffs Party served as the means to celebrate the start of the NBA postseason after it was interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. The party contained numerous video segments that included appearances by former NBA champion Glen Rice and Jalen Green of the Ignite, and was streamed on Facebook.
