I was reading an archived copy of Mark Cuban’s blog last week<\/a>. (see wikipedia.org\/Mark_Cuban<\/a>)<\/p>\n

This was after I watched Game 6<\/span> of the NBA Finals 2006<\/span> on a bus enroute to a client visit. The first game I watched since Michael Jordan left. But more on that later, now let’s go back to Mark Cuban’s blog.<\/p>\n

There are very interesting points he mentioned in his blog which I’d like to CP. <\/p>\n

Substance comes from detail. Luck comes from detail. Winning comes from being willing to do the work on the details. Learning comes from investing in details.<\/span><\/p>\n

…<\/p>\n

Aggregate data from a lot of games over a lot of seasons, and all of the sudden you have a database with value.<\/p>\n

Once you have information, then you can add brainpower and try to do things better.<\/p>\n

Once you have information, then you can start to define excellence and strive for it, measuring your progress along the way.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\nCool blog. Cool dude.<\/p>\n

Back to that game. Miami won and I think everyone knows that part already. But watching an NBA game after years… five… four or even more I’m not really sure. All I recognize is the NBA logo, Shaq who’s now a little old and slower but wiser… Payton and two more players whose names I could not remember. <\/p>\n

I recognized Pat Riley though.<\/p>\n

What amazed me is the camera movement though. It was seemingly hovering, rotating and being in the best angles. It was far far better than when I was following game after game way way back before.<\/p>\n

Hmm… can we implement that on database systems. Like a sort of hovering software\/sentient being or something that really monitors how data travels, bumps and all. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
