I got no problem with hard-nosed coaching but if you're going to go in like that do it in the locker room after the game. Embarassing your players like that isn't going to make them play hard for you, and it isn't attractive to top recruits either. That dude is off the hook.

I think more coaches should dig into the players more often. And I don't see anything wrong with the pushing to the sidelines; in football they grab the helmet. As long as you don't try and square off with them, or push them in that way, it's all ok. To me, more players need that, and far too many are coddled growing up.

Also, you have to do it in the heat of the moment or else its useless. What are you gonna do? Run laps? Hell, while on the field, most players tend to forget about the audience anyway, so it's not really an embarrassment.

Miss me with that "it's just part of the game" nonsense. I know a lot of people accept it but that type of behavior isn't ok. That may work for some athletes but I remember how nerve-wracking it was for myself and most of my teammates to get yelled at and then worry about making mistakes. Coaches treating me like garbage didn't make me perform better. I did my best when coaches would correct my mistakes and explain how to do it right, but without all that extra shyt. You can be a tough, hard-nosed coach without treating your players like garbage.

I'm coaching right now and, even though I'm kind of tough on them, I never yell at my kids like that or dress them down in public. If they make mistakes I correct them and keep it moving. You know what happens? They have confidence and they aren't afraid to make mistakes. You can criticize players and help them improve without going overboard and being a dikkhead. These coaches have too much control over their athletes.

If that was my son there is no way I would tolerate anybody talking to him like that. I don't care what title they have. This type of behavior from coaches shouldn't be accepted. I don't care how often it happens. Doesn't make it right.

fukk that...call me soft or whatever insults you want but these kids aren't out here getting paid to do this shyt but you want to put your hands on them and dress muthafukkas down in front of cameras? fukk all that. And of course dude got power over him. Who you think controls the renewal of his scholly? Hell, they don't treat pros like that. Dude had every right to go Bane on that bytch ass nikka

c/s

To add on, the kid ain't being soft. He was actually saying shyt back to the dude. What everyone saw was the face of a kid trying to figure out what's more important. His sport/scholarship/education or his pride. I've been there before and I guarantee you he wanted to elbow his coach in the face.

Not all coaches are bullies, but a lot of them are. If that dude did that on TV then just imagine how bad it probably is at practice.

I watched the game live, I found it very unnecessary for Sean Woods to put his hands on the kid. They played a tough game and played their hearts out, and the kid had just fouled out. That behavior coupled with his comments about UK earlier in the week made it difficult to be on his side. I felt bad for the player, he was so close to tears. :cry:

That is the most ridiculous logical leap I have ever read. They have plenty of power of millionaires. And Sprewell is now out of the league and BROKE so coach got the last laugh.

Shh happens everyday and as a person in a position of authority I have no problem getting in the buttocks of someone who is plucking up. Catch a friendly during combat? :rudy:. Yup happens all the time. If you knew anything about the military you would know that people get chewed out everyday. The amount of butt chewings a day is astronomical, yet the amount of "friendly" accidents is low. Poor example. I would tell you to smarten up but what would be the point?

what makes you think spreewell is broke? because hes not on tv?

he turned down nba deals. didnt he have his own rim company or some chit?
