Ep 2030 Are You Running Up the Score Without Meaning To?

3. Blowing a Team Out (on the right end) https://teachhoops.com/ · https://coachingyouthhoops.com/ · https://heysammi.com/ TITLE Are You Running Up the Score Without Meaning To? SUBTITLE A thirty point lead is a coaching problem, not a victory lap, and garbage time can be the most useful stretch of your week. SHOW NOTES Winning big is more complicated than it looks. Press too long and you are that coach. Call everything off and your bench players learn that their minutes do not count. Coach Collins talks through handling a lopsided lead with class while still getting something out of the last quarter, and the conversations you owe your starters, your reserves, and occasionally the other coach. What we cover: The point in the game where you change what you are coaching What to call off first, and what is fair to keep running Making the end of the bench feel like real basketball instead of a formality Why your reserves need a standard too, not just playing time Respecting the other bench without embarrassing your own kids This week's challenge: Write down the lead and the clock where you will change your approach, so you are not deciding it in the moment.
