Are you implying American coaches are too soft? Fucking obi and iq are thibs whipping boys. He always yells at his players, especially the young ones. Coach pop also shits on his team when they aren’t playing well through the media.
This is why Bilal will be the best player in the league in his prime. He isn’t soft like your average nba player.
Imagine these guys coaching Ben Simmons
Evidence of the catastrophic European shortage of chill pills
NBA coaches did this more before one of them almost got choked to death
these clips are hilarious
It’s very different in Europe. Coaches are demanding and scolding you from the very moment you start playing. Everyone know’s it’s not personal and they’re just trying to get the best out of you.
“Fuck You Gigi Datome” is an all time great quote.
“In your eyes you’re good guys. Fuck you EVERYBODY” LOL
We’re talking about tactics
It’s fun to imagine that this is how David Blatt got fired from the Cavs. Probably nowhere close to what actually happened, but it’s funnier this way.
“Why he say fuck me for?” – Gigi Damonte
Steve Nash got fired because he was incompetent, not because he yelled at the players
NBA coach would be like, “um hi guys, can we try a little on defense. I know we like to just play offense and jack up threes off ISO’s all day, but uhhhh a little defense would be nice. Im sorry I just had to point it out. Thanks”
Pop is from Europe, confirmed.
In other words, there are lots of Draymond Green in europe.
This wouldn’t work on NBA players though – they make too much money to reasonably take something like this. Even in the US, pro coaches can’t get away talking how college coaches talk.
Europeans in general are more demonstrative. NBA players have to much power to put up with that shit.
Reminds of of Samy from Kitchen Nightmares. “You fuck with me, I fuck with you!”, “I’m the gangster, not you!”
NBA players get away with way too much, but don’t mistake this for smart, intelligent, effective coaching. I was coached like this growing up (in the US), and it’s not beneficial. You live in a state of fear of making a mistake and getting chewed out, and you play super hard and intense, thus it gets some short term results, but you sacrifice a lot of growth and development when you trap your players in this mindset. Also, this isn’t so much European coaching as “old school” and “undeveloped/primitive” coaching, because European football doesn’t use these techniques.
“They are taking shots from 9 meters, God fucked you”
This is dumb and not a good management technique. You can’t use this in basketball or at any job really and expect to get the best out of your people. You’re just motivating them to be scared of being publicly embarrassed by you which works to an extent, but you’re not going to get the best out of everyone.
They will all be playing in fear, in effect not to fuck up, not to lose, not to get yelled at.
Edit: Can anyone really say that the best way to motivate players is to yell at them like this? What is this the 80’s?
I’m pretty sure Spo is like this lmfao
So euro coaches act like toddlers a lot more than nba coaches. Lol.
I mean this is just inefficient communication in the time it takes you to wear yourself out screaming you could’ve gotten out few sentences of actually constructive feedback
It’s not about screaming at players. It’s about game planning and execution. Go study how Pesic game-planned against the Canadian guard defense. How he rode players that got hot when a weakness was exposed. Coaching an elimination tournament is very different than coaching in a league where there’s always another game to fix things.
I mean we saw cosches screaminb in nba , personally think it’s kinda childish
Zeljko is an all-time basketball genius that can only be compared to the likes of Pop, Riley, Phil, Auerbach, etc.
He would be perfect in the NBA, if he could stay calm, but he can’t. He wouldn’t even interview for an NBA job.
> It was the story of a job interview with the Detroit Pistons in 2002, after he won the EuroLeague with Panathinaikos in Bologna. **Obradovic looked the other way upon hearing the word ‘interview’.**
> “There was never any concrete contact. There was a time when an NBA executive called me because a team wanted to do an interview with me,” he recalled.
> “And I told him: **’I’m giving interviews to journalists. If someone doesn’t know who I am or what I can do, it’s not serious.’**
> Maybe I was wrong, but I am the way I am, and I am very happy in Europe. Now I can’t ask for anything more in life”
Fuck you Gigi Datome.
NBA coaches not named Gregg Popovich*
Going to adopt this as my new personality at work. These nurses and nurse’s aids I work with are not going to know what hit them!
“In your eyes, you’re good guys.”
“Fuck you everybody!”
I need that on a Nike shirt.
Yeah, because American players are pampered divas. They don’t allow their coach to coach them, they make too much money and are catered to. Players can have their coaches fired if they don’t listen to the players. Many US players weren’t raised around authority, and have a hard time dealing with it.
Sengun was on a Turkish interview saying he talked to Silas last season and told him he wished to be yelled at or cussed out when he makes a mistake because that actually made him a better player. Instead, Silas just gave him the passive-aggressive treatment. It’s partly diff culture and also the fact that star players have a complete hold over their teams in the NBA. Coaches always get fired before the star player is traded.
It makes sense that the NBA can’t do that. I’m pretty sure a coach trying this would either get fired because people were so mad about it or they would get slapped by a player before it was over with. I really don’t think we have the kind of culture where you can scream in a grown man’s face and keep getting away with it
Its not about being soft or not its just culturally you can’t do that unless you’re trying to start a physical confrontation so you’re really playing with fire depending on where someone is from they might be taking that on a different level

Onradović is my spirit animal
Holy shit this is hilarious
LMAOOOO “Fuck you, Okay! FUCK YOU GIGI DATOME!”
Yeah, such a vastly superior method. 🙄
Here is another one
