Here is an example for you: Whose basketball knowledge would you follow first?

One person who is 38, and have followed basketball for 33 years, played basketball his whole life, played college basketball, overseas, and been around NBA players/organization for about 15 years, coached Select AAU basketball for 10 years and have access to inside information from players and whatnots.

Second person is 22 years old, never played basketball other than jr. varsity in high school, is playing intramural basketball in college, loves basketball since he was 8, loves the internet, and have the gift for gap with basketball..

Let's hear what they have to say, and it might be easy to decide "Whose basketball knowledge would you follow first?"

For example:

.... if the 38-year-old offered up one incredibly dumb statement after another like the list I posted earlier, the answer as to who has better hoops smarts is obviously going to be the 22 year-old.

Age and exposure to the game doesnt carry with it any guarantee to insight whatsoever. You can be older and still be clueless. Even though you might even think you know it all.
