I saw a quote last week from Vlade mentioning in passing Augmon working with players in Vegas and wondered if I'd missed something. Hopefully, he'll be doing a lot of one-on-one defensive work with the young perimeter guys.
When I look up Harding on wiki there's not too much info regarding anything other than her playing career. It lists her as a scout for the sixers last year, but there's not even a little blurb about her experience with that so not sure what to expect. Hopefully she's a solid coach.
I remember Augmon as a player. Long-ish career but unremarkable. Looks like he has some extensive coaching experience up to this point though.

It would be useful to know the different specialties of these coaches and how they are going to coordinate with each other to help these players progress. I just wonder about too many cooks in the kitchen. I like the emphasis on development, I'd just like a little more info on who does what.
Besides what the others said, make winning plays stands out too.
You may have heard things before that sound real simple like share the ball for example. Doug says sharing is caring every once in awhile. You may have a decent shot, but ball movement can get a much better shot for the team.
Setting real screens, taking the defensive drills seriously. Talking while on defense. Knowing your teammates. Taking a charge. Blocking out. All of the little things.
I'm not sure I agree with that quote. A player can untap his potential and be a successful player but that doesn't necessarily mean that the player will have a successful career. The individual accolades would be present but the overall winning may not be if the player is not put in the right situation.
