Interesting.
One minute he was out of control volatile and the next he calmly walked off the court in his black tight pants. There is a mental health term for those kinds of emotional swings— labile.
I mean the sad dude did not have to go that bezerko to get thrown out— if that was his objective.
O well …Andy Kennedy served as a signpost on the road no one should take— especially his bb players.
Did you notice that one of our goofy tunnel-fans (wearing blue-rimmed glasses) waved bye-bye right in Andy’s face? That seemed foolhardy. lol
Yeah, I did. AK truly looked violent, shoving his own staff member and laying hands on one of his own players. Bobby Knight’s tantrums always seemed half-serious, half-performance. AK looked unhinged. Yikes.
He did but I think deep down he knew the game was slipping out of their control and maybe if he got a T he'd fire his guys up and stop the game enough to slow down our momentum. Crazy thing is feel like it did the opposite because DJ ended up hitting the four FT's giving us a lead which was huge.
Since Kennedy doesn’t do that on a regular basis, his players were confused, not fired up to win anything.
There was a Facebook video a fan who was right behind their bench took. It showed the disarray of his players after the ejection. His players were also angry —-pushing each other and shoving.
Coaches should not resort to those means. If they want to get thrown out do it with more class. Violence is never classy.
Hey, Andy! Pierre Henderson Niles says hi!
(Sorry. Couldn't resist!)
