The man said "At halftime we didn't know if we should have changed our defensive approach." Yes, when you're getting clobbered by 30+ points you probably should've changed your defensive approach long ago 😂😅😂😅
But if the team isn't executing the defense until the very end of the half, why give them completely different orders that they will likely then not execute either?
@@SaddestAlice you don't know that they will likely not execute a different order if you give it to them. But you do know that they are not executing the current order that you are giving them. The bigger question is why continue with the same orders that are obviously not working. Giving new orders is called "MAKING ADJUSTMENTS." Coaches do this all the time if they're any good.
If you’re going to get whooped that bad, I would figure that would make you mad enough to at least start to play more physical and aggressive. The fact that the Sparks only had 10 fouls the entire game really speaks to their lack of competitive spirit in the game. If you’re getting that embarrassed on your home court, you might as well start using those fouls up by banging into people and showing some fight. Embarrassing game all around.
@@RustyLou18 I was surprised Macdonald wasn’t playing. Yeah, she might’ve helped. But I just can’t over how SOFT this team plays. They were regularly giving up layups rather than at least trying to block shots and maybe getting fouls as a byproduct-it’s not even that bad if you foul at that point given how bad the game was going. You had starters get 0 rebounds, 0 free throws, 0 fouls.
"What's the mood like after a 35 point loss?" WTF kind of useless question is that, John? Were you actually expecting an answer? Way to shut down the people you are trying to interview and show that you put no actual thought into your job.
Bad coaching period! Change approach as soon as your plan has proven not to be effective. Olympics are done, and get back to the issue at hand. Why are Sparks #10? Get to work, watch film, and get back to basics.
