I mean, I see where he’s coming from too, but god damn. They haven’t played for a week and they’re world class athletes. I suppose there may have been added risk for injury, but he also could have been injured in the first minute.
It’s fine. Nothing bad happened. They got some fucking cardio in and won by 29. Squash it for Christ’s sake.
Of course, now Tempo is gonna harp on it all fucking night. Great.
1) “he could have been injured in the first minute” makes no sense. No one is saying “bench him for the whole game.”
2) “squash it for Christ’s sake:” I almost certainly wouldn’t have said another word about it until you and judge Judy lost your minds over it.
3) again, not until you lost your mind over it. God forbid anyone criticize the coach for doing something potentially stupid.
