Sam Mitchell's Guide to Coaching Basketball

I got this idea from a13x's post. List a coaching strategy of Sam Mitchell's. We'll see how many we can get:

1. Missing an open shot is better than making a contested one.

 

2. When there is a hole in the defense, don't address it until they miss from that spot, after making 10 in a row.

 

3. Go inside- kick it back out.

 

4) give it to bosh and hope for the best

 

5) Never call time-outs, because THE BEARS CAN SMELL THE MENSTRUATION.

 

6) matt bonner was super cool, and we need him back so we can put him in at the end of close games....?

 

7) its the players fault!!!

 

8.) Head bands win games

 

This is from tonight's game:

9) Put Calderon on Pierce on one of the most important possessions of the game.

 

11) Don't double team a player until he has at least 78 points.

 

12. If your team is performing poorly, blame Jerome Moiso.

 

13. If yelling doesn't work, resort to physical violence.

 

14. The rare time timeouts are called take out a drawing board and start doodling on it not even knowing what you're talking about and babbling while the players watch the cheerleaders.

 

15. When the team continues to struggle on defence, continue to stress how important it is to shoot a hudred shots.

 

15. When your team is getting blown out, take off your glasses and pretend your thinking.
