Boals sure made it known after the game about all of the team’s injuries.

“I told them after the game, the one regret I had about coaching this team was we were only together for nine games."
To me this is by far the most infuriating thing a coach can say. It happens overcome it.
I agree.
Boals seemed less engaged this year and less happy in general. I saw a lack of coaching passion in him which is disappointing.
You just proved you never met former president Nixon with that comment.
Sometimes your comments are inscrutable.

He's going back to one of his three jokes. You don't know Dick.

Let’s say you have a sales position at a company and you have a sales call and you don’t get the sale. Then your boss or one of your colleagues says “ you just didn’t want it bad enough.” Or you didn’t get employee of the month or year. “ I see you brooding and not paying attention to your work”.

Boals and his players want to win every game and they try their best. Every game there is a winner or loser.

+1, but the Ping Center Warriors think losing is a lack of effort.
