Someone already sort of said it, but I want to reiterate this point:
Listen to people like Adam and Paul. If you have the opportunity to be paired with a veteran, experienced, successful, "powerhouse" team, listen to their coaches. They have been doing this a long time. They will have a strategy in mind, and it will probably be a fantastic one. That said, if you think that they are wrong, don't be afraid to voice your opinion: just be prepared to be told that your opinion isn't necessarily correct. This doesn't mean that they aren't listening, it just means that they have the experience necessary to win, and there isn't often time to argue. When in doubt: go with experience.
